Teddy A was born in Lagos before moving to the States, and he has four brothers.

Ahmad Salkida, the Nigerian journalist, formerly based in Dubai, said today that only 15 out of the remaining 113 Chibok schoolgirls, believed to be with their Boko Haram abductors are alive. He made the claim in series of tweets today, in which he provided a backgrounder to the abduction, exactly four years ago.
Salkida said the surviving 15 have been married off, indoctrinated and may no longer be interested in returning home. He advises government in negotiating for the release of the 15 girls to demand ‘proof of life’.
His tweets dealt with the botched attempts during the Jonathan era when the Boko Haram terrorists were willing to release the girls on swap deals and later developments.
Ahmad Salkida: says most of the 113 Chibok schoolgirls believed to be with Boko Haram have died.
Here is his story as picked from his Twitter handle @contactsalkida:
Four years ago, a middle ranking Boko Haram commander led dozens of fighters in search of food and other supplies in the remote town of Chibok. Like an afterthought, they saw a chance to abduct school girls in Girls Secondary School Chibok. The girls at the time were preparing for their exams.
The dozens of Boko Haram fighters faced no opposition during the abduction, as they struggled to convey their captives to the forest of Alagarno, the insurgent’s first war capital, which they named Timbuktu. It was in Timbuktu that they organised most of the horror we experience today.
Some of the girls were lucky to have escaped on their way to Timbuktu that night, because there were fewer fighters to hold more than 200 girls. At the beginning, the group didn’t know what to do with the girls, at least, not in the first one month of their captivity.
However, what many people did not know was that two weeks into the abduction, the Jonathan administration was already in touch with me for the peaceful release of the girls. By the way, I was in self-exile after pressure from the same Government.
I took an excuse where I was doing a menial job in the UAE (but still reporting the insurgency), to see the president, which was facilitated by Aliyu Gebi and Labaran Maku. By the 3rd of May, I was already on my way from Abuja to Madagali, Marwa and finally to a Boko Haram camp.
I got a proof of life for the president and another for the media in case I didn’t get back. The demands of Boko Haram then were simple. They wanted detained members taken to Damaturu and they will move the girls to Buni-Yardi for swap somewhere in between. There was no word on ransom
I was provided with full military escorts from Abuja to Damaturu. Government was supposed to make sure that 70 detainees were ready on my arrival in Damaturu to meet 30 there. The rest of the negotiating team was in Abuja making sure the prisoners were on a plane before my arrival.
On arrival in Damaturu, the military commander there was not briefed about my work. He was merely told to expect a VIP. At that time, the girls have been moved by Boko Haram, but there were no prisoners for exchange and I got a call from the former Chief of Defence Staff to abort the operation.
The president later said before me that he did not call off the swap. There was a credible window, but zero Will to rescue the girls. Boko were angry. I returned to the UAE to continue my hustle, but received invitations not only by the former administration, but the current government
Four out of five processes that I was involved in, we came close to a swap deal, but Government in most instances did not provide the platform I presented with the required expertise. And whenever Government dragged its feet, Shekau will shift the goal post.
I continued my reporting on the crisis, often critical of government and Boko Haram, with both sides raising concerns. For me, I am a reporter before anything else, many officials consider me as somebody who was too independent minded for a process that needs to be shrouded in secrecy.
Government began to look for alternatives to conclude what I’ve started and my former couriers stepped in as the primary ‘negotiators.’ It was a break for me because it is no longer negotiations, but mere transaction. Another reason was my insistence that the process must be domesticated
I was a prickle in the flesh of our leaders with my counter claims of official narratives. A day after I exclusively released a video of the girls, something I’v done in the past, I was declared wanted by same military that provided me with escorts, military aircraft for assignments
I was amazed to learn later that the terms that saw the release of some of the girls was unfavourable than what I presented, but as my friend will say, even if we come up with a cure for cancer, the war economy and elites would rather die than accept a cure from a talaka.
