ASHLEY NWOSU IS GONE

ASHLEY NWOSU Ashley Nwosu Nollywood lost yet another talent, Ashley Nwosu, yesterday. The well-loved actor cut his acting teeth in the Nigerian Television Authority tele-movies and soap operas, before having his real break in the phenomenally successful Day of Reckoning in the early 90s. Nwosu died without actualising My Third Eye, an NGO, he hoped would help government monitor how governance was imparting on the citizens at the grassroots. After battling with a chronic liver disease which left amiable actor, Ashley Nwosu hospitalised at the Military Hospital, Yaba, Lagos, for close to one month, the Umuahia, Abia State born actor is dead! He passed on the morning of April 21 after slipping into a coma that lasted roughly two days. The unfortunate incident has inadvertently thrown Nollywood into a mood of mourning, confirming the depth of relationship he shared with his colleagues while he lasted. Palpable anxiety over Ashley Nwosu's life became noticeable in Nollywood on Tuesd...

STOLEN BALLOT BOXES CAUSES ............

IBADAN, Nigeria Gang members hired by politicians beat an election official and steal ballot papers. Bus loads of thugs harass opposition parties. A bomb detonates without an apparent target. Nigeria's delayed first national election starts Saturday, but already troubles reminiscent of a fatally flawed 2007 vote can be seen across Africa's most populous nation. Coupled with a failed bombing in the north and an attack by a radical Islamic sect Friday, these signs undoubtedly prove worrying for international observers concerned about one of the top crude oil suppliers to the U.S., as well as those who will place their inked fingers to the ballots. "Millions of voters may be disenfranchised by being too scared to go out to cast their votes," recently wrote Kunle Amuwo, an analyst with the International Crisis Group. "Politicians who orchestrate violence must be held accountable and prosecuted. Unless violence is swiftly curtailed and contained, there will be no ba...

OBJ no dey laugh oooh

Former president Olusegun Obasanjo probably had a premonition that he and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would be roundly routed in last Saturday’s election into the National Assembly in Ogun State, by the burgeoning Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) which clinched all the three senatorial seats and most of the federal constituencies’ seats in the state. When he was sarcastically asked by a reporter if he was still laughing when he came for accreditation at the Ita-Eko Ward 11 polling booth 1 near his Abeokuta family house at about 11am on election day, Obasanjo calmly answered, “You can’t say everything is a laughing matter the way I said I dey laugh o, because it is a serious matter now”. The election results turned out not to be a laughing matter for Obasanjo, who lost not only in his polling unit but also in his entire ward. His daughter Iyabo Obasanjo-Bello lost her bid to retain the Ogun Central Senatorial seat while the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Dimeji Bankole ...

SECRECY IN FREEMASON

Secrecy never understood i wonder what is rally hidden in this group maybe somethings you see in the movies like 24, alias, prison break but only God knows, read this about the secrecy of freemason sat down on a bench and pulled out my pipe. I rubbed out a flake of my beloved Virginia tobacco, struck a match, and puffed as I contemplated the subject of the meeting I was about to have with a Brother. He was new to the lodge and had questions, so I had agreed to meet him in the park between our places of business. I noticed him approaching me, smiling and waving as he progressed along the sidewalk. “Good afternoon,” he said, “I really appreciate you taking the time to meet me here. I have so many questions about the degrees, but everyone else seems to change the subject when I bring them up.” “Well, that isn’t much of a surprise,” I replied, “chances are that they lack the knowledge to give you a proper answer. Their silence is the best way to maintain their intelligent reputation...

WHO IS NEEDED IN THIS FRATERNITY

Nigeria Freemasons is only a private social network dedicated to Regular Nigeria Freemasons and our friends. It is made by Freemasons, to help Nigeria Brethren worldwide keep in touch, share their thoughts about freemason, organize events, and discuss Nigeria’s development on the forum. This website is an independent project and independent of District Grand Lodge of Nigeria. What is Freemasonry? It is one of the world’s oldest fraternal societies. Ancient Freemasonry’s lessons of moral values (governing relations between people) and its acknowledgement, without crossing the boundaries of religion, that all depends on the providence of God, apply today with as much force as they did when it took its modern form at the turn of the 17th century. Freemasonry has “secrets” (used in proof of membership) but it is not a secret society. Some of its internal affairs are private and Freemasons incline to reticence about their membership because they are taught not to use it to advance their own...

