Reno Omokri, has again taken to his Twitter page to dish out to his followers his usual #RenosNuggets and this time, he talked about the acts of giving and it’s consequences.
According to Reno, men have no obligation to giving money to his girlfriend. He also stated that giving to a girl you sleep with makes her more appropriately a prostitute, not a ‘friend’
“It is a lie that no one has become poor by giving. Giving can make you rich, depending on who you give to. For instance, you can never be poor if you give to God, your parents and the poor. However, there are very many men who became poor by giving to girlfriends. A man has no obligation to look after his girlfriend. Giving money to a girl you sleep with makes her more appropriately a prostitute, not a ‘friend’ #RenosNuggets”
American Singer, R. Kelly was taken into custody after arriving Friday night at a Chicago police precinct, hours after authorities announced multiple charges of aggravated sexual abuse involving four victims, including at least three between the ages of 13 and 17.
The 52-year-old singer, whose real name is Robert Kelly, was driven to the station in a dark colored van with heavily tinted rear windows.
The vehicle pulled up outside the precinct about 8:15 p.m. and a security detail for Kelly kept reporters and cameramen at arms’ length as he exited the side door.
Police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi tweeted a short time later that he was under arrest.
Kelly did not respond to questions from reporters as he walked inside the building. He was expected to be held overnight before an appearance Saturday in bond court.
The tape he uncovered “leaves no question” that Kelly is guilty of multiple illegal sexual acts against a 14-year-old girl. Dates to approx 1999, he says.
Barack Obama has given his opinion concerning toxic masculinity by stating that a man doesn’t need to have 8 women twerking around him before he can be seen as a man.
Obama made this known at a recent panel with NBA champion Steph Curry.
When asked to define who a man is in relation to the LGBT community, the former US president said:
“Being a man, is first and foremost being a good human. And that means being responsible, being reliable, working hard, being kind, being respectful, being compassionate.”
Obama didn’t hold back his opinion when the open discussion turned towards toxic masculinity.
“The notion that somehow, defining yourself as a man is dependent on are you able to put someone down instead of lifting them up, are you able to dominate as opposed to support. That is an old view. And a view that, thankfully, I see young people rejecting.”
He went on to state that male confidence is not by having 8 women twerking around you.
“If you are very confident, about your sexuality, you don’t have to have eight women around you twerking. I mean, why are you? You seem stressed you gotta be acting that way. ‘Cause I’ve got one woman who I’m very happy with. Right? So…and she’s a strong woman.”
A man has taken to social media to reveal what a Nigerian lady allegedly did to him after forcefully romancing her.

Google Currency is currently showing that one dollar is going for N184, but this is just a glitch in Google’s software or Algorithm.
The Central Bank of Nigeria sold the greenback to bureau de change (BDC) operators at N357 per dollar on Friday.
Musa Ibrahim, a BDC operator, who spoke to TheCable from Lagos Island, said he bought $20,000 from the CBN at 357 per dollar.
“We collected from CBN today at the rate of N357, and each BDC operator is entitled to $20, 000,” he said.
Two members of staff at Google, who spoke off the record, confirmed to TheCable that this was just a bug, that is currently being fixed by the search giant.
According to Bloomberg currency rate, the dollar is currently trading at N361.8, with the local currency gaining N1.75 against the greenback.
Nigeria goes to the poll in less than 12 hours after this glitch, driving speculations and jokes on social media on how the incumbent may want to turn the economy around overnight.
While some fear that their stacked dollars may have lost tremendous value, others are celebrating a rise in the value of the naira, but many are aware this is just a temporary glitch.
Whatever the case is, the dollar is still trading at 358 to 360 at the foreign exchange market.

The wife of the President, Aisha Muhammadu Buhari, has sparked up an Uproar online for Nigerians to choose between poverty and wealth in tomorrow’s presidential election.
Aisha Buhari, while presenting empowerment packs to 1,250 women and youths from the six area councils of the Federal Capital Territory in Abuja, on Thursday asked Nigerians to “decide whether the poor should become poorer and the rich richer or a society where the gap begins to be reduced.”
In a statement by her media adviser Adebisi, Olumide Ajayi, quoted Mrs. Buhari, as saying that “poverty is one of the indices that encourage people to embrace vices like terrorism, kidnapping, and begging.
Aisha statement has since been met with criticisms and diverse reaction from Nigerians online.
While some Nigerians on social media identified Buhari, APC as ’Poverty’, others identified Atiku as ‘Wealth’
Here are some reactions:
@Olarounye “You are right Madam, I chose wealth, the kind poverty your husband brought upon us is so excruciating, Atiku is Wealth.”
@Chizybae “This woman already knew that buhari has led us to world poverty Capital, and comes to tell us to choose wealth or poverty, probably everyone wants wealth, thus indirectly telling Nigerians to vote Atiku and kick poverty Buhari out! She is a genius.”
@Ray_vicsson “What I love about Aisha Buhari is that she always talk in parables. She knows fully well that her husband Buhari represents the poverty she’s talking about. Nigerian people has been living in abject poverty since her husband took the mantle of leadership. So vote wisely.”
@ForaNewNigeria1 “This woman has given Nigerians enough clues. She has done her own campaigns and voting. We’ll have ourselves to blame if we don’t heed her warnings.The choice is yours to make.”
@Sundayodc2018 “If you know you know, Aisha has finally make it clear to Nigerians. Vote for Atiku.”
@Ezediniliu “We have made our choice, Atiku. We are tired of poverty, job losses, killings, etc.”
@Godsongoodnews1 “Something I love about this woman, she always comes up with truth .Nigerians know where they’re now and they know where they’re wish to be tomorrow. Say No to Buhari and his poverty APC, Vote Atiku for wealth.”
@EmanuelUchenna “I so much like this woman, I wish she is the one contesting for this election. Poverty is the next name of APC.”
@Bless_jerryp “Aisha always win my heart. You have proven once again that you are not made just for the “kitchen and the other room”
@Juliusdennis7 “Madam, I now know the difference between poverty and wealth.
Buhari is poverty and I reject it. Poverty must go.”
@mydins2014 “Buhari and Atiku, Poverty and wealth: Let those with wisdom understand Mama Aisha.”
@Idokojan “With this, first lady have just taken pity on hungry and impoverished Nigerians. And she has sincerely told us to go vote Atiku. I respect you ma! You have indirectly told us this long ago by being reluctant in campaigning for Buhari. We’ll surely vote Atiku ma.”

