A Nigerian Lady has narrated how her contact lens almost blinded her after she was smoking shisha at a club.
“Please every girl on my snap, list to this: No matter what you do, please don’t wear contact lens and smoke shisha unless you’re going to be extra careful. About a week ago, my contact lens almost melted inside my eyes”
“It was just God that saved me, it took me like 30 minutes to remove the contact lens from my eye when I got home… Little did I know that it was almost melting inside my eyes, But I later removed it though, but the contact lens spoilt”
“In other news, let’s all be very careful please when wearing lens. Don’t be in close contact with smoke or fire… a word they say is enough for the wise”.
Another Nigerian has been killed in South Africa, bringing the number of those killed since January 2016 to 121.
Mr Chibuzo Nwankwo, 42-year-old Enugu State indigene, was shot in the early hours of Friday at a local bar in Kempton Park, Johannesburg, following a disagreement with an unknown person.
The Nigerian community in South Africa on Saturday confirmed the killing of Nwankwo.
The community said that Nwankwo`s death brings to 121 the number of Nigerians killed in South Africa since January 2016.
Mr Habib Miller, the Publicity Secretary of the Nigerian Union in South Africa, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on the telephone from Pretoria on Saturday.
“The deceased, a patron of the bar, got drunk and started harassing a female worker.
“Information available to the union said that Nwankwo was chased out by security personnel, but he kept on coming back; became very aggressive and rude before the ugly incident occurred,’’ he said.
Miller said that the South African police later intervened and arrested the murder suspect.
“A murder case has been opened and investigation has started. We call on Nigerians to be calm and allow the law to take its course,” Miller said.
He said the union was against any form of violence, adding that it would monitor the case to ensure that justice prevailed. (NAN)

Veteran-retired Nollywood actress, Regina Askia and her beautiful daughter, Stephanie Hornecker were both pictured together with the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi at a recent event in US.
Chief Superintendent of Police and Police Public Relations Officer, Zone 2, comprising Ogun and Lagos State, Ifedolapo Badmus has opened up on the outcry against SARS revealing the outcry is over-hyped on social media.
Read excerpts from her interview with Vanguard below:
Well, the issue of this squad called Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, and its operational model has been over flooded basically on the social media platforms. The #EndSARS# started with a group of individuals that, due to their own personal experience or encounter with the operation, started the campaign. They propelled it with social media, escalating the whole issue negatively.
On their achievements
From the name, it is simple. Their duty is to combat violent crime in the society. So far, they are doing what is expected of them and also doing it well. They have been able to combat serious crimes. At least in the Lagos and Ogun State zone that I cover, there are notable incidents they successfully tackled. There’s this notorious criminal called TK in Lagos who terrorised banks and killed people around 2015 and thereabout. His reign of terror was very fierce.
The SARS unit was able to bring him down. Since then, bank robbery has reduced under SARS’ watchful eyes. Another one was the case of Evans the kidnapper and the kidnapping era. With all his sophisticated model of operation, SARS subdued him and others. Now, with all these laudable deeds by SARS, no one has come up to say, improve SARS and its personnel.
Nobody had also brought up #ThankyouSARS# campaign, but for a little blunder which we are also fighting to curtail within the organization, everyone is screaming ‘EndSARS.’ There are other crimes they are preventing from happening proactively. No one is talking about that. We are not saying that there are no issues within, but the truth is that social media users have over hyped the problem. All these are been addressed appropriately.
On the alarming number of SARS brutalisation reports..
We are aware that bad news sales faster than good news. People have been feigning SARS attack on the social media. I am a Zonal Public Relations Officer of the Force and I have noticed that people deforms information even when there is no confrontation at all. Most people somehow, do this to seek relevance on the social media. Even some celebrities are doing it.
The issue has spiraled to the other members of the Police Force: when a normal Policeman did anything uncalled for, they tag it SARS. This kind of act is sending a negative picture to the international community about Nigerian Police. We don’t have any other country other than Nigeria, and whatever we do reflects on us a people. The negative effects rub off on us too as Policemen.
