Also along this thought is the joy that in the chaos and hatred that threatens to blot out every nature of good in man in the present century, it was not absent in the younger generation.
Love is the only message to be preached in a fast degenerating world.

A Nigerian lady has shared via the microblogging platform X why she thinks Nigerian men prefer to marry women from other countries.
According to her, Nigerian men go for women in other countries because they don’t monetize their love.
The lady believes that Nigerian ladies have turned relationships into a poverty alleviation and money-making scheme.
She also added that if Nigerian ladies do not desist from these acts, a large number of them would end up unmarried.
She wrote;
“Nigerian men are marrying from other countries cos they lose interest in Nigerian women when they encounter beautiful women from other countries who don’t monetize love. Already, Nigerian men are considered a catch by women in other countries so this is just the beginning. There would be an epidemic of unmarried women in Nigeria if women don’t stop this culture of commercializing love and prostitution disguised as dating. A 20-year-old girl already has needs she thinks a man should meet cos she thinks that’s the norm. This is only seen in Nigeria.”
While some supported the lady’s opinion, others took to her comment section to share why they think otherwise.
Below are some of the comments,
@iamkayjaywalter: In real life Nigerian men and women are getting married every Saturday. Just because three popular people married non-Nigerian women on social media you people are writing epistles every now and then!
@omagoodheart: Because Nigerian ladies are not marrying foreigners too?
@sylvia_obande: It’s the ‘only in Nigeria’ for me. Your epistle shows you clearly have not met girls from other countries when it comes to ‘ monetizing love’, Nigerian girls are still in training but keep generalizing ✌🏾
A Nigerian woman residing in Australia has shared her experience of disposing of her old car as scrap after being unable to find anyone willing to accept it.
The lady, known as @Omodele, revealed in a TikTok video that despite the vehicle being in excellent condition, no one showed interest in taking it off her hands.
In the viral video, she expressed her frustration, mentioning that if she had been closer to Nigeria, she would have gladly donated the car to someone in need.
However, living in Australia presented a different situation, as it seemed that everyone already had their own cars.
She emphasized that she had recently acquired a new vehicle and couldn’t possibly drive both, leading her to make the decision to get rid of the old car.
Regrettably, she resorted to scrapping it, receiving a meager sum of 200 Australian dollars, equivalent to approximately N186,000.
The video quickly gained traction online, drawing reactions from netizens who expressed their surprise and shared their thoughts on the matter.
In no time, the comment section was flooded with differing opinions.
As the video continues to circulate, it as sparked discussions among netizens and viewers alike about finding ways to repurpose or donate items rather than resorting to waste.
Judging by the slight naira appreciation in recent times, the controversial Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing has taken to her instagram page to question the unchanging inflated price of things in Nigeria.
For the most part of last year to this year, the naira has faced a serious devaluation with the dollar skyrocketing in exchange rates. The economy got tougher and the standard of living, higher that most Nigerians find it difficult to sustain themselves.
This month, the naira began a slow ascension to regaining its lost value, but to everyone’s chagrin, the price of items refused to drop.
Nkechi Blessing in more than a minute-long video asks why bloggers fail to update the public about the naira rise and why the prices of goods refused to return to normal prices before the saga.
She asserts that traders are part of the problems the country is currently facing due to their greed in profiting more than necessary. She went on a tirade of how things that ought not to be affected by the dollar was, and declared that a dollar will soon be equivalent to 200naira.
what do you think can be done for prices to go down?

The brand officially introduced the Infinix Note 40 Pro to the Nigerian market on Friday, March 22nd, and announced its remarkable partnership with the movie streaming platform, Showmax, a union forged by a mutual interest in cutting edge technology.
Despite the attendance of top Nollywood stars like Bisola Aiyeola, Kalu Ikeagwu, and TV series ‘Wura’ stars Scarlet Gomez and Ray Adeke, at the media launch which was held at Marriott Hotel, Ikeja, what stole the spotlight was none other than the newly launched Infinix Note 40 Pro.

