Meet the man with the largest joystick in the world
The man with the world’s longest joystick: 54-year-old man rejects the chance to have his 18-inch member reduced (but he won’t be able to have sex unless he does so)
The man with the world’s longest joystick has rejected the possibility of having a reduction – even if it means he won’t ever have sex.
Roberto Esquivel Cabrera, 54, from Saltillo, Mexico, has a joystick measuring a colossal 18.9 inches when flaccid – touching his knee.
He made headlines worldwide in 2015 after a video went viral showing him weighing his member to prove its authenticity.
His half-metre joystick smashed the unofficial record believed to belong to US actor Jonah Falcon, whose joystick was 9.5 inches flaccid and 13.5 inches when erect.
‘I would like to be in the Guinness Book of Records but they don’t recognise this record,’ he told Barcroft TV.
‘I am famous because I have the biggest joystick in the world. I am happy with my joystick, I know nobody has the size I have.’
But despite his pride, members of the medical community have urged him to at least consider a penile reduction.
Dr Jesus David Salazar Gonzalez said: ‘We have advised him “Roberto, the best thing for you is that the doctors give a normal shape to your joystick so that it doesn’t hurt you, in order to have sexual relationships, in order to have children”.
whoever has the bigger joystick is more macho.
‘It’s something that makes him different to the rest of the people and makes him feels special.’
Doctors recently did a thorough examination of Mr Cabrera’s joystick, confirming suspicions that the bulk of his nearly 20-inch joystick is foreskin.
His penile glands stretch only seven inches, meaning the rest of his member is completely foreskin and blood vessels.
The sheer size of Mr Cabrera’s joystick causes him a number of health problems, including frequent urinary tract infections because not all his urine escapes his lengthy foreskin.
While he keeps his colossal member wrapped in bandages to escape chaffing.
He is also unable to sleep chest down and has to put his joystick on its own pillow to escape discomfort during the night.
And an active sex life is off limits for him as his joystick has too much girth to have intercourse.
Mr Cabrera added: ‘Some people ask me if I put some condoms on it and the answer is: I cannot. I can never penetrate anyone because it is too thick.’
While living in the US, he attempted to have sex twice, but the first woman backed out as soon as she saw his joystick.
While the other one had to stop because it was too painful.
Mr Cabrera says his joystick is a ‘disability’ and stops him working – forcing him to rely on food banks to survive.
uniform like anybody in the companies and also I cannot get on my knees,’ he said.
‘I cannot run fast and so the companies think badly of me. They say that they will call me, but they never do.’
4 countries that will be threatened with Trump's inauguration
With Donald Trump being inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States, there are so many countries that may be deeply affected by this event while wondering what his administration has in store for them.
File photo of Donald Trump.
Although the swearing in ceremony is today, 20th January 2016, there are mixed feelings about this event. Majority of the people are anxious over what the new president would do. There are speculations over the things the new president would do upon being sworn in.
They are unsure of him keeping to his promises; while many will accept and welcome him as the president of the United States, there are a few leaders that dread what this inauguration would birth for them.
Check out some of the countries that may be put on edge with the swearing in of Donald Trump:
1. Japan
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Donald Trump seem to have common interests. While Trump wants Japan to strengthen its military capacity and accept responsibility for its own security, Abe wants the same too.
The latter wants a strong relationship with Putin's Russia which is considered to be an important source of energy for Japan.
Abe has high hopes of striking a deal with Moscow to gain control of islands lost to the Soviets after World War II. If by chance Trump is able to tighten bonds with China, Japan will be caught in a fix.
2. France
With Trump's victory, voters may choose the far-right national front in the coming elections. Marine Le Pen has promised to start a bid to lead France out of the EU if elected president.
Le Pen's opponents are skeptical as they are unsure of what Trump's position may be; if he backs her up, that will be a great drive for her. They are also bothered that Trump may ignore them if Russia decides to boost her candidacy through some sort of mischief.
3. Germany
Trump's election was marked by Chancellor Angela Merkel with an offer of cooperation that involves freedom and democracy. Germany looks forward to working with Trump if only he keeps campaign promises to treat to treat Muslims and Mexicans with contempt.
It should be known that Merkel led the European condemnation of Putin's intervention in Ukraine. He also fought for the effort to impose and extend sanctions in Russia.
If Trump embraces Russia's strongmanit will undermine Merkel and empower those in Europe. Those in Europe have a different view about punishing Russia as they think it could be self destructing.
4. The Baltic states
The inauguration of Donald Trump as the next US president has made the Baltic states anxious. Vladimir Putin has justified his right in protecting the ethnic Russians that live within the border. The percentages of Russians in Latvia and Estonia are higher than those found in Ukraine.
With Trump willing to have a new arrangement with the Kremlin, Latvia and Estonia are kept on the edge. Latvia and Estonia are ready to wall up along their respective borders with Russia. Setting some sort of protection at the borders will make it hard for Russian soldiers to misbehave.

