Paris Hilton Causes Religious War And 'Insults Mecca' By Opening Store In The Holy City

Paris Hilton is no stranger to controversy and scandal, but now the
socialite has managed to upset an entire religion!

The hotel heiress best known for sex tapes, flesh-baring skimpy
outfits and brushes with the law has sparked outrage in the Middle
East by opening a new shop in the Saudi Arabian Holy City of Mecca.

Hilton made the announcement on November 14 that her bag and accessory
collections were to be sold there, tweeting: "Loving my beautiful new
store that just opened at Mecca Mall in Saudi Arabia!"

The Twitter message quickly sparked an angry backlash complaining
about 31-year-old Paris pimping her products in the holy land, with a
slew of messages from Saudis voicing their disgust at the business
venture.

"Wahhabis at work! Historic religious sites in Medina are being
destroyed, while Paris Hilton opens a new store in Mecca mall," wrote
one critic, while another commented: "So Paris Hilton opened a handbag
store in MECCA? The world is a corrupt place at the moment. Someone
please send me to Mars."

The shopping center, also referred to as Makkah Mall, will be Hilton's
5th store in Saudi Arabia and her 42nd world wide. Paris managed to
insult the whole gay community in September by going on a homophobic
rant in a New York City taxi cab.

UNIVERSITY OF ABUJA shut down due to STUDENTS protests over the non-ACCREDITATION of some courses

For the second time this year, authorities of the University of Abuja
have shut down the institution following students' protest. Despite
the fact that second semester examination was already underway, the
students' protest which led to major roads and huge traffic congestion
resulted in the institution being shut down.

According to Sahara Reporters, the students went on a rampage to
protest the non-accreditation of some of their courses. The
accreditation panel of the National University Commission had recently
refused to certify some of the courses being run by the university.
Some of the courses are in the Faculty of Engineering, Agriculture and
Sciences.

The protest, which commenced at 6:00 AM, was started by students from
the Faculty of Engineering. Many students soon joined in blocking the
main gate of the school to protest harsh conditions of education and
general mismanagement of the university by officials the students
regard as incompetent and irresponsible.

Some students said the university is in poor condition as inhabitants
of the girls hostel lack of water supply which forces them to fetch
water from the boys hostel. Student leaders of the protest said the
school is also bedeviled with over populated classes, cancelled
lectures, lack of library facilities and lecture halls as well as the
refusal of the school authorities to allow for independent student
union elections.

The protests quickly spread as several students took to the street
just as some of their colleagues began sitting for their first
semester examinations, which ought to start on Monday. The protest led
to the cancellation of examination in various classes slated for the
day as lecturers and invigilators abandoned the two campuses to
safety.

It would be recalled that in April, the management of the institution
closed the University after a violent protest by students resulted in
a breakdown of law and order in the school community.

The students had protested the suspension of four courses offered by
the University - Medicine, Veterinary medicine, Engineering and
Agriculture which failed to get accreditation from the NUC.

It is hoped that the relevant authorities would look into the cause of
protests and find a lasting solution soon. It is bad enough that the
students were so disturbed by the non-accreditation of their courses
and poor standards of education that they had to take their protests
to the streets. Shutting down the University would only result in
wasting useful time and unnecessarily prolong the students stay at the
University.

REV. KING APPEARS IN COURT After 5 Years Death Sentence

It has been five years since the General-Overseer of the Christian
Praying Assembly, Chukwuemeka Ezeugo, a.k.a Rev. King was convicted
and sentenced to death by Justice Joseph Oyewole of Ikeja High court.
However, the convict was in court again yesterday to appeal against
the death penalty on him.

It could be recalled that the infamous Pastor was arraigned on
September 26, 2006. He was later convicted and sentenced to death by
hanging on January 11, 2007 for charges of murder and attempted
murder.

At the hearing of his appeal, Mr. Olalekan Ojo, who handled his brief,
while adopting his written address as well as his reply brief, urged
the court to set aside the judgment of the trial court.

