The Operatives of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of Lagos State Police Command, have apprehended an 18 -year-old boy, Segun Adeyefa, for allegedly selling bar of soap as mobile phones to unsuspecting members of public in traffic.

The suspect was arrested by the RRS men on routine patrol of Ikorodu Motor Park yesterday at about 19:50 hrs, while trying to defraud a young man at the motor park.

Upon his arrival at RRS’s Headquarters, the suspect confessed that before he was caught on Tuesday, he had duped one person of N3,500 who wanted to buy the phone.

He noted that he was lured into the fraud after he was duped through a similar means about a year ago.

"My action was prompted when I was swindled by two guys about a year ago by this way. I had intention of buying a phone but unknowingly to me it was a cut-to-size bar of soap just looked similar to a phone shape... The two guys approached me on my way to work, then, I was learning a plumbing work somewhere around Ikorodu...  I bought the phone which was advertised to me as ‘London used phone’ for N2, 500... As I left the place, I checked the phone I bought, to my surprise, I discovered it was a soap I bought for such amount... That very moment I promised myself to revenge by doing same to the people,"  he revealed.

Tyga's Ferrari repossessed over failure to pay lease payments..(photos)

Our reporters, reports with photo proof about Tyga's ferrari being repossessed while he went luxury car shopping with Kylie Jenner. A friend had to come pick them up at the car dealership and take them home after his car was driven away by a repo man. In their words,

"We're told Tyga hopped in his fancy red sports car Tuesday with Kylie and drove to the Bentley dealership in Calabasas. Little did he know that while they were checking out new whips ... his current one was about to get swiped. 

Sources on the lot tell us the repo man showed up armed with a spare key for the Ferrari, jumped in, started it up and headed down the nearest freeway. We're told Tyga missed a couple of his lease payments, and the lessor wasn't taking any chances. Don't worry, Kylie and Tyga got a ride home from one of his homies."

The Man that Claims to Make a History On Meeting His 5k Facebook Friends,gets replies from Mark Zuckerbeberg, as he plans to meet him in Lagos

Back in May, LIB reported  about an Abuja based man, Gaius Chibueze, who said he wants to make history by being the first (and probably the only) person in the world to meet all his 5000 Facebook followers one-on-one . Gauis then claimed he was determined to achieve this feat and had a roaster for the dates his followers can meet him in different states.

After news broke that Mark Zuckerberg had arrived in Lagos yesterday, Gaius shared a screenshot of a supposed chat he had via Facebook with him, where he requested for a one-one-one meet.
Although the billionaire Facebook founder didn't agree at first due to his busy schedule, he eventually gave a slight nod of approval when Gaius promised to get 100,000k shares to raise awareness on the social media site.

However, Gaius hopped on a night bus and should have arrived Lagos by now. The 100k shares hasn't also been achieved yet.

Singer Chris Brown arrested at home on assault charge

POLICE SWARM CHRIS BROWN'S HOME

Chris Brown and the Los Angeles Police Department spent much of Tuesday locked in a surreal standoff at the R&B performer's Tarzana home over allegations that he threatened a woman with a gun.
The woman alleged Brown pointed the gun at her and she fled in fear, then balked at signing a nondisclosure agreement before escaping from the singer’s property.
For hours, LAPD officers — along with an army of reporters — stood outside the house as Brown refused to let them in. During the impasse, the 27-year-old took to social media and posted a series of videos in which he railed against the police and said he was being unfairly demonized.
This latest peculiar chapter in L.A.’s annals of celebrity justice ended late afternoon when Brown was taken into custody by police, who said he would be arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.

