#BBNaija: Emotional Cee-C breaks down in tears, kisses Tobi

Earlier today, Big Brother Naija Housemates, CeeC and Tobi came first and second respectively in a general task they were asked to do today.

Then, for the next task, Biggie asked them to get dressed in nice outfits and instructed them to dance to intimate songs.

While dancing, Cee-C went all emotional and broke down in tears.. Tobi then leaned towards her, and they kissed.

Sadly for them, they lost the task.

Watch the video below:

 

 

Meanwhile, Evicted Housemate, Leo has declared that he’d love to get back into the house, that’s if he’s voted back..

According to the Real Estate Entrepreneur, who buried his mom the same day she died, according to her Muslim rights, his family have decided that if he’s voted back he can go back into the competition.

While answering a question from a fan which reads;

“Leo @SirLeoBDasilva , I’m so sorry about your mum.?. Some of us would like to vote you back into the house because we remember how you always said that your mum wanted you to do this.

But we need to be sure this is what you want. Would you like to come back? Please?”

He responded thus;

“If I’m voted back, I will return.

My family and I deliberated on this today. Thank you all so much for the support, I know it’s what she would have wanted so I’ll do it for sure.”

I can’t date a man that cannot give me 5million naira as monthly allowance – Nigerian Lady

A Beautiful Nigerian Lady has set her standards.

She says there’s no way she would date a Nigerian Guy, or any guy who would not be able to afford to give her Million Naira as Monthly Allowance.

Identified as Love Anidi on Facebook, she took to YabaLeftOnline Facebook Group to declare her standards.

She simply wrote;

“I can’t date a man that cannot give me 5million naira monthly allowance”

This is coming after we brought you reports of a lady who also set her standards, and riducled Igbo guys while doing so.

She also says she cannot date Phyno, and she gave her reasons as thus:

1. He is an Igbo man and definitely he will be rude and won’t be submissive.

He has this anambra wicked look. I run away from anambra and IMO guys because they are too arrogant.

2. He is richer than me. I will never marry any rich man when I know I have not started earning millions, I do not want to tolerate insult from them.

3. He is a celebrity and would likely cheat. I don’t want a cheat.

I don’t know how my aunt was so lucky to marry an anambra man that respects her and her decision but as for me I am joining Amanda adichie to marry non Igbo.

I laugh when they say Igbo men are the best and most romantic.

They are only the best for you that agreed to stoop low for them just to answer wife material.

Anyways I comment my reserve.

If phyno should ask me out, I will turn down his offer.

Robbers Kill Taxify Driver, Sell car N350k

Robbers Kill Taxify Driver

Two of the robbery suspects arrested by the operatives of Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the Lagos State Police Command for killing a Taxify driver and snatching his vehicle have confessed that they formed their robbery gang in Kirikiri Prison.

The suspects, Simon Tyozemda (27) from Benue State and Lucky Friday (24) from Delta State were arrested on Wednesday, 14th March, 2018 with two long knives inside a UBER operated cab, a Toyota Camry Saloon with the registration number APP 145 EE, which they had planned to kill its driver and steal.

The gang leader, Simon had through his girlfriend’s UBER app ordered a Taxi at past 11:00 p.m. last week. The suspects plan was to lure the driver of the Toyota Camry to a desolate location, kill the driver and take away his vehicle.

Robbers Kill Taxify Driver

The suspects were taking the driver to a lonely place on Lekki – Epe Expressway, Lagos, when their vehicle was stopped by RRS officers for a stop and search. The officers noticed one of the suspects seated at the back of the vehicle hiding a long knife.

Investigations revealed that the suspect’s intention was to divert the driver to a lonely place and snatch his Toyota Camry.

Further police investigations revealed that the duo ex-convicts who were released between December 2017 and January, 2018, from Kirikiri had sometime in February, 2018, in a similar manner snatched a Taxify Toyota Corolla with the registration number, FST 663 EZ along Badore Road, Ajah at bout 2:00 a.m. after killing its driver.

The suspects had after snatching the Toyota Corolla, sold it to one Mohammed Usman for N350,000:00. Mohammed had only paid N100,000 and was to move the vehicle to Jigawa when RRS Decoy Team arrested him.

According to Simon, an erstwhile security guard turned stylist in Badore “I met my colleague, Lucky Friday in Kirikiri Prison. We became friends and when I was released I gave him the number of my brother for him to call me.

When he was released, I promised him I was going to assist him to resettle properly. Since then, we have been working and operating together”.

“Our first operation was where we killed the driver of the Toyota Corrolla. He was a Taxify driver. I stabbed the guy in the stomach twice and I dropped him off the vehicle on the road in Badore, Ajah at after 2:00 a.m. We threw away the knives and bought new ones for the fresh operation we were arrested for”, he added.

He continued “before killing him, I placed the order to Taxify cab to pick us up at Lambasa, Lekki at past 11:00 p.m. Our destination was Abraham Adesanya Estate but we needed a desolate location to snatch the vehicle from the driver.

