 Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar Dismisses MKO Abiola Poisoning Claims, Cites Autopsy by International Pathologists Former Head of State Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar (retd.) has firmly rejected allegations that Chief MKO Abiola was poisoned, stating that an autopsy conducted by pathologists from the United States, Britain, Nigeria, and Canada attributed his death to natural causes.

 Scientists confirm first-ever wild footage of rare 'goblin shark,' revealing new deep-sea habitats Scientists have confirmed the first peer-reviewed video footage of a live goblin shark in its natural habitat, marking a major breakthrough in documenting one of the ocean’s rarest deep-sea species. The goblin shark (Mitsukurina owstoni), often described as a “living fossil,” is the last surviving member of an ancient shark lineage that dates back roughly 125 million years. The species is known for its elongated, horn-like snout and highly specialized jaws that can rapidly extend outward to snatch prey. Its snout contains electro-sensing organs that detect faint electrical signals from animals in the dark ocean depths, helping it locate squid, fish, and crustaceans. Adults can reach about 10 to 12 feet in length and typically appear pale pink or ghostly white. Researchers documented two separate wild encounters. The first occurred in 2019 when a remotely operated underwater vehic...

 Tiffany Haddish reveals her dating requirements and ‘self-marriage’ philosophy Tiffany Haddish recently shared her unique perspective on dating and self‑love during a June 9 episode of the Hey Jonas! podcast with Joe, Nick, and Kevin Jonas. The 46‑year‑old comedian outlined her requirements for a partner, including a credit score of at least 700, which she said reflects responsibility, and an EIN number that has been active for five years, signaling leadership and stability.  She added that good hygiene is non‑negotiable, joking that she notices a man’s hands first and is immediately turned off by dirty nails. Beyond her dating checklist, Haddish opened up about her philosophy of “self‑marriage.” She explained that the longest relationship anyone will ever have is with themselves, so committing to self‑love makes sense.  Haddish said she has found that the kinder she is to herself, the kinder the world seems in return.

 Bill Maher issues bold warning on Elon Musk’s trillionaire status On the June 12 episode of Real Time With Bill Maher, the comedian addressed Elon Musk’s historic milestone after SpaceX went public, making Musk the world’s first trillionaire. Maher acknowledged Musk’s achievements with companies like Tesla, Neuralink, Starlink, and Twitter, but emphasized the staggering nature of his new wealth.  He joked that Musk might use his fortune to escape California taxes by moving to Mars, underscoring the surreal scale of the accomplishment. Maher then raised a provocative question: should trillionaires even be allowed? He suggested that laws could limit individuals from amassing more than 1% of the nation’s gross product, pointing to historical precedents like Rockefeller.  In conversation with Eurasia Group’s Ian Bremmer and host Hagar Chemali, Maher explored whether unchecked wealth concentration poses risks to society, hinting at the need for regulation in the face of unpre...
