After 30 hours of debate from Democrats, U.S Senate finally confirms Jeff Sessions as Attorney General
The debate, which took over 30 hours, was a welcome development for Trump, who Tweeted earlier that he didn't still have a full cabinet due to politicking among Democratic senators. All but one Democrat voted against confirming Sessions, while his Republican colleagues unanimously backed him.
Jeff Sessions, a Trump loyalist and one of Trump's earliest supporters in the Senate, said he would resign from his senate office 11:59 p.m. Wednesday as the White House is scheduled to swear him in Thursday morning.
"It was a special night," Sessions told reporters on Capitol Hill after his confirmation. "I appreciate the friendship from my colleagues -- even those who, many of them who didn't feel able to vote for me. They were cordial, and so we continue to have good relations and will continue to do the best I can."
Breakthrough Discovery! How Mrs Adebisi ends the pain of piles (Hemorrhoids) years after pregnancy
This is a sponsored post...
I wanted to share my story because I suffered pain from hemorrhoids for 8 years before coming across this Natural Therapy that saved my Life. After my first hemorrhoid Natural treatment I was finally free from pain.
Click this link to read about the Miracle Natural Supplement that banished my Piles and pain forever: http://bit.ly/2kS7HKR <<
The pain began after my son was born, 8 years ago! I had gained 40 pounds when I was pregnant. The pain that I had was debilitating. It would almost always come when I was walking or on my feet for long periods of time. I describe it as almost labor pains in my rectum.
The pain seemed to last forever, but it was maybe for five minutes. Then it would go away.
You can Read about The Solution to my Problem here. Click the Link below

This pain wouldn’t happen all of the time, so, because it went away, I didn’t think much of it. One day I asked my mother and brother if they had similar pains and they said, yes. That, however, was the end of the conversation. They didn’t have an answer either, but I felt a little better realizing that it wasn’t just me.
Going in for my annual check-up with my gynecologist, I asked him what could be causing the pain in my rectum. He didn’t even have an answer for me!
After living with this pain coming and going, it was getting worse.
Finally! Someone Understood!
I had no idea what was causing my pain until she told me I had hemorrhoids, I was shocked! I had no bleeding, no itching, and no symptoms other than this horrendous pain. >> Click Here to See the Solution that Helped Me <<
She explained to me that gaining a lot of weight during pregnancy was what caused the hemorrhoids. Then I lost a lot of weight. The hemorrhoids would enlarge when I exercised because of the blood rushing throughout the body. Hemorrhoids are the varicose veins of the anus and rectum, so they would enlarge. There is an area where there are no nerve endings where the hemorrhoids rest, but when they enlarged they would drop into the pain center. So, when I exercised for a long period of time, that’s when the pain kicked in. That explained why the pain came and then went away.
In most cases, it goes a long way to affect men’s performance in Bed with their wife. Believe me, its NOT a good thing at all. The Only thing that I’m happy for is that there is hope. This is because the Natural solution that helped me can also help you too if you are a Man suffering from Piles. You can use this to solve the problem and become a real man, confident and strong with adequate stamina In this area that matters…smile.
So, She introduce this Amazing Natural supplement (NAFDAC Approved) that did the wonder, I used these supplement within few weeks and all were gone!...No More piles and its pain again.

Armed Policemen storm Arik Air as federal government takes over the troubled airline
The Federal Government has announced a take over of Arik Airline, which has recently been experiencing difficulties. According to the Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika, the government’s decision to take over the management of Arik Airlines would stabilise its operations, enhance its long term economic value, revitalise its ailing operations, and sustain safety standards, in view of its pivotal role in the Nigerian aviation sector.
The intervention, according to the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON), clearly underscores the government’s commitment to instilling sanity in the country’s aviation sector and prevent a major catastrophe. The airline will now be managed by Roy Ukpebo Ilegbodu, an aviation expert, under Mr Oluseye Opasanya, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN).
The Minister of State for Aviation, Hadi Sirika expressed the belief that the development will bring about stability in the airline.

