A man attacked his wife in church after Pastor Chris Okafor reportedly saw a vision and prophesied that she was the one behind his problems.
According to multiple reports, the man had sold his properties to travel out of the country, suffered severely to get a visa, and he eventually succeeded.
Pastor Chris Okafor
Time came for him to travel, but he was unable to go, after he couldn’t find his passport. Apparently, he missed the trip, which was supposed to have been on Tuesday.
While conducting deliverance in church, popular Nigerian pastor, Chris Okafor, informed the man that his fiancee, Joy, was the one who hid his passport.
The man found it hard to believe and kept shaking his head in denial. When the pastor insisted it was true and his fiancee’s face had guilt written all over it, the man lunged at her and began to attack her.
Timaya has revealed to those that wants to know or care to listen that he’s not getting married anytime soon.
The popular singer, welcomed his third child, a boy with his girlfriend, Tamar, and it seems rather obvious that he won’t change his stance on marriage anytime soon.
He took to Instagram to celebrate the opening of her interior decor showroom in Lekki, Lagos.
When a fan wished he would one day refer to her as his wife, not a boo, he replied that marriage is not the most important thing in life, Happiness is.
Thanks to the local policemen we see on the roads collecting #100 bribe from truck drivers et all, our minds has been stereotyped to thinking that to be a policeman in Nigeria, you have to have a pot belly, an oversized not-so-good-looking uniform, a bicycle cap and of course, the signature police club, better known as “Kondo Olopa“.
Seven out of every ten Nigerian policemen fits the above description so it’s no wonder when a narrative is being given about a Nigerian policeman, that’s the image that comes to our head, just like it is now in yours, ami right?!
Well, we’re not going to be talking about the larger ratio as mentioned above, this time, we’re focusing on the smaller ratio, which we even think is 2:1 cause the policeman we’re about to tell you about isn’t your regular Nigerian policeman.
Bruno Chigozie Opara is not like your regular policeman, matter of fact, he’s the kind of policeman that when they want to make security ads for policemen, he’s the model for the job or maybe for a romantic music where a lady got arrested by an handsome cop… you know what I mean?.
Bruno is quite aware of his uniqueness and it definitely has to be why he flaunts this uniqueness on social media.
Photos from him hitting the gym, to taking car selfies in his uniform to having dinner with a family member et all, Bruno is sure one officer who lives the life of a social media star.
Because of this, he has garnered the attraction of many Nigerians, especially the ladies who would be glad if he arrested them.
Checkout his photos below and see if it’s arguable that he’s the hottest, most handsome policeman in the country!
A Nigerian Lady has admonished other Ladies to treat their husbands right, by going extra when serving him food.
Identified as Ujuamara David Paul, she took to her Facebook to write:
“To those my brothers/friends that are not yet married, if she does not serve you food like this, she’s not a WIFE MATERIAL. To those sisters/friends that are not married yet, If you cannot serve him food like this you’re not a wife material..”
“and to those sisters/friends of mine that are married if you cannot serve him food like this, you better go and look for where you left your wife materialism, y’all MUST use your back as a dinning table”
A UNILAG law graduate who was getting depressed after he couldn’t raise money to pay for his law school fees, is now heaving a sigh of relief after Nigerian twitter users came together to donate towards his fees which was N296k.
Adefehinti Ibukunola had gone on twitter to ask for help after he couldn’t raise the N296, 000 fees for his law school and he said the deadline for the fees payment is on Monday December 3rd.
Yesterday, he raised the complete money for his fees and came on twitter to express gratitude to all those who contributed.
I might not go to lawschool just because of 296k, grocery money to some people. *sigh*. Now I know what depression feels like.
I’m a depressed human walking the street with a fake smile. I’m going through what I never envisaged, it’s burning me in the inside. I want to end it. I never knew I could be this vulnerable to depression. It comes harder on me the most when I’m on my own.
Thank you all for your donations. I have gotten and paid for my law school fee. You guys are literally sending me to Lawschool, I promise not to let you down. God bless you guys immensely. Thank you ??.
A man has cried out on social media after one of his associate’s son suffered reactions on his skin after taking fake anti-malaria drug.
The drug was reportedly purchased off the counter from a nearby pharmacy store, but it was quite unfortunate it was a fake anti-malaria drug.
