Diezani is alleged to have bought the edifice between 2011 and 2012

Vanguard reports that the money which was said to allegedly belong to Diezani follows the announcement of acting chairman of the anti-corruption body Ibrahim Magu on Thursday, February 9 that 9.75 million dollars and 750,000 pounds were recovered from a residence in Kaduna state.

The EFCC said Diezani reportedly bought the building in Lagos’ top class location Banana Island between 2011 and 2012 at a total cost of $37.5m from the YF Construction Development and Real Estate.

The commission said: “The aggressive drive by the EFCC to recover all hidden assets of former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, who is under investigation for corruption and money laundering, produced another breakthrough this week with the discovery of a property acquired through shell companies by the former minister at upscale Banana Island in Lagos.

“The property is a 15-storey edifice comprising 18 flats and six penthouses.

“The property was acquired by the former minister between 2011 and 2012 at a total cost of $37.5m from the developers, YF Construction Development and Real Estate. The property was allegedly acquired in the name of a shell company, Rusimpex Limited under the control of certain Mr. Afamefuna Nwokedi of Stillwaters law firm, in Lagos.”

South-West governors to meet in Ekiti on Monday to tackle development challenges

Idowu Adelusi, the chief press secretary to the Ekiti state governor, in a statement on Thursday, February 9, said the ‎meeting would be in furtherance of the resolve of the governors of the six states of the South-West to meet on a regular basis to continue to pursue a unified frame-work for tackling the development challenges of the region.

The meeting is expected to take some critical decisions in respect of the mission of the development agenda for Western Nigeria, for which all the state governments have declared their commitment.

Governors from the following states are to attend the meeting, namely Ekiti, Osun, Ondo, Oyo, Ogun and Lagos.

Last year, the South west governors were engaged in an economic forum to discuss the issue of finance especially how it affects the region especially in the economically challenging period.

The economic forum was held in Ibadan, Oyo state on Monday, November 21 and was hosted by Governor Abiola Ajimobi.

In attendance were Governor Akinwunmi Ambode of Lagos, Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun and Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti.

Will Buhari’s death bring solution to Nigeria’s problems?

The rate at which our people are moving from mountain to campgrounds in prayer; wishing their President Muhammadu Buhari urgent death is very shocking and disappointing. Truly, the president is very sick and he's receiving treatments abroad. But, the question that has been troubling my mind is that, when one's relative is not feeling too well, do we pray he dies, irrespective of any reason whatsoever?

Trump finds the limits of executive power

 

President Donald Trump suffered more than a legal defeat of his immigration ban Thursday night.

He ran smack into the limits of executive power.

Three federal judges unanimously refused to restore the White House's controversial travel ban, laying down the most significant marker yet that Trump's vision of an administration rooted in the muscular use of executive power -- similar to that he enjoyed as a business leader -- will not go unchallenged.

Trump's travel ban blocked

• Ruling maintains block on travel ban
• Threats made against judges
• How Trump lost: Views from all sides
• Key lines from court ruling
• Court ruling: FULL TEXT

In a stinging rebuke, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the administration's argument that the judiciary lacked the authority to block the travel ban as "contrary to the fundamental structure of our constitutional democracy."

Full text: 9th Circuit rules against reinstating travel ban

The tone and content of the decision immediately called into question Trump's gamble in enacting such a fundamental reshaping of the nation's immigration laws through presidential order rather than a law debated and passed by Congress.

New doubts

The embarrassment of Thursday's ruling raises new doubts about the effectiveness of the President's unorthodox method of doing business. In this case, the tendency to draw up plans without much outside input has not served the White House well. The relative inexperience of Trump's core advisers may also have been a factor.

It is now certain that the saga of the immigration ban, which has consumed the presidency for two of its three weeks and is distracting from other priorities, will run on indefinitely with possible damaging consequences for the young administration.

