A Nigerian motivational speaker, Audu Mahmood is one of those men who believe that a woman was born so as to be the help of a man.
The speaker, who occasionally shares his opinion on Twiiter, took to the platform recently to opine that “men are generally rugged” and as such, it takes a woman to be in their life before they can become organized.
Audu says if a lady cannot tolerate a man with his ruggedness, disorganization and change his imperfection, then she is not worthy of being with a man.
In his own words which has mildly caused a stir on social media,
A Man is naturally rugged, he can never have an organized life until a Woman enters. His Imperfection can only become Perfect with the right Woman. A Woman was born to help a Man. Any Woman who cannot tolerate, organize and change the Imperfection of a Man, is not worthy of a Man
A young native doctor was filmed protesting after he was arrested for stepping out without wearing a face mask amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
In the video, the man is seen telling the members of the task force that he’s on his way to an important assignment. He was asked why he’s not wearing a face mask and he responded that he’s a native doctor and Coronavirus is not a threat to him.
He said he is not afraid of the virus and can treat patients if they are brought to him.
“This is my father’s land. This is my father’s land oh. Someone will be going on his way and you people will be subjecting him to abuse,” he protested as he was led to a canopy to sit.
“What you people are doing now has repercussions,” he warned the task force in Igbo.
“Look at my neck,” he said, pointing to the strings of beaded necklace he was wearing.
“The assignment I’m going on now is not something… What I’m going for is a very serious matter. I’m telling you the truth.”
“But why are you not wearing your face mask,” an officer asked.
And the native doctor responded: “I’m telling you that I’m a native doctor. I don’t have problem with diseases. I will treat that your Coronavirus. Bring me a patient.”
He continued after sitting: “You people are insulting your ancestors. You’re insulting the god of the Igbo land.”
He was offered hand sanitizer to apply on his hands but he rejected it, saying: “I don’t need that thing.”
He went on to speak about our ancestors and how they treated themselves with traditional knowledge.
He added: “If others are afraid of diseases, you will join them in being afraid of diseases.
“A White man will be scared of disease, you Africans, that are hardcore Igbolites and know that it is traditional, this is what we do, we are herbalists…”
The Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, has said that the traditional cure for Coronavirus has reached an advanced stage and will be made available to the public very soon.

Oba Ogunwusi said that he has gone far in working with the traditional medicine practitioners in the country to ensure a solution for Coronavirus.
He said though scientific solutions were being sought globally to end the pandemic, traditional medicine and solutions must also be considered and embraced as a way out of COVID-19.
The Ooni, therefore, urged the Federal Government to emulate Madagascar in its quest to use local herbs in combating Coronavirus, declaring that local herbs have the potency to heal victims of the virus.
In his remarks, Ogun State Governor Dapo Abiodun commended the monarch for the gesture and assured him that the fumigators he donated will be put to good use.

Fans called out a ‘thief’ and asked that she returned the money but hours ago, the actress took to her social media page to share her side of the story.
See below ;
I woke up to this and i thought it will be nice to give clarity and clear the air on it.
This incident has nothing to do with taking advantage of people or discouraging the need to give out especially using my platform.
This particular person indicated a 500 hundren thousand Naira giveaway and i felt there will be extra cost for bank charges and stamp duty, which i wasn’t going to bare the transfer charges for that, so i asked he bares it.
But in scenarios where people engage you as an influencer to drive giveaways from a business point of view, then business conversations need to happen.
