President Trump and North Korea's Kim Jong Un are both in Singapore for their highly anticipated summit, the first of its kind between a U.S. president and a leader of North Korea. And while officials remain uncertain as to what exactly will come out of Tuesday's unprecedented discussions, Mr. Trump has stated that he wants to strike a deal to get the Pyongyang to give up its nuclear weapons.
This U.S.-North Korea Summit comes after Kim made history in April by becoming the first North Korean leader to cross into South Korean territory since the Korean War armistice in 1953. This time, much like last, Kim has agreed to a seat at the table, but is reportedly refusing to sit on any of the summit's public toilets.
South Korean news agency The Chosunilbo reported that when Kim arrived in Singapore on an Air China Boeing 747, he also was accompanied by an IL-76 transport plane carrying food, "his bullet-proof limousine and a portable toilet."

He said that the defendant had once called the complainant and told him that Nusaiba was no longer his wife.

Sadi pleaded with the court to intervene in the matter and compel Mustapha to stop interfering in his marriage.
He also prayed to the court to assist him in bringing back his wife to their matrimonial home.

“As far as we are concerned, Dr. Bukola Saraki has taken Offa as his second home and have been supportive of all our activities and development projects in the town" Olofa Of Offa Defend Bukola Saraki
Mufutau Gbadamosi, the olofa of Offa, says his people will not be party to any attempt to ridicule or embarrass Senate President Bukola Saraki.
Tajudeen Oloyede, principal private secretary to the monarch, quoted Gbadamosi as saying this in a statement.
Reacting, the Offa monarch asked the police to avoid unnecessary sensationalism in handling the investigation into the robbery incident.
“The attention of Olofa’s Palace, Offa, the traditional domain of his royal majesty, Oba Mufutau Gbadamosi, Ajagungbade I, the Olofa of Offa has been drawn to the claims made by the police at a press conference in Abuja on 3rd of June, 2018 where some of the suspects arrested in connection with the robbery incidents which occurred in our town in April implicated Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki, the senate president,” the statement read.
“While we will not want to prejudice the investigation by the police on this case, the community will appreciate thoroughness to ensure equity and justice on the matter.
“As far as we are concerned, Dr. Bukola Saraki has taken Offa as his second home and have been supportive of all our activities and development projects in the town. The senate president always heeded to our call anytime we approach him on any issue concerning the progress and security of our ancient town.
“The Offa people are well bred citizens of Nigeria and we are appreciative of people who have extended hands of fellowship to us. Dr. Saraki is one such person and thus we hold him in high esteem.
“When the Offa robbery incident happened, the senate president was the first top public official to pay a visit to our town and right there in the palace in the glare of the high chiefs and other well-meaning personalities, the Senate President, Dr. Abubakar Saraki put a call to the inspector-general of police, Mr. Ibrahim Kpotun Idris, requesting him to make necessary security arrangement which our people has long been yearning for.
“The Senate President also donated substantial money to help some of our people who were in distress as a result of the robbery incident and he also made substantial contribution towards the building of a new police station.
“We wish to state that the senate president is a former governor of Kwara state and by the grace of God the number three citizen of this country, we will therefore not be a party to attempt to ridicule, embarrass, denigrate and disgrace him. We know his antecedent, family and political beliefs.
“We therefore call on the police to be alive to their responsibility and avoid unnecessary sensationalism in the handling of the investigation into the Offa robbery incident. We will appreciate that this case is thoroughly investigated devoid of media trial and unnecessary and undue publicity. Our interest remain in the law taking its course against those who unleashed mayhem and violence against our people in order to prevent recurrence of such crime in our society.”
He called on the media to be cautious and refrain from becoming an instrument that could be used to tarnish the image of prominent Nigerians “most especially the one targeted at the office and person of the senate president”.

Celebrities Storm Aso Rock To Break Fast With President Buhari
Khloe Storm The NBA to Support Her Man Tristan Thompson
Khloé Kardashian took a break from sharing adorable Instagrams of her daughter True to watch the Cleveland Cavaliers (her baby daddy Tristan Thompson's team) face the Golden State Warriors for the NBA Finals last night. Though the Cavs ultimately lost the game (they're down 3-0 in the series), Kardashian showed her support at the event.
The new mom made an appearance backstage clad in a Cleveland t-shirt and ripped jeans. She apparently was given VIP access for the occasion too. She also stopped to pose with a few fans, who shared photos on social media.
Kardashian was previously seen watching Thompson play on May 6, almost a month after cheating allegations against the basketball player broke.
The outing at the game last month followed conflicting reports on whether Khloé would stay with Tristan after his scandal.
Days prior, she was seen having lunch with Thompson and a group of friends.

