Journalist, Jaafar Jaafar who released multiple videos of Kano state governor, Umar Ganduje, collecting bribes in dollars from some of the state contractors, has denied claims by the governor that the videos were doctored. Jaafar who appeared before the state house of Assembly investigative panel today, told the panel that from his investigation, the governor collected bribe from every contractor that was employed by his administration. ''More than two years ago, a contractor friend of mine complained to me that the governor had been receiving kickbacks, ranging from 15 to 25 percent, for every project executed in the state from contractors. We then agreed to plant spy cameras on his kaftan lapel so that he can capture the brazen act in hard evidence. He captured at least 15 clips, nine of which fully showed the governor’s face, body and hands collecting bundles of dollars. “Before DAILY NIGERIAN publishes stories, pictures or videos on its website, the editors sub...

The reason Manchester United chiefs are unwilling to sell midfielder, Paul Pogba has surfaced. Pogba has been heavily linked with a move to La Liga champions, Barcelona for the past few months. The 25-year-old reportedly  agreed to a deal ‘in principle’  to join Barcelona few days ago. But Daily Mail is reporting that the Red Devils’ hierarchy are afraid to sell the France international because of the negative impact it would have on the club’s finances. The report claimed that United’s executives are against Pogba’s exit because there is a shortage of players who could match the midfielder’s commercial value. Pogba joined the Old Trafford club for £89 million from Juventus in 2016. The 2018 World Cup winner had been  stripped of United’s vice-captaincy  last month. He will hope to lead Man United to victory when they take on Everton this weekend in the Premier League. Source:  http://dailypost.ng/2018/10/25/epl-real-reason-man-utd-fear-sell...

They have warned that unless the figure was accepted by the government, they would call for an indefinite nationwide ...

A London university student believes they've come up with a way for dads to breastfeed their babies. Marie-Claire Springham, a product design student at Central Saint Martins, is in the process of making a "chestfeeding kit" to enable dads breastfeed their newborns. The idea behind the product is for dads to be able to help mums who are struggling to breastfeed or mums who are too sick or incapacitated after childbirth. Still in the conception stage, the kit is yet to be tested, but contains a cocktail of hormones that the man would take while his partner is pregnant, in order to "grow milk ducts". The main hormone is progestin, a form of the female sex hormone progesterone, which helps to stimulate the production of milk-producing glands. This would be followed by a round of domperidone which is often given to mums who are experiencing difficulties with breastfeeding as it encourages the production of prolactin, a hormone which tells the woman'...