An inside source at the airline exclusively confirmed to LIB that the close down was authorized by the Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria as an aftermath of the earlier arrest of the airline’s chairman on Wednesday.
It's also on record that Arik Air is owing AMCON to the tune of N139Billion which has now made the Federal Government’s agency to take over the airline.
LIB also gathered that top management staff of the airline have been apprehended.

Buhari inherited a dire situation courtesy of his hapless predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan- Financial Times
For two weeks, Muhammadu Buhari, Nigeria’s septuagenarian president, has been out of action, receiving medical treatment in London for an undisclosed illness. His absence has sent the rumour mill of Africa’s most populous nation spinning, with frequent erroneous reports that the president is dead. The tragedy for Nigeria is that policymaking has been so ponderous during the 20 months since Mr Buhari took office that, dead or alive, it is not always easy to tell the difference.Under Mr Buhari’s slow-blinking leadership, Africa’s largest economy has drifted into crisis. Brought low by the weak oil price, on which government revenues are woefully dependent, the system has been starved of dollars. That has driven businesses into the ground, people on to the margins and the economy into its worst recession in 25 years. What had been a growing middle class is being daily eviscerated. High inflation, especially for food, is damaging the poor in whose name Mr Buhari ran for office.
There are signs that Nigerians — among the most resilient and adaptive people on the continent — are losing patience. This week, there were small, but rowdy, protests in Lagos and Abuja, at which demonstrators complained about their “missing president”.
There is an irony that Mr Buhari, a retired major general, is missing in action. He ran the country as a military ruler in the mid-1980s after seizing power in a coup. In civilian guise, his leadership style has verged on the invisible. After winning power in 2015 on the fourth attempt at the ballot box, he set out at a pace that has marked his presidency: it took him six months to name a cabinet. Hopes that he had surrounded himself with a lean team of capable technocrats empowered to get policy cranking have come to naught. Policymaking — such that it is — has been crafted instead by a tiny cabal of loyal, less qualified, stalwarts. Mr Buhari has failed to articulate anything approaching a vision.
During his campaign, Nigeria’s soldier-turned-politician promised to train his sight on three main objectives: to improve security, crack down on corruption and diversify the oil-dependent economy. Progress on the first two has been patchy, and on the third dismal.
On security, Mr Buhari has managed to galvanise a demoralised army and make gainsagainst Boko Haram, a terrorist organisation that had been metastasising beyond its northern base. Boko Haram has been pushed back into a north-eastern redoubt and across the border into Cameroon and Chad. But that displacement has been offset by security flare-ups elsewhere, most seriously in the Niger Delta where militants have been sabotaging oil production.
Mr Buhari’s anti-corruption drive can be boiled down to a few symbolic gestures and a few high-profile cases against members of the previous administration. Yet, systemically, little has changed. The confused exchange rate policy — in which the central bank doles out scarce dollars at an advantageous rate — is a recipe for opacity. The dollar shortage is killing off industry rather than nurturing it.
Seventy per cent of Nigeria’s 170m people were not born when Mr Buhari was last running the show, so they might not notice that his policies are stuck in the same 1980s groove. Statist and redistributionist by inclination, he finds himself in charge of a dysfunctional state and an economy with few revenues to recirculate.
To be fair, Mr Buhari inherited a dire situation courtesy of his hapless predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan. He did the country a service simply by beating Mr Jonathan in an election and sparing the country further wilful misrule. Yet Dele Olojede, a Pulitzer prizewinning journalist, says Mr Buhari’s government has been “spinning around in circles”.
As well as the president’s flawed policies, he blames a bloated political system in which most of the 36 states (far too many) spend their time grovelling for federal funds. The mosaic of Nigerian politics is complicated by the need to balance power between north and south and between the plethora of regions and linguistic groups represented in the cabinet. That makes for a parasitic state, not one that can solve problems. “This is a system designed to fail even if you have capable people in charge,” says Mr Olojede, who does not put Mr Buhari in that category.
Nigeria has drifted before, though rarely at a time of such pressing crisis. In 2010, President Umaru Yar’Adua died in office after months in which his illness had been covered up. The man supposedly in charge of the country had been literally sleeping on the job. Mr Buhari may not be as ill as the rumours suggest. Politically, though, rigor mortis set in quite some time ago

