No need to go watch ‘The Wedding Party 2’ in cinemas, here’s what’s going to happen

Nigeria; the most populous black nation in the world, the country whose president has more Ghost than Starz‘ Power and, the country that has turned social media into cinema.

Free cinema.

And what’s more, we have figured out how to make less from the sequel of a movie that has gone on to become the highest-grossing Nollywood movie at the box office
How? You ask. The undefeated power of social media, that is!

*Drumroll*

Yes, we do it for the culture.

Because it is so hard, to keep the daily activities on set out of Instagram.

Why then, should anyone pay to see this movie when they already know the plot.

Wait, you don’t?

C’mon, if you own one social media account, then you must already know the plot of The Wedding Party 2

OMG!!! Notorious Cult Group, Badoo, kills Family Of Five Including A Pregnant Woman In Ikorodu…See Graphic Photos!

Notorious Cult Group, Badoo, allegedly killed a family of five including a pregnant woman at Itamaga behind radio in the Ikorodu area of Lagos state.

Reports are that the cult members killed the pregnant woman, opened up her womb and went away with her fetus on the early hours of Sunday, 28th of May. They are known for using a grounding stone to attack their victims and have been behind the killing of families in this area for the last two months.

Sanders Battles To Claw Back Clinton

Bernie Sanders will try to claw back Hillary Clinton’s lead in the race for the Democratic nomination for the US presidency on Saturday in caucus votes in Washington state, Hawaii and Alaska.

Mr Sanders remains a dogged pursuer but Mrs Clinton has 1,691 of the 2,383 delegates needed to win, AP reports.
He is still attracting tens of thousands to his rallies, on Friday calling for a “political revolution”.
Mrs Clinton pointed out she has “2.6 million more votes” than Mr Sanders.
Saturday’s voting is just for the Democratic nomination.
Bigger battles ahead
Mr Sanders has spent the week on the west coast, rallying support among liberals and the left-wing.
Late on Friday in Seattle’s Safeco baseball stadium, he repeated key elements of his policy platform, urging economic equality and universal health care.
He said: “Real change historically always takes place from the bottom on up when millions of people come together. We need a political revolution!”
Mr Sanders is trying to build on overwhelming victories in Tuesday’s caucuses in Idaho and Utah.
However, he also suffered defeat in Arizona, and although his delegate haul from the three states was 20 higher than Mrs Clinton, he has failed to make major inroads into her lead.
Mrs Clinton has also been campaigning in Washington state. She told supporters in Everett: “We are on the path to the nomination, and I want Washington to be part of how we get there.”
She also focused on this week’s deadly attacks in Brussels, condemning Republican rivals Donald Trump and Ted Cruz for their “reckless” foreign policies.
Opinion polls are scarce and tricky in caucus elections – a series of meetings in which voters give their support for candidates with an open show of hands.
However, Mr Sanders has used his appeal with grassroots activists to benefit from the voting system in the past. He has done particularly well among young voters.
Washington is the biggest prize, with 101 pledged delegates available. Hawaii has 25 delegates at stake and Alaska 16.
Whatever happens on Saturday, the battle will be won and lost in far bigger states still to come. In RealClearPolitics poll averages, Mrs Clinton has the lead over Mr Sanders by nine percentage points in California, 34 points in New York and 28 in Pennsylvania.
Calculations suggest Mr Sanders may need to win two-thirds of the remaining delegates – in primaries, caucuses and among so-far uncommitted super-delegates – the unelected officials who can vote for their candidate of choice at the party’s election convention.

Birnin Kebbi Central Market On Fire

The Birnin Kebbi Central Market has been gutted by fire in the early hours of Saturday, the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, reports.

A NAN correspondent, who visited the scene of the incident on Saturday, reports that property worth millions of naira was destroyed but no life was lost.
Alhaji Abubakar Bandam, the chairman of the central market management, who told newsmen in Birnin Kebbi that the fire was noticed at about 12:00 mid night, explained that the source of the inferno was yet to be determined.
He said the management of the market was working closely with security agencies to identify the cause, just as he commended the state Department of Fire Service for its prompt response.
Alhaji Bello Zagga, the state Director of Fire Service, told NAN that the fire lasted for several hours because the firefighting vans did not have easy access to the spot of the inferno.
He said although the source of the fire was yet to be identified, suspected sources could be illegal electrical wiring and connections in shops.
NAN reports that officials from the state government, led by the Chief of Staff of the government house, Alhaji Suleiman Argungu, and the Emir of Gwandu, Alhaji Mohammad Bashar, visited the scene to sympathies with traders who lost their goods. (NAN).
