The creators of a new clothing line have devised yet another means to prevent rape and help women feel safer on the streets.
The new anti rape short called AR Wear (anti-rape wear) doesn't send electric shocks like previous anti rape products, rather it frustrates the would-be rapist by making it difficult to remove either by force or stealth (in situations where the victim cannot resist because she has had too much to drink, was drugged, or is asleep).
The waist, thighs, and central panels of the shorts are protected with specially designed, cut resistant
straps and webbing.

Once the waist strap has been adjusted and locked with its unique locking device, the garment cannot be pulled down. As well as the straps at the thighs.
The thigh straps, after an initial adjustment by the wearer, prevents the leg openings from being lifted or shifted to the sides by someone else.
Below is a video the clothing company posted on how AR Wear (anti-rape wear) works

Nigerians To Experience 7 Days Of Darkness
Nigerians will experience a week-long electricity rationing that will put the country into darkness for the period.
This will be the longest period in recent years that the country would be faced with blackout.
The development is coming few days after the Federal Government declared that its hand-over of the assets and facilities of PHCN including generation and distribution plants to private firms was successful.
The authorities had explained that the problem was due to the loss of 400 megawatts following repair works being carried out by the Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC), the major suppliers of gas to the power plants particularly Afam VI Power plant.
The management of Transmission Company of Nigeria (TCN) in a statement in Abuja yesterday said there would be a reduction in generation output by 400mw, from today to Saturday, November 9, 2013. According to the statement, “this is due to the Shell Petroleum Development Company’s (SPDC) scheduled maintenance work on Okoloma gas plant supplying gas to Afam VI Power Plant, thereby leading to the shutdown of the power plant, resulting in nationwide power rationing.”
It explained further that the shutdown of Afam VI power plant became necessary to allow SPDC inspect and carry out routine maintenance work on the Okoloma natural gas station in Afam, Rivers State, to ensure its technical integrity.
“Maintenance work on Okoloma gas plant, SPDC revealed was important to guarantee continuous and uninterrupted supply of gas to Afam VI for power generation into the national grid.

'Please End Strike'' - FG Begs ASUU
The Federal Government, through Vice President Namadi Sambo, yet again appealed to the Academy Staff Union of Universities ASUU to end its four-month old strike in the interest of the students and the country.
Sambo made the appeal yesterday, during the commissioning of Bauchi State University at Gadau in the northern zone of the state.
He urged the striking lecturers to come to terms with the current reality. Recall that university lecturers have been on strike since July 1 this year with the different negotiating teams failing to broker peace between the union and the Federal Government. The lecturers have remained adamant in spite of pleas by parents, stakeholders, insisting that its action is informed by the need to save university education from total
collapse The Vice President, who is the Chairman of the Federal Government team negotiating with ASUU said on the occasion, “ASUU wants the Federal Government to shift its positions. We have already done that. It is now the turn of ASUU to shift its position and call off the strike in order to save the education sector from deteriorating.
Sambo said that Federal Government had intervened in the funding of universities through TETFUND which is an indication that government believes its transformation agenda can only be realised through sound education. He disclosed that about N2.2 billion has been approved for the Bauchi State University as special intervention fund by the Federal Government.
He pledged Federal Government’s continued support and partnership with Bauchi State on education which is the thrust of President Goodluck Jonathan’s transformation agenda saying that no nation would grow without education.
“We will continue to provide education by providing conducive teaching and learning environment to all the people.
Sambo said the present administration has embarked on total rehabilitation of railway tracks, development of irrigation farming and training of youths on ICT for wealth- creation and improvement of the people’s economy.
Speaking, Bauchi State Governor Isa Yuguda said that the idea of establishing a state university was conceived by the immediate past administration but the implementation was carried out by his administration He said the university opened on September 23, 2011 following approval by the National University Commission (NUC). According to him, the state contributed two per cent of state’s statutory allocation while the local government areas contributed five per cent for the running of the university.
Yuguda said that so far, N16.5b has been spent on construction of hostels, library, road networks and blocks of classrooms. While commending the Federal Government for its intervention in the education sector, Yuguda appealed to government to include Bauchi in the supply of textbooks by Universal Basic Education (UBE) programme.