IPOB fires back at MASSOB's founder
The indigenous people of Biafra (IPOB) has replied the founder of MASSOB, Uwazurike, over the allegations he made against Nnamdi Kanu
- IPOB gave Uwazurike 4 days to provide evidence to back up his accusations or the group will bring out incriminating evidences against MASSOB’s founder
The Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) on Thursday, January 12, fired back at the founder of Movement of the Actualisation of Sovereign state of Biafra (MASSOB), Ralph Uwazurike over the allegations he made against Nnamdi Kanu.
IPOB asked Uwazuruike to substantiate his allegation of fraud against their leader Nnamdi Kanu, or get ready to be exposed.
IPOB fires back at Uwazurike
The group in a press statement made available to Punch, in Awka, Anambra state by IPOB’s Deputy leader, Uche Mefor gave Uwazuruike four days to provide such information.
It maintained that if Uwazurike was unable to provide evidence, IPOB would bring incriminating evidence against the MASSOB founder that would make his followers to lynch him.
IPOB said that if Uwazurike had been committed to the restoration of Biafra as he made people believe, there wouldn’t have been need for the formation of other pro-Biafra liberation movements like IPOB, BZM and even his BIM.
The statement in parts reads: “On behalf of Mazi Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), and the entire Biafrans, we are giving Raphael Lebeanya Uwazuruike four days to provide evidence that Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB under the leadership of Nnamdi Kanu are fraudsters. The Punch newspaper on January 10, 2017, reported that Raphael Lebeanya Uwazuruike “described Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB as fraudsters who are out to deceive gullible people.
“We in IPOB at this moment demand that Uwazuruike must provide evidence to prove that Nnamdi and IPOB members under his leadership are fraudsters. Uwuzuruike’s evidence must be proven beyond every reasonable doubt. The evidence must not be anecdotal or mere conjecture, but verifiable and provable acts of fraud carried out by either Mazi Nnamdi Kanu or members of IPOB.
“You are about to be unmasked big time. Your life will no longer be the same after the 15th of January 2017. Go and prepare for your final disgrace and exit from the efforts to restore Biafra. Our facts and evidence will speak for itself. You are about to understand why IPOB is a monster that consume enemies of Biafra both within and outside.
“At the end of this process even those that never knew before now would come to the inescapable conclusion that Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB are whiter than white and whiter than snow. You Lebeanya Uwazuruike will testify with your own mouth in public that Nnamdi Kanu and his IPOB has the divine mandate from the Most High Supreme Creator of the Universe Chukwu Okike Abiama púrú Ãme ihe nile to restore Biafra in truth and honesty.”
Meanwhile, the trial of the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) Nnamdi Kanu has been adjourned to Wednesday, February 10.
At the hearing on January 12, counsel to Kanu informed the court of an application by the defendant to squash the charges against him.
Ifeanyi Ejiofor said that the proof of evidence submitted before the court by the prosecution lacks ingredients of the charges against him.

AFC Bournemouth Vs Arsenal (3 – 3)
The Gunners showed great character to come from three goals down against Bournemouth, but questions will once again be asked over whether they have enough to win the title
In normal circumstances, coming from three goals down with 20 minutes to go would be seen as a triumph, even for a team of Arsenal’s standards. But following recent defeats, Arsene Wenger did not need another slip-up.
A cold evening on the south coast with less than 48 hours rest certainly did no favours for an Arsenal side who almost lived up to their billing of imploding when it matters most. For so long the masters of self-desturction, it seemed for 70 minutes that they would give their slim title dreams up without so much as a whimper.
In what is likely to be the toughest of their fixtures this month, with games against Swansea, Burnley and Watford yet to come in January, Arsenal’s abject first half performance was summed up when Hector Bellerin was easily beaten by Charlie Daniels in the 16th minute, before the Englishman cut inside and finished past Petr Cech.
A penalty was conceded just four minutes later after Granit Xhaka hauled down Ryan Fraser in the box, with Callum Wilson scoring his second successive spot-kick against the Gunners after netting in the reverse fixture in north London. Arsenal ended a torrid opening period without a shot on target and without Francis Coquelin, who hobbled off with a suspected hamstring injury just as Mohamed Elneny had jetted off to the African Cup of Nations.
The reintroduction of Shkodran Mustafi, a player who has still yet to experience defeat as an Arsenal player, didn’t make the positive impact Wenger would have hoped for, although inspired second half substitutions from the Frenchman did rescue his team from the brink in the end.
That was only after Bellerin was again left for dead – this time by Fraser – before Cech allowed the Scot’s low effort to squeeze through his legs. The Arsenal of old would have simply wilted and allowed the walkover to continue.
But this Gunners squad do seem to have the characted that previous Wenger incarnations have lacked. Alexis Sanchez headed in the first on 70 minutes and five minutes later a supreme strike from Lucas Perez put Arsenal within touching distance of getting something from the game.
