Aunty Cynthia Nwadiora has revealed that she’s got a beautiful relationship outside of the Big Brother Naija House, and that Tobi can’t be for her.
She says she isn’t interested in Tobi, as he’s got nothing to offer her, even outside the house.
This is coming during a question and answer dice game this evening after Alex asked her about forgiveness as regards Tobi.
She said;
“I don’t have something against Tobi. I have something beautiful going on outside the house that is better. I am not interested in what he has to offer even outside the house”
Meanwhile, Alex has said her biggest regret in the house, was when she cried profusely after Leo was evicted from the house.
Alex, during a question and answer session with other Big Brother Naija Housemates, BamBam and CeeC today, has opened up on her regrets.
According to her, she says she’d be deeply hurt if she gets out of the house, and realizes Leo played her.
…adding that she feels he genuinely cares about her, but admits that she could be totally wrong.
Alex didn’t stop there, she further disclosed that, if she gets out of the house, and realizes that Leo lied to her, she’d express her hurt and not keep it in.
When asked about her biggest regret in the house, Alex said she wishes she didn’t cry over Leo the way she did when he was evicted.
According to her, she didn’t even realise she cried so much and rolled on the floor, until other housemates told her.
She further stated she still can”t believe the extent to which she cried until she gets out of the house and watches it herself.
Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, has chastised Igbos for not voting President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015, The Cable reports.
Speaking on the topic “The Igbo in the politics of Nigeria” at the 12th convocation of the Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka, Anambra State, Amaechi said Buhari has done more for Igbo people in 2 years than the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in 16.
Amaechi asked that Igbos vote Buhari for a second term in 2019, so that they may rule the country after he is gone. He said:
You (Igbo) did not vote for Buhari, true or false? You voted for PDP and what did they do for you?
PDP abandoned the Enugu-Onitsha expressway since 1999, but Buhari is working on it, true or false?” he asked.
Buhari is working on the second Niger Bridge, he is working on the Otuocha-Ibaji-Abuja road, he is working on the Abakaliki-Onueke road, he is working on the Oji-Achi-Naku road in Enugu state, he is also working on Ozalla-Akpugo-Amagunze road.
He is working on the Aba-Ikot Ekpene road.
Under Buhari, all major cities of the south-east are captured in the existing railway project. Name one government that has done up to this within two years. Our problem is that we are just being emotional.
Igbo should go for confession, seek forgiveness and move into a national party, and look for way to fight from inside.
They should vote for Buhari for a second term, and then force him out and look for Igbo president. Let the quarrel with the North, real or imagined, stop now.

President of the country, Muhammadu Buhari has said that he is committed to the freedom of the only Dapchi schoolgirl who is still in captivity, as he was to the girls’ freedom when all 110 were in the captivity of Boko Haram.
According to a statement by his media aide, Garba Shehu,
“The Buhari administration will not relent in efforts to bring Leah Sharibu safely back home to her parents as it has done for the other girls after she was held back by the terrorists over her decision, as reported, not to convert from Christianity to Islam.”
“President Buhari is fully conscious of his duty under the constitution to protect all Nigerians, irrespective of faith, ethnic background or geopolitical location and will not shirk in this responsibility.
“The President is equally mindful of the fact that true followers of Islam all over the world respect the injunction that there is no compulsion in religion.”
The statement adds that, to this effect, no one or group can impose its religion on another.
His heart goes out to the isolated parents who must watch others rejoice while their own daughter is still away.
The lone Dapchi girl, Leah, will not be abandoned. President Buhari assures the Sharibu family that he will continue to do all he can to ensure that they also have cause to rejoice with their daughter soon.

Though her father didn’t warn or condemn her, instead he prayed for her.. He wrote; “My Queen baby God bless you and give you wisdom and happy understanding.”
Then he continued; “Sorry at the last, please have a happy new week. Joyce good morning dear”.