WEIGH YOUR WORDS BEFORE YOU SPEAK

it occurred to me without doubt, that spoken words has power bestowed in them immensely, just passing by this afternoon to grab some items for myself along the street, I meet this woman and her daughter having a feud ,to my notice I was able to observe that it was a mother and her daughter within the age of twelve   holding her mum to ransom, it was like an eye saw to me cos I have not experienced such before so I took some few steps to their direction , already from afar I noticed that the mum was scolding her and the little girl was like holding the mums wrapper so firmly like bonds that wouldn’t let go any external force, when I got close to the scene not quite funny though but I was able to ask the mum what the matter was but she couldn’t say anything to my hearing, I only heard her daughter screaming to her topmost voice saying; you must tell me who my biological dad was, I paused and thought a while, the word “WAS” sank so deeply in me so I asked the mum why the was and she told me that her dad  died when she was four, I felt her plight though that’s not the matter really at hand then, I asked the young girl why are you holding your mum to her wrapper, she told me “that her mum was scolding her due to hostility established between them, she also said that her mum called her a bastard and the word really made her to behave in a lunatic manner  and that’s the reason  she held her mum on her wrapper cos she was deeply  annoyed” as she stressed.

MAKE THINGS HAPPEN

Recently I took time to understand that everything lies within us, cos we are been gifted of different potentials, which when explored we can do immensely in any area of our specialization. I don’t cast my hope on any flesh to do something for me why? cos you will always get disappointed moreover I don’t want in a situation someone will be telling WIZY, if not for  S/he I will not be able to attain to my present peak today, however there is no reward attached to the receiving hand .follow your instincts and do what you can to help yourself nobody can help yourself except you by doing what you knows best .

48 LAWS OF POWER

THE   48   LAWS OF POWER

LAW 1

NEVER OUTSHINE THE MASTER

                                                 

Always make those above you feel comfortably superior. In your desire to please or impress them, do not go too far by displaying your talent or you might accomplish the opposite-inspire fear and insecurity. Make your master appear more brilliant than they are you will attain the height of power

                                                  LAW 2

                            Never Put Much Trust in the Friends, Learn How to Use Enemies

Be wary if friends-they will betray you more quickly, for they are easily aroused to envy. They also become spoiled and tyrannical. But hire a former enemy and he will be more loyal than a friend, because he has more prove. In fact, you have more to fear from friends than from enemies. If you have no enemies, find a way to make them.

CONCEPT OF EXAMINATION MALPRACTICE !!!!!!

INTRODUCTION

    It must be stated without doubt that examination malpractice have assumed alarming and disturbing rate at various levels in our school system. Many patriotic Nigerians are disturbed by the tread; since it could lead to a stage where certificate obtained by our education institutions will not be recognized by other countries. Education is believed to be the last hope of the common man in any country if it is allowed to be destroyed by omission or commission. It will be a disaster for the overall development of the nation and also the future of our children will be stake.

MY HOBBY IS LISTENING

I am wisdom; a very good listener. I exactly cant place my fingers on how I came upon this habit or peculiarity of listening to people with as much intense concentration as can detect  their intentions, inclinations, and unvoiced dispositions. But I have listened well and long enough to deserve the aforementioned  appellation no doubt. Just today alone, I have had over 10 conversations with different people during which I talked for very few minutes, while my interlocutors rattled away whatever time was left for our conversation, revealing their character, personality, and undoubtedly; folly!
In this long suffering and tedious job of listening in which am presently engaged; I have observed a few things which only very few people, I am sure, are aware of. One is that, the surest way to look wise is to shut one’s mouth. Take what happened to me and one of my case studies only a week ago. Michael Ford, a friend of mine, whose acquaintance I gained by being in the same swimming class with him, looks as cute as Chris Brown, has a stare as stolid as that of Bill Gates, and walks in such philosophical manner as would easily make one regard him as Thomas Aquinas.  His mien earned my respect within our first few seconds of descrying each other and am sure everyone else held him in mountain high esteem. However, I happened to fall into conversation with handsome Michael that same day and the  conversation went like this.
“Mike, you look too handsome to be true”, I said, knowing full well that nothing sets a man at ease like flattery or compliments and to get a person to converse with you, you need that person at ease.
“Hahaha! wizzy, you wont stop flattering me.” He replied . But I knew the flattery still took its desired effect.

