I don’t expose my boobs deliberately and I thank God because he gave me big boobs – Enitan Odugbemi


Big, buxom and beautiful Enita Odugbemi is a star to watch out for in the Yoruba movie industry. Though still upcoming, Enitan has done many films that could pitch her shoulder to shoulder with some of the best talents in the industry.
Apart from her talent, which is never in doubt, the next thing that brings her attention are her big, voluptuous boobs which have caused her slight embarrassment in more than one occasion.
In a past chat with potpourri, the producer of a film, Rado Lomo, recounted her experience with fan who got out of turn with her and grabbed at her boobs.

“Yes, that was at Oxford Street in London. I was at Oxford street to do some shopping so this young man walked up to me and said my face looked familiar. Later, he said he could recall that I am an actress. I smiled and he requested to take a picture with me. I agreed. The next moment, I realized he was trying to touch my boobs. I slapped him immediately. I later realized slapping him isn’t a good thing. I apologized and kissed him. He smiled and now we are good friends” she recounted.
In a recent chat she agreed that her boobs bring her unwanted attention but maintained she’s hardly the one to blame for that.
“I don’t expose my body in movies, it’s just because I am busty. I love my boobs so much and I thank God because he gave them to me. I don’t deliberate expose my body or boobs. People only tend to notice them because they are very big,” she said.

Check out this woman striking resemblance to the super Star Angelina Jolie.



Her striking resemblance to Angelina Jolie turns heads wherever she goes.
But Scottish student Chelsea Marr, 24, has turned down the chance of a glamorous life of modelling – in favour of working as a recruitment manager.
Her similarity to the 40-year-old Hollywood star, who is married to Brad Pitt, has seen her take the internet by storm.
Her Instagram account has 56,000 followers, with hundreds liking and commenting on her pictures. 
Friends describe her as shy, and she said in a recent Facebook post that she is just a 'normal girl' who happens to look like the A-list beauty.
She also revealed she is not a model but works as an operations manager for an oil and gas recruitment company in Aberdeen.

She wrote: 'Thank you so much to those who took the time to write those articles about me, they were all so kind, too kind in fact. 
I am extremely flattered to be compared to the amazing Angelina Jolie!' 
When one woman offered her a modelling job, she replied: 'Trust me you don't want me modelling for your shows, I am 5ft 2in, I will end up tripping up and ruining your dresses.' Miss Jolie is 5ft 7in.
Miss Marr admits that she has had lip fillers, an operation on her nose after it was broken, and breast augmentation taking her from an A cup to a B or C cup.

Heartbreaking story:Two-year-old boy kept alive by pregnant dog who BREASTFED him after his 'dead drunk' mother left him.

A severely neglected toddler in Chile was kept alive after a pregnant dog started breastfeeding him.
The two-year-old boy, who has not been identified, was spotted feeding from his neighbor's canine, Reina, after his drunken mother allegedly left him without food or water in the desert port of Arica. 


Police were called to the scene and the naked infant was taken to Hospital Regional Dr. Juan Noé, some 1,240 miles north of the country's capital, Santiago, where he was found to be malnourished.

Saved: This two-year-old boy (aboev) who has not been identified, was seen feeding from his neighbor's dog, Reina, after his drunken mother allegedly left him without food or water in a mechanic's workshop in Chile



He was also suffering from a skin infection and a lice infestation, according to 24Horas.cl.
Officials believe the boy - who was seen feeding from Reina ('Queen') at a mechanic's workshop in a poor area of the port on Thursday - may have been saved from starvation by the dog's breast milk.

Speaking to the Star of Arica, Police Captain Diego Gajardo said the toddler displayed clear signs of 'abandonment'. He was seen by a passerby hungrily feeding from the pregnant canine, he said.
While the infant was in hospital, his mother showed up 'dead drunk', according to neighbors.
Gajardo told The Associated Press the toddler was later released from hospital and temporarily placed in the care of local child welfare authorities. However, his mother has not been arrested. 
This is because the boy did not have any physical injuries, said Gajardo - despite confirming that the child was malnourished. The captain did not mention the claims about lice and the skin infection.
The boy's father later showed up at the hospital - although his role in the child's plight is unclear. It is also unclear where either parent was when the youngster was spotted in the mechanic's workshop.

Marcela Labraña, of Chile's National Service For Minors, said he was extremely 'embarrassed' about the child's neglect in Arica, where thousands of people live in poverty in crowded slums.

