Top 5 Signs You Are Falling Too Quickly for Him

Falling way too quickly for a guy before ‘relationship
status’ has even been confirmed? Believe you me
ladies, I understand the struggle. After being single for
a good while, you jump at the first opportunity that
comes your way because you’re fighting so hard to get
out of your current situation and aiming for what
almost seemed impossible at a particular time.
You meet a guy, hang out a few times and form such an
uncontrollable deep attraction to him. You adjust to his
personality, flaws and all. You can’t get enough of his voice,
the way he holds you and you’ve even gotten used the style
of his walk.
He immediately becomes your everything and being away
from him makes you feel lost. You then realize…”oh wait,
this guy isn’t even my boyfriend”. You pause; take a second
to think about it and ultimately conclude that you want him
to be a solid part of your life.
Ladies, I’ve been in your shoes and that’s why I advise you to
cool down! Take it easy. If you keep on going at this fast
pace, you’ll find yourself continually getting hurt and upset,
about what could have been but never actually happened.
Here are my top 5 signs to watch out for if this sounds like
something you’ve experienced in the past or are currently
going through.


1. Daydreaming about him becomes a hobby

Whether it be when you’re at work, taking a quick nap or
chilling with friends, you can’t get this guy out of your head.
You’re always thinking about him and envisioning the most
pleasant scenarios between the two of you.
When you finally snap out of your fantasy world, it sucks so
bad that you’re not with him. He seemed so close, yet…you
feel he’s so far away.


2. Waiting on his calls and texts

You’ve personally given him a certain time period to send
you a ‘Good Morning’ text or respond to one of your text
messages. If he goes over the wait limit, you begin to freak
out.
You repeatedly stare at your phone wishing, hoping and
praying that the next notification or call is from him.
Sometimes, you believe you hear a new message alert or get
a call from him on your phone, only to realize that it was
just the sounds you were hearing in your head.


3. Constantly talking about him

Somehow, he is always on your mind and his name remains
on the tip of your tongue. You unconsciously find a way to
bring him up in almost all situations. You’re not even aware
of how bad it has gotten until your friend has to tell you to
snap out of it.
At this point, it’s become heavily annoying to the people
around you, but you just can’t seem to get him off your
mind.



4. You begin talking to your ‘imaginary boyfriend’

This is now a bit crazy, but very true. When you’re bored or
just trying to pass time by, you visualize engaging
conversations/ arguments between you both. As in…no
jokes! It somehow even keeps you sane because it makes
you feel his presence.
It may seem as merely day dreaming to some, but it’s
beyond that. Just remember not to let anyone catch you or
the psychiatric ward may be admitting their next patient.


5. Mood swings

One minute you’re as happy as can be, while the next, your
one depressed cookie. He makes you feel almost dependent
on him without really doing much of anything at all. He’s just
that one guy you potentially see yourself with and you don’t
want that to change.

SPORTS: Buhari approves funds for All African Games

.President Muhammadu Buhari has surprised those who
think his administration will not accord sports priority by
approving funds to ensure preparations ahead of the 2015
All African Games.
The Director General of the National Sports Commission,
Alhassan Yakmut confirmed yesterday after addressing the
athletes undergoing training.
The All African
Games is holding in
Congo Brazzaville
from September 4
to 19, 2015. This is a
clear departure
from the usual
practice of releasing
funds two weeks to
a major
international event.
An excited Yakmut
promised to release the approved figure to the public in line
with ‘Change Agenda’ which promotes transparency in
governance.
“Mr. President has just approved the funds for the All
African Games and I understand we shall be formally
informed on Tuesday.
“So, as soon as we get the information about the exact figure
approved from the budget we submitted, we will make it
open to the public because we intend to run a very
transparent administration.
“ And I think by the time we finish computing all what we
have done in the last three months, we are going to say how
much has been spent on each item of the projects that we
have executed including the Federations.
“And I am sure that you have noticed that the Federations
are beginning to feel the public funding scheme especially
the ones regarding the All African Games,” Yakmut added.
According to him, apart from the 19 sports that Nigeria will
participate in, two other sports namely swimming and
gymnastics have been placed on standby in the event that
there would be athletes that are exceptionally good to
represent the country in the two sports.
To ensure that athletes have the best preparations, Yakmut
said that the Federations that have requested for foreign
technical support would have them.
The Director General spoke further on this, “We are taking
part in 19 events and two other events that are actually on
standby. If we have pockets of athletes that are exceptionally
good like gymnastic and swimming, we will carry them on
their merit.
“Regarding technical aid, in fact we are in global technical
business and we cannot reduce ourselves to a situation that
no matter how bad our coaches are, we must sustain and
retain them.
“What we have done is to support the four federations that
have requested that they will need technical back-ups from
foreign countries.
“So, wrestling has requested for two back-ups either from
Europe, the United States or Canada. Table tennis has also
requested fat technical support from Sweden, China or
Japan.
“Already, South Korea is supporting us on taekwondo and
basketball has already recruited transparently.
“All these we are doing to make sure that we don’t leave
technical opportunities unattended to,” Yakmut assured.

