of an ad has appeared on craiglist threatening another attack on
another state of the US.
The terrifying post had the title: We need more Olandos.
It read:
"Orlando was long overdue, cleanse your community of the filth that
gives decent gay men and women a bad name. Those people were walking
diseases,bug chasers, thank God for AIDS and 9-11 and now Orlando,
Sand Diego you're next".
The text was accompanied by a terrifying image of a gun shooting a bullet.
The ad was posted in the 'men seeking men' section of the site.
The departmental police in San Diego have been, although the ad has
long been removed. The police chief said:"We are fully aware of the
recent post on craiglist which has since been removed. And were are
collaborating with our law enforcement partners, the latest
information remains that there are no credible threats to San Diego".

DESPITE THE ECONOMIC HARDSHIP, BETTING IS STILL POPULAR IN NIGERIA.

Football betting has done a good job at replacing the old system
of 'perming', a slang word for pool playing. Almost every corner of
the major towns, cities and streets in Nigeria has a branch of one
betting centre or the other(they are many centres now). Make efforts
to look in, and you will see that these betting centres are crowded in
with Nigerian youths.
Regardless of the fact that the nation is going through a hard
time and almost 70 percent of families, survive on less than $1 per
day. Yet the revenue of these betting company has not dropped, as
youths keep on flocking into betting centres everyday, hoping that day
will change their fortunes. With all the hardship and scarcity of
money, one would have expected to see a sharp fall in the population
of people 'booking', 'knacking' and staking bets. But the opposite is
actually the case, as the betting industry is the only industry that
is not retrenching workers!
In most betting centres, the minimum you need to book a bet is
N100, forget the fact that the value of naira is quite low, and that
there are a few things that amount of money can buy. But then an added
N50 to that sum can buy half a plate of solid food. N100 on its own in
this season of roasted corn, can buy two at N50 each. N100 can
comfortably buy a 35cl bottle of soft drink and buscuits. Right now,
as I write this, N100 note can get four cups of garri which will serve
two people for a single meal.
Yet, there are still many who spend more than this amount on
betting. People print as many as 3,4,5,6 betting slips at a go at N200
each. Hoping to win atleast one game, at the end losing all tickets.
And we are talking about over N1000 gone down the drain. And then the
next day, the same people hit the betting center hoping to recover the
money they've lost. You can guess... the same thing repeats itself
all over again.
I remember a statement I read three years ago, the statement
revealed that the betting sector churns out about N3 billion per year.
And I'm so sure that figure has increased since then, and will double
this year, whether naira fall or dollar rise.
Even after all the major leagues have ended, the streaming still
continues on other minor leagues in other countries. And even when
there are no games to stake on, there is this fabricated league called
'virtual league' that the betting sites promote so much. It is
entirely virtual and plays out with graphically created characters and
a programmed system, that creates and manipulates scores and league
tables simulating real football. It's just like a casino or roulette,
but its just an imitation of what happens in real sports.
This type of betting is very risky and worse than betting on real
and scheduled football games, but its becoming increasingly popular,
and in many cases has rendered the lives of some youths useless. Some
individuals even go robbing or pick pocketing so they can participate
in it.
A visit to a betting center that offers this service of virtual
league, on observation one would notice the psychological stress in
individuals. The stress actually affects their behaviour without their
knowing it. Some after they've lost so much money start
misbehaving,fighting and yelling incorrigible words. And many of them
are so unconscious of the fact that they are incurably addicted to
betting.
The Euro 2016 is on, and nothing less N50 million (unrefundable)
will be leaving the pockets of Nigerians before the end of the
tournament.

placards and the branches of trees. The youths poured all manner of
insults,abuses and accusations on ousted party chairman Alhaji Ali

irritated by "the bunch of old men who couldn't respect themselves
and behave right".
Olaidipo was visibly shaken when the angry surrounded him in a
threatening. He begged them to allow him leave unharmed amidst the
insults poured on him.
"Please, allow me to go. I will not come back
again," the frightened professor pleaded.
As for Adeyanju, he was no were to be seen, it is believed he fled
through the back door and over the fence. He even left his car at the
parking lot.
Both officers of the party got to their positions because their
predecessors were also sacked in like manner,

IMO PENSIONERS PROTEST AGAINST UNPAID ENTITLEMENTS.

The Nigerian union of pensioners in Imo State today, staged a
peaceful protest, in Owerri the state capital against the government
over unpaid entitlements.
The aggrieved pensioners took to the main streets and junctions
of the city bearing placards with different inscriptions on them. They
also blocked a hub located at the Okigwe roundabout which resulted in
a serious traffic lock-up. The chairman of the union for the state
chapter told the press that what they were doing was a tip, as worse
actions will be seen from them if the government does not adress their
issue.
Gideon Ezeji, the state chairman of the union, said that in the
past various futile attempts had been made by the union to negotiate
with the government, and that if the government continues to neglect
them, they will be forced to remain on the streets. All efforts to
calm the group by security personnel proved very unsuccesful, so much
was their anger that if they were youths, most probably the protest
would have resulted to chaos.
Meanwhile, the commissioner in charge of pension matters for the
state, in an adress on the media, pleaded with the pensioneers to have
patience. He added that, their entitlements were ready, but the
government was facing the challenge of compiling the list of
pensioners in the state.
It should also be noted that the state government headed by Rochas
Okorocha is also owing the civil servants, months of salaries.
