American rapper, Cardi B seems serious on becoming a Nigerian citizen, as she begs Nigerians to convince her husband, Offset to move with her.
Last week, the 27-year-old American rapper and mother of one announced in a tweet that she is filling for her Nigerian citizenship while reacting to the death of Qasem Soleimani, the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) Quds Force Unit who was killed in a United States airstrike ordered by President Donald Trump.
Now, she has taken to her Twitter page to appeal with her fans to help in convincing her husband, rapper Offset to also file for Nigerian citizenship with her.
Sharing a Photoshop image of Offset in native attire, Cardi B wrote: ‘Convince him to move with me.’
Nigerian relationship expert, Joro Olumofin has urged Nigerian women to start making room for a backup boyfriend he described as ‘contingency boyfriend’ to avoid heartbreak and depression.
According to Joro, a contigency boyfriend is “a guy who fits all your criteria of a husband material but is your platonic friend ( no sex involved). You talk to him often, you hang out with him and involve him in your daily activities, he’s aware of your boyfriend”.
The relationship expert who strongly advised women to have a contigency boyfriend they can marry 6 months after a breakup, stated that a lot of ladies without backup boyfriends are facing emotional hardships in their breakup and risk having high body counts till they find another boyfriend.
Joro wrote;
Ladies, 2020 is here. Do you have a Backup BF? Start recruiting backup BF today. With the level of heartbreak and depression amongst ladies who just got out of relationships, I believe it’s time for ladies to have a “CONTINGENCY BOYFRIEND” ; a backup boyfriend. Who is a contingency boyfriend? A contingency boyfriend is a guy who fits all your criteria of a husband material but is your platonic friend ( no sex involved).
You talk to him often, you hang out with him and involve him in your daily activities, he’s aware of your boyfriend. A lot of ladies are facing emotional hardships in their breakup and being rebounded by at least 5 Guys risking high body counts till they find another boyfriend.
I strongly suggest that every lady in a relationship should have a backup boyfriend who she can marry 6 months after her breakup in other to avoid Depression and the rebound / waiting syndrome. #ThinkLikeAMan 90% of men have Contingency Girlfriends. That’s why after a breakup men get married 3 months later.

The body of Favour Daley-Oladele, a final-year LASU student, who was allegedly murdered for money rituals by her boyfriend, Adeeko Owolabi, at a church in Ikoyi-Ile in Osun State, on December 8, will be buried in Lagos on Tuesday January 7th.
Her family took the decision to give her a befitting burial after her body was exhumed by the police for further investigations over the weekend.
Favour who was in a relationship with Owolabi, was lured to a church in Ikoyi-Ile in Osun state and murdered by Owolabi and his herbalist, Segun Williams, who disguised as a prophet. After killing her, they cut vital organs from her body which was used to prepare concoctions that Owolabi and his mother, Ruth, allegedly drank. They have all been arrested by the police and would be arraigned in court soon.
Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the Lagos State Police Command, have rearrested a suspect previously arrested for pickpocketing and stealing in 2017.
27-year-old Tunde Ajeigbe who embarked on a robbery mission with his accomplices Ekene and Bolenbe, was arrested after he jumped off a bike to snatch an android phone from a commercial bus passenger at 7UP area of the state.
The robbers were given a hot chase by residents of the community who also alerted the RRS operatives underneath Otedola bridge. Tunde was apprehended while two of his accomplices who abandoned their motorcycle escaped after also being given a hot chase by the police officers.
Confessing to the crime, the suspect recalled how he was arrested for a similar crime in 2017 by the police. He said in his confessional statement;
“I was arrested around Ojota after I snatched a lady’s phone and got caught by the police.
“I was remanded in the prison since then and was released on 19th of November 2019 but couldn’t go back to my wife and child. I went back to the house I rented before going to prison but couldn’t find my properties and my family again so I made for the street again.
“I went back to Oshodi under bridge to go join my friends again who gave me clothes to wear and bought me food before we went back into our usual job.
“Although, after spending some days in Mushin, some of my area brothers who knew I just came from prison helped me secure a motorcycle on hire purchase but that wasn’t enough for me as I wanted to make quick money to go see my mother in the village after leaving home for three years without seeing her.
“My aged mother would be worried after I left home without returning and no one knew my whereabouts as my wife never informed my family that I have been arrested and remanded in the prison. I, therefore, sought to steal again to raise some money but unfortunately I was caught.”
Lagos Commissioner of Police, Hakeem Odumosu who disclosed that the police has intensified its effort to arrest other members of the gang who escaped with the phone, ordered a transfer of the case to the Special Anti Robbery Squad for further investigations.

Meanwhile the actress has turned an ‘inspiration preacher’ as she advised young people on how best to spend the New Year.
