This is to sound a very serious note of warning that henceforth all those found culpable and in breach of the existing regulations and guidelines would be swiftly and decisively dealt with in full accordance with the provisions of the law.

“There will be a day for each fellow. A day for America, a day for Australia, a day for pastors, a day for the choir, a day for the people in the legal department, a day for heads of states, etc.
“At the age of 90, after that celebration, then I can begin to get ready to go. But, that I am going to die soon, that’s a lie.”

Sarah Ofili-Adukeh, has taken to her social media page to encourage people as she shared the sad story of how she was pregnant with a set of twins, a boy, and a girl, but lost the pregnancy one month after her traditional wedding.
The ex-model recounted how she lost her babies and how her husband had to go to the cemetery to bury them.
She has since welcomed a baby girl and she said she hopes her post encourages people.
Read her post below ;
”As today ends I have decided to stop calling 29th of Jan the worst day of my life, but now as the day I gained 2 beautiful Angels. I celebrate them! Exactly 3yrs ago, 1 month after our traditional wedding we lost our beautiful set of twins, a boy n a girl.
I remember every pain n sweat and tear… I remember not even worrying about myself but staring at my husband wondering if he wld be ok, after seeing his babies go and still having to support me thru surgery how scary that most have been for him. I remember waking up from surgery n asking for him, I was told how he picked them babies up by himself put them in a box and carried them on his lap in the car all the way to the cemetery. Sat with them till all paper works were done and said goodbye to them on behalf of both of us coz he didn’t want me to wake up and deal with all that. All in one day!
To God be the glory we pulled through our first year of marriage with such heartbreak, also still dealing with my mums recovery and my husband losing his own mum…Whew! As I watch my daughter today I can’t help but wonder “is this what they would have looked like too?”… how sweet to know she’s all in 1! Today we had 2 butterflies around us constantly I thought oh well there they go watching us!
I decided to share this coz when I was depressed n lonely I read other mums stories on IG and they got me thru my days. So maybe there’s just 1 mum out there I can console. The memory and questions never go away, I still cry even now as I type this. U will heal slowly but surely. U will smile again when ur rainbow baby comes. Just like a Chinese cracked bowl, d cracks in ur heart will be filled with gold. Stay strong mama! We are all in this together! Also thank you to our men that have been patient through the healing, God bless you hubby! @zsihughez #alwaysIyaIbeji #miscarriageawareness”
I have taken a deep look into your worth and your vision for Africa. I wish to remind you that wealth without economic freedom is indeed entrapment. In the twenty-first century, almost every institution, industry, etc. relies greatly on online media.
We need economic freedom and we can’t get it without media control.
I’ll give you some examples of what I mean by dropping strong analogies. Twitter was created by Jack Dorsey, Noah Glass, Biz Stone, and Evan Williams in March 2006 and was launched in July of that year. By 2012, more than 100 million users posted 340 million tweets a day, and the service handled an average of 1.6 billion search queries per day. I wish to remind you that the founders are all Americans.
Subsequently, Facebook was founded by Mark Zuckerberg, along with his fellow roommates and students at Harvard College who were Eduardo Saverin, Andrew McCollum, Dustin Moskovitz, and Chris Hughes. Facebook is one of the world’s most valuable companies. It is considered one of the Big Five companies in the U.S Information Technology industry, along with Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Amazon. Apart from Eduardo Luiz Saverin, the rest of Facebook’s cofounders are Americans.
Similarly, Instagram was founded by Kevin Systrom and Mike Krieger in 2010. They founded Instagram in a San Francisco co-working space in 2010. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg described Systrom and Krieger as “extraordinary product leaders.” “I’m looking forward to seeing what they build next,” he said in a statement. This very statement is overwhelming to note; it simply means that Westerners don’t compete among themselves, rather, they work as a team and promote each other to succeed, while the reverse is the case in Africa, as there will be envy and unhealthy competition. This is something everyone should take note of, fighting one another in Africa encourages racial abuse outside Africa and racial belittling by other races.
