Guys need not break a bank for a lady to trip or impress her when on a date but that is not excusable to suggest awkward places to boycott spending most especially when you know she is not the gold digging type. It's rather a disgrace to manhood seeing places where some stingy/broke guys suggest for dating and these places are;
1. Their Houses:
Often times, guys who fall under this category are not only broke or stingy but sex starved. There's actually nothing wrong with this, just that some do that just to get under her pant.
2. Mama Put Restaurant:
Broke guys suggest local restaurant for babes because of the erroneous belief that Sweet Sensation foods and co. are cancerous due to the form of processing.
3. Public School Class:
I shake my head when I see grown up adults caressing themselves in public schools. Of all places, why should it be a roofless classroom? "Some Babes Self No Get Self Worth At All". Only broke or stingy dudes suggest this kind of shameful arena for date.
4. Church Premises:
This is a common practice in some churches especially during weekly programmes. You will see a broke brother and Sister at the church backyard professing their love, and in some cases, bleeping each other. 5. Library: Broke dudes (most especially students) seek excuse to spend big by inviting a lady to see them at a library. When she comes, they engage her in extensive discussion without buying a single item for her.
6. Road-by ShopsThis is a style broke and stingy guys adopt by telling a lady to meet them at a road by shop. Knowing fully well that the commodities within the shop are not off budget (biscuit, pure water and soft drinks), they will ask the lady when she comes to mention anything she wants to eat as if he is a billionaire.

Gay Right "non issue" Kenyan President
Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta on Tuesday
dismissed gay rights as a “non-issue” ahead of a
visit by US President Barack Obama later this
week.
Kenyatta also said Deputy President
William Ruto, who is still on trial at the
International Criminal in The Hague accused
of crimes against humanity, would also
meet the US leader.
“That is a non-issue to the people of this
country, and it is definitely not on our
agenda at all,” Kenyatta said in response
to question about gay rights.
“We as a country, as a continent, are faced
with much more serious issues which we
would want to engage the US and all our
partners with.”
Obama’s planned Kenya visit was itself
long delayed by Kenyatta’s indictment by
the ICC.
Those charges, linked to post-election
ethnic violence in 2007-08, were
suspended last year — in part,
prosecutors say, because the Kenyan
government thwarted the investigation.
Kenyatta said that Obama would meet all
members of the government.
“Without a doubt, he is coming to meet the
government that is in place, that includes
all of us,” Kenyatta told reporters,
standing alongside Ruto. “We shall all be
meeting.”
Ruto has spoken out against
homosexuality, telling worshippers in
church in May it was “against the plan” of
God. In May, he said there was “no room
for homosexuality” in Kenya.
Homophobia is on the rise across much of
Africa and homosexuality remains illegal in
many countries, including Kenya where it
was outlawed under British colonial
legislation.
One Kenyan man, Kidala Vincent, had
promised to lead a march of “5,000 totally
naked men and women” to protest
Obama’s support for gay rights, so that
he can “see and understand the difference
between a man and woman.”
Kenyatta said economic development and
security were his priorities.
“Poverty, improved health for our people,
better education, better roads, better
security, these are our key focuses,” he
said.
“The fight against terror will be central, we
have been working in very close
cooperation with American agencies,” he
added.
Kenya has been hit by a string of attacks
by the Somali-led Shebab insurgents.
Kenyan troops crossed into Somalia in
2011 to fight the Al-Qaeda-linked
insurgents, and later joined the African
Union force, AMISOM, which is supporting
Somalia’s internationally-backed
government.
The Shebab have since stepped up their
operations in Kenya, dealing a blow to
plans for the troops to serve as a buffer
and protect the long, porous border.
READ WHAT OBAMA AND BUHARI DISCUSSED
Both presidents commit to war against
terror, corruption
• Nigerian leader says ministers will be
appointed in September
United States President Barack Obama
yesterday, in Washington DC, pledged to
stand with Nigeria in all its endeavours,
including the fight against Boko Haram,
provided it remained on course.
President Muhammadu Buhari is currently
in the U.S. on Obama’s invitation.
