Bobrisky slams the DG of NCAC for calling him a national disgrace

Bobrisky slams

Nigerian male cross-dresser, Bobrisky has replied Otunba Olusegun Runsewe, the Director-General of the National Council for Arts and Culture, who last week, said he is a National disgrace and will soon be dealt with by the government if caught on the street.

In his word, ”Bobrisky is a national disgrace. He started by selling and using bleaching creams, now, he has grown boobs, bums and hips. If a Bobrisky is doing well with his immoral lifestyle, how do you convince Nigerian youths to do the right thing? Bobrisky has the right, but not within the Nigerian environment.

There are others like him, but they live outside the country. If we don’t address Bobrisky as early as possible, he will form a team that will spread like wildfire. This will result in a lot of suicide cases, because the typical Nigerian parent would not want to see their child become a Bobrisky” Runsewe said in an interview

Well, Bobrisky appears not to be taking Runsewe’s comment lying low as he has fired back at him. In a post shared on Instagram, Bobrisky stated that he is ‘waiting’ for Runsewe.

”I heard someone in the Govt talked about me few days ago. Pls tell him am waiting for him. Is then he will know I roll with his boss in the government and not someone in his level. So he left other serious issue in Nigeria to address Bobrisky. But I am popular sha”.

He further said that Khafi seems to have moved on from being upset over Gedoni’s eviction as the head of house role gave her responsibility and a new sense of purpose.

“The relationship with Mercy has been one of the most challenging things in the house for sure.”

#BBNaija: ‘I personally spent 1.5m on voting and it still didn’t count – Jackye’s boyfriend, Lami cries out (Videos)

Lami, the boyfriend of recently evicted-Big Brother Naija housemate, Jackye has revealed he personally spent 1.5million naira on votes for his girl but the ‘votes didn’t count’.

Lami took to social media to share videos and receipts of how the money was spent on voting, Lami requested the organisers to allow his tech firm carry out an audit of Delloite servers and questioned how much money other housemates spend on voting to get their numbers up.

Read his post below ;

Even State and National election votes don’t count in naija… I personally spent 1.5m in my humble capacity and still na voice mail the money enter but na esha bread for where God dey and besides my girl is worth way more than that. Makes me wonder how much is been sincerely spent in others camp weekly that shoots their % so high then they must have a chairman in their family and if not then how?

Watched big brother so much I barely had time to cater to myself, my business distracted like say na National Assembly election Jackye dey contest for on top 30m wey my girl wanna win, chaii I don suffer.

Anyway na wetin the organizers want and Deloitte like dem go show and it was more like they listen to the noise of Twitter now rather than allowing real votes count cos I got more verifiable receipts of votes and if they would allow my little David tech team to come audit their giant Goliath severs we may be able to pull a super story headline in another big brother social media handler sarcastic manner.

Overall to God be the glory because 60m no fit buy the fame and opportunities she has now and that alone we are grateful for even though it comes along with a lot of hate amidst the great love.

BBNaija: Khafi replaces Gedoni with a ‘teddy bear’

Khafi replaces

It appears Big Brother Naija housemate Khafi has found another companion since the eviction of her love interest, Gedoni.

Gedoni’s journey in the Big Brother house ended on Sunday, August 25, for having one of the lowest number of votes.

Since then, the tears keep flowing as Khafi seems not to have gotten over the pains of seeing the fashion designer leave the house.

Khafi had earlier told Cindy that she feels lonely that her stress reliever and boo was evicted from the ‘pepper dem’ house.

Recall that Khafi and Gedoni over time stirred reactions on social media, as a result of their frequent engagement in sex.

Just when we thought the Head of House feat was a consolation for the police officer, Khafi was spotted brooding on Tuesday afternoon.

As Khafi lay on the bed she shared with Gedoni, a teddybear-like object wearing the fashion designer’s cap was seen lying close to her.

Perhaps the object is another representation of her lover.

Car crash victim dies

Ignazio ‘Cito’ Okamoto from Brescia, was involved in a collision on March 19, 1988, and suffered a brain haemorrhage at the age of 22. His friend was killed in the crash but he survived the incident. Ignazio spent two years in a clinic, but his parents decided to take him home to try to bring him back to health.

He has now died at the age of 54 after suffering cardiac arrest. Ignazio’s mother Marina told La Stampa: ‘for 31 years we lived cut off from the world. The doctors had told us that he wouldn’t wake up but we cared for him every day, hoping that maybe…’

His father Hector, a 77-year old Mexican with Japanese roots, added: ‘now life has changed. I woke up this morning at 5am and I didn’t know what to do. I went to the garden to water the flowers. The last few nights I slept in Ignazio’s room, even though he is gone, to be near him.’