The man however threatened to take strict actions against the maker of the drug as well as the pharmaceutical shop involved:
This how sad and mad I am this morning! I have to post this now! The innocent boy going through this affliction happens to be the son of one of the most dependable guys working with me. He’s a very smart boy and I’m fond of him. Now he had malaria fever (only) and his parents went to a nearby pharmacy to buy anti malaria drugs which they gave him and unknown to them, it was a fake anti malaria drug.
Instantly, the boy reacts after taking the drugs and the picture your seeing is the outcome. I couldn’t sleep last night! He’s been admitted at the federal medical hospital Abuja as we speak and struggling to survive.
I’m supporting them in every way I can to make sure the boy survives. My point is that the challenge in this country is beyond governance. Greed is at the root of it all! And it beats me hollow how our values have been deeply degraded.
All we care about is making money at all cost and expense. I’m on my way back to the hospital with so much fury typing this message.
This time I’ll ensure the pharmacy shop is sealed and the operators brought to book. But then, that’s not the solution. It’s a temporary measure because the fake drugs cartel won’t lose sleep cos one vendor is shutdown.
It’s either GREED gives way or Nigeria gives way! The choice is ours!!
A woman has been arrested for allegedly beating up her boyfriend after he spurned her sexual advances.

Phelps then allegedly grew angry and ‘scratched the victim on his left eye causing it to swell and turn black and blue,’ according to the arrest report.
When police arrived, Phelps denied touching the victim.
She was booked on misdemeanor domestic battery charges. She was released on Sunday morning after she posted $100 bond.
Phelps has been ordered by a judge not to have any contact with the victim.

President Buhari paid a visit on Wednesday, 28th of November 2018, to the wounded soldiers in Maiduguri, Borno state.
Reno Omokri has however taken to social media to compare President Buhari’s visit to that of ex-president Goodluck Jonathan’s visit to wounded soldiers during his regime.
He shared pictures from both events as he revealed that one can fake a visit but can never fake compassion.
He wrote;
The difference between a ruler and a leader. @MBubari went to Maiduguri to see our troops in hospital and waved to them like a star.
@GEJonathan did the same 4 years ago and he touched the soldiers and felt their pain. You can fake a visit. You can’t fake compassion #RenosDarts
A Nigerian man has in a viral video, warned OAP and leader of the Free the Sheeple movement, Daddy Freze to desist from talking about men of God.
The viral video was shared just after Freeze condemned the recent dedication of the largest church auditorium in Abuja.
In the video, the man said Freeze should stop talking about men of God if he doesn’t want to die an untimely death.
Watch the video below…

Daddy Freeze in reaction wrote:
This cheap bleaching cream is not working. Please contact @iamdencia and @blacchyna to sort your bleaching issues out with a much better cream, if only you can afford it. If you can’t I hope Paul Enenche sends you some money for defending him like this.
Are you sure these men are really your fathers? If they are did they abandon you at birth? You don’t look like their kids.
You speak of moses and his sister, we are not under the mosaic law anymore. So what applied to Moses and Miriam does not apply to Christians. Nothing happened to those who stoned Stephen in Acts Chapter 7, as a matter of fact, he even prayed for them.
Yes, Christ referred to the temple as his father’s house but it would be utterly unscholarly to stop there. Read the scripture till the end and educate yourself. He said he was going to bring down the temple and rebuild it in 3 days, so the temple is no longer a building but now his body, therefore Christianity does not need the big temples your foster parents who don’t know you exist, are building.
I schooled both you and your spirit daddy Paul, in yesterday’s video which I believe you should watch
◄ John 2 ►
[15] Jesus made a whip from some ropes and chased them all out of the Temple. He drove out the sheep and cattle, scattered the money changers’ coins over the floor, and turned over their tables. [16] Then, going over to the people who sold doves, he told them, “Get these things out of here. Stop turning my Father’s house into a marketplace!”
[17]Then his disciples remembered this prophecy from the Scriptures: “Passion for God’s house will consume me.” [18] But the Jewish leaders demanded, “What are you doing? If God gave you authority to do this, show us a miraculous sign to prove it.” [19] “All right,” Jesus replied.
“Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.” [20]“What!” they exclaimed. “It has taken forty-six years to build this Temple, and you can rebuild it in three days?” [21]But when Jesus said “this temple,” he meant his own body. [22] After he was raised from the dead, his disciples remembered he had said this, and they believed both the Scriptures and what Jesus had said.

Friends and family are still in tears over the gruesome murder of a First Class 300 Level undergraduate of Delta State University (DELSU), Abraka.
The pathetic confessional statements of the 4-man gang believed to be internet fraudsters, Yahoo boys, were made on Wednesday (yesterday), at the Delta State Police Command, where the suspects were paraded.
