Duchess of Sussex, Meghan Markle has been shammed by critics over a thigh high slit dress she donned recently – the pregnant royalty who is in Australia with Prince Harry, rocked a striped thigh-high slit dress with gladiator sandals.
However, in a post from the official Instagram account of Kensington Palace, commenters gave their opinions, with some calling the dress “inappropriate.” Some also questioned why Kensington Palace didn’t include Meghan in its photo roundup.
“Smart of KP not posting the photo of Meghan wearing that summer dress while visiting this forest. So inappropriate for someone representing the Queen,” one person wrote.
Another commenter, who claimed to be a fan of Meghan’s, went so far as to call the dress a harbinger of things to come.
“Things are getting out of control someone should advice [sic] them. She is going to end up as another Fergie who was so popular in the beginning but so unpopular after a few months of mistakes. Look at the other pics. She is holding the dress in order not to open, even her breasts can be seen when she bends to talk to people. Someone needs to protect her. Advice [sic] her.”
Another said
“Everyone is entitled for their bad days also. It happens. Hope she never repeats this again,” one wrote.
And then, of course, there were those who rose to the duchess’s defense. One noted that when you’re pregnant,
“the heat is your worst nightmare… Did u forget they’re in Australia??? Leave that girl alone. Meghan is here to stay.”
Others claimed the naysayers are “just jealous,” and some even drew comparisons to past outfits worn by other royals, like the late Princess Diana and Meghan’s sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
“Remember the time when Duchess of Cambridge wore a thigh high slit maxi dress for the premiere of A Street Cat Named Bob,” one wrote, referring to Kate’s 2016 red carpet look by Self Portrait. “Well that happened and people were fine with it.”

Also speaking to the media for the first time since allegations were made that he raped a model in a Las Vegas hotel in 2009, Ronaldo denied the allegations having previously insisted his “conscience was clear.”
“I know I am an example, 100 per cent. On the pitch and off the pitch. I’m a happy man. We did the statement two weeks ago.
“Of course I’m not going to lie on this situation. My lawyers are confident and of course I am too.
“The most important thing is that I enjoy football and enjoy life. I have people who take care of my life. The true always come in the first position.”
The Director of Strategy and Documentation of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Olisa Mbakwe on Monday announced that its leader, Nnamdi Kanu has been sacked from the group.
Mbakwe said Kanu was fired for placing more value on his dog than those murdered in the struggle for the realisation of Biafra.
Speaking during Sunday’s broadcast from his base in Israel, Kanu mourned his dog and “a few other people” in his compound, who lost their lives when military men invaded the place in September 2017.
Kanu had said during the broadcast, “The Army of the zoo killed my dog Jack and a few other people in my compound. I am sorry for what my sureties are passing through, but I want to assure them that they will have a special place in Biafra. I shall not be honouring the court.”
Reacting, Mbakwe described Kanu as an “insensitive and callous leader that has no value for his own followers but rather his dog, Jack whom he paid tributes to after his long disappearance from the struggle”.
In a statement he personally signed, Mbakwe, of IPOB, also insisted that Kanu was a “traitor not worthy of any leadership position anywhere in the world”.
He stated that Kanu was removed for reasons which included, “personalisation of the Biafran struggle and derailing from the core objectives of IPOB as a grassroots movement”.
The statement read:
“On Sunday, October 21, 2018, an individual, Mazi Nnamdi Nwanekaenyi Kanu, claiming to be the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) and Director General of Radio Biafra made a live broadcast that has left us perplexed, because it is unthinkable that someone will impersonate IPOB to the point of plotting to abuse the organization to hurt the interest of Biafra.
“The strength of the Republic of Biafra that we are struggling to actualize, is in its human resources as embodied in our versatile youths that dominate the fields of play across sectors of human endeavor; the country we have set our vision on creating is therefore not to be made up of tombstones but of people fulfilling their life missions as ordained by God.
“Nnamdi Kanu relinquished his position as the leader of IPOB struggle the day he deserted our members to die, when they had mobilized to stand for our belief in Biafra at his residence in Afaraukwu.
Several of our members were injured and some died in that encounter and even after emerging from hiding more than one year later all Kanu could do was to desecrate their memory with his radio broadcast.
Nnamdi Kanu vividly, specifically and particularly recalled his family dog, Jack, by name while he dismissed our members that died as mere statistics — he only recalled them as 28 IPOB members.
“Even if Kanu had not deserted, there is no way we would have continued under the leadership of a man that values his family dog more than Biafrans.
“We are not unmindful of how Kanu struck the deal that granted him bail in the first place while abandoning our members, Benjamin Madubugwu, David Nwawusi, Bright Chimezie Ishinwa and Chidiebere Onwudiwe to languish in jail.
Instead of using his freedom to accelerate the freedom of these authentic freedom fighters, he rather went about Biafra land receiving obeisance from Biafrans like a monarch, when our dear land is completely republican. The travails of these our brothers are not over yet and might have been worsened by Kanu’s live broadcast, which has totally upset us.
“In line with the decisions earlier announced on Radio Biafra on November 17, 2017 that Mazi Ezenwachukwu Sampson Okwudili is the new director for the radio, we reaffirm that Mazi Nnamdi Nwanekaenyi Kanu remains sacked as the Director of Radio Biafra and has also been removed as the leader of IPOB since he has proven he is not a worthy leader that respects the sanctity of the lives of our members.
“Following interventions by our leaders, considerations were being made to reverse the earlier announcement but after studying the Kanu’s live broadcast from Israel we came to the painful conclusion that we cannot make progress with our vision of Biafra, when one man has completely personalized and commercialized the struggle.
The decision to drop Nnamdi Kanu from playing leading roles in IPOB affairs is hereby upheld. We shall announce replacements after consultations with the various stakeholders.”

