He picked a fight with the wrong girl.
''Pollyana Viana was waiting for an Uber in front of her apartment in Rio de Janeiro. A gentleman sat down next to her, a little too close for comfort, and asked her for the time.This was a dangerous neighborhood and Viana was getting bad ImageImageImageImage
vibes from this guy. She didn't respond. Then he said, “This is a gun”, as he pulled out an object from his pocket covered by his other hand. “Give me your cellphone.”
Viana was not a patient woman or very sympathetic under the circumstances. She did what any 115 lbs. (53 kilos)
professional mixed martial arts competitor would do. Viana stood up, punched him twice in the face, kicked him in the head and placed him in a choke hold.
A passerby called the police and took this photograph a minute or two later.Viana also held onto to the mugger's weapon.
Apparently he was not sharp enough to notice the difference between a gun and a piece of cardboard.There is a moral to this story. If you are a mugger in training, do not choose a victim that is wearing a UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) tee shirt. A piece of cardboard will
not protect you''

"GDP rebasing debate is orchestrated distraction, public relations gimmick - APC" - by: Lai Mohammed
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as an orchestrated distraction and a mindless public relations gimmick the ongoing hullabaloo about the rebasing of Nigeria's GDP

In a statement issued in Washington, DC, US, on Thursday by its Interim National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said coming after the damning World Bank report which
declared Nigeria as one of the countries harbouring the largest population of poor people in the world, there is no doubt that the

When the NBS rebased the economy in 2014 and Nigeria became Africa's biggest economy,read what Lai Mohammed the then opposition APC National secretary said about the rebasing👇👇
Rebasing of the Nigerian Economy:The APC perspective.
''The Federal Government has only succeeded in
opening itself to ridicule. This is because if ever there was a clear play at oxymoron, this is it: The largest economy with the largest population of the poor; the largest economy with the largest population of the unemployed; the largest economy with the largest population of
citizens living in darkness, and the largest economy with the worst infrastructure. The APC said the government carried its joke too far by giving the impression that the emergence of the Nigerian economy as the largest in Africa was a function of the economic policies under the

-Governor Godwin Obaseki

''While we do not want to join issues with the Federal Ministry of Finance, we believe it is our duty to offer useful advice for the benefit of our country. Image
The Minister of Finance, Budget and National Planning, Mrs. Zainab Ahmed should rally Nigerians to stem the obvious fiscal slide facing our country.
Rather than play the Ostrich, we urge the government to take urgent steps to end the current monetary rascality, so as to prevent
the prevailing economic challenge from degenerating further.
We believe it is imperative to approach the Nigerian project with all sense of responsibility and commitment and not play to the gallery because ultimately,

''If you can make 7.5% per month, you don’t need investors and equally don’t need marketing, or to sell a teaching course. All such an investor needs is a small amount of money and 100% focus on your craft.
The reason they are propositioning you to invest in their
magic venture is because they don’t make 7.5% per month and they need your money to fill a gap.
Anyone who can consistently make 7.5% a month will be the richest person in the world in a few years.
Be careful,guys.I can assure you that less than .01% of FX traders can make more
than 2% per month.
“If 2% per month is so difficult to achieve, how can these magicians offer you a 15% return?
You will lose your money.
Don’t do it.”
Please note that 7.5% per month is 90% per annum. In this scenario, it means you can start with N1 million and