Isheri kidnap: Ambode orders prompt arrest of 11-man kidnap gang
A statement issued by the state's Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Steve Ayorinde, said Governor Ambode has already directed the Commissioner of Police, Mr. Fatai Owoseni to move decisively and promptly to arrest the kidnappers.
Governor Ambode, according to the statement, specifically commiserated with the families of the security guards that lost their lives to the unfortunate incident, and assured that government is on top of the situation and working with security agencies to ensure early release of the victim.
“A while ago, the CP of Lagos Command of the Nigerian Police, confirmed that police has commenced investigation as well as put in place necessary rescue operation to ensure the release of the victim. While the State Government commiserates with the families of the three dead estate security guards, it will leave no stone unturned to ensure that lives and property of residents in the State are protected.”Ayorinde saidIt would be recalled that just last week, Governor Ambode had demonstrated his seriousness and determination to eradicate the menace of kidnapping when he signed into law the anti-kidnapping bill recently passed by the State House of Assembly. The law imposes a penalty of life imprisonment on kidnapping for ransom and death penalty in the event of death of a kidnapped victim
EFCC invites Arik Air Chairman for questioning

Having satisfactorily answered the query, the Chairman later left the EFCC office.”The airline has been facing numerous challenges in recent months ranging from delayed payment of workers salary, debt to aviation fuel suppliers, delayed and cancelation of flights amongst others.
Good news! For women trying to conceive but failing every month (must read)
This is a sponsored post...
Infertility means not being able to get pregnant after one year of trying (or six months if a woman is 35 or older). Women who can get pregnant but are unable to stay pregnant may also be referred to as infertile.If you're you struggling to get pregnant, frustrated or feeling angry for not being able to conceive despite all your efforts...
Then you need to Read this post. => https://goo.gl/6zZfGx
Are you having any of the following problems?
-- Irregular Menstrual Cycles
-- Delayed Periods
-- Endometriosis
-- Ovarian Cyst
-- Miscarriages
-- High Prolactin
-- Hormonal Imbalances
-- Low Sexual Drive
Then, ensure you read this post carefully.
Pregnancy is the result of a process that has many steps and the steps are as follows;
• A woman’s body must release an egg from one of her ovaries (ovulation).
• The egg must go through a fallopian tube toward the uterus (womb).
• A man’s sperm must join with (fertilize) the egg along the way.
• The fertilized egg must attach to the inside of the uterus (implantation).
Is infertility just a woman’s problem?
No, infertility is not always a woman’s problem. Both women and men can have problems that cause infertility. About one-third of infertility cases are caused by women’s problems. Another one third of fertility problems are due to the man. The other cases are caused by a mixture of male and female problems or by unknown problems.
What Causes Infertility In Men?
Infertility in men is most often caused by:
• A problem called varicocele. This happens when the veins on a man’s testicle(s) are too large. This heats the testicles. The heat can affect the number or shape of the sperm.
• Other factors that cause a man to make too few sperm or none at all.
• Movement of the sperm. This may be caused by the shape of the sperm. Sometimes injuries or other damage to the reproductive system block the sperm.
What Increases a Man’s Risk of Infertility?
A man’s sperm can be changed by his overall health and lifestyle. Some things that may reduce the health or number of sperm include:
• Heavy alcohol use
• Drugs
• Smoking cigarettes
• Environmental toxins, including pesticides and lead
• Health problems such as mumps, serious conditions like kidney disease, or hormone problems
• Medicines
• Radiation treatment and chemotherapy for cancer
What Causes Infertility in Women?
Most cases of female infertility are caused by problems with ovulation. Without ovulation, there are no eggs to be fertilized. Some signs that a woman is not ovulating normally include irregular or absent menstrual periods.
Ovulation problems are often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS). PCOS is a hormone imbalance problem which can interfere with normal ovulation. PCOS is the most common cause of female infertility. Primary ovarian insufficiency (POI) is another cause of ovulation problems. POI occurs when a woman’s ovaries stop working normally before she is 40. POI is not the same as early menopause.