Popular Nigerian actor and evangelist,Mike Bamiloye, has taken to social media to counsel married men on how to handle their wives who are not submissive.
The filmmaker and priest declared that a woman has disobeyed the Lord’s instruction to honour her husband and submit to him when she chooses to be arrogant, conceited, and unsubmissive to him.
Mike Bamiloye wrote a lengthy statement on his Instagram page saying that if their spouses exhibit the aforementioned characteristics, husbands should cling to God and never stop praying for them.
He stated that no matter how spiritual she may appear to others, a woman who lives in constant disobedience to God’s rules cannot possibly make it to paradise.
He wrote;
“When a woman chooses to be arrogant, proud, and unsubmissive to her husband, she has broken the commandment of the Lord, which demanded from her to respect her husband and be submissive to him, as the Head, just as the Church does to Christ.
When a woman chooses to punish a man by denying him access to her body, when the Bible says a wife should not do so in I Corinthians 7, she has broken the Commandment of the Lord and sinned against God.
When a woman is trying to be the head of the home when God says it is the spiritual role of the man, but trying to take over the control of the home, demanding that whatever she says must be done, turning the husband into a puppet; such woman has flagrantly discarded the law of the Most High God by disrespecting and dishonouring her husband.
Now, when a woman lives like this, be on the Lord’s side. Such is definitely working for the devil, no matter how dedicated she may be to the service of the Lord. Even some Pastors’ wives are in this category.
They believe their husbands are hooked and caged; they believe the man would never do anything to tarnish the name of the Lord or allow any scandal to their long-term ministry, SO HE DARE NOT CRY OUT, therefore, they maltreat the men at home and call the shot at home while the man calls the shot in the church. Some ministers of God are crying inside their hearts while they smile at their church congregations.
There is no way a woman who lives in perpetual disobedience to the laws of god can make heaven, however spiritual she may look before people. What is my last word to the men who are in the cage of contentious women, keep holding on to the Lord.
I have seen such women becoming completely transformed and highly submissive to the man and becoming helpful in his ministry. I have seen such woman becoming a royal gem in the hand of her husband, after a long time of struggles in a contentious marriage. God can do it. Let the woman become your prayer point. Keep loving her. Keep playing your own spiritual roles of a Godly man: love her, cherish and honour her, and keep praying for her. So that you don’t lose your soul. May the Lord heal such a marriage.”
Nigerian music superstar Burna Boy has explained his reasoning for not giving out stuff to people on social media.

A Nigerian lady has shared via the microblogging platform X, how a lady almost lost her life after her pastor asked her not to go to the hospital for a health issue.
Sharing in a tweet on the platform she revealed that the pastor told the lady she was pregnant but what she had was a tumor on her ovary.
She also added that it took a radiologist who attends the same church as the patient to notice that her protruding stomach wasn’t normal.
Her tweet read;
“Prayer is important, but please always visit the hospital too and check with an expert. This woman was told she was pregnant and made to suffer for two years when all she had was a condition called mutinous ovarian cystadenoma. A so-called man of God in her locality, stopped her from visiting the hospital, that she is pregnant and that anytime she goes to the hospital she might die. Thank God it was at the same church, God used a radiologist who worships also in the church to save her life. The radiologist took her to the hospital where he works and scanned her and saw what was wrong. Thank God she had a successful surgery and She’s recovering well now This was the massive cyst removed from her stomach.“
BlessingCEO has dropped another missile against her infamous enemy, VeryDarkMan via her instagram page where he was seen marketing his sex skills for money on a pornsite.
This came as a counter-attack to the rants VDM recently made against Nigeria’s popular transgender, Bobrisky.
VeryDarkMan made series of videos calling on the Nigerian government to arrest Bobrisky because she violated the anti-gay laws of the country. He demands that she be thrown into prison as she is a negative influence on the younger generation if left unpunished.
While he may be right, netizens in a bid to preach the ‘live and let’s live’ mantra, dug up his own filthy past which gives credibility to the pot-calling-kettle-black adage. VDM’s sex tapes and nude raunchy videos of him prostituting were leaked online of which BlessingCEO’s was one.
In this particular video, he was shown saying,
“I’m broke oo, all the people that were offering money for s3x, please come. My di.ck is hard. Even though your pvssy is not wet, just come. If I put it, it will wet. Which style do you want, do you want do.ggy style, do you want perch in the wall, do you want national anthem. Come I’m here.”
@lookinformercy comments
He is advocating for Bobrisky to be arrested cause of his bad influence. We should also advocate for vdm to be arrested. Mehn this is a nuisance to the society. Should other children emulate this too,??

She talks about how doctors in LUTH didn’t give a damn etc. So I ask the costs of drugs etc so we can start an intervention and send money, when I’m back in town, I will go straight to LUTH to see Today, she’s no more. She’s dead. The sister goes live again on IG in serous tears and you can hear the non-challant behavior of the doctors and staff in the background.

Discussing in the podcast Spill With Phyna on the episode of Worst mistake featuring Giddyfia, the reality TV star claimed that in this present age, if she is to choose between love and money, she will choose money.
In her words,
“In this age and time, if I am to choose between love and money, I’ll choose money. All the marriages and relationship now, is transactional; when you have money you can do anything you want”
She exclaimed that marriage and relationship in the present era is business oriented; and built on expectation that couples will benefit in return. She added that if an individual is financially buoyant, they can engage in any activities.

However, different reactions have trailed online as some agreed that transactional relationship is the modern day practice while others opined that money brings love in any relationship.
