Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, 40, revealed today that she has never voted before in the country’s election and neither has she ever tried to.
She made this revelation after collecting her Permanent Voter’s Card, PVC, today. Sharing a photo of herself with her PVC at the collection centre, she thanked Debola Williams for encouraging her to get her PVC and carry out her civic duty.
She wrote:
Today I went to get my PVC. This is a Big deal for me. I’ve Never Voted or tried to. Phew…it’s taken a lot to get here for me. Thanks my bro @debolalagos for picking me up and @mipad100 for ensuring I go through with this. As a kid, my Mum beat me mercilessly for thinking of going near a voting point. There was violence and some neighbours died… Never broken out of that experience till today.
The whole exercise took barely 15mins and was very peaceful. Phew!

Olakunle Churchill’s younger brother, has taken to social media to call out actress Tonto Dikeh for trying to tarnish the image of his brother.
Recall Tonto Dikeh had earlier called out her ex-husband, Olakunle Churchill for squatting in her house after their marriage because he did not have a place of his own.
Churchill’s brother who is not pleased with the statement took to his Instagram page to blast Tonto Dikeh.
“I vividly recollect the day I met you on my birthday with your friend while we were celebrating the Benz’s my brother bought.
“Even at that period we met you, you were in a messy debt, embarrassingly owning your online shopper some money, so bad that you had no money to pay and you had to burn her bag and shoes.
“It was that same period you told my brother about the debt and followed him to Ghana and he left me in Nigeria even though I came all the way from London.
“Regardless of your bad reputation, someone was still proud of you.
“What exactly is your gain ? Are you trying to scare young girls off marriage because of your hidden agenda?
“You are saying my brother squatted with you ? How? How many houses has he got to be squatting?
“I’m very ashamed of you!! Have you bought a land before in your village? What do you have ? you’d be deceiving people speaking in rubbish tongue!
“Running after small boys and all the 70 years sugar daddies. Please note that the wives of the old men are complaining for Christ sakes.
“Lady, my brother has been ballin long before you dreamt of coming to Lagos from your village.
“We do not boast but we are from a very comfortable background! You serial blackmailer, he’s not contesting for any election, so leave him the hell alone!
“I remember how you broke my moms house you and bit my arm I ignored it. Madam, just leave us the hell alone ! WE DO NOT WANT TO BE ATTACHED TO YOU!
“This man did not touch you neither did he push but you lied because you feel you are a celebrity ! Celebrity my ass with no income !
Is it not this same man you followed to his place in Ghana when you sharply got pregnant, perhaps he should have left you as a baby mama but he still honoured you by putting a ring in that your dirty finger!
“One thing I learnt is hoes will be hoes ! You can’t be saved ! I know how many times he traveled back and fourth because of you!
“You complained about life bitterly and I am sure people remember when you wanted to commit suicide and how much my brother tried to keep you alive because you said you couldn’t get pregnant as well!
“At least one man was proud of you even when you thought you brought him fame !
“The real truth is anyone you roll with automatically gets a bad name !
“My brother who stood by you and this is what he gets? The truth is that even if you get married to an okada man, everybody would know him and call him a Balu !
“You are such a fake actor, surprisingly claiming he squatted at your place? HOW??
“Someone that bought you an expensive ring ?
“Someone that bought you a 32million Naira worth of car,
“the Prado Jeep you sold recently to live up to the social media hype.
“It’s high time you started saying the truth. Don’t forget you lived in our uncles house in Texas, who is a surgeon for safe delivery reasons and the wife is a nurse.
“Even my mom travelled to Texas to help and ensure a safe delivery ! All for the love of family! My Uncle who lives in London also a surgeon travelled to meet you guys in the states !
“You such an ingrate, all the receipts of the money my brother sent to you 55$ dollars receipt can be produced.
“The house you lived in which you claimed was bought by you, was actually rented and eventually expired, then he had to move you to Abuja and that was how you relocated to a new house and a new car.
“You are the one that has done wrong!
“You’ve done what is unacceptable!
“Then you turned it to blackmail!
“You felt he would be loyal with that action of yours, you tried to blackmail him like you done to other people !
“You tried to sponsor a lot of people to say things against my brother and some refused.
“Ain’t you ashamed of yourself? He has move on already
“Also note dear, he’s not contesting for any political position, I learnt you were there when they asked him to contest for governorship, please, he’s not contesting do not worry, worry about your life!
“Incase people don’t know, nobody supports Tonto Dikeh, the father never did, Her siblings despise her as such did not support her, the traditional rulers in her Community was against her.