'I did wish my sick father would die in his sleep'
"WHEN I received a frantic call from my
neighbour informing me that my dear daddy
was walking aimlessly near a shopping mall, I
just knew something wasn't right. At first, I
brushed it off as a side-effect from his new
medication, lack of sleep or just old age
kicking in. But deep down I knew it was more
than that.
"As soon as I got home, my father acted as if
everything was normal. He claimed he just got
confused with the many new shops in the area.
Initially, I fooled myself into believing the
same. However, over the months that followed,
my worst fears materialised," said Frank (not
his real name), 46.
Frank's father, who was a well-respected
retired headmaster and scholar, seemed to be
more and more confused with everyday tasks,
such as eating and showering. Soon after that
first episode, he was diagnosed with
Alzheimer's.
"I've never been very close to my father,
especially when I was in my 20s and 30s. But
when my mother died of colon cancer a few
years back and I got divorced, I moved back
into my father's house to care for him.
"We still never really got along much. Come to
think of it we were nothing more than
roommates co-existing under one roof.
"So, when my father needed help to remind
him to have dinner or take a bath, it was odd,
to say the least. But since I was the closest
relative nearby, I didn't have much of a
choice," Frank added.
He said although the initial stages of his
father's disease was mere inconvenience, the
subsequent years that followed were almost
unbearable.
"The doctors did caution me that it was going
to be a rough road to travel, so I braced
myself for the worst. But what I imagined
wasn't half as bad as reality.
"The physical strain of living with someone
with Alzheimer's is bad, but the emotional
burden is much worse.
"As I watched my father's physical strength
deteriorate, I knew that I could carry the
weight. But mentally and emotionally, I was
barely hanging on as I watched him slip into a
closed, dark area in his mind, a place where
none of us who is 100 per cent mentally stable
and alert will ever understand.
"It may sound cruel, but at his worst, I did
wish that he would die in his sleep.
"His condition was worse than a baby. He
didn't know what was going on at all.
"I would sit and watch television with him, but
I never really knew what was going on in his
mind. He didn't show any emotion and I felt
that I was talking to a wall many times."
"As strange as it may seem, I envied my
friends who were caregivers to their cancer-
stricken parents because they could at least
still communicate their feelings, wishes and
show their love in the short time they had left
with them.
"My dad died in his sleep when he was 82, four
years after he was diagnosed.
"During those four years, I felt more alone
than I had ever been. Unfortunately, I didn't
have anyone to talk to about my feelings
because I didn't think anyone would
understand.

Nigeria: Gunmen kill groom, 30 in wedding convoy
YOLA, Nigeria: A government spokesman says
suspected Islamic militants attacked a
wedding convoy in northeast Nigeria and killed
more than 30 people including the groom.
Adamawa state spokesman Ahmad Sajoh said
the wedding ceremony had taken place in Firgi
village in neighboring Borno state and the
groom and guests were driving home to
Adamawa when they were attacked Saturday
on the highway between Bama and Gwoza towns
in Borno.
That road runs alongside forests that are a
known hideout of Islamic militants from the
Boko Haram terrorist network.
Last week suspected extremists attacked a
military checkpoint on the road and witnesses
said they killed at least four security force
members.
Attacks continue though the military has
driven insurgents from major towns in the
northeast under a more than 5-month-old
state of emergency
UK Government Backs Down On £3,000 Visa Bonds
The UK government
has announced plans to
cancel the £3,000
cash bond that visitors
from 'high risk'
countries, including
Nigeria, were to put
up to enter Britain.
The government is to abandon a controversial
plan to impose £3,000 immigration bonds on
visitors from “high-risk” countries in Africa
and Asia after Nick Clegg threatened to block
the policy.
The move will be seen by Labour as a
humiliating U-turn for Theresa May, the home
secretary. It came after David Cameron
backed off from a full-scale confrontation
with the Liberal Democrat leader, who was
blocking the scheme’s progress through
cabinet.
A pilot project to target visitors from seven
countries — including India, Pakistan and
Nigeria — who would have had to pay a cash
guarantee or deposit to deter immigration
abuse was to have been introduced this month.
The plan was to make visitors forfeit £3,000
if they failed to return home by the time their
visas had expired. But in an announcement this
weekend the government said it was canceling
the plans
I’m Not Better Than Dagrin - Olamide
Twenty-two-year-old
fuji/pop rapper,
Olamide Adedeji,
popularly known as
Olamide has no doubt
taken over the mantle
of leadership as far as
rap music is concerned
in Nigeria. Born on March 15, 1989, Olamide
never hesitates to promote his roots, Bariga,
Lagos, in his music. In 2010 he hit the limelight
when he dropped the lead single from his
debut album, Eni Duro, which transformed him
into an emerging voice on the Nigerian music
scene. Overnight, the final year student of
Mass Communication from Tai Solarin
University became the beautiful bride as he
was courted by established acts for collabos
before breaking away from his mentor, ID
Cabasa, and starting his own label, YBNL
Nation. One thing that sets this rapper apart
is his ability to code switch while on the mic as
he flips between Yoruba and English
effortlessly. Olamide has performed live on
big stages all over Nigeria and he is most
definitely a street favorite with the release of
his debut album, Rhapsodi and now, talk about
a third studio album, Baddest Guy Ever Liveth
is rife following the success of his sophomore
effort, YBNL. In this exclusive interview with
TAIWO OLUWADARE, Olamide bares his
mind on issues including the late Dagrin.
Excerpts: Could you tell us about yourself? My
name is Olamide Adedeji. I’m a native of
Abeokuta, Ogun State. I was born and bred in
Bariga, Lagos. I’m a student of Tai Solarin
University where I’m studying Mass
Communication. I’m from a family of seven.
How did you start out as rapper? I discovered
music was in me while growing up. In 2003 I
started writing my own lines and performing at
shows and the rest today is history. What was
growing up like? Growing up was not that rosy
neither was it that bad. Growing up in the
ghetto was quite challenging because you’re
looked down on by kids from upscale
neighbourhoods. In the ghetto I was given
ghetto orientation which is never to look down
on myself no matter what. Tell us about your
love life? I have nothing to say about that.
Late Dagrin seemed to have influenced you a
great deal. What does he mean to you? He’s
more like the late Martin Luther King. I call
him Barrack ‘O Grin. He is such a blessing to
Nigeria. He really paved the way big time for
up-and coming rappers like myself back in the
day. It’s not like there has not been other
people before him but his impact was awesome!
Dagrin is a great artiste and I respect him; he
is a legend. Lately you have become so big. How
are you filling the vacuum Dagrin left behind?
I don’t know. It is depend on people’s
perspective. I just live my life the way I feel
and besides, I’m not the only rapper in the
industry. There are others like Lord of Ajasa.
However I’m only doing my thing. Now people
are comparing me to Dagrin and that feels
great. I see it as a blessing from God. I can’t
say I’m the best rapper; that would be
ridiculous. It’s like saying Jay Z is the best
rapper. However, it’s not like Jay Z is better
than B.I.G but people see the love they have
for B.I.G in Jay Z. B.I.G died when he started
making money and people were heartbroken.
And Jay Z can never open his mouth and say
‘I’m better than B.I.G.’ The same thing applies
to me too. I can’t say I’m better than Dagrin.
How do you get inspiration for your music? I
discovered a long time ago that rap music is all
around me so I draw a lot of inspiration from
my environment. I just feel comfortable being
a rapper as opposed to singing. Seeing rap
icons like Dagrin and the love he had for the
art just overwhelms me. How do you handle
your female fans? (laughter)We dey try.
Behind every successful man there is a woman.
For me it’s not just about a woman but women
so I take advantage of it positively. I don’t
sleep with my female fans; I treat them like
my sisters. What’s been your happiest moment?
God has done many things for me. I can’t tell
which moment is the happiest but one I can
remember was the release of my first album,
Rhapsodi. I was so happy when it was released.
That album registered my name in the annals
of the history of rap music in Nigeria. What
was it like meeting I.D Cabasa? I met I.D
Cabasa when I went to record with a friend in
a studio. We met each other and struck the
right chords and the connection took off from
there. That’s how I ended up having his
support. And ever since, he’s been giving me
that special big brotherly love. What’s your
advice for up-and-coming artistes? My advice
is that they should put God first and do less
of unnecessary hard work. If not rap what
would you be doing? For now, I don’t see
myself leaving the rap world. I would rather be
running a rap music label. What is the meaning
of Ilefo Illuminati It is slang in my
neighbourhood in Bariga, Lagos. Ilefo simply
means swag. There is talk that you belong to
illuminati. How true is this? I have been
correcting that impression in all my interviews
and I’m not going to get tired of it. I only feel
I need to keep representing my own people and
communicating with them in a way that they
will understand me. So, I want to tell my
people that I don’t belong to illuminati or any
secret society. What has been your challenges?
Wow! It used to be an issue of finance. Right
now the major one we are facing is the issue of
piracy. And it’s crazy men! I feel it should stop
but I also know it can never be stopped! What
are your dreams? I want to be a global brand
that is why I’m looking up to God. It is not by
my power but by the grace of God. I feel
honoured and great that I’m one of the top
profile rappers in town.