What Obama And Buhari Discussed During The Meeting

Presidential spokesman Femi Adesina has just taken to
his Twitter account to disclose what was said during the
meeting between Muhammadu Buhari and Barack
Obama .
In the first official encounter of the politicians, President
Obama characterized his Nigerian colleague as a “man of
integrity”.
Speaking further about the role of Nigeria on the African
continent, Obama was quoted as saying by Adesina:
“Wherever Nigeria goes, Africa goes. The continent’s destiny
is tied to Nigeria’s.”
The American president stressed the importance of keeping
Nigeria united, because a divided country can never
succeed.

“Turn the diversity of Nigeria to source of strength.”
Regarding the battle against Boko Haram insurgency, Obama
advised Buhari to combine military action with social and
economic programmes.
According to Sahara Reporters Obama expressed
confidence:
“President Buhari has a very clear agenda of defeating Boko
Haram and extremists of all sorts… and of rooting out the
corruption that has too often held back the economic growth
and prosperity of his country.”
Premium Times also reports with reference to Barack
Obama that the US will partner with Nigeria so that the
country “ends up being not only an anchor of prosperity and
stability in the eastern part of the continent, but can also be
an outstanding role model for developing countries around
the world”.
He also said that he would discuss with Buhari the most
effective ways of cooperation to end insurgency and how the
American side can help Nigeria.
He further pledged US commitment to cooperating with
Nigeria as long as the country “remains on course”.
See the extract from Obama’s speech as provided by The
Punch:
“It is a great pleasure to welcome President Buhari and his
delegation here in the White House for his first visit since the
historic election that took place. Nigeria is obviously one of
the most important countries in the world; one of the most
important countries in the African continent.
“Recently, we saw an election in which a peaceful transition
to a new government took place. Nevertheless, the people of
Nigeria understand that only through a peaceful political
process that change can take place.
“President Buhari came into office with reputation for
integrity and a very clear agenda: that is to make sure that
he brings safety, security and peace to his country. He is
very concerned about the spread and the violence that is
taking place there and the atrocities and has a very clear
agenda in defeating Boko Haram and extremists.
“I want to emphasise how much I appreciate President
Buhari’s work so far. I have seen him put together a team,
so we can do everything that we can to help him succeed
and help the people of Nigeria succeed.”
Obama also promised that his country would continue to
assist Nigeria in ensuring political stability in the country,
Africa and the world.

Apart from that, the American leader addressed members of
Buhari’s entourage, urging the five accompanying governors,
so as other officials, to assist President Buhari.
The Nigerian leader, on his part, thanked his colleague for
the invitation and said that it was partially diplomatic
pressure from the US and international community that
helped Nigeria conduct democratic elections.

UPDATE: Full script as provided by Premium Times:



PRESIDENT OBAMA: Well, it’s a great pleasure to welcome
President Buhari and his delegation here to the Oval Office
for his first visit since the historic election that took place.
Nigeria is obviously one of the important countries in the
world and one of the most important countries in the
African continent. Recently, we saw an election in which a
peaceful transition to a new government took place. And it
was an affirmation of Nigeria’s commitment to democracy, a
recognition that although Nigeria is a big country and a
diverse country with many different parts, nevertheless the
people of Nigeria understand that only through a peaceful
political process can change take place.
President Buhari comes into office with a reputation for
integrity and a very clear agenda, and that is to make sure
that he is bringing safety and security and peace to his
country.
He’s very concerned about the spread of Boko Haram and
the violence that’s taken place there, and the atrocities that
they’ve carried out, and has a very clear agenda in defeating
Boko Haram and extremists of all sorts inside of his country.
And he has a very clear agenda with respect to rooting out
the corruption that too often has held back the economic
growth and prosperity of his country.
On both these issues, we’re looking forward to hearing more
about his plans and how the United States can partner with
Nigeria so that Nigeria ends up being an anchor not only of
prosperity and stability in the eastern part of the continent,
but can also be an outstanding role model for developing
countries around the world.
And we very much look forward to talking about security
issues, how we can cooperate on counter-terrorism. We’re
looking forward to discussing how we can be helpful in
addressing some of the corruption issues that have held
Nigeria back, and unleashing the incredible talent of the
Nigerian people.
We all recognize that some of the best business people in
the world are from Nigeria, and they thrive as they travel to
other countries, but we want to make sure that they’re also
helping folks thrive in Nigeria.
We’re also going to have an opportunity to talk about some
of the other areas where Nigeria has taken leadership — in
public health issues, fighting tragedies like Ebola. Nigeria
has an outstanding track record working with us to eradicate
polio, and that gives us a framework and a template to
continue to work on public health issues throughout the
western part of Africa, as well as throughout the
subcontinent.
We’ll have a chance to talk about issues of climate change,
electrification. As many of you know, Power Africa is one of
our top priorities, making sure that we’re electrifying the
continent so that it can grow faster and more people have
access to the power that they need.
So we’ve got a busy agenda, but I want to emphasize how
much I appreciate President Buhari’s work so far. I’m
looking forward to seeing him put together his team so that
we can do everything that we can to help him succeed and
help the people of Nigeria succeed. Because if they’re
successful and doing well, that will have a ripple effect not
only in West Africa, but throughout the world.
So thank you very much.


