A drama which involves disqualified BBNaija housemate, Tacha’s boyfriend, Ladi, her boyfriend’s brother, Sampson and Didi said to be the person handling her social media accounts, is currently playing out on social media, and it’s all centered on the money which was sent in by fans of the reality show star and other celebrities.
Sharing a voicenote she got from a concerned fan who seems to be leader of a group, Tacha’s management were accused of lying about the money they received and making no impact in the life of the disqualified Big Brother Naija housemate who the money was meant for.
Sex therapist, Jaruma also told them to account for every money sent in from different groups, people and celebrities. According to her, this will ensure transparency.
She wrote,

He said Nkechi B S sent them only 20k in August, he said RealAngela O did not send a penny & no one else has sent any money to them.

Scotland has become the first country in the United Kingdom to make smacking children a criminal offence.
The ban on all physical punishment was backed by 84 votes to 29 by the Scottish Parliament on Thursday afternoon (Oct. 3). The bill was introduced by Scottish Greens MSP John Finnie.
He argued that, ‘Physical punishment has no place in 21st century‘.
The law change is aimed at giving children the same protection from assault as adults. But parents and carers are only allowed to use ‘reasonable‘ physical force in order to discipline children.
Reacting to the passage of the bill, Mr Finne said it sent a ‘strong message‘ that violence is never acceptable.
He said,
‘I am absolutely delighted that the Scottish Parliament has taken this historic and courageous step.
‘The leadership shown by MSPs will send a strong message that violence is never acceptable in any setting, and that our children deserve at least the same legal protections that adults enjoy.
‘Physical punishment has no place in 21st century Scotland. The international evidence tells us that it can have serious impacts on children, and that it is not effective.
‘As I have progressed this campaign over the last three years, it has become clear just how many people believed that striking a child was already outlawed.
‘I am extremely proud to have brought forward the legislation that will enhance children’s rights in Scotland and believe that today we have taken a huge step toward making Scotland the best country in the world for children to grow up in.’
Mr Finnie earlier addressed critics of the Bill, who suggested it could criminalise parents.
He said,
‘There is no evidence that a change to the law results in increased prosecutions in any of the more than 50 countries where some of the reforms have taken place.
‘In fact, this change in the law in Ireland prompted more parents to contact services to ask for help and support with alternative disciplining techniques.
‘Surely this is something which should be welcomed, and an encouraging consequence of a positive legal change.’
Nollywood’s infamous actor, Uche Maduagwu has taken to his social media page to shoot his shot at Billionaire Daughter, DJ Cuppy in a rather strange way.

In Uche’s words ;
“@cuppymusic I am ready to wash your PANT and dress everyday if you marry me… Talk is cheap, if you truly #love a girl, then you must be prepared to be her house boy, thats what sacrifice is all about in a #relationship.
As the biggest #ACTOR in #Nigeria that has ever gotten the attention of @chrissyteigen in #America, my fans in #Naija, #London, #Ghana and all over the world wants me to get married to #Cuppy, they believe we are #beautiful together, honestly, Cuppy is a very humble #girl, but what i admire so much about her is the fountain of her intelligence, #omg, this jewel is too intelligent, thats why i am ready to wash all her dirty PANT and #DRESS even after #wedding.
I prophecy to every #pretty girl praying to God for #MARRIAGE, as you type amen, by this time next year, God will answer your prayer speedily. </em

Daughter of Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, Kiki had a response for an Instagram user who’d criticized her for campaigning for her cousin, Big Brother Naija’s, Seyi Awolowo.
The beauty entrepreneur had taken to her IG page to ask her followers to vote for Seyi to emerge winner of the Big Brother Naija season 4 reality show.
A follower then replied,
“The rich voting for the rich.”
To which Kiki replied sarcastically,
“yeah voting for my cousin. I hope that’s ok by you.” She also added an eye roll emoji.
Earlier this year, she dropped a disclaimer, just in case, some feel the way she thinks they feel – according to her, she’s not as short as she looks in photos.
A reporter couldn’t hold back tears after she was attacked live on air in Barcelona at a march to observe the second anniversary of the Catalan independence referendum.
Laila Jiménez, from Spanish television network Telecinco, was reporting live when she was hit on the head by a Red Bull thrown by a protester on Tuesday evening, October 1 – she was then pushed and shouted at by angry Catalan separatists outside Jaume Balmes school, on the corner of the streets of Consejo de Ciento and Pau Claris.
Some demonstrators yelled at her to leave but others were kinder and tried to protect her, with one of them offering her paper towels to dry herself.
Miss Jiménez, who struggled to hold back tears, later changed locations and continued reporting.
She later described the incident as “humiliating”, according to Informativos Telecinco.
The treatment of the journalist spurred outrage online, with several Spanish politicians condemning it.
On Twitter, Gabriel Rufián, spokesman for the Republican Party of Catalonia, wrote,
“Doing this with a female worker with a microphone on the street is disgusting.”
Looks like the legal battle between the management of private institution, Madonna University and parents of the 6 students of the institution detained for 7 months in prison custody for criticizing the school on social media might be going on for a long time, as they’ve vowed not to apologize to the school authority over their wards’ action.
Speaking on behalf of the parents on Thursday October 3rd, Mr. Christopher Onyejekwe stated that they had an agreement with the university’s management to withdraw the lawsuit.
He said,
“Sequel to the meeting we had with Very Rev. Fr. Dr. Ralph Madu, the Deputy Vice Chancellor of Madonna University; the Registrar of Madonna University and the Rector of the Saviourite House of Formation, Fr. Dr. Oliver Udaya, on 24th day of September 2019 at Assumpta Cathedral, Owerri, we, the accused persons of a case before the Federal High Court Awka with suit No: FHC/FHC/C/03/2019 decided to give peace a chance.
“We also took into good view the concerns of many Catholic Bishops, especially Most Rev. Paulinus Ezeokafor of Awka Diocese and Most Rev. Hilary Okeke of Nnewi Diocese.
“We realised that giving peace a chance will be in the best interest of the image of the church, the image of Madonna and decided to settle the matter at a roundtable.”
However he said when the agreement was presented to the founder of the University, Rev. Father Edeh, he insisted that the parents must tender individual apologies to the school.
“We were optimistic that the voice of reason would prevail; but when the resolution of our meeting was presented to the founder of the university, Rev. Father Edeh, he asked us to tender individual apologies to the university.
“Why should we tender apologies to him for detaining our children in prison for seven months and ruining their career?” Onyejekwe added.
When Punch’s correspondent reached out to the Deputy Registrar of the university, Mr. Charles Njoku to comment on the parents’ decision, he revealed that he was sacked without any reason.
“I can’t react. They have just sacked me from the university without any reason given to me. I’m in my house” he said.
Asked whether his sacking had anything to do with the students’ matter, Njoku said, I don’t know. They didn’t give me any reason for my sack.”
There’s an ongoing drama in Tacha’s camp and it has to do with Money!!

She took to her Instagram page to reveal that Tacha’s managements have been shady over the money that was donated to her.
Sharing a voice note on her page, Jaruma wrote ;

The suspects- Adewuyi A. Adebayo,31; Osikoya K. Gboyega, 44 and Akintunde Ogunrinde, 47- were arrested on September 9, 2019 following intelligence about their activities. They were arrested at different locations in Lagos State and transferred to Makurdi, Benue State.