Osmond Eweka, a member of the Benin royal family who was in 2018 arrested with his co-defendant, Kamel McKay for scamming 250 job seekers and raking in thousands of dollars from their unsuspecting victims has been served with a no-jail sentence.
The 31-year-old appeared at the Manhattan Supreme Court where he was given a no-jail sentence, known in legal parlance as a conditional discharge.
According to NY Post, he previously copped to two counts of scheme to defraud and paid $50,000 in restitution as part of the sweetheart plea deal struck in December with the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
“Mr. Eweka chose to do what was best for his family and his newborn son,” said his lawyer, Thomas Kenniff. “He is pleased with the court’s decision to sentence him without jail time and now looks forward to resuming a law-abiding life.”
His co-defendant, Kamel McKay, pleaded guilty to the same charges in exchange for one year in jail.
The defendants allegedly targeted job seekers on indeed.com, promising to find them work, including as front-desk receptionists and hotel housekeepers, in exchange for a fee of between $300 and $700, court records show.
After interviewing the victims and collecting their fee, the alleged fraudsters would send them to work sites, where they were turned away by employers who weren’t expecting them. The confused job seekers were then unable to get in touch with Eweka, McKay or their bogus employment agencies.
The duo pocketed $54,000 in fees and didn’t provide a single job, according to prosecutors.
Eweka, who married an attorney in 2016 in an elaborate wedding ceremony in Nigeria, allegedly operated the bogus employment agency scam out of an Empire State Building office under the alias Sean Jackson.

She then left the US by private jet on Wednesday night from Teterboro, New Jersey, on a plane that costs $125,000 per trip. Between lavish gifts from friends, to the cost of her Royal Protection security and extravagant dinners, the royal’s week in the city amounted to $430,896.98.
A senior chief pilot has been filmed sleeping in the cockpit of his Boeing 747 – the pilot, who has nearly 20 years of flight experience, was captured in the act by his co-pilot.
The video shows the chief officer with his eyes closed and his head down as he sits in the main seat of the cockpit.
He has not been named but he is said to be the airline’s most senior Boeing 747 pilot, and mainly flies the Tokyo, Okinawa, Seoul and Hong Kong routes.
The chief pilot is also an instructor in charge of simulations at the China Airlines Flight Training Center. The video surfaced just days after China Airlines pilots ended a seven-day strike over issues including pilot fatigue and long working hours.
Taiwan’s flag carrier, which has its headquarters in Taoyuan International Airport, has responded to the incident saying the clip was filmed before the most recent strikes took place.
Meanwhile, the unnamed pilot has received “adequate punishment” for ignoring flight safety procedures, a statement from China Airlines said.
China Airlines has also suggested the co-pilot who filmed and released the video may also be punished for choosing to record the clip instead of waking his senior officer up.
American blog, TMZ is reporting that some Empire cast members want Jussie Smollett fired, as they feel betrayed by him, and also damaged the show’s image.
According to the gossip website, many of the “Empire” actors are “f**king furious” and feel if FOX honchos don’t fire Jussie, he should quit on his own because he doesn’t deserve a spot on the hit show.
The feelings of animosity come from the fact everyone on set had Jussie’s back after the alleged attack, but in light of the new evidence police have laid out many of them feel hurt and embarrassed.
We’re told almost everyone on set is worried about how Smollett’s damaged the show’s reputation and could continue to do so if he remains part of the cast.
However, there are still some cast and crew members who believe Jussie’s telling the truth because they can’t fathom him pulling off a hoax like this. In truth, the turn of events is not imaginable, but the evidence are strong.
TMZ also reported that Jussie Smollett changed his number because certain pissed off cast members were blowing up his phone. He’s only given his new number to the people still in his corner.
