“Boko Haram can be heroes” | 7 important things you didn’t read yesterday (but should have)

1. A hit sex-tape doesn’t make you a bestselling author

Kim Karadashian may have had the most successful sex tape in all of human history, but what gave her the nerve to publish a book… of selfies?

Peradventure one attempts to buy the book, wouldn’t it be torturous to see the same person over and over again for 448 times?

It’s quite understandable that the book has only sold 32,000 copies thus far.

 

 

2. Soyinka, Oshiomhole exchange sweet words

Soyinka remembered an old picture… and Oshiomhole just had to bring out one from his memory bank.

While their wives watched last weekend, Nobel Laureate, Wole Soyinka and Labour champion-turned Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, flattered one another with reminisces of their past deeds.

Soyinka got praised for his support for Labour, while Oshiomhole was lauded for remaining himself in spite of power.

 

 

3. South-East gets a Northern champion

4. Boko Haram can be heroes

5. Ex-governor’s wife plays ‘sick card’ for EFCC

In Nigeria, when the law is in pursuit of you, remember you can always hide under the ‘I am not well’ and/or ‘I’m going for surgery’ escape routes.

Typical!

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission tried to interrogate the wife of a former Governor of Kebbi State, Zainab Dakingari, on Tuesday, but she was let go because…

 

 

 

6. PDP cannot stomach Amaechi as Minister

One thing is for sure- President Buhari’s appointment of Rotimi Amaechi as a Minister will be too hard to bear for the PDP.

For the Peoples Democratic Party, that is tantamount to adding salt to injury or adding insult to injury. (Your pick).

Rather than stomach such a reality, the corruption campaign against Amaechi will persist, fervently.

 

 

7. Boko Haram wants to talk?

Buhari dangled the bait, and now we hear the deadly terrorists are ready to talk.

How true this is, can only be determined by the bearer of the message- Centre for Crisis Communication.

The Abuja-based group said on Tuesday that Boko Haram is ready for genuine dialogue.
