A 23-year-old woman, Iyabo Julius, has been arrested by men of the Ondo state police command for allegedly conniving with her lover, Adedayo Sunday, to rob and kill her ex-lover, Suleiman Azeez, so they could get married quickly.
The state Commissioner of Police, Bolaji Salami, who disclosed this to newsmen, said the incident happened in the 12/12 area of Ore in the Odigbo Local Government Area of the state.
“One Suleiman Azeez, 25, a commercial motorcyclist, left home for his daily bread with his Bajaj motorcycle but did not return home. His body was later found in a pool of blood around the 12/12 area Odigbo via Ore.
The case was subsequently transferred to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Akure. Upon discreet investigation, detectives trailed the suspects, one Adedayo Sunday, 25, and Jeremiah Monday, 20, both of Odigbo via Ore, who were arrested where they had gone to sell the stolen motorcycle.
On interrogation they confessed to the crime and said the former girlfriend of the deceased, one Iyabo Julius, 23, who is now Adebayo’s lover, asked them to rob her former boyfriend of his motorcycle and equally kill him so that she and her new lover could get married.” Salami said
Items recovered from the suspects include a Toyota Corolla car, one TVS motorcycle, and the sum of N231,000.
The police boss said Iyabo has been arrested and all three of them will be charged to court as soon as investigation is completed.
Nigerian netizens have taken to popular cross dresser, Jay Boogie‘s Instagram page to mock him for lying about being selected as a BBNaija Season 5 housemate and would be in the house soon.
It should be recalled that some days back, the Nigerian cross dresser took to his social media page to ask for volunteers who would manage his IG account after claiming that he would be part of the reality TV show’s fifth edition.
The fifth season of the show kicked off yesterday and not so surprisingly, Jay Boogie was found wanting among the newly announced housemates.
Nigerians have now stormed the comment section of his latest post on Instagram to mock him for lying about being selected as a BBNaija season 5 housemate.
Check out some of the comments below,
The Crossdresser had three days prior to the premiere of the show, revealed via his social media page that he was among the housemates who were called to be a part of the show.
The cross dresser while making the revelation, called for someone who can manage his social media accounts while he is in the Big Brother house.
He also solicited for people’s support as he begged Nigerians to vote for him. But Sunday’s show has apparently burst his bubble which didn’t really come as a surprise as it’s known that the selection of BBNaija housemates is one of the most discreet processes with no one having a clue of who a housemate is until they reveal them at the premiere of the season.

Then one of his followers, @badtguym replied him in an hostile manner saying the producer should keep mum.
“Will you keep kwayet?”
Unlike some other celebrities who would have thrown a tantrum at such follower, Don Jazzy, instead asked whether the follower is fine by saying,
“What’s the matter? Are u hungry? You can talk to me. I can help if u don’t mind. What’s wrong with you?”

Big brother Naija 2020 housemate, Olamilekan Agbeleshe referred to as Laycon in the show, is one of the few new housemates who has been getting quite the buzz on social media since he made a rather unique entrance during the show’s premiere.

However, the show started last night and she was not included as one of the housemates for the season.
Narrating the story, she said she registered online for the reality show on 20th May 2020, and also did the online audition afterwards.
On 17th July, she claimed that she received a mail congratulating her for being part of the housemates for the season.
However, on getting the notification, she discovered it was all a scam and she has appealed to BBNaija organisers to render help to her.
Former BBNaija reality star, Natacha Ibinabo Akide, better known as Tacha has bragged about been disqualified from the fourth edition of the show.
It should be recalled that the socialite was disqualified from BBNaija season 4 for assaulting her fellow housemate, Mercy. Tacha, in a new tweet says it’s better to be to be disqualified than evicted.
Tacha who just signed a multi-million naira deal with a leading phone brand, tweeted,

