'World's Most Wanted Drug Lord El Chapo Declares War on ISIS

One of the world’s most wanted drug lords has reportedly ‘declared war’ on the Islamic State in a threatening letter.
Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán sent an encrypted email to the ISIS leader Abu Bakr Al Baghdadi after one of his cartel’s shipments was destroyed.
He apparently wrote:
“Your god cannot save you from the true terror that my men will levy at you if you continue to impact my operation.My men will destroy you. The world is not yours to dictate. I pity the next son of a wh*** that tries to interfere with the business of the Sinaloa Cartel.”I will have their heart and tongue torn from them.”

Top 10 Nostradamus Predictions for 2016

Michel de Nostredame known as Nostradamus was a 16th-century French philosopher who predicted many tragic events throughout history, including the Assassination of the Kennedy brothers, the rise of Hitler, the defeat of Napoleon, and the unfortunate 9/11 terrorist acts. We don’t have many seers these days who can really predict the future. Nostradamus studied astrology and various “occult” sciences and used those to predict the future. Here is a list of 10 predictions that he’s made for the year 2016.
10. Obama: The Last President
Nostradamus predicted that Obama would be victorious in the 2013 elections, but he also predicted that Mr Barack Obama would be America’s LAST president. Does that mean that the time has come for the United States to pass the torch to some one else? Who will be the next superpower? China? Russia? North Korea? Nothing is certain.
9. Unusual Weather Patterns
In his writings, Nostradamus mentioned unusual weather patterns and natural cataclysms / disasters that will intensify further than they already are. He described the events as where ‘ Water shall be seen to rise as the ground is seen to fall underneath’. We are already seeing snow in the Spring time in many parts of the world. 2015 also saw the most frigid temperatures.
8. Unusual Planetary Alignments
Nostradamus also mentioned unusual planetary alignments and other astronomical type changes that will TRIGGER massive events on earth. I hope this does not mean another earthquake or tsunami.
7. Middle East On Fire
Petrol and Oil in the Gulf states in the Middle East will be set on fire, according to Nostradamus’ predictions for 2016. Things are heating up for the Presidential elections in 2016, I wonder if this is coincidental?!
6. Explosions in the Middle East
Many explosions will occur around the Middle East area, and Nostradamus said that planes will be falling from the sky in 2016. The Middle East has seen drastic changes and civil unrest the past 4 years. The Arab Spring has intensified civil wars in over 10 countries, including in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Somalia, Libya and Syria. We already saw the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 on Mar. 8, 2014. Another plane was almost torpedoed by a North Korean missile, 2 days before. Anything is possible.
5. End of the World
Nostradamus also made an ambiguous statement that is making us believe that Iraq war/invasion was the first major sign (for our timeline) that the world as we know it is coming to an end. But there’s been so many predictions and prophecies already, especially that of the Mayan civilization, and all of them never came true.
4. White House Games
He also stated the ‘White House’ has been playing war like games , and have set out plans to destroy the world…..starting with the Middle East, where it is like a game of chess to ‘them’. Tension between the two have never been easy, especially with the War on Terror and ISIS retaliations. Both Iraq and Afghanistan has not seen peace since Americans entered the countries to bring in “democracy”.
3.The Poles Will Melt
This is where many global warming scientists and scholars are getting their information from. Could this be happening? If you look at the high temperatures up North, you’ll probably believe that the prophecy will come true. However, the South Pole is still frigid cold and no drastic temperature changes have been noted. Global Warming scientists have always said that the North Pole is becoming warmer than usual, but nothing hasd ever been mentioned about the South Pole.
2. Fate of Israel
The fate of Israel remains unclear because of Nostradamus’ predictions. However, in paragraph #34 of the Epistle, Nostradamus states that Jerusalem might be assailed on all sides, and a Western naval force (from the United States and or other nations in the New World) will help Israel in fighting the forces of its future adversaries.
1. Russia Makes Peace
If the Russians are “not” allied with Europe and the West during the beginning of this war, Nostradamus states in the Epistle that a northern king from Aquilon (an allusion to Russia) will eventually help to set things right. The United States and Russia have never seen eye to eye, especially with the conflict in Syria. It will be interesting to see how this prophecy will play out. Could the Crimean War of 2014 lead to peace with Russia? I doubt that Russia wants nothing less than world dominance, but we will wait and see what will happen.