THE RESULT I SAW ON THE BOARD WASN'T MINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dear wisdom, we’ve been philandering around earth for the past few months. On the safe wings of the pen, we have flown into houses as prestigious as the Government house, and have flown low at other times, into houses as impoverished as those whose occupants are servants to peasants. All these, wisdom, were done to bring us some relief  - relief  from pains which were so non existent that thinking about them now, I earnestly wish I could resuscitate, habour, and preserve them; if only they would save me from the firm grip of pain’s toughest pangs that strangle me presently. And so, now, we have met with true grief wisdom, maybe we should fly again; not into some castle; nor into a hut; but into old wisdom’s acutely sensitive skin – which has been mutilated of late by a disastrous fall.

Before now, wisdom, we have been students at the University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus. Our hearts, no doubt, should and was marvelously grateful to mother nature, who in fulfillment of every promise she made, brought that to pass. After the celebration and all, wisdom, we devoted ourselves to our studies – or at least, bent ourselves in no other direction than  that, allowing ourselves only such intermittent rests as was necessary to forestall fatigue. But the more we cultivated that farm, the more the truth emerged more glaringly before us; we may have chosen the wrong profession, wisdom!

Somehow, every single thing said in class was so boring that even though my gaze was always fixed on the lecturers, my ears weren’t.  And even when my ears suffered themselves to grant  audience to the grim utterances of these scholars, my mind never rested upon them. I remember that whenever I found myself in class, I always started counting  the number of minutes left before the lecturer would leave. The happiest moments of my doleful days would be those moments in which I would watch a lecturer leave the class – while the saddest moments were often those moments in which I would watch a lecturer walk into class.

As if contempt of class wasn’t heinous enough,  I realized how puffy, foolish, and self - conceited my classmates were, and made it a point of duty to be unlike them. This meant that since they were truculent, it was my duty to be amiable. Since they were proud; it was my duty to be  humble.  And to place the final nail on my coffin; since they were always in the know; it was my duty to be out of the know! All these slowly worked their effects on me, and my G.P. while I relaxed, placing my hopes on mother nature, whom I believed, would inevitably  prevent the worst from happening irrespective of the importunity of my lunacy.

The days wore on, and my indisposition to my academics grew more fervor, so that on the very day I was to check my first set of results; I couldn’t help doubting even the ability of mother nature to spare me of the so many Fs I was sure I really deserved. As I walked to the faculty office, my eyes kept their stolidity, and so did my mien. But deep within, things were flushing, blushing, and washing.

I checked the first course, elementary mathematics iii, a four unit load course, which I wrote purely out of grace, and not out of work, and was relieved to see a B. I did this for the next 6 courses and was very thankful to Mother nature, who had spared me of the disgrace I deserved and placed Bs and Cs on them all. However, as fate would have it; I couldn’t find the reg No on the last score sheet which was that for Use of Library. I searched and skimmed the whole wall for it but was out of luck. At this stage, it wasn’t just that I didn’t see my Reg No; the problem was that the Reg No I saw which looked like mine had a grade that COULD NEVER EVER be mine.
I left for my hostel; hoping to catch some rest, visit the faculty again and see things better. But when  I returned 3 hours later, the reg No that looked like mine turned out to be really mine and the grade that was there ----if only I could, through my advanced Information technology capabilities turn it around – was an f.
After measuring the reg No against the Grade with several instruments, and wondering at the possibility of there being a typographic error on the score sheet, it finally dawned on me  that the Reg No was mine, and so the was the grade. I had fallen; and resounding was the sound of my fall.

WIN YOUR GIRLS HEART

she'll sleep in your arms and wake in same;
kiss you in public & feel no shame
she'll love your faults; and cherish your tat
What will a woman not do once you've won her heart?

Your wishes are laws; your wants; a blessing
Your frown invokes laughter; your trifles teach a lesson
she;ll bear your beating like a tough old cat
but thats after you've won her heart

Amongst friends; the topic is always your name
Her friends turn bores; & other boys;lame
she;ll sleep with you on a bed or a mat
but that cant be; till you've won her heart

for as long as you are near; her day is bright
hint of separation; and her face turns white
a woman's love can burn to scary watts
but first, my son, you must win her heart

HOW TO BECOME A NIGERIAN SUPERSTAR MUSICAL ARTIST

The Nigerian music industry has proven itself to be more lucrative than all other branches of entertainment in the country. The field is so rewarding that some artistes are getting not less than 1m for an hour on stage. The kind of convoys, mansions, and big star friends of various
Nigerian artistes today show us just how fecund the field is. Been a music addict, I’ve played all sorts of Nigerian songs and know exactly what buttons to press, to achieve success in the Nigerian Market, but since I am more disposed to writing, than I am to music, I have decided to lay out these tips here for super star wanna bees

No matter how funny you find this piece, just know that it is the absolute truth, borne of intensive and fastidious research and therefore, deserves a try from you, if you are interested in becoming a super star.

