Rihanna celebrates W Korea‘s 10th anniversary by gracing not one, but three covers for the March issue. The Bajan beauty gets decked out in Dior and takes over Koreatown in the stunning shoot by Dennis Leupold. The pop goddess, who just scored her 26th top 10 hit with “FourFiveSeconds,” turns the streets of downtown L.A. into a catwalk, modeling some fierce looks including a satin Dior waistcoat and white tuxedo jacket as she poses in a hair salon, restaurant, and on the sidewalk. The magazine is not the only one celebrating 10 years. It’s been a decade since Rihanna signed her first record deal. Her friend Ciarra Pardo surprised her with cupcakes and balloons to mark the milestone.

(Daily Trust) 1. Alhaji Bamanga Tukur His disastrous tenure as PDP’s national chairman was the biggest game changer for the PDP from which it might never recover. Bamanga’s tenure also coincided with the period when three major opposition parties were consolidating into one mega opposition party, but the chairman failed to recognise the emerging threat. Instead, he encouraged the Party Leader to settle personal scores within the party. It was a cover for Bamanga to also settle personal scores of his own. He suspended a state governor for refusing to answer his phone call; hewatched askance as seven governors formed a faction called ‘the new PDP’ (nPDP), and he didn’t care a hoot when 5 governors jumped ship and joined the APC. 2. Chief Edwin Clark As soon as Dr. Goodluck Jonathan rose to the presidency, this Gowon-era Information Minister created for himself a position hitherto unknown in Nigerian politics, that of the president’s ethnic godfa...

They include buying houses fo...

Spokesperson of the PDP Presidential campaign organization, Fani-Kayode says former president Obasanjo asking someone to tear his PDP membership card while he stood there and watched was painful and tragic and a spit on the face of the PDP. He said this in a statement released in Abuja today. Part of the statement below .. "Watching our party membership card being torn up whilst President Obasanjo was standing there and smiling was painful and tragic.  This is a party which he helped to build and on whose platform he was elected president for eight good years. The truth is that President Obasanjo is far better and far bigger than that. Such behaviour is provocative and unacceptable. He is free to leave the party but does he have to spit in our faces by tearing up our party card in public and before the television cameras? This knee-jerk reaction is most unlike President Obasanjo and it is very insulting. It is clear that he has burnt all the bridges and that he has left us...

Find the Defense press statement below... The Defence Headquarters has noted the remarks of a former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo as reported in the media stating his views on perceived state of the armed forces and the roles being allegedly played by the military in the nation's political process in recent times. The leadership and cross section of the military believes that the former President and retired General has every right to be interested in the actions and fate of the military.

It is however noteworthy that most of his utterances lately indicate an attitude of playing to the gallery or indulging in politicization of serious national security or military affairs. For instance, the comments credited to Chief Obasanjo alleging that the postponement of the General Elections was to enable President Jonathan to use the Service Chiefs to plot a tenure extension is to say the le...