The ban and its impact

• What we know so far
• What it's like in the 7 impacted countries
• How the countries were chosen
• What the ban says: The full text
• What to know about the restrictions
• Is the ban legal?
• These are the people directly impacted
• The ban's Christian focus
• A family's plight just got more complicated
• Bergen: Trump's big mistake
• All of Trump's executive orders, memos and proclamations
• Comparing Trump to previous presidents

But the President, who came to office predicting an avalanche of wins and warning that only he could fix the multiple crises he diagnosed as ailing the national soul, is a long way from admitting a final defeat. Drawing on the pugilistic instincts that sustained his business career, he dug in for a counter attack.

"SEE YOU IN COURT," Trump tweeted minutes after the ruling came down, previewing a possible appeal to the Supreme Court that would set up an even more dramatic and consequential showdown.

A few minutes later, the President began the task of using the decision to galvanize his devoted armies of supporters who sent him to Washington to carry out reforms exactly on the lines of his original executive order.

Threats against judges in immigration ban cases leads to increased security

"It's a political decision, we're going to see them in court, and I look forward to doing that," Trump told reporters at the White House. "We have a situation where the security of our country is at stake and it's a very very serious situation."

The ruling came with Trump waging feuds on multiple fronts with various lawmakers on Capitol Hill and with his own approval ratings at lower levels than ever seen for a newly inaugurated president.

Democratic opponents hailed the decision as an affirmation of the principles on which the nation is based and a precursor of likely pitched legal battles to come on the extent of Trump's power.

 

Check and balance'

"I am pleased that our check and balance system is working in this country," Ben Cardin, the top Democrat on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, told CNN's Wolf Blitzer. "It shows that the courts are going to be there when President Trump uses his power and exceeds his constitutional authority. I think that is an important message that our constitutional system will work."

But the President's allies quickly moved to contain the damage and to frame the terms of the political and legal fight ahead.

Arkansas GOP Sen. Tom Cotton said the order was plainly legal and argued the courts shouldn't second guess the national security decisions of the president.

 

"This misguided ruling is from the Ninth Circuit, the most notoriously left-wing court in America and the most reversed court at the Supreme Court," Cotton said. "I'm confident the administration's position will ultimately prevail."

The Supreme Court could still rule in favor of the administration, either on the merits of the case or the issue of standing of foreigners on whose behalf the challenge to Trump's executive order was brought by the state of Washington.

But the possibility of the nation's highest bench being called upon to clear up a growing legal imbroglio will also open a new political fight. The Supreme Court is currently lacking its ninth member owing to the prolonged Washington standoff following the death last year of Justice Antonin Scalia.

Should the Court hear the case and split 4-4, the ruling of the 9th Circuit would be affirmed. That fact alone adds heat to the confirmation duel looming over the nomination of Trump's first Supreme Court pick, Neil Gorsuch.

Senator: Gorsuch should go public with Trump criticism

Republicans now have even more of an incentive to ram the confirmation through the Senate using the "nuclear option" to sidestep a Democratic filibuster. Democrats are even less likely to cooperate with a swift process.

 

Who is Judge Neil Gorsuch? 00:48

The 9th Circuit decision, however, seemed designed to shape the future arguments about the content of the executive order and the administration's attempts to significantly stiffen the government's anti-terrorism campaign.

It went far further in its ruling than the simple question of the stay on the travel ban imposed by a lower court, taking pains to dismantle the administration's assertion that the travel ban was vital to protecting Americans against an influx of foreign terror threats from the seven named nations, Iran, Iraq, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen, Libya and Syria.

"The Government has pointed to no evidence that any alien from any of the countries named in the Order has perpetrated a terrorist attack in the United States," the ruling said.

"Rather than present evidence to explain the need for the Executive Order, the Government has taken the position that we must not review its decision at all.

Gucci Mane & Nicki Minaj Reunite

It seems like Nicki Minaj is really taking this new year seriously. After announcing her breakup from Meek Mill, she is making the rounds reconnecting with some people she’d grown distant with.
The latest is Gucci Mane, who the Queens rapper took a picture with for the Gram. The Trap King shared the post with the caption “Salute and much respect to @nickiminaj Zone6 stand up!!! #staytuned Legendary” and both of them holding up six fingers.

