Nigerian singing sensation, Simi is among the list of celebrities who are happy with the current state of the country.
She says, most times, when she just encounters as little as a pothole, she becomes exhausted and frustrated.
Sharing a tweet on her page, Simi says she’s exasperated most people want the power but do not want the responsibility that comes with it.
She wrote,
I try very often not to say or think it too much, but being a Nigerian is so hard. It’s literally difficult. Lately, sometimes all I need to see is one pothole and I’m just exhausted. And my frustration is mostly that everyone wants the power, no one wants the responsibility
A very beautiful Delsu Pharmacy student identified as Miss Umukoro Joy, is engaged.
She got the surprised engagement from her boyfriend at her induction ceremony in the University… The engagement wasn’t just an ordinary one, as her boyfie proposed to her with a Lexus car.
The Delsu Pharmacy student who has been dating her fiance for years, said yes to her man.
A guy whose girlfriend’s dad passed away in 2015, decided to propose to her at her father’s graveside with a tear jerking letter asking for permission from the dead man to marry his daughter.
Justin and Meg met at the university and their relationship developed organically. “We spent more and more time together. From the start, Justin always told me that he knew I was the one,” Meg told HowHeAsked.
But when her dad was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in 2014, times were hard for the couple.
“It was so rare that doctors have not found a cure yet. After my dad was diagnosed, Justin was always there for me whether it was a shoulder to cry on or someone to vent to. “At the time, I wasn’t the easiest person to get along with. I was confused, angry and in denial.
“After my dad passed away a year later, things were tough. My dad was my best friend and to him, I was truly his “little girl.” “Justin knew how much my dad meant to me and how difficult it is to experience the big moments in life without him.”
The romantic decided that he would involve Gino, Meg’s dad, in arguably the biggest moment of her life. Knowing that Gino’s favourite animal was a flamingo, Justin bought a lovely solar-powered decoration for his grave so the couple could take it together one weekend.
They chose the date, September 7, and Meg says she felt her dad was with her after a ‘sign’ when arriving at the cemetery. Justin told Meg to open the letter and, as she read, she realized it was written from her boyfriend to her dad asking for his blessing to marry her.
The last line said: “I hope you are smiling down on us during this moment… the moment I ask your daughter to be my wife.” Meg slowly turned and realised Justin was down on one knee. The bride-to-be says it was the happiest moment of her life.

A 17-year-old girl identified simply as Peace had to be rushed to the hospital after feeling weak following a hot sex romp with her lover in Sapele area of Delta state.
It was gathered that the teenage girl started feeling weak and faint after returning from work on Monday evening before she was taken to the hospital for checkup.
According to Sapele Oghenek, a Delta based journalist who shared the news in pidgin English, after the doctor ran some tests, it was discovered that excessive sex was the cause of the girl’s weakness before she was treated and discharged.
On getting home, the girl’s mother who reportedly attends Jehovah’s Witnesses beat her and told her to show her the boy responsible. The teenage girl took her mother to her boyfriend’s house but he had already fled after being alerted.
According to the report, some area boys revealed that the girl’s boyfriend had met them to help him with what to do because his girlfriend was laughing at him that he doesn’t know how to service her well and last long in bed and that her ex-boyfriend was better.
The young man was directed to meet somebody who mixed a concoction for him to drink and be “empowered”.
After drinking the concoction, he went into action with his girlfriend and almost wrecked havoc before she landed in the hospital.
The young man is nowhere to be found after taking off from his house.
So while sharing an Instagram live video on the platform, Nollywood actress, Anita Joseph and former Big Brother Naija housemate, Alex were seen crying uncontrollably.
In the video, Alex can be seen in so much tears that it even washes off her makeup – we know the tall beauty to be one who cries a lot as she did so many times while in the house, especially the time her colleague, Leo was evicted.
Anita and Alex were apparently appreciating each other while doing the video and it got all emotional that the both of them began to shed tears.
Not too long ago, Alex took to the gram to celebrate having 1 million followers on the Social media app – she will be the first Big Brother Naija housemate, Double wahala edition, to get to a million followers.