Kobe Bryant announces his retirement


American professional basketball player Kobe Bean Bryant took to The Player’s Tribune and announced he would be retiring after this season. Read what he wrote:
Dear Basketball,
From the moment
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary
Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum
I knew one thing was real:
I fell in love with you.
A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body
To my spirit & soul.
As a six-year-old boy
Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.
I only saw myself
Running out of one.
And so I ran.
I ran up and down every court
After every loose ball for you.
You asked for my hustle
I gave you my heart
Because it came with so much more.
I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me
But because YOU called me.
I did everything for YOU
Because that’s what you do
When someone makes you feel as
Alive as you’ve made me feel.
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
And I’ll always love you for it.
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.
My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.
And that’s OK.
I’m ready to let you go.
I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
The good and the bad.
We have given each other
All that we have.
And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1
Love you always,
Kobe

I Don’t Get Awards Because Of Politics In The Industry – Burna Boy


Nigerian musician Burna boy in an interview with Fader magazine opens up on why he doesn't get awards because of politics in the industry. In his own words, he stated:
“It’s political, man. To be honest, I don’t really feel like I’m a part of the industry. Check out awards, I don’t get awards because the powers that be don’t really like me. I’m not like everyone else; I won’t do what everyone else does. They don’t like it.Everything is really political, too much politics in the industry and I’m not a very good politician.
So I don’t really involve myself in all that. I just drop hit songs, and my fan base keeps increasing.“If I was a part of the industry then I wouldn’t have shit today. Think about it. It would just be one of the songs you hear in the club and then that’s it.“But right now, you see, I don’t have the most Twitter followers or the most Instagram numbers or whatever, but the things that I do the people with one million followers can’t do it.”

Life Wasn’t All Rosy – Jay Foley


Ghanaian Radio and television personality, Jay Foley says that he didn’t have it all rosy growing up.
According to the co-host of LBC on Live 91.9 Fm, there were many things he wished he had enjoyed but could not because of the family he was from.
“Growing up was not easy for me; it was tough, I mean , I did not get it all rosy, I don’t come from a rich family, it was an average one.
“ It was my dad, my mom, my siblings, in our place of abode, managing our own affairs,” he said in an interview with Delay on the Delay Show on Viasat 1.
Giving an example of what he wished he had enjoyed, he said; “the school I attended was close to my house so every time we close I walk home and I get to see parents in cars coming for their wards in the school and I also wished I had that kind of treatment.”
The CEO of 2131 said because he was not happy with his situation, he told himself that he was going to make a difference, he was going to challenge himself and become an instrumental vessel of change in the society.
“I knew where I was coming from so I became a wild thinker, I was hungry for success, I did not want to stay there forever, I wanted things to change and I was willing to work and make that happen and I will say, that is part of the reasons why I am where I am today,” he said.
He added that his private firm 2131 is all about empowering the youth to believe in themselves and have an inner conviction that whatever they set their minds to do, they can achieve adding that “the only barricade that will stop you from achieving your dreams was you.”

Nollywood Actress Eucharia Anunobi Confesses Having A Son Out Of Wedlock


In a recent interview with the New Telegraph Newspaper, veteran Nollywood actress, who turned evangelist, Eucharia Anunobi has opened up that she got a son out of wedlock by mistake. Read excerpts from her interview:
You once said that your intimidating profile tends to discourage men from asking your hand in marriage; what is happening to your love life?
I can’t remember ever saying such a thing. I don’t know about men being scared of me (chuckles).
Well, I will take it that what you are saying is that I’m not in a relationship. Of course you know I would not want to discuss my private life. But I have to tell you what I am doing and what is not happening, I believe in things that are incubating; if it’s meant to come out, it will come out. A lot of people do not know of my commitment to my Christian life too.
How is your son doing? He must have really grown now.
Very well, we thank the God Almighty, the Lord has been faithful.
What is it like being a single parent?
It was not a deliberate choice that I have made, it came by chance, it came by mistake. God does not kill His children who have made mistakes. He would rather sustain them and tell them that He is the owner of all things. The Lord has been sustaining me as a single parent I don’t think about it, all I know is ‘God, you are the one that created me and the child that you gave to me’. So whatever that is needed of me, it was a wrong choice that I made.
Have you tried to reconcile with the father of your son?
When somebody says that I do not want to be a responsible father what do you do? You don’t take a horse to the river and force it to drink.
Is there any plan of settling down, your ideal man?
Of course, why not? Every woman says I want tall black, handsome man. We all need good things. All the good things every normal woman wants, I want it too. He must be somebody who has the spirit of God, someone who has Christ as his backbone.
What is the name of the church or the branch you pastor?
I am an associate pastor with the Fresh Oil Ministry International Church at Egbeda in Lagos. I am an ordained evangelist as well as an apostle; I am a convent speaker in and around the country. I had gone to minister in the United States of America, a lot of West African countries, and I have ministered in a lot of churches in and outside the country and some churches and organizations invite me to be their speaker at their various meetings.

Dr Cryme reacts to Reggie Rockstone suggestion


Ghanaian rapper Darlington Kwasi Agyekum popularly known as Dr. Cryme reacted to Reggie Rockstone’s recommendation that he is the perfect artiste to substitute Choirmaster, who was a member of the Praye group. On Radio Univers’ Brunch2Lunch, Dr Cryme said: “For me to be recommended, I keep saying that it is a blessing. One thing I also want to say now is that I have been a solo artiste since most people knew me. For now, everything that I plan or write is solely based on me being a solo artiste.
In most cases, solo artistes who want to upgrade do not want anyone to join them. People who always start with solo mind go with solo mind. Sometimes you guys can merge and do a collabo.
The best thing we can do like a group is to do a collabo. I will be super ready to have collaboration with them but I don’t see me being part of the group”