In recent news that’s starting to trend following the emergence of new wedding photos on her Instagram page, Sharon Oyakhilome, daughter of Preacher Chris Oyakhilome, has held two different white wedding ceremonies in one month.

According to new reports, the second wedding however was in honour of the mother of the bride and this time, the father was absent.

He was said to have lured the girl into a bush path under the pretence of wanting to send her on an errand and forcefully had carnal knowledge of her.
“It was the shouting and crying of the girl that attracted the attention of local vigilante operatives who rescued the girl and placed a distress call to Police at Idiroko division. The DPO, CSP Aloko Amodu, quickly led his men to the scene and promptly arrested the suspect who had been severely beaten by angry mob”, Oyeyemi stated in a press statement made available to Crimepuzzle.
The PPRO further said that both the suspect and the victim were taken to the hospital for medical attention.

Following a recent brouhaha they had recently on Instagram, Big Brother Naija stars, Ifu Ennada and Dee-one still seem to be at each other’s throats as the former has outed the comedian again.
The cosmetologist who warned the comedian to keep her name off his mouth as he has refused to pick his calls nor reply her text messages, added that their face-off might be linked to not sending a video Dee-One requested for.
She wrote,
Dear @comediandeeone as I write this I’m short of words. You took a clear subtle joke and turned it into a Disaster Trigger. I thought we were supposed to be friends off social media…
—
—
I have called you on the phone to know the precise cause of your afflictions, but you’ve refused to take any of my calls or reply your messages. —
—
Is this because I haven’t sent the video you asked me to record for you? Are you really mad at me for this or is there something I’m missing here? —
—
Now you’ve resorted to more name callings on your page. The last thing I want to do is get in the mud with a pig, so I’m going to say this and not revisit this issue –

