Kenyan Policewoman Wears "Tight Skirt" to Work, Causes Scandal

This photo of Corporal Linda Okello has caused major controversy in Kenya

Kenya - Kenyan policewoman, Corporal Linda Okello, has found herself in the epicenter of media scandal when photos of her wearing a tight-fitting skirt surfaced on the Internet.

The policewoman from Kiambu, Kiambu County, was reprimanded by her superiors, but still remains with the police force. She has explained that the skirt was part of the official uniform, but she had put on weight.



Some artwork by Kenyans who reacted to the development

Meanwhile, the development has caused quite a stir on Twitter, with Kenyans defending Okello and supporting her. Some observers have noted that photos of overweight policemen never cause any kind of backlash.

This would not be the first time when the subject of police uniform hits the headlines in Kenya. Last year, authorities banned policewomen from wearing lipstick and earrings to work.

Recently, another photo of the woman wearing a black slinky dress - seemingly off duty - made rounds in the social media.

N4.7bn Fraud: Judge’s Absence Stalls Hearing In Babalakin’s Application Till May 12

Court on Wednesday adjourned hearing in an application filed by the Chairman of Bi-Courtney Services Ltd., Wale Babalakin, till May 12.
Babalakin, in the application filed before Justice Lateef Lawal-Akapo, had asked the court to dismiss the N4.7 billion fraud charge preferred against him and four others.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the court had earlier fixed Wednesday, April 30 for hearing of the application but could not sit due to Lawal-Akapo’s absence.
The judge was said to be attending a workshop on Continuous Legal Education organised by the Ikeja branch of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
NAN gathered that the new date has been communicated to the parties involved in the suit.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) had charged Babalakin with allegedly transferring the money on behalf of convicted former Delta State Governor, James Ibori.
Babalakin is standing trial alongside Alex Okoh and their companies-Stabilini Visioni Ltd., Bi-Courtney Ltd. and Renix Nigeria Ltd.
They are facing a 27-count charge bordering on conspiracy to commit felony, corruptly conferring benefit on account of public action and retention of proceeds of a criminal conduct.
His co-defendants had also filed similar applications, challenging the court’s jurisdiction to entertain the charge.
They had also challenged the competency of the charge, arguing that the EFCC lacked the power to prosecute them before a state high court without a valid fiat.

Protesters Chant ‘Bring Back Our Daughters’ In March To National Assembly

Nigerian protesters marched on the National Assembly Wednesday to demand the government and military do more to rescue scores of schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram gunmen at Government Girls Secondary School, in Chibok,Borno State, more than two weeks ago.
Dubbed “a million woman march” and promoted on Twitter under #BringBackOurGirls, the protest was not expected to draw a massive crowd and turn-out was hindered by heavy rain in the capital Abuja.
But several hundred women and men, mostly dressed in red, marched through the rain towards the National Assembly carrying placards that read “Find Our Daughters.”
Protest organiser Hadiza Bala Usman had earlier said that the size of the protest was less important than raising awareness about the plight of the hostages whose April 14 abduction at gunpoint from their school in the northeast has outraged Africa’s most populous nation.
“The government has to understand that we are not going to allow this silence to continue,” Usman said.
In the northern city of Kano, roughly 100 people dressed in black marched towards the state governor’s office, calling for the girls’ immediate release.
The mass kidnapping in the Chibok area of northeastern Borno state was one of the most shocking attacks in Boko Haram’s five-year extremist uprising, which has killed thousands across the north and centre of the country.
The leader of Chibok’s elders forum, Pogu Bitrus, told AFP that he had received information indicating the girls were trafficked into neighbouring Cameroon and Chad and sold as brides to insurgents for 2,000 naira ($12).
Parents have voiced fury at the military’s efforts, accusing the security services of ignoring their daughters’ plight.
Former World Bank vice president Obiageli Ezekwesili, also an ex-Nigerian cabinet member, has emerged as a leader of the #BringBackOurGirls movement and addressed protesters at Unity Fountain in Abuja as the march kicked off.
She accused the military of having “no coherent search-and-rescue” plan.
“We are going to the National Assembly because that is where each of these girls has a representative,” she said.
Bitrus said it was “unbelievable” that the military, which claims to be working around-the-clock to find the hostages, had not yet tracked down any of the kidnappers.
Locals have scoured the bushlands of the remote region, pooling money to buy fuel for motorcycles and cars to conduct their own rescue effort.
Usman condemned what she called the official complacency which has followed the abductions.
“If this happened anywhere else in the world, more than 200 girls kidnapped and no information for more than two weeks, the country would be brought to a standstill,” she told AFP.
Usman said she had been promised that the House Speaker Aminu Tambuwal and perhaps even President Goodluck Jonathan will speak to the protesters.
“We have booked an appointment,” she said. “We expect (both men) will come out and address us.”
Jonathan has faced scathing criticism over his handling of the Boko Haram conflict, which has already killed more than 1,500 people this year.
Speaking by phone from Chibok, a father of one of the kidnapped schoolgirls voiced hope that attention to his nightmare from protesters near the seat of government could make a difference.
“We are poor with no influence whatsoever, which we believe is the reason the government does not care about our girls,” said the father, requesting anonymity.
“We believe if Nigerians, the high and the low, raise their voices from different quarters it will make the government sit up and do the right thing to free our girls.”

