Former Cameroon defender, Rigobert Song suffers stroke

Shocking and heart breaking photos have emerged showing former Liverpool, West Ham and Cameroon player Rigobert Song in intensive care in Yaounde, Cameroon after suffering a stroke attack on Sunday.

The 40 year old player, who is the uncle of former Arsenal and Barcelona star Alex Song was on Monday evening flown to France via a private jet after Cameroon’s government agreed to pay about $78,000 for his treatment in France.
This is so sad! Wish him the safest and quickest of recoveries.

Police arrest prominent Ethiopian blogger

Ethiopian authorities should immediately and unconditionally release blogger Seyoum Teshome, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. Police arrested Teshome on October 1, according to press accounts and opposition activists.

Seyoum is a frequent commentator on Ethiopian affairs who writes for the website Ethiothinkthank.com and lectures at Ambo University's campus in Woliso, some 110 km (68 miles) southwest of capital Addis Ababa. Police arrested him from his home there, searched the house, and confiscated his computer, an Ethiopian journalist exiled in Nairobi told CPJ, speaking on condition of anonymity for fear of reprisal. Ethiopian bloggers also reported his arrest on social media.

It was not immediately clear what charges, if any, Seyoum faces. Ethiopia's information minister, Getachew Reda, did not immediately respond to CPJ's request for comment.

"This arrest of a prominent writer and commentator is deeply disturbing as it comes against a backdrop of government moves to stifle protests and criticism," CPJ Deputy Executive Director Robert Mahoney said. "Seyoum Teshome should be released without delay and without condition."

Seyoum is a prolific writer, and international media frequently seek him out for comment on events in Ethiopia. In a recent New York Times article on the Ethiopian marathoner Feyisa Lilesa, who crossed his arms in a sign of solidarity with anti-government protesters at the finish line of the men's marathon at the Rio Olympics, Seyoum was quoted as saying the athlete's symbolic protest action had struck a blow against the Ethiopian government's carefully constructed image as a thriving developing state.

"This was what the government was afraid of," he told the newspaper.

Thousands of people have taken to the streets in recent months to protest what they see as government abuses and the outsized representation of people from the northern Tigray ethnic group in government.

On Sunday, dozens of protesters died in a stampede after police fired teargas canisters and warning shots to disperse an anti-government protest at a religious festival in the heartland of the Oromo people, where the protests have drawn the highest level of support. Human Rights Watch estimates about 400 protesters died in the seven months leading up to June.

Ethiopia was the third-worst jailer of journalists in Africa, according to CPJ's 2015 prison census. Several bloggers are among those held on vague terrorism-related charges, including the prominent blogger Eskinder Nega, who is in the fifth year of an 18-year sentence following his arrest in September 2011 after he wrote an article highlighting the use of anti-terrorism legislation to harass opposition activists.

Daughter of Saudi Arabia King Salman ‘flees Paris after ordering bodyguards to kill a painter and decorator’

                                        
42 year old Princess Hassa, the daughter of King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, King of Saudi Arabia, has fled Paris, France, after allegedly telling her bodyguard to 'murder a painter and decorator' over the weekend.

According to reports, Princess Hassa allegedly told her bodyguard “You have to kill this dog, he doesn’t deserve to live.”
The bodyguard who hasn't been named yet to the media was arrested last week in Paris and appeared before a judge on Sunday where he revealed the allegations while the Princess has reportedly pleaded diplomatic immunity against prosecution.
According to the bodyguard's statement in court, (Princess Hassa did not appear in court for the hearing), Hassa was infuriated after catching a 53 year old workman taking pictures of her, and so ordered him to attack the man.
According to Le Point magazine, who broke the story, the bodyguard said he had done the “minimum necessary” to “restrain” the workman after the princess caught him taking pictures.
The workman was accused of wanting to sell the images of inside of the flat in Avenue Foch, the prestigious road close to the Arc de Triomphe- where the Princess was staying, to the media.
The judicial police said in court there's nothing wrong with painters and decorators taking pictures on their smartphones while doing jobs and the workman's lawyer revealed that the princess ordered her bodyguard to beat the unidentified Frenchman up, tie his hands and feet together, and then made him kiss her feet. And then after four hours, the workman was kicked out of the flat, and told to “never return” to the area.
Elie Hatem, the bodyguard’s barrister, says the workman's version of events are false:
“There were more than twenty people in the apartments. How can the facts as outlined by the complainant have been overlooked?”
No official statement has so far been released by the Princess, her Dad or the Saudi Arabian embassy in Paris.

Money Money Weather keeps showing off his weather wealth on social media, he's telling the motherfuckers not to even try to fuck with him because he is stinky rich.

A Kenyan man had sex with a ten- year- old girl in the bush and still posted it on Facebook - MADNESS?

A Kenyan man identified as Calvin Mbane Alfayo, took to his Facebook page to brag and show off photos of a minor he slept with in the bush.

Alfayo shared photos of himself and the girl lying in a bush. He said that he had just defiled the girl and told his followers to take love instead of waiting to be loved.

In one of the photos, the man asks the girl to lift her top as he takes a photo of her.  Social media users, angered by the sick show on Facebook, called for his immediate arrest.

He has now been identified as the son of a local Member of the County Assembly (MCA). One of the most disconcerting bits of information about the man is that he is a former administration police officer who was fired over cases of indiscipline.
Is this madness or what?
