Kylie Jenner has dumped Tyga following reports he cheated with transgenders?

Kylie Jenner has dumped Tyga following reports he cheated with transgenders?





I put the question mark there because it's a report from MediaTakeOut. Read below...
MTO learned that Tyga and Kylie Jenner are officially over... a wrap ...dunzo! According to an insider, Kylie is upset with the recent allegations against Tyga - by multiple transgenders.

Here is what one of our Kardashian tipsters is telling us, "Tyga is going through some things right now, and Kylie wants no part of that. She's at a good point in her career and she doesn't need that kind of scandal surrounding her. For now Kylie is allowing Tyga to deal with the situation and she's going to focus on her career."

We're told that Tyga and Kylie haven't spoken since the incident, and that Kylie is not responding to Tyga's text messages.


Kourtney Kardashian: She Wants Full Custody Of The Kids.




Kourtney Kardashian has been playing the role of suffering sidekick to Scott Disick for too long.The mom of three is “ready to play hardball” with Scott Disick and will go for full custody of their kids.

Scott Disick, 32, has been on an epic downhill slide since he was photographed in France getting way too cozy with his ex-girlfriend.

But, we’ve learned that the worst is still to come for the party loving dad. Not only has Kourtney Kardashian36, dumped him and thrown his stuff out of their home, she’s also planning to take custody of their three children MasonPenelope 3, and Reign, 7 mos.

“Kourtney is saying this is it, that she’s done with him forever and she’s ready to play hardball. The talk is that she’ll go for full custody, and why wouldn’t she, Scott’s not even capable of caring for himself let alone three kids,”.

Scott posted a collage of Penelope pics on Instagram with the caption: “1 of the only things I’m proud off about myself. Happybdayp,” so we know he’s going to be crushed when he finds out he faces losing custody.

And it can’t be easy for Kourtney to break-up with Scott after so many years together but right now we think it’s the best thing she could do. Especially since Scott doesn’t seem to want to do anything to improve the situation. All he seems to want to do it party.

Not only did Scott miss his daughter’s third birthday party he didn’t even bother calling her — or Kourtney.  “Scott is still on a bender and he isn’t showing any signs of slowing down. The fact that he blew off his daughter’s birthday and has completely cut off Kourtney is really concerning. He hasn’t spoken to Kourtney in days.

People in Scott’s life are so worried about him that they’re planning an intervention and back into rehab before it’s too late.

Scott reportedly checked into rehab in Florida on July 5, but left a couple hours after arriving. Although a July 10 club appearance in Las Vegas was cancelled he’s still scheduled to make a July 18, appearance in Atlantic City, New Jersey.

With that sort of schedule it’s no surprise that Courtney’s planning to get full custody. And we think she’s making the right decision.


Michigan judge detains children for refusing lunch with their father




A Michigan judge ordered three children 15, 10 and 9 years old be sent to a juvenile detention facility until they were 18-years-old after the trio refused to go to lunch with their father.

Judge Lisa Gorcyca told the mother and children that the case, stemming from a contentious divorce that began in 2009, was tied for the worst "parental alienation" case she had ever seen. She blamed the mother for alienating the two older boys and their younger sister from their father.

"Your children, you need to do a research program on Charlie Manson and the cult that he has," the judge told the mother, according to court transcripts.

During the hearing, the son attempted to explain to Gorcyca why he didn’t want to spend time with his dad. “Because he is violent and I saw him hit my mom,” the boy said in court documents.

Gorcyca claimed the child had been brainwashed and held all three in contempt of court and sent them to the Children's Village, a detention facility, where they were to be held until they turn 18-years-old.

“I felt like I was watching them being executed,” the children’s mother said. “No matter how bad the divorce gets, I think the court should not punish the kids for that.”

The children remained in custody Thursday, according to the office of attorney Lisa Stern, who is representing the mother.
“I have been doing family law for 20 years and I must say this shocks the conscience,” Stern said. “I think we have a court with the best interest of children in mind. I think the judge was very concerned about the reunification of this family, but went about it the wrong way.”
The father's lawyer, Keri Middleditch, said the situation was traumatic for everyone involved.
"It is unfortunate that the children are in shelter care due to the actions of their mother," she said in a statement on Thursday.
Middleditch said the mother "has continued to endorse the children's behavior that she successfully instilled in them, effectively alienating them from their father. The court took severe action to attempt to remedy a heart-wrenching situation, solely created" by the mother.

