”COVID19 is vicious, relentless and made me the most unwell I have ever been in my life” – iRokoTV boss, Jason Njoku says after recovering from Coronavirus

-

November 7, 2020

Nigerian clergyman, Chris Oyakhilome, is of the opinion that US President, Donald Trump, is hated by many in the US and the world in general because of his support for Christians and the tenets of the Christian faith.

Days after the general election held on November 3, the US is yet to declare a president. President Trump has since alleged that the electoral process was rigged and has indicated interest to challenge the process in court.

While speaking in his church on Friday, November 6, Oyakhilome said;

”There are those who think that Trump, the Presidnet of the United States, is hated by many Americans. He is not hated many Americans. I want to tell you the truth. He is not hatred, Trump is not the problem. They don’t ahte Trump. They hate those that Trump seems to support.

They are angry at Trump for supporting Christians. So the real ones they hate are you who are Christians. That is what the hatred of Trump is all about. It’s got nothing to do with Trump.

Before he started giving his voice in support of Christians and before he started giving his voice in support of Israel, he was their darling, they loved him. But because he didn’t come for their sponsorship and they didn’t expect him to become President, they blamed the Christians for voting him into office and that is what they hate him for.

If you are a Christian, better know this. Don’t think that if we just get Trump out of the way then everything will just calm. It will not be calm. They hate you and he seems to protect you, that is the problem.”, he said

Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. has been elected the 46th president of the United States, after defeating President Donald Trump in one of the most divisive elections in U.S. history.

Biden’s victory sets a major milestone in American history. His running mate, U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris of California, becomes the first woman and first person of color to win election to the vice presidency.

But then the 77-year-old Biden is used to helping a younger running mate make history: He served as vice president to Barack Obama, who became the 44th president in 2009 — and the first African-American to hold the nation’s highest office.

As Biden was poised to become the 46th president on Friday night, he appeared on national TV and confidently assured the country that victory was at hand.

“The numbers tell us a clear and convincing story: We’re going to win this race,” he said.

“Modern wives will never do this” – Man appreciates his wife as she kneels and bows down to serve his food

By

November 7, 2020

A Nigerian man has taken to social media to shower encomium on his wife after she served him food in a traditional way.

The exemplary wife after preparing a delicious meal for her husband, took the food to him in the siting room where he sat to watch Tv, then she proceeded to kneel down and bow her head while she served him.

The husband who was surprised by her distinctive show of respect and love took to Twitter to appreciate her.

Sharing the photos online, he stated that modern wives would never do such for their husbands.

However, this has stirred mixed reactions on the micro-blogging platform. While some Netizens commended the wife many others described the gesture as excessive and uncalled for.

A Twitter user @Ally65662226 wrote, “never in the foreverness of forever in the history before or after Christ, for all of remaining eternity in this life and all the life that proceeds it, in all galaxies and space continuums will this ever be me.

@cutey_brownin tweeted,

“Modern wives work Grimacing face imagine spending the same amount of time as your partner making money for the household just to come and serve him as if you don’t deserve to sit down too”.

@Sipholoveguru wrote,

“It’s not a force at all. And it doesn’t even take that much effort just to kneel when serving your “husband” unless u so fat u can’t even walk 5 meters without stopping. A woman who understands the value of her husband will not find it hard to do this.”

@Rea411,

“Why would I want to served like this? I’m even the head chef in my home so such cultural practices are complete and absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary. I’m marrying my feminist and I wouldn’t trade her for a submissive “yebo Baba” kind who bows at my presence.”

President Buhari will not Resign — Lai Mohammed

November 7, 2020

The federal government says President Muhammadu Buhari will not resign because he has the overwhelming mandate of Nigerians to preside over the affairs of the country until the expiration of his tenure in May 2023.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, stated this at a media briefing in Abuja,

Mr Mohammed was reacting to “diversionary statements by some commentators, especially political and religious leaders” calling for Mr Buhari’s resignation over purported spate of insecurity.

The minister conceded that the country was facing security challenges but they were being tackled headlong.

“There have been some red herrings in recent times, including those calling for the resignation of Mr President or the sack of the security chiefs.

“I just want to say that the government, which has provided and continues to provide the military and the security agencies with the wherewithal, believes in their ability to tackle insecurity.