This is a story that gives us a lot of embarrassment,' he said, describing the situation as 'inhumane' and 'reprehensible'. 'We do not know for sure whether this (being fed by a dog) or not saved his life.'
The National Service for Minors has now filed a complaint for neglect in relation to the child.
A family court hearing is scheduled for September 22 to determine who will care for the boy. 

The terrifying moment a tradesman discovers a huge python in his loo


Queensland residents be warned, there may be an enormous snake lurking right underneath your toilet seat.
Snake catcher Elliot Budd, from Townsville, in north-east Queensland, was called out to a property in Mount Stewart after a group of tradesmen discovered a massive carpet python coiled up in the downstairs loo.

‘It was about three metres long - definitely one of the biggest I have ever relocated,’ Mr Budd told Daily Mail Australia.‘They didn’t give me too many details before I arrived so I wasn’t really expecting it to be in the toilet,’ he added.
As the experienced snake wrangler lent in to touch the enormous serpent, it quickly retreated down through the pipes and into the u-bend of the toilet.On average carpet python's grow to around 2.1 metres however large specimens are known to exceed three metres.
‘He was really big and really strong so when he tensed up and held himself in there I couldn’t physically pull him out.’
With brute strength failing, the volunteer snake catcher asked one of the tradesmen to unbolt the toilet so he could get better angle to leverage the reptile.
‘We lifted the toilet up and was able to get a much better hold of it but he was just in there so tight.’
‘In the end his head was poking out so I just keep pulling until he eventually started sliding out.’

Snake catcher Elliot Budd was called to the premises to relocate the three-metre python 

The house backed on to bush land so Mr Budd said he had no problem finding an isolated spot ‘away from people’ where he could release the lengthy reptile.
He said it is likely the carpet python sought refuge in the commode due to the recent bout of hot weather. 
‘It is very dry out here so he was probably just looking for a drink,' Mr Budd said.
‘Around this time of year there isn’t a lot of water around and the snake needs water to shed.’
While some of you would like to consider this as a bizarre but completely isolated event, Mr Budd said a local snake catcher pulled 2.3 metre snake out of a toilet only two days ago.

Chris Devon received a call from a man in Kelso who had discovered a large coastal carpet python wrapped up inside his toilet cistern

Chris Devon, from Townsville, received a call from a man in Kelso on Thursday morning who had discovered a large coastal carpet python wrapped up inside his toilet cistern.
Mr Devon said the snake made its way into the bathroom through the ceiling after it pushed a vent out of the way.
The shocked resident said his toilet had been playing up so he had taken the lid of his toilet system, allowing the snake to creep in and cause havoc with the plumbing.

The large python was wrapped up, partly submerged in water inside the toilet's cistern 




On average carpet python's grow to around 2.1 metres however large specimens are known to exceed three metres.

Mr Budd warned that Queensland residents may see a few more snakes out and about as it is mating season.
'It is breeding season so a lot of snakes, including the carpet python, are becoming more active as they start to look for mates.' 
While there may be more snakes out in the open during mating season, Mr Budd said residents shouldn't be concerned as the scaly reptile's main objective is to 'get away from you'.  
'I don’t say that any snake is aggressive, some tend to be more defensive than others but in general all snakes want to do is get away from you.
'It is only when they are tormented or picked up that they will turn on you, like any other animal really.'

7 year old girl shot by her dad before he turned the gun on himself


Mary Shipstone was shot in the head by her father as she stood on her own doorstep next to her mother, clutching a new violin, after she returned from school in September last year. She was taken to King's College Hospital, London, but later died of her injuries.
 
According to Daily Mirror, her father, Yasser Alromisse, 46, was hidden in the rear of a silver Toyota on the drive by the house, in Northiam, near Rye, East Sussex, when he fired the shot.
 
The car windows were tinted and he had created a blind from bin bags to shield himself. His body was later found in a pool of blood in the rear of the car, where he had shot himself in the head.
 
Lyndsey, Mary's mother who had recently moved into a safe house in the area after domestic violence caused her to separate from her husband because she did not want be traced by Alromisse following the collapse of their marriage, told the inquest the killing was an "act of revenge".
 
"Why did he kill Mary? I don't think I will ever really know that." she said."He wanted to kill himself and for some reason he thought she shouldn't live without him. It was an act of revenge really. It has got to be. If he really loved her, he never would have murdered her. I was the one he hated the most."
 
