LIB Exclusive: Tuface Idibia expecting baby No.6. Baby mama, Pero Adeniyi pregnant again

 

Tuface Idibia is expecting baby No.6 with one of his baby mama's and mother of two of his children, US-based Pero Adeniyi.

Pero is due to give birth to the couple's third child together in March. And I hear it's going to be another boy.

His PR manager Bayo Omisore has confirmed the pregnancy. Big congrats to Tuface and Pero.

Labour suspends strike

The Nigerian Labour Congress at a press conference a few minutes ago suspended the nationwide strike action and all mass rallies.

Dear Labour leaders, you just failed 160 million Nigerians. You've betrayed our trust. You said N65 and no going back and u rescind on that? Thousands of Nigerians filled the streets to protest, over 19 people lost theirs lives, thousands of Nigerians in the diaspora also joined the protests in solidarity and you think N97 was what we all did that for? You no longer represent us.

Voting Goodluck Jonathan is biggest mistake Nigerians ever made.

Here is a selection of some of the things he said...

• "Tonight you get Britain's biggest comedian, hosting the world's second biggest awards show on America's third biggest network [NBC]. Sorry, is it fourth? it's fourth."
• "For any of you who don't know, the Golden Globes are just like the Oscars, but without all that esteem."
• "The Globes are to the Oscars what Kim Kardashian is to Kate Middleton. A bit louder, a bit trashier, a bit drunker and more easily bought...allegedly."

President Jonathan orders the arrest of #OccupyNigeria activists?

From Saharareporters.com

In a bid to undermine the growing protest against his government's removal of fuel subsidy, President Goodluck Jonathan has ordered the SSS to arrest civil rights attorney, Femi Falana, Fiery Lagos pastor, Tunde Bakare, ex-member of house of representatives, Dino Melaye and and Kaduna based activist, Shehu Sanni.

Two sources within the State Security Services told Saharareporters that the security agency had received presidential instructions to move against these four men as well as other perceived organizers of the resistance against the government's dramatic  increase of the price of fuel.

"The presidency has decided that the way to break the protest is to go after those that the government believed to be the brains organizing the #Occupy Nigeria protests, " said one of the sources.

Can the president do this?
