RIM faces lawsuit over BlackBerry collapse

 Research in Motion is faced with a lawsuit for collapsed service despite the free application compensation package given to users for the three-day cut off from email, instant messages and web access.However, the compensation offer has not been enough for a United States resident, Eric Mitchell, who filed a class action lawsuit on behalf of all BlackBerry users.

The suit alleged that the interruptions to e-mail, Internet and messaging represented a breach of contract, negligence and unjust enrichment.

Furthermore, Mitchell’s lawsuit claimed that customers were paying for a service they did not receive and that BlackBerry did not adequately respond to the problem.

Meanwhile, other users complain that weeks after the outages, only three of the promised ‘free’ applications have materialised.

Killer wonder bank •25 depositors die •13,000 lose N22bn •Emir shields fraudster from police

How we were duped –Victims Like Judas goat, he led the unsuspecting lambs to the slaughter. He swore that he never meant to swindle anybody but four years after his victims took that tragic turn in the road, all most of them have to show for their ‘labour’ is tears and debts the size of a small Latin-American country. And those are the lucky ones. The others are dead, killed by depression and disillusionment.

Driven either by greed or the desire to generate more income from an alternative source, over 13,000 ‘investors’ had in 2007 fallen for the juicy investment package offered by a supposedly oil and gas firm, NOSPETCO Oil and Gas Limited. And before their very eyes, they were conned of their hard-earned money amounting to over N22 billion. Their investment had not only disappeared like smoke, they have also been left in the cold without a trace of the promoters of the so-called oil and gas firm turned wonder bank.

End Times!: Lesbian Prostitution Is Now Booming In Lagos State

Beautiful girls, rich women, money, expensive cars, strip clubs, luxurious hotels —the secret sex trade, exclusive only to women, is now big business in Lagos State, southwest Nigeria, P.M.NEWS has revealed, after intense undercover research.
Like in a secret cult, only the initiated understand its cryptic language, esoteric ways, sexual benefits and financial rewards.

For those involved in the bizarre trade, it was discovered during investigation in Lagos Mainland and Island, lesbianism is not new.
Most sex workers with secondary school education agreed that their involvement in the salacious act dates back to their boarding school days when they were initiated by older girls.
Back then, it was just casual sex by girls in their puberty. Today, lesbianism has become a trade, a big but hidden business in the Lagos metropolis.
Dozens of prostitutes informally interviewed during this investigation gave a rare insight into the usually hermetic world of lesbianism in Lagos and the trade now associated with it.
The youngest lesbian prostitute P.M.NEWS met for this article was 16 years old. Most of them were in their early 20s.

What inspired the song If You Ask Me song?

Many things inspired it. I’m an ambassador for Project Alert,

an organization set up by a lady called Mrs. Josephine Effah-Chukwuma. It’s an association against all forms of violence against women and young girls. First of all, I’ve heard about men beating up their girls and some raping their girls or using them for money ritual and other nonsense things.

UK deports 76 Nigerians

THE United Kingdom Government on Wednesday deported 76 Nigerians back home. The conservative-led government of Prime Minister David Cameron had at  inception vowed  to reduce migration in that country.

The Cameron administration also recently imposed a migration cap focusing on non-EU migrants in the UK,  including Nigerians.
Head of Immigration in the Nigerian High Commission in the UK, Mohammed Isa, confirmed the deportation.


He said officials of the two countries would accompany the chartered flight conveying the deportees to Lagos to ensure that their human rights were protected.

Nigeria’s High Commissioner to the UK, Dr Dalhatu Tafida, said many Nigerians in that country were surviving through illegal means, including credit card fraud, internet scams and immigration paper forgery.

He had a message for many Nigerians still struggling to travel to the UK for residency, saying: ``UK is no longer a safe haven; it is easier to live in Nigeria without a job than in the UK.

``Unless you have a confirmed job, do not come; make sure your papers are complete and not forged.’’

Nicki Minaj: Big Fight At Minaj's House Over Maid!

 

There was a big confrontation at Nicki Minaj’s house in Hollywood moments ago … and it got so bad the cops came … TMZ has learned.

Here’s the backstory. Law enforcement tells us, a couple of weeks ago, Nicki’s maid took a photo of the singer out of the trash and then asked Nicki to sign it. Nicki got pissed and fired her.

Cops tell us, the maid did come back today, and Nicki became enraged and ordered her to leave. A source privy to the fight tells TMZ, the maid stood her ground, demanding not to be “treated like an animal” — at which point, Nicki allegedly said, “I’ll show you how to treat someone like an animal … get the f**k out of my house!”

Now here’s where the stories are a bit conflicting. One source says — contrary to what the cops say — Nicki actually made a mistake, saw another maid and assumed she was the one Nicki had fired.

We have had multiple people involved in the incident tell us … the maid Nicki confronted was NOT the same maid she fired a few weeks ago. It was a case of mistaken identity.

Either way, Nicki’s boyfriend got in the act and began pushing the maid with his body.

The maid’s boss called the cops and filed a battery report.
The cops came and the maid asked to make a citizen’s arrest, but eventually decided against it so no one was taken into custody.

How I met my wife - Obiwon

 

Obiwon Obiora:

I met her at her sister's wedding. I came because of the groom actually. He was a client of mine when I was working in the bank. This was July 14th 2007. I reluctantly attended the guy's wedding and when I came, it was almost done. I wanted to see the groom, say hi and go. The first person I saw was Nkechi. I asked her the whereabouts of the groom and she took me to him. Afterwards, she and I exchanged pleasantries and exchanged phone numbers. Now, we are married.

Obiwon's wife Nkechi Ezeife just graduated from Nnamdi Azikiwe University where she read Banking and Finance.

I think I need to start going to weddings o. Since women are meeting husbands there...:-).  But usually I avoid weddings. I feel like it's one of the most boring gatherings ever! The last wedding I went to, I nearly pulled the weave from my head...:-)

Catholic condom ban not causing population boom – UN

Geneva -The Catholic Church’s ban on the use of contraception is not to blame for the population boom that is about to tip the world over the seven billion mark because most Catholics ignore it, a UN Population Fund (UNFPA) official said on Wednesday.

“In Catholic countries like Italy, Spain or Malta people are still using contraceptives like condoms, so the Church ban is not having an impact,” Safiye Cagar, director of the information and external relations division at UNFPA, told a news briefing.

“Besides, the population growth in Catholic countries is limited compared to other parts of world,” said Cagar.