The court heard he hired private detective Paul Parton in May 2014 to try and track her down but Mr Parton was unable to locate Lyndsey and later withdrew his services because of his concerns over Alromisse's motives.
 
Coroner Alan Craze said it was not clear how Alromisse eventually found the address. He described the murder as a "thoroughly despicable act of violence. It was not in any way spontaneous. It was pre-meditated over a long period of time."

‘PROBE CANNOT RUBBISH SUSWAM’S ACHIEVEMENTS’

image
After the successful handover of the reigns of office to his successor on   May 29, after eight years of service to his state, Dr Gabriel Suswam, the immediate past governor of Benue state has opted to for a low profile. 
He has made only one public appearance since leaving office and that was August 14, 2015 at the funeral of his close political associate, the late Hon.Atoza Ihindan, who was cut down by yet unknown political assassins. 
Suswam has equally avoided public comments in the media preferring to maintain a dignified silence even on matters of state some of them pertaining to his performance in office as governor.
Those who know Suswam very well can attest to the fact that he is a man of the people, who loves company and public appearances as much as he loves engaging the media on issues.  Why has the former Governor chosen to maintain studied silence when his tenure is being put on the scale by   the new administration? 
The answer may not far fetched. As former Governor, Suswam sees himself as a statesman who should carefully weigh all his comments on public matters so as not to unduly overheat the polity thereby constitute a source of distraction to those charged with the responsibility to provide leadership at this point in time.
Although Suswam has maintained his quiet stance on issues, it appears the new administration in Benue state is still not comfortable with his silence and  seeming inactivity and would want to bring him to the ring for a political bout. The many probes launched against Suswam speak volumes in this regard.
At the last count, there were about five probe committees launched with fanfare by the government against the Suswam administration. The first was personnel audit of all workers on the state payroll.This probe was ordered by the new helmsman a few days on assumption of office. The objective was ostensibly to check the state’s payroll to fish out ‘ghost workers” and possible reduce the wage bill. 
That appeared on the surface an objective exercise. But the real reason for the exercise was to identify those employed by the Suswam administration in its last two years in office for retrenchment. In pursuit of this veiled political agenda therefore, the new administration did not wait for a report of the audit, it went ahead and removed from the payroll, all those employed by the outgone administration since 2013, when it had two clear years to the end of its tenure. 
This  obvious political activity has sent nearly 1000 staff off jobs. The “offence” of this people is that  they were employed by Suswam, even though due process was followed in making the appointments.
The second probe  of the Suswam era was carried out by the Transition Committee. The committee headed by Chief Mike Iordye, who incidentally served for six and half years out of Suswam’sight-year tenure as Head of Service its report with fanfare. The Transition committee  which was supposed to receive hand over notes, study and summarise same for the new administration turned into a probe committee as it traversed the state visiting projects sites. It summoned dozens of civil servants and other private persons to appear and testify before it. The Committee submitted a report with spurious findings on the debts left behind by the Suswam administration.
Not satisfied with the Transition Committee, the new administration inaugurated two judicial commissions of inquiry all in one day-The first is to investigate and determine all revenues which accrued to the state since June 2007 when Suswam assumed office to May 2015 when he left office. 
The Panel headed by Justice Margaret kpojime has six months to determine how such revenues were applied, the contracts awarded, who awarded the contracts, the status of the various jobs, and whether there was value for money in the transactions, to identify any case of malfeasance and recommend appropriate measures for consideration of the government.
