Saudi Women Divorces Husband because he loves her more than his own mother :

BAHA — A 29-year-old Saudi man was in for the shock of his life when his wife, whom he loved so much, approached the court for a divorce.
The estranged husband did not know why his wife would want divorce from him even though he did everything possible for her, but she was adamant in her demand.
She admitted that her husband had never denied anything to her but she insisted on leaving him because he preferred her over his own mother.
"I can never trust a man who does everything for his wife while he denies even a small favor to his mother," she told the judge.
Neither the husband nor wife was identified. The husband, who was in a deep shock, told the judge that he did not want to leave his wife and that he would do everything to keep her but she bluntly rejected the offer.
The woman admitted that her husband had spent a lot of money on her, taking her on foreign trips and buying her everything she wanted, but said she did not want to continue her life with him.
"A man who is not good to his own mother cannot be trusted. He may turn his back on me anytime in the future," she said.
The surprised husband asked her, "Didn't I abandon my own family for you?"
She replied, "Yes, and this is the very reason I want divorce from you."
The woman told the judge that everything her husband said in the court was correct but she was determined to leave him because he preferred her over his family members, including his mother.
She told the judge that she could not wait until the day her husband would abandon her the same way he had abandoned his mother.
The woman returned the dowry her husband had given her and the judge granted the divorce.
A judicial source praised the woman for her noble stand and said she was right to ask for divorce since the husband placed her above his own mother.
He said the woman thought that a man who would leave his own mother for another woman could never be trusted.
The source said some men believed that blindly obeying their wives and doing everything for them was the way to win perpetual love.
"This is not correct. A man must put his family, especially his mother, above everything else," he said.
He said his wife was not happy because he did more favors to her than to the woman who gave him birth, brought him up and sacrificed her own life for his happiness.

[1/6, 07:06] Ishmael Igweh: Ibe Kachikwu, minister of state for petroleum, says the federal government has no plan to jack up the pump price of petrol, which is at present fixed at N145 per litre.

Idang Alibi, the director of press in the ministry, in a statement on Thursday night clarified the minister’s submission made to the joint committee of the national assembly on petroleum downstream.

“The ministry of petroleum resources would like to categorically state that the Honourable Minister never mentioned nor insinuated the need or plans by the federal government to increase the current pump price of premium motor spirit (PMS)”, Alibi said.

Alibi said Kachikwu told the hearing that the presidency has set up a special committee to identify the immediate and remote causes of the fuel scarcity with a view to finding both immediate and long lasting solutions to the challenge.

“The committee has been in rounds of deliberations in the past few days and these discussions are still ongoing. The final decisions and recommendations from the committee would be passed on to the President and commander-in-chief for approval”, said Alibi.

Alibi urged the public and indeed stakeholders in the oil and gas sector to disregard any such report of a price increase.

Kachikwu told the public hearing at the national assembly on Thursday that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC had incurred a cumulative loss of N85.5 billion in importing petrol and selling at the current retail price of N145 per litre since October 2017.
Kachikwu said the price was fixed in the first quarter of 2016, when crude oil was selling for $49 and expressed fears that with crude price rising to $67 a barrel, the pump price, may no longer be sustainable.

According to him, the landing cost of PMS which was N133.28 per litre in 2016, is now N171 per litre and this has resulted in a stoppage of importation of the product by independent marketers.

This, he said, had made the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) to be the 100 per cent importer of the product.

The minister said as a result of the N26 difference per litre between the current landing cost of the product (N171) and pump price of N145, NNPC which had been singularly importing the product at the volume of 25 million litres per day since October last year, has been incurring a daily loss of about N800-N900million.

According to him, government has mandated him and a committee set up, to find ways out of the problem until the local refineries become functional in 18 months time.

He said three solutions are being considered.

“One, is for the Central bank of Nigeria (CBN) to allow the marketers access forex at the rate of N204 to a dollar as against the official rate of N305 to keep the pump price of fuel per litre at N145.

“Two, to give room for modulated deregulation where NNPC would be allowed to continue selling at N145 per litre in all its mega stations across the country while the independent marketers should be allowed to sell at whatever price is profitable to them in all their outlets.

“Three, to look at the direction of blanket subsidy for all the importers in bridging the gap which would be like going back to a problem that had earlier been solved,” he said .

He, however, stressed that the final solution to the problem was for the nation to put her refineries in good shape in a way that 80 per cent of local consumption of the product should be provided for locally.

POLITICS (PLEASE POST YOUR OPINION) Donald Trump will tonight hand out his inaugural ‘fake news awards’ to the media outlets that have most angered him during his first year as President. The Commander in Chief announced the bizarre ceremony in a tweet late Tuesday, writing: ‘I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. ‘Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!’ President Trump has been most vociferous in attacking CNN for its supposed ‘fake news’, with the network widely expected to win the majority of gongs. The awards are likely to be ‘handed out’ in a series of scathing tweets from Mr Trump, and it is unclear whether he will present winners with any sort of booby prize. He popularized the term fake news during his White House run, using it to attack reports whose facts he disputes. But Trump’s critics claim it is an easy way of shouting down va...
CANCER IS NOT DEADLY Dr. Muthami says,  No one must die of cancer except out of carelessness; (1). First step is to stop all sugar intake, without sugar in your body, cancer cell would die a natural death. (2). Second step is to blend a whole lemon fruit with a cup of hot water and drink it for about 1-3 months first thing before food and cancer would disappear, research by Maryland College of Medicine says, it's 1000 times better than chemotherapy. (3). Third step is to drink 3 spoonfuls of organic coconut oil, morning and night and cancer would disappear, you can choose any of the two therapies after avoiding sugar. Ignorance  is no excuse. Let everyone around you know, it's a sacrilege for anyone this day to die of cancer; God bless.