Her tweet comes after Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the host of the show advised the new housemates to stay away from troubles and fights else, they get disqualified.
A northerner, Kaisha is in the house, and this choice may have stirred up debates on social media!
BBNaija Kaisha is from Sokoto and a Twitter user who identifies himself as Mr. Saleem is of the opinion that no sensible northerner will allow his daughter participate in BBNaija. He wondered if Kaisha’s is a true Northerner because shyness and modesty are part of Hausa/Fulani culture.
“No sensible man from Arewa would ever allow his daughter to join #BBNaija. I wonder which part of the NORTH this “Aisha/Kaisha” comes from exactly. If she’s a Northerner, then definitely she’s not Hausa/Fulani, because shyness and modesty are part of our culture too.”, he tweeted.
“Whether Arewa Twitter support or drag “Aisha/Kaisha” off BBNaija , tribalism will kick her out of the race. Where she came from (North) is the problem.”
@WaseJamilu “Nobody will support Kaisha from Northern part of Nigeria.”
@GaiusHappie “I’m happy to see a Northern lady, I’m motivated.”
@Sallystorm12 “It’s like we having a good representative from the North. Just watching her”
@GaiusHappie “I’m happy to see a Northern lady, I’m motivated.”
@FarhanFarouk “She behaves like her dad is watching what she’s doing in Tv.”
@Yerima_Mercy “She really has a lot to face after leaving the house.Religious wahala.”
@meezyyyy “Don’t forget, the world has turned the other way round, many northerners don’t practice the culture anymore, but I think any well respected culture won’t condole this kind of act of BBN and nevertheless it’s a free but that doesn’t mean you won’t know right and wrong.”
@pebble_denz “I hope Arewa Twitter will let Kaisha survive this #BBNaija game in peace.”
@SageerA “I’m loving Kaisha, already reping us from the north side, Sokoto.(AREWA)
@SaniMaryama “It’s a show for all Nigerians though, Arewa should also be represented; Sokoto, Kano, Katsina. And why not Kaisha. Go girl.”
@KopNaija “Wow! A Sokoto girl in BBN house? I will be watching her closely.”
Photos of BBNaija Dorathy Bachor and her humongous bosoms that’s causing a stir online.
As viewers are keenly watching the lifestyle of the fresh new set of housemates who’ll be living in the Big Brother Naija house in the next 10 weeks and starting to discover who their favourites are, some fans are already getting familiar with curvaceous housemate, Dorathy.
Dorathy first caught the attention of virtually everyone who watched the premiere of the fifth season when her intro video was played on screen and even turned heads more when she came on stage to talk to Ebuka.
Dorathy has been dubbed as the housemate with “a bright future ahead of her” and while the commentary might seem as simple as it sounds, it has a whole lot to do with her body figure, literally.
Dorathy is definitely the one female housemate who’s endowed with ample bosoms and is quite confident of her endowment which she flaunts effortlessly.
She’s now picked the interest of so many viewers of the show and quite a number of them have already started declaring her as their favourite and pledging their support.
It’s in this vein that Dorathy’s IG account has quickly been fetched out and what was at just over a thousand followers on Sunday evening has now skyrocketed to tens of thousands of followers in just few hours after she was announced as an housemate.
Viewers are having a good time on her Instagram page as they skim through her page and engage themselves in photos of the lovely before her time in the Big Brother house.
It’s why we’ve brought some of her photos here on for your pleasure… check out more of them below,
The lovely is already one of the most watched out for housemate from the fifth season of the reality show and with the energy and confidence she carried, we can’t wait to see what she has in store for viewers of the show.
The Big Brother Naija season 4 kicked off on the 20th of July, 2020 and the housemates are already entertaining viewers.
In a video making the rounds on social media, one of the housemate can be heard saying his spec is a ‘guy’.
The housemate, who was introducing himself to his fellow housemate, seemingly goofed when trying to mention the gender as he was describing his specifications when it comes to relationship.
Other housemates reacted hysterically and he quickly realized his mistake and broke into laughter.
In no more than four hours after the premiere of the fifth season of the Big Brother Naija reality TV show, fans are already digging into the lives of the fresh housemates set to rock the BBN house for the next ten weeks.
During the launch show, one of the housemates, Praise, who was welcomed by the show’s host, Ebuka, revealed to him that he’s a single man, which has obviously had ladies on the lookout.
Well, his declaration might have made him subject to research from ladies who might have a thing or two for him and it’s in this vein that it’s been discovered that not only might he not be single, but he might also be a father.
As the banter and reactions to the new housemates are currently flooding social media, a Twitter user took to their platform to share screenshots of Praise, with his wife and a kid that’s supposedly his just moments after he declared to the show’s anchor, Ebuka, that he’s single.
See screenshots below,
There however might be no cause for alarm just yet… well, not until like has been in the past, his lover here in the outside world comes out to call him out and throws a tantrum or something… we have our fingers crossed!

