Governor Ambode’s Energy Commissioner Wale Oluwo resigns, dumps APC for PDP

Image
Wale Oluwo, the Lagos State Commissioner for Energy and Mineral resources, has resigned from the All Progressives Congress (APC) with immediate effect. Oluwo resigned from the APC shortly after also resigning from Governor Akinwunmi Ambode’s cabinet. In a letter to the Lagos State Chairman of the APC, dated December 3, he explained that he was quitting the party because of its “integrity-deficient” state governorship primary, and the use of an arm of government to blackmail the Executive. “My decision to resign is not unconnected with the events of the last few weeks, which have created a heavy moral burden for me. Ihave found it rather difficult to come to terms or rationalize the party's conduct of the October 2018 primary elections, which were largely characterized by massive voter disenfranchisement, intimidation, violence, undue influence and non-compliance with all known principles of democracy,” he said. “In the particular case of the gubernatorial

Scientists reveal how you can tell if your girlfriend is a cheat simply by checking her fingers

Scientists have revealed that a woman's fingers can tell if she's a cheat or if she's likely to become one. A new study has shown that women with long index fingers on their left hands are more likely to have affairs. The findings have surprised scientists as having a longer index finger is associated with having more typical female characteristics. The longer index finger and shorter ring finger have been linked to being exposed to higher levels of female sex hormones in the womb. It was assumed that women who were "more feminised" would be more likely to be satisfied with their romantic relationships, and to be less impulsive, Daily Mail reports. But the findings of the recent study proved this to be wrong. Being more exposed to the sex hormone oestrogen in the womb leads to women's index fingers growing longer than their ring finger. By contrast, being exposed to more of the male sex hormone testosterone in the womb has a more "masc

What I did was a bit like, and I say this very candily but it’s actually very important, a bit like a rape victim.