On Thursday, a lawyer in the judge's office, Amanda Murley, said Gorcyca was "unable to comment" because of the ongoing case.

True or false :Caitlyn Jenner rumoured to be 'interested' in another transgender.

Caitlyn Jenner rumoured to be 'interested' in another transgender.



In her coming out interview, Caitlyn Jenner said she's straight and will have no interest in men when she becomes a man. But what do you call being 'interested' in a transgender - who used to be a man? There are reports that Caitlyn likes Candis Cayne, 44, a well-known transgender entertainer and actress based in New York! The two have been spending a lot of time together and there are claims Caitlyn 'opened up her heart' to Candis and has fallen for her!
"Caitlyn and Candis had amazing chemistry. After her monumental life change, Caitlyn’s ready to open up her heart again and really, how could you ask for a more perfect fit as a romantic partner than Candis? She’s been basically through the same struggles and confusion, so she’d be the perfect person for Caitlyn to lean on as she continues her journey of transition. Candis is smart, funny, talented and drop-dead sexy. I wouldn’t blame Caitlyn one bit if she fell for her.” an insider tells Star

Lesser Hajj: 'Nigerian embassy did not snub Pres. Buhari's family'




Yesterday Leadership reported that the Nigerian embassy in Saudi Arabia side-stepped protocol by giving preference to former VP Namadi Sambo and his family over that of Pres. Buhari when both arrived for the lesser Hajj (Umrah) in Saudi Arabia. 

They have now retracted the report. Read below
The consular-general in the Nigerian embassy in Saudi Arabia, Ahmed Umar, neither side-stepped protocol nor accorded preferential treatment to the family of former Vice President Namadi Sambo over that of President Muhammadu Buhari when both arrived for the lesser Hajj (Umrah) in Saudi Arabia.

A senior consular official, who is privy to the protocol arrangements for both families, told LEADERSHIP Friday that contrary to media reports that the consular-general is a protégé of Sambo and that the former vice president influenced his appointment, Umar was appointed to his present position based on his competence and experience.

The source, who craved for anonymity, also denied insinuations that Umar snubbed the wife of the president and her children, saying that the consular-general joined the Nigerian ambassador in Saudi Arabia to receive Buhari’s wife, Aisha, and her children at the airport.

LEADERSHIP had been informed that both families had arrived in Saudi Arabia earlier this week for the Umrah and while Aisha Buhari and her five children were allotted a two-bedroom accommodation, the former vice president was allotted an eight-room apartment.
But the source said the accommodation arrangements for both families were the prerogative of Saudi authorities and that any guest was at liberty to get another accommodation at his or her expense if dissatisfied with the official arrangement.

On the alleged preferential treatment given to the former vice president by the consular-general, the source also said Sambo actually paid for his hotel accommodation, save for the fact that he was ferried from the airport, the same privilege accorded to Hajia Buhari.

“Then the issue of the wife of the president paying for her accommodation is a normal practice, and the same thing applies to other wives of presidents who visit Saudi Arabia when they are not satisfied with the accommodation provided.

“In fact, we tried to get her a much better accommodation but that was what was provided by the Saudi Arabian authorities.
“So, this is the true state of things and not the other way round as reported. It is also not true that the consular-general is a stooge of the former vice president; they met each other when he had already been appointed to his present position,” he explained.

The source further claimed that the embassy extended all the required protocol due to the First Lady.

My husband goes mad after smoking ‘igbo’ every morning – Wife tells court



A 42-year-old mother of four, Joy Obioma, on Thursday urged an Igando Customary Court in Lagos to dissolve her 22-year-old marriage for what she called her husband’s lunacy.

“My husband is not well, sometimes he can just go naked and start breaking bottles, looking for who to stab and everybody in the compound will be running for their dear lives.

“There was a day he ran out of the house with a cutlass looking for somebody’s hand to amputate,’’ she told the court.

