Manchester United's Paul Scholes has car stolen

Police said the search for the Manchester United player's car was "ongoing"

Manchester United footballer Paul Scholes has had his car stolen after he left its engine running while defrosting the windscreen.

Police said the grey Chevrolet estate had been taken from the drive of his house in Greenfield, Oldham at around 08:00 GMT on Monday.

A police spokesman said "inquiries to locate the car are ongoing".

Scholes is understood to have the car as part of the motor company's sponsorship of the Premier League club.

The spokesman added that Greater Manchester Police had issued warnings about "ice bandits - offenders who target vehicles left outside houses, early in the morning, with the engine running while the owner returns to the house".

"Motorists may be tempted to leave their vehicle with the engine running while they go inside to stay in the warm - however, it only takes a few seconds to steal a car when keys have been left in the ignition," he said

Damn: Couple hit by A Bus while Haveing sex died instanly"what a way to die"

Two lovebirds died while playing ‘Adam and Eve’ in their car on a busy highway.

Police confirmed the accident but could not say whether the two were having s*x or not. However, a source who called our news crew, said it was suspected that the two were having s*x when the Lord decided to take their souls to heaven!
“Have you heard about two people who died while in the act? I can tell you everything if you call me later,” said the seemingly well informed source who spoke on condition of anonymity.
On Friday last week, at around 4am, the 20-year-old man, only identified as Tatenda and his girlfriend whose name could not be published before the next of kin was notified of the death, were driving towards Kwekwe from Harare.
The two, according to the source, pulled over and parked their vehicle, a Nissan Vanette, at a curve at the 185km peg and decided to rehearse the baby-making game. While enjoying ‘sausage gymnastics’, the source said, a Zupco bus which was going the opposite direction sideswiped the vehicle leaving the right side of the Nissan ripped off.
The two were thrown out of the car, landed on the tarmac and died on the spot. The driver of the bus, Bonface Ncube (35) sustained minor injuries

Chris Brown Quits social media

 

More like he quit Instagram because his Twitter account is still up. The singer deleted his Instagram page yesterday night after being ruthless bashed online for comparing himself to Jesus in the wake of his fist fight with Frank Ocean. Chris posted the photo on the right yesterday after he was criticized for fighting Ocean. He felt he was being crucified and judged like Jesus. The insults that followed after he posted the photo was too much for him and he deleted all the photos on his Instagram page...but not before notifying his fans of his departure...

"I would like to thank all my wonderful fans for letting me express my talents/art for you all. But social media takes away the essence of why we are even special or icons. So with that, I'm detaching myself from that world."

"Elevate yourself above the negative and if it doesn't work move on! I respect myself enough as well as my fans to wanna be great!"

Two 3 year olds kidnapped from their home in Ketu

 

Culled from Punch

The kidnapping of two toddlers -  Toheeb Adedokun and Falilu Tajudeen - has thrown Taike Street, Ketu Lagos into confusion.

The two boys have some things in common. They are three-years-old and live in the same compound at number 18.

Toheeb and Falilu, who are the youngest in the house were kidnapped on Friday, and since then, nothing had been heard of them.

PUNCH Metro learnt that the toddlers were playing in front of the compound when suddenly, no one saw them again.

The parents of the children told our correspondent that no headway had been made since  they  reported the mysterious disappearance of their children  to the police five days ago.

Narrating what occurred on the fateful day, Toheeb’s father, Rasaq Adedokun, said, “I was at work and at about 9pm, my wife called me that she could not find Toheeb, who is the youngest of my three children. She also said people had been looking for him and Falilu since  6pm.

“I went back  home and we began a renewed search for them all over the place. He (Toheeb) does not go out of our compound, so I don’t know what happened that day.

“We were told that a woman selling alcoholic drinks close to our street claimed that she saw the two kids. On getting to her, we met  a man who promised to bring the kids to us by 1am and he spoke with so much confidence.

“When we called him at the said time, he told us to call again in an hour. When he was not forthcoming, we reported the matter to the police at Ketu division.”

Razaq, a commercial driver, said policemen at the Ketu Police Division, advised them to also make a report at Alapere Division and Mile 12 Police Post.

Falilu’s father, Moshood, said he had been living in the compound for over eight years, adding that no child had ever gone missing  even though many families live in the house.

The carpenter lamented that no headway had been made in police investigation as a  woman who was  arrested had been released.

Meanwhile, PUNCH Metro gathered  that there was an attempted kidnapping in the same Ketu area about two weeks ago.

It was learnt that about two weeks ago, a five-year-old boy, Dayo Olubajo, escaped being kidnapped on Ogunkoya Street.  A suspect was caught.

Dayo’s mother, Olawunmi, said, “On January 15, 2012, Dayo, who had measles at the time, came to see me where I sell rice. On his way back, a man kidnapped him.

“The man was apprehended by a young man . The  suspect was later taken to Ketu Police Division  .

The spokesperson for the state police command, Ngozi Braide, said Dayo’s kidnapper had been paraded.

She  confirmed the kidnapping of the minors.

She said, “We are making efforts to ensure that the children are returned to their parents safe and sound.

