Nigeria’s Ebola Volunteers Squad
BASKING in the universal acclamation of Nigeria for setting the pace in the containment of the Ebola Viral Disease (EVD), the Federal Government’s decision to set up an international Ebola Volunteers group comes highly commended.
It is important that we make the most of this achievement by taking it forward to assist our neighbours in the sub-region, such as Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, which are suffering from a vicious pandemic that has clearly overwhelmed them.
At this juncture of this frightening emergency, it is no longer a question of whether Nigeria is benefiting commensurately from our unending sacrifices both within the region and the African continent as a whole. It is now a matter of meeting the Ebola challenge at its present ground zero and helping to overpower it there before another index case finds its way to our shores to threaten our population.

Instead of working on new idioms, they were busy recycling old songs – mostly highlife songs that were very popular between the 1960s and 1980s – and repacking them as new hits....
“Also, I have noticed that many so-called musicians are not paying attention to songs. Nowadays, everybody seems to be concentrating on beats and getting their fans to dance, instead of composing good songs.
The result is that contemporary Nigerian music has lost a great deal of content. And this is not good for us.”

The split came after Thicke's controversial 2013 VMA performance with Miley Cyrus and after he was rumored to have cheated on Patton after pictures surfaced of him grabbing another woman's bare butt while posing for a photo.
According to TMZ, Patton cited irreconcilable differences and is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their 4-year-old son Julian. TMZ reports that the divorce is "harmonious."

The lovesick singer then released an album in her honor titled Paula.
In July, Thicke admitted he was at a loss when it came to winning Patton back. "I actually have no idea what I'm doing," he said on Good Morning America. "I'm just kinda flying by the seat of my pants on this one."