Robbers Kill Taxify Driver

It was the same business that took me to kirikiri prison. I was introduced into it by Michael. Unfortunately for me, I was arrested while Michael escaped. I spent four months behind bar. It is sad I’m being arrested again over the same business”.

Also arrested along with the suspects were the middle man who introduced the gang to the buyer of the Toyota Corolla, John Thankgod (25) and the buyer of the car, Mohammed Usman (41).

The vehicle was about to be taken to Jigawa State the following day RRS Decoy team arrested the suspects.

Further investigations revealed that the Taxify driver, Godfrey Ovie’s remains was dropped in Badore by the suspects, where it was discovered the following day by the police.

Longest serving Principal in Nigeria, Rev. Fr. Jeremiah Dermot O’Connell, has passed away in his country home.

He had returned to Republic of Ireland following his long sojourn in Nigeria.

According to reports, the Reverend Father died in the early hours of Wednesday, 14th, March, 2018 at the age of 85 years.

He was the longest serving school principal in Niger State and in Nigeria before he retired and returned home late last year.

Late O’connell had arrived Nigeria in 1967 as a missionary and first worked as a Catholic Priest in Calabar.

He then relocated to Niger State where he became the principal of Government Secondary School, Minna.

At 84, Fr. O’Connell was still teaching.

May his soul rest in peace.

Policeman kills soldier during argument in Delta

An unidentified mobile policeman in guard of an oil facility operated by Shell Petroleum Development Company has reportedly shot dead a soldier in Odimodi community.

According to PUNCH Metro, the incident occurred last Saturday during a misunderstanding between the two men.

A credible community source, who confirmed the incident, said he could not tell what led to the argument.

He noted that witnesses had also seen the two security men engage in a fierce exchange of words.

Other members of the team were said to have gone on a patrol of oil facilities in the area at the time.

In addition, he said the argument was followed by multiple gunshots a few minutes later.

The source further explained that the policeman, after killing the victim, shot continuously into the air to scare away residents.

He then absconded with the victim’s rifle.

It was also gathered that operatives of the Joint Task Force, Operation Delta Safe, later sent some of its men to remove the corpse from the scene.

A community leader, who did not want to be identified, said the development had created tension among residents.

He added that there was fear that the military might invade the community to search for the fleeing policeman.

He said,

“The incident happened on Saturday at noon. The two officers – a mopol and the military officer – were members of a combined security team stationed to guard oil facilities in Odimodi community. They had a misunderstanding. After a while, we heard gunshots.

“When people got there, they discovered that the mobile policeman had killed the soldier. The policeman cocked his gun and fired at the soldier and thereafter shot to scare people away from the scene.

“He (policeman) took the soldier’s gun and ran away. As of now, he has not been apprehended. The JTF authorities have removed the corpse of the slain soldier. There is tension in the community as we speak. People are afraid that the military may invade the community.”

Another source said residents had no hand in the killing, adding that the community leadership was ready to collaborate with security agencies to fish out the culprit if he was still in the area.

The spokesperson for Operation Delta Safe, Major Ibrahim Abdullahi, said he was not aware of the incident.

He said,

“I don’t know your source and I’m not aware of anything like that.”

In conclusion, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Andrew Aniamaka, promised to react after speaking to the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the area.

D’Banj and Don Jazzy announce first Mo’hits reunion tour [Video]

Don Jazzy and the members of the defunct group, Mo’Hits, are set to go on tour.

D’banj and Don Jazzy took to their Instagram yesterday to share synchronised videos explaining why they have chosen to reunite for a major tour.

“@donjazzy are they ready?” D’Banj wrote on his page, and Don Jazzy replied, saying, “How many states/countries should we give them?”

Recall that the Mo’Hits crew broke up in 2012.

They attempted severally to resolve their differences, but the feud lingered, especially after D’Banj accused the Mavin boss of sponsoring a smear campaign against him on social media.

They finally reunited last December at Davido’s 30 Billion Concert, and now set to work together again, for the first time since their breakup.

The tour details are yet to be made public, but fans already are celebrating the new feat.

See their post:

Nigerian Guy catches his girlfriend pants down with another guy in the hotel room he paid for

A young man reportedly caught his girlfriend bonking another guy, in a hotel room he paid for in Sapele area of Delta state.

The boyfriend, who according to many say is rich was said to have paid for the hotel room at the Simple Ocean hotel.

However, due to his busy schedule, he left his girlfriend to stay there and wait for him.

He reportedly told his girl that he’d be back at the hotel room in a later time.

Done with what he had planned for the day, he called his girl to inform her he won’t be available and may not come back to the hotel that day, but then, she was not picking up.

Worried that something may have happened, he drove straight to the hotel room, only to discover his girl was bonking another guy.

The heartbroken guy immediately broke up with the girl who asked for forgiveness all to no avail.

Reports however have it that even the girl’s mother is still begging the boy to forgive his daughter and accept her back.