“These challenges will be successfully tackled. I will however advice all commentators, especially political and religious leaders, to be very careful at this time not to aggravate the situation with incendiary comments.

“These are comments that cash in on our religious, ethnic and political fault lines to further divide us,” he said.

Mr Mohammed stressed that the kind of comments that have been attributed to some leaders, especially religious leaders, are incendiary and reckless.

“Leaders should be part of solutions to problems, rather than aggravating situations. To those asking Mr. President to resign,

“I wish to say this: Mr President will not resign. He has the overwhelming mandate of Nigerians to preside over the affairs of the country till the expiration of his tenure in May 2023,” he said.

“85% of Nigerian women won’t qualify if bride price should be paid for only virgins” – Daddy Freeze supports Reno Omokri

By

November 7, 2020

Controversial On-Air Personality, Daddy Freeze has opined that majority of Nigerian women will not qualify if bride price should be paid only for virgins.

Recall that, Nigerian lawyer and author, Reno Omokri in one his daily nuggets stated that bride price should only be paid for virgins.

The controversial critic and author who made the statement via Twitter, said the Bible contains scriptural evidence to back up his assertion.

Quoting a verse in Exodus, Omokri said biblically bride price should only be paid for women who are to be married as virgins.

Meanwhile, Daddy Freeze who is in full support of Reno’s school of thought shared his regret as he claims that majority of Nigerian women will not qualified if virginity is a criteria for bride price.

In his words,

“Reno Omokri is right o! And what’s worse, if a woman is given as a virgin and she is found out not to be, she MUST be stoned to death in front of her father’s house for being promiscuous in her fathers house.

If this should be implemented, 85% of our women won’t qualify for bride price.

And for those saying this is the Old Testament, can they please show us any instance in the New Testament where the bride price of a non virgin was paid??

◄ Deuteronomy 22 ►
New Living Translation
[13] “Suppose a man marries a woman, but after sleeping with her, he turns against her [14] and publicly accuses her of shameful conduct, saying, ‘When I married this woman, I discovered she was not a virgin.’

[15] Then the woman’s father and mother must bring the proof of her virginity to the elders as they hold court at the town gate. [16] Her father must say to them, ‘I gave my daughter to this man to be his wife, and now he has turned against her.

[17] He has accused her of shameful conduct, saying, “I discovered that your daughter was not a virgin.” But here is the proof of my daughter’s virginity.’ Then they must spread her bed sheet before the elders.

[18] The elders must then take the man and punish him. [19] They must also fine him 100 pieces of silver, which he must pay to the woman’s father because he publicly accused a virgin of Israel of shameful conduct. The woman will then remain the man’s wife, and he may never divorce her.

[20] “But suppose the man’s accusations are true, and he can show that she was not a virgin. [21] The woman must be taken to the door of her father’s home, and there the men of the town must stone her to death, for she has committed a disgraceful crime in Israel by being promiscuous while living in her parents’ home. In this way, you will purge this evil from among you.”

For those saying that this is the Old Testament please remember that this is the same portion of the Bible where tithes and offering come from. – ◄ Deuteronomy 22 ► [28] If a man happens to meet a virgin who is not pledged to be married and rapes her and they are discovered, [29] he shall pay her father fifty shekels c of silver. He must marry the young woman, for he has violated her. He can never divorce her as long as he lives.

In her words,

“I really wish people understood how these things work. It seems as though people want to attach my success to signing (sometimes strange) contracts for public approval and praise. Anyway sha, the game is the game.”

November 7, 2020

Youth representatives on the judicial panel of inquiry against police brutality in Lagos state have withdrawn their continued participation in the sitting following revelation that the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, blocked bank accounts of some #EndSARS advocates.

Recall that the CBN obtained a federal court order to freeze the bank accounts of 19 individuals and a public affairs company linked to the #EndSARS protests last month.

According to documents, CBN governor, Godwin Emefiele filed an ex-parte court application to freeze the accounts on October 20, 2020 which was granted by Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Abuja Federal High Court.

On Saturday morning, Bolatito Rachael Oduala (Rinu) and Temitope Majekodunmi, #EndSARS youth members of the Lagos judicial panel, in protest of CBN’s action, decided to boycott the sitting.