Today, my painstaking investigations on the #Chibokschoolgirls revealed that just a handful of the 113 #ChibokGirls are alive. Many of the girls have died as a result of cross fires and bombardments of the security forces that no doubt were intent on rescuing them.
I regret to state here that only 15 out of the 113 #Chibokgirls are alive today, based on my investigations in the last three months and we have already seen some of them in a video, which I exclusively obtained and was published on SR website.
What is the status of the remaining 15 girls as far as negotiations are concerned? My investigations also revealed that, they are no longer under the control of #AbubakarShekau. According to sources, they are now ‘married’ and only their ‘husbands’ can decide their fates.
If they are divorced or the men are killed that is when Shekau’s decision takes precedence, and in this instance, since the girls have been indoctrinated, their leader has no right to negotiate for their release, no matter the ransom offered, reliable multiple sources said.
It will be unbearable to share the names of the 15 that are alive here, this is the responsibility of Government. When I was involved, I regularly provided proof of life. Government must demand that to prove me wrong or stop negotiating for many of the girls that don’t exists.
The secrecy around the condition of the #ChibokGirls and most recent #DapchiGirls debacle by those involved is the reason people like me are out of the picture. The fact remains that under the present circumstances there is NO room for peace settlement.
The way out for these girls, is a military rescue or negotiate wt individual captors to release their ‘wives’ in return for some kind of deal, but this will mean death to these fighters bcz the terror group now sees the girls as part of their own and must be protected.
How comes there is little or no information about the girls and both the parents and campaigners are in the dark? Because, Govt resist independent reporting of the crisis, most of the reports are choreographed & Nigerians are also not ready to hear the truth or stand by it.
Reporting the #LakeChadCrisis is not just a job for me, Borno is my home, this crisis has affected me too. I’v invested 13yrs of my 18yrs journalism career to follow this story in a way no reporter or researcher has done, hence my knowledge of this crisis can’t be dismissed.
I’v risked my life and that of my family in the past and even now, not only to tell the story, but to play the role of a mediator and fact finder. But as soon as the FG found alternatives, my sacrifices got an official ridicule and I am being hounded.
I hold no other intention of doing this than the need to stir a debate to demand more insights and bring closure to the parents. The nation must not fail you from rescuing your daughters and also fail to tell you the truth.
My heartfelt condolences to the parents of the near 100 that have perished or have not returned home and apparently not with their captors. But you must always remember that your daughters were stronger than the rest of us that couldn’t do more to avert this catastrophe.”

Alex Iwobi has humbly admitted that he has difficulties in singing the Nigerian national anthem which he is yet to fully learn.
English club, Arsenal FC star and Nigerian super eagles player, Alex Iwobi has admitted that he can’t recite the lines of the Nigeria national anthem correctly.
Iwobi, who put the ball at the back of the net – an effect that saw the Super Eagles to the Russia World Cup against Zambia – made the revelation while being quizzed by Arsenal legend, Thierry Henry and Philadelphia Eagles star, Jay Ajayi.
Iwobi stated he did not know the words to the Nigerian national anthem too well, suggesting that he mouths along to the anthem when the camera was focused on him before the start of international matches.
He said:
I know it but I don’t know it well. When they are recording, the camera comes on you I know what to say. For the Nigerian viewers I do know it.”
The Hale End Academy product was also quizzed about scoring the goal that qualified the Super Eagles for the 2018 World Cup and he said: “When I scored I saw my parents in the crowd, I was almost crying. It was a nice feeling.”
On how nervous he was when he met Thierry Henry for the first time, Iwobi answered: “I met him when I was a kid for the first time, so was young, I was excited. I was in Arsenal academy. I was very young.’’
Asked if he watched the Super Bowl, Iwobi said: “Honestly no, honestly no. Sleep went to me.”
A quite dotting father has melted the hearts of many after a photo of himself with his daughter during her wedding went viral online.
