South African rapper, AKA, who seems displeased with the way awards are being handed out lately, has gone off on a rant on Twitter.
AKA who stated that he is at a point in his career where he no longer needs validations in form of awards to prove that he’s great, added that he is not interested in people saying ‘who is great and who is deserving and who isn’t anymore’. 
His tweets reads;
Megacy. Please stop attacking the SA Hip Hop Awards. I didn’t submit. For my own personal reasons I no longer submit for award shows because I no longer believe in the concept of awards. The greatest reward or award is you rocking with me and my music. I wish them all the best ??
I have arguably the biggest album and without argument … the biggest Hip Hop or even local song this year. Period. I don’t need an award to confirm that. All I need is your support. ??????
I am simply not interested in people telling us who is great and who is deserving and who isn’t anymore. Bob Marley and Tupac never won Grammies. I also don’t look down on people who DO submit or care about awards. It’s just my preference at this point in my career.
I appreciate all the amazing accolades and awards I have received over the years. All the votes from you and all the recognition from the industry and my peers. I am just not into awards right now. Good luck to all nominees!!! ??????
There is no award for still being at the peak of this industry after dropping my 1st song in 2008 … 2005 if you count Entity. Thank You for riding with me. It’s all LOVE ??

Bill Gates Backs China's Toilet Revolution

As one of the world's richest men and most active philanthropists, Bill Gates usually has his hands full. Just not with poop.

So it came as a surprise when the founder of Microsoft brandished a jar of human waste at a forum on the future of the toilet in Beijing on Tuesday.

The stunt was an effort to draw attention to a problem affecting developing countries around the world: not enough toilets.

"In places without sanitation you have got way more than that," Gates said, pointing to the feces inside the clear canister resting on a table.


"And that's what kids when they are out playing, they are being exposed to all the time, and that's why we connect this not just with quality of life, but with disease and death and with malnutrition," he told attendees.

The billionaire has used part of his considerable fortune to provide clean, comfortable sanitation facilities to the nearly half of the world's population that suffers without.

"When you think of things that are basic right up there with health and enough to eat, you think that having a reasonable toilet certainly belongs on that list," Gates said.

Attendant, Supervisor Lead Bandits To Rob Lagos Petrol Station

The supervisor of Skeptar Petrol Station, Daniel Freedom, 20, and a fuel attendant, Mike Charles, 20, have been arrested by operatives of the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly robbing the petrol filling station where they both work in the Igbo-Elerin area of Ojo Local Government, Lagos State.

Also arrested were their accomplices, Obinna Ofoma, 25; Ndukwa Junior, 22; William Okon, 22; and Tony Oluchukwu, 28, for alleged involvement in the robbery.

The state Commissioner of Police, Edgal Imohimi, while briefing the press on Monday, said operatives of the command were mobilised to the scene, adding that the suspects were arrested at their hideouts.


Imohimi said, “On October 28, 2018, around 9pm, information was received from a credible source that some armed men were sighted at Skepter Petrol Station situated at Igbo-Elerin Bus Stop, Ojo area of Lagos, and were robbing the fuel attendants and their customers.

“On receipt of the information, operatives from the Ilemba Hausa Police Station and FSARS Ikeja jointly mobilised to the scene. Unfortunately, before the team could arrive, the hoodlums, who sensed danger, had disappeared. However, later in the night, the robbers were arrested from where they were hiding and their arms, comprising two toy guns, three knives and one axe, were recovered.

“During interrogation, they gave their names as Obinna Ofoma, 25; Ndukwa Junior, 22; William Okon, 22; Tony Oluchukwu, 28; Charles Mike, 20; and Freedom Daniel, 20. It was revealed that the supervisor of the petrol station, one Daniel Freedom, and his fuel attendant, Mike Charles, were the masterminds of the robbery operation at the filling station.”

Imohimi, who said the suspects had confessed that they specialised in robbing petrol stations around Igando and Ilemba Hausa axis of Lagos State, added that investigation was ongoing with a view to arresting other members of the gang currently at large for prosecution