About 12 hours after she celebrated, she’d lost thousands of followers.. and trolls are calling her out, claiming she bought fake followers.
Though as at the time of filing this report, she’s back to a million followers.
Funny Human, Akpororo, has shared with Punch’s Saturday Beats that he didn’t date his beautiful wife, Josephine, the delectably lady he married in 2015.
According to him, he knew his wife since she was part of a dance group and shortly after they began to exchange pleasantries, they got married.
Akpororo who admitted that Nigerian comedians seemed to always go for beautiful women in the interview with Saturday Beats, however, said it was just a coincidence.
“I did not date my wife. We are in the same industry and she was with Explicit Dance Group. We had met on some occasions and greeted each other. We never had any period to date; I would say we started dating after we got married. Although I am a comedian, when I approached her, she took my words seriously because whenever I am serious you would easily know.
“I was already popular as of the time I got married to my wife. Some people say that once you get married, your tempo or output in the industry would drop but I do not believe that because whatever you believe would happen to your career is what would happen to it. I changed the belief that you need to date someone for a long period before you get married,” he said.
“We work hard and we see beautiful ladies every day so it is only natural to marry a beautiful woman. It is just a coincidence that comedians have beautiful wives, but the truth is that we all love pretty women. When we talk about beauty, it does not have to do with the face alone but character, being hard-working, and a prayer warrior. We just love beautiful women.”
A desperate Nigerian lady has been scammed after some set of guy promised her an iPhone X, if only she takes to their conditions.

According to the Facebook user who shared the story, the lady later fell asleep, and was not given the prize promised to her.

A Nigerian Pastor, Identified as Ebelenna Chukwu has decided to equal himself with Jesus Christ after he reportedly turned water to wine at his church in Anambra state.
Sharing the video which showed moment he turned water to wine, the Nigerian Pastor, Ebelenna Chukwu wrote on Facebook;
Water turned into wine live in the Church Programme. If you don’t believe you are Anti Christ. Mark 9:23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.John 20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
2 Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
Romans 8:24 For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? 8:25 But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it.
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
Social Media Giant, Facebook has just disclosed that attackers took advantage of a security issue to attack its systems, and almost 50 million accounts are affected.
The flaw, discovered on Tuesday, allowed attackers to take over Facebook users’ accounts. The company’s stock dropped 3% on the news.
“Our investigation is still in its early stages. But it’s clear that attackers exploited a vulnerability in Facebook’s code that impacted ‘View As’, a feature that lets people see what their own profile looks like to someone else. This allowed them to steal Facebook access tokens which they could then use to take over people’s accounts,” Facebook’s VP of Product Management Guy Rosen wrote in a blog post announcing the news.
“Access tokens are the equivalent of digital keys that keep people logged in to Facebook so they don’t need to re-enter their password every time they use the app.”
Facebook says it’s not yet clear who is behind the attack.
It was disclosed in a blog post published on Friday. The company is holding a press call on Friday morning with the media; Business Insider will attend and update this story with more information as it becomes available.
President Buhari today blasted some elites who he said were silent and allowed the mismanagement of Nigeria.
He said this during a meeting with the Nigerian community in the United States of America on the margins of the 73rd United Nations General Assembly in New York.
The President who hailed ‘ordinary Nigerians’ who stood by him blamed the elite that allowed Nigeria to be mismanaged for 16 years of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) administration without as much as raising a voice in consternation.
“They didn’t say a word.
“Under the PTF (Petroleum Trust Fund, of which he was Chairman), we did roads from Lagos to Abuja, to Onitsha, to Port Harcourt. Since then, the roads were not done, between 1999 and 2015, yet the elite did not say a word,” Buhari noted in a statement signed on Friday by his special adviser on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.
The President also took a swipe at those who referred to him as ‘Baba Go Slow.’
He further blamed elites who he said had remained silent since 1983 when corrupt politicians that were jailed by his administration were later set free after he was put in detention.
“I was called Baba Go Slow. Those who were going fast, where did they get to?