Lol.. It’s quite cute to know our old folks are embracing technology! Embracing social Media!
Nata Sharibu, the father of the only student of Federal Government Science and Technical College, Dapchi, Yobe state who is yet to be freed, says Boko Haram insurgents decided not to release his daughter because she refused to denounce Christ.
Acording to Thecable.ng Mr Sharibu speaking on RayPower FM shortly after the Dapchi girls were released, said he learnt that the insurgents gave his daughter the option of converting to Islam but she rejected it.
He expressed delight over her stance but prayed for her return.
“All of them were released. They said some were dead there and my daughter is alive but they cannot release her because she is a Christian,” he said.
“They gave her the option of converting in order to be released but she said she will never become a Muslim… I am very sad but I am also jubilating too because my daughter did not denounce Christ.”
Also the Nigerian Army on Wednesday formally handed 106 released girls from Boko Haram captivity to Federal Government.Maj.-Gen.
Rogers Nicholas, the Theatre Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole, presented the released girls to the Minister of Information, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, at the 105 Air Force Composite Command, Maiduguri.
Nicholas explained that 104 of the girls were from the 110 abducted from Government Science and Technical School, Dapchi, released from the insurgents in the early hours of Wednesday.
He said the remaining six abducted schoolgirls were still unaccounted, noting that two other abducted girls who were not part of the abducted students were rescued from the insurgents by troops.

An army commander in the northeast has been captured on camera helping out one of the Dapchi girls released by Boko Haram.
Following the release of over 100 abducted Dapchi girls an army commander has been spotted helping the girls.
In a quite emotional shot, the Commander of Operation Lafiya Dole, Maj.-Gen. Rogers Nicholas was spotted carrying one of the abducted Dapchi schoolgirls who were released by Boko Haram terrorists during official hand over by the Nigeria Army in Maiduguri on Wednesday.
One of the Dapchi schoolgirls freed by Boko Haram on Wednesday, Khadija Grema, provided a detailed account of their journey after Boko Haram insurgents abducted them on February 19.
About 110 girls were kidnapped from their secondary school in Dapchi, Yobe State.
A total of 105 of them were freed on Wednesday morning by the insurgents who dropped them off in Dapchi without any resistant or confrontation by soldiers.
Clad in hijab (overall gown) that was uniformly sewn for all the girls by the Boko Haram, she said their journey to captivity was a harrowing experience that caused the death of some of her school mates.
“We were at the school, about to break our usual Monday voluntary fast, when the gunmen arrived.
“Everyone was confused and people were screaming; one of them said we should come close to him.
“They were shooting and everyone was confused. So we ran towards the school gate,” she said in Dapchi on Wednesday.
“When we got there, they called on one Babangida to bring vehicles.
“They brought the vehicles and began to drive us away. Outside Dapchi, they asked that who amongst us were fasting.
“And some of us that were fasting were asked to come down from the vehicle. They gave us Maltina, meat, groundnut cake and pure water.
“We had our prayers after breaking the fast.
“Then we continued our journey until we got to a place with a big tree, they stopped and we were asked to cook food, it was dark, so they put on lamps.
“After eating, then we continued the journey for a long time until we got to a place where there is river, we came down from the trucks and they asked us to enter some canoes that took us across the river.
“Across the river, they took us to a house in one village that I don’t know; we stayed there for sometime.
“The next day, they came to ask us to come out and we were taken to the river and continued the journey until we got to where a thick forest area.
“That was where they kept us; and they have not changed our location since then.
“They have been feeding us very well, they treated us very well. They did not beat us; they did not molest us.
“The people that took us away were all speaking Kanuri and Arabic.
“They didn’t tell us any meaningful reason why we were freed and returned.
“They just said we are Muslims and they felt it was right for them to free us so that we will not suffer.”
She said some of the girls, apparently the very young ones, who were trampled upon while they were packed in the vehicles that took them out of Dapchi, died on the way.
“Five girls died while we were on the way to the bush; most of them died because they were trampled upon inside the vehicles,” Khadija said.
She added that their abductors did not molest them sexually.
“They did not molest or sexually harass us,” she said. “They even said it was wrong for women and men to sit in the same place.”

