Forget your 4x4, it's time for the SIX BY SIX: Mercedes launches G63 - their first six-wheeled model since the Nazi era

The outrageous Mercedes G63 AMG 6x6 (left and top right) is a limited edition model based on the iconic G-Wagon. It has been designed to have the off-road capabilities of a tank, accelerate like a hot hatch and provide the luxury feel of a limousine. The new model is not the first six-wheel off-roader from the German firm, with Hitler eight G4s (bottom right) during the Third Reich. The G4 was a heavy-duty off-road car Mercedes produced for the German army between 1934 and 1939.

Boko Haram Murders Two Party Officials Who Welcomed Jonathan To Borno

Two top leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party in Borno State were yesterday assassinated by gunmen suspected to be operatives of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram. The slayings came less than one week after the officials participated in welcoming President Goodluck Jonathan during his tour of the troubled state.

The victims were Usman Gula (who was the PDP's vice chairman for Southern Borno), and Hajia Gamboa, who served as the party’s women’s leader for Shehuri ward in Maiduguri. A security source told SaharaReporters that both officials were killed by gunmen yesterday at their respective homes. The source added that, even though no group had claimed responsibility for the assassinations, the State Security Service and the Borno State police command were working on the assumption that the attacks were the handiwork of Boko Haram.

“We’re carrying out our investigations,” the source told SaharaReporters.

Twin sisters believed to be Amsterdam's oldest prostitutes have retired after more than 50 years each in the sex trade.

Louise and Martine Fokkens, 70, have finally decided they are too old for the business after claiming to have slept with 355,000 men between them in a combined 100-year career.

Louise, a mother of four, has said her arthritis now makes some sexual positions 'too painful'.

And mother-of-three Martine admits she is finding it hard to attract new punters - except one elderly man who still comes for his weekly sado-maschism session.


She said: "I couldn't give him up. He's been coming to me for so long it's like going to church on a Sunday."

The pair were the subject of a documentary film last year called Meet the Fokkens, and have now written a book about their combined 100-years of sexual exploits called The Ladies of Amsterdam.

Both women - who usually dress in identical red clothes - became prostitutes before the age of 20 to survive financially after escaping violent relationships.



They now look back on the 'golden years' of the profession before the Netherlands legalised prostitution and the sex trade was invaded by 'eastern European mafia'.

Louise said: "It is very different now. We used to sit in the windows with clothes on. Today they are totally naked.

"There are few Dutch women and no sense of community these days."Photo - Amsterdam's oldest prostitutes retire at 70 after having sex with 355,000 men


Martine added: "The legalisation of brothels in 2000 has not improved prostitutes' lives.

"There is no point working just for tax. That is why the girls are working from the internet and from home - you are less likely to be spotted by the taxman.

"It is better for the pimps and the foreigners, but not for the Dutch girls."

Martine and Louise said they now hoped to be able to live off their earnings from the book and film rights.

Robbers Invade Lagos Airport, Kill Two Policemen

Heavily armed robbers on Wednesday night invaded the International Wing of the Murtala Mohammed Airport Lagos, killed two policemen and made away with a huge amount of foreign currencies from some bureau-de-change operators at nation’s premier gateway, officials said.

The dare devil robbers, who arrived the airport some few minutes to nine, headed for the BDC operators centre near the car park and started shooting sporadically, eyewitnesses said.

The robbers, numbering over 10, were said to have been engaged in a gun duel for about 30 minutes by policemen attached to the airport.

The gunfight, it was learnt, resulted in the death of two policemen and one armed robber, who was said to have tied local magical bands all over his arms and body.

As at a few minutes past 9pm, the two dead policemen were being conveyed in a van to the mortuary, according to eyewitnesses.

The Commissioner of Police, Airport Command, Mr. Bayo Ajileye, could not be reached for comments. His telephone line was switched off when our correspondent made a call.

However, the General Manager, Corporate Communications, Mr. Yakubu Dati, confirmed the robbery.

He, however, said he could only confirm the death of one of the robbers. He said the level of casualties was being ascertained.

He added, “The situation has since been brought under control by the swift intervention of joint security force. They were apparently attempting to rob a bureau de change operator near the airport. Normal operations and flight have not been affected by the incident.”

The event has exposed the porous security network of the nation’s flagship airport.

Last year, robbers came to the airport and made away with millions of dollars from BDC operators.

An eyewitness said the robbers came into the airport through the car park.