Buhari, according to a tweet by Senior
Special Adviser to the President on Media
and Publicity, Femi Adesina, had made a
brief stop to greet an ecstatic crowd of
All Progressives Congress (APC)
supporters, who converged at the Blair
House — United States Presidents’ official
guesthouse — to greet him.
Both leaders discussed areas of
collaboration, especially on fostering unity,
fighting insurgency and corruption, as well
as Nigeria’s expected leadership role in
Africa.
Citing Buhari’s credentials in integrity,
Obama told the Nigerian president:
“Wherever Nigeria goes, Africa goes; the
continent’s destiny is tied to Nigeria’s.”
Obama, who urged five accompanying
governors and others to work with
Buhari, harped on the need for unity saying
that a divided country would hardly
succeed. He, therefore, urged the president
to turn Nigeria’s diversity to source of
strength.
Governors of Edo, Oyo, Imo, Borno and
Nasarawa states and other top
government officials joined Buhari and
Obama for the bilateral talks.
On war against insurgents, the U.S.
president advised that a combination of
military action and socio-economic
programmes would help.
Buhari had, prior to his meeting with
Obama, held a breakfast session with Vice
President Joe Biden, during which they
compared terror-war notes. He is billed to
meet with Secretary of State, John Kerry,
today.
Meanwhile, President Buhari has affirmed
that he would appoint members of his
cabinet not earlier than September.
He also declared that the continued
pressure on the immediate past
administration by the U.S. and some
European countries made the general
elections in Nigeria to be free and fair.
Writing in The Washington Post yesterday,
Buhari, said his discussions with President
Obama would include not only his plans for
critical reforms, but also “why the
formation of my administration is taking
time and, crucially, why it must. Already
there are voices saying these changes are
taking too long – even though only six
weeks have passed since my inauguration.
I hear such calls, but this task cannot and
should not be rushed.
“When cabinet ministers are appointed in
September, it will be some months after I
took the oath of office. It is worth noting
that Obama himself did not have his full
cabinet in place for several months after
first taking office; the United States did
not cease to function in the interim. In
Nigeria’s case, it would neither be prudent
nor serve the interests of sound
government to have made these
appointments immediately on my elevation
to the presidency; instead, Nigeria must
first put new rules of conduct and good
governance in place.
“I cannot stress how important it is to
ensure that this process is carried out
correctly, just as it has been crucial to
first install the correct leadership of the
military and security services before we
fully take the fight to Boko Haram.”
Also, while responding to the welcome
remarks by Obama before the start of the
bilateral meeting between officials of both
countries at the Oval Office of the White
House, on the second day of the visit,
Buhari acknowledged the contributions of
the U.S. and some European Union
members towards the consolidation of
Nigeria’s democracy.
The President, who noted that without the
external pressure, “we would not be where
we are today” in Nigeria, recalled that the
pressure started from the visit of the
United States Secretary of State, John
Kerry to the past Chairman of the
Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC), Prof. Attahiru Jega.
“Nigeria will be ever grateful to President
Obama and the United States for making
Nigeria consolidate its gains on
democracy,” the President said.
On his trip to the U.S. the President said
he looked forward to a fruitful visit and
engagement with his host government,
while expressing delight that the United
States government had indicated interest
in partnering and helping the APC-led
administration to bring to fruition its goals
of tackling insecurity, corruption and youth
unemployment.

