Future Reveals He Called Off Engagement To Ciara And Denies Cheating Rumors

In a new interview with Huffington Post Live, Future is clearing up rumors that Ciara had dumped him for cheating with his stylist.
Future:
“I feel like 95 percent of relationships end with cheating, but me and her relationship had nothing to do with cheating. We grew apart. When you the man, you wanna make certain decisions for yourself and she wanna make certain decisions. And I feel like the best route for me is to make more music, to go back to Atlanta and go back to my roots. Sometimes the lady don’t see what you see. That was a hard situation but at the end of the day it wasn’t about that. I called off [the engagement] long before any cheating rumors came out.”



For now Ciara has just reacted by posting a few tweets telling Future to focus on being a good parent.

6 Things Guys Do Wrong When Trying To Get The Lady Of Their Dreams

So you have been trying to get her but haven’t? Yet you still like her. Fear not for these tips would help you get her with ease.

1. Approach her like a Queen:
Guys nowadays tend to hiss or make funny sounds to get a girl’s attention. You should realize that she isn’t a dog,so walk up to her to talk and don’t make irritating gestures.

2. Quit stalking:
When you desire a thing you must summon courage and work to get it talk less of desiring a being,a lady for that matter. Don’t stalk a lady you like because you are shy to talk to her, be a man and gear your balls into action.

3. Don’t tell stories:
When you gain her attention, don’t tell her stories every guy tells,make your package different and unique. Go straight to the point but don’t be domineering while conversing with her.

4. Avoid boasts:
Ladies are irritated by men who boast about their material or intellectual acquisition, you don’t have to tell her the amount in your account or how many cars you own or how high you’ve gone in academics; keep it real,simple and be humble.

5. Endeavor to be truthful:
Ladies get curious and ask questions; try to be truthful in answering them,it’s better to lose her to the truth than a lie. Ladies are quite smitten with truthful guys because they are rare in this modern age

6. Appreciate her:
Let her know you are grateful she spent a lil time with you(no matter how lil it is/was. Guys don’t do this because they don’t know it makes the lady happy and it makes her eager to spend more time with you.

Okay! Wishing you the best with that lady of your dreams.

FMC Accountant kidnapped in Owerri

DARE devil kidnappers appear to be having the upper hand in Imo State, as no day now passes without reports filtering in about kidnapping or armed robbery.
The latest kidnap victim is the wife of the Chief Accountant of the Federal Medical Centre, Owerri, FMCO, Mrs. Ngozi Iroegbu.
Mrs. Iroegbu’s kidnap came barely 48 hours after the Bureau Chief of the News Agrncy of Nigeria, Miss Chidi Opara, was picked up in Owerri, on her way to her residence at Uratta, Owerri North local council area of the state.
The story making the round was that the woman was kidnapped by armed hoodlums, from the family’s residence at the Redemption Housing Estate, off Port Harcourt Road, Owerri.
It was also gathered that the hoodlums forced the woman into their waiting car and sped away to an unknown destination, while no contact had been made with the grieving family at press time.
Meanwhile, the striking labour unions in FMCO, have expressed shock at the way the Federal Ministry of Health was allegedly “taking sides with a chief executive officer, whose record of financial recklessness is marginally heartbreaking”.
The House Unions, who made the allegation in a press statement to refute all the issues raised by the Ministry, also said that they handed over photocopies of evidence of the Medical Director’s financial illegalities.
Vanguard recalls that apart from the Association of Resident Doctors, ARD, the National Association of Nigerian Nurses and Midwives, NANNM, the Medical and Health Workers Union of Nigeria, MHWUN and the Nigeria Union of Allied Health Professionals, NUAHP, have been on strike for over one month, to press home issues that affect the collective harmony of the citizenry.

The Public Relations Officer of the Federal Medical Center, Yola, Mallam Muhammadu Dodo, told journalists that 31 corpses were evacuated from the scene of the blast.

He said 22 victims were currently on admission at the medical centre.

Dodo, however, urged the general public to come to the aid of the victims by donating blood as some of them were in dire need of blood.

The Chief Medical Director of Yola Specialists Hospital, Dr. Bala Saidu, said the dead among the victims had been transferred to the FMC, Yola.

Adamawa State Public Relations Officer, Othman Abubakar, said so far, the command had a record of 29 deaths, including the two suicide bombers, who launched the attacks.

On Friday, the police cordoned off the scene of the explosion and diverted traffic to adjoining streets as business activities in the area were paralised.