“Even when she does not support her Portharcourt people, her family still in keeps in touch with us because we have greater gift which is better than money and fame and that is BABY KING !
“Stop using my brother to make money and be relevant go back to Nollywood acting, stop using real life for films !
“Go back to your colleagues, the ones you offended go back and beg them stop using my brother for you unnecessary drama.
“The wives of the old men you’re sleeping with are complaining. They warned you at the court after you took the child from the house while claiming domestic violent.
“The Court warmed you because you wanted to run away with the child to the states and process your papers ! Such an opportunist!
“The court gave him access to his child also told you to change the boys name from what you changed it to (from Dikeh back to Churchill)and your still playing cards
“Can you marry a trouble maker?
“If he was a trouble maker he’d have broken your jaw
“You are bringing out 10 years ago relationship, telling them to blackmail him
“Telling them what to write against me?
“Why didn’t your family side you?
“Why didn’t your friends side you ?
“Is it a do or die affair? Just 6months marriage you already gathered all of these allegations.
“Why not let him go since you don’t want him? Now you are up with STD allegations. Were you infected with STD when you gave birth or after ? Liar !
“As a powerful person I am actually surprised he hasn’t done anything. My brother invested millions and he invested in your foundation even when you weren’t there.
“How much do you have ? Are you with the government or working for them? …. stop the fake life!
“Where’s your talent in acting
“You’re now using real life to act speaking in tongues and all. Stop using Churchill’s life
“You need deliverance and rehab that was what we initially wanted to do before you started trouble.
“My brother has never talked about his life He’s not fake, he does not show off ! Do you see any of his cars on the gram? I guess it’s called good upbringing .
“In conclusion, I have come to a realization that Ms TONTO WIGO DIKEH IS A FAILED EXPERIMENT TO HUMAN MUTATION! SHE SHOULD BE IN A HOME!”
Earlier, we reported Nkechi Blessing Sunday got into a fight with fellow actress, Juliet Ibrahim after the former got a ‘hot slap’ from Comedian Arole that left a mark on her face on set.
Not long after, she shared the video and her reaction on Instagram and Ghanaian actress Juliet Ibrahim commented on the post saying Nkechi should not have stopped the Director.
According to her, stopping the shoot means she would have to take the slap one more time, “I’d rather endure, and after the scene, I’ll go and cry.”
However, Nkechi replied:
With dis kind of slap,Den one Idiot said am not suppose to cut d Director Because am a professional?…Aunty better don’t even come near me??♀️??♀️Slap that left me deaf for 10mins? @officialarole I love you Still tho❤
Juliet Ibrahim has now responded back to her, she fired back in a long post.

He really has come a long way tho – look at this youngster, sagging his baggy jeans and rocking checkers while chilling in the studio about six years ago.
Asides from the fact that he’s aged physically, his style game has also changed drastically as he’s familiar now with more of diamond encrusted accessories and designer wears.
Well, in the spirit of throwbacks, the Nigerian singer is featured in the social media culture as we see him here six years back in a recording studio… with a cigarette stick in his hand tho.
Miss. Nkiruka Jane Nnaji, a graduate of Nnamdi Azikwe University from Amorji Akpugo in Enugu State, who apparently, was awaiting her youth service before she was attacked with acid, has lamented following the attack.
According to the lady, the acid attack occurred on April 11, 2017 in Port-harcourt around 8pm while she was on her way back from the cosmetic shop she was managing.
She wrote:
“It happened on April 11, 2017 in Port-harcourt. After my graduation I went into cosmetic business; I got a very small shop where I was managing. I was coming back from my shop that fateful day, at about 8:00 pm; I was walking to the house when I started hearing a male voice calling ‘Chi-chi’. I thought it was somebody that wanted to toast me; I thought it was a way of attracting my attention.”
“I didn’t really give him any attention. When he kept calling that name I felt it could be a way of taking my phone or robbing me so I put my phone in my bag and in less than three seconds somebody tapped me on the shoulder.”
“Immediately I turned, he poured the acid substance which was in a small container on me and I screamed. He ran away while I was screaming and shouting for help. People came out, poured me water and eventually they took me to the hospital that very night.
“I was in the hospital in Port-harcourt there for two weeks before I was referred to National Orthopaedic Hospital Enugu. When I went to Orthopaedic, the next day they went on strike; I went into coma because then the wound had already been infected because the hospital where they took me wasn’t a burns hospital. So they did not take proper care of the wound so it was bringing forth pus and was smelling.
