Photo: The father/daughter kiss that's got people talking
So this is a pic of a father and his grown daughter kissing on the lips. That's Bill Belichick, the head coach for the New England Patriots of the NFL. He celebrated by kissing his daughter Amanda on the lips after his team won the NFL Super Bowl last night. Most people thought the kiss was too intimate and too weird. Many said it looked like they were making out. What do you think? Should parents be kissing their adult children on the lips, in public? You find this weird?
The difference between APC and PDP - Governor Fashola
Speaking during an APC meeting with organized private sector at Marina, Lagos today February 2nd, Lagos state governor, Babatunde Fashola, told his audience the difference between APC & PDP
"The manifesto of the APC is designed to address 2015 problems going on to 2019 while PDP has is a 1999 manifesto and that probably explains the disconnect between our realities and the realities that you hear. The transformation that has been put forth has headed south not west. The Naira has weakened, interest rates has come up and it is for us to chose whether we want four more years of that and the Naira is essential in a free fall in an economy that is currently import denominated and it would only mean that the purchasing power of our disposable income would continue to reduce." he said

SOLUDO VS IWEALA: The pot and the kettle
The office of Dr. Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, the co-ordinating Minister of the Economy has promptly responded to the content of a recently published article titled “BUHARI Vs JONATHAN – Beyond the election.”
The article which was written by the former Governor of the Central Bank, Chukwuma Soludo, as an attempt to proffer solutions to our severe social and economic challenges simply echoed the prevailing popular sentiments regarding the failure, of President Jonathan’s Economic Policies, to improve the lot of our people.
Iweala-and-soludo1However, although Soludo’s contribution does not contain any fresh mind boggling revelations on the incompetence of the current Economic Management Team, his glowing reference to the economic performance during Obasanjo’s era should ordinarily be sweet, comforting notes to Ngozi who was the leader of the Economic ‘wizards’ who were largely seconded from their responsibilities with the IMF and World Bank to rejig the Nigerian economy;
nonetheless, Soludo’s latter day condemnation of the “terrible policy choices” made by the Honourable Minister in her second coming in Jonathan’s administration, probably stung madam Minister as a betrayal of espirit des corps. Consequently, the Iron Lady quickly fired back in a Press release; in her response, according to Vangard: Dr. Iweala noted that “It is a sad day for Nigeria and the Economics profession that someone like Soludo, a former CBN governor, should write such an article.

The Ugly side of Buhari and Jonathan
Opinion polls commissioned by ANAP Foundation and conducted by NOI Polls (using Gallup methodology) show that President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan (GEJ) and his main challenger, Major-General Mohammadu Buhari (Buhari) are currently running neck-to-neck in the 2015 Presidential race. The difference between them in terms of potential votes nation wide is statistically insignificant because it is dwarfed considerably by the much larger percentage of voters who remain “Undecided” – and so the race is truly too close to call.