U-20 W’Cup: Ghana, hosts New Zealand advance, Argentina fail

Ghana as well as Austria, Ukraine and hosts, New Zealand, on Friday advanced to the second round at the ongoing FIFA U-20 World Cup on a day of shocking results.

The biggest shock was the elimination of six-time champions, Argentina, who were condemned to an early exit by the host nation’s 5-1 defeat of Myanmar.

This was on a day in which Austria and Ukraine both advanced to the last 16 of the competition tagged ‘New Zealand 2015’’.

It was an unforgettable night for the All Whites, who came from a goal down to swamp the Asian debutants and finish on four points in Group A.

This gave them every chance of advancing to the knockout phase as one of the best third-placed teams.

Ukraine topped the pool after easing to a 3-0 victory over the US, who finished second.

The Argentinians, who went into the day needing to win and for the New Zealanders to fail to do so, were on the front foot for most of their match.

But they could not find a way past the impressive Tino Casali, and they had to settle for a 0-0 draw in Wellington.

The South Americans’ first-round exit was their first since Portugal 1991, while Austria found themselves in the last 16 for only the second time in their history.

Top spot in Group B was claimed by Ghana, who beat Panama 1-0 to take their points tally to seven.

The game had seemed destined to remain goalless, but it was settled by Emmanuel Boateng’s late solo effort.

On their part, Ukraine were once again indebted to the razor-sharp finishing of Viktor Kovalenko, who scored all three in his side’s victory over the US.

The Americans tested Bohdan Sarnavskyi in the Ukraine goal but were very much second best as they relinquished top spot to the eastern Europeans.

On Saturday, Group C action will see Senegal taking on Qatar at Hamilton, and Colombia against Portugal at Dunedin.

In Group D, Serbia will face Mexico at Dunedin, while Mali will take on Uruguay at Hamilton


OPEC maintains current oil output


The Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries has decided to maintain current production levels despite calls from the industry to push oil prices higher.

OPEC took the decision to keep the “same” output target of 30 million barrels per day, Saudi Arabia’s Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi, said in Vienna on Friday.

He dismissed rumours of disagreement between poorer members, who are believed to have been pressing for a drop in production at the gathering of the 12-nation group in Austria’s capital.

“The ceiling is the same. You will be surprised how amicable the meeting was,” Naimi said after the meeting.

Angola, Ecuador, Iran, Iraq and Venezuela had all appealed that the organisation, which produces one-third of global oil output, increases output for higher prices.

OPEC is pursuing its plan to maintain market share and exert pressure on high-cost US shale producers.

The decision leaves OPEC’s official collective target at a level where it has stood for more than three and a half years.

However, OPEC, which comprises nations from Africa, Latin America and the Middle East, is actually pumping 31.2 million barrels per day, due to increased supplies from Saudi Arabia and Iraq, according to International Energy Agency estimates.

2face Rejected N100million and Offer to Contest For House of Representatives Seat During #VoteNotFight

The Finale for the 2Face Idibia led Vote Not Fight Campaign was held on Tuesday, 19TH of May, 2015 at Primal hotel in Ikeja GRA. It started with an internal review session with members of the Vote Not Fight campaign team and partners and ended with an interactive session with the media.

The ‘Vote not Fight’ campaign which was an initiative of The 2Face Foundation and Youngstars Foundation is a voter education campaign targeted at the Nigerian Youth. Its major goal was to sensitize Nigerians to shun violence and embrace dialogue before, during and after the 2015 elections. Asides from regional tours and grassroot engagements across the country, there was a special musical video and PSA that was shot with support from Spinlet and a lot of social media activities.

The general consensus at the review session is that the campaign was a success. Various speakers cited the minimal incidence of violence across the nation during the 2015 general elections unlike elections in the past as a major reason reason. Additional reasons also include findings from a research carried out by the National Democratic Institute which shows that the Vote not Fight campaign reached sixty eight million (68,000,000) Nigerians through the media.

The Transition Monitoring Group (a coalition of Nigerian societies who observed the elections) also reported that the ‘Vote not Fight’ was prominent in the seven hundred and seventy four local governments in the country. The hash tag #VoteNotFight was a trending topic on Twitter on the days before, during and after the 2015 elections.

According to 2Face Idibia, one major reason for holding the review session was to recognize the positive side and short comings of the campaign with a view to re-enacting it before the next elections. He also revealed how he had to reject an offer to contest for a House of Representatives seat and numerous offers for shows (partisan and non-partisan) which ran into about One Hundred and Fourteen million naira (114,000,000). He closed the session thanking Nigerian media houses for offering major support and ensuring the success of the ‘Vote not Fight’ campaign.