“In 1983, military officers gathered and made me Head of State. I packed the politicians into jail, told them they were guilty until they could prove their innocence.
“We seized what they had looted, but after I myself was put in detention, the politicians were given back what they had looted. How many elites complained about that?
“Three times I contested elections; three times I went to court after the elections were rigged against me. No justice, but I said ‘God dey.’

Olori Ajoke and Tobby Pearl are names that’s currently trending on Twitter after both women had a brawl which led to the release of nudes.
Here’s the gist in details,
Tobby Pearl was having relations with Olori Ajoke’s husband and in course of this affair, she sent him nudes – this same Tobby had said in the past that she “doesn’t do married men”.
Olori Ajoke was aware of the affair between her husband and Tobby but kept quiet about it until Tobby came to her tweets to begin dropping subliminal tweets.
Olori Ajoke shared a Tweet saying real women stick to one man and Tobby replied saying:
But the real women’s men be dating all the girls. Let me just kpim.
This response certainly angered Olori Ajoke, who just had a baby, and she released the nudes Tobby sent to her husband – she also revealed that her husband has been made to pay the price for his infidelity and she doesn’t owe him her loyalty anymore.
She added that the only people she owes loyalty to are the people who are loyal to her.
Meanwhile, an old tweet shared by Tobby has been released in which she said that if she were ever in a situation where a man’s wife releases her nudes, she will continue with the relationship since everything is out there already.
Social media users have since reacted to the online spat as can be seen in screenshots below,
Obianuju Okeke, the gorgeous looking Nigerian police officer is currently raving on the internet with many wondering why such a beauty would join the Police force.
Of course, it’s quite rare for someone with Uju’s look to actually join the Police force and since she’s unique in this calibre, people have been wondering why she actually joined the force.
In a post on her IG page, she acknowledges that people have always wanted to be in the know as to why she joined the force, but she says if they really want to know, they’d have to join the force too.
She wrote,
People always ask me why i joined the force or what am i doing in the police. Lol. If only they know ? but i will leave them to keep wondering because most of us don’t have any knowledge about the police force and there’s no need explaining myself to anyone?. If you want to know, join us ? #ilovemyjob#livingmybestlife#livingmydream#imaginemein10years ?
Nigerian singer, Timaya has said that only Innocent ‘2baba’ Idibia qualifies to call himself a legend among the active artistes in the music industry.
Timaya during a recent radio interview with SoundCity FM said:
“In this part of the world, many artistes when they get to 10 years, they start shouting ‘I’m a legend’, ‘legendary’. To me, in this industry, the only person that can call himself a legend is 2face. The others shouldn’t. Even if people call me a legend, I don’t like to be seen like that.”
The dancehall star maintained that he is still the king of commercial music, saying,
“the crown never leaves. I am Timaya anytime any day, 13 years is not three years. People don’t understand that making a hit song doesn’t mean you are a star. Stars always shine, some people can make a hit song and you will never hear of them again. There’s no year I’ve never dropped a hit song. I don’t want to be number one. I just want to be a musician. A lot of people have come and gone but I’m still here.”
The father of three also gave his take on the issue of marriage, saying he is not predisposed to an elaborate ceremony.
“I don’t really go for weddings like that. I like the private marriage. If I want to get married, I will not do a big gathering. One thing is to get married, the other thing is to stay married. Staying married is the hardest part. Do you know what it means for two people with different upbringings to come and start staying together? That’s not a joke.” He said
President Buhari’s personal photographer, Bayo Omoboriowo, dished out a piece of advise to Nigerian youths following the disqualification of the Minister of Communication, Adebayo Shittu, from running for governor of Oyo state.
Yesterday, the APC National Working Committee, screened Adebayo out of the Oyo state governorship race because he did not have his NYSC certificate.
Bayo, upon seeing the news, then wrote,
Please I beg you, do all you need to do to prepare for your tomorrow.
If a Minister can disqualified from running for the office of a governor because of NYSC certificate, it tells you things are getting more serious.