Back in September, a reconciliation between the two didn’t seem close as Gucci told Hot 97 that his relationship with the Young Money rapper “is what it is. It ain’t even that serious. We made some records before and they were dope records but that’s in the past.”
The feud went public when the two sparred on Twitter back in 2013. Among his posts, Gucci rattled off a list of artists he didn’t mess with, including Minaj.
“Fuck jeezy. Tip. Gotti. Waka.Nicki minaj drake d a Wooh.frenchy 2 chainz coachk kkaior eminem oj rock Quavo takeoff cardo dam g,” the tweet said, before his brother claimed the account was hacked.
Nicki was among those who responded to the rant, writing, “I’m rlly cracking up. He’s fighting so hard for one more ounce of relevance. Tyga and I turned down his feature request last Thursday.”
Guwop was one of the first to show support to Minaj in her career, appearing on “Slumber Party” off her 2009 mixtape, Beam Me Up Scotty, and doing various other tracks with her.
Nicki also reunited with Drake recently, posting a photo of herself, Drizzy and Lil Wayne in the studio. Drake later hinted at a Young Money reunion concert while playing a show in London, England.

The world's best footballers: the top 100 list

Lionel Messi has taken the top spot in the Guardian's list of the world's top 100 footballers published today. See the full list and how it breaks

The Guardian's choice of the world's top 100 footballers has been unveiled today with Lionel Messi topping the list at No1.

An 11-strong international panel of experts were asked by Guardian Sport to name their top 30 players in action today and rank them in order of preference. Players were then scored on their ranking by each panellist: a No1 choice allocated 30pts, No2 29pts and so on down to selection No30, given one point.

So how did the Guardian top 100 come about? Sports editor Ian Prior explains:

Compiling such a list requires a certain confidence, some may say arrogance of judgment. Guilty, if so. Not all may agree, but it is a personal belief that these pages are currently home to perhaps the finest collective of football writers and analysts in the English language. From Daniel Taylor to Sid Lowe, Jonathan Wilson to Michael Cox, Richard Williams to Raphael Honigstein, we are blessed with writers whose knowledge covers not only the English game but who offer a genuinely global perspective.

The ranking, which has slowly been revealed in a countdown from the 20 December, is now published in full and the world's top 100 footballers are listed below for you to view.

The choice of Messi at No1, beating Cristiano Ronaldo into second place, is explained below by Sid Lowe:

There was only one name and one position on which all 11 members of the panel were in unanimous agreement; the world No1, Lionel Messi. How could we not choose him?

The debate has moved to another plane: it is not so much a question of whether Messi is the best player in the world right now, as whether Messi might just be the best player there has ever been.

Xavi, Andrés Iniesta, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Radamel Falcao, Robin van Persie, Andrea Pirlo, Yaya Touré and Edinson Cavani make up the rest of the top 10.

Four English players make it onto the list; Ashley Cole (30th), Wayne Rooney (31st), Joe Hart (65th) and John Terry (86). Despite only a few English players making it onto the top 100, the Premier League is the best represented with 27 players, followed by La Liga with 23. The chart above shows the top five leagues by the number of footballers appearing in the list.

Barcelona is the best represented club with 12 players on the list followed by Bayern Munich and Real Madrid with 10 each. Chelsea and Manchester City each have eight players on the list.

The average age for the footballers appearing on the list is 26 years old. Stephan El Shaarawy, aged 20, is the youngest player in the top 100 whilst Javier Zanetti is the oldest at 39 years old.

So how does the list break down by nationality? 16 of the players are Spanish, 12 Brazilian and 10 German. There are 8 Argentinian players on the list and both Italy and France have seven footballers on the top 100.

If you're wondering which position is the most common amongst the top 100 players then we've also broken that down too: 36 are midfielders, 29 forward, 19 defenders. The full breakdown by nationality, club and position can be found in the downloadable spreadsheet.

The full list of the world's top 100 footballers can be found below along with information on each players club, position, nationality and age. Can you do something interesting with this data?