When we are outside the country, they see us as corrupt officers due to social media postings. I have spoken to stakeholders in this #Endsars# campaign group, advising them that there are ways and manners the goal can be achieved without using social media platform to escalate the issue. SARS integrity has been projected in a negative form abroad, and even some people are afraid to visit home with the insinuation that SARS will attack them.
Former Big Brother Naija Housemates, Cee-C and Leo are said to be ‘dating’.. But these are just rumours, as neither of them have come out to either confirm or deny the rumours.
The duo apparently, had their first hosting duty together, and they looked absolutely stunning.
The lovely pair were the host of a beauty pageant event last night in Calabar. Lanre DaSilva Ajayi made Cee-C’s stunning dress.
Contrary to those claims, Melaye’s relatives and many senators have told SaharaReporters that he was never kidnapped but only staged a walk into a bush to avoid being charged before a Kogi High Court.
Although Dino Melaye, the senator representing Kogi West, resurfaced on Friday to claim he “spent 11 hours in the wilderness”, SaharaReporters can confirm that he was never kidnapped.
Melaye was scheduled to be arraigned on Thursday before the Magistrate court in Abuja for alleged gunrunning, but the trial could not hold due to the claims by Senator Ben Bruce, quoting Melaye’s brother, that he had been abducted by unknown gunmen.
On Friday, he wrote on Twitter: “I thank God once again for escaping another dangerous attack. I also thank Nigerians for their prayers and show of Love. Spent 11 hours in the wilderness traumatized but God preserved me. God is the best and in whom ONLY I trust. They will continue to try. WE SHALL OVERCOME!!!”

A Nigerian man on Twitter revealed that he flew his mom, to the United States, and she just couldn’t stop crying and praying for him.
According to Twitter user @IamEtubo, his Nigerian mom cried all night and wouldn’t stop praying because she thought it was dream. His tweets reads;
“Guys!! Yesterday was the happiest day of my life! I brought my mom to UNITED states!! She cried all night and wouldn’t stop praying. She couldn’t sleep as she thought it was a dream!!! See ehn! My mom suffered, I told her it’s just the beginning.”
“Update!!!! Mum playing candy crush on her iPhone”

A three-month-old baby has died after being left in a hot car when his mother forgot to drop him off at nursery.
Aiden Miller’s father Aaron revealed that the boy’s mother only realised something was amiss when she finished her shift and wanted to enter her car but could smell his body.
He told Wave TV: ‘She said she opened the car door and was like “what is that smell?” and she noticed Aiden was still in the back seat.’
Police said emergency personnel received a call seeking medical aid for an unresponsive infant outside a business. They are now investigating the death.
Aiden was pronounced dead at a hospital in the city just north of Louisville, Kentucky. Mr Turner said the child’s mother was supposed to drop their two children off at different daycare centres.
The mother dropped her daughter off, but Aiden remained in the car’s back seat in the car park outside her workplace.
He added: “I still don’t understand how that happened. Obviously it happens. It just happened in my family. It doesn’t get any closer to home than this.
“Keep in mind that that baby is the number one priority. It is inexcusable for any kid to have to go through and for parents to have to lose a child like this.”
A Chinese woman Li Dandan, was on Thursday, July 26, found not guilty of drug trafficking by Hong Kong Court after three years of uncertainty.
Hong Kong prosecutors said the single mother, now 33, had trafficked 1,934 grams of methamphetamine, a drug more commonly known as Ice, worth HK$580,000 (US$73,900).
On November 7, 2015, Li was intercepted at Hong Kong International Airport while en route to Malaysia to help deliver clothing samples for her Nigerian boyfriend identified as IK, who said he would set up business in her home province of Guangdong.
The drugs were found stored in a hidden compartment sewn into the linings of her backpack.