Vanguard reports that the woman had filed a suit seeking the dissolution of her marriage to Godfrey, citing his lunatic acts.

Recalling her husband’s actions, she said: “One day he (the husband) threatened to pour acid on me to disfigure me and make me less attractive.

“He also threatened to burn down the house and run away.”

The petitioner said she could not continue to live with her husband for the alleged signs of madness.

Joy who alleged that her husband was a hemp smoker, said: “This is the first thing he takes every morning before food.

“Indian hemp is my husband’s first meal before breakfast, he takes it around 5.00 a.m., and after taking it, he will start to misbehave and pounce on me.

“I have been paying our rent, the children’s school fees with the support of my parents and siblings.’’

But the hubby, 49-year-old Godfrey, who denied the allegations, said nobody could separate him and his wife.

“My wife and I are made from `heaven’ to be husband and wife, nobody can separate us,” he told the court.”

He said he could not kill his wife but admitted threatening her with some dangerous weapons.

Godfrey pleaded with the court to save the marriage, saying “I am still very much in love with her.’’

Killing people while shouting Allahu Akbar is not Islam – Buhari

The President of the court, Mr Hakeem Oyekan, fixed judgment in the case for July 22


Mr President ,"The Honeymoon" Is Over.



I believe every new government deserves a Grace Period. A time frame to overcome inertia, put its house in order, develop a policy statement without undermining prevailing circumstances in the polity. Selecting capable hands to pursue its policies, clean the "mess" of the outgoing administration if any and settle down fully to the business of governance. Within this period, obvious gaffes from the government can be overlooked, they can be spared of strong criticisms and pampered to gain confidence to steer the ship of the nation. These concessions are within the context of "ceteris paribus".

The resurgence of Boko Haram activities with its attendant loss of innocent lives, destruction of properties and fear in the populace has altered the status quo and automatically ended the grace period the new government was enjoying. Issues of Insecurity, Economy and Corruptions were the three major points the APC based its campaigns on. The last administration inability to tackle these issues with the urgency it needed led to its ouster. The inauguration of the new government took place on May 29th, 2015.

Nigerians waited with bated breath to see how the new government would tackle these pressing issues. They hope to enjoy true changes for the first time in 16years of its democracy, but events in the last 42 days has started raising question about the direction of the new government. The inability of the new government to form a cabinet has created uncertainty in the polity. Investors are still watching and waiting; a cursory look at the decline in the stock market gives credence to this fact. The Naira to Dollar rate is at its lowest in the Nation's history. Economically, the nation is on standstill.

Some pundits are of the opinion that the government can do without ministers. They base their argument on the fact that even without a cabinet the government has been running, this argument is laughable. The Nigerian polity is tailored in a way that it can even run on autopilot. There will always be motion, but having movement is what matters. Ministers are needed to coordinate activities in the various ministries in order to bring the policies of a government to fruition. There is a limit to what permanent secretaries can do.

Ministerial appointment is also a constitutional requirement. Although, the time frame to make such appointments was not explicitly stated in the Nigerian constitution, but their appointments and importance cannot be undermined. The delay in forming a cabinet has left many in doubt especially political circles; this is also responsible for the many internal wrangling in the polity. Even the secretary to the government of the federation is yet to be named despite its importance.

Today, Boko Haram insurgents who had earlier been routed out of Nigerian territory now carry out simultaneous attacks in the country with impunity leaving death, blood, pains and ruins in its trail, reminisce of the heydays of insurgency. What are the new government security policy and/or marshal plan to end or curtail this resurgence? More often, the presidency releases a statement that the insurgents will be crushed. But then release another statement that they will negotiate with the insurgents.

This flip-flop approach was the path the previous government took and paid dearly for it. The fight against terrorism no doubt requires a multi-disciplinary approach, but without taking a firm decision on how to kill the cancer, we will keep moving in circles. Is the government continuing with the policy of the previous administration? If no, why is the present government retaining the NSA and service chiefs of the previous administration? Suffice to say that the present government criticized their handling of the insurgency? So why still retain them? What has changed? These are the questions in the mind of Nigerians home and abroad.

