Photo: Former President Jonathan All Smiles Inside Abuja Bank Yesterday

Since the expiration of his tenure, the immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan, has never ceased to wear a heartwarming smile which has now become more or less like a signature.

He was spotted in a First Bank PLC located at Gwarimpa in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, on Monday, July 13, 2015 and some of his fans seized the opportunity to take an amazing shot with him.

It was learnt that he went to enroll for his Bank Verification Number, BVN, as he was away while the apex bank gave the June 30 deadline which was later extended till October.

He returned to the country on Tuesday, July 7, 2015 and several Nigerians took to Twitter social media to feed him with the happenings in the country with a hashtag, #GejWhileYouWereAway.

Jonathan left a legacy for which he has been heralded both by national and international communities.

It would be recalled that Jonathan conceded defeat at the 2015 general elections and saved the nation an impending bloodbath if he had done otherwise.

Kylie Jenner: Standing By Tyga, Convinced Blac Chyna Framed Him with Mia Isabella Scandal!

Kylie Jenner is standing by Tyga in the wake of his sex scandal, showing no signs that recent events are taking any toll on their romance.

Moreover, she believes his former fiancee, Blac Chyna, may have framed the rapper regarding his alleged dalliances with Mia Isabella.
 

We can't speak to the accuracy of rumors that Kylie plans to marry Tyga when she turns 18 in August, but if she is, this didn't nix the wedding.

If anything, she's more excited about the prospect than ever.
In the wake of Tyga sending d--k pics to Mia Isabella, that's not a small feat. Dude must have a tight grip on Kylie's mind and (underage) body.
 
That or he's being set up, which he's apparently claiming.

Seeing as there are text messages and naked pictures indicating Tyga had a tryst with the transgender model, this is dubious at best.
 
Still, Kylie Jenner feels her man was framed by the “haters." In other words, the people that don’t want the two of them to be together.

An insider dished. “Kylie’s family is freaking out, after the sex scandal she announced that she is still planning her wedding to Tyga."

"Now she wants to make it huge to prove the haters wrong."
In the end, "Kylie thinks that either Blac Chyna or someone from her mother Kris Jenner’s team is responsible for the sex scandal."

"She totally believes that Tyga was framed and is 100% innocent.”

Given that Blac Chyna trolling Kylie would not be unprecedented, and Kris Jenner is shameless and stops at nothing to get her way?

We're not saying we believe Tyga was framed, or that Blac was involved. But in Kylie's position, you can't rule anything out, can you?

Caitlyn Jenner Shares New Photo, Answers Reader Mail

Caitlyn Jenner has taken the opportunity to open way up once again.

 
"Hi again. It’s Caitlyn. Wow — what a week,” the 65-year-old former Olympian writes in a new blog entry.
“Your outpouring after my note last week was incredible. (In fact, so many of you sent me questions and comments that my site crashed!)

"Even though I can’t get back to each and every one of you, I want you to know that I’m reading your kind words and that they mean the world to me. Here are just a few to get us started."

With that, the stepfather of Kim and company responded to a couple reader questions.

Let's take a look at her revealing answers, shall we?

WHY DID SHE COME OUT NOW AS TRANSGENDER?

I had all of the issues, but I was growing up in a very different time and I had no information. Meanwhile, I had all of my diversions — sports…this…that…married…family.

But after 65 years, here I was right back with the same problems that I had when I was 10 years old and I had to finally do something about that.

WHAT HAS BEEN HER FAVORITE PART OF BEING CAITLYN?

Just being able to be myself. Recently I went on a trip with some of my new friends and I had such a wonderful time. I packed for the first time — as just Caitlyn, nobody else — which is the first time I’ve ever done that. 

I was gone for five days and had such a fantastic experience with all of these girls who have all been through the same thing. We had so many stories to tell. We had so many things that we were all dealing with. It was just truly a liberating experience.
I knew then that I could never go back.

Face of Evil: Man Arrested for Defiling 1-Year-Old Baby Girl

A 30-old man, Blessing Augustine, has been arrested after he allegedly used his fingers to defile a one year old baby.

The Kogi State born Augustine reportedly committed the sacrilege at his Lugbe Zone 4, Abuja, residence where he resides with the parents of the girl.

Reports have that while pretending to play with the girl, Augustine allegedly poked his finger into the baby girl’s gen­ital and in the process, broke her hymen.

The shameful act came to light when the mother of the girl noticed caked blood on her private parts while giving her a bath and reported to her husband who asked her who else had carried the baby apart from her, and it turned out that their neighbour had carried her earlier in the day.

Recounting how the deeds of the suspect were uncovered, Nnamdi Chukwu, father of the baby told Sunday Sun: “The ugly incident happened on June 13, 2015, when I heard my baby crying. I asked my wife to find out why the baby was crying. She said that Augustine told her that the little child saw a chicken and was frightened. But somehow the baby could not stop crying, which obvious­ly meant that she was in pain. So, I checked her thoroughly and saw little blood in her private part (genital).

“Prior to this time, there was a day my wife was prepar­ing for a birthday party and had gone into the bathroom to bathe. Augustine came quietly to our room and carried the baby without her knowledge. When she heard the baby cry­ing, she asked Augustine, who responded that he was playing with the baby, so we didn’t suspect anything.

But on that June 13, when the baby continued to cry in pain, after Augustine claimed that the baby saw a chicken, I took her to Gwarimpa Gen­eral Hospital, where a doctor examined her and confirmed that she was defiled.

I immediately reported the matter at Lugbe Police Station and Augustine was arrested. We have lived in the same compound with him for about one year. I want justice to be done.”

The suspect, who spoke with Sunday Sun in police custody, admitted that he had on several occasions taken the baby to his room to “play” with her, concurring with the account of the baby’s parent about the chicken story, but he denied the allegation made against him.

His words:
“I do play with the little baby.
One day, she suddenly started crying and the mother asked me and I told her that the baby saw a chicken in the compound. I know always carry the baby from the room to the kitchen and play with her. I am the only person that always play with her. I do carry the baby sometimes without the knowledge of the mother to my room and play with her. “But I don’t know what they are saying that I raped the little baby.
I don’t know who fingered (defiled) the baby and raped her.”

Meanwhile, the Commis­sioner of Police in the FCT, Mr Wilson Inalegwu who con­firmed the story assured that the suspect would be charged to court after the completion of investigations into the matter.