PRESIDENT BUHARI: Nigeria will remain ever grateful to
President Obama and the United States for making Nigeria
to consolidate its gains on a democratic system. The visit of
the Secretary of State, when he visited Nigeria to see the
president and the whole government of Nigeria, see the
chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission for
Nigeria, and saw the operation was very clear and a positive
trend that saw us through for this credible election we had.
And the maintenance of pressure by the United States,
mainly, and Europe, to make sure that the elections were
free, fair and credible led us to where we are now. It would
have been almost impossible if the United States did not
maintain the pressure on the former Nigerian government,
but they would not accept anything less constitutional as far
as the processes of the election are concerned. We will ever
remain grateful to you because there are fundamental
objectives that are identify all of Nigeria’s people’s Congress
— security, economy, employment especially of youth, and
then fighting corruption.
We are extremely happy that the United States had made it
absolutely clear before the election that they are prepared
to help Nigeria in this aspect. And this is why I am here, and
I am very grateful for the invitation Mr. President extended
to me.
Thank you very much, Mr. President.


PRESIDENT OBAMA: Thank you so much.

Must Read: New Guideline For Sim Card Replacement by NCC

Nigerian Communication Commission (NCC) just released a
new set of rules concerning sim card replacement. Those of
us who have multiple illegal sims, beware because NCC is
coming for you.
The rules are even more stricter than before.


==>Any SIM to be replaced must have been registered in
accordance with the Registration of Telephone Subscribers
Regulation 2011.


==>Any subscriber, wishing to replace a SIM card must be
present in person or authorize a proxy with a Letter of
Authority.


==>Must present a valid photo identification such as driver’s
license, national identification card, voter card or an
identification letter from a traditional ruler and religious
leader.


==> A subscriber is also required to present the SIM pack or
other evidence of direct purchase/ownership of the SIM card
in question and where that is not available, an affidavit,
attesting to the ownership and loss of the SIM, must be
provided.


==>No more sim card swap by telephone.
According to the Head of Legal Services at NCC, Mrs.
Yetunde Akinloye, said the tough process had become
necessary in order to stop fraudulent swapping of SIM cards
by people, who were not authorized to do so by genuine
SIM card subscribers.
But NCC, this rules are too strict na? Tamper justice with

5 Reasons Why Nigerian Girls Date 'Yahoo' Guys

Over the years, Nigeria topped the chart for internet fraud. In Nigeria these internet fraudsters are tagged as "Yahoo Guys".After cajoling their way to get thousands/millions of dollars from gullible individuals, they in turn spend this stolen moneyon cars and women. They are known to be very extravagant. But even with the illegal act these guys engage in, its not surprising they are always surrounded with different kind of ladies. And some ladies also prefer to date these fraudsters even when they are well aware of the illegal act they engage in.MaxNaija.com will be showing you 5 Reasons Why Girls Preferto date Yahoo Guys...


1. Extravagant Spending :

Money earned from defrauding others is more like free money, hence no proper planning on how to spend it. They sit inside their room (hideout) for few days/weeks and then just walk to the bank to withdraw money they didn't really work for. Well, most Nigerian girls don't care how the money is gotten, as long as the money is present and they get anything they request for. So when it's pay day for yahoo guys, girls are next.

2. Party & Clubbing :

Most ladies love clubbing, although not all know how to dance. But they enjoy the fun and all. After a yahoo guy gets his pay, its party time. Since ladies are aware of this, they don't miss the chance to go out and have all the fun. A yahoo will spend some chunk of his money to celebrate like he just won the presidential election.

3. Romance :

Every lady loves a man who can show her romance, yahoo guys are sweet talkers, they've got that sugar-coated tongue, little wonder they know how to talk their way to defrauding individuals. If a yahoo guy can sweet talk a 70 year old to sending him money with fake promises ofmarriage. They are players, they know to sweet talk a lady and get her. Ladies love sweet words, hence they love yahoo guys.A yahoo guy always have time for his lady, when a he isn't glued to his computer, he is with his girl. Every lady loves a who can satisfy her when her libido is high. An idle yahoo is always there to give her the s3x when she wants it.

