Rania Youssef, an Egyptian actress who wore a revealing dress to the Cairo Film Festival is to go on trial on charges of "inciting debauchery". Youssef appeared in a lacy, black, see-through outfit that exposed most of her legs, outraging many Egyptians, though some said she should be able to wear what she wanted.

Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has finally been issued a visa to the United States. A family source disclosed this to TheCable on Saturday and confirmed that the former vice-president has left Nigeria for the UK, where he will spend some time before flying to the US.

The unidentified Nigerian man apparently walked in on his German lover and another man (said to be a Nigerian whom he knows) in bed and went berserk. The man who filmed the incident can be heard shouting at his lover in the video why she brought the man to the house because he went to work. The German woman replied that the house belongs to her and she can do whatever she wants.