The other probe panel is for verification of government assets. The committee headed by Mr. Moses Atagher, a Lawyer and former Acting Managing Director of the Federal Mortgage Bank has the mandate to determine all assetsof the state in terms, landed property, vehicles, shares, equipment, factories, etc their location, whether such assets were under lease arrangement, to determine the identity of  the persons behind the lease, the terms of the lease, whether there have been improvements on the property  etc.
All these probe panels have since commenced sitting in Makurdi. And the target from all indications is to get at Suswam, destroy his political base, ruin his reputation, cast his administration is the worst light,  and reduce his political viability and dent the image of as many Benue sons and daughters who were privileged to serve their state during Suswam’s eight-year tenure.
Although the administration in the state has denied that it was out to witch-hunt, the series of probes and mandate given the probe panels points directly to the desperation to nail Suswam by all means.
Unfortunately for the administration, the Suswam bashing has so far proved counter-productive as the achievements of his administration which is under scrutiny stand out confront the present actors on the political stage where ever they go across the state. The achievements are most unlikely to be pushed into oblivion anytime soon.
Take a look at the numerous infrastructural projects executed by Suswam. Most of the streets in Makurdi, Gboko, Otukpo and Katsina-Ala were tarred during his tenure. Over 1000km roads were built linking each of the 23  Local Government headquarters in the state. Most of the roads were completed and commissioned, some were at different stages of completion. 
The rural communities got a fair deal as over 150 communities benefitted from rural electricity projects. The primary  and  secondary education sectors received a huge boost in the provision of classrooms,  toilets, offices, libraries, laboratories and other infrastructure to boost teaching and learning.
 The states tertiary institutions were transformed to centres of excellence. The Benue State University particularly benefitted from several projects including a new Faculty of Law complex, convocation square, lecture theatres, faculty offices among others. 
The University Teaching Hospital was completed  and accreditation of the School of Medical Sciences achieved to enable Medical students graduate from the Uinversity.
The Suswam administration completed three major water projects in Makurdi, Otukpo and Katsina-Ala to provide potable water to the populace.
The administration constructed an ultra-modern Government House with offices, logde, banquet hall and guest houses. The facilities are  being  enjoyed by the new helmsmen.
Suswam’s ill-luck is that his party, the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) lost at the polls in the last general election. The on-going political malevolent guised in judicial probe panels is a direct byproduct of the outcome of the hotly contested elections. The inclusion of those who previously served the state and were involved in the very activities now under probe exposes the desperation to craft reasons for Suswam’s political subjugation within the realms of Benue politics. But how far will political vendetta go under the guise of Judicial probes?
The former Governor is confident he will come out clean from the probes. He is sure of his record of activities and has stated that he would subject himself to the probe.
Rather than obliterate Suswam politically, the serial probes are  making Suswam even the more relevant in the politics of Benue. His traducers are  not bringing anything on the table for the people to appreciate. Benue people are not seeing anything coming from the men on the stage in terms of positive intervention on development issues rather than the façade of Suswam bashing which has unfortunately become the official policy of the administration in place.
It  is high time the government in Benue found another area to  divert the peoples attention from the real developmental challenges confronting the stateas the probe panels aimed at discrediting the erstwhile Suswam administration  are proving to be counter-productive.
Abul, a political affairs commentator who contributed from Katsina-Ala, Benue State.

