Another tornado hits Oklahoma, nine injured - AP
At least three tornadoes touched down in Oklahoma, including one in
Tulsa, and two more hit Arkansas on Thursday as a powerful storm system
moved through the middle of the country. At least nine people were
injured.
The National Weather Service confirmed at least one tornado touched down Thursday night in the Tulsa suburb of Broken Arrow. However, the tornado did not appear to be a strong twister like the deadly one in suburban Oklahoma City last week.
Meteorologist Pete Snyder with the weather service's Tulsa office said it appeared the roofs of some buildings were damaged, and police told the Tulsa World that they didn't have any reports of buildings being destroyed.

Amigo Supermarket Owner in Abuja’s Wonderland Amusement Park linked to terrorism
Nigerian security agencies have linked a co-owner of
two major ongoing businesses in the nation’s capital as a ring leader
in a major terrorist operation in the country.
In a statement by the spokesman of the Joint Task Force in Kano,
Ikedichi Iweha, Fauzi Fawad, the co-owner of Amigo Supermarket and
Wonderland Amusement Park, was named as a member of a Lebanese Hezbollah
terrorist cell in Nigeria.
Wonderland is Abuja’s biggest and most popular amusement park, while
Amigo is one of the largest supermarkets in the Nigerian capital.
The JTF said Mr. Fawad’s name was mentioned by “all those arrested,”
for being in possession of heavy weapons, and other terrorism related
activities.
Mr. Fawad is now on the run, the JTF said.
The JTF said it arrested three Lebanese suspected of owning the large cache of arms recovered at a bunker in the city.
Jonathan’s Half-time: The Hard Facts By Nasir Ahmad El-Rufai
We began the assessment of President Goodluck Jonathan’s
administration by listing a number of the campaign promises he made in
2011 and added that the achievement of those promises was not easy to
measure because in essence, they were just broad generalizations with no
targets, deliverables or timelines. Perhaps, that was the point of
making such vague promises; so that performance cannot be measured and
failures would not be easily evident.
This week, we would rely on field visits and the feedback received from readers who responded via email, phone and SMS addresses provided last week. These responses along with other published facts and opinions would form the basis for assessing the Presidents’ performance. Some readers used the platform provided to engage in abuse, diversion and bigotry that the Jonathanians have perfected as response to any questions demanding their accountability. They forget that we are thick-skinned and do not respond to brainless insults. Many more provided on-the-ground status of projects and programs for which we are grateful.
While the perception amongst majority of respondents is that the Jonathan government is significantly underperforming; most of those who work with him or indirectly benefit from the schema of ethnic division, corruption and impunity his administration has perfected are engulfed in praise singing and forget to remind him of his many promises. Let us look to some of the specific commitments summarized last week.

The Love Story of Comedian Princess and Her Husband
Popular Nigerian female comedian, Princess, and her movie producer/director husband, Adeshola Jeremiah, tied the knot on Wednesday 8th May 2013 at the Balmoral Hall, Oregun, Lagos. It was indeed a happy day for 'Madam' Princess who had almost lost of hope of finding a husband.
Below is their very interesting love story...
On what attracted her to Adeshola Jeremiah
Well he is a quiet person and if not for the fact that I am into entertainment, I also like my privacy, I don’t like unnecessary show-off. If I go somewhere and they don’t recognize me, that is very okay by me, I just love to be myself.
How They Met
He saw me when I went for their program in Odunfa Cancus (A Yoruba Theatre Group). I went because of a friend of mine Latifat, who was also trained there. She was in UNILAG and my junior in Theatre Arts. So I went there and that was where he saw me and that was like so many years ago in 2005.
