Israeli troops kill Palestinian in overnight West Bank raid

BETHLEHEM, West Bank — A Palestinian official says Israeli troops have shot and killed a Palestinian during an overnight raid in the West Bank.
Bethlehem Governor Jebren al-Bakri says 19-year-old Jihad al-Jafari was shot in the chest Tuesday morning on the roof of his house in the Deheisha refugee camp as he was watching a disturbance below. Palestinians showed footage of the body being taken to hospital.
The Israeli military says troops on a “routine activity” were attacked with rocks and firebombs in the camp. The military says troops tried to “disperse the turmoil” and, feeling their lives were in danger, opened fire at one of the instigators. It said one Israeli soldier was lightly wounded in the clash.
Israeli troops often carry out overnight raids searching for suspected militants.

Army Must Defend Nigeria, Not The Tenure Of Any Politician – Oshiomole

Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole says that the Nigerian Army must remain loyal to the nation and not to defending the tenure of an individual.
The governor said this while receiving the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 2 Division of the Nigerian Army, Ibadan, Major General Sanusi Muazu. He noted that no political office holder should get so desperate and try to use the military to boost personal ambition.
“The reason this has become an issue is because of the nature of our politics and the way political actors have put their personal interests over and above national interest. Presidents and governors would come and go, whether they are good or bad. Even the Armed Forces commander would come and go but the institution of the Nigeria Armed Forces will remain. Once we can distinguish between the person and the office, the institutions and the player, we may not have crisis.
“I believe that the forthcoming elections with all the tension that people are raising, the speculation that Nigeria will have crisis, to me I have seen all these before and the God that created this country will ensure that after all the fog, the weather will be clear. Nigeria will remain.
“It is the peace and security of the part that determine the character of peace and security of the whole. The Armed Forces must see themselves as the Nigerian Armed Forces and not the Armed Forces of the Commander in Chief, or of the governor. The Commander in Chief is to be elected by very ordinary people.
“The right of the people to vote for who will be president is a right that must be defended and upheld. Once the process is clean, the outcome does not matter. In a democracy, the people deserve the kind of president they want. He is a product of election and not an imposition.
“So, I ask you to do all you can to keep that confidence, that the army understands that its mandate is to defend the territorial integrity of the Nigerian nation and not the tenure of any political office holder regardless of the level,” Oshiomole said.

John Dumelo – “If I Date Yvonne Nelson, It Won’t Last”

Fans have been urging them to date so this questions were bound to come up sooner or later.
The hunky handsome Ghanaian actor, John Dumelo has opened up on his relationship with Yvonne Nelson.
He told the Nigerian Tribune: –

The truth is that Yvonne and I have been good friends for a long time. Apart from the fact that we are colleagues who take our jobs seriously, we also look out for ourselves like good friends do. I think by now, you should know that we are very good friends. She has come out to deny the rumor several times, so let’s move to the next questions…

So you think things cannot work between you two like she has said?

As I said, she’s been a fantastic friend over the years and a lot of people think that we should date…like she rightly said I don’t think it will last.

Do you have a girl friend?

Yes, I have one.

Can you mention her name?
I’m dating. I will not tell you who the person is. If I mention name, trouble go come ooo.
At what age do you think you would settle down with her?

I believe there is time for everything and I am very confident that time will come when it will come. So, I can only say that I will settle down when it feels right. I am a man who likes to plan before venturing into anything, right now I am concentrating on my career, at the right time, I will settle down. I guess that’s what everybody wants to say or hear now.

Are you pressured to get married?

I think the pressure to get or not to get married comes with age. All will happen in due season. Sometimes, the thought of getting married scares me. The divorce rate these days are just crazy. What’s wrong? People marry for the wrong reasons?.

Can you ever cheat on your wife?

I am not married yet, so I can’t tell you what married men do behind their wives. All I can I say is that I am still single and I hope to get married one day to a beautiful woman and start a beautiful home together. I am still single; when I am married you can ask me this question.

You are a s*x symbol, somehow. Do you engage in it often?

Hmmm as for this question…I am thinking…