Tiktok, on the other hand, was founded by Zhang Yiming, a Chinese billionaire internet entrepreneur. He founded ByteDance in 2012 and developed the news aggregator Toutiao and the video-sharing platform TikTok.
Let’s talk about YouTube:
YouTube is now an American online video-sharing platform headquartered in San Bruno, California. Three former PayPal employees: Chad Hurley, Steve Chen, and Jawed Karim—created the service in February 2005. Google bought the site in November 2006 for US$1.65 billion; YouTube now operates as one of Google’s subsidiaries.
My question for you is, where is the social media platform and information technology owned by an African? It is obvious that we rely solely on the West for our wellbeing and redemption – And now, China is our new lord. It defeats the purpose of having the reputation of the most educated people in Africa if not the globe. By now I expect to see one information technology company developed by a Nigerian, which should work smoothly and faster than that of the above social media platforms. I need to remind you, the fact that you have social media accounts with possibly many followers doesn’t mean your accounts can’t be suspended indefinitely by these platforms. If this happens, it will have a negative impact on your fans and businesses, while also creating psychological effects. You all need to be one step ahead. Two incidents should have served as a wake call to us – the permanent suspension of Donald Trump’s social media accounts and the suspension of Tundeednut’s Instagram account. This incident should have made us realize how much we need our own social media platform, of course, westerners will use it as well.
To that effect, these are my strategy:
Announce on media that anyone who is a technology expert or software engineer should come to see you for a project that will create a strong social media network that will stand the test of time. You can name the project Global networker or choose a name that is more inclusive of every nationality. Once it is ready to be launched, hire a team made up of US, UK, and Chinese experts to launch it with the founders. These strategies are then disseminated to their respective countries, thereby letting them know the existence of a new social media network and they will promote safety aspects of it, thereby encouraging other nationalities to have public trust in the platform.
The second strategy is to encourage other music artists to ask their fans to sign up to the social media network and also talk to international artists like Chris Brown, Jay Z, Beyoncé, DJ Khal, Rihanna, Stormzy, and other Caucasian artists in America and Europe. In less than a month, millions of people will subscribe to the social media platform and, on this note, shareholders will call in to buy shares and within a year you will become billionaires in pounds due to the stock market for this platform. Twitter has a stock market including Facebook. This is not to mention the billions of dollars that you will generate from advertisements on this platform.
Remember, there is poor power supply in Nigeria so once you find technology entrepreneurs to create this social network, you will need to provide accommodations for them, and steady power supply and the facilities they need, and see if satellite access may be needed, though they will tell you all that is required to create this social media network. Africa desperately needs to establish social media platforms so that Africans can have absolute independence from Western social media. Tiktok was created by a Chinese national. Please, you need your own don’t be comfortable on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook, they are owned by westerners, they might decide to stifle information coming from Africa any day for economic purposes or political reasons. Davido is capable of funding one and encourage people to join the platform through his fan base all over the world.
By now we should be thinking of creating our own technology not to be importing. We need to break the chain of consumers and be creators, inventors, and entrepreneurs because it is the only way we will get economic growth and freedom without which our testicles will forever be squeezed by Westerners, and now it seems likely to be China. Common China! Remember the squabble of Africa.
I noticed that an average African is too proud of a big penis but that is not as important as having your home-made product and controlling the quality of its production. Although, we all have strengths and weaknesses between westerners and Africans. It is easy to poison a country that imports almost 90 percent of its products. For most canned foods, questions should be asked. Some of these questions include: how were the products produced? how safe are they for consumers? Is there an added addictive substance? I want an Africa that is purged of self-reliance that is how you earn respect from other nationalities. We should compete with the Westerners and Asians, not with our fellow Africans, this will bring the best of us. Envy is poverty indeed and I rest my submission here.