Michael Evangelou, 44, accidentally sent a message to Lina Dahlbeck, 37, last September, unaware it was the wrong number.
Three months after the message was sent, they got married.
The pair soon started exchanging messages after the first accidental chat.
They then agreed to meet and when they did, they fell in love.
Lina, who lives in Morden, South London, said:
“If someone told me I would meet my future husband when he sent me a text out of the blue, I would never have believed them. People are astonished every time I tell them how we met.
“Some of my friends have even started sending WhatsApp messages to random numbers in the hope of finding romance.”
Car salesman Michael, from Colliers Wood in south London, added:
“It’s certainly a crazy way to meet someone. Everything snowballed but in a good way. She’s the woman I want to spend the rest of my life with.”
“Girls trip,” Michael wrote in the first text, thinking he was texting his own number to remind himself to see Girls Trip. But it was sent to a female.
Make-up artist Lina replied: “Hi! Girls trip? Who’s this please? I’m guessing this was intended for another Lina”.
And everything pretty much took off from there to the altar.
Ray Hushpupi, took to Instagram to react to hypocrites who supported Daddy Freeze post.
He also bashed him when he said the same last year.
Here is what he posted below;
Yesterday I learnt something, I learnt sometimes when I put out a message and people react to it negatively, it doesn’t mean the message I was passing is wrong, it doesn’t mean I passed it wrongly, it’s just unfortunate that “my people”, who I am passing the message across to are bunch of hypocrites, because around 6months ago when I passed the same message about not patronizing fakes if you don’t want your own craft to be pirated too, the whole nigeria came against me.
One singer with bad hair line who is a lover of patronizing fake watches, clothes n shoes even suggested I should be investigated loool, another one jumped in the studio to make a diss track to telli person to stop wearing gucci which is a good thing lol,
another artist jumped in my dm to send me death threats in the name of cultism (which I filed a complaint to the police and some necessary ears that are good at taking revenges just incase, already) lol just because I said what was obviously TRUE and now they are all silent as if they didn’t see the same topic trending ?,
anyways fast forward to yesterday, the same message was flying around this time from a different mouth, and Nigerians be like, true talk, that’s right, they should stop buying fakes and many support the motion and I took time to read several comments and I was amazed when I saw some popular IG figure bashing artists and was against the same thing they supporting just 6months ago, I was shaking my head.
This has rebuilt my confidence, to never mind the reaction of people either good or bad, if I know what I’m doing or saying is right, I will never be scared to pass it on, who wants to take it should take it and who doesn’t should leave it but I won’t be silent no more because of y’all hypocrisy.
A Nigerian lady identified as Boss Badi, has blasted Runtown and his brother over their dispute with owner of Eric Manny Label.