NERC Orders Stop Of Fixed Charge In Areas Without Power For 15 Days

The Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC) has directed electricity Distribution Companies (DISCOS) to stop N750 monthly fixed charge consumers of electricity pay monthly – in any area without power supply for 15 days in the month.
The fixed charge is an element of an electricity customer’s monthly bill to enable the “Discos” to maintain and recover costs on permanent investments, such as transformers, cables and poles.
The NERC Chairman, Dr Sam Amadi announced the commission’s decision, yesterday, at a news conference, saying the order would be effective from May 1.
According to him, the commission took the decision based on consideration of complaints and agitations from customers and in line with its role in the electricity industry as provided by a 2005 Act.
“It is hereby ordered that effective from May 1, 2014, where any customer of a distribution licencee has not received continuous electricity supply for a period of 15 days in a month, such customer shall not be required to pay the fixed charge.
“This is provided that the disruption is not due to non-payment of electricity bills or other actions of the consumer, such as tampering, vandalism or totally unrelated to the fault of the distribution company,” Amadi said.
He explained that the 15 days without electricity could either be continuous or cumulatively during the month.
Amadi therefore urged customers to write a formal complaint to respective electricity distribution companies to address the situation “or report to dispute fora in each state for any breach of the order.
He, however, said NERC would not scrap the fixed charge but would continue to review it in line with the demands of the electricity market and international best practice.
Amadi said the new order would ensure that the Discos were more responsive so that operational issues under their jurisdictions, such as faulty transformers and cables were promptly replaced for customers’ usage.
He also urged customers not to be hostile to the companies’ officials when they come to effect repairs in their areas as that could attract sanctions.

156 Companies Prosecuted For Submitting Fake Documents


Emeka Ezeh, the Director General of Bureau of Public Procurement, the BPP, stated the information about these 156 companies at a forum held with contractors, service providers and consultants of Ministries and Departments and Agencies of the Government.
The forum, was organized by the BPP to provide an update on the reform of public procurement system and in order to explain the Public Procurement Act signed in 2007 due to the fact that they influence the contractors and enhance the implementation of federal budget of government of 2014.

The identities of companies were not disclosed. Still, Ezeh added that 80% of the companies that dealt with the government were noticed in fraudulent activities.
According to the statement of director-general, those contractors decided to bid for higher paying contracts faster than the rest by submitting fake documents, instead of making sure that the country gets most value of execution of these contracts.
“We see all manner of fake documents such as false tax clearance certificate, PenCom Certificate of Compliance, false claim of personnel, false audited accounts and use of fake addresses and submission of fake bank statements,” he said.
Moreover, he added that there would be not enough space in prisons to accommodate for them if they all are put behind bars.
Ezeh and the Federal Government decided to create a database that would help in further struggles against corruption. This database will support the transparency, the accountability and the competition as well as value for money in public procurement.
The head of BPP stated that “As of April 24, 2014; 1,495 companies have started the registration process. Out of that number, only 158 have completed their registration.
Moreover, he added that no company will be able to do business with governmental MDA if its not registered in the database since the middle of June this year

Check Out This $340,000 Gold Ferrari 458 Spider

let`s talk about machines. I've recently been thinking about buying new car. Every time I get into a friend's new car, I am instantly envious of all the fancy technology that comes totally standard. Wireless iPhone syncing, touchless navigation, satellite radio, voice command controls… It definitely might be time for an upgrade. Maybe I'll head on down to my local Acura dealership this weekend and trade up to the 2014 TL. Or maybe I'll splurge a little and jump up to the luxurious Acura RL! Or maybe I'll say screw it and just buy a gold coated Ferrari 458 Spider…

This car was spotted in Kensington, London parked on the street outside a kickboxing gym. It turns out the car is owned by Iraqi-born kickboxing champion Riyadh al-Azzawi. Born in Baghdad, Riyadh al-Azzawi was a six-time Iraqi National Champion and two time Arabic Champion before moving to the UK. He is now a two time British Champion and one time European Champion with a lifetime record of 47-0 with 35 wins by knockout.
The standard Ferrari 458 Spider in the United Kingdom costs the equivalent to $335,000 US dollars. The car comes with a 4.5-litre V8 engine that produces 562 base horsepower. It can go 0-60 in roughly 3.4 seconds and has a top speed of 199 MPH.
Riyadh reportedly spent $7,000 USD on top of the $335,000 base price to have the car wrapped in gold vinyl. It's pretty incredible looking, don't you think?

They denied reports that work on the project was suspended due to non-compliance with environmental laws .

“The consortium also highlights that compliance with Nigerian Environmental Laws continue to be deemed a paramount priority and that Environment Impact Assessment, EIA, is an intrinsic part of the project, which is carried out in compliance with the environmental laws that govern Nigeria and in collaboration with the relevant ministries.”
The cost of the project was negotiated down from N138,530,896,346.72 to N117,860,700,741.82 (VAT inclusive) and certified by Bureau of Public Procurement, BPP.
Of this amount, the Federal Government will be contributing N30 billion as its equity participation in the project.
