PHOTOS: Flood Takes Over Alpha Beach Area of Lekki

Residents of the Alpha Beach area of Lekki are expressing frustration at the flood situation currently plaguing the region.

Several sources state that it is a recurring problem, and a solution is yet to be found.

A resident in the area recently took to Nairaland to share thoughts and photos about the issue:
“Residents and villagers of Alpha Beach area of Lekki are currently battling flood. This is a yearly reoccurance and this years is the worst it has been. Houses are being submerged in water, people are made homeless and cars are stranded.

Year after year residents in this environment cry to the Government for help but it keeps occurring. All the businesses on the beach are now under water and are currently unemployed. A country as strong as Nigeria yet we cannot handle the annual flood crisis.

Billions of dollars are spent on the Eko Atlantic City all in the name of a Mega City or is it luxurious living yet the poor are suffering.

I hope the office oqf the Governor of Lagos sees this or better still The President sees this. This is not change, nothing has changed, we need change, we want change”

Lecturer kidnapped in Delta, abductors demand N100million ransom

A senior lecturer of the Delta State-owned polytechnic in Ogwashi-Uku in Delta state, Mr Tobi Benson, was kidnapped by a four-man armed gang at his home along Assemblies of God Church street, off Isah road, Ogwashi-Uku, on Monday September 28th.

Eyewitnesses say the middle aged man was dragged out of his car at gun point after he packed his car in his garage and was moved into another waiting vehicle.

The kidnappers have contacted his wife and are demanding a N100 million ransom. Confirming the kidnap, the Delta state Police Public Relations Officer, Celestina Kalu said the police was doing everything possible to ensure the lecturer is freed.

REMI TINUBU- "My husband never supported my re-election to the National assembly"

The Lawmaker representing Lagos Central Senatorial District, Senator Oluremi Tinubu has revealed that her re-election into the Senate did not get the backing of her husband, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu. She made this revelation on Tuesday September 29th during the "Women in Government’ conference organised by the South-West Region of the Department For International Development, DFID in collaboration with the Office of the Deputy Governor of Lagos State.
"Tinubu likes his wife to be at home and what is more confusing to me is that most Muslim men do not want their wives to work, but I am a hard worker.
The former Lagos State First Lady noted that it was her district leaders who got the form for her and talked her husband into allowing her to run for the position.
“People have been saying that I got to this position because I am Asiwaju’s wife. What they did not realise is that in the past election, my husband asked me not to go for a second term. It was the leaders in my district that got me the form and talked to him that they wanted me to go back. You can go to my district, the elites might not know me but the grassroots are the ones supporting and voting massively for me. I think that is enough for me and that is how you can get elected, you have to really identify with your people; if really know your people, they will stand up for you,’’ she stated.
Tinubu noted that she worked hard in order to win the support of her constituency.
"When I got the bill to run for primaries, I told my husband that I needed money and he said no money. I fought with the people in my constituency because they said I have to give them more money and I said no, what about the ones I have been giving to you before? If you are not going to vote, so be it. They said that they were just voting for me because of Asiwaju and I responded that Asiwaju is not even supporting me, then, you can go and vote for him." She is however appreciative of their massive support.

"But I’m grateful they voted for me. I have realised that when you are elected, you have to go back and work with your constituency because that is where your support and vote rests,’’ she stated

Nicki Minaj is getting her own show on ABC

Big congratulations to rapper Nicki Minaj who is set to star in and executive produce a new half-hour comedy series not on BET, or MTV or O Network but for ABC Family.
Nicki's own life is providing the inspiration as the show will talk about her own rise to musical stardom including her family's move from Trinidad in the early 1990s when she was very young to her upbringing in Queens, New York.
“This is one of the more unique adventures I've ever embarked on,” Minaj said in a statement. “I couldn't be more proud and excited to team up with an amazing group of people to give the world something really special.”
 Nicki is currently launching a nation wide search in the US to find a young Nicki.

Production will begin in Minaj's hometown of Queens, N.Y., later in the year.

PMB appoints himself as Petroleum Minister

President Buhari while addressing some select reporters in New York on Tuesday, after addressing a Global Leaders’ Summit on Countering ISIL and Violent Extremism, he will remain the Minister of Petroleum.
He said the step is being taken as part of efforts to sanitise Nigeria’s oil industry which is said to be plagued by corruption, massive fraud, and crude oil theft.

He said:
“I will remain Minister of Petroleum.
“I will appoint a minister of State for Petroleum”.

Buhari restated his determination to sanitise Nigeria’s oil industry and free it from corruption and create more transparency.
He said that his first step in sanitizing the petroleum sector has already begun with the appointment of a new management for the NNPC and said that the prosecution of those who misappropriated NNPC’s funds is already in the works.

Buhari, who took office at the end of May promising to fight corruption, has made it clear he wants to overhaul the oil sector in Africa’s biggest economy, which provides the government with about 70% of its revenue.

Photo: Mentally ill man kills five children & stabs pregnant woman