The suspects revealed how they killed the student, identified as Elozino Joshualia Ogege with the help of a security guard, Onos who offered to assist the victim secure an accommodation.
According to him,
“I was contacted by Desmond and another to provide a female student for Yahoo rituals. We had planned it, and when Elozino approached me that she was looking for accommodation, I saw it as a good opportunity”.
“I contacted Desmond who told me to tell her to come back the next day. So the next day, they brought a Corola car; and when Elozino came, they used something on her face which made her unconscious. We took her to a bush where we first plucked out one of her eyes while she was still alive. She was even crying and begging us to forgive her and let her go, but we plucked the other eye, removed her breast and heart before she died”.
Implicating his supervisor, Onos posited that he was posted into the school by his supervisor for the purposes of carrying out such missions when contacted.
But the Supervisor with a security company attached to the University, Uche Nwaosisi who said he is from Asaba, denied knowledge of the crime, stating that he was among those that chased and caught Onos when the police came after him in the school.
“When all these were happening, Onos threatened to implicate me for assisting the police to catch him. When the police caught him, they discovered two phones with him, which he claimed I sold one to him. That was my involvement “, the supervisor claimed.
However, one of the Yahoo Plus conspirators, Desmond who appeared remorseful, affirmed that the Elozino’s murder made it the fifth life he has taken for ritual purposes. He said the first four female victims were adopted at Oghara and killed for the rituals, adding that Elozino’s murder was his first from the University community in Abraka.
According to him,
“Each time we killed, we removed the vital organs like the eyes, the heart and the breast of the victims, normally females, and take to the Baba (herbalist), who usually would ask us to come back”.
“Baba used to burn the heart and pound it to make powder substance out of it. It is the powder that he gives us, which we apply before speaking to our victims to make money from them. Any big woman we approach obliges us and provides money for us”, Desmond revealed.
For the native doctor who appeared hardened and unrepentant, identified as Robinson, he kept calling on God as a witness that he was speaking the truth. He said Elozino’s heart and eye happened to be the first he received from the Yahoo Plus customers.
He said he first met the boys seven years ago when they brought an accident victim for him to cure, maintaining that he specializes in treating bone fractures, making women pregnant, preparing love portions for people, curing appendicitis and others.
He said when they came with Elozino’s body parts, they gave him N10,000, promising to give him more money later, and asked him to make them rich.
The Baba (herbalist), posited that they later brought N130,000 more to him and that was when he discovered they had mighty buildings. He said he only prayed for them to succeed in what they do.
He however, could not state categorically what he used those body parts for, whether he used to burn them or pound them in the mortal that was brought as evidence to the Police Headquarters.
The second Yahoo Plus member was alleged to have slumped and died when the police was close to catching him. The minor female relative who was used to make a call relating to their illicit operation was arrested and still with the police.
Addressing the journalists, the Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Andrew Aniamaka maintained that, now that all the killers of Elozino had been caught except the one that slumped and died, the police would now arraign them in court to face the consequences of their action.
He stressed that nobody should blame hardship to take up arms against fellow humans, adding that in most sane climes, hardships even bond people together.
The Command’s Spokesperson posited that it is an issue of value orientation; thereby calling on families, churches and other faith based organizations to rise up against this menace of ritual killings plaguing our society.
Aniamaka reassured the public that the Command was ready to face headlong any security challenge ahead of the Christmas season.
He said the operations order for the Ember months had since been dropped, arguing that all the police crack teams like the Dragons, Eagle Net, Squadrons, Safer Highways, SARS and others had been on red alert to effectively curtail crimes and criminality within this period.”
Former President Olusegun Obasanjo‘s son, Olujonwo Obasanjo says since politics is not war, he has every right to support the re-election bid of Buhari as against his father’s choice, Atiku.
According to PUNCH, Olujuwon who is the Coordinator of Buhari Youth Organisation disclosed this on Wednesday in Abuja, while addressing journalists on why President Muhammadu Buhari deserved a second term in office.
He said no one can fault the president’s integrity and honesty as a leader.
Olajuwon who refused to compare the regime of his father with the incumbent, saying both operated under different situations, added that youths had benefited more from programmes and actions of this administration.
He also added that his support for Buhari had not in anyway affected his relationship with his father or his father’s presidential choice, Atiku Abubakar.
He said;
“Buhari believes in promoting Nigerian youths which is the basis of forming this association (BYO). This government has empowered the youths to go into farming and other entrepreneurship.
