FREEDOM: Shi’ite Women Protest in Kaduna

By -

Members of the Sisters Forum of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria (SFIMN), popularly called the Shi'ite, yesterday protested at the Kaduna Central Market to demand the unconditional release of their leader, Sheik Ibrahim El-Zakzaky.
He has been in custody for over 50 days.
Addressing reporters, their leader, Lubabatu Alhassan, urged Nigerians to join them to oppose misuse of power and authority against unarmed citizens by the government.
She said: "The indiscriminate and extra-judicial killing of unarmed civilians by the Army calls for condemnation within and outside the country. It calls for investigation into the worst crime against humanity.
"Following this senseless and inhuman act perpetrated by the state, using the Army, hundreds of children have become orphans and women widows.
"Since the pogrom, the government and Army have embarked on propaganda, including the use of sectarian sentiments to induce phobia against the Islamic Movement and its members, to cover up for and justify their crime against humanity."
The group accused the Kaduna State government of joining forces with the Army to demolish their centre and their leader's home in Zaria, to cover up the evidence left by the Army.
It vowed not to be part of the Judicial Commission of Enquiry set up by the government until its leader is released.
Alhassan said: "The Judicial Commission of Enquiry can better be described as a commission of indictment, where carefully selected arch-enemies of the Movement, and core sectarians were sworn in to investigate the incident along selected points of reference that are inconsiderate of the brutal and indiscriminate killing of our brothers and sisters."

ADULTS TALK: Who Should Say ‘THANK YOU’ After Sex?

Male Angle Don't trivialise it When I first wondered about this question, I thought it was something actually ridiculous, but after having discussed it with my wife and a few friends, I must say that I agree with a lot of the things everyone said. Let me explain here. I definitely agree it can be a little sexy to say it, but it depends on the familiarity and the relationship you both have. But I also completely understand how many people can be made to feel like a used piece of crap, a prostitute, or it just being plain awkward if they get thanked every time they had sex with their partners. I can see it from both sides. But it just depends on the situation. Men also have the same issues to think about. For us, it is also about being put on the center stage and our sexual performance is being verified, acknowledged and praised or abused. It's like a prized bull or horse being praised while being used for breeding. A lot of men will even question why there should even be a ne...