Rinu was amongst those affected by the freezing order, which was procured on behalf of CBN by former attorney-general Michael Aondoakaa.

Chairman of the judicial panel, retired Justice Doris Okuwobi, said the panel would have to suspend today’s sitting as it could not form a quorum in the absence of the youth member of the panel.

Nigerian youths have taken to social media to threaten a second wave of #EndSARS protests from Monday November 9, following report of passport seizure and frozen accounts.

A court order granting the Central Bank of Nigeria the right to freeze bank accounts of some frontline protesters and a public affairs company, has sparked outrage on social media and some youths have threatened a fresh protest in some parts of Lagos and Abuja.

The court ordered the head offices of Access Bank, Fidelity Bank, First Bank Nigeria, GTB, UBA, Zenith Bank to freeze the bank accounts of the individuals on the list for a period of 180 days, pending the outcome of the CBN’s investigation and inquiry.

Godwin Emefiele, Governor of the Apex bank, came under fire by Netizens as he was accused of hypocrisy and double-standard judgement. Aggrieved youths have promised to resume the protest on Monday at the CBN headquarters in Abuja and its Lagos office.

Tiwa Savage reveals why she doesn’t hide her age

Award winning vocalist, Tiwa Savage has revealed why she wears her age with pride and isn’t shy to mention it in public.

Tiwa Savage in an interview with The Dotty Show on Apple Music disclosed that she doesn’t hide her age because she is proud and confident about it and sees it as a way to motivate younger folks.

According to her, a lot of people hide their age and she wishes to be a source of inspiration to those who haven’t achieved anything outstanding in their twenties.

In her words,

“In December, I was so scared and I said, ‘God, if this is it, just give me a sign. And he gave me the opposite, he gave me opportunities. I had a record with Sam Smith and it’s like so many other things that are happening that never happened in my twenties.

God was saying to me, age has nothing to do with that. On every platform and interview, I have always mentioned my age because I feel a lot of people run away from it.

So, I always tell people, this is how old I am, in case you find out outside. I’m going to let you know first. And I’m proud of it because I’ve never felt more confident.

I don’t want a 20-year-old girl who is out there who hasn’t won a Grammy or who hasn’t been signed (to a record label) to feel like it is never going to happen. All you have to do is look at me.”

The way people turned out to show me love made me feel I am doing something right. I could not have wished for more than I got.”

Popular Nigerian actress, Angelina Eko Idoko, has caused a stir online after she revealed her reasons for not getting married.

Nollywood actress, Angelina Eko Idoko from Igede, Benue State has said that she has always been scared of marriage from childhood and the reason is not farfetched.

Angelina Eko disclosed in an interview with Inside Nollywood that she did not experience a good marriage growing up as her parents argued most of the time.

According to the Benue-State born thespian, how her father was violent on her mum made her want to be a single mum.

The Computer Science graduate in an interview with Inside Nollywood says,

”Before I became part of the entertainment industry, I have always been scared of marriage because my parents didn’t exactly have the best one.

My father was violent and they were always shouting on top of their voices. I grew up wanting to be a single Mum. Somehow, I think all men are the same, I still feel that way. Some people think that I must have been through a lot of heartbreaks, but not at all. I don’t allow men into my life. I’ve had only 2 relationships and I am currently single. I am tough oh. I don’t want to go through what my mum went through in the hands of a man.”

When asked her kind of man, Angelina Eko Idoko say, “I want someone that doesn’t shout when he’s angry. A man that is understanding. Someone that is Patient, Outgoing, Social, funny, intellectual, caring, modern & supportive. I am very good in bed and I have fine body. Have you heard of Benue girls? We have similar attributes with calabar girls.”

A Nigerian student who seems less bothered about the ongoing ASUU strike, has decided to get himself busy and make money.

The young man took to social media to happily show off his recently launched business following months of staying at home due to the industrial action embarked on by Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU.

ASUU has been on strike since March 2020, following its demand for the federal government to effect the agreement both parties reached in 2009, with regards to remuneration and other benefits.

@cityboyoflagos who felt the need to explore his entrepreneurial side, opened up a clothing and branding shop and shared the news with his followers on Twitter.

He uploaded photos of himself at work and made reference to the ongoing strike action.

“ASUU wants to close school for 3-5 years

Wahala for student wey no get business o.” the young man wrote.
