My relationship with Teddy A started as a game – BamBam says

Last Weekend, reality TV Stars and real life lovers, Teddy A and BamBam got engaged and the news dominated social media as friends and fans celebrated the couple.

BamBam has now spoken about her engagement to Teddy A and how real it is in a new interview she granted

She said ;

“It (engagement) is real. Just like every other thing, you would see it happen. I can’t start giving (wedding) dates” she told Saturday Beats.

“If you cannot make a best friend out of your intending partner, where you know their limits and their boundaries, then you are messed up really. I am blessed that Teddy is mature, not careless, and as public figures, we know how to manage situations that seem beyond our control” she added.

BamBam also revealed that her relationship with Teddy A began as a game before fate happened.

“Fate happened to us. I can’t say it was pre-planned. He had a serious relationship that was one-year-old before I met him. He had a girlfriend he was serious with, so we did not plan to fall in love with each other. We did not know we would last this long.

“We had a very rare connection in the house. We both knew it but we kept telling ourselves ‘it’s just for the game’ but it was no game. So, I can’t predict what fate has designed. So, people should not go in there hoping to be a Teddy A and BamBam. I went to the house for a different purpose, but ended up getting Teddy as a bonus” .

Court grants DSS permission to detain Omoyele Sowore for 45 days

A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has granted the Department of State Services, permission to detain the convener of RevolutionNow, Omoyele Sowore, for 45 days.

Justice Taiwo Taiwo, ruling on an ex parte application by the State Security Service, whose operatives arrested Sowore last Saturday, held that the detention order would be renewable after the expiration of first 45 days on September 21.

The Intelligence Agency had on Tuesday applied for permission to keep the Sahara Reporters Publisher for 90 days to investigate him over his call for revolution ahead of the RevolutionNow protests which held in some parts of the country on Monday July 5. The security agency anchored its application on the provision of section 27(1) of the Terrorism (Prevention) Amendment Act.

Ruling on ex parte application, a one-sided request by the SSS without counter-argument by Sowore’s legal team, Justice Taiwo, said he had to grant the application, “only to the extent” of allowing the security agency to keep the respondent in custody for only 45 days for the applicant to conclude its investigation.

He said, although the hearing of the application was one-sided as provided by 27(1) of the Terrorism (Prevention) Amendment Act, the use of the word, “may”, in the provision “is directory” and not “discretionary”.

He said he would therefore, be failing in his duty not to grant the request for a detention order. He also said should the applicant require more time to conclude its investigation after the expiration of the first 45 days, it had the liberty to apply for its renewal.

If someone hasn’t done anything to you and all you do is criticize them, then look into yourself – Zahra Buhari says

Zahra Buhari-Indimi, daughter of President Buhari, has addressed unjust hatred and dislike in humans via a post on her social media page.

In her post, Zahra revealed that she has also faced unjust hatred before and revealed how she was able to handle it.

Her post reads ;

Today my post is pretty random just like the previous posts. I just want to quickly address some sad issues. I hear people being shamed, isolated, hated, treated so wrongly mainly for no reason and I’ve been brain storming what those reasons could be. And the only thing I could come up with was JEALOUSY.

You see if someone hasn’t done anything to you and all you do is criticise them, then look into yourself and critically analyse the situation and see you is in the wrong. We have other instances of compatibility.. that’s something else. When you and the person can’t flow at all. There’s nothing wrong with that, you don’t have to be mean or rude to the person. Just say your hellos if you can and let it be.

Ok when your being hated on or being bullied, believe it or not it’s happened to me several times when people thought they could push me around and do what they wanted to me.. sure, you can think you can treat me the way you wish and go free but don’t forget I have the power as to how I react or respond. You(bully or hater) will not have the power to treat me the way you and also have the power to control how I respond or react. You can only choose one.

There’s no doubt that it could hurt before you get used to it.. but I have secrets and ways for you to cope with these kinds of people. But share with me what you would do if you were bullied or hated on.