However, the Guangzhou native claimed she had been conned to make deliveries for her Nigerian boyfriend, whom she had trusted.
“I dated this Nigerian man because he did not smoke or drink. He struck me as a hardworking person. I could not believe he was a drug trafficker.”
Meanwhile, Li’s counsel, Leung Chun-keung, argued it was possible his client did not know about the hidden compartment as she was not professionally trained like customs officers to detect abnormalities in bag linings.
In these photos taken yesterday, Li Dandan pulled her mother in a tight embrace as soon as she emerged from a Hong Kong court’s cell holding unit, free at last from a drug trafficking case hanging over her head for three years.
Beside them stood prison chaplain Father John Wotherspoon, who had waited anxiously for Li’s release, having spent the past two years helping the Guangzhou native prove her innocence.
“I’m very happy,” he said tearfully after learning of Li’s acquittal. “I’m hoping her case can help the other drug mules appeal.”
Wotherspoon since 2013 has been working on a “name and shame” project, identifying and exposing drug lords operating through and in the city. His efforts came as he travelled the world to help drug mules facing trial.
Wotherspoon said Li was highly vulnerable in light of her divorce.
“So when he offered her a relationship, she trusted him,” he said. “She thought he was a real boyfriend.”
To help prove her innocence, Wotherspoon travelled to Malaysia, Bangkok, Thailand, and Guangzhou to track down IK, with the Nigerian’s picture in hand.
He visited the restaurant and hotel where they stayed together, found his address in Malaysia, and passed on the information to Hong Kong police. At trial, he testified for the defence as a character witness.
The Roman Catholic priest claimed about 20 mainland women had fallen victim to African drug lords over the past decade – and Li was one of them.
Celebrity best friends, actress Genevieve Nnaji and supermodel Oluchi Onweagba are in Venezia, Italy, on a “mini friendscation” and judging from the photos shared on their respective Instagram pages, they are having a helluva time there.
The lovelies look all shades of stunning as they pose for the cameras in their lovely casual summer outfits – Genevieve shows off some thighs and we’re definitely here for it.
It’s been around eight months since Adesua Etomi and Banky W officially tied the knots but it’s apparent that Banky’s romantic side hasn’t diminished since then.
The musician, according to his lovely wife, still buys her flowers for no reason – a romantic gesture that so many find unnecessary after they’ve made their union official.
An elated Adesua took to her Insta story to show off the flowers her hubby got for her.
“Roses and lillies. He still buys flowers for me for no reason at all”, she captioned the video
It sure must have been a thing of wonder which public toilet cross-dresser, Bobrisky would use if he were to come across any.
Well, the effeminate has in a new video shared on his page, revealed that if he were to come across any, he’d definitely use that of the female.
He shares this among others qualities being attributed to females – he says during airport search, he allows only women to touch him so as to avoid sexual harassment.
Adesua Etomi recently did a photoshoot with Genevieve Magazine and she has been releasing photos from the shoot.
Sharing this new photo on her IG page, she wrote:
Peace. Serenity.
In her interview, Adesua charms with her wit, intelligence, beauty, and talent as she shares her thoughts on married life, space travel and so much more.
Read excerpts from her interview below:
If you could, at this very moment, go anywhere – with no limits – where would you go and why?: I’d go to space. I’m very curious about the things that I can’t see and things I haven’t experienced. I know that there are many places on earth but I’m very curious about space and particularly envious of people that have been. They’ve experienced what most people have never – and will never – experience.
Do you agree that if you share your private life with the rest of the world, it is no longer yours alone?: I don’t necessarily agree with that because it depends on what is consistently shared. People share what they are comfortable with and withhold what they’d rather keep private. I can see the rationale behind it, but I don’t think it’s so black and white.
Religious leaders in Lagos might be integrated into the salary structure of Lagos State as the government seeks to re-orientate its residents.
The Lagos State Government has announced plans to engage some religious leaders, including pastors and imams, and place them on a salary structure.