“This government is laying a good foundation for an expanded economic base and infrastructure development.”
“This government is leading us towards economic diversification as this nation is blessed with vast resources. I believe in this government as an individual and I’m supporting Mr President. I can’t speak on behalf of my father.
“I’m here as an individual, adult, and someone who believes in this government. Politics can’t separate me and my father. We are still one loving family; our relationship is cordial.
“Politics is meant to unite us. It is important we rise above ethnicity, religious bigotry, and primordial sentiments.
“When you get to certain stage and point in your life, you can choose your path. My father remains my father despite different political ideologies.”
A Florida woman is facing fraud and conspiracy charges after allegedly getting caught in a scam connected to a Michigan business and a Nigerian man.
WPBN reports Sylvia Williams, 80, was arrested after scamming a Grand Traverse County business out of more than $4,000.
Investigators said a scammer called an Acme Township cleaning company, saying they were moving to the area and wanted to pay for cleaning services in advance.
The scammer sent a check for $4,900, requesting they return a check for $4,300 to an address in Columbia County, Florida.
The bank noticed the first check was fake, but the business had already sent the money to the Florida address.
Deputies in Columbia County, Florida followed up on the address and arrested Sylvia Williamsnfor conspiracy and fraud.
According to the report, Sylvia was forwarding the checks to a Nigerian man even though police had warned her before to not get involved.
“The female down in Florida had a relationship with the Nigerian and this relationship has gone on for several years and she trust this person and because there was that trust this lady would do anything for them, even if it involves fraudulent activities,” Lt. Chris Barsheff with the Grand Traverse County Sheriff’s Office told WPBN.
Barsheff says the scammers likely targeted Williams knowing she would be vulnerable, making her somewhat of a victim herself.
The Acme Township business was able to recover the money they lost in the scam.
Ghana-based Gambian Slay Queen and actress, Princess Shyngle who was embroiled in a sex scandal in Nigeria some months ago, has advised those who can’t find love to stop bothering about searching for it, instead they should let it find them.
The curvy dark-skinned actress in a new Instagram post, also spoke of how relationship these days are based on physical connection without regard for the emotional side.
She wrote;
“People are in such a rush to fall in love. We base our relationship off a physical connection rather than an emotional one.
We force ourselves to like someone so we won’t be alone. We settle for those that don’t quite satisfy our wants and needs.
Stop looking for love, let it find you. The best things in life are worth waiting for and love is definitely one of them.
Sometimes it happens overnight and sometimes it takes years but you have to have patience. Learn to love yourself so that you don’t feel like you need to be loved by someone else in order to feel complete.”
An officer of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS), on Wednesday, allegedly shot dead an official of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) at Iyana Ipaja, Lagos.

Sources said that when the police officer realized what had happened, he made an attempt to flee by lunging his car through the gathering crowd but was stopped by the mob before causing more damages.

The Nigeria Medical Association (NMA) has attributed poor remuneration and inadequate health facilities as some of the major reasons for mass exodus of medical doctors from the country.
Dr Ekpe Phillips, the FCT Chapter NMA Chairman, said this at the opening of the Annual Health Week of the Association of Resident Doctors (ARD) in Abuja where described the pay package of doctors in Nigeria as poor, stressing the need for government to increase the remuneration of doctors to address the challenge.
He noted that many doctors who left the country to take up foreign appointment did so due to inadequate facilities among other factors. He listed mass unemployment, lack of placement for residency faced by a high proportion of medical professionals in Nigeria as other factors.
Phillips said Nigeria is losing doctors to foreign countries, adding that Nigerian doctors are leaving the country for greener pastures and the workload is becoming too much on the doctors that stay.
“We hear doctors collapsing because the workload is too much because their colleagues have left to find a greener gesture. We have internal and international brain drain; Nigeria now has one doctor catering for 5,000 patients instead of one doctor to 600 patients.
Brain drain is now becoming pandemic and sad news because government did not and still is not doing enough; there is no serious commitment to stemming this syndrome. Nigeria which was one of the richest 50 countries in the early 70s has metro greased to become one of the 25 poorest countries in the World today,’’ he said.
Dr Michael Olarewaju, the President of Association of Residents Doctors, FCT chapter, said that brain drain was a massive problem to Nigeria’s health system. He said that if the problem was not properly tackled in the next two to three years there would not be enough doctors to treat patients in the country. He observed that initially the problem in the sector was strike by health workers “but now they are not going on strike but are exiting the country’’.