Get a fast beat

You’ve probably heard people saying that to create good music in this country, you’ll need the services of dexterous producers like J Martins, or Terry G. But am telling you now that this is not true. These acclaimed producers will only give you beats we all can improvise without stress so you might want to keep the money you’ll pay them for something else. Now, how do you get your beats? Its simple. All Nigerian hit songs have one basic beat- and I mean ALL NIGERIAN HIT SONGS. This beat is no other than Awilo – or makosa

Of course, you’ll have to change the tempo or speed to achieve a variation. Along the line, you might also end up creating something totally different from Awilo’s beat after hours of working on it. But the main thing is this; you must start with makosa beats if you are bent on making a hit.

Lyrics

This one couldn’t be easier , believe me. You can create the lyrics to a Nigerian hit song by simply resampling the lyrics of another artiste, who of course, copied his from someone else. The truth is, your lyrics must talk about how you were poor and your enemies said you would never make it, and how you are now rich and girls are chasing you here and there. Just listen to 10 nigerian songs right now and you;ll get the picture.

Its also okay to repeat anything you want to repeat. Infact, a recently released song has the word “Etihi, divea” as its only lyrics from beginning to end and the song is actually a hit song today. So long as your makosa beats are still running; anything can go!

Video

For some funny reason, Nigerians don’t seem to like videos shot in their own country. Hence, its important that you shoot your video, or at least, pretend to shoot your video outside the country. Don’t worry, just shoot the video in a room here in Nigeria, and before the song begins, have the video editor write “Shot in Carlifornia, USA”. That would do- I mean, no one is gonna sue, you know. The content of the musical video shouldn’t give you cause for headache either. Get yourself lots of fake dollars, and hire the services of white prostitutes too – it will help solidify the idea of your video being shot abroad.

If your mind is so fertile as to invent a new dance step, then things couldn’t get any better. The dance step shouldn’t be anything worth getting a degree for. You could simply jump up and throw your arms wide. Believe me, if you do that well enough, you would be introducing a new dance step which will of course, help make your music sell faster than anything. I mean, how else did we get a dance step like azonto?

Marketing

There is a little problem here. The Nigerian music user doesn’t care about the lyrics of your song. He doesn’t care about the rationality of your dance step. He doesn’t care about your personality. He doesn’t even care about your name. however, he also doesn’t care about the genuinety of the cd of your song which he buys and the cd marketers themselves don’t give a hoot either. This means that your music could sell 1 million cds and only 5 copies of it will be original. Now, that’s a real problem.
Trying to correct this phenomenon is like pouring water on stone, with the intention of softening it. We Nigerians simply jump up to dance to any music we hear, and whoever sang it can go to hell for all we care! Matter of fact, top Nigerian artistes have given up the idea of making money through selling cds. Also, looking at the type of shit you are selling, you cant expect any reasonable company to use you for adverts, do you? (except globacom of course, which I think have begun to count their losses and wont hire anyone again) The only way to make money is to attend shows and if you pull all the stunts above , there should be enough shows to build you a house, buy you many cars, and get peeps like Rick Ross on your list of friends, you know what I mean.

Finally, Nigerians will forget you as fast as they noticed you and its just the truth. Your nonsense will sell, but it wont sell forever. Hence, you must plan for your post-super star days while you are still a star. Don’t bother opening a studio as that might not help very much. Its most advisable to invest in landed properties as these tend to stand the test of time.

And as for the girls, enjoy the most beautiful ones that throw themselves at you while they are still doing that because in a matter of months, some new super star will emerge and no one will remember you ever had a voice.
