The protesters gathered in unity, demanding immediate action from the state government to address the issue and ensure the prompt disbursement of their salaries.

The absence of a response from the government has only intensified the frustration and created discontent among the protesting workers.
The situation has drawn attention to the pressing need for swift resolution, as the unpaid salaries not only impact the livelihoods of the civil servants, but the welfare of their families.

When they had me they were like ‘Let’s go and see your grandma’ Then they dropped me with her and ran away because they were too young and didn’t know what to do with me. I don’t think my mother was up to 20 years old when she had me and my dad was probably in his early 20’s. They were childhood sweethearts, then they left each other and he went back to Ghana.”

In his words,
“I was very sick at a time, so I had just come out of having a stroke on half of my face. It had never happened before but it didn’t stop or deter me from working. My face was droopy, I was left-handed, so on the right side. Every time I had to drink water, it would pour out, one eye was wide open, I couldn’t hear; and I couldn’t breathe. All my hairstyles covered that side so you can never tell.
And then, getting out of that, another attack came from nowhere. On this one, I couldn’t walk; my right leg was dysfunctional, and I lost half of my hair. My friend asked me to make a cameo in her movie during that period and I didn’t like pity so I couldn’t tell her that I was sick and unable to perform well.”

According to Timini, his accomplishments in Nollywood over the past 15 years should be sufficient to make him the most successful actor in Africa.
He said;
“I have been acting for 15 years consistently. I’ve never had a time off or fall off for 15 years consistently. I believe that I genuinely opened up the way for a lot of new school young actors. I also believe that I opened up the leading male young actor category.
And I said that very humbly because when I joined Nollywood, there were no lead roles for young men. You either had to be an old man or a lady. All the young men that were acting were playing minor roles.
Nobody was actively writing lead roles for young men. If you put everything that I’ve accomplished together, I believe that I am the biggest actor in Africa.”

You’ve done more for me behind them bars more than anybody on these streets. You’re the definition of making it happen. The most selfless person I know.

Ossai Ovie Success, a media of Delta State Governor, took to his Facebook page to share his opinion after the gospel singer and his fiancée posted love up photos of themselves from Marie’s graduation from Law School in the United Kingdom.
Sharing his opinion, Ossai cited a biblical passage to assert that the gospel singer’s body gesture with his fiancée was against Christianity; he was not ought to have any body connection with her as she was not is wife yet.
He wrote,
Dear Moses Bliss , this is against Christianity.
As a christian, you are not supposed to be in this kind of position with a woman that is not your wife yet .
You just committed fornic*tion by using your body to touch her body .
You should know better being a Gospel singer.
Don’t tell me this is happening because you guys are engaged .
Being engaged doesn’t makes you guys husband and wife .
It’s a s*n to touch a woman before marriage, like holding hands and hugging.
In the Holy bible , 1 Corinthians 7:1 It is writing “that It is good for a man not to touch a woman”
So this you have done , you need to ask God for forgiveness and don’t repeat this before paying her bride price .
Ossai Ovie Success
He concluded that Moses Bliss should seek forgiveness from God because he committed fornication.

Nigerian media personality Toke Makinwa has taken to social media to share some insights about love that she wishes she had understood sooner in life.
Toke Makinwa posted pictures and ten love lessons she wished she had learned on her Instagram page.
These teachings include, but are not limited to, loving oneself, never compromising one’s value, never pleading for love, and never giving up.
She wrote:
“On love day, here are 10 things alongside 10 slides I wish I learned earlier.. 10/10
1. Out of everything you gotta beg for in this life, never let love be one of them.
2. If you have to constantly repeat yourself, it’s either they are committed to not hearing you or they don’t care enough. Stop telling people what they already know, that long paragraph won’t change the obvious, let them go.
3. While in life negotiations are inevitable, keep them centered around (money, where you live, job positions, vacations etc), never let your self worth be one of them.
4. You are your one true love, never forget that 🩶
5. Nothing will bring you more peace than your mental health, prioritize this and never ever compromise that for nobody.
6. It is better to adjust your life to their absence than to lower your boundaries to accommodate the disrespect.
7. Love is a beautiful thing, it won’t always be easy but as long as you are BOTH committed to working it out, it is usually and in most cases worth it.
8. Never ever settle. Who you pick to do life with is the second most important decision you’ll ever make in your life, It can make or break you.
9. Being single is not a death sentence, enjoy your time alone, discover YOU, love You how you want to be Loved.
10. The greatest love story is the one you have with your creator, he is madly in love with you, his love never changes and it will never fail.
A bonus one, red flags won’t turn green, it’s not a traffic light baby, never let anyone show you twice that they don’t want you. 📞Ok byeeeeeee”

Popular Nollywood actorTimini Egbuson has discussed his encounters with dating Nigerian women, both at home and overseas.
According to Timini, dating Nigerian women abroad was a more fulfilling experience than dating them domestically.
The actor elaborates on the luxury that makes dating in the diaspora a popular choice for many individuals, drawing on his own and his friends’ experiences in the most recent Menisms Podcast edition.
Timini emphasised the fierce competition that Nigerian women face in foreign dating scenes in his argument.
According to the actor, Nigerian girls in Nigeria have options however, their counterparts outside rely on dating services to find marriages due to a lack of options.
He said:
“I honestly feel like, and this is me talking from my personal experience, I feel like you’d get a better dating experience from a Nigerian girl living abroad than a Nigerian girl living here.
My reason is this [is] Nigerian girls living abroad, in London, America or Canada are the minority in the dating pool over there. There are so many more ethnicities, so there are options and I don’t know if the average guy out there is looking for a Nigerian babe to date.
So when a Nigerian babe abroad catches you, you’re honestly the catch and she’d take care of you and she’d be happy to take care of you. A lot of Nigerian girls and a lot of my friends are baddies, I know that if they were in Lagos they would be on their phones checking who to go on dates. But they’re out there on dating sites in other countries.
When they catch a Nigerian man who has the same values as them, who understands their jokes and wants to watch the same shows, you’re the prize. But over here, they have options. Even the ones that aren’t the best looking.”

She made the comment on Twitter following criticism levelled at Super Eagles player Alex Iwobi during Nigeria’s 2023 AFCON finals loss to Cote d’Ivoire.

“Most Nigerians are the real bullies, imagine bullying the boys that took us to the finals, they are humans too, nor be all Nigerian get mind like Una phyna wey Una dy bully all the time…… bunches of ungrateful goats….. come for me make thunder fire your mama, Mtcheew”
Most Nigerians are Razz, local, dirty and bullies, this is applicable to some celebrities too……. Tomorrow now Una go wear white cloth and candle dy shout justices for somebody……… nor be Alex Iwobi be the cause of this failed nation. Misplaced priorities…….”
