LAGOS cheap nike air max 90 womens , June 9 (Xinhua) -- Nigerian police in the northern state of Kaduna on Friday denied reports that 20 people were kidnapped on Wednesday along the Abuja-Kaduna expressway.
State police chief Agyole Abeh told a news conference in Kaduna that the story is entirely a fabricated falsehood intended to create fear in the minds of citizens.
Abeh added that the police had only recorded an incident where five persons driving along the Kaduna-Abuja expressway were attacked and three of them were robbed while the other two were kidnapped.
"In view of the foregoing, there is no way 20 people could be travelling inside one car can be kidnapped without trace or a report to the police by the relatives of the victims or witnesses to the crime," he said.
He also advised those who patronize the social media to be wary of stories they share especially if they have questionable sources. E

AMMAN, May 30 (Xinhua) -- Jordan condemned a series of terrorist bombings that struck Iraq's capital Baghdad in the last two days, the state-run Petra news agency reported on Tuesday.
The government spokesman Mohammad Momani said in a statement that Jordan strongly condemned such criminal acts that targeted Iraq's security and seeked to disrupt its institutions and efforts to fight terrorism.
Momani pledged Jordan's solidarity with Iraq in the war against "the gangs of killing and destruction," according to the statement.
Momani stressed the need to collect Arab, Islamic and global efforts to counter terrorism and the forces of darkness that target civilians in the region and the world.
Momani cheap nike air max 90 mens , who is also the state minister for media affairs, expressed condolences to the government and people of Iraq over the victims.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 24 (Xinhua) -- Astronomers have captured multiple images of a Type Ia supernova, namely the brilliant explosion of a star, appearing in four different locations on the sky cheap nike air max 90 le , as it was through the "magnifying glass" of a galaxy sitting 2 billion light years away from Earth.
The phenomenon known as "gravitational lensing" is an effect of Albert Einstein's Theory of Relativity, that mass bends light, meaning the gravitational field of a massive object, such as a galaxy, can bend light rays that pass nearby and refocus them somewhere else, causing background objects to appear brighter and sometimes in multiple locations.
However cheap nike air max 90 br , "it is extremely difficult to find a gravitationally lensed supernova, let alone a lensed Type Ia. Statistically, we suspect that there may be approximately one of these in every 50,000 supernovae that we identify," said Peter Nugent, an astrophysicist at in the Computational Research Division (CRD) of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and an author on two recent papers cheap nike air max 90 JCRD , one published in Astrophysical Journal Letters and the other published in the journal Science.
Fortunately, by taking a closer look at the properties of the rare event, namely the 4 billion years old Type Ia supernova, iPTF16geu, Nugent and one of his colleagues at Berkeley Lab have come up with a method, called a pipeline cheap nike air max 90 sneakerboot , for identifying more of these so-called "strongly lensed Type Ia supernovae" in existing and future wide-field surveys.
Astrophysicists believe that if they can find more of these magnified Type Ia's, they may be able to measure the rate of the universe's expansion to unprecedented accuracy and shed some light on the distribution of matter in the cosmos.
"Since the discovery of iPTF16geu," Nugent said, "we now have some thoughts on how to improve our pipeline to identify more of these events."
The process of identifying transient events, like supernovae, begins every night at the Palomar Observatory in Southern California cheap nike air max 90 kpu , where a wide-field camera mounted on the robotic Samuel Oschin Telescope scans the sky. As soon as observations are taken, the data travel more than 640 kilometers, or 400 miles, to the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE's) National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), which is located at Berkeley Lab. At NERSC, machine learning algorithms running on the facility's supercomputers sift through the data in real-time and identify transients for researchers to follow up on.
On September 5 cheap nike air max 90 glow , 2016, the pipeline identified iPTF16geu as a supernova candidate.
At first glance, the event didn't look particularly out of the ordinary. Like most supernovae that are discovered relatively early on, this event got brighter with time. Shortly after it reached peak brightness, Stockholm University Professor in Experimental Particle Astrophysics Ariel Goobar dec.