The commissioner disclosed that the state government would continue to interact with religious leaders, and tasked them to be above board and encourage their followers to shun corruption.
He said: “We shall be willing to even engage many of them by making provision for their salaries so that they can assist government to re-orientate the people for good.
“Imams and Pastors are believed to be men of God. So we need all of you to help us to encourage the right values in the society; particularly in the area of accountability and anti-corruption.
“We must remember that the Almighty Allah will ask all of us to render account of our deeds in the hereafter. So, the Imams and other religious clerics should lead us in the right direction because they are our leaders.”

A cross-section of final year students of the Kwara State Polytechnic, were, yesterday, brutalized by a fellow student who goes around claiming to be a soldier (pictured above left).
According to reports, the self-acclaimed soldier and also a final year student, Simeon Iduma, saw the students celebrating the completion of their studies, around 10am at the Institute of Technology, and mobilized his fellow soldiers to deal with them.
Meanwhile, 23 Nigerian soldiers are yet to be accounted for after Boko Haram insurgents ambushed a military convoy at Boboshe village in Bama local government area of Borno.
5 officers, 18 soldiers and 8 trucks were missing after the attack which occurred early on Saturday.
NAN learnt that the military, acting on intelligence, mobilised troops in a convoy of 11 trucks to clear the insurgents from the deserted village.
The Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB), Bengaluru on Wednesday, July 25, apprehended a Nigerian national with 155.5 grams of cocaine which was being transported from Mumbai to the city.
The accused identified as Ozy Chukwudu, 30, was intercepted by the NCB sleuths when he disembarked from a sleeper bus from Mumbai to Bengaluru.
With specific information of cocaine smuggling, the NCB team was waiting for his arrival from Mumbai.
Chukwudu, who did not have a passport and other documents, was carrying a polythene bag with 11 capsules which contained cocaine.
The drug was brought to Mumbai by an unidentified man hiding it in his stomach and was later handed over to Chukwudu to be brought to Bengaluru.
According to a press release by the NCB, Bengaluru, the value of the contraband is said to be around Rs 93 lakh in the international market.
“Based on examination, he was arrested under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act,” said Sunil Kumar Sinha, zonal director, NCB, Bengaluru.
He was produced before the court yesterday, Thursday, July 26.
A thief walked into an office recently and stole a worker’s iPhone while all other workers were looking at him and not one of them noticed.
The man walked into Angel Homes and Lettings, on London Road in Southend, pretending to ask for directions – in his hand was a large map and with it, he expertly stole an iPhone lying in plain sight.
He leaned over the desk of an employee as he asked for direction, and as he did, he placed the map over the phone. As employees helped to direct him, he deftly lifted the phone under the map and held it with the map hiding it.
It wasn’t until after he left the office that the employee realized his phone was missing. When they looked through a CCTV footage, they discovered how the man they thought they were helping had played a fast one on them.
The letting agency shared the footage of the incident as a warning to others.
“We will be eternally grateful if anyone can identify him,” the agency wrote. “It appears he has been doing the same thing around lots of local businesses so please beware.”
A 42-year-old woman identified as Tracey Kutluol, has been camptured on camera in a video which shows the moment she claims she was struck by lightning as she filmed a storm from the upstairs window of her home, screaming and repeatedly shouting ‘I’ve been hit by lightning’ in the dramatic footage filmed on her mobile.
According to Dailymail UK, Kutluol, escaped without injury, which she credits to a new phone cover she had clipped to her iPhone 7 plus earlier that day.
The video footage opens with a series of dramatic flashes and thunderclaps as Kutluol films from an upstairs window. At one point, a voice can be heard joking ‘I might get electrocuted’. There follows another warning to be careful – which is brushed away with the remark: ‘You like a storm.’
Seconds later there is an enormous flash and massive bang followed by a scream from Tracey as she drops the phone. At least one other person can be heard giving a prolonged scream.
