9 year old boy boards flight to Vegas, alone and without ticket

A 9 year old boy did the unthinkable in the US last week; he went through airport security with other passengers, and sneaked on a flight to Las Vegas on his own without a plane ticket.

The Transportation Security Administration officials said they are still trying to figure out how he did it. CNN reports

Patrick Hogan, a spokesman for Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport, said the crew of Delta Flight 1651 "became suspicious of the child's circumstances" during the flight from Minneapolis to Las Vegas. Crew members got in touch with authorities in Las Vegas and turned the boy over to Child Protective Services, Hogan said in a statement.

 "Fortunately, the flight crew took appropriate actions to ensure the child's safety, so the story does have a good ending," he said. Delta said it takes the incident "very seriously" and is working with authorities.

Read Teju Babyface's tribute to late Tunji Okusanya, MIC Boss

When I tell my driver that Tunji Okusanya of MIC is dead, I envision he will say, 'ah! man daada to ma'n fun mi l'owo yen!'(dat generous man!).

I walked into his office to invite him to Season 2 of our show in 2010. We had never met but he hugged me.
He told me how he loved our show and how I would go far up the ladder of Success. I discovered that he liked to laugh a lot.

On the day of recording, he came on time and when we were done, he shared money around like a politician going to the polls. And so we would become 'friends'. More like Egbon (elder sibling) and aburo (younger sibling)

"How we survived the plane crash' - Feyi Agagu explains

A close family friend of Feyi, son of late Chief Agagu, who is one of the survivors of the ill fated Associated Airlines flight, told Vanguard that he (Feyi) was initially reluctant to enter the plane after seeing how old it looked. (The exact plane pictured right). He and others survived basically by sitting at the back of the plane. Below is what a family insider Feyi spoke to said;

“The young man said that once they got to the tarmac before boarding and once he sighted the plane, what struck him was the seemingly very old look of the plane. Feyi said he didn’t like the looks of the plane. He also said but for the importance and significance of the trip, his inner sense didn’t feel comfortable boarding the plane.

"In fact, Feyi said he told another survivor, Femi Akinsanya, that the plane looked too old and he didn’t feel like boarding. But Feyi said he was told not to get himself worked up needlessly since this was not going to be his first time aboard a plane neither would this be the first old-looking plane that he would board. That was how he said he boarded the plane”

Why Agagu's casket was intact after the plane crash that killed 13

Not only was the casket carrying Agagu's corpse intact after the plane crashed on Thursday morning, people who opened the casket shortly after the crash said the cap on his head stayed intact and his body wasn't ruffled. These discoveries have baffled so many, with some insinuating it's juju. But the reason is really simple. The casket was latched to the hooks in the cargo compartment of the plane and was placed in the rear end of the plane. People who sat at the back of the plane survived the crash, so the casket, which was kept at the back also survived the crash.

Meanwhile during his burial on Friday, his widow Funke Agagu insisted on seeing the body before he is buried. She was photographed praying for the body before he was lowered into his grave. See the photo after the cut *viewer discretion advised*

Nike Oshinowo welcome set of twins

The 47 year old former beauty queen welcomed her twins via a gestational surrogate in the United States of America.
Gestational surrogacy is when a woman (surrogate mother) carries and delivers a child that is not genetically related to her. That is, the surrogate carries a child that was conceived using eggs and sperm from a couple or from donor eggs and sperm.

In traditional surrogacy the surrogate carrier’s own egg is used and combined with sperm from the male partner through intrauterine insemination (IUI) or in vitro fertilization (IVF).
But the twins are biologically Nike’s children.
It has not been revealed who the father of the twins is as Nike and her husband Dr. Tunde Soleye ended their marriage months ago.
Congrats to her!