He said he had left his job in 1990 to look after his son, with Marina working to support the family. Mr Okomoto said he had never thought about euthanasia for his Ignazio.

Barber shares

A Twitter user with the handle @Cheyih_Viktah took to the platform to share the shocking response he got from a lady after shooting his shot.

The young lady who turned down his proposal stated that he doesn’t have the resource to take care of a lady like her.

She wrote to him,

Hi Oluwaseyi, So sad I couldn’t give you my response over the phone when you called, i knew it would actually come to this when you’ll ask me out.

It’s a good thing that you expressed your feeling but the bad thing here is that I can’t date you, firstly, I don’t date corpers, they are overly dependent on that stipend they collect, I know I’m still in school but i still cant. Secondly, you’re just another guy out there struggling, you’re just a barber, struggling to make ends meet, you don’t have the resources to take care of a lady like me, you have no money and you have no job yet.

I appreciate the fact that you’re intelligent and brilliant at what you do and you’ve got a lot of plans but all these don’t bring food to the table and all that can’t take care of me. I’m very sorry, we can only be friends and that’s the only thing i cana offer. I hope you find your type. Thank you.

Festus Keyamo reacts

However, in an interview with The Cable, Keyamo said himself and Ikogho were both born in Ughelli, Delta state, and grew up as friends. According to him, the picture was taken in 2011 at the burial of the father of one of the two other men who appeared in the picture.

The senior advocate said the suspect is from “a decent home” and hoped the FBI got their facts right.

“He is my childhood friend. We were born in the same town (Ughelli). We attended same church from birth. His parents and mine, best of friends, till tomorrow. His siblings and mine too. Only left for the US about 10-12 years ago. Can’t deny him. It’s a family relationship from birth. He’s from a decent family. Hope they got their facts right. The wife has sent the charge to me.

The authorities clearly stated that he may not have known of the fraudulent schemes but he helped one or two of them to transfer funds illegally for a fee. And he didn’t declare excess money at the airport. Wish him well.

“In fact that picture is even at the burial of the father of the guy on the far right about 8 years ago. The guy is in the same childhood group like all of us. Likewise the guy on the far left, a lawyer, who died at the National Hospital here in Abuja about 5 years ago” Keyamo said

TBoss confirms she was pregnant and has welcomed her baby

Reality TV star, TBoss, has confirmed she was pregnant and has welcomed her first child.

After months of speculation, Tboss decided to confirm the talks via a post shared on her Instagram page this morning.

The 35-year-old said she had to keep her pregnancy away from social media because she was scared of the negativity of some users.

TBoss wrote;

What is it about our Generation that’s Always so eager to post up our private lives on Social Media?

We get Good news- SM, Not so good news- SM, Someone offends us, someone owes us money, breakups, new home, new car, new shoes, fake designer shoes, borrowed stuff- There’s Absolutely No Mystery anymore. You wanna know about a person? Just look up their SM pages & you’d get a pretty close picture of whom you’re dealing with.
I agree I’m not exactly social media compliant but I’m also guilty of sometimes putting more than I ought to have out there thereby subjecting myself to being misinterpreted, misquoted, misunderstood & highly misjudged.

And that’s why it was extremely difficult for me to keep my pregnancy all to myself.
I mean it was without a doubt The Best news I have ever had & God knows I wanted to shout it out so as to be heard to the ends of the earth BUT I had to …
Not because I was ashamed or nothing of the sort. Hey, I’m a Grown woman let’s be Real.

I was Afraid. I was afraid of exposing My best news to the negativity of little & sad minded people of which unfortunately happen to be a lot… I wanted to enjoy this journey, savor every little moment, understand what was happening to me, my body, keep my sanity for my good & the good of my unborn child.
Pregnancy is indeed a roller coaster ride and as Ecstatic as I was, it really hit me.

My friends all knew- if you didn’t oh well- maybe that’s your cue. I went shopping & out a lot & took lots of photos with my beautiful fans – Selfies Only of course & never felt the need to cover up or hide anything- And why should I? Do you know the struggle a lot of women go through to get what I have? A Free Gift from God! And you think at 35 I ought to feel some type of way because someone has an unsolicited opinion about me? Ha Ha Ha… Silence is NOT denial.

My silence was just that: Silence- until I was ready to speak about it.