The lovely bride, who hails from the northern part of the country was not able to hold back her tears after she was faced with the reality of finally leaving her parents for her husband.
Amina Gambo Muazu is seen in a new photo that’s melting hearts online, being consoled by her father as she cries during her wedding ceremony held at the weekend in Abuja.

Dbanj says despite him being married and growing grey hairs, most ladies still consider him as a sexy one.
The singer disclosed this in an interview with Saturday Beats and mentioned that he decided not to get rid of his grey hair because ladies have told him that they love it, adding that it is a sign that he has money.
D’banj said:
“I love the fact that I am having grey beard. In Africa, it is a sign of wisdom. I thought one had to be 50 years and above before getting it but recently, I learnt that it comes out when you are wise and have money.
So, it is obvious to the world that I have money and wisdom.
“I know I am already growing grey beard and I leave it alone because the ladies tell me that it is sexy.
I cannot speak for any other person but I still have my sex appeal. We were just on the red carpet together before coming to this VIP section and you noticed what happened. The ladies still flock around me despite being married.
You can count how many guys greeted me compared to a large number of ladies that came to me for pictures and just to talk to me.
I think it is the grace of God and the brand cannot change. It is not as if I am going to let go of this part of me. Yes, being married has changed a little thing about me but business remains business”.
President Buhari explains why Chibok Girls have not been released
President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday said the remaining girls abducted by terrorists from Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, four years ago were still in captivity because of some setbacks in the negotiation between the Federal Government and the Boko Haram sect.
He attributed the setbacks to what he described as internal disagreement among the abductors.
Buhari said this in a statement made available to journalists by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu.
The President said ;
“We are concerned and aware that it is taking longer to bring the rest of our daughters back home, but be assured that this administration is doing its very best to free the girls from their captors.
“Unfortunately, the negotiations between the government and Boko Haram suffered some unexpected setbacks, owing mainly to a lack of agreement among their abductors, whose internal differences have led to a divergence of voices regarding the outcome of the talks.
“We know that this is not the news parents want to hear after four whole years of waiting, but we want to be as honest as possible with you.
“However, this government is not relenting. We will continue to persist, and the parents should please not give up. Don’t give up hope of seeing our daughters back home again. Don’t lose faith in this government’s ability to fulfil our promise of reuniting you with your daughters.
“Don’t imagine for a moment that we have forgotten about our daughters or that we consider their freedom a lost cause.”
Buhari gave the assurance Nigerians that as long as he remained the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, the Chibok girls would never be forgotten and everything would be done to reunite them with their families. He also assured the parents of the schoolgirls that “their daughters will never be forgotten or abandoned to their fate, despite four long years since they were taken away by terrorists.’’

Nollywood actress, Ireti Osayemi’s decade old marriage to former Super Story production manager and later associate producer, Bakare Adeoye, which produced two kids, has reportedly crashed.
Though this wasn’t Bakare’s first marriage (he is said to have been previously married with children to show for it) his legal marriage to Ireti was almost heaven-on-earth.
But then, the marriage has crashed!
Friends and family members are reportedly trying to bring them together but the actress seems gone for good.
Already, Ireti, for many months, has moved out of the marriage and currently enjoys the favour of an Ilaro, Ogun State-based businessman who spoils her silly with luxuries and gifts.
The businessman, who is also a hotelier and big socialite is doing all he could to keep her. Though he is married, Ireti is the apple of his eye.
What could have happened to Ireti’s marriage to Bakare?
First, many are insinuating that Bakky, as he is fondly called, is not as rich as when he courted and married her.
“She is a pretty woman and it takes a rich man to keep ladies of her ilks. She has been exposed to wealthy men by virtue of her profession and the lowly life Bakky was thrusting at her didn’t make her happy. She opted out,” disclosed one of her friends to Kemiashefonlovehaven.
Another disagreed.