“I once caught him sucking the breasts of my niece"
A 36-year-old trader, Mrs. Florence Anyasi, on Wednesday told a Customary Court in Igando, Lagos State, to dissolve her 10-year-old marriage because her husband, Staley is a chronic womaniser.
She told the court that apart from numerous cases of his following women around, her husband used to sneak into their maid’s room to sleep with her.
“My husband is a womaniser, he used to leave me in the bed at night and sneak into my maid’s room. I have caught him severally on my maid’s bed sexually assaulting her.
“A neighbour approached me and told me to warn my husband to desist from asking her daughter to have love affairs with him.
“I once caught him sucking the breasts of my niece, who is a minor and he is also fond of wooing my friends,” the mother of three said as she reeled out her grievances before the court.
Anyasi also accused the husband of threatening her life.
“My husband always tells me that he will get rid of me and had once succeeded in poisoning me.
“He bought food for me and after eating, I started having serious pain and vomiting, I was rushed to the hospital by neighbours, when I was diagnosed, it was detected that the food I just ate had been poisoned.”
The petitioner said that her husband equally turned her into a punching bag, beating her at the slightest provocation, and has been calling her thief and prostitute in public.
The woman stressed that her husband was irresponsible and unable to provide food or pay for the education of their children.
She, therefore, urged the court to dissolve her marriage with Stanley.
The defendant, however, denied all the allegations and in turn accused his wife of adultery, claiming that her lover even bought a car for her.
“In January 2017 she came home with a car of N1 million, when I queried her where she got the car from, she claimed she bought it with her money.
“I strongly disagreed with her because she is only selling foodstuffs and can never afford that kind of a car.”
The 40-year-old businessman said that his wife packed out of their matrimonial home in 2017 without his knowledge.
“I came home from work and discovered that my wife had packed all her belonging out with the children to start living with her lover.
“I called her severally, she refused to pick but she eventually picked my call last January and informed me that our last baby she delivered in May 2017 was not mine that the child belonged to the man she is presently living with.
“Before she even gave birth and packed out of my house, I always received information from people that they saw my wife in hotel with men but I always ignored them.”
Stanley said that he provided food and was paying the school fees of their children.
On the allegation of turning her to a punching bag, Stanley said that he only beat her once when she stabbed him with bottle on his head.
The respondent urged the court to grant his wife’s wish for the dissolution of marriage saying that he too was no longer interested.
The court president, Mr. Akin Akinniyi, admonished the couple to maintain peace and fixed July 3, for judgment.

Bridge Built By Okorocha Collapses In Owerri
The bridge at the Children’s Amusement Park located at the Ikemba Ojukwu Centre in Owerri, Imo, built by Gov. Rochas Okorocha’s administration has collapsed.
Witnesses at the scene told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Owerri on Wednesday that nobody was killed or injured in the incident.
The incident which caused pandemonium in the area, gave room for criticism by some parents whose children visited the place on May 27 during the 2018 Children’s Day Celebration.
A NAN Correspondent, who visited the scene, reports that the incident occurred after a heavy downpour on Tuesday night. The bridge, being a major tourism site, has been used to generate funds for the state government.
When contacted, the State Commissioner for Happiness and Purpose Fulfillment, Mrs Ogechi Ololo, told NAN that she had yet to be briefed on the cause of the incident.
Mr Collins Ibe, who witnessed the incident, told NAN that the windstorm that accompanied the downpour might be responsible for the collapsed of the bridge.
Another witness, Mrs Mary Nlemadim, said: “It is unfortunate that this is happening in the state, especially at a place that is supposed to be a recreation centre.
“I thank God that it happened in the night when people were not around; otherwise, there might have been casualties.
“I urge the state government and engineers working on construction projects in the state to be more dedicated and thorough,” she said.
Also, an Engineer, Mr Okechukwu Uba said: “There is need to critically look at all the construction projects going on in the state.
“This is necessary to avoid unnecessary waste of resources, time and human capacity.
“These projects need to get proper approval from professional hands or bodies; they also need to be properly supervised by qualified and experienced personnel.
“Again, they have to be done systematically and not many things at the same time.
“These projects need to be finished up in a tidy manner and subjected to stress tests where necessary, before being opened to the public,’’ he said.
NAN reports that the state Chairman of the Nigeria Society of Engineers, Mr Emeka Ugoanyawu, had earlier warned against substandard engineering work in the state.

Navy Seizes N50m Worth Of Contraband Rice
Men of the Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) Victory in Calabar have arrested a large wooden boat laden with 2, 860 bags of contraband foreign rice, worth over N50 million naira, as well as five suspects.
Commander, NNS Victory, Commodore Julius Nwagu, who paraded the suspects and seized items in Calabar Wednesday, said the arrest was made along the Calabar Channel by the anti-smuggling patrol of the base when they got intelligence reports about the activities of the suspected smugglers.
Nwagu, who was represented by the Executive Officer of NNS Victory, Navy Captain Babafemi Ajayi, said the boat was suspected to have come in Cameroon and headed for Calabar.
He said, “The boat was hidden with the intention that when it is dark, then they can use smaller boats to evacuate the products into their warehouse in Calabar. We stationed our patrolmen in that particular area and luckily we saw the five men when they wanted to carry out their assignment. They were arrested and further findings revealed their warehouse which when we got there, we discovered the consignments. So we evacuated everything here and escorted the boat to NNS Victory jetty.

“Totally we evacuated 2860 bags of foreign rice. In compliance to the extant rules everything has to be handed over to the Nigerian Customs Service for further prosecution.
“We warn all smugglers to desist. The money wasted on this is a great loss and the Navy is bent is on ensuring that problem is stopped in the country. We implore these people to look for something else to do instead of this because it would not get them anywhere. We are resolved that we shall not allow this to persist within our area of responsibility. They would be the losers at the end.”
Assistant Controller of Customs, Omachi Joshua, representing the Eastern Marine Command based in Calabar, who received the items and suspects said the items would take to the government warehouse and the suspects would be prosecuted according to laid down rules.
“The bags of rice are subsequently forfeited to the Federal Government and they would take the matter to court for condemnation and whatever the government issues is what we would follow,” he said.

Donating classroom desks to two (2) primary schools, RCM Kabong Primary School and ECWA Primary School. It was a rewarding experience giving back and inspiring the children and leaders of tomorrow. Thanks to everybody who made this happen. God bless. #Babaloke