The prosecuting party; Lagos State government, represented by
Solicitor-General, Mr. Lawal Pedro, SAN, however, urged the court to
uphold Justice Oyewole's verdict. "We urge your Lordships to dismiss
this appeal". Pedro said.

During the trail of Ezeugo, the prosecuting counsel had argued that
the convict poured petrol on the diseased, Uzor and five others. Uzoh
died August 2, 2006 , 11 days after the incident.

But Ojo, counsel to the convict, had disagreed, claiming that Ezeugo
was not guilty of the crime and was not present when the incident
happened. He also argued that the deceased had in two statements she
made after the incident and before her death, stated that she got
burnt in a generator accident and that the cleric was not responsible
for her injuries, yet they were not admitted in evidence.

The lawyer said that Justice Oyewole's refusal to admit the exhibits
tendered before him led to a great miscarriage of justice, thus the
verdict of a death sentence should be reconsidered.

TB JOSHUA Sponsors Nigerian Students for PhD in OXFORD UNIVERSITY for £100,000 (N26m)

Nigerian Pastor T.B. Joshua, well known for his expansive
philanthropic endeavours, shocked congregants at his church, The
Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN).

on Sunday 18th November 2012 when it was revealed he has sponsored a
Nigerian student to study a PhD in the University of Oxford to the
tune of £100,000, approximately N26 million.
Miss Yinka Oduwole, who introduced herself as one of the youth who was
brought up in The SCOAN and worked there extensively, testified how
she had gained admission to study a PhD in Engineering Science in
Oxford University, UK after a successful Master's Programme in
University College London (UCL). Yinka, who was equally sponsored in
her Master's Degree in Broadband Communication in UCL in which she
came out with a distinction, said Prophet T.B.

Joshua and Emmanuel TV Partners had paid the sum of £100,000 to enable
her to study for a PhD in the prestigious Oxford University."My advice
to youth all over the world is that they should pray as if everything
depends on God and work as if everything depends on them," Yinka, also
a First-Class graduate from the University of Lagos, told the
congregation and viewers worldwide on Emmanuel TV, equally counselling
the youth to find a job in the church and actively engage in godly
activities.

TB Joshua also revealed in the service how footballer Ogenyi Onazi,
the SS Lazio starlet who was recently promoted to the Super Eagles of
Nigeria and scored on his debut against
Venezuela, was brought up in the church and worked there as well
before attaining his current sporting success.

Joshua revealed how he had sponsored Onazi and his colleague Sani
Emmanuel to trial in clubs around the world including Premier League
giants Chelsea and Tottenham, before arriving in SS Lazio, where he is
currently playing for the senior team.

Joshua revealed that close to $1m was spent in this process, to ensure
the duo went to the right club to reach the heights of their
potential. According to Joshua, the reward for raising up such young
people to become leaders of tomorrow in every field of expertise is
immeasurable in monetary or material terms.

"What you make happens for others, God makes happen for you. You are
raised to raise others," Joshua exhorted the crowd, counselling them
to consider the future of their own children and what they were doing
with their lives.

Forbes estimated that Joshua has spent up to $ 20m in charitable
activities alone in the last three years. Thousands of less privileged
students are currently studying in universities across Nigeria and
around the world courtesy of SCOAN's scholarship program.

Justin Bieber & Selena Gomez Spotted Together After 2012 AMAs in Romance

Ah, young love. It looks like Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez have
reunited yet again this weekend--but this time, no drama. Multiple
eyewitnesses tell our source that the former (and maybe soon
rekindled?) couple were spotted leaving the Nokia Theatre together
hand-in-hand (!) after the 2012 American Music Awards tonight. If
you're replaying the awards show in your head to try and remember
seeing Gomez in the crowd, don't.

She wasn't there. One source explains that the former Wizards of
Waverly Place actress, who was dressed casually in jeans and a dark
top, must have arrived at the end of the show because she was nowhere
in the theater. Once Biebs was done taking press photos, off they
want.

Before meeting up with Selena, however, the singer had a different
lady on his arm: his mom. Awww! This would be the perfect end to
Bieber's night--the 18-year-old walked away with three American Music
Awards: Favorite Pop/Rock Artist, Album and Artist of the Year.