According to the actress whose passport has been allegedly seized by the Dubai police due to her detention and court trial, there is the need to invest money in 2020 and not spend carelessly.
She wrote on Instagram ;
“As the new year begins, please be wise and strategic. Nothing is going to change because it’s a new year. Forget about the whole “new year new me” mantra, if you don’t change your ways, you’ll still get the same result.
Here are some nuggets to help you this year.
.
Stop comparing yourself with people and focus on your journey. It’s easy to stay in your corner and feel that the grass is greener at the other side, but the grass is greener where you water it. Focus on your journey, we all have our time. Don’t let people’s success pressurize you into looking for an easy way out.
.
Stop buying the latest phones, bags and material things when you lack investments. Many young people are caught up in material frivolities that they don’t even realize what matters. iPhone 11 is good, but how the heck do you not have any investment no matter how little bit you’re killing your self over buying an iPhone 11? Don’t try to look rich! Be rich and how do you get rich? By investing wisely!
Have friends with benefit!
Yes! Evaluate your friendships and kick out people you’re not also benefiting anything from. I’m not saying you should be a leech, but make friendships with the intentions to grow. Friends that only call you to drink and party? But never talk about how to grow mentally, and get better? Cut them off! You don’t need 1000 friends. One real friend is better than 20 casual friends.
Don’t start any relationship with “Let’s see as it goes…”
Define any relationship and know what you’re getting into, you can’t waste your time trying to see how it goes. It’s either they want you or not
Finally, put God in everything you do. Remember that everyone won’t like you, everyone won’t help you, everyone won value you, but focus and trust God.

2019 BBNaija housemates, Tacha and Sir Dee were recently spotted hanging out at the beach hours after Mercy and Mike were seen taking a dip in the pool.
Tacha shared clips of them at the beach and she asked her best friend, Sir Dee how he felt about her clothing and accessory line, Titans collection which will be out on the 18th of January before scolding him for not hyping her about it.
Sir Dee, however, joked about it and said he couldn’t wait for the package to arrive.
It is no news that BBNaija’s Tacha has sacked her manager, TeeBillz after three months of working together. But what people are curious about, is the real reasons behind the sack.
In a fresh interview with Sunday Scoop, the controversial BBNaija housemate, who signed a managerial deal with Billz Vizion, shortly after her disqualification from the reality show, opened up and spoke about her background, BBNaija house, her body odour issue, the alleged over used Benz and why she sacked her manager TeeBillz.
According to the reality star, Teebillz was too slow and did not match up to her expectations.
“When one signs up with a management, one would have expectations and targets. However, it’s one thing to have expectations and it’s another thing to have the expectations turn to reality.
Sadly, that didn’t happen, especially after the first month of being signed to a management. The drive I had and the drive they had didn’t match. I drew their attention to my concerns and also tried to manage the situation by being patient and hoping for a change. But, things got worse as time went on and after three months, I decided we should mutually disengage our business relationship for the sake of my brand.” She said.
Read full interview:
Background
I recall making books for my imaginary school and gathering kids together to teach them.
As a child, I wanted to become a teacher, so I could impart knowledge to people.
Education
For my elementary and secondary education, I attended Alpha Comprehensive Training College in Obio Akpor, Rivers State. I then proceeded to study English at the Ignatuis Ajuru University of Education, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
BBN
I was inspired to take part in Big Brother Naija (2019 edition) because of the platform (it offers). I have always wanted to be on the show; seeing how huge a platform it is and how people go in there with nothing and leave with opportunities. I wanted to make my brand global, so I decided to try it out.
Parents’ reaction
My parents fully supported and respected my decision.
Experience
I went through a lot; it was quite stressful and demanding– the crowd and anxiety before finally being selected.
I barely had favourites while in the house but I liked Sir Dee, Khafi, Isilomo and Omashola in the house and after the competition, I’ve got to meet and like a lot more ex-housemates.
Lessons
Some of the most important lessons I learnt while in the house were patience and tolerance. I learnt to coexist with a large number of people. Prior to the show, I had never lived, eaten or slept in a place with many other people. I never could tolerate sharing my privacy.
Attitude
I was not arrogant while in the house. I was just being myself but Nigerians are not people to be joked with. They turned my innocent bluntness to being saucy. I am just a naturally blunt person.
Disqualification
I don’t hold anyone responsible for my disqualification from the show; not Mercy or anyone else. I feel I was meant to be disqualified. That disqualification was fate and nobody’s fault.
Big Brother gave me a platform to showcase myself. I stayed in his house and ate his food. His house has rules and he’s never wrong. He did what he had to do.
I also don’t feel like Seyi betrayed me while we were in the house.
If I were to go for the competition again, I would, honestly, smile more, be more lively while minding my business and avoid fight traps.
