ISIS Responds to US Legalizing Gay Marriage by Killing Four Gay Men

Four gay men were executed by members of the Islamic State following the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide on Friday June 26th.

As was reported by a Syrian Twitter user on a tweet posted on the #LoveWins hashtag and picked up by Gateway Pundit, the men were thrown off the roof of a highrise building in the Syrian city of Deir ez-Zor as a crowd gathered to watch below.

Several Islamists also reportedly sent out anti-gay messages on the social networking site using the hashtag #LoveWins. That hashtag was used by many worldwide to celebrate the ruling same sex marriage.

According to The Mirror, videotaped footage of the executions show that the men were forced to line up atop the five-story building before being thrown over the edge. There are no audible screams from the men as they plunge to their deaths, however spectators can be heard gasping as the bodies descended from the sky.

ISIS has long been critical of homosexual individuals, and has publicly executed men over their sexual orientation in the past who are exposed as gay by its “flirting squads.” Earlier this month, the group released graphic footage of its members dangling gay men over the edge of a building before dropping them to their death. The men are then stoned if they manage to survive the fall. 

Change Indeed: President Buhari Ordered Arrest of Wife’s Younger Brother Over Extortion

President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered Nigeria’s security agents to arrest his brother-in-law for allegedly extorting money from an unnamed businessman, a close confidante of the Nigerian leader told SaharaReporters. He said the suspect, named Musa Yola, was the immediate younger brother of Mr. Buhari’s wife.

Our source disclosed that the suspect, also addressed as “Alhaji Yola,” reportedly received N300 million from a businessman after promising to provide his dupe with political access to secure an oil block from the Buhari administration. According to our source, Mr. Buhari personally ordered last Monday night that Mr. Yola be produced before him in handcuffs in the company of the businessman he duped.

After telling the businessman that he was stupid to part with such significant cash when he should know that he, Mr. Buhari, would not participate in fraud, the president ordered agents of the State Security Services (SSS) attached to Aso Rock Villa to thoroughly investigate the scam. He also ordered the SSS operatives to ensure that the businessman recovered his money from his brother-in-law.

An SSS source told SaharaReporters, “Alhaji Yola has refunded the money to the affected businessman.” He added: “Alhaji Yola has been released on bail.”

Kanye West Blames Himself For Mother's Death in New Interview

Kanye West takes a lot of flak from the press, and sometimes it's well-deserved.

Kanye's ego is a bigger than his wife's famous backside, and the man spews some truly mind-boggling word vomit on a regular basis

.

But say what you will about him, Yeezy definitely has a sensitive side. In fact, he sometimes comes off as downright tortured.

No we're not talking about the notorious temper that leads to Kanye beating up paparazzi. We're talking about the fretful family man and the wounded artist that sometimes surface in between rants about how much Beck sucks.

Take, for example, West's recent comments about his departed mother.

  

As you may know, Donda West passed away in 2007 following complications from a plastic surgery procedure. 

In an interview with the UK's Q magazine, Kanye says that he blames himself for her death.

"My mother," Kanye said when asked if he had sacrificed anything for his fame. "If I had never moved to LA, she'd be alive. I don't want to go far into it because it will bring me to tears."

Clearly, the death is in no way Kanye's fault, but in the past he's suggested that he feels responsible for bringing his college professor mother into the limelight, which in turn (according to Kanye) made her feel pressured to perfect her appearance.

Kanye memorably paid tribute to Donda with the song " Only One," and he credits her with bringing him the melody and lyrics in a dream.

Kris Jenner to Get Revenge on Caitlyn Jenner...By Marrying Corey Gamble?!

Ah, Kris Jenner.....

First we thought Kris and Corey Gamble had broken up. Now it looks like the May-December couple is very much still (or back) together.

Even weirder, Radar Online is reporting that Kris and Corey are getting married, Weirder still, sources are claiming that Kris' motivation isn't her love for Corey, but her desire for sweet, sweet revenge on her ex, Caitlyn Jenner.

 

“Kris wants to marry him, but not because she actually loves this man,” one insider says. “She is doing this to spite Caitlyn rather than because of her love for Corey.”

Yes, if you didn't already know - Kris and her ex have beef. 

Sure, Kris says Caitlyn is an inspiration now, but that's only after weeks of shade-throwing and claims that Caitlyn misled her when they first got married.

Plus, there's a rumor that Kris is very jealous of Caitlyn, and considering how much Kris works for the kind of attention that Caitlyn is receiving just by being herself, we're inclined to believe it.

“Kris knows that having a televised wedding at her age to Corey will make her the center of attention once again,” the source says.

“Kris told all of her family that she feels that Corey is the one, so no one will be surprised when this actually happens.”

Again, if this were anyone other than Kris, we'd consider the idea of getting married as an act of revenge to be completely ridiculous...But you can never underestimate the Momager.