Less common causes of fertility problems in women include:
• Blocked fallopian tubes due to pelvic inflammatory disease, endometriosis, or surgery for an ectopic pregnancy
• Physical problems with the uterus
• Uterine fibroids, which are non-cancerous clumps of tissue and muscle on the walls of the uterus.
What Things Increase a Woman’s Risk of Infertility?
Many things can change a woman’s ability to have a baby. These include:
• Age
• Smoking
• Excess alcohol use
• Stress
• Poor diet
• Being overweight or underweight
• Sexually transmitted infections (STIs)
• Health problems that cause hormonal changes, such as polycystic ovarian syndrome and primary ovarian insufficiency
Some health problems also increase the risk of infertility. So, women should talk to their doctors if they have:
• Irregular periods or no menstrual periods
• Very painful periods
• Endometriosis
• Pelvic inflammatory disease
• More than one miscarriage

It is a good idea for any woman to talk to a doctor before trying to get pregnant.

Nigerians react to President Buhari's new photos
This afternoon, the presidency shared new photos of President Buhari in the UK. He received APC National leader, Bola Tinubu and former Osun state governor, Bisi Akande at the Nigerian House where he is residing (read here). Some Nigerians claim the photos are photoshopped as they show President Buhari wearing the same Kaftan and Cap he wore in previously released photos. See their comments below..
Child Discipline: Nigerian Parents would roll their eyes at this report
The study in the journal 'Child Development' shows how being too firm, including: yelling, hitting and using other verbal and physical threats as punishment, could negatively impact children's ability to succeed in high school and college/University.
The study which was done by her and her colleagues, involved following more than 1,500 students in a large county in Maryland over a nine-year period, from seventh grade until three years after the students were expected to graduate high school. Students were given a questionnaire and were asked whether their parents yelled at them, hit them and/or shoved them to get a sense of how much physical or verbal aggression they experienced. They were also asked about their own relationships with peers, sexual activity and delinquency such as shoplifting.
The children who said in the seventh grade that they experienced harsh parenting were more likely to say in the ninth grade that their peers were more important to them than following their parents' rules or doing homework. These kids were more likely to engage in risky behaviors by the 11th grade, which included more sexual activity for girls and hitting and stealing for boys. These students were then more likely to drop out of high school or college.
"If you're in this harsh or unstable environment, you're kind of set up to look for immediate rewards instead of focusing on the long-term outcomes," said Hentges. "The premise of that is like in our ancestral environment, if you had this unstable or high-danger environment, it wouldn't make sense for you to put a lot of time and resources toward something that might be in the future if you're not going to live to see that future. Harsher parenting also leads children to have less attachment to their parents and come to overly rely on their peers."
"When you have this type of parenting, from a very early age you are basically kind of getting this message that you are not loved, and you're getting this rejection message, so it would make sense to try and find that acceptance elsewhere," she said. "So that's kind of why you go toward these peers and you're trying to get validation from them, and if that means that you're going to engage in behaviors that maybe you wouldn't do normally just to get that validation, then you're going to do that."
"For people who say that we're not strict enough, I think that it's very important to recognize there's a difference between being harsh and being firm," Hentges said. "Rules are great, but they need to be followed up with in a warm and supportive environment. Permissive parenting where there are no rules is bad as well."
There are some limitations to the study. The research is based on reports only from students, not teachers or parents, and considered students from one geographic area. Because it's a longitudinal study that followed young people for many years, it was a challenge to track them, especially as they got older.