So I went into coma and was rushed to a private hospital, Hill-top; it was there I had two surgeries and stayed there for 35 days after paying over N1m.
“I was taken back to Orthopaedic, by then they had called off the strike; it was there that I had the remaining three surgeries. So altogether I have gone through 5 plastic surgeries in the cause of this acid attack.
“Eventually I lost the two ears; I still have a contracture on the neck, and then the left hand, and then the hair at the back.
“I don’t know because I never quarreled with anyone. If I had quarreled with anyone may be by now I may have arrested the person. So I don’t really know. I take this to be a mistaken identity because the name he was calling wasn’t my name. My name is not Chi, or Chinyere or anything related to that. And the person didn’t wait to see the face of the Chinyere he was calling. So maybe he took me to be Chinyere and poured me that substance”.
“Even that very night they say they caught the person. But they thought he stole my phone because they heard me screaming. They saw him with an android phone and they confronted him accusing him of having snatched the phone from the girl that was screaming. He said no it’s his phone. They said ok, if it’s your phone, call the number. They dialed the number and it rang and they gave him back the phone and he left. So it was while I was in the hospital the person brought the number to me. I called the police and gave my statement but they asked me to pay N70,000 to track the number alongside other expenses. I didn’t have much money and I needed even more for my treatment so couldn’t raise the money. After my statement they left and I didn’t hear from them again till today”.
Upon her condition, Jane has refused to question God. “I know my God has a reason for whatever happens. He is still my God and has seen me through even when doctors gave me 30% chances of survival. I am grateful to Him for keeping me alive.”
am soliciting for funds. I am begging the public and the government in any way they can assist me so that I can be able to go for this surgery. This surgery is just my life. I know I will not be ok, but at least after the surgery I will be near normal. I will be able to have my ears back and the stiff neck will be released. At least I can have myself back and then know what to do with my life. All I am pleading is just a way of helping me. I am really pleading and soliciting for this fund so that I will be able to go for the surgery in India.”
President Muhammadu Buhari on Thursday urged Nigerians to stop glorifying thieves but should treat them with disdain for bringing hardships on others.
Buhari said this in a Sallah message made available to journalists by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, to mark the end of Ramadan.
“He (Buhari) also urged ordinary Nigerians to stop glorifying thieves by treating them with disdain for bringing hardships on others,” the statement said.
The President also thanked Nigerians for their patience with his administration, saying reforming a country that was pushed into near decay on account of corruption would come with teething pains.
He, however, assured them that their pains were temporary.
Buhari further told Nigerians that their sacrifices would not be in vain.
“These pains are temporary. The APC administration which I am privileged to lead is beholden to the ordinary Nigerians and will leave no stone unturned to make their security, welfare and happiness our priority,” the President said.
Buhari stressed the importance of putting the virtues of Islam into practice beyond the Ramadan season.
While congratulating Muslims on completing “this spiritually significant month of sacrifice”, the President urged them to reflect on the importance of Ramadan in becoming good ambassadors of Islam at all times.
He said, “Religion should be the moral compass for all believers in their public and personal lives.
“If the people allow the teachings of their religions to influence their conducts, problems such as corruption, which diverts public funds to private pockets, would have been eliminated in the society.”
He regretted, however, that “selfishness and greed have overcome people’s conscience so much that they don’t have moral inhibitions in the pursuit of their greed.”
He added, “It is impossible to separate morality from religion, and removing this connection encourages corrupt leaders and other exploiters to commit atrocities against the society.
“I always wonder why any true believer, be they politicians, civil servants or businessmen, would seek to make profits from the misfortunes of others.”
An Ivorian lady almost killed herself after a sex tape which she featured in was leaked online – according to trending reports, the young Ivorian lady who has been identified as Iness Boitrin tried to kill herself but failed in her attempt due to the vigilance of one of her family members who prevented her from doing so.

An unnamed young Nigerian lady has gathered herself to recount the 4-month hotel romance she had with a young man who, while staying in the hotel, lied to her that he has issues in the United States, but is working on it, which is why he’s staying in the hotel.
Nigerian relationship adviser and psychologist, Joro Olumofin shared the story of the young girl who fell into the hands of a player from Edo State who kept scamming and lying to her.

There was a mild drama following a scuffle between a police officer and a married woman with a baby on her back.
According to reports, the feud between both parties started in Mokola area of Ibadan after the policeman was allegedly warned not to cause an accident because of the N50 fee.
