War at Benue State House of Assembly as lawmakers exchange blows


Lawmakers at the Benue State House of Assembly on Tuesday literally turned the hallowed chamber to a boxing ring after engaging each other in what could be tagged a legislative show of shame.

The brawl, DAILY POST learnt broke out following the election of Barr Adanyi of the (APC Makurdi south) as Majority leader.

Apparently not okay with Adanyi’s election, Hon. Martins Aza (PDP Makurdi North) objected, saying they were 16 in the house so should have the majority.

Argument ensued between two lawmakers in the process who reportedly descended on each other, thus exchanging deadly blows.

However, the timely intervention of other lawmakers present prevented the lawmakers from causing more harm.

In a related development, the state governor, Samuel Ortom has nominated 13 persons to be screened by the lawmakers as commissioners into his cabinet.

Sad: DELSU Student Commits Suicide After Her Fiance Dumped Her After 7 Years


Pandemonium and tears at the weekend enveloped Abraka community in Delta State when a 26-year-old microbiology student of the State-owned University (DELSU) identified as Evelyn Mogekwu allegedly committed suicide after being jilted by her fiance.

Reports said the end of the seven-year relationship traumatized the girl as all plans to walk down the aisle failed to materialize.

Sources said the girl was in high spirits in her hostel but her mood changed dramatically and she became dejected after her fiance called her on phone to declare that their relationship was over.

She was said to have bought some drugs, claiming she was having a head ache and went into her room, leaving a message for roommate that they might not see again.

Few minutes later, her roommate who sensed something terrible was going on, raced into the room and found her lying lifeless on ground.

She raised an alarm that attracted other students to the room, but before help came the girl’s way, she had given up the ghost.

Confirming her death, some senior police officers at the Abraka Police Division, who did not want their names in the print, said they recovered particles of drugs on the ground beside the deceased, adding that her roommate is currently being detained for interrogation.

Could O.J. Simpson Really Be Khloe Kardashian's Father?

 Khloe Kardashian O.J. Simpson Father thumbnail
Even Robert Kardashian Sr. believed Khloe could've been fathered by O.J. Simpson, according to a friend of Kris Jenner's late ex-husband.

Robert, who split from Kris in 1991, allegedly voiced this to daughter Kim and second wife, Jan Ashley, in the late 90s.

“Robert said, ‘Oh my god, he’s so black, he has curly hair, so does Khloe. Oh my god, you think it’s him?'” Ashley tells Radar online.

Kim, who was still just a teenager at the time, agreed.
“Kim actually said, ‘It’s gotta be him,'” Ashley claims.

While never confronting Simpson, his good friend, Robert always believed his youngest daughter wasn’t really his biological spawn.

He also never took this to Khloe because he didn’t want to hurt her. Also, Ashley says, Kris Jenner would never confirm the rumors.

“He couldn’t get it out of Kris,” Ashley recalls.

Robert and Kris were close with Simpson and his wife, Nicole Brown, in the '90s. Rumors of an O.J.-Kris affair occurred even then.

Last December, Simpson’s best friend, Tom Scotto, said Jenner and his pal had a fling, and admitted that he could be her father.

“I can see a resemblance [between Khloe and O.J.]. Anybody can see the resemblance if they look close enough,” he said.

Sean "Diddy" Combs was arrested yesterday morning, but if you're thinking the hip hop mogul got wrapped in something even remotely gangsta (like, say, beating up Drake), think again

Mr. Combs' son Justin is a defensive back on the UCLA football team, and apparently Diddy is in full helicopter-parent mode these days and has taken to attending the team's practices and workouts.

Witnesses say things started to go awry at yesterday's strength and conditioning session when an assistant began shouting at Justin.

This didn't jibe with Diddy, who proceeded to get in the coach's face.

Things escalated from there, and Combs' is now facing assault with a deadly weapon charges after allegedly attacking the coach with a kettlebell weight.

As of Monday evening, Comb remains in custody at UCLA's on-campus jail.

“No one was seriously injured and UCPD is investigating,” said UCLA in a statement. “Combs is expected to be transported to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Inmate Reception Center yesterday evening.”

This is the second violent incident that Diddy has been involved with in the past six months. Back in December Drake was hospitalized after allegedly scuffling with Combs outside of a club in Miami.

There's no word on yet on when Diddy will receive a bail hearing and be released from custody.

Uganda Most Ugly Man Welcomes a New Baby (Photo)

A man crowned the ugliest man in Uganda has become a dad for the eighth time. Godfrey Baguma, known as Sebabi - which means 'ugliest of them all' - suffers from a rare medical condition giving him his distinctive looks.


The 47-year-old married his second wife Kate Namanda, in 2013.
Since then the couple have had six kids - two of Sebabi's nippers come from his first marriage which broke up some years ago.

Speaking to KFM, he said: . “I caught her cheating with another man and I assured her our relationship was over.
“She liked me because of my money, but people kept telling her that she could do better, so she started eloping with another man.”
Sebabi then met Namanda, who was 18 at the time, through his aunt who played go between.
He said: “I stayed with her four years before her people knew where she was. I didn’t want them to see me until we had a child because they would definitely advise her to leave me.
“She left me when she was six months pregnant but I think she later accepted her fate because she came back two months later.
“I told her that I didn’t choose to look the way I do and that if she feels I am a burden, she is free to live me.
But she chose to stay and in 2013, they held a wedding ceremony that put his hometown Kyazanga, in the Lwengo District of Uganda, at a standstill.
Guests at the wedding had to pay 4,000 Ugandan shillings (about 70p) to attend the reception and see the woman Sebabi married.
Sebabi is a former cobbler who now uses his unique features to earn a living.
He appears at events as Uganda’s Ugliest Man just for people to see him, but he took it a step further by launching a singing career.
He says he doesn’t want to go on stage for people to just stare at him.

Kanye West Honored as VERY Stylish by GQ

Perhaps we should stop making fun of the fact that Kim Kardashian says Kanye West basically dresses her these days.

Because at least Kim is receiving advice from one of the best dressed men in Hollywood.

The rapper was awarded this distinction by GQ in its latest edition, as Kanye actually covers the publication as one of style’s “masters,” according to the magazine.

Joining West as one of the 20 most fashionable men in Hollywood include such attractive and talented stars as Ryan Gosling, Jay Z, Pharrell Williams and Bradley Cooper.

It's nice to see Kanye earn such an honor because the guy really does need an ego boost these days...