“So far, two people have been arrested and they are at Ketu Police Station. However, they will soon be transferred to SARS for further investigation. One of the suspects had told the parents that he would get the children back and claimed to have information as to their whereabouts last Friday.”

Africa Cup of Nations 2013: Nigeria have Ivory Coast plan

Head coach Stephen Keshi insists he has the "game plan" to beat Ivory Coast after Nigeria qualified for the Africa Cup of Nations quarter-finals.

Two penalties at the death from Victor Moses sent the Super Eagles through at the expense of holders Zambia.

They will now face hotly-tipped Ivory Coast after they secured top spot in Group D with one fixture to spare.

Keshi, 50, said: "Now we face title favourites Ivory Coast. I have a game plan but that is for the players."

Nigeria and Zambia came into the final round of matches in Group C tied on points, goal difference and goals scored.

Zambia had accrued less yellow and red cards, and with both games locked at 0-0, Herve Renard's side would have progressed due to their superior disciplinary record before Moses broke the deadlock in the 79th minute.

"I wasn't checking the scoreline of [the other] match, I wasn't paying attention," Keshi said. "I was focused on my team, my concern was for us to get one goal.

"Ethiopia was a very good team and we knew that every opportunity could make the difference. Soccer is a 90-minute game."

Star midfielder John Obi Mikel echoed Keshi's words about the hard-fought victory.

"We knew they [Ethiopia] were coming looking to win the game as well," he said. "They were very organised in the middle and we tried to make sure we didn't play in the middle. All throughout the game it was tough."

Nigeria head coach Stephen Keshi says he has the "game plan" to beat Ivory Coast

Keshi had come into the game on the back of fierce criticism at home after his new-look Nigerian side had surrendered leads in two laboured 1-1 draws against Burkina Faso and Zambia.

The former international defender had also been questioned after he decided to discard established names such as Taye Taiwo and Peter Odemwingie in a bid to bring through a new generation of players. He believed the worth of this approach had been proven by his side's progression in South Africa.

Keshi said: "I thought Sunday Mba was outstanding in midfield and his introduction is part of my plan to build a team around young players, and senior players like captain Joseph Yobo, vice-captain Victor Enyeama and John Obi Mikel.

"This is a victory for Nigerians where ever they are in the world. This is a time for celebration."

While Nigeria were left to celebrate a quarter-final date with Ivory Coast on Sunday, Ethiopia exited at the bottom of the table as they endured a difficult first qualification since 1982.

"We were playing well but unfortunately in the end we allowed the goals," Ethiopia coach Sewnet Bishaw said.

Dog Helps Woman Give Birth

Pets have become a major part of family life. Now, a pregnant woman was allowed to take her dog to the hospital to help the woman throughout the birth. The maternity ward at St. Michael’s Hospital, in England, allowed the woman to take her dog, inside the delivery room, “because it is a certified therapy dog.”
The presence of the dog was discussed and agreed upon in advance, with the hospital’s infection control team giving their approval that it could be in the room during labor as therapy for the woman. A thorough cleaning of the delivery room was done after the dog, named Barney, left. Head of midwifery at St. Michael’s Hospital, Sarah Windfeld, said: “Barney is a certified Pets as Therapy or PAT dog, and it regularly visits patients in the hospital.”
Pets as Therapy, is a charity founded in 1983. Volunteers take their own friendly dogs and cats, who have been tested and vaccinated, to visit hospitals, hospices, nursing homes, schools and more to provide therapeutic visits for those in need.
To date, there are about 4,500 active dogs and 108 cats in the Pets as Therapy program, in the United Kingdom. Each week, these calm friendly dogs and cats give more than 130,000 people, both young and old, the pleasure and opportunity to hug and talk to them.

MEND Threat: Jomo Gbomo says Nigerians should disregard it

Another faction of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) led by Jomo Gbomo released a statement yesterday asking Nigerians to disregard the recent threat by a  self-acclaimed leader of the group, Comrade Azizi, to unleash  mayhem in Nigeria following the jailing of Henry Okah by a South African court for terrorism.

Jomo Gbomo says it's all hogwash. See his statement below...

"The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) wishes to advise Nigerians and the media to disregard the pathetic attempt at propaganda by a so-called Comrade Azizi and his statements which are not authentic and statements emanating from MEND.

"As claimed by this Comrade Azizi, the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) would like to clarify the following....

"Mr Henry Okah is NOT and has never been viewed as the leader or founder of MEND but rather known as a sympathiser and supporter of our cause.

  
"Our fighters are freedom fighters who are fighting for justice, the emancipation of the Niger Delta and control of our God given resources and not assassins as stated by this so-called Comrade Azizi.

"Our struggle is NOT and has never been about the disintegration of Nigeria or a North and South fight as stated by this so-called Comrade Azizi.

"With regards to the trial, judgement and sentencing of Henry Okah and other Niger Delta indigenes, we will issue a full formal statement in due course stating our views and plans for the future.

"The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) would once again strongly urge Nigerians and the media to disregard any statement from this person," Gbomo said in the statement.