Popular Nollywood Actor, Somadinma Adina recently took to his snapchat page to share a thought-provoking opinion about the type of ladies men should date.
In his words ;

Reality star, Tochi recently ignited war flames after he replied an inquisitive fan who asked to know why he isn’t cool with fellow BBNaija star, Ka3na Kate Jones.
“Are you cool with Ka3na and why aren’t you following each other?”, the follower had asked the heavily bearded reality star.
However, Tochi gave a rather shocking response than a satisfying one. To the fan’s question he replied, “who is Ka3na?”
Ka3na did not like Tochi’s blatant ‘disrespect’ and she took to her Twitter page to drag him for filth.
She wrote ;
“KA3NA” IS SHE WHO FED YOUR TWO LEFT LEGS IN BBN HOUSE (Remember Now) OH! WHO YOU COULD NEVER TALK TRASH IN HER FACE…
RESPECT THEY SAY IS RECIPROCAL!
WE SHOULD ALL BE GUIDED PLEASE! STOP LOOKING FOR CHEAP TRENDS WITH MY NAME… I FEEL YOUR PAINS!
Billionaire Daughter and Actress, Temi Otedola and Mr. Eazi are celebrating their fourth year of undying love.
The couple took to her official Instagram page on Saturday, January 30 and posted an adorable throwback photograph of herself and the self-styled Don when they celebrated their third year together last year.
Eazi and Temi had met when her sister, DJ Cuppy, who is also the singer’s friend, invited him for one of her numerous events in London, United Kingdom.
“I met Temi in London. Her sister was playing at an event, somewhere in Knightbridge and she said, ‘oh come out come out, follow me to this event’. So I followed her to the event and there she was deejaying and all of a sudden it was just me and Temi sitting down and just watching her.”
He went on to add “she didn’t like say meet my sister, you know, she invited her sister, she invited me. And by the time her sister came, she was already playing, so her sister came to the table and it was me and her. So, obviously, you have to socialise, so I said, ‘Hi what’s up, my name is Mr Eazi’”.
Talking about their first date, Temi said she was only being nice to Mr Eazi.
“I did not know he was going to be there that night; me being someone who likes to be friendly to strangers, I was like ‘hey do you live in London? Can I get you a drink? what have you been up to?’ I was just on my usual cute let’s be nice, let’s meet people vibes and I was like this guy is an asshole; like why is he being so rude?”
Mr Eazi replied her saying, “I was trying to let you know that, hey I’m not interested; I’m just here to watch this person and not interested in moving to you.”
He also revealed that he texted her and she took her time to reply.
“I started texting Temi and she was replying to be honest but she was taking her time to reply. So I text her like 10am she will reply me at 12,” he said.
Prince Ned Nwoko, a former Member, House of Representatives, lawyer and philanthropist, has said that he typically ties the knot with a lady within three weeks and that happened with all his wives.
Nwoko who spoke to BBC news in Igbo, said: Our (Regina and him) marriage is solid, based on respect and understanding over time. I met her and I like her, we married within three weeks, I married all my wives within same period, I do not believe in dating anybody I want to marry.”
“You marry them and you begin to fall in love within the marriage. Even in my own culture as it were as a kid in the sixties, people were not dating, they get married, within the families, they choose a wife, most girls are expected to be virgins, they get married and then they build a family from there.
“And because they did not know each other before they got married, there is a lot of excitement and a lot of learning to do, but Regina and I is a story that is interesting because before I met her, I did not know about her, I do not watch movies, I met her the first time when she came to my house with her mother and siblings to my place in Delta, which is a tourist attraction. I saw her and I like her and that was it, you know,” he said.
On his marrying another wife, he said: “Whether I marry another wife is not … she knows that it can happen, I come from a very polygamous environment myself, I love children and I want more children, she knows it and my other wives know this, so we see what happens in the future.”