I am doing well for myself and brand now. I am very visible and my family, the ‘titans’ make being visible easy for me.
Mercy
We are good and existing– that’s all there is to it.
Gratitude
I am a grateful person. I showed gratitude to everyone who supported me while in the house when I got out. I don’t know why the story about me being ungrateful made so much ‘buzz’. Maybe some people expected more; I don’t know.
However, I have learnt to compromise, keep my emotions in check and react less to critics.
Vlogging
The highlight of my vlogging career was the first time I had 100,000 views on YouTube and also when I got my YouTube page verified by Google for paid advertisements to be featured.
Sacrifice
Some of the biggest sacrifices I have made for my career include depriving myself of sleep and relinquishing my family time and privacy.
Advice
I would tell anyone aiming to go for BBN to be original. They should not change anything about themselves or act for the camera.
Qualities
I am hard working and I strive to succeed in whatever I set my mind to do.
Teebillz
When one signs up with a management, one would have expectations and targets. However, it’s one thing to have expectations and it’s another thing to have the expectations turn to reality.
Sadly, that didn’t happen, especially after the first month of being signed to a management. The drive I had and the drive they had didn’t match. I drew their attention to my concerns and also tried to manage the situation by being patient and hoping for a change. But, things got worse as time went on and after three months, I decided we should mutually disengage our business relationship for the sake of my brand.
(As regards being intimate with Teebillz), people are always saying things and it won’t stop. I don’t know what they mean by that. If their intimacy means that he’s a good manager, then by all means, he is. If not, I’m lost.
No leave, no transfer
It is a self-generated slogan. It was something I brought up to cheer myself on my own for surviving so many nominations (in the house). I was up (for disqualification) basically every week and I kept getting saved. I was confident at some point that I wasn’t going anywhere till the last day, hence the slogan.
Fame
Fame has robbed me of my privacy. My life now seems like it’s in the open and everyone keeps their eyes on my business round the clock.
Benz
(As regards rumours that fans didn’t truly buy me a benz) I am not aware of such rumours and I don’t even comment on rumours. As for Titans, they are my family, not my fans. I love them and I am always grateful for their continuous love.
Role models
I have no role model but I admire Kim Kardarshian and Beyonce.
Relationship
He has to be God-fearing and selfless.
Body
The favourite part of my body is my nose. I love how it’s shaped and I touch it like literally every minutes.
Davido
I decided to tattoo Davido’s name on my cleavage simply because I wanted to. I don’t regret a thing about it.
Surgery
I have never done cosmetic surgery. It is all natural– all Tacha.
Body odour
I don’t see any reason to react to lies.
(As regards Zlatan doing a freestyle about my alleged body odour), I have nothing to tell him. Many people did one or two things with my name last year for different reasons. I hope it paid off for them.
Adeeko Owolabi, the 22-year-old man who alongside one Prophet Segun Phillips, allegedly killed his girlfriend, Miss Favour Daley-Oladele, a final year Theatre Arts student of Lagos State University (LASU), has shared gory details of how he carried out the dastard act.
Adeeko and Phillips as well as his mother, Ruth, today January 4th, took the police to the shallow grave where Favour’s body was buried after she was killed on December 8th. When the body was exhumed, the head, the two breasts, neck and part of the two legs of late Favour had been removed by the suspects.
Speaking to newsmen, Adeeko said he lured the deceased to Ikoyi-Ile where the prophet’s church is located and lodged her in a hotel before killing her.
” After I lodged her in a guest house, I took her to a house which I claimed to be my uncle’s house, knowing fully well that the place was a ritualist’s den. I smashed a pestle on her head and she collapsed. The prophet thereafter used a knife and cutlass to dismember her body which was divided into three parts breasts, head and legs with other vital parts. We buried the remaining part of her body beside Prophet Philip’s Church called ‘Solution Salvation Chapel’, while some vital parts was given to my mother to eat for spiritual cleansing” he said
Also speaking to newsmen, the prophet who claimed to be the Senior clergyman at Solution Salvation Chapel, said the deceased was murdered to make money rituals for Owolabi. According to him, he used the church as a cover up
”I am not a prophet but a herbalist who engages in spiritual cleansing for whomsoever come to my place. I used the Solution Salvation Chapel as a cover up not to allow people know the true picture of who I am and what I do. Owolabi came to my place for money rituals and I told him that we need a complete human being for the rituals. And on December 8, he brought his girlfriend to my church and we killed her and as well dismembered her body part for money rituals” he said
On her part, Adeeko’s mother, said she was not aware that her son was involved in rituals.
Nollywood Actress Nnaji Charity who made headlines months ago with her faceoff with Dubai-based Nigerian businessman Mompha, has taken to her social media page to ask for prayers over a hard time she is currently facing.