The policeman was said to have harassed the woman who was on a bike with her baby in a bid to collect money from the bike man. The woman cautioned him and received a big slap for that.

A Nigerian lady identified as Mrs Reen Udeze, has taken to her social media platform, Instagram, @diary_of_a_pilot_wife, to share some lovely pictures from their stunning pre-wedding photo shoot and had nothing but good words and accolades for her hubby.
She used the opportunity to talk about her husband’s focus and attentiveness and the real reasons why she chose to marry her pilot lover.
“Why I Chose Mr Pilot”
As difficult as it is to convince some people that it wasn’t just an attraction and it wasn’t just a meet today and fall in love thing, I’ll stand firm to say, I chose Him for reasons I’ll be sharing.
God’s will: I didn’t marry just who I love, I married the will of God. As difficult as it is to put it across to you and to convince, I wouldn’t have said Yes if it wasn’t the will of God (I’ll one day talk about how I knew it’s God’s will).
He misses me and shows it: He knows it that long stint of radio silence wasn’t good for me and he made sure he showed he miss me, I had a phone where I had 360 of his messages; when he was busy, he dropped messages and when we see, he hugs me and means it.
He appreciates me: I know how easy it is to see the things that haven’t been done than the ones that have, not for Him!. He appreciates and says thank you for the ones I couldn’t do.
He supports my dreams: As big as my thoughts are, he supports me and thinks along with me. He tries to find out the deep passions of my heart and is always willing to talk about how to get there and willing to help me because he knows better that when I’m fulfilled, I’m a better woman and a better wife.
When he’s with me, he’s with me alone: I don’t fight with his phone for attention. I’ve seen put chats on mute for me, block numbers, turn off phone, ignore even emergencies. He makes every moment we spend together count.
He has eyes only for me: He began to understand that things like flirtation bring the self esteem of a woman down. He worked on himself for me. I am the only one he desires without a cloth; it makes me stronger and confident.
I didn’t marry just who I love but God’s will #Make18
In the process of trying not to live under God’s permissive will I met a PILOT. Truth is, I didn’t really care if it was God’s permissive will or not. I made my plans and began forcing God into accepting my plans. The very important thing I learnt during this process was not to plan and invite HIM(God) but to let him plan and invite me,no wonder Jesus was willing to say “Nevertheless, no my will but yours be done”
Being his girlfriend came with so many challenges and roles. I found out he lived his life on the go and sometimes was unavoidably away from me(even though we agreed to see every month). I just knew it would take strong commitment and a forgiving heart to get to the end of it especially when I know I was seeing a really young one that spent almost no part of his late teen age and early twenties with his parents.
Most people who have never dated or been married to a pilot, hold an assumption that all pilots have affairs or are untrustworthy. With good-looking crewmembers, long overnights in different cities, how could they not be unfaithful? Right? The fact is that yes pilots are constantly being placed in situations that could welcome cheating, but the reality is people are disloyal in their relationships regardless of their profession, and not all pilots fall under this general stereotype.
I realised I had to be a certain type of person, I must know how to go often on my knees, I must know how to learn to be alone, I must like to travel, I must have less trust issues and be a very confident woman. We had alot of fights, not necessarily because he was was wrong, but because it was my first Travel Person experience.
At some point, I knew God needed to work on me and He did. I had a different level of grace entirely
I then realised I needed to introduce somethings, I needed to do better, I couldn’t have just happy moments, I needed to focus more on positivity.
So here are some tips that got me here
1. PRAYER: I found a confidant in God, I was willing to share my fears, the girl I felt was a threat, the beautiful hostess I think liked him, his journey and most times I couldn’t pray, I lay and meditate and let the Holyspirit pray.
2. COMMUNICATION: I realized he spends more time travelling and sometimes, it creates communication challenges as he’s even behind schedule and during flights, he can’t be reached, he lands, I can’t talk to him sometimes because of different time zone. Lack of communication can cause insecurities or questions of what’s going on while on trips, it can also lead to relationships that don’t require regular check in and that doesn’t hold him accountable for his actions. I began regular checks and he got so used to it. He began calling often to let me know he landed safely, video calls became often too so I’m included in his plans, see how healthy he’s eating and talk him to sleep. In doing these, I built a healthy foundation to deal with distance .
3. FLEXIBILITY: My first year with him was the very first time I celebrated my birthday away from my real friends and family. I began to adjust my life around his schedule; I was ready for impromptu weekend getaways and little sacrifices of “can’t make it this week babes,I’ll love you to come”
4. GOOD TEAM: I have the most amazing friend, sister and parents ever, they knew I wasn’t gonna be available often. They were always willing to pack bags for travel.