Recall that earlier this month when Bambam was Head of House, she had expressed displeasure over Teddy A.
Bambam had said to Teddy A who was lying on her bed, shortly after Biggie asked all housemates to return into the house and close the front door.
According to Bambam, “You are affecting me negatively, any time I see you I have negative thoughts.”
Recall also that few weeks into the reality show, Bambam and Teddy were caught having sex in the toilet.
Following the sexual act, a lady who claimed to be a family friend of Bambam, identified as Fisayo Awonuga alleged that the housemate’s parents were angry with her sexual act.
Community members in Dapchi, Yobe State have called on President Muhammadu Buhari to pressure Boko Haram into releasing Leah Sharubu, the only schoolgirl that was not released by the terrorists after 110 were kidnapped one month ago.
The schoolgirls had been kidnapped by the terrorists on February 19, 2018, during an attack on their school but 104 were released on Wednesday, March 21 to wild jubilation in Dapchi.
One of the released schoolgirls, Khadija Grema, told Channels Television on Wednesday that five of her schoolmates died of heart attack and stress as a result of the long trip while the terrorists have held on to 15-year-old Leah for religious reasons.
“There’s one of the girls that wasn’t freed because she is a Christian, she was held back,” Khadija said.
Leah’s father, Nata Sharubu, was the first to speak about the issue on Wednesday when he disclosed during an interview that his daughter was not released by the terrorist group because she refused to renounce her Christian faith like they demanded.
According to a report by Premium Times, while the community is openly grieving the death of the five girls, they are also desperate for Leah’s return, as community members faulted the terrorist group’s philosophy of forcing Islam on the young girl.
Dori Kadau, a community leader, told Leah’s parents that they have informed Bashir Manzo, who is the chairman of the abducted girls’ parents, to press President Buhari about the teenager’s safe return.
He said, “We thank the Federal Government of Nigeria for releasing most of our daughters from the abduction of Boko Haram, but the government must understand that one of our daughters is still being held by the insurgents.
“Today we mourn the death of five of our daughters after they were abducted by Boko Haram while pursuing their education in a public school.
“As humans we have no means of reversing their painful deaths even though they were supposed to be under the care and protection of government, but our sorrow will know no bound if one of the girls who was held back based on the religion she practices is not brought back to us.
“We in Dapchi, believe that Islam is built on a foundation of freewill, where no one is compelled the religion except if he or she choses to. That Boko Haram decided to force Leah to become Muslim, was strange and unheard of. If the federal government claims it facilitated the release of our girls, we see no reason why they have to accept a situation where one of them is profiled base on her religion.”
While commiserating with Leah’s parents during a visit to their home with other community members, Kadau said, “We can’t accept any deal on our girls without one of them. That is why we told our chairman of the abducted girl’s parents, Bashir Manzo, who is currently with the girls in Abuja that he should tell the president that the only favour we want from him is nothing but the rescue of Leah, our daughter who is still in captivity. An injury to one is an injury to all, that is the spirit that has been driving us here in Dapchi.
“And to the Boko Haram, we have also sent across our plea through the media that they should fear God and empathise with the poor girl and release her for us.”
Family deeply affected by Leah’s predicament
Leah’s family was thrown into deep sorrow on Wednesday when they were informed her captors refused to release her because she refused to convert from her Christian religion to Islam.
Leah’s mother was in a deep state of mourning on Wednesday while other parents celebrated the return of their children.
Her sister was also reported to have fainted and might even have slipped into a coma after hearing the news that her sister was not among those that were released.
Her father, Nata, was more defiant on Wednesday while speaking during an interview as he expressed his pride at his daughter’s courageous decision.
“I am happy because my daughter did not denounce her faith. They refused to release her because she refused to convert to Islam,” he said.
No ransom paid for girls – FG
The Federal Government has categorically denied reports that it paid a ransom to Boko Haram to secure the release of the girls.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, said the “unconditional” release of the girls was as a result of back-channel efforts achieved through “the help of some friends of the country”.
Released schoolgirls moved to Abuja
After the 104 schoolgirls, alongside two other released hostages, were documented and profiled in Dapchi on Wednesday, they were transported to Borno State capital, Maiduguri, for onward movement to Abuja.
At the 105 Air Force Composite Command, Maiduguri yesterday, the Theatre Commander, Operation Lafiya Dole, Major General Rogers Nicholas, presented the released girls to a delegation of the Federal Government.
The delegation was led by Lai Mohammed, and included Minister of Interior, Abdulrahman Dambazau and Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Khadija Bukar-Abba.
The released girls, alongside their parents and some aid workers, boarded a Nigerian Air Force aircraft to Abuja late on Wednesday.
Dapchi abduction
Boko Haram militants invaded Government Girls Science and Technical Secondary School in Dapchi, Bursari local government area of Yobe on Monday, February 19, 2018, and abducted 110 schoolgirls.
According to accounts by residents, the terrorists invaded the town around 7 pm in over 18 gun trucks mounted with high caliber weapons.
The abduction was a repeat of another Boko Haram attack that happened when militants invaded Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok and kidnapped 276 female students in April 2014.
After several escapes and releases, 112 of the girls remain in captivity of the deadly terrorist group.
Céline Dion is suffering from a condition that has made it difficult for her to sing.
She is canceling several shows at her Las Vegas residency so she can undergo surgery.
The singer announced this Wednesday night.
Dion, according to the statement, has patulous eustachian tube, a condition in her middle ear that causes troubles with hearing.
That condition “makes it extremely difficult to sing,” her team noted.
And though she had been treating it for more than a year with ear drops, that treatment stopped working, making the surgery necessary.
According to the Dallas Ear Institute, the eustachian tube connects the middle ear cavity to the throat.
But people with Dion’s condition have an issue where their eustachian tube stays open and doesn’t close when it should.
That causes symptoms like muffled hearing, hearing your own voice and feeling your breathing in your ear, and an urge to “clear” your ear all the time.
Dion announced the news on her Facebook page:
“My luck hasn’t been very good lately… I’ve been so looking forward to doing my shows again and this happens….
“I just can’t believe it!” she said in the statement.

