“Hushpuppi of Journalism” – Kiki Mordi dragged for taking full credit for BBC “Sex-for-grade” documentary and allegedly cheating colleagues of millions in grant

Kiki Mordi dragged

Sex-for-grade Journalist, Kiki Mordi has been dragged in the mud on social media for taking credit for the BBC documentary, which brought her to the limelight and refusing to acknowledge the original journalist, who pitched the idea.

Kiki Mordi dragged

The award-winning journalist’s name has been trending on micro-blogging platform, Twitter, for hours after a fellow journalist called her out for being a journalism fraud.

Kiki Mordin dragged

The journalist, identified as Ruona J. Meyer, was provoked when Kiki was honored with the 2020 Michael Elliott Award for African Storytelling on Wednesday, December 11.

According to her, Kiki Mordi was not the brain behind the “Sex for Grade” documentary and has been the only one getting all the recognition and grants awarded for the work.

Ruona in a series of tweet wrote,

Kiki, make sure this time you at least share whatever prize money there is with O.O and acknowledge her – given this was all her story as pitched, sourced/started. Real journalists have honour and also hold themselves to account, not just the government. #TruthIsSacrosanct

O.O a fellow female journalist did not get a fair deal, and you remain complicit and a beneficiary of that. The facts, complaints, responses and even her thread are there.

Better make it right because journalism can’t insist on ethics & fairness from others, yet cheat within.
For any bright sparks, I was in that newsroom when N.O and O.O pitched that story, so don’t try me today… I suggest you try Jesus instead. He is a better option.
#RealJournosHaveHonour

 

Kiki Mordi dragged

Another writer, Harri Obi, confirming Ruona’s allegations stated that the documentary was pitched and conceptualized by one Oge Obi.

According to her, Kiki’s only job was to narrate the story but after she became famous for the work, she refused to share the international grants worth millions she has won with her colleagues.

See her post below,

Kiki Mordi dragged

Reacting to the allegations, Kiki said Ruona is a mad woman and people shouldn’t take her bait. See her tweets below,

pastor defiles

The Imo State Police Command has arrested a 49-year-old pastor, identified as George Amaechi Okeaghalam, for allegedly defiling a 5-year-old girl in Owerri, Imo state.

Pastor defiles

Report of the alleged act of the pastor was shared online by an NGO (Sweet Mothers Foundation) on Wednesday, December 9.

According to the report, the pastor, said to be an acquaintance and neighbor of the victim’s family lured the little girl to his apartment while she was playing in their resident in Umuguma village and had carnal knowledge of her. He also threatened to kill the victim if she reveals what he did to her to anyone.

After the incident, the little girl looked disturbed, moody and walked unsteadily, which attracted the attention of her mother.

Acting on motherly instinct, she lifted her daughter’s skirt and observed that her pant was stained with blood.

Pastor defiles

After persuading her, the child allegedly disclosed how the pastor lured her to his house and ‘did something to her’.

The NGO also attached a wedding invitation card to the post, which shows that the pastor’s wedding was slated for this Saturday, December 12, at Heaven Power Believers Solution Ministry in Owerri.

pastor defiles

It was gathered that the pastor is currently in police custody and the victim is already undergoing treatment.

pastor defiles

Read the NGO’s full post below,

“The victim’s mother told of how she came back and met a disturbed and moody girl with a gait that suggested she has been harmed. Out of instinctive wire, she reached for her skirt and gazed at a blood-stained pant. After persuasion and her favorite treat, her daughter disclosed how she went in search of her playmate and decided to fill in her play session with sand castle when she didn’t meet her playmate.

According to her, Uncle asked her to follow him to his house and asked her to lay on the bare toilet tiles where he “did something to her”, threatened to kill her and take her away from her mum if she says a thing.

Since Tuesday, little girl’s mother has been sad, confused and shocked. She only spoke to few women in low tones. As fear-gripped as she is, the other women held only subtle powwows in order not to incite “trouble” or “touch the annointed” as as the accused person is a pastor, a holy cankerworm accorded all the morally right and decenct-filled respect.

It was not until the whispers got to the mother’s brother last night that they matched to the church buiding of Pastor George, 49. He denied knowing the victim but when it became clear, he admitted knowing her but pointed finger at his plumber.

Meanwhile, the little girl repeatedly made eye contact with the pastor when asked “who did this to you” and go on to narrate the heart-wrenching incident when taken out of George’s sight.

The Pastor has been arrested while the poor girl is receiving treatment in a hospital. She was still spotting around 4pm today before admission.

As you read and share, remember Pastor George is not a stranger. He is a well known person in the family and has personally handed his wedding IV to the victim’s mother…

itel Supports Dreams: Supporting the Aspirations of Young Nigerians

Conceived by itel Mobile to celebrate the Christmas season with her communities, the campaign serves an even greater purpose – supporting the dreams of young Nigerians.

In August this year, 11-year-old ballet dancer Anthony Madu rode and rose to fame on the back of a viral video of his inspiring study session shared on social media. For customer-centric itel Mobile, it’s more support for more ‘Anthonys’ in the ‘Every Dream Matters’ campaign.

To drive the campaign’s essence, itel visited two Lagos-based ballet education and creative art schools on December 5. One of them is the Leap of Dance Academy, Ajangbadi, the training establishment that facilitated Anthony’s success. The other being Patya Expressions Academy, Akowonjo.

itel Mobile made the visits to donate smart television sets, stationaries, goodie bags and sanitizers to 150 young ballet dancers undertaking studies at the schools. As the donations took shape, games and mini-parties were hosted to keep the fun going. A case of Christmas coming early for the young ballerinas and the schools.