5. HOBBY: I saw myself living just for him, and God of course so I began my violin classes again; so when he was away and I can’t talk to him, I just play.
6. CURIOSITY ABOUT HIS JOB: I began to expand my knowledge about his job and office. I read, I asked questions, I talked to his friends so when conversations came up, I had input in them.
7. CONFIDENCE: I got to realise he was used to getting whatever he wanted as long as he mentioned he was a pilot. My confidence level increased, I made him understand he had to work extra for me and I knew my worth.
8. RIVETING: I was a riveting person, I came to understand that he already had so much busy and boring time at work and being with me needed to give him a different form of exciting feeling to always look up to. I was crazy and willing to try out new things and was willing to switch to his kind of fun.
9. SPEECH THERAPY: I learnt to put words the best way ever, i learnt not to say,’do this’ but say ,’it would be nice if you do this.i learnt to speak less when upset.
Falmata Abubakar the mother of Abubakar Shekau, the leader of Boko Haram, granted her first media interview to VOA, saying she has not seen her son in 15 years.
The interview took placein the village of Shekau, Yobe state. The report published by VOA revealed that Mr Shekau’s late father was the Imam of the village Mosque before his death.
Ms Abubakar said she had no idea where her son was or his situation. “I don’t know whether he is dead or alive, only God knows, I have not seen him in the last 15 years,” she said.
She said Mr Shekau left the village for Maiduguri, the Borno state capital as a young boy in search of Islamic knowledge. She said he was an “almajiri boy” who walks around the streets of Maiduguri looking for food.
She said it was in the course of seeking Islamic knowledge that her son came into contact with the founder of Boko Haram, Mohammed Yusuf. She said the late Boko Haram leader was the one who indoctrinated her son.
“I did not set my eyes on him since he came into contact with Mohammed Yusuf,” she said. “I know he is my son, and everyone knows a mother’s love for her son, but our attitude to life is different,” she said.
She also said “He has put so many people in serious difficulty, I pray that God guides him right”. Ms Falmata said she will not curse his son, saying “he has chosen a path different from the one we put him on, only God knows what he has become now”.
Mr Shekau took leadership of the group after the death of its founder, Mr Yusuf, who was killed in police custody.
Members of the The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries who have been heavily criticized by Nigerians in time past for their “aggressive” mode of publicity, were recently spotted in action again.
This time around, the church members were seen holding an ‘acrobatic’ form of publicity in Warri, Delta state as members displayed different characters including those who sat on the wet ground.
Here are some pictures showing how the publicity went down.
Proud Father, Femi Fani Kayode took to Instagram to share an adorable photo of triplets with Precious Chikwendu as they returned home today after 3 weeks in the hospital.
Ragnar, Aiden, and Liam were born on the morning of May 25 but they were cleared to return home today.
The one time Aviation Minister wrote
“My handsome boys came home today with my wife Precious their beautiful mother. My first son Aragorn was so excited to receive his brothers, Ragnar, Aiden and Liam home for the first time. I thank God for all and my gratitude goes to my friend and brother Dr. John Idahosa, his beautiful wife and their wonderful team at DIFF Hospital, Abuja for all the special love and care. God bless you all.”

A new mother who stayed for a month without taking a bath after giving birth has shared her reason for doing it.
Terry Loong, said she chose not to shower for 1 month because it helped her bond with her son.
The 40-year-old said it’s called postpartum confinement, a practice she says is common in Asian culture, where a new mother does not leave the house, have visitors or, in some cases, bathe for a month following delivery.
The reason behind this practice is that it helps protect both mum and baby from infections, gives the mother a chance to recover and recharge, and allows the two uninterrupted bonding time.
Aesthetic doctor Terry admitted she “did smell of bodily fluids” but she said she didn’t care. She believes it helped her bond with little Matthew, free of any distractions, while giving her body the rest it desperately needed.
Terry, who is of Malaysian heritage and lives in Harrow, north west London, said:
I remember my mum having a period of confinement when I was little. I’m the oldest of five so I saw it a lot.
It is common in Asian culture. Some of my Chinese friends here in London have done it too but adapted it to what works for them, picking different parts of it.
I don’t know many people that did it fully, like me. The biggest thing is that people couldn’t believe I hadn’t showered.
It wasn’t pretty, but it was important. If I had another baby, I would definitely do it again.
A man cooked his foot and served it to a group of friends at a dinner party after being forced to have it amputated.
