Kim Kardashian does not think for a moment that becoming a mother should stop a woman from being sexy. According to the mother of two in an interview with Harper’s Bazaar Arabia, some people may not deem it appropriate but she’s generally at peace with being sexy. SEE: Kim Kardashian flaunts cleavage in sheer bra ‘At the end of the day I still have to be me. If doing sexy shoots makes me feel confident, then I’m okay with it,’ she said. Kim continued, ‘That might not be appropriate for some people, and there’s a time and a place. There’s certain things I’ll show my kids and certain things I won’t show my kids. ‘But generally I am okay with it. In moderation. More power to the moms that look really good, work really hard, do what they can so that they still feel sexy, still feel good about themselves, ‘I don’t think for a second that because you become a mom you can’t be sexy any more.’

Reality TV star, Kim Kardashian has subtly stated her dislike for US president, Donald Trump, whom she said should not be in the White House. According to Kim, anyone could run America better than The Donald currently is; going as far to saying even her daughter, North, would make a better president. 'Anyone can run the US better. My daughter would be better,' Kim said when asked who she felt should be in the White House. She went on to say, 'Every single day when you can’t really believe what’s going on, the next day it’s something else even more crazy and tragic. 'It’s really scary, the world that we’re living in now. And when you did feel safe at home, now with Trump in presidency you just don’t feel safe any more.' But that wasn't the best part. She added, 'I don’t even follow Trump on Twitter, but I follow Obama though.'

The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has warned Nigerians against using substandard phones, saying it is responsible for some of the cancer ailments being suffered by the citizens. The regulatory body also identified unapproved phones as a major cause of network interruptions, which it said were also having negative implications on the health of users. Addressing phone sellers on Thursday at Fayose Market in Ado Ekiti during a stakeholders’ sensitisation workshop, an official of the NCC, Mr. Kunle Olorundare, lamented that fake phones have taken over the country’s markets. At the workshop organised by the Ibadan zonal office of the NCC, Olorundare said the preponderance of substandard phones was causing colossal damage to network services and the health of users. He warned that sellers of unapproved ICT products were flouting the NCC Act and could face prosecution or seizure of their market items if they do not desist from selling such.

In a statement signed by the group’s President, Prof. Uzodinma Nwala, and Secretary, Prof. Nath Aniekwu, reminded President Buhari that Kanu, who is leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB),  is a prisoner of conscience. “Nigeria is now swarming with many people like him. “For the avoidance of doubt, this type of attitude of creating two kinds of citizens; those above the law (Arewa youths) and others, those who will be blackmailed by punishment of the law, even when they commit no offence (IPOB), is one of the factors which fuel most of t

The Imo State Governor, Rochas Okorocha, is currently under pressure to write his resignation letter, following the demolition of the popular Owerri market, Eke-Ukwu Owerri, as the United Labour Congress, ULC, has on Sunday, called on Okorocha to resign immediately. Recall,it had been reported that at least three persons, including a 12-year-old child, were killed in the demolition, and millions of naira worth of property and goods were destroyed. The ULC in a press statement signed by its President, Comrade Joe Ajaero, disclosed that the courts had not yet given approval to the Imo State Government to demolish the popular market, and the case is still pending adjudication. “We condemn this as barbaric, unconscionable, and out of sync with the dictates of modern societies that thrive on strict adherence to the rule of law and natural justice. This once again, is a national eyesore that leaves a deep gash on our collective conscience as a people and as a country”. the ULC stated.

​The Coalition of Niger Delta Agitators has said that despite the volte-face by the Arewa youths on the quit notice to the Igbo in the North, it will stand on its position that the northerners and the Yoruba in the oil-rich region must leave before October 1, 2017. The militants, who spoke through an electronic mail made available to our correspondent on Sunday, rejected the call for the arrest of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu. They maintained that call for Kanu’s arrest was used to replace the withdrawal of the quit notice earlier issued to Igbo people living in the North, adding the government and security agencies headed by northerners ignited the quit notice fire. John Duku of the Niger Delta Watchdogs and Convener of the Coalition; Ekpo Ekpo of the Niger Delta Volunteers; Osarolor Nedam of Niger Delta Warriors; and Henry Okon Etete of the Niger Delta Peoples Fighters were among those who signed the statement.

The President- General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo , Chief Nnia Nwodo , had accused the Federal Government of bias , double standard and violation of Kanu ’s fundamental human rights , especially after refusing to arrest the Arewa youths whom he said threatened the Igbo. However , the Chairman of NEF , Mr . Paul Unongo , said the northern elders were disappointed that Ohanaeze had trivialised a criminal matter . Unongo said Kanu ’ s case was 100 per cent different from the ultimatum issued by the northern youths, adding that there was no basis for comparison . He added that the northern elders were able to prevail on their youths and the matter had since been resolved . The NEF chairman said the same could not be said of Ohanaeze which had failed to
