The NWFP government has not yet received the payment of Rs10 billion as announced by the Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani to clear the electricity dues and this has prompted the NWFP government’s decision to stay out of the next NFC meeting in Karachi, source said.

Another reason for the decision is that the NWFP government had demanded of the federation in the previous meetings of NFC to increase by 5 percent the amount of money provided for tackling terrorism but so far there is no progress in this regard, source said.

Talking to media, the Premier said NRO is a thing of past, therefore, there is need for bringing it up anymore.

He said the government reinstated the Chief Justice and the deposed judiciary through an executive order.

He said Balochistan issue is not a new one, as the province has been facing deprivation for the last 62 years. We are also well aware of the terrorist activities in Balochistan and that exchange of views will be held during meeting with PML-N Chief Nawaz Sharif, he added.

To a question, he said Kerry Lugar Bill is a US law and not Pakistan’s. “No compromise will be made on the national security and nuclear program of Pakistan,” he asserted, adding, it is up to us to either accept or reject the aid under KLB.

He said it was the decision of the judiciary to present NRO before the Parliament.

BeBe Winans wife is pisssed! So after Oprah basically black balls Chris Brown for beating up Rhianna, she goes and decides to have gospel artist BeBe Winans, who has a domestic violence charge pending on him now, on her show.

What kind of foolishness is that? Our friends over at eurweb.cpm are reporting that Winans ex-wife she is very hurt that Oprah would make the decision to have BeBe Winans on the show.

The crazy thing is, BeBe Winans was arrested in February, the day right before Oprah had aired her domestic violence special as her response to the Chris Brown and Rhianna incident. And not only is BeBe going to be on the show, he is the host of “Oprah’s Karaoke Challenge,” which is a nationwide competition to find the best karaoke singer.

In my opinion Oprah is being a little contradictive. If she is going to allow BeBe on the show, then why not Chris Brown? What do ya’ll think?
