Buhari Ahmadu Tanko the Commander of Civilian Joint Task Force (JTF) in charge of Kakuri community, Kaduna South Local Government Area of Kaduna state, has been murdered.

The Nation reports that Tanko was reportedly killed by some yet to be identified assailants.

The Kaduna state police command spokesperson, ASP Aliyu Usman confirmed the incident.


He said, the late Tanko, 27 was murdered by hoodlums while attempting to stop them from stealing from the premises of defunct Kaduna Textile Limited located in his catchment area.

ASP Usman said the incident occurred at about 3:26 hours of Monday 29th August 2016, making it difficult for the police to make immediate arrest of any suspect in connection with the killing.

He however said investigation into the matter has already been launched and the culprits will soon be fished out to face the full wrath of the law.

Effort to speak with family of the deceased could not be established as the time of filing this report.

But member of JTF in Kakuri, who would not want his name in print vowed, never to be deterred by the gruesome murder of their leader in their efforts to make the community safer, urging the state government to train and equip them instead of attempting to scrap the activities of local vigilante in the State as we read in the media.

“We know the community better because we leave here. The government can train us continually so we discharge our responsibility better. What happened cannot stop us from patrolling our area especially at night. And we will bring the killers of Buhari to justice no matter how long it will take us,” he said.

Apple faces 13bn-euro Irish tax bill


Ireland should recover up to €13bn (£11bn) from Apple in back taxes, the European Commission has ruled.
After a three-year investigation, it has concluded that the US firm's Irish tax benefits are illegal.
The Commission said Ireland enabled the company to pay substantially less than other businesses, in effect paying a corporate tax rate of no more than 1%.
Ireland and Apple both said they disagreed with the record penalty and would appeal against it.
Apple reaction: Live updates
"Member states cannot give tax benefits to selected companies - this is illegal under EU state aid rules," said Commissioner Margrethe Vestager.
"The Commission's investigation concluded that Ireland granted illegal tax benefits to Apple, which enabled it to pay substantially less tax than other businesses over many years," she added.
The standard rate of Irish corporate tax is 12.5%. The Commissions's investigation concluded that Apple had effectively paid 1% tax on its European profits in 2003 and about 0.005% in 2014.
Ms Vestager said that the tax agreement reached between Ireland and Apple meant that the company's taxable profits "did not correspond to economic reality".
'Profound and harmful effect'

Apple said the decision would be harmful for jobs.
"The European Commission has launched an effort to rewrite Apple's history in Europe, ignore Ireland's tax laws and upend the international tax system in the process," the company said in a statement.
"The Commission's case is not about how much Apple pays in taxes, it's about which government collects the money. It will have a profound and harmful effect on investment and job creation in Europe.
"Apple follows the law and pays all of the taxes we owe wherever we operate. We will appeal and we are confident the decision will be overturned."
The Irish government held a similar view.
"I disagree profoundly with the Commission," said Ireland's finance minister, Michael Noonan, in a statement.
"The decision leaves me with no choice but to seek cabinet approval to appeal. This is necessary to defend the integrity of our tax system; to provide tax certainty to business; and to challenge the encroachment of EU state aid rules into the sovereign member state competence of taxation."
The record tax bill should not be a problem for Apple, which made a net profit of $53bn in the 2015 financial year.

Venezuela Opposition Leader, Ceballos Sent Back To Jail


One of Venezuela’s main opposition leaders, Daniel Ceballos, has been sent back to jail. Ceballos had been released from prison last year and placed under house arrest for health reasons.

In a statement, the interior ministry said he was planning to escape this month.

It said Ceballos had planned to coordinate acts of violence at an opposition demonstration planned for 1 September.

He was arrested in March 2014 for inciting violence during protests against food shortages, high inflation and rampant crime.

Best sex positions when you are 30, 40, 50 and 60 years old


Like red wine or Cheddar cheese, some things become only better with years. The same is with sex. For each age, there is a special position that will be just perfect. But this doesn’t mean that if you are 50, you can’t do this in the same positions you did this when you were 20. Well, with some risk weighting.

If you no longer want to risk in bed, we offer you sex positions that will be the best for each age group.

30+
Approximately 25% of pregnant women suffer from pain in the pelvis zone, and 8% keep on putting up with unpleasant sensations for the 2 following years after childbearing. The discomfort usually appears because of the pain in the sacroiliac joint. As a result, many women who are a little bit older than 30, feel pain during making love in some positions. To avoid discomfort, doctors advice the “doggie” position. As hands and legs in such positions rest on the bed or on the floor, the load on pelvis reduces greatly.
Those who have recently become mothers are recommended to have sex in the “spoon” position. It brings the least discomfort for the organism that has just experienced childbirth.
40+
At the age of 40, many people start experiencing problems with loins and the inflammation of the sciatic nerve. In this case, the two above mentioned positions also fit – “doggie” and “spoons”. If you want some variety, then try the position “reverse cowgirl”. The male partner lies down on his back, and the woman sits on him, facing his legs. In this position, it is not recommended for women to bend back to the partner’s body. This may increase pain.
You may also try the position “flatiron”, the variation of the “doggie”. The woman places elbows and knees on her floor, hips are slightly lifted. You may place a pillow under the stomach. Try not to force your back to avoid unpleasant feelings.
50+
In this age, the menopause begins, and the level of estrogen reduces that leads to the dryness and thinning of texture in a genital area. There is also the risk of pelvic organ prolapse – the condition when organs lower down to the vagina direction. In this case, the best position will be when the male partner sits on the bed or chair and the female partner sits on him facing him. In such position, the penetration is more careful. If this position is comfortable for the woman, she can control the frequency and speed of movement.
Another variant that will not cause discomfort is the position when the woman lies down on her back and puts a pillow under her buttocks.
60+
Approximately the third part of men and women at the age of 60 suffer from osteoarthritis. If this is your case, you should exclude positions that have the main load on the knees and hips. They are “doggie” and “cowgirl”. Instead, you should try something in standing position.
If you have a backache, then this position may make it worse, that’s why it would be better for you to pay attention to the variations of the missionary positions.