In all of these, the question “why ballet?” pops up. The performance-driven field of human endeavour dwells in gracefulness and discipline. And it also extends to creativity and interesting mastery. Perhaps these values inspired itel Mobile to initiate and bankroll the events.

Because the focus is on young persons, the smartphone and home appliance brand through the ‘Every Dream Matters’ initiative pushes for a productive and sustainable society. A society where people can dream dreams, get encouragement for these dreams, and have their lives transformed positively.

Although the ‘Every Dream Matters’ campaign is a novel corporate social responsibility effort, it is a vivid move that has the potential of opening up relatively unknown fields for supports of this form. Commendable.

Sosoliso plane crash 15 years later: Lady pays emotional tribute to her sister who died in the accident; says their mum never recovered

Today, 10th of December, 2020 makes it 15 years since the Sosoliso Airlines flight 1145 crash-landed in Port Harcourt airport resulting in 108 loss of lives on board including 60 students of Loyola Jesuit College Abuja, Pastor Bimbo Odukoya and Nollywood actress, Uchenna Nnanna’s sister, Olaedo.

Taking to her Facebook page on Thursday morning, Uchenna Nnanna-Maduka’s sister, Ngozi Nnanna Noel Ogamba, penned a touching tribute to their late sister.

Read below,

10th December 2005-10th December 2020. 15 whole years without you OLAEDO’M:

We will never forget. The Sosoliso Plane Crash blew you and the other 108 passengers away leaving behind 2 survivors. Omagwa PH Airport witnessed a tragedy it is yet to recover from 15 whole years after.

We have missed you Edoo nwannmem. Dad and Mom have come to meet you. Mom had your name on her lips always. She never recovered from your sudden departure.

My sister and my one and only true love….everyday I think of you and wish you were here. Your love…laughter and jokes were priceless and no one have been able to give me that since you were gone. Irreplaceable is what you are. Keep resting in peace Edoo nne….may your soul….dad and mom continually rest in peace….Amen!

Yesterday 9th December I had to revisit the full report about the crash online again and this time saved it in my laptop. What lessons Nigeria have learnt from the Crash I really do not know….the full report as made available online by the Federal Ministry of Aviation stated that:

1. Only one fire fighting truck was available at the airport at the time of the crash

2. No ambulance at the airport

3. Summary of the crash remains…missed approach due to pilot error aggravated by wind shear.

4. Late Pastor Bimbo Odukoyas PA was among the 2 survivors with Kechi Okwuchi and she has remained silent 15 years after. She was conscious and the world expected her to talk but she has chosen not to till now….only God knows why and best.

I thank Mater Misericodie Catholic Church Port Harcourt our Parish for Immortalising you together with the other 9 parishioners lost in the crash…..the Loyola Jesuit angels and the Rev Fr.

Someday I may need to write about what really happened as much as I know. 15 years gone and the whole incident is still fresh in my memory. From the airport to the hospitals to the mortuaries…..haaaaa I can never forget….all the drama that played out….hmmmmm….a lot happened from 10th December to 16th of December the day you were buried that people do not know about. I will tell the story someday. Yes I will. Another book in the making.

Now more than ever I feel the urge to tell the world all that happened to you and all that I know but until then Edoo my sister keep resting in peace my Angel and greet Jesus….Mary….Dad and Mom ok…

You memory and legacies lingers

The whole scenery attracted the attention of neighbours who asked him to rush to a Jahi clinic for treatment. The pastor however went to a police station and accused the lady of trying to kill him.

It was gathered that the lady who was wearing the Pastor’s shirt and boxers as seen in the video shared, just passed out from school and wants to do her clearance.

She also accused the pastor of also promising to give her money to take care of her clearance. It was also revealed that the Pastor’s wife is a gynecologist in Bauchi state and rarely comes home.

“Broke men shouldn’t date because when i was broke, i wasn’t in a relationship” – BBNaija star, Ifu Ennada

Big Brother Naija 2018 star, Ifu Ennada, has warned ‘broke men’ to avoid her as she’s not ready to get into a relationship with a man who has nothing going on for him.

She made this known via her Instagram story as she stated that she wasn’t looking for any relationship when she was broke and as such, broke men should not be looking for who to date… they should instead, build themselves.

In her words ;

“Broke men shouldn’t date.
“It’s the broke men in my DM that are making me laugh presently.

“See my posts on relationship are never an open call for applicants.

“But if you must seek a relationship with any lady like me, make sure you have something going for you.

“When I was broke, I wasn’t looking for a relationship. Building yourself should come before actively chasing a lady that’s ‘trying for herself’.

“This goes for women too. Build yourself and you can choose the type of people you want to date.”

BBNaija Big Man, Kiddwaya, shades critics who say he talks too much.

Big Brother Naija star and Billionaire son, Terseer Kiddwaya better known as Kiddwaya, has reacted after he was yet again dragged on social media over his post.

Kiddwaya had shared a photo of himself and accompanied it with a ‘humble’ caption, saying he’s neither a star nor a king but a nobody.

However, some social media users felt he was beginning to ‘Talk too much’, an attitude which shouldn’t be seen in a grown man.

In his reaction, Kiddwaya took to his page to write ;

If only they Channelled the same energy to their constituencies

In another post, he wrote ;

The difference between you and I is hard work. The rest is just excuses
