ISIS Supreme Leader's Wife, Son Captured And Detained In Lebanon

-
Lebanese security forces have detained a wife and son of Islamic State (IS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi near the border with Syria, the army says.

The pair, whose names were not given, were picked up by military intelligence after entering Lebanon 10 days ago.

The al-Safir newspaper reported that Baghdadi's wife was being questioned at the Lebanese defence ministry.

In June, Baghdadi was named the leader of the "caliphate" created by IS in the parts of Syria and Iraq it controls.

Last month, the group denied reports that he had been killed or injured in an air strike by US-led forces near the northern Iraqi city of Mosul.

It released an audio recording purportedly of Baghdadi in which he said the caliphate was expanding and called for "volcanoes of jihad" to erupt.

Okonjo-Iweala and Aso Villa Prayer Warriors By Simbo Olorunfemi

I do not know what Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala set out to achieve with her book,‘Fighting Corruption is Dangerous: The Story Behind the Headlines’ but if it is to help repair the damage done to her image on account of her last stint in public service, I doubt that some of the excerpts from the book in the public domain will help in that regard. Her own account: "I was privileged that part of my daily routine was to join the President and his family and his few close friends in Christian fellowship and morning prayers in the Residential Complex of the Villa. It was a way to gain strength for each difficult day. The prayer normally began at 6am so by 5:45am every day..." Prayer is the master-key, someone sings. But the Minister of Finance having to be a part of daily routine of prayers with the President at 6 a.m? Was that really about the prayer or a yearning to be a part of a kitchen cabinet, masquerading as prayer warriors? Madam had to be in a prayer session with the...

A National Executive Council member of the Arewa Consultative Forum, Mohammed Abdulrahman, has asserted that the All Progressives Congress presidential flag-bearer, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, is better than his Peoples Democratic Party’s opponent, President Goodluck Jonathan. “Buhari may have age and health challenges but he has ten times the goodwill of Jonathan,” Abdulrahman claimed. Recently, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, described Jonathan as the best president the country has ever produced. He also likened the President to Jesus Christ. But the ACF chieftain said the former Head of State would make a better president,” if elected as the nation’s president in 2015. He also alleged that the Jonathan administration was running an ethnic government. “There is really no basis upon which to make a comparative measure of capacities or capabilities between General Muhammadu Buhari and President Goodluck Jonathan…Warning!

Instead of diverting public attention with its usual deceit and propaganda, the APC government should gear up and deliver on its hundreds of unfulfilled campaign promises, the PDP Caucus in the House of Representatives has said. In a statement issued by the House Minority Leader, Honourable Leo Ogor, the PDP House caucus warned that the APC’s uncharitable use of the Chibok’s girls’ abduction during the 2015 political campaigns along with its current propaganda efforts cannot help APC win re-election in 2019. “Over and over, it has been proven that hands down, the current APC government in Nigeria beats all preceding administration, including the colonial ones, in the sinister art of deceitful lies and propaganda. “With fiendish mercilessness, APC’s 2015 campaign milked the unfortunate abduction of Chibok girls for every available ounce of propaganda and disinformation against the preceding administration; its campaign rhetoric and official hoopla from the lying ministe...