Kutluol can then be heard sobbing over and over: ‘I’ve been hit by lightning’ before the clip cuts out.
She has revealed that she had escaped without injury but was very shocked by her brush with death.
She said:
‘The phone is working fine with not one mark on the case. I had a tingling in my hand and arm for a bit. The phone case I got yesterday morning and it’s got a pop socket attached which is rubber…so we think it’s hit the rubber
I’m still in shock…I had to try keep everyone calm. I had my 10-year-old screaming for the cat…my pal having a panic attack and my 14-year-old daughter thinking the house was going to blow up.
‘I told them all to go down stairs to my bedroom as we live in a 3-level with the living room on the top. Then we went to each room and pulled all the plugs out ‘
24 hours after reports of his kidnap was reported by Nigerian Senator, Ben Murray Bruce, Nigerian lawmaker, Dino Melaye has surfaced saying,
‘I thank God once again for escaping another dangerous attack. I also thank Nigerians for their prayers and show of Love. Spent 11 hours in the wilderness traumatized but God preserved me. God is the best and in whom ONLY I trust. They will continue to try’.
However, Nigerians are not buying the ‘kidnap’ story and social media is currently on fire with mixed reactions to his story.
See some reactions below,
After ‘kidnapping’ and releasing yourself? You are one of Nigeria’s main problems and the God, that you use his name to support your continuous lies, will answer our prayers shortly. You are a man of no honour. A disgrace not only to Nigeria, but the black race in General.
Dino didn't get the attention he thought he would get from the public….. Baba came out from the hideout when hungry catch am ?? pic.twitter.com/S1R0VjQRrp
Honorable distinguish senator, welcome back sir. Keep making big mockery of our judicial system and acting action film. We will rid ourselves of you very soon. Sheyb you no wan get sense ni ??? pic.twitter.com/nR6U1QSu2R
@dino_melaye is the reason why being young alone is no yardstick for having sense or being a good leader. This guy became a legislator in his 30s. Look at him now. Shame!
Dino Melaye is the first high profile person to escape from "KIDNAPPERS" within 24hours in Nigeria even his laywer (Mike)could not pull out such stunt when he was kidnapped.Kwatinue
Congratulations on your escape from kidnappers, @dino_melaye
They can try but won't succeed.
You will keep standing strong, and speaking for the 'masses.'
Don't mind the naysayers who say you're faking. They're haters. Do they think it's easy to fake a kidnap?
Smh.

FLASH: Senator Dino Melaye @dino_melaye not kidnapped, he spoke to relatives and some Senators assuring them he’s hiding in the “bush” to avoid being charged to court and that he will reappear disheveled in coming days. pic.twitter.com/OswGH5m9ey
"I spent 11 hours in the wilderness as God saved me from kidnappers" @dino_melaye
*I am lost for words. Seriously? Now I believe that so called siege on @bukolasaraki's residence was part of a larger scam. This guys don't care if Nigeria burns. It is ridiculous pic.twitter.com/ikMMq6wJ1T
What if @dino_melaye have been sponsoring all the attacks on his constituency projects and masterminded his kidnap to evade appearance, all in the name of garnering public sympathy from some Nigerians?
Drama king, Dino Melaye has announced his return on twitter barely 24 hours after claims he was abducted surfaced online. Will he be 'abducted' again on the next date he is expected to appear in court? We wait as the drama continue to unfold.
From Police blocking Saraki. APC senators & HOR decamping to PDP. Kwankwaso drinking kunu with Buhari at night & broke his heart in the morning. Dino Melaye kidnapping & releasing himself. Shehu Sanni acting like double agent. Ortom to PDP. Nollywood will be jealous of Pollywood
My uncle @dino_melaye is alive and well, I can finally sleep. The man singlehandedly fought "dangerous" kidnappers and freed himself. We experience miracles like this when elections are near. To God be the glory pic.twitter.com/AG13kONtX7