FREEMASON IN NIGERIA

I thought this just came to this part of our world whereas my guess was very wrong. this was written by a guy named ade on the freemason site for nigeria check it out For sake of accuracy; the first Lodge of Freemasons established in Nigeria was in the year 1868, called Lagos Lodge # 1171 E.C. Chartered by the United Grand Lodge of England. This was followed in the year 1896, by the establishment of MacDonald Lodge # 173 I.C. Warranted under the Grand Lodge of Ireland. Followed in the year 1913,by the consecration of Lodge Academic # 1107 S.C. by the Grand Lodge of Scotland. Thereafter a host of other Lodges folowed to present day. The founders of these pioneer Lodges were mainly colonial administrators and missionaries (clergy). Nigerian or local Brethren were initially few; however there was no discrimination,as the colonialists co-existed in Brotherly Love and affection with their black natives;examplifying the beneficial effects of the benevolent institution of Freemasonry beyond ...

ways to avoid website submission

Avoid These 5 Useless Website Promotion Techniques Every owner of a website in Nigeria or anywhere on the Planet Earth knows that getting a constant flow of traffic is the key to making money online. The world wide web attracts such a massive number of buyers that regardless of what you sell, you will make some really good money when you have lots of traffic. Internet marketers including ClickAds, Nigeria are constantly coming up with newer ways to expand their reach across the Internet because no website can survive without enough specific traffic. However, some of the website marketers have come up with some rather creative ways to bring in greater amounts of traffic in a short period of time and with little effort. My email inbox has been flooded with sales letters promoting some automated software or seldom used secret that promises an explosion of website visitors within 30 days. The disturbing part of all this is that it goes against the teaching of our early years; that not...

JOKE OF THE DAY

As I was nursing my baby, my cousin's six-year-old daughter, Krissy, came into the room. Never having seen anyone breast- feed before, she was intrigued and full of all kinds of questions about what I was doing. After mulling over my answers, she remarked, "My mom has some of those, but I don't think she knows how to use them."

Grammy parties keep celebration rocking through the night

Los Angeles   -- For Sunday night's Grammy winners, nominees and just about anyone tangentially related to the music industry in Los Angeles, the actual ceremony was only a jumping off point. From 9 p.m. until the early morning, musicians hit Hollywood, West Hollywood and beyond to toast a year -- 2010, that is -- in which the music industry seemed to have multiple reasons to celebrate. And while the actual Grammy Awards were also upbeat thanks to several memorable performances , the real action last night took place not at Staples Center, but after the telecast in venues miles away from downtown L.A. The major label post-parties held the most sway with artists and industry alike on Sunday night: EMI, Warner and Sony held their annual after-parties and the mood this year was decidedly festive in contrast to recent years past. This year things felt different: Perhaps portending better things to come for an industry reeling from declining record sales (artists such as Lady Gaga...

Egypt asks U.S. to freeze officials' assets

The post-Mubarak Egyptian government has asked the United States to freeze the financial assets of some officials from that country, according to a senior Obama Administration official. The official, who was not authorized to comment on the record, spoke to CNN Monday on the condition of anonymity. The identities of the Egyptian officials are unknown. During a U.S. State Department briefing earlier Monday, spokesman P.J. Crowley was asked if Egypt had asked for the freezing of assets held by former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and family members in this country. "I am not aware of any specific request regarding any funds associated with President Mubarak," Crowley replied. "Obviously if the Egyptian government makes a particular request we will take appropriate action." The latest speculation about the status of Mubarak family assets in the United States came as U.S. officials on Monday stepped up efforts to assure Egyptians and the restive inhabitants of ...
