How fake doctor deceived us for nine years, by Health Ministry

THE Federal Ministry of Health yesterday said the fake doctor paraded by the police on Tuesday was recruited by the Federal Civil Service Commission and posted to the ministry. The Permanent Secretary in the ministry, Linus Awute, told newsmen in Abuja yesterday that the ministry would demand a refund of the salaries and allowances paid the ‘doctor’ in the past nine years. According to him: “It is important to place it on record that the Federal Ministry of Health does not employ any of its members of staff directly. “He was recruited through the Federal Civil Service Commission which has the statutory powers to do so and then deploys such employed civil servants to any ministry, department or agency according to their discipline and relevance.” Source: Guardian

'BIG BROTHER' CONTESTANT JEFF Dude, You Can't ... Y'Know ... MASTURBATE ON YOUR HOUSEMATES!!

Image
"Big Brother" has a sticky situation ... after houseguest Jeff appeared to masturbate, and then wipe his semen on houseguest Julia's back. The incident was caught on the live feed Thursday night -- Jeff and Julia were lying in bed ... he seemed to be pleasuring himself under the covers while talking to her, and then joked about putting "it" on her. Hard to tell EXACTLY what happens, since it's all under covers -- but viewers believe the jerk was real. Social media is blowing up with people pissed that CBS let this go down ... or on. It's unclear if this will be addressed on Sunday night's broadcast ... but you gotta figure.
