Buhari returns 2016 budget to National Assembly


President Buhari has reportedly returned the 2016 budget to the National Assembly. According to Vanguard, the decision to return the budget may not be unconnected with some discrepancies in the figure Buhari noticed in the reviewed budget documents sent to him by the Assembly members.
The re-worked budget was reportedly sent to Buhari in the early hours of today at about 1: 15am but was returned to the National Assembly at about 12.00 noon.
A source in the presidency who spoke to Vanguard said
“The budget got to the State House at about 1.10am and Mr. President went through it early this morning and still had some issues with some of the figures. I can not tell you exactly what it was but I think the insertions made by the lawmakers were not significantly altered. You know the lawmakers had moved some allocations for key projects that are dear to the president to other areas especially to their constituency projects. Of course, they have changed some but I believe Mr. President is not satisfied with the reconciliation they made. I think this is one of the reasons why it was returned. I can assure you, Mr. President is desirous to sign the budget because he is aware and has acknowledged that Nigerians are going through hardship. He is also concerned so if the budget is cleaned up this night and sent to him, he will sign it as soon as possible. That I know very well”.

NANS Gives Education Minister Ultimatum to Reinstate 13 Sacked VCs



The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has given the Minister of Education, Adamu Adamu, 14-day ultimatum to reinstate the 13 Vice Chancellors who were wrongfully sacked by the federal government in February.
National President of NANS, Comrade Tijani Usman Shehu, in a letter to the minister, dated April 27, 2016, explained that the ultimatum became necessary following the failure of the minister to take advantage of the window of opportunities provided by Nigerian students to resolve the issue amicably.
In the letter, which was entitled, “NANS Demands Immediate Reinstatement of the Vice Chancellors of 13 Federal Universities Within Fourteen Days,” the students described the refusal of the minister to reinstate the sacked Vice Chancellors as directed by President Muhammadu Buhari as nothing but, “A bold-faced attempt to politicise our Universities and arrest academic progression by the jugular and we have vowed to stiffly resist this.”
Describing the sack of the 13 Vice Chancellors as unilateral and unconstitutional, the students noted that the action is unhealthy for the Nigerian educational system

Tupac Shakur’s mum, Afeni Shakur is dead

Afeni Shakur Davis, mother of late rap legend Tupac Shakur who was the subject of one of his most iconic songs and who oversaw his posthumous legacy, died today at age 69.
According to NY Daily News, Marin County deputies responded to Shakur’s home in Sausalito, Calif., Monday night after she suffered a possible cardiac arrest, the sheriff’s office said Tuesday morning. She was taken to a local hospital and died just before 10:30 p.m.
Shakur, born Alice Faye Williams, changed her name when she moved to New York City and joined the Black Panther movement. She and other party members were arrested in 1969 and charged with conspiracy to bomb multiple, busy city landmarks.
In May 1971, she was acquitted on all charges — and she gave birth to Tupac just one month later.
She was the subject of his 1995 song “Dear Mama,” in which Tupac detailed his childhood struggles and respect for his mother.
“There’s no way I can pay you back/But the plan is to show you that I understand/You are appreciated,” he rapped.

After her son’s 1996 shooting death, Shakur took over the late rapper’s estate, which reportedly earns about $900,000 each year.
Earlier this year, she filed for divorce from her husband of 12 years, Gust Davis, and was allegedly in a legal battle over the fortune, TMZ reported. Davis demanded half of the monthly $20,000 Shakur took home every month.
In 2014, Shakur co-produced “Holler If Ya Hear Me,” a Broadway jukebox musical featuring her son’s works.
A movie about Tupac’s life, “All Eyez on Me,” is set for release in November, with Danai Gurira cast as Shakur. Shakur served as an executive producer for the film.
The Marin County Sheriff’s Coroner’s Office will lead the investigation to determine the cause and manner of Shakur’s death.

Yemi Alade sets her eyes on Grammys, talks about “Mama Africa”

Yemi Alade is currently regarded as Africa’s queen, with two albums to her name, a string of international releases, and performances across the continent.


She recently did release her sophomore album “Mama Africa” , which contains the songs ‘ Ferarri’ , and ‘ Nagode’ , with the deluxe edition already out.
Yemi visited Pulse Nigeria for an interview on the album, her career, and also broader subjects regarding the concept of competition among female artistes in the Nigerian music industry, and many more.


below are excerpts from the interview.



On her switch in style after ‘ Johnny’ :


“Yes I agree that there was a switch from before ‘Johnny’ to that point in time after I released ‘Johnny’, But it wasn’t intentional…We didn’t see it coming, we didn’t plan it. It all started from the hairstyle, then it transcened into the attire, and it manifested itself in my delivery and attitude on-screen.”


On the concept of Nigeria having a throne for female musicians: There are several thrones. If there are thrones for guys, then there are thrones for females. But sincerely, there is only a galaxy of stars. There’s really no throne…he throne belongs to whoever is your favorite at that time.



On her music lacking diversity: People have the right to their opinions, and I definitely know that I’m in an industry where everybody wants their opinion to be heard. The least I can do is sometimes listen, and sometimes do me. If I had been listening all the time, I don’t think I would even get half way to where I am now. I probably would have quit music a long time ago. Because you even have lizards that have opinions too. If you ask the Lizard next door, the lizard would want to talk. You can’t understand their language, but they want to talk. So opinions are opinions, that’s all.



On Making ‘Grammy’ Music: A lot of people ask me “When are we going to go to the Grammys?…”Will you start making Grammy music?”

I ask them, ‘Did Justin Bieber have to change his sound to African music for you people to put it on your playlist? Mba (no). The Miriam Makeba and Angelique Kidjo that we are all referring to, if we listen to their music, it’s just about very African. It’s because they are African, that’s why they are special where they are outside the country…


You cannot lose yourself trying to find what you don’t have. I’m definitely the kind of person that doesn’t like to be in the box, so I don’t say no to any genre of music. I’m just going to go with the flow, and definitely be God’s grace we just will get the Grammy. But I’m trying to be an example of any other person by myself.

MTN Surprise Plan: How To Subscribe To MTN 5GB + N2560 Airtime For Just N2000




Mtn has surprised us with another tripping offer which i think is cool to go for if not for anything but for the Airtime that is accompanied with the data.


Before now, we use to pay N2,500 to subscribe for MTN 4.5GB data but now you can get 5GB including free N2560 Airtime to call any network for just N2000. Isn't that a good development by MTN? Though we expect more affordable data plans but this one is one step closer to achieving that.



How To Activate This Data Plan

==> If you are not on MTN TrueTalk, Simply migrate to MTN Truetalk by dialing *400#
==> Recharge N2000 on your MTN line
==> Send D2000 to 131 in an SMS to get the offer. Both the data and call is valid for 30days.

Check your account balance with *556# and you will see the airtime. You can also dial *559# to check your data balance.



.Wait! There is another one...
Do you know you can as well get N1950 free credit and 100MB data with only N500?
To get this, you must be on MTN TrueTalk tariff plan, then load your line with N500
and SMS V500 to 131 you will be given both the data and airtime but this time, its valid for just 7 days.


I am expecting competition from other networks like Etisalat, Airtel and glo. They need to counter MTN or they loose a good number of their customers especially
this period of free data scarcity. With more competition, the subscribers will gain.