Nollywood actress, Susan Peters has saved her face from disgrace by paying a make-up artiste she was owing for sometime prompting the lady to go public about her debts.
Well known Lagos-based makeup artist, Tonia dragged Nollywood actress Susan Peters on social media some days ago over her refusal to pay for her service and pick her call.
To prevent herself from further ridiculous humiliation, the Nollywood actress then settled her debt.
The actress has started firing back at the inpatient MUA on the social media.
She wrote on her page,
“WakandaKingdom, no room for attention seekers. #SusanPeters #Suezplace #SuezKitchen #SueRitzPlc #Suezplace #Agboyiventures #12ADProductions we no be mates at all #nooneisindispensable Nigerians always like one sided story , looking for cheap publicity.

“I will live and let God, he alone knows the truth, God of Shiloh!!! Certain people will always bad mouth people forgetting this world is a circle, it s well.”
Tonia also fired back at Susan Peters:
Her words:
“Do NOT take my Quietness for Stupidity. If being TRUTHFUL makes me Bad.
Then I’m F**king BAD. Please leave my dp alone. It’s been there for weeks, I’m not gonna change it now.
To all those talking bout patience, I pray and hope to God, you don’t get owed in your business at a time of EMERGENCY , I pray.

It just won’t stop y’all! – the never ending gushing of Davido over his babe, Chioma continues people and in another episode, he’s dubbing his babe as the ‘most beautiful thing on earth’.

