Tinubu: Angry Nigerians Takes The Streets, Demand Tinubu’s Arrest (Photos)

Image
Some angry Nigerians have taken to the streets in Abuja to protest over two bullion vans spotted at Bola Tinubu residence in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial city. AMP recalls that an image of two bullion vans heading into Tinubu’s Bourdillon residence surfaced online prior to the 2019 general elections. Tinubu’s Bourdillon residence is in Ikoyi, Lagos state. Reacting to the development at the time, Tinubu, who is the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria’s ruling party, had said he was neither a government contractor nor a worker with any government parastatal and that there was no iota of truth in the allegation that he had bullion vans in his house distributing money. Tinubu had said: “I am not a government contractor, and I don’t have bullion vans because I don’t store ballot papers. If I may ask, where am I voting now? This is not my house. I don’t work with any government agencies and let anybody come out to say that I have taken contracts from the governme...

Sunderland relegated to the Championship

Image
Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Bournemouth saw the Black Cats drop to the Championship, having won just five of the 34 games they have played Sunderland were relegated from the Premier League following a 1-0 defeat at home to Bournemouth on Saturday. Joshua King netted a late winner to send the Wearsiders down and end their 10-year stint in the top flight. Neither side had been able to find the breakthrough at the Stadium of Light, with Bournemouth goalkeeper Artur Boruc making a string of fine saves and Jermain Defoe wasting several presentable opportunities for David Moyes' men. Hull's 0-0 draw at Southampton looked to have prolonged Sunderland's stay - for another week at least - but King finished off a clinical Bournemouth break to send the hosts down to the Championship. Sunderland have won just five games all season and, unlike in recent seasons when miraculous fightbacks late in the campaign saved the club from the drop, this time they were left with too mu...

Check out the 10 Most Expensive Cities in the World.

Image
For the fourth year in a row, Singapore is the most expensive city in the world. That's according to the Economist Intelligence Unit's annual Worldwide Cost of Living survey, newly released for 2017. To determine the rankings, the EIU compares the prices of more than 400 products and services worldwide, including food, drink, clothing, household supplies, and transportation. Each city is then ranked in comparison to New York on the World Cost of Living (WCOL) Index, with New York assigned a score of 100. Other cities earn a relative score, where a one-point increase or decrease equates to a 1% change in the cost of living. Asian cities dominate the list, with Singapore and Hong Kong earning the top two spots. At No. 9, New York was the only place in the United States to crack the top 10. Below, check out the 10 most expensive cities in the world. The average price of a loaf of bread, bottle of table wine and liter of gas is included for context, and all prices are liste...

POTD: Meet the World's "UGLIEST" Woman who has achieved better than our Slaying Queens

To be well known and influential is about being pretty or boasting to be a slaying queen on social media, this  lady is an example of success.