“Bakky is OK financially. I think the stress of marrying a man with other women and kids to cater for became a burden for Ireti and she separated. They are still good friends because of their kids but she seems not ready to go ahead with the marriage,” another source told KALH.
Bakky Adeoye reportedly had more than one wife before getting married to Ireti in 2009. Ireti, being a smart and calculating lady seemed to be the only woman to drag him to the registry, hence making her his only legal wife.
Then, when the wedding took place, the 36-year-old pretty actress was tagged a husband-snatcher.
Speaking glowingly of her husband in an interview before the separation:
“Truly, we were friends from the onset. We were more of friends than a couple. When I’m talking to some people, I sometimes tell them that my husband said this or that and they feel so strange wondering how my husband can say this to me? I tell him a lot of things and he does likewise. That’s why when you talk about me outside and you feel it will get to him, it doesn’t, because he knows it already. I don’t hide anything from him and I guess he has hidden nothing from me. I know that.”
Eniola Badmus has called out her colleague Toyin abraham for stylishly stealing her movie title Ghetto Bred!
The actress took to her Instagram page earlier today to rant about her effort, hard work and creativity being stolen and taken for granted.
Although the actress made no mention of any particular film producer, she emphasized that there can only be one Ghetto Bred produced by Eniola Badmus.
A closer look at the matter has reminded us that actress Toyin Abraham is set to release one of her movies (The Ghost and The Tour) into the cinema,the sensitization has started and in the trailer, a part referred to Toyin as ‘Pure Ghetto Bred”
Apparently, this is the bone of contention for Eniola who thinks the title was stolen sugarcoated.
Toyin Abraham’s fans are however not taking this allegation and ‘insult’ lightly…they have attacked Eniola in their large numbers!
Asiwaju Gentry the estranged husband of Nollywood Actress, Mercy Aigbe, has dented her image in his congratulatory mesagge to Actor, Gabriel Afolayan who got married about a week ago in Ibadan.
Lanre Gentry has managed to leave tongues wagging with the content of his message.
The Hotelier who has been left embittered since the actress left him after battering incidence many months ago was cryptic with his message and his followers were quick to recognize he was shading his wife again.
In his post Lanre Gentry had written “My brother, congratulations on your wedding. I pray for your marriage and I know God has made your wife the best not the prostitute that will pretend as one! Once again, congratulations!”
While this could have been a pure innocent post, Nigerians think it is a shade for Mercy whom the man has called a philandering prostitute on many occasions. Many also believe it is a clear indication that Gentry is not over the mother of his son.
Segun Ogungbe celebrated his first wife Atinuke’s birthday yesterday.
His second wife, Omowunmi Ajiboye who was once Atinuke’s best friend before marrying Segun also joined in the celebration to prove haters wrong.
Recall that last month, Segun Ogungbe clocked plus one and these two women celebrated him in a sweet way.
Segun has been married to his first wife, Atinuke for many years and the couple have kids together.
Atinuke wasn’t an actress but a good friend of Omowunmi, who was training as an actress with Segun Ogungbe Films Academy.
In 2015, news broke from Abeokuta that Segun Ogungbe had impregnated one of his ‘trainees’ and set to marry her.
Then a blog, Yoruba moviegist.com broke the news that the sexy actress, Wunmi was delivered of a bouncing baby boy for the actor in one of the private hospitals in Abeokuta.
Afterward, a fan of Segun took to the website to comment.
The fan wrote:
“Omowunmi Ajiboye, You are such a bad friend to have a baby for your best friend, Atinuke Ogungbe’s husband, you guys are turning this world to another world, anyway it’s not a big deal to you but you are a disgrace to all Yoruba girls and to the film industry.
“Both of you need to be expelled from the film industry. Segun Sgungbe is a silly idiot to have impregnated his wife (Atinuke Ogungbe’s) best friend Omowunmi, both of you are a disgrace to the film industry also to the whole nation.