In his own words, That’s not even her page lol. Damn my baby has fake pasges now ! LMAO BLOWN!
Now he has dubbed her as the most beautiful on our planet… Aunty Chioma, what else could you ask for? Ehn?
Closed Circuit Television installed in a Lagos boutique, has captured the moment a customer stole the sum of N250k.
The yet to be identified thief was caught on camera in a boutique, located in Lekki, Lagos.
In the video footage, the thief is seen using shocking tactics to get a hold of quarter a million that was inside a bag.
She pretends as though she’s checking out some clothes and then uses those clothes to cover the bag before she then tucked her hand inside and took the money.
She then used the clothes to hide it after she’d taken it.
The owner of the boutique took to her Instagram page to beg for information on the mystery thief, she wrote:
Hello everyone please whoever knows this woman should give us information on how to get her.
She came to our lekki store to steal money from another customer’s bag, after distracting by giving her a dress to try out for her.
Please tag people until she’s been exposed and caught. Thank God for our camera that caught her.
The money was 250k.From the video you can see the way she dropped clothes on the handbag and took the envelope that contained 250k. She’s the lady on white and black that packed her hair .
My dear people please let’s join hand and expose this lady cause she stole the money from a 19yr old girl’s bag.
It’s quite painful that a matured lady could steal from a little girl that’s old enough to be her daughter at this economic situation.
Pls kindly help us to repost till she gets caught.
Residents of Dapchi community in Yobe state came out en masse to cheer Boko Haram members as they returned their abducted school girls yesterday March 21st.
In a video which was shared by SR, Boko Haram terrorists could be seen receiving a “heroic” welcome as they dropped off high school girls abducted from Dapchi in Yobe state.
One of the Dapchi schoolgirls freed by Boko Haram on Wednesday, Khadija Grema, provided a detailed account of their journey after Boko Haram insurgents abducted them on February 19.
About 110 girls were kidnapped from their secondary school in Dapchi, Yobe State. A total of 105 of them were freed on Wednesday morning by the insurgents who dropped them off in Dapchi without any resistant or confrontation by soldiers.
Clad in hijab (overall gown) that was uniformly sewn for all the girls by the Boko Haram, she said their journey to captivity was a harrowing experience that caused the death of some of her school mates.
“We were at the school, about to break our usual Monday voluntary fast, when the gunmen arrived. Everyone was confused and people were screaming; one of them said we should come close to him. They were shooting and everyone was confused. So we ran towards the school gate,” she said in Dapchi on Wednesday.
In another episode of “men are scum” on social media, a lady has taken to microblogging platform, Twitter to share how a married Nigerian man conned his mistress into collecting a loan and then jilted with his family to go abroad.

Months went by with nothing to show for it.
He didn’t pay back the money and didn’t even contact her afterwards.

Nigerian Fashion designer, Tolu Bally has shared the story of how an Uber Driver almost succeeded in kidnapping her mother.
The designer revealed that she requested for an Uber for her mom.
During the trip, Tolu’s mom realized that the driver was taking a different route and called her daughter.
Tolu demanded to speak with the driver who claimed that he took the route because of traffic.
Speaking with BroadwayTV, Tolu said;
“I spoke to the Uber guy and he said he wants to go through the 4th roundabout to avoid traffic which doesn’t make sense seeing as there was no traffic.
“I asked him to bring my mum back home and he hung up the phone. My mum called back, screaming that the guy isn’t listening to her and all.
“I asked her to put me on speaker phone since he has refused to speak with me and told him to let her come down from his car if he can’t bring her back home.
“Please note at this point the guy has gone offline and we couldn’t trace them. I kept calling my mum’s phone who obviously was screaming and crying in the car; telling him to drop her or take her home.
At this point I knew something was wrong. So I left the studio and headed to the 4th roundabout, all this while I kept calling my mum but wasn’t picking, eventually she picked her calls and said the guy threatened to stab her and take her to an unknown destination no one would find her.
“I didn’t know what to do. I told my mum to stay on the phone so I can monitor them whilst driving to them”.
“All through they kept exchanging banters. My mum kept telling him my children will find me and all.
“I noticed we weren’t getting anywhere so I told mum to wind down the door glass and scream for help.
“She did as she was told and also grabbed him from the back with his t-shirt. They got into a small traffic and passersby heard so he had to pull over.
“My mum at this point has lost all energy and was shaking. The witnesses seeing how rough and unkempt the Uber driver was, asked him for his ID.
“He acted like he was going to get it from the car and ran away. I was able to track them down and found out that the Uber guy, who picked my mum from my house, was different from the guy in the Uber app picture,”
On what Uber company has done to the issue, the stylist said;
“I have reported to the police and my brother has tried to reach Uber but the response has been slow and doesn’t look like they understand the gravity of this offense.
“They only gave “12 Akinsanya Street” to the police as the location of the driver. But there are mass numbers of such address in Lagos.
“We cannot even trace the Guarantor’s address. This guy is still working with Uber, and they have not asked him to make himself available for interrogations.
“I never believed the story of people using Uber for kidnapping till now that it happened to me. PLEASE HELP BROADCAST till we get these guys nabbed and get @ubernigeria @uber to do the right thing.”