— “Dee One, keep my name out of your mouth and sentences. You might have time for frivolities, but I have a business to run and a brand to build. You’re clearly a comedian whose a failure at recognising the simplest joke and I can’t help deliver you from this burden.”
Well, ouch! Our arms are folded as we await a response from the comedian.
Following the recent reports trailing her marriage to Nollywood actor, IK Ogbonna, Colombian beauty, Sonia Morales took to her Instagram page to pen down a message to those who are interested in her marital crisis and insinuating that it has crashed.
According to the motivational writer, there is nothing as classy as one minding his or her business – she says there’s a real world out there, which is different from the imaginary one.
In her own words,
Don’t allow ur data finish on blogs. There is something waaay better then imaginary world u created for yourselves,its called “real life”and something called “your life” and facing it can be super fun and exciting. Trust me ,I talk from experience ? Im really not bothered,if u like continue making order people’s life a priority,but remember nothing is more classy then minding ya own business
It was earlier reported that the Nollywood actor who shares a son with Sonia, reacted to the report of his wife flashing a ringless finger.
He wrote;
‘ALL RELATIONSHIPS GO THROUGH HELL. REAL RELATIONSHIPS GO THROUGH IT.’
Delectable Actress, Toyin Abraham has reacted to reports that she’s about to marry a fellow colleague, an actor.
Toyin in a post has declared that there’s no element of truth in it, as she’s currently focused on her work.
She took to her page, to write:
“I am Not About to Get Married to Any Fellow Actor” – Toyin Abraham “It has come to my attention reports from some quarters saying that I am about to get married to a fellow actor. This assertion, insinuation and report is false and fallacious. I have respect for actors but I am not about to get married to anyone who is an actor.
I have been busy with my work as an actor, working tirelessly on my TV, my lip stick launch and other businesses. The only relationship I have with any man in the industry is purely professional and it is high time we stop insinuating and spreading false rumours when we see two colleagues of opposite sex working together. That is what the job entails and I expect that people should be smarter than this.
If and when I am ready to walk down the aisle, you will not be hearing it from the rumour mongers, gossip magazine that are no longer in the city and people hell bent on cooking up imaginative stories about me. You will be hearing it from me directly.
I reiterate that I am not about to get married to ANY fellow actor.” Signed: Toyin Abraham

Travelers who intend travelling through Kaduna have been advised by the Nigeria police to consider taking alternative routes amidst the on-going Kaduna crisis.
This was disclosed by Jimoh Moshood, police spokesperson who said this measure is imperative to forestall attack as the police is working to maintain calm in troubled area, Premium Times reports.
Moshood said this while featuring on Sunrise Daily, a programme on Channels Television Monday, October 22.
“We advise those who will be passing through Kaduna, because Kaduna is gateway to so many states to the north, top make use of alternative routes. They can by-pass Kaduna metro for now because the 24 hours curfew is only within Kaduna metro and in Kajuru local government.
“There are quite a number of alternative routes that can make use of. The announcement has been made since yesterday and we want those who have relatives who want to travel to advise them to make use of alternative routes to by-pass alternative routes.”
He added that:
“Adequate security service has been made for those who will be making use of the train service from Abuja to Kaduna and other parts of the country.”
“Before now, the announcement have been made that there is 24 hours curfew. We so much believe that as soon as normalcy is restored and evaluation of this normalcy is done, the curfew will wind down, if not completely but restricted to some places.”