“Segun Ogungbe is a silly idiot to have impregnated Omowunmi who squatted with Atinuke for several months in Abeokuta before.
“Mr Ibi Giga you are such a heartless and a shameless man, your movies are one of the best of mankind but you don’t learn from what you are teaching the public, if you, Mr Segun Ogungbe Olusola Bobo I show think your fans are silly like yourself, you are getting it twisted, you are a disgrace to the film industry”
“But it seems the war is over and the two friends are back again. Infact, Atinuke acted as a nurse in one of Omowunmi’s movies in 2017.”
Two brothers, Olufemitan Olaitan and Oluwafifunmi Olaitan were both found dead inside a non-functioning deep freezer.
The brothers aged 9 and 7 respectively both of the same parents live at No 6, Road 1, Eyin Ala, Akure in Ondo State.
The two brothers were left alone at home on Monday by their mother, identified as Olubunmi Olaitan, but on getting home she met the dead body of her two children inside a deep freezer and raised alarm.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, (PPRO) Mr Femi Joseph confirmed the incident, describing it as sad and unfortunate. He explained that there was no trace that the boys were killed, saying that the command did not make any arrest on the matter.
He said, “We did not suspect any foul play because it appears as if the kids were playing inside the deep freezer and they were locked up in the process, while there was nobody at home to open the door for them.”
A quite productive youth corps member has shared with us how she channeled her productivity during her service year and made some cool cash in course of this.
A reader of ours shared that while she was in her service year, she took up selling Garri, palm oil and crayfish and though it seems like it’s a small business, it made quite a substantial amount of money for her – N261k.
Sharing photos with us as she’s one of the members who passed out recently, she tells us how awesome her service year was and tells other corps members to not just pass through NYSC but make it count.
She wrote to us,
Pass out today. N Cant help but feeling grateful to God. NYSC was awesome made some cool cash after selling garri, crayfish and palm oil. To all corpers out there don’t just pass through nysc make it count
A yet to be identified young man has reportedly beaten his mother to death at Nsit Ubium Community in Akwa Ibom State.
The sad incident reportedly happened on Friday after a Prophet allegedly revealed to the young man that his mother is a witch.
The young man who was arrested this morning by angry youths in the community also alleged that the Prophet also told him that his mother is the one behind all the misfortune and difficulties he has been experiencing.
Evicted Big Brother Naija housemate, Teddy A has since his eviction from the house, continued to remain a trending topic online as he continues to give fans something to talk about.
The singer got more people swooning after a lovely photo of himself and his mum in floral shirts emerged online.
Teddy A and his bae, BamBam continue to serve impressive couple goals as they are obviously going stronger since their leave from the reality show.
Popularly referred to as Bamteddy, they were also one of viewers’ favourite couple. The duo have been out and about, going on media tours and all since their arrival in the country.
Claudia Diers Ayodele was among the thousands of Corps members who finalized the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme on Thursday.
The mixed race lady who couldn’t wait to remove her ‘horrible government uniform‘ after the Passing out Parade (POP) took to Instagram to share her experience during the programme.
She wrote:
So I passed out today. But no, you won’t see me wearing that horrible government uniform and posing with my certificate. I literally changed less than 10 minutes after getting my certificate ?
A brief recap?
Honestly the last 11 months were not a joke. I don’t know how many times I wanted to literally quit NYSC but I kept reminding myself why I actually started
Why? Because you just never know when Nigerians want to make your life miserable in the future. On the positive note, I learnt a lot about the way of life in this country
Got to experience going to a state without an airport in its near vicinity. Got to experience what it’s like to be in the deepest jungle bush where even google maps imaging cannot capture the road.
Got to experience how deeply ingrained corruption and indiscipline is in Nigerians from young to old. Got to experience how simple queueing, is not possible… Over and over again
Respect rarely exists. Humility rarely exists. Shame equally rarely exists. Self-Interest exists. Before anyone gets hurt by this finding, honestly there’s a big difference between poor and middle class not to talk of upper class.