“You see the average Northerner marrying two, three, four women, they are helping the society because it is the economic downturn that has affected so many women who you see doing prostitution and all that. But the fallacy of it all is that Christianity does not allow that in the South and yet, the average Southern man has 10 girlfriends.
“I love my culture as I know it, not as they are trying to dilute it. Igbo culture is wonderful and should be promoted the way it has always been. But even looking at that, look at your population in Nigeria and what I will call economy of marriage, as an Igbo man with one wife, four children, a Northerner has four wives with five children each, in the next 10 years, 20 years, imagine the population of the Northerner.
“With you, an Igbo person, the population will be like one to five because of this disparity. The gap is getting bigger and Igbos will never catch up because of this self-imposed restriction,” he bemoaned.
A Nigerian lady has narrated how she confronted some men who sexually harassed her for wearing a bum short while passing through a market.
According to @lekpashawtie, the men wanted to get physical after she kept slapping them for touching her butt. She further revealed that she didn’t go into the market but only passed through it to her destination.
Veteran actor Ernest Asuzu’s widow, Jennifer has spoken up against those writing what she described as “rubbish” about her late husband online.
According to Jennifer, people should learn to let the dead rest in peace. She also stated that while some people are comforting her family, others are adding to their pain with what they write online.
She concluded by saying that “the rain does not fall on only one roof”. Watch the video below…
Popular Interior decorator and hotelier, Ehi Ogbebor has taken to her social media page to share a video her boyfriend, Chairman of Lagos state chapter of National Union of Road Transport Worker, MC Oluomo, dancing in their car.
This is coming after it was confirmed that they are currently in a relationship.
See the clip below ;
When news of relationship with the affluent MC Oluomo spread, Ogbebor put out a video refuting claims that her lover bankrolled her business.
In her words ;
“I’m beating my chest to say it. No man spent one dime on my house. If you did and you’re a man and you don’t speak up, God will punish you. I’m betting a $100,000. Come out if you claim to have bankrolled me,” she said.
“Or you spent one Naira in my business or building my house. I built my house myself. I’m on the road at times, four days a week. I do it for myself and my kids. Stop ruing the minds of these little girls.
“You’re making them think they have to be with men for money. Beyonce is with Jay-z. Is he bankrolling her? What are you teaching girls? I will be with a man I care about. He doesn’t need to give me a dime because I don’t need it!
“Come out if you’ve bankrolled me; given me money to go and do business. You better speak. I just bet $100,000.”

Nigerian Entertainers, Zlatan Ibile and DJ Cuppy have been trending on social media for more than 48 hours because of the infamous ‘beef’ between them following the dispute over unpaid royalties for their hit track – Gelato.
Information from Zlatan’s corner hinted he was not compensated for his effort in ‘GELATO’ and it was for this reason he decided to block her on social media.
However, new reports published on Twitter by Journalist, Joey Akan contradicts the former assertion.
His Tweets read ;
New information says Cuppy paid for Zlatan’s flights and accommodation.
Turns out, the charity performance in Abuja was a transactional repayment for an earlier deed by Cuppy.
According to my source, two weeks prior, Cuppy had performed for free at Zlatan and Naira’s show.
She had flown to Abuja with her team and her equipment, where she supported them with an FOC performance. She handled her logistics, and did it for her friendly colleague.
The fundraiser was a professional Goodwill repayment of that deed. He was catered to. And logistics handled
Over 200 people were flown into Abuja for the event. Kwesi Arthur came from Ghana, Skuki and a few others. Everyone was flown, and their hotels were covered.
Why is there a problem then? “Entitlement,” I’m told. “He’s refusing to stick to what was agreed.”
Also interesting to note here that Zlatan Ibile and Cuppy both share the same lawyer, Yemisi. The same person handles all their legal and financial agreements, and there’s a level of fairness expected when it comes to monetary agreements.
Burna Boy‘s alleged ex-girlfriend, Jo Pearl, has revealed that she has found love again and is set to get married in 2022.
