 Apple's statement on minerals must be 'verified': DRC International lawyers for the Democratic Republic of Congo welcomed Apple's decision to stop sourcing minerals from there due to worsening conflict, but said they would press ahead with their cases against the company in Europe. Criminal complaints were filed against Apple subsidiaries in France and Belgium this week on behalf of DR Congo, accusing the tech firm of using conflict minerals in its supply chain, Reuters reported. DR Congo is a major source of tin, tantalum and tungsten, so-called 3T minerals used in computers and mobile phones. But some artisanal mines are run by armed groups involved in massacres, rapes and other crimes, say UN experts and rights groups.

                                                      I  watched the drama that played out between the Inspector General of Police Suleiman Abba and the committee that was questioning him yesterday,and how they reacted when he refused to recognize Hon Aminu Tambuwal,as Speaker of the  House of Representative.From what i could gather while watching,he said he refused to recognize the Speaker because his matter is still in court and today,a lot of lawyers and political parties were just condemning his attitude,towards the matter.If you ask me oh,some times people condemn blindly.Before they condemn the IGP,i condemn the fact that when i saw the House of Representative members flying the fence,i was so ashamed and i begin to wonder the type of leaders that we have voted in.Let me ask,youths in Nigeria,between the age of 25-40,are you in the House ...

                              There have been different instances about very horrible nannies in Nigeria and abroad and such nannies are usually referred to as nannies from HELL,but because of the cost of living and the motivation of most women to support their homes,their children are really facing hell from the hands of these nannies.The recent case about the Uganda nanny 22 year old Jolly Tumuhiirwe,have really opened the eyes of many mothers and the question people keep asking is,where is the mother of these poor child Aneela,because all they are hearing are the father Erick Kamanzi,planted camera and beat up the maid.Now from our research,the mother of that baby is a house wife,so how come the father that goes to work everyday noticed what happened to his daughter and her mother that is suppose to be a house wife did not notice all what have been happening to her baby?.Lets tell ourselves the truth,is't only...