Naval officers terrorise Lagos community •Rape women, beat men, take over homes

The community


Residents of a section of Majidun, along the Ikorodu Road, Lagos have raised the alarm, alleging that Naval personnel have taken over their community and enforcing the law as if the community is in a state of emergency.
Residents told our correspondents that the naval personnel (stationed there to prevent the activities of oil thieves) ejected residents from a street and took over their houses.
When our correspondents visited the area last Wednesday, Chief Owoyele Street close to the creek running through the community, was barricaded with a metal bar, which our correspondents learnt was installed by the naval personnel, keeping residents away from their homes since November 2014. The street taken over by the naval personnel is estimated to have nothing less than 70 houses. Our correspondents saw an armoured tank stationed at the entrance of the street.
Meanwhile, the residents alleged that some young women – married and unmarried – have been raped by the naval personnel, who also allegedly tortured residents at will.
In order to verify the rape claim, our correspondents were taken to the home of 48-year-old Obioma Okampu, an Ebonyi State indigene. A large obituary posted on the wall showed that Okampu died on August 10, 2015.
A resident, who pleaded anonymity, told Saturday PUNCH that one of the naval personnel was raping Okampu’s wife on August 10, 2015, when the deceased was attracted by his wife’s screams.
“He saw what was happening to his wife but immediately the naval personnel saw him, they tried to catch him and he ran. As he tried to cross the BRT lane on Ikorodu Road while running away, he was hit by a coming rapid transit bus and he died on the spot,” the source said.
It was learnt that Naval authorities paid for his corpse to be taken for burial in Ebonyi State.
Okampu’s one room apartment was under lock and key when our correspondent visited the house.
How I escaped death – Resident shot by naval rating
On August 24, a drunken naval rating reportedly shot three residents of the community as part of his ‘birthday celebration’. Two of the victims have been discharged from the Lagos University Teaching Hospital where they were taken to for treatment by the navy personnel. Doctors say the third victim, 48-year-old tipper driver and father of five, Olanrewaju Agbonoja, may never be able to use his right hand again as a result of the gunshot injury he sustained there.
Speaking to our correspondent about the incident, Agbonoja said he cried when he was told he might not be able to use his hand again.
“These hands bring food to my family’s table. These are what I use to send my children to school. These are what I use to feed my family,” he said.
Agbonoja, an Ondo State indigene, explained that he was merely standing in the front of his vehicle in the tipper park at Majidun, when the unidentified naval rating came in to challenge him.
He said, “That was not the first time other naval personnel would see us at the tipper garage. They even come around sometimes to chat with us. I have not seen him among the naval personnel stationed there before.
“He asked me what I was doing there and I was confused on why he was asking me that. Everybody kne                           w the place as a tipper garage. I told him that I was a tipper driver. Before I knew what was happening, he had raised his gun and shot me in the hand. I fell down screaming. I did not know what I did wrong. That same day, I heard he shot two other people in other parts of Majidun.
Egbodofo and Azeez“His colleagues later rushed us to the Ikorodu General Hospital. They did not allow our family members to see us or even come near us at the hospital. Later, we were transferred to LUTH. Navy is the one paying for our feeding and treatment currently. Please, the people have to know what we are going through. I did nothing wrong. I was merely going about my normal job. Now I would never be able to do that anymore.”
Agbonoja said his father’s house in Majidun is one of the houses taken over by the naval personnel.
His young pregnant wife, Deborah, was close to tears when she spoke with our correspondent. According to her, their family would suffer if her husband is not able to work.
The then Information Officer of the Western Naval Command, Lt. Commander Abdulsalam Sani (who has since been transferred), had said that the naval rating involved in the shooting of residents of Majidun would be disciplined at the end of an investigation into the incident.
My granddaughter escaped being raped by naval rating – Residents
A resident of the community, Mrs. Taiwo Azeez, narrated how her granddaughter was almost raped by one of the naval ratings in the community.
She told Saturday PUNCH that on the day the naval rating shot some residents, her son, a bus driver, was with his 15-year-old daughter to buy an electric bulb in the night when they were sighted by a naval rating.
She said, “The Naval man called him and asked him where they were going. He also asked who the girl was and my son said she was his daughter. He told my son to lie inside a gutter filled with dirty water and start rolling in it.
“While my son was doing that, the naval man dragged my granddaughter to one of the houses that they had taken over. As soon as my son realised that the Naval man was out of sight, he stood up and ran here to call me. We went back there in search of the girl but we did not see her.
“We immediately went to report the case to the police. Later, someone informed us that the girl had been found. My granddaughter said the man was about to rape her when one of his colleagues saw him. The colleague was the one who rescued my daughter and took her out of the house. The police simply told us to forget the matter because there was nothing we could do against the military men,” she said.
‘Naval personnel force residents to drink gutter water as punishment’
Okampu’s obituary
Okampu’s obituary
More details emerged on the kind of treatment residents of Majidun suffer in the hands of naval personnel stationed in the area as our correspondents went around the community.
Chairman of the Community, Rev. Oloyede Egbodofo, explained that the naval personnel in the community are notorious for punishing residents of the community by forcing them to drink water from the gutter.
He said, “You will notice that the street has been locked up by the military men. Anytime they catch a resident walking around the street, they either ask you to lie inside a filled up gutter and roll in it or they would order you to drink water from the gutter.
“How long will naval personnel continue to occupy our homes? No government official has given any explanation on why we should be going through since almost a year ago that they moved here. The way we are treated here, it is as if we are in a state of emergency. They do whatever they like with our women and beat our men.
“There is no pipeline installation in this community. The only reason they are here is that some of the pipeline vandals and oil thieves use the river here as a transit point. Is that a reason why scores of people should be chased away from their homes?”
A resident, Mr. Omoyele Olusola, lamented that many residents, who were ejected from their homes, now take shelter in churches around the community,Saturday PUNCH learnt.
“Government should urgently come to our rescue and recover our houses from these men. It is sad that we are going through this when we are not under a state of emergency,” he said.
When our correspondent contacted the assistant spokesperson of the command, Titilayo George, to speak on the different allegations lodged by the residents, she said she would call back. When she was contacted again the following day, she said she was in a meeting and had not called back as of the time of filing this report.