The 23-year-old lady, who outed her ‘secret relationship’ with Burna Boy last year, disclosed that she went to Dubai single but was leaving as someone’s girlfriend.
The British model took to her IG story to share the update with her fans and followers. She explained that it has been quite tough but she prayed, cried and God has finally granted her request.
She further added that she is never going back to being single and her marriage is slated for 2022.
She, however, did not reveal any details about the lucky man.
“Came as a hot girl leaving as a full girlfriend.. it’s been real you’ll. I prayed, cried and God answered. I’m out the game never coming back”, she wrote.
Nigerian singer, Paul Okoye known by stage name Rudeboy, has shed more light on the events that led to the messy breakup with his twin brother, Peter Okoye.
The singers were members of defunct music group, P-Square, and inarguably left a mark in the African music industry before their messy separation in 2017.
Since their split, there have been speculations about what truly transpired between the twins but it was gathered that they supposedly separated over irreconcilable family issues.
In an exclusive interview with Saturday Beats, Rudeboy revealed that the music group had lingering issues long before their final separation in 2017.
In his words,
“I actually started my career as a solo artiste and I had recorded quite a number of songs. My twin brother (Peter) also had a dance group which I was part of before but left after some time.
“He [Peter] was brought in to create a unique group [P-Square] that would be different from other groups in existence. I was singing while he would dance, and it was the idea of our elder brother, Jude. We only had a stage collaboration, not a music collaboration.
What made P-Square was the division of labour we practised. I was in charge of singing, Peter handled the dancing aspect and stagecraft, while Jude was our manager and he directed our videos.
“However, it got to a point when one person started making demands and called for the sack of some members of the team. Because we wanted peace to reign, we would let the affected employees go. That went on for some time but it got to a time that things could no longer continue that way.
“Our case is like that of a husband and wife whose marriage is not working but post lovely pictures on social media. People who don’t know the details would see the rosy pictures and plead for the union not to break up. But, they don’t know what is happening behind closed doors. The best thing is actually for them to go their separate ways.
“Some people think that all these started recently but it has been going on for a long time. I can confidently tell you that my first solo album was supposed to be ‘Game Over’ (released in 2007). That title, ‘Game Over’, meant I was done with the group.
I recorded the album as a solo artiste and sent it to some people but they were surprised that I was the only one on the album. People said different things and I later shelved my plan.”
Speaking about a possible collaboration with his brother even if they don’t come back as a music group, The 39-year-old singer said,
“The question is, does he see us together? It is not compulsory that everybody in a music group must sing.
P-Square was never a group of two singers (rather, it was a group of one singer and one dancer). I honestly tried my best for the group to work. There are so many issues the public are unaware of that led us to this point. I choose not to say many things because I want to protect my family.”
Reality TV star, Tochi Okechukwu has reacted to the viral reports that he is in a romantic relationship with fellow BBNaija alumni, Princess.

The actor also ignited the rumour after he took to his Instagram story to share a GIF photo of them chilling together during an outing.
Tochi has now reacted to the reports flying around about his supposed relationship with Princess.

Media personality, Toke Makinwa has taken to Twitter to rant about the patriarchal attitude of Africans.
According to her, the spirit of Patriarchy in Africa is too intense that it makes her sick. She condemned how ladies are tagged “prostitutes” if they go from one relationship to another, while Africans turn a blind eye to men who do the same thing.
The lifestyle enterpreneur further stated that fornication is not a one-gender thing and that people can’t judge others because they sin differently.
She tweeted,
“The spirit of Patriarchy is so strong in Africa it makes me sick how can you say women who go from man to man will have questions to answer on judgment day, what of men who go from woman to woman? They’ll be welcomed into the pearly gates with open arms? Help me understand
When it is a woman she is promiscuous, when it is a man, he is living it up.
fornication is no respecter of gender and you can’t judge someone cos you sin different or you are of a different gender.”