They say Nigeria has a high number of graduates, I say Nigeria has a high number of graduates who were not taught quality education and lack basic common sense.
They say the problem with Nigeria is it’s old leaders, I say Nigeria faces an even bigger problem when the young already show traits of the older generation clinging on to power.
For the first time I got to fully interact with Nigerians from all walks of life and it has been a truly humbling experience. I am grateful to those who pushed me to do NYSC because now I know up until a year ago, I lived in a bubble when it came to ‘knowing’ my country.

Professor Richard Akindele has allegedly gone into hiding.
Akindele who is a Professor at Obafemi Awolowo University made headlines for demanding for sex from a female student of the school.
According to reports from PUNCH, one of the lecturers at his department said he had been hiding since his leaked conversation with the female student went viral on social media.
The lecturer, who did not want to be identified, added that the professor was not at his residence.
He added that some members of his church had been going to his house to sympathize with his wife.
He said, “The prof is not in the office. He has not been coming since his alleged conversation with a female student went viral.
“I don’t know where he is, but he has finished his sabbatical and has come back to the campus before this scandal broke out.”
The OAU Public Relations Officer, Abiodun Olanrewaju, said he could not tell if the lecturer had gone into hiding, adding that the committee investigating the matter had started sitting.
He noted that the school was still searching for the student.
He said, “For now, the prof. has finished his sabbatical, but he has some accumulated leave. It is only his head of department that can say categorically if he has been coming to the office or not.
“I don’t know if he has gone into hiding because he is not a criminal. We are still investigating the allegations levelled against him. He has not been convicted and he is not before any court of competent jurisdiction.
“We have set machinery in motion to identify the characters in the audio tape. Obafemi Awolowo University is the best ICT university in Nigeria and we have the apparatus to determine the vanity or otherwise of the audio tape.
“If any student comes out to tell the university that certain things happened to them, the university will investigate it.
“As a university, we don’t rely on speculations, neither do we dwell on rumours.
“But if we receive a formal complaint from anybody, either student or worker, that has to do with harassment – whether sexual, political, social or religious – we will take it up.
“But there must be a complaint before we know what to do.
“The girl that recorded the audio, we are still working on her identity and when she comes forward, we will know.
“But it won’t be in the interest of members of the panel to pre-empt that. However, they have started sitting on the issue.”

“Well, love is a very funny thing. It happens in the most unexpected way, you might be the first lady of a country and fall in love with a gardener and you won’t just know how to explain it, love is not something you can just explain.
“Whom you fall in love with is not something you can control. When we first started, I myself thought it was jazz cos people were saying it too, but one thing about jazz is that when you are being jazzed you won’t realize it, you wouldn’t even think of it once cos the jazz would have blindfolded you.
“But I have been with him for the past 12 years, I am sure that if he actually used jazz on me, it would have been impotent by now….so it’s natural, it’s funny, strange but I’m in love with my husband, with just the way he is.
“Probably if I have married a more handsome man, we would have divorced or separated since and not be living happily as we are now.
“But I married this man and I ‘m happy with him, happy with my marriage and I have a happy life.
“What more do I want or need, I am happy with my husband, I just wish I can tell the whole world that I am happy with this man, stop all this nonsense talk, he did not use Jazz on me, I love him just the way he is.”

She was born on the 13th of April 1982 in Delta State. She is currently 36 years old. She came to limelight when she emerged first runner-up at the 2007 Idols West Africa which was won by Timi Dakolo.
The singer got married this year in a low key event that held in January, in Warri Delta state. She got married to the love of her life, Tosin Yusuf.
Below are lovely pictures she shared in celebration of her birthday.
A Nigerian woman has gotten an invite to attend Prince Harry’s wedding.