4. Show Off :

Ladies love to have a guy they can proudly introduce to their friends, a guy with the car and all the swag.They love to be tagged as the girl dating the big boy. With all the cars, gadgets a yahoo guy possesses, ladies want to hangout with them. Moving with friends in their fleet of cars (Probably Another Camry), you find a lady next to him in the front seat saying 'hi's' and 'hello' to any of her friends who crosses her path.

5. Believing There Is Room For Change :

Ladies think they can convince a bad guy to change when they go into a relationship, even when clearly they are not Buhari. When ladies go into a relationship with a yahoo with the hope of changing him, they should also know they are trying to restrict their source of income in the process. When it becomes difficult for a lady to change a yahoo guy, they become stuck in the relationship.Conclusion:Although the rate of fraudsters has dropped significantly in recent years, due to the strict punishment attached to internet fraud. Some guys still carefully carry out this illicit act. It's not advisable to date a fraudster, because often times even the benefactor becomes the accomplice.

Buhari Turns Down Former Petroleum Minister Alison-Madueke Offer To Refund $250 Million

Immediate past Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, has offered to refund the sum of $250 million dollarsto the Nigerian government in return for immunity from furtherinvestigationand possible prosecution, SaharaReporters has learned. However, her overture has reportedly received a cold response from President Muhammadu Buhari.A source in Aso Rock and a ranking memberof the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) told our correspondent that the former minister has been reaching out to influential government and ruling party officials, in and outside Abuja, to prevail on President Buhari to accept her offer and let bygones be bygone. According to our sources, Mrs. Alison-Madueke had enlisted the support of several figures close to Mr. Buhari, including Governor Nasir el-Rufai of Kaduna State, to intercede with the incumbent president.Mrs. Alison-Madueke was oneof the closest ministers to former PresidentGoodluck Jonathan, and is reputed to have anchored and facilitated numerousmoney-laundering scandals and deals that characterized the era of the just-ended Jonathanadministration. The former Petroleum Minister oversaw several oil swap deals, the disposition of oil wells handed over by Shell Petroleum to the Nigerian NationalPetroleum Corporation (NNPC), and the direct looting of funds through the NNPC. Former Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, was forced out of office after he revealed that the NNPC had failed to remit more than $20 billion in oil revenues with the CBN.The former Petroleum Minister is the latest of several officialswho served under Mr. Jonathan’s government that are currently negotiating “soft landingdeals” with theBuhari administration. The incumbent president, who was sworn in on May 29, 2015, has vowed to probe various questionable financial actions taken by his successor or officials of his government. Mr. Buhari is reportedly determined to recover billions of dollarsin stolen funds.One source said Mrs. Alison-Madueke’s latest offer to refund at least $250 million to the government came after she learned that President Buhari’s scheduled meeting with USAttorneyGeneral, Loretta Lynch, would include a discussion of ways that the US government could facilitate the investigation, arrest and prosecution of some officials of the Jonathan administration implicated in the theft of billions of dollars and a variety of frauds that resulted in the loss of significant sums of public funds in Nigeria.SaharaReporters exclusively reported earlier in the week that the former Minister ofFinanceand the Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, has been cooperating with the Buhari administration’s ongoing, if quiet, probe of a series of questionable financial transactions by the Jonathan administration.Our sources revealed that Mrs. Okonjo-Iweala had given the Buhari administrationdocumentsthat expose a number of shady financial deals executed by the Jonathan administration.Two days ago, we reported that former Secretary General of the Commonwealth, Emeka Anyaoku, had appealed to Mr. Buhari to halt the ongoing probe of former President Jonathan’s administration. Even though Mr. Anyaoku has denied that he urged Mr. Buhari to stop the investigation of his predecessor’s financial dealings, our sources insisted that the ex-Commonwealth chief executive brought up the matter.Our sources disclosed that Mr. Buhari was unimpressed by Mrs. Alison-Madueke’s offer. “Mr. President considers the$250 million as ridiculous considering theamount of moneyMrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke is suspected to have diverted into her pocket and those of others,” said one source.According to our sources, Mr. Buhari is intent on ordering a full audit of deals and transactions done by the former Petroleum Minister and her cohorts in the various agencies that reported to her.In addition, the new president is reportedly focused on looking further at the extensive embezzlement ofsecurityfunds by appointees of the former president. Mr. Buhari has approved an investigation of how more than $3 billion in Nigeria’s defense budget was spent. Security agents who searched the homes of former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, reportedly carted away some revealing documents.Earlier today, the Department of State Security (DSS) arrested and detained Gordon Obuah, a former Chief SecurityOfficer toPresident Goodluck Jonathan. Mr. Obuah is reportedly being questioned over his alleged mastermind of a multi-million dollar oil bunkering deal during the former administration.