This Journal Is Inspired By An Incident That Happened To A Female Friend Of Mine. She’s been happily dating a guy for 9 months and to her shock she ran into this guy, her “So Called Boyfriend” at a friends church with his wife and 3 sons all wearing matching colors attending a thanksgiving service. She’s been emotionally drained and most importantly asking herself ‘how did this happen to her?’ Because she didn’t know he was married. .
Ladies don’t be a Sheep in a World full of Wolves. This being said, when you meet a guy who has taken an interest in you , don’t go into that relationship on “face validity” alone. Do a proper research on him, what a Psychologist would call “Construct Validity” I.e thorough search, bring out your inner FBI and CIA, don’t bother if you look like a stalker, you’re looking out for yourself. Google his name, check your mutual friends on Facebook, Instagram ,Twitter and any social media. .
Ask these mutual friends about him, his past relationships, etc you’ll be surprised what you may find out. And for those who didn’t do any research on their man and are dating him already, here are some red flags to look out for to know if he’s married or has another Girlfriend.
Any guy who continuously doesn’t answer his phone or reply messages past 9pm.
Any guy who has the perfect excuse for you not meeting his friends or family members for a long period of time
Any guy who never wants to go anywhere public like a mall, cinema, beach etc. always private bars or guest house
Any guy who tries to replace time spending with you with gifts and money
Any guy who doesn’t update pictures on whatsapp or any social media “too coded guys” ( you can’t know what they are up to Any guy who disappears on his Birthday or Valentine’s Day in the name of business trip.
All these are red flags you should look out for. .
Ladies, you don’t want to have an imaginary boyfriend or be with someone who has a family somewhere. The most important factor here is TIME. .
You don’t want to lose years or months of your life in an imaginary relationship that won’t bare any fruits.
This morning, while performing at the Afrika Shrine, Davido declared his uncle, Senator Ademola Adeleke, winner of the Osun governorship election.
According to SaharaReporters who captured the clip, the singer who performed alongside all artistes under his record label, made the statement during the closing ceremony of Felabration 2018, which was themed ‘Overtaking Overtake’.
It was gathered that the singer had difficulties gaining entrance into the backstage, as the crowd waiting to catch a glimpse of him blocked his path.
Afterwards, he was ushered onto the stage by his protege, Mayorkun. He, however, stopped midway into his performance to announce his uncle the winner of the election.
He said; “I want to give a shout-out to His Excellency, Governor Nurudeen Ademola Adeleke, the Governor of Osun State.”
The week-long annual Felabration 2018 event which came to an end on Monday morning, is organised in celebration of Nigeria’s Afrobeat maestro, Fela Anikulapo Kuti.
The senior Pastor of the Latter Rain Assembly Pastor Tunde Bakare, has called out religious leaders who visit Aso Rock and refuse to speak the truth on the plight of Nigerians, to the leaders at the presidential Villa.
The pastor insisted that Nigerians must always speak the truth to power and do away with what he termed a culture of Hypocrisy, The Pulse reports.
He made this statement on Sunday, October 21, 2018, while speaking at the thanksgiving service to mark the 16 anniversary of Foursquare Gospel Church Asokoro, Abuja.
Pastor Bakare observed that some politicians have rendered themselves gods due to the level of authority they have, forgetting that “God brought them there and he has a way of removing them,”.
He Stated that:
“There is so much corruption in this country. But show me a country in the world which has no corruption. What is the solution? We are the answer to the dilemma of Nigeria but we keep playing church. We are the reason Nigeria is the way it is. You and I are responsible,”
Pastor Bakare made reference to Genesis 6:12 and Phil 4:10 – 14 and 18 to describe the problem of corruption. He also insisted that the solution should be people-driven.
“When Samuel (in the Bible) entered the city, the king trembled but when some pastors visit Aso Villa, they are the ones shaking. All they want is photo opportunity (with the President),” he said.
He added that the country is experiencing internal hostility due to superiority some certain individual show to the rest of the people.
Ethiopian doctors found over a hundred iron nails in a man’s stomach in the capital Addis Ababa at the weekend. Other sharp objects were also extracted from the stomach of the patient.
Dawit Teare, a surgeon at St. Peter’s Specialised Hospital, said the 33-year-old patient suffers from mental illness and had apparently consumed the items, including 122 four inch (10 centimetre) nails, four pins, a toothpick and pieces of broken glass.
“The patient has been suffering from mental illness for the last 10 years and had stopped taking his medication two years ago, one probable reason he started consuming inanimate objects,” Dawit told AFP after the two-and-a-half hour operation.
“I’m guessing he consumed the objects with the help of water, however he is a lucky person that those sharp objects didn’t cut his stomach. That could have led to serious infections and even death,” he said.
The surgeon said that while he had dealt with other cases in which people with mental illness had swallowed multiple sharp objects, he had never encountered a case on this scale.
Dawit added that the patient was recovering well after the surgery and he will be monitored to ensure that he continues his medication.