Identified as Pamela Anomneze, she has been listed as one of the 1,200 favoured guests to attend the royal wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle scheduled to hold May 19.
Kesington Palance named Anomneze among the guests expected to share the best moments with Prince Harry and Meghan at St. George’s Chapel, on the grounds of Windsor Castle, which is the venue of the Church Wedding.
According to reports, the mother of three said she felt “excited and overwhelmed” to be one of the chosen guests who will attend the historic event.
“I got an email informing me, and I thought it was an April fool’s prank,” adding that the honour was “truly unbelievable”.
She said Harry and Meghan are the world’s most beautiful couple.
Anomneze, 52, was nominated alongside 600 other guests as the couple, according to Kessington Palace, asked for half of their guests to come from a range of backgrounds and ages.
The couple also wanted this to include young people who have shown strong leadership, and those who have served their communities.
The other 600 guests are expected to be people with whom Meghan and Prince Harry have a direct relationship and considered appropriate for their wedding.
Other interesting nominees include a primary school teacher, David Gregory, from Blyth, Northumberland and 12-year-old Amelia Thompson, who was caught up in the Manchester Arena bombing last year.
Anomneze is a Project Manager at Studio 306 Collective, a not-for-profit organisation that helps people recover from mental health problems by empowering them in a creative space.
Her dedicated activities at the organisation, which consists of a group of skilled arts and craft practitioners, was spotted by the regional lord lieutenant office.
The couple is due to wed on May 19 in a ceremony that will attract media buzz, as it is accustomed to royal weddings and the debate the union created in the media.
Markle will be the first person of mixed race heritage and the second American to marry into the British royal family which has attracted a lot of international attention and debate.
Wizkid surprises fans with four new singles; Aphrodisiac, Lagos Vibes, Highgrade feat. TY Dolla $ign and Commando.
The latter which features new Starboy Records signee Ceeza Milli was earlier promised and is off Legendary Mut4y’s forthcoming project.
The laidback “Aphrodisiac” produced by Northboi Beatz samples Ashanti’s vocals on rapper Ja Rule’s 2001 classic “Always on Time”.
Lagos Vibe and the Ty Dolla $ign featured Highgrade take on much higher tempos. This would be the second the Starboy is collaborating with the American singer.
The two had worked together on “One For Me” off Wizkid’s 2017 Sounds From the Other Side EP.
With each song, Wizkid puts his versatility on display as he astutely switches between genres.
Jide and Kemi’s parents are friends, so they spend a lot of time in each other’s house. Their parents would tease them about ending up as husband and wife, but they both knew that was never going to happen; or so they thought! Jide is five years older than Kemi; and they saw each other like big brother and little sister especially because Kemi’s parents have five girls and Jide’s, five boys.
Years later, Jide at 24 finally got admission to study his dream course, Computer engineering in Unilorin; he had been turning other admissions down because he was not getting this course. At this time, Kemi was 19, she was just rounding up her training in makeup and bead making. This was a rule in Kemi’s home because her parents did not think it was wise for them to go into the University immediately they were done with secondary school.
Distance was not an issue for Jide and Kemi, they kept in touch through all the media available. But 2 years later, Kemi was still finding it difficult to make her papers; she was battling with math especially. Her father was not ready to send her to a private school even though he could squeeze out the money. Jide came home for the holiday, and Kemi poured her heart out to him in tears. If she had not spent a year learning that stupid makeup and bead, she felt she would probably be in school now like her mates.
Jide calmed her down and promised to help her with her maths while he was around. While he kept trying to lighten her mood, one thing led to another and for the first time Jide and Kemi made out! This was an eye opener; their chemistry was explosive and with their strong friendship, they both knew that they were meant for each other!
A year later, Kemi had passed her maths and got admission to a university in Lagos instead of her hometown Ilorin but she was over the moon to be free of the 3 years and counting she had spent at home. Her relationship with Jide was public now and their parents were openly hinting at them to get married as soon as they were done with their education.
