        A Nigerian man has decided to get married to himself and he released a wedding invitation card, inviting friends to his "Holy Sologamy".

Victor, who has two Facebook accounts - one personal account and one business account, has updated both accounts to show that he's married to himself.

        President Muhammadu Buhari has described the late MKO Abiola as a bridge builder who could have prevented the religious and tribal issues besetting the country now from happening, if he had been allowed to rule Nigeria.