The bizarre incident happened two years ago but came to light this week after the amputee told his story on Reddit.
Around two years ago, he was seriously hurt in a motorcycle accident and despite a battle, medics were forced to amputate his foot.
He then asked to keep it, and after completing some paperwork, he took it home.
On July 10th, 2016, just three weeks after the accident, he invited 11 open-minded friends to a special meal.
Ten showed up. He served them apple strudel, quiche puff pastries, fruit tarts and chocolate cake with gin lemonade punches and mimosas.
Then the main dish was his amputated foot which he named “Foot Taco”
Narrating, the man said:
So my friends and I always had this joke, If you could try human flesh in an ethical and healthy way, would you. And we always said of course. Well the opportunity came up and I called them on it. Originally I wanted to have [my foot] taxidermied or freeze-dried. How cool would it be to have my freeze-dried or taxidermied foot standing around the house as a lamp or a doorstop or something?
All of this came out of the idea that it’s my foot.
It’s not going to be cremated and chucked into a landfill. It’s a part of me, and I want it back. Most hospitals have policies where they will release your body parts to you because of some religions where you have to be buried whole, so I just signed the paperwork.
My mom, who was helping me get back on my feet, so to speak, drove me back to pick it up.‘She doesn’t know I ate it, though. I went inside and the hospital gave me my foot in a red plastic biowaste bag. I brought it to the car and immediately put it in a cooler. It was pretty bizarre. I got back to my place and I froze it. I couldn’t find a taxidermist who would take me seriously and freeze-drying was too expensive.It would have been $1,200 (£900) to freeze dry the thing. If I had the money I would have done it.
Eventually, I decided to cast it in plaster to use as a doorstop, then capture a 3D rendering so I can make little keychains. When we got back to my house, I took the foot out, and it was so gross, man. It was covered in blood and had iodine all over it. After I cleaned it off, I was pleasantly surprised by how well-preserved it was.
Before we cast it, I quickly took a knife from my kitchen and cut a chunk off the top of my shin. The skin was already kind of off from the surgery, leaving a big chunk of muscle exposed. I just took the muscle. I put it in a plastic bag and put it in my freezer.
I invited 11 people. I said something like, ‘Remember how we always talked about how, if we ever had the chance to ethically eat human meat, would you do it? Well, I’m calling you on that. We doing this or what?’
Ten said yes. I guess we’re a weird group. The foot was the marinated overnight and sauteed it with onions, peppers, salt, pepper, and lime juice. It was later served on corn tortillas with a tomato sauce. People think it tastes like pork because in movies we hear it called “long pig.” But that term originated in places like Papua New Guinea, where they eat wild boar.
This particular cut was super beefy. It had a very pronounced, beefy flavor to it. The muscle I cut was tough and chewy. It tasted good, but the experience wasn’t the best.
It tasted like buffalo, but chewier. Super beefy and little fat. It’s way better than a hot dog or regular burger. Maybe equal with regular bacon, which is pretty decent. But nowhere near as good as butter seared sea scallops or a rare tenderloin seared in oil in a cast iron pan.

According to her post on IG, Afeez Agoro could have stopped growing in his 20s but Nigerian doctors didn’t know what was wrong with him.
“See who is coming on Linda Ikeji TV. Afeez Agoro, Nigeria’s tallest man! His story is incredible. He could have stopped growing in his 20s but Nigerian doctors didn’t know what was wrong with him and didn’t know what to do for him until he met US doctors. His story is coming as a docu-series.”

A lady took a photo of the dress above to her Nigerian tailor, she asked for a replica of the dress but what she got will leave you shocked.
She stated she didn’t understand why Nigerian tailors refuse to say no when a client asks if they can perfectly make a design..
In regards to her question, many Nigerian tailors who confirm that they can make a particular design might do so because they actually believe they can and want to give it a try.
Others, however, just say yes because they want to make money from delivering the service. These tailors are in the majority category and they have given really bad names to good fashion designers.
Nigerian tailors can never be honest sha. Simple ‘no ma i no fit do am’ 🙁 pic.twitter.com/EbPbfWYcMq

It may seem as though Davido is thinking of making his girlfriend, Chioma his wife in a new post he made on social media.
Not sure what the post was all about or what warranted him to be thinking of a wife at that moment but it is obvious he had Chioma on his mind.
He took to his snap to make the post writing;
“Nothing like a Wife that understands you”
Davido has just shown the world that he is really in love, it even got him thinking of marriage.