OBJ Reveals political role model
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, has said that he believed in the political philosophy of the first Federal Minister of Social Services and Natural Resources, Adegoke Adelabu popularly called ‘Penkelemesi’ , describing him as his political role model.Obasanjo said the political philosophy of the late politician was devoid of ethnic and tribal considerations, but focused on a united Nigeria.He stated this while receiving the family of the late Ibadan-born politician, who visited him on Saturday in Abeokuta, saying, majority of Nigerians are still struggling to reach the pinnacle Adelabu attained in politics.Obasanjo, who accepted the offer to be the patron of the posthumous centenary birthday celebration of the late politician, described the late Adelabu as a detribalised Nigerian.Some members of the Adelabu family, who were led by an Ibadan chief and a former broadcaster, Aare Tunde Alabi, said they were in Obasanjo’s house to seek his help in giving a befitting ceremony to the first African Manager of UAC Haberdashery, Lagos.According to Obasanjo, Adelabu was years ahead of his political contemporaries, adding that he advocated for United State of West Africa before his demise.He said, “Adelabu was not just a historic figure, he was a reality, he was a phenomenon, he was uniquely Yoruba, uniquely Nigerian, uniquely African and uniquely a member of human race.“What you are proposing to do, I believe Adelabu deserved it in every facet. Today, we are still struggling to reach the pinnacle or the pedestrial Adelabu reached in politics, of not being swayed by linguistic, ethnic, tribal, regional, sectional consideration but by what is best for Nigeria.“He was years ahead of his contemporary politicians. In his life time, he was talking of United State of West Africa, ECOWAS came up years after his demise. In his lifetime, he belonged to a political party that has its base outside the western region where he came from. He was not a tribal baron, but a national politician.“So, when you asked me to be the patron of Adelabu posthumous centenary birthday celebration, I have no reason to say no.”“I have no reasons to say ‘no’ because, I share what Adelabu stood for, I share Adelabu’s philosophy of a united Nigeria and believe, I share Adelabu’s view of politics beyond ethnicity, beyond tribe, beyond region and I believe that in our national life, we should extol the virtues like the one we saw in Adelabu, a man of the people, down to earth, absolutely down to earth and yet, a man who believed that his politics must be above ethnicity, must be above tribe, must be to unite the country while, of course, uplifting his own people.“On behalf of the family who asked me to accept this and having accepted this, I will do my utmost best to contribute to making that day you have chosen to celebrate the birthday a success and also to use it to remind those who may like to forget that there was, even before independent, men and Nigerians like Adelabu who believed in the unity of this country, who lived for it and indeed died for it.”Earlier, Aare Alabi who gave a brief bio data of the leader of opposition in Western House of Assembly between 1956 and 1958 pleaded to Obasanjo to ‘carry Adelabu to the world’
Fist Combat at Assemblies of God Church Enugu
It was a show of shame, yesterday, in Enugu as two pastors and their loyalists engaged themselves in fisticuffs at Mount Street Parish of Assemblies of God Church, Nigeria.Consequently, police was compelled to lock up the church premises.Vanguard gathered that the church was turned into a battle field, yesterday morning, as two pastors and their supporters fought over who should take control of the parish.Crisis of factionalisation of the Assemblies of God Church had been lingering for more than three years as two persons, Professor Paul Emeka and Dr. Chidi Okoroafor, are each laying claims to the leadership of the church, a position known as General Superintendent, a matter that is currently before the Supreme Court.The drama started when one of the pastors, Rev. Nathaniel Udeze, came with letters of posting and other court documents as part of preparations to be installed as the new pastor at the parish.He was promptly resisted upon arrival with his team of supporters.Leading the opposition was current resident pastor of the parish, Reverend Amaechi Agbo, who along with his supporters, also vowed not to allow Pastor Udeze take over, accusing him of being an “intruder.”The incoming pastor Udeze, said to have been very furious, insisted that he had been officially posted there by the leadership of the church under Rev. Paul Emeka.He also insisted that Rev. Agbo had been transferred to another parish since May 2015.Howver, Rev Agbo disagreed, insisting that he was still in-charge of the parish as he was yet to be formally written by Rev. Okoroafor’s leadership of the church, which he recognised.Factional Sunday SchoolTrouble started as early as 7a.m., when supporters of both pastors arrived and started sharing different versions of Sunday school manual in preparation for the main service.When the factional pastors arrived, the situation broke down completely as the pastors started shoving each other and shortly afterwards, members of the two factions engaged in fisticuffs.Divisional Police Officer, Dennis Ayara, who later arrived the scene, made frantic efforts to bring the situation under control through negotiation, but to no avail.The police, therefore, cordoned off the church and put it under lock, while the leaders of the two factions were asked to report to the station.