Deep into the second minute of stoppage time a header from Olivier Giroud salvaged a point for a side whose first half performance was Arsenal’s worst of the campaign, but the spirit shown in the second was quite spectacular.
But for all their celebrations following Giroud’s equaliser, could their title hopes now be over? A Tottenham victory over Chelsea tomorrow may provide more of an indicator to that question.
Fayose challenges Buhari over N5000 payment
Governor Fayose has described the payment of N5000 to poor people as a propaganda
– The Ekiti governor claimed his people have not received any payment from the federal government
– He said he pays N10000 to poor people in his state
Governor Ayodele Fayose has challenged President Muhammadu Buhari to publish the names of those who have received the N5000 stipend the federal government claimed it has paid.
The federal government announced that it has started disbursing the N5000 stipend which was promised to poor Nigerians by President Buhari.
Fayose challenges Buhari over N5000 payment
One million most vulnerable Nigerians will be rewarded with a N5,000 monthly stipend through the Conditional Cash Transfer (CCT) of its Social Investment Programmes (SIP).
The Tribune reports that, the presidency announced that the government has begun the payment.
Laolu Akande, the Senior Special Assistant on Media and publicity to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo disclosed that the implementation of the programme was part of the Muhammadu Buhari administration’s determined efforts to touch the lives of Nigerians positively.
The Punch however reports that that Governor Fayose challenged the president to make public names of those who have received as Ekiti people have not received anything yet.
Fayose claimed only All Progressives Congress (APC) states will agree that they have received payment.
“A blind man will say it is when it gets into my mouth that I will say you are feeding me, not promises.”
He said the ruling party “should come to the reality that Nigerians are hungry and also angry and that Nigerians are no longer interested in empty promises.”
Fayose accused the APC of focusing on 2019 rather than making the country better and said the project was a World Bank own with payment made since 2016.
The governor said he was already paying poor people N10000 in Ekiti without delay.
“Federal government’s N5,000 payment to the poor was designed in a way that the state governors are also involved because they are to clear and present prospective beneficiaries before payments are made.”

Fireworks display electrocuted 5 people on New year’s day
The burning transformer
At least six people have died in Mushin, a densely-populated Lagos neighbourhood, following the spontaneous celebrations that greeted the crossover to the New Year last Sunday.
The victims were electrocuted after some youths threw firecrackers at a transformer, triggering an electric spark that severed a high-tension cable from a pole.
The incident happened at 12:30 a.m. on Sunday.
The victims were part of a Muslim congregation participating in a crossover vigil organised by Temidayo Central Mosque on Ogunmokun Street.
A 300-Level Statistics student of Olabisi Onabanjo University (OOU), Ago-Iwoye, Ogun State, Wasiu Adio Apesin, died in the incident.
The victim returned from school on Saturday and went to the mosque for the vigil.
The Nation gathered that the victims assembled on Adedoja Street, opposite the mosque, to participate in the crossover vigil. The transformer from where the electric sparks started is located on Asaoku Street, which is about 500 metres from the mosque. The electric sparks moved along the high-tension cable to the pole opposite the mosque and got the cable severed.
Our correspondent gathered that four people died on the spot where the cable fell. Two later died during the struggle to detach the energised cable from the victims.
It was learnt that seven people were severely injured. They included a 16-year-old Lawal Adeyemo, who resides five houses away from the mosque, and a 60-year-old man identified as Mr. Olalekan, a resident of Adedoja Street, who was said to be in a coma at the Gbagada General Hospital at the time of filing this report.
Osinbajo reveals why Buhari's government is slow
The administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is slow because there is no quick fix to the problems facing the nation's economy, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has stressed.

Osinbajo says it is not easy to change Nigeria immediately
In a statement late Thursday, December 22, 2016, the vice president noted that there is no country that can make progress without some pain.
Daily Trust reports that the statement quoted Osinbajo making the comment when he paid an unscheduled visit to the Mpape artisans’ village in Abuja.
He pleaded with the people to continue to believe that the government remains focused on improving key sectors to revive the economy and create jobs.
"We're trying to deal with the problem in the Niger Delta, address farming, industry and the economy so that this problem you're talking about will be fixed permanently," Osinbajo said while assuring the people of the commitment of the government to support the growth of small and medium scale enterprises.
Stressing that the government was making progress, the vice president admitted that the present administration was slow because there have been a lot of damages in the past.
"For instance look at what is happening in the Niger Delta; that's where we get most of the money.
"But when the boys in the Niger Delta decided to blow up the pipelines; production dropped from the 2 million barrels per day that we used to do to 1 million per day and we lost 60 percent of what we used to earn from oil.
"That's partly responsible for the problem that you see today,’’ he said while noting that the country was on the path to a sustainable rice production for domestic consumption.
"Now, there are many people with jobs because we're beginning to produce rice, mill it locally and distribute.
"In the meantime, it'll be expensive and when it's expensive, there'll be suffering. But that's the only way we're going to stop importing rice," he said.