The Nigerian Air Force has unveiled the identity of the secondary school classmate who knocked down Nigeria’s first female combat helicopter pilot, Tolulope Arotile.
Ibikunle Daramola, air force spokesman gave the name of the man as Nehemiah Adejoh and also disclosed that he and two other civilians were at the Nigerian Air Force base in Kaduna to visit the wife of a squadron leader.
The full statement reads;
“The Late Flying Officer Tolulope Arotile, a Squadron Pilot at the 405 Helicopter Combat Training Group (405 HCTG) Enugu, attached to the Air Component of Operation GAMA AIKI in Minna, having recently completed her Promotion Examinations, was in Kaduna awaiting deployment for her next assignment. During this period, she stayed with her sister, Mrs Damilola Adegboye, at Sabo Area in Kaduna, visiting the NAF Base whenever necessary.
“On 14 July 2020 at about 10.55am, Late Flying Officer Arotile received a phone call from her colleague, Flying Officer Perry Karimo, a fellow helicopter pilot from the 405 HCTG, who wanted to discuss arrangements for their return to Enugu, requesting that she comes to the Base so that they could work out the modalities. Subsequently, at about 10.58am, the Late Arotile placed a call through to Squadron Leader Diepiriye Batubo, the Group Operations Officer (GOO) of 405 HCTG, who was in Minna at the time, to clarify issues regarding her deployment. It must be highlighted that the call FROM Flying Officer Karimo as well as the one TO the Squadron Leader Batubo both took place before 11.00am, over 5 hours before the incident which led to her death.
“Flying Officer Arotile was later conveyed from Sabo to the NAF Base Kaduna by her sister, Mrs Adegboye, where the Deceased dropped her phone for charging at a house in the Instructor Pilots’ Quarters belonging to Squadron Leader Alfa Ekele. Her elder sister later dropped her off at the Base Mammy Market at about 4.00pm, where she proceeded to photocopy and laminate some documents.
“It was while she was returning from the Mammy Market at about 4.30pm that 3 of her former schoolmates at the Air Force Secondary School (now Air Force Comprehensive School) Kaduna; Mr Nehemiah Adejoh, Mr Igbekele Folorunsho and Mr Festus Gbayegun, drove past her in a Kia Sorento SUV, with Registration Number AZ 478 MKA.
“It is noteworthy that Messrs Adejoh, Folorunsho and Gbayegun are all civilians who live outside NAF Base Kaduna, but were on their way to visit one Mrs Chioma Ugwu, wife of Squadron Leader Chukwuemeka Ugwu, who lives at Ekagbo Quarters on the Base.
“Upon recognising their schoolmate, Arotile, after passing her, Mr Adejoh, who was driving, reversed the vehicle, ostensibly in an attempt to quickly meet up with the Deceased, who was walking in the opposite direction. In the process, the vehicle struck Flying Officer Arotile from the rear, knocking her down with significant force and causing her to hit her head on the pavement. The vehicle then ran over parts of her body as it veered off the road beyond the kerb and onto the pavement, causing her further injuries.
“Flying Officer Arotile was subsequently rushed to the 461 NAF Hospital Kaduna for treatment, while Mr Folorunsho (one of the occupants of the vehicle) who is also an Accident & Emergency Nurse at the St Gerard Catholic Hospital Kaduna, administered First Aid.
“Flying Officer Arotile was confirmed dead by the On-Call Doctor at the 461 NAF Hospital at about 4.45pm on 14 July 2020, as a result of the head injuries.
“The trio of Messrs Nehemiah Adejoh, Igbekele Folorunsho and Festus Gbayegun were immediately detained at the Air Provost Wing, 453 Base Services Group Kaduna as investigations began. They were subjected to Toxicology Tests at the 461 NAF Hospital but no traces of alcohol or psychotropic substances were found in their systems. It was however discovered that the driver of the vehicle, Mr Nehemiah Adejo, did not have a valid driver’s license.
“Having carefully considered the foregoing, the preliminary investigation concluded that: The death of Flying Officer Arotile was caused by blunt force trauma to the head and significant bleeding resulting from being struck by the vehicle.”
Daramola affirmed that the case would be transferred to the police for further investigation.

Here are exclusive photos of the BBNaija Lockdown House. The Big Brother Naija TV show is Live with Ebuka Obi Uchendu as the host!
This season’s theme tagged ‘Lockdown’ is already off to a rousing start with the show’s host, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, taking viewers on a tour of the BBNaija House.
A look inside the BBNaija season 5 house reveals a vibrant display of colours and an increased attention to creative detail in the design aesthetic.
Whilst the redesigned house features improved lounge, bedrooms, kitchen, garden and dining areas, a significant improvement to the house is a separate lounge area for the Head of House (HoH).
The swanky new HoH area includes a private lounge and bedroom that sits on an upper level above the common areas. Previous seasons of BBNaija only had a separate bedroom and bathroom for the HoH. The new living area for Head of House goes a step further in reinforcing the power and importance of the title.
Also new to the house is a beauty and grooming studio and a redesigned arena for the famous Friday night games.