Two years later, with a very moderate strike in between, Jide came out top of his class at 29. He was no longer interested in working for anyone, so with help from his parents, he transformed the tutorial business he had started while in school into a full-time business. At 30, Jide was doing great at his business and he was sure that he was in the right career path, but he needed his woman by his side, and he did not think he could wait for two years or more to have his Kemi to himself. So, he took the first step by proposing to her.
Kemi and Jide’s parents were excited about the proposal, but they also had concerns about Kemi getting pregnant while still in university or dropping out of school due to the stress of motherhood. Now one day while Kemi and Jide were over at her place, Kemi’s family Nurse- Aunty Titi walked in, said her pleasantries and was about to go to the kitchen to gist with kemi’s mom when Kemi wisely asked her to wait a minute and asked for her help.
Nurse Titi told them that with contraceptives, they could have it all,be it an education, career and even a well-planned family. One of the methods she advised Kemi to go for was Sayana Press, a new contraceptive injection that works for 3months. She told Kemi that it is very private and no one will know she’s on it. She also said that it is convenient-since she only needs one shot every 3 months so it would not interfere with Kemi’s studies. And finally that it is not even painful because the needle is so small unlike other injections she knows.
Jide was also curious, so he asked if it was affordable, but Aunty Titi explained that Sayana Press will cost her just N500 at her own hospital. So without wasting time, Kemi agreed on when to go to the hospital where Aunty Titi works so she can get counselled some more and get this her Sayana Press. Before she could thank Aunty Titi, Kemi’s mummy that was stylishly eavesdropping from the kitchen gave a very big shout. “Ope O! Oya Let the preparation begin!!! This is going to be a wedding like no other!”
Controversial Big Brother Naija housemate, Cee-C is in the news yet again for another round of controversy trailing her.
A Nigerian lawyer has outed her on social media following a discussion she had recently with her fellow housemates.
While discussing with housemates, Khloe and Anto, Cee-C told the story of a guy she said was her best friend who had a relationship with a girl she did’t approve of cause the girl was all over the guy and was asking him to do stuffs against Cee-C.
Cee-C said because of this, she prayed their relationship would spoil and it did, it’s only that the guy had to lose his life for them to part ways.
According to Cee-C, the guy was the only child of his parents and so after his death, his father couldn’t bear the trauma and so he lost his life too.
A Nigerian lawyer who claims to be the sister of the lady that was dating Cee-C’s best friend, has now come out to counter her sayings and claim that Cee-C’s story is a false version.
She wrote:
And today people sent me a video that i said i must comment on because some people can just decide to lie just to contribute to gist.
First of all, CYNTHIA NWADIORA(ceecee), Etape Emmanuel(keep resting in peace my friend) was never your friend talk more of your best friend, he was just a guy you wanted to get to love you by all cost but he made it clear to you that his heart belongs to someone else( d girl u claimed he started to date, she is my sister and i know how you knw gree d poor boy rest cos your body dey always pepper you anytime you see dem) and you and your clique of gossips(you know your selves make una come defend her i dey wait) decided to die on top her matter jus because Etape stood his ground on wat he wanted.
I wouldn’t know why you decided to lie about the dead on live television, come geh! Wat do u really stand to gain.
Secondly, etape’s dad did not die 2 months after he died bt many years after d incident and it has nothing to do with the death of his son.
Am not surprised wen you said you prayed for the relationship to end because i have always known you as a bitter geh and i knew how you want to tear your eyelashes cos of him.
Pls next tym you want to lie just to get cheap fame, i guess you should look for something else.
And for all ds jobless bloggers carrying stupid rumour hear it now! Cynthia Nwadiora did not cause the death of Etape, he died cos d almighty called him to rest.
God help any idiot that want to comment rubbish on ma wall, d thunder that will fire you is still inside micro wave. AM WAITING!!!!!