Check yourself and be sure you are prepared for your tomorrow cos it sure would be bigger than what your drea can capture today

Head of states, President Muhammadu Buhari who spoke on Thursday during an interactive session with Nigerian professionals based in the US and Canada, stated that if he survives the next four years, he plans on doing better if he wins the 2019 Presidential election.
According to the President, his administration had delivered within the available resources and if he wins the forthcoming 2019 election and survive the next four years, he would do better than he had done before.
“if I win the next election and I survive the next four years, I will do better.
“I’m always conscious of the ordinary people because they are the ones that always vote for me. A lot of big men have no time to go and queue on the line for hours.
“There were even pregnant women who were on the line for hours and they delivered. They are my constituencies; they always vote for me.”
Buhari also claimed that the Boko Haram insurgents has been decimated, but regretted that the terrorist group was still targeting soft spots and using girls for suicide bombings.
President Buhari further stated that he is not as slow as assumed, noting that he’s trying to follow the law, especially as democracy is different from military rule.
Buhari also recounted how he put people in Kirikiri Maximum Prison in Lagos when he was a military head of state, and then ensured they remained in custody until they were able to prove themselves innocent.
Here’s a Whatsapp conversation between a Nigerian Software developer and a scammer posing to be a lady.
In the conversation, the said scammer tried to trick the developer into thinking she could be a “potential one night stand”, a very cheap move we feel.
The developer who wasn’t moved by the scammers antics played along to see where it’d lead to.. and alas, the scammer requested for N45,000.
President Buhari has congratulated APC’s Adegboyega Isiaka Oyetola, the governor-elect of Osun state, for winning the governorship election, which was won by a close margin.
The President extends warm felicitations to the state and national campaign teams that worked assiduously to guarantee the victory at the polls, while commending the outgoing Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola for eight years of steadfastness and service to his people.
“Thank you Osun State for supporting our good governance agenda by re-electing the APC. I assure you that we will continue to work for the progress and prosperity of the state and the nation,” he said.
The President urges the Governor-elect to always remember that the electorate expects unreserved commitment to delivering results that directly impact their lives and families.
President Buhari affirms that the successful election in the State further strengthens the democratic culture in the country, extolling INEC for, once again, making the country proud.
President Buhari commends the maturity, loyalty and courage of all contestants in putting in their best to be elected to serve the state, urging them to seek redress in court, where they disagree with the outcome.
Johannes Tobi is one of the members of President Buhari’s media team, and he’s taunted Davido by asking him to perform at Oyetola’s thanksgiving ceremony.
Meanwhile, Nollywood actress, Iretiola Doyle has spoken on Davido’s active involvement in the politics of Osun state in the past few weeks.
Davido, whose uncle is the standard bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the just-concluded governorship election in the state, has been a strong youth mobiliser for the opposition party.
However, Mrs Doyle said if Nigerians had demonstrated a similar passion and fervour in politics as Davido, the nation would have escaped the political and socio-economic doldrums it has found itself in present times.
She went further to urge Nigerians to get their PVC and aggressively support the candidate of their choice during the 2019 elections.
Sharing a photo of Davido on Instagram, the actress wrote on her Instagram handle: “Who he’s campaigning for and why is immaterial and beside the point.
“The way I see it, if a quarter of us got involved and pursued our political preferences with as much passion, single-mindedness, loyalty, doggedness and “we die here” fervour that @davidoofficial has displayed and sustained over the last several days, it’s safe to say that the last 2 decades probably wouldn’t have gone down the way they have and we probably wouldn’t be in the current socio-political situation we are in.
“It doesn’t matter how cerebral or articulate you are; backseat driving and armchair political analysis don’t change a thing.”
“Everyone is analysing what A, B, C and D are doing, the real question is what are you doing? How are you getting involved? What is your political preference and how are you ensuring that you are effectively represented?”
“Alas, classic Nigerianese, you no go do, person wey gree do will be damned for doing… Na so!”
“Davido has found his “why”. I am PVC ready currently on the lookout for my “why”. A candidate whose politics I agree with, who I feel I can trust.”
