A wedding party in Yemen turned into a bloodbath when a guest dancing to Gangnam Style shot dead at least three people after apparently losing control of his AK-47. Horrific video of the incident was uploaded to YouTube showing a group of guests performing the moves to the hit song by South Korean pop star Psy. Among them is one man waving his assault rifle as he spins round on the dance floor while others look on. When the song reaches its chorus, shots can be heard as the gunman sprays bullets all around him. One of the victims can be seen on the ground in a pool of blood after suffering a head wound. Another man writhes in agony as guests drag the bodies away, while the screams of terrified witnesses fill the night air. Although it is illegal in many parts of Yemen to carry weapons during weddings, gunfire during such celebrations is common practice The video could not be independently verified. It is also not known if the gunman was arrested after the incident

  Millions of viewers all across France and Europe were on edge as they tuned in to see whether Doria Tillier would present her Canal+ weather forecast NAKED on the evening of November 20, 2013, Wednesday, as she promised. The French model and weathergirl, Doria, vowed to take her clothes off should France pull off a remarkable comeback from 2-0 down against Ukraine in their play-off match on Tuesday. They did that by winning 3-0 at the Stade de France and qualifying for FIFA World Cup 2014 in Brazil. Tillier didn't disappoint, giving a bare, yet professional performance in front of the television cameras. It may not have been the video you were expecting though, as the former model and actress was filmed in the distance in the tiny hamlet of ‘Poil’, and it is there where her plans became clear. ‘A Poil’, in French, translates as ‘stark naked’, or ‘IN THE NUDE’ in English. You can't argue with the facts! After the attention and ratings she and

  Journalists and pressmen have been barred from the wedding ceremony between Tiwa Savage and her soon-to-be hubby, Tunji ‘Tee-Billz’ Balogun, which started in the morning of November 23, 2013, Saturday. Security officials from Bolt Events security company and soldiers stationed at the Ark Vicinity, Lekki – the venue of the event – have refused to allow journalists with video and photo cameras into the premises despite showing up with their invitation and access cards. “It is the instruction we were given. Even guests will not be allowed to use their camera phones to take pictures of the couple,” one of the security men told a group of journalists. TheNetNG informs that the celebrity couple gave the video rights of the wedding ceremony to HipTV. It is believed the couple wants to control what is reported. A photojournalist who claims the couple invited him to the wedding says he surprised he has been refused entry. “ I’m leaving ”, said the irate journa

The Anambra governorship election has continued to generate more controversies with candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Chris Ngige, Labour Party, Ifenayi Uba and the National Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Mr Victor Umeh, exchanging comments in grievance. Part of the claims of the APC and the Labour Party (LP) are that minors voted in the election that was declared inconclusive by the electoral commission, with a supplementary election scheduled for November 30. On Channels Television’s Saturday morning programme, Sunrise, the two parties presented an alleged Voters’ Register that had the image of a minor voter marked, claiming that minors voted in the election, which had only 24.04 per cent of the registered voters participating.

In a new interview with  Punch, the Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa, Timaya said he dated someone who had a bad record and that affected him. Timaya and actress Empress Njamah dated for a few years. Their much publicized affair ended in 2009. “You should not date somebody who already has a negative record. In my own case, it affected me at that time. I feel that a relationship should be between two people and not exposed to the rest of the world. Only a smart man is able to keep his relationship private." “You see, Desmond Elliot and Jimmy Jatt are both married, but you will never see their wives in public. Naturally I’m a private person. The only thing that takes me out of my shell is my music, which is what I do for a living. It seems that the only thing people know about me is that ugly episode. So I don’t like to talk about it,” he says, adding that he has learnt a lesson from the experience." Timaya says