Why I killed my babymama and reported myself to the police – Lagos Carpenter

Michael David, a 31-year-old Carpenter who resides in Ojodu area of Lagos, has murdered his wife, Oyinyechi Dennis and reported himself to the police.

Read his narration to the police via Vanguard.

“Oyinye is the mother of my son, although I did not marry her legally but when she became pregnant for me, I went to her aunty and uncle who she was living with for introduction.

’We then started living together. But we had a misunderstanding and then she packed out of my house.

“On Tuesday morning, Onyinye came to my house, I thought she just came to visit me but I later saw her mood and knew something was wrong. She confronted me with an issue she heard. She said I was spreading rumour about her living a wayward life style and not sleeping at home.

‘’She asked me if I was behind the rumour and I told her yes, that I had noticed it since she left my place.

‘’Out of anger, she picked up a bottle, broke it and threatened to deal with me and we began to fight. While we were fighting, I overpowered her and took the broken bottle from her. She rushed again to where the knife was and picked the knife.

‘’Out of anger, I collected the knife from her and mistakenly stabbed her in the stomach with the knife, shortly after she died.

“After my action, I sat for sometime thinking of what to do, whether to run away or go to the police station to report myself. I then decided to report myself at Tolu Divisional Police Station.

A sister to the deceased who gave her name as Chika, claimed that the issue that led to her sister’s death started since the victim moved back to the family house.
She explained:

“When Onyinye moved her things back to the house. I asked her what was wrong, and she said nothing, that she does not want to continue leaving with Michael.

“Even a week before this incident, when Michael came to visit his son in the family house, immediately he entered, Onyinye walked out of the house. But I was surprised when he called me on Tuesday to inform me that Onyinye is dead and that he was at the police station.

‘’I immediately rushed down to the police station to find out if it was true and that was where I heard the whole story.

“What was even more surprising is the fact that on that same day,  after the incident, he called one of our neighbours to tell my other sister to bring his son which she did but after sometime, he returned the boy.

‘’Maybe he was thinking of running away with his son but God did not give him the courage to do so. All I just desire now is for the police to complete investigation into the matter and let the law deal with him accordingly.”

Same-Sex Marriage Now Legal in the USA

Today is a memorable day for America.
In a historic ruling, the U.S. Supreme Court has declared that same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry nationwide, Bloomberg reports.
According to the report:

Voting 5-4, the justices said states lack any legitimate reason to deprive gay couples of the freedom to marry. Justice Anthony Kennedy joined the court’s four Democratic appointees in the majority, bringing gay weddings to the 14 states where they were still banned.
Gay couples “ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law,” Kennedy wrote. “The Constitution grants them that right.”

The ruling is a legal landmark, on par with the 1967 Supreme Court decision that guaranteed interracial couples the right to wed. It punctuates a period of sweeping change in the rights of gays, coming only 11 years after Massachusetts became the first state to allow same-sex marriages.

Customers And Bank Workers Exchange Blows Over BVN Registration

In the huge rush to beat the Bank Verification Number enrollment deadline which is June 30th, 2015 however, customers of an old generation bank engaged in a brawl with members of staff of the bank in the banking hall in Enugu State.

Customers were gripped by fear over the reports that their bank accounts will be frozen if they don't enroll before the deadline.

The insistence on the BVN by bank cashiers before attending to customers also increased such fear.

The development led to an unusually large turnout of customers at banking halls in the Coal City and this has been happening since the beginning of the week.

However, the matter took a different turn at an old generation bank, located in the Independence Layout area of Enugu on Thursday.

Trouble started when security personnel and operations staff of the financial institution asked some customers to go outside the banking hall to wait their turn.

About 100 customers, who had been at the bank since 6am, had trooped into the banking hall when the doors were opened by 8am.

In a bid to maintain order, the bank officials asked the first 10 among the customers to fill the BVN forms and join about 30 others who did not complete the registration the previous day.

The other customers were told to leave the banking hall, and wait outside. But the directive did not go down well with the customers, who protested, causing commotion in the banking hall.

The situation degenerated into a full blown fight when some customers violently resisted an attempt by the bank officials to lead them out of the banking hall.

In the ensuing fracas, a young man engaged an armed riot policeman, who was attached to the bank, in a fight, while another customer exchanged blows with a bank worker.

The situation further escalated as some customers, who wanted to capitalize on the confusion to move to the front of the queue, were physically resisted by those who were already there.

Normalcy eventually returned after other bank security personnel, who were outside, stormed the banking hall to overpower the violent customers.

The branch manager of the bank later announced that the bank would open on Saturday to continue the enrollment.

The branch manager, who did not disclose her name, complained that the customers had waited until the last minute before coming to enroll for the BVN.