28 killed, 200 wounded in Anambra church stampede
About 28 people lost their lives today Nov 2nd
during a stampede at the Holy Ghost
Adoration Ground, Uke, Idemili North LGA of
Anambra State (The Adoration ground after
the stampede above
Punch reports
More than 100,000 people were said to be
gathered at the venue of the incident, with
facilities that can hardly take 5,000
people, when the stampede occurred. The
tragic incident has already become
political, as the camps of Governor Peter
Obi and Senator Chris Ngige are trading
blame over the incident.
About 200 victims that survived the
stampede were taken hospitals in Onitsha
and Nkpor where a lot of them were
treated and discharged.

The incident occurred shortly after Governor
Peter Obi, the governorship candidate for the
All progressives Grand Alliance, Chief Willie
Obiano; and the National Chairman of APGA,
Chief Victor Umeh, among others left the
place after an all-night church programme.
Obi, who later on visited hospitals, where the
survivors of the stampede were being
attended to, promised to set up a panel to

More than 100,000 people were said to be
gathered at the venue of the incident, with
facilities that can hardly take 5,000
people, when the stampede occurred. The
tragic incident has already become
political, as the camps of Governor Peter
Obi and Senator Chris Ngige are trading
blame over the incident.
About 200 victims that survived the
stampede were taken hospitals in Onitsha
and Nkpor where a lot of them were
treated and discharged.

The incident occurred shortly after Governor
Peter Obi, the governorship candidate for the
All progressives Grand Alliance, Chief Willie
Obiano; and the National Chairman of APGA,
Chief Victor Umeh, among others left the
place after an all-night church programme.
Obi, who later on visited hospitals, where the
survivors of the stampede were being
attended to, promised to set up a panel to
investigate the cause of the stampede.