Other decisions and/or indecision of the present government during the grace period can be excused or rationalized but the security of lives and properties of its citizens, which is its foremost responsibility, can never be overlooked. Boko Haram has ended Buhari's honeymoon. These recent attacks has brought to fore the urgency of having a competent cabinet to pilot the affairs of the nation. Fighting insurgency is not a piece of cake, every hand must be on deck, and every arm and apparatus of governance must function at its highest ebb to achieve meaningful progress.

Finally, President Muhammadu Buhari must realize that he is viewed as the most prepared president in Nigerian's history. Apart from the fact that he has ruled this nation before, he contested for the office of the president four consecutive times. It would have been better if he had lost again and join the league of the "best president Nigeria never had" than to win and fail especially with the huge expectations in the nation. His delayed decisions/indecision is causing a lot of uncertainty in the polity and that is a luxury we cannot afford at this time. We need to know the direction of the new government to guide our expectations and give support where necessary.

May God guide the President

God Bless Nigeria

Ariana Grande caught licking doughnuts meant for customers, says she hates American






The footage of Ariana Grande licking donuts on the counter meant for customers emerged on Tuesday, and on Wednesday she canceled her appearance at a MLB All-Star Concert this Saturday.
She has since being replaced at the gig by Demi Lovato.




In a statement on Wednesday, Ariana insisted she was pulling out of the event because she's had her wisdom teeth removed and apologized for her comments made during a trip to a store on July 4 that were caught on video by a security camera.



In the doughnut shop video, Ariana and Alvarez can be seen at first pretending to lick the doughnuts on display on the top of the counter.
Daring each other to get closer,they esch licked some doughnuts then kissed each other while laughing at the wole incident.

An account of the incident came from 22-year-old Mayra Solis, the cashier on duty at the donut shop who claimed the singer not only didn't purchase any of the doughnuts she licked but also said 'she was really rude.'




Now the shop owner, where the singer was seen in footage licking the sugar coated goods and also heard saying: 'I hate Americans. I hate America,' is pushing for for charges to be brought against her of 'cross contamination' because it failed it's health inspection
Meanwhile, authorities are now looking into the incident and seeing if they might press charges as reports surface claiming the store owner wants to have the two charged for 'cross-contamination.'



The issue is if food-borne illnesses or germs are transferred as a result of the 'licking' it could be potentially seen as a crime.

'I am EXTREMELY proud to be an American and I’ve always made it clear that I love my country,' Ariana said in the statement about the incident.
'What I said in a private moment with my friend, who was buying the doughnuts, was taken out of context and I am sorry for not using more discretion with my choice of words'



'As for why I cannot be at the MLB show, I have had emergency oral surgery and due to recovery I cannot attend the show. I hope to make it up to all those fans soon.'
'That being said let me once again apologize if I have offended anyone with my poor choice of words.'



Despite her apology, Mayra Solis, the cashier on duty at Wolfee Donuts, said the singer was 'rude.'

Buhari rejects N400m armoured cars



President Muhammadu Buhari has turned down an offer by the Federal Government to buy 5 new armoured Mercedes Benz S-600 (V222) cars for his use. The cars which cost is about N400m were planned to be purchased by the State House.

A source close to the presidency told journalists on Thursday that Buhari found out about the plan when the Permanent Secretary, State House, Mr. Nebolisa Emodi, briefed him of his ministry’s activities on Wednesday.

Angry at the revelation, the President was said to have told Emodi that the purchase was unnecessary. Describing it as a waste of scarce resources, the source said Buhari told the permanent secretary that the cars he inherited from former President Goodluck Jonathan were good enough for him.
“I don’t need any new cars. The ones I am using now are just fine,” the source quoted the President as saying.

Top government officials, however, said Buhari welcomed other initiatives presented by the permanent secretary to reduce the operating costs of the State House and strengthen its Finance and Accounts Internal Control Mechanisms.

However he directed that more efforts be made towards the capture of all State House expenses within the approved national budget, in order to avoid the frequent recourse by past administrations to “Presidential intervention funds.”

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, confirmed that Buhari had withheld approval for the purchase of the new cars. Shehu said the President would continue to use the cars left behind by Jonathan in keeping with his commitment to prudent management of national resources.
