Just To Speak At An Event Nigerian Company Pays Former US President Bill Clinton ₦100M
Just to speak at an event in Lagos, southwest Nigeria, a Nigerian company paid the former American President, Bill Clinton, $700,000 (over ₦100 million), the New York Times disclosed on Thursday. The New York Times did not disclose the name of the company which handed Clinton the huge sum of money.Clinton, since he left office, has visited Nigeria many times, the last two being a guest speaker at the launch of Eko Atlantic City and Thisday Awards.
America’s influential newspaper did not also disclose when the money was paid but said Bill Clinton made $17 million (₦2.5 billion) from speeches last year alone. The disclosure was made as the newspaper revealed also that Hillary Clinton will be paid $200,000 to offer pithy reflections and Mitch Albom-style lessons from her time as the nation’s top diplomat.“The $200,000 she commands appears to be comparable to what Bill Clinton receives for speeches delivered in this country, though Mr. Clinton — who earned $17 million from speeches last year — has collected much more outside the United States, including the $700,000 he was paid when he spoke to a company in Lagos, Nigeria,” The New York Times said.

Botswana president injured in cheetah 'attack'
The incident occurred at a Botswana Defence Force barracks last week, the Sunday Standard reported on its website, quoting government spokesman Jeff Ramsay.
Ramsay said it was a "freak accident, but not an attack".The cheetah was reportedly being fed in an enclosure close to where Khama was standing and somehow managed to get its claw to the president's face.
Khama was not admitted to hospital, but did receive treatment. He was seen last week with a plaster on his face.
Ramsay said there were "no real security implications", adding that because of the minor nature of the injuries the government had initially decided not to issue a public statement.

South Korea Annoyed By Bill Gates’ Handshake With President
Microsoft founder Bill Gates’ casual style was the subject of criticism in some South Korean media on Tuesday after he shook hands with President Park Geun-Hye, with one hand in his pocket.
The picture of the meet-and-greet between Gates and Park on Monday was splashed on the front page of every national daily, some of which cropped out the offending pocketed hand while most chose to highlight it.
“Cultural difference, or an act of disrespect?” the JoongAng Ilbo wrote in the accompanying caption.
“Disrespectful handshake? Casual handshake?” the Dong-A Ilbo asked.

Watch Video: Obasanjo had a killer squad as president - former associate
A former associate of former president Olusegun Obasanjo told Sahara Reporters in an interview yesterday that Obasanjo had a killer squad used for political assassinations and actually housed them at a State Security Service headquarters, known as ‘Yellow House.’ Richard Odusanya said:
A rep for Obasanjo has since denied the allegations. Watch the revealing video after the Break.“I believe that a killer squad created during the Abacha regime was kept by Obasanjo and housed at SSS headquarters, known as Yellow House, and was used for political assassinations. The night Chief Bola Ige was assassinated, a top PDP member confided in me that Obasanjo told him Bola Ige was down. I also took a gift to (Harry) Marshall and he was assassinated just a few weeks later.”

Vice President Biden’s gregarious, gaffe-laden diplomacy doesn’t come cheap.
It can cost in the neighborhood of $500,000 a night — and that’s just for the hotel.

The lodging cost taxpayers $585,000.50, according to federal contracting records that emerged Friday.
Then it was on to London, where Biden’s visit on Feb. 5 required “approximately 136 rooms” at another five-star hotel, the Hyatt Regency London Churchill — the closest Hyatt to the U.S. Embassy.