Sapele Oghenek who shared the story in pidgin on facebook wrote;

“One Ghana Burger wey dey date one of my smalli wey dem dey call Tiana Palmer and the Boy pay room for her for Simple Ocean to sleep,as e nor too dey sure if him go come back come sleep with her or not.

As e nor come e come dey call Tiana Palmer for phone from 4am the babe nor dey take calls,nai e drive straight to Simple Ocean Hotel,as e nor sleep with her due to work wey e get for hand.”

“As e reach the Hotel,nai e see e babe with another guy for the room wey e pay for after enough lashing.

The Burger with anger just break up with the babe. The babe mama don dey beg the Boy since to forgive e daughter,say na devil work and dem nor do anything,as dem just sleep together like Big Brother Nigeria House people.”

Beautiful before and after make-up photos of Tonto Dikeh

Tonto Dikeh is naturally beautiful… So, sometimes we wonder why she decided to go for a cosmetic surgery to enhance her body.

Or maybe, the pictures you are about to see, we have the cosmetic surgery to thank?

Oh well! Below are before and after pictures of Nollywood Actress, Tonto Dikeh.. She had her make over done by Bibyonce.

.

Meanwhile, let’s do a little throwback to when Tonto Dikeh all glammed up for her son’s father’s day celebration in school..

Tonto Dikeh, stunned her fans after she stormed the Fathers’ Day celebration of her son’s school dressed in male apparel.

Apparently because of the absence of her ex-husband at their son’s school, Tonto Dikeh decided to wear moustache, male ensemble, complete with a cap to fit.

Sho took to her instagram account where she posted the photos from the event.

She captioned the video, “JUICY MAN’s (KINGY) school Fathers Day celebration today… I showed up for my son.. #PROUD MOTHER#KINGTONTO #AMOTHERSLOVE #KINGY#CHAMPIONS #I AM BLESSED #I AM A WOMAN, I AM STRONG, I AM BLACK AND I AM PROUD OF THESE..”

 

#BBNaija: Alex slams CeeC, defends Nina over their food fight

We recently brought you reports about CeeC having a heated argument with Nina, and they almost came to blows, over the latter’s supposed unfair behaviour.

Alex of course quickly took to Nina’s defense, and called on Cee-C to stop looking down on people.

She was quoted as saying “There is no level in this house Cee-c.

“When you say unto what level , who are you, you are looking down on people, you don’t tell people who are you.

“I do not like that kind of question, you have a shallow mind.”

VIDEO:


Second video;

 

Here is the video of Alex slamming Cee-C as she defends Nina over the incident.

Meanwhile, below is a summary of yesterday’s “Fake Nominations”..

Recall there will be no eviction, come Sunday, instead 2 housemates that were previously evicted from the show will be put back in the game.

Spicy Fake Nominations

Tonight Biggie put on a good show for the Housemates.

The Fake Nominations went off without a hitch and there was no letting on that things have been turned on its head.

Racked up

Technically, tonight’s Nominations may not count for Eviction but they were certainly still very interesting.

BamBam racked up five Nominations which means that she was the Housemate with the most Nominations.

Rico Swavey got three Nominations bringing him in as the second highest Nominated in the House.

BamBam has clearly been getting under many of the Housemates skins, either that or they see her as a major threat.

The Juice

There were some other juicy insights that occurred during tonight’s fake Nomination session.

Lolu also nominated his onetime strategic partner Cee-C.

Teddy A and Tobi obviously see each other as a threat as they Nominated each other.

Cee-C also straight up Nominated BamBam which is obviously something that has been simmering since her frustrations with the Nokia Task.

Coming Clean

It could have been the fact that Miracle won HoH or purely that they do not see her as a threat but Nina was the only Housemate that was not Nominated by anyone.

The squeaky clean Housemate manage to evade Nomination completely but chose to Nominate BamBam and Rico.

This was a completely different choice to that of her in-House lover and resident HoH Miracle who chose Cee-C and Lolu.

Finally, all of this is nothing but a ruse to allude the Housemates to the fact that not only will there be no Evictions on Sunday, there will also be two of the Evicted Housemates coming back into the House.

What a way to spice things up!

“5 Nollywood stars will die in 2018” — Popular Prophet, Dr Faleyimu

Founder of Mountain of Blessing and Miracle Church of Christ had a recent chat with YMG Magazine, and he categorically warned Nollywood stars to be prayerful in order to escape untimely deaths this 2018.

He also warned popular Fuji stars, Alabi Pasuma, Abass Oberese and Osupa to seek the face of God in order to escape hardship this year.

According to him, “the Nollywood industry should be prayerful, so that they won’t lose 5 stars among them this year”.

“Saheed Osupa, Obesere and Pasuma should also engage in serious prayers against hardship this year. God is showing me that hard time will force them to be selling their properties”.

“Alot of Actors will face hardship especially the women among them. Rich men will decieve them to leave their marriage and at the end, they go back to square one”.

“Why this will happen is because some of them don’t believe in God, they belong to many secret societies. Those who are for God would not witness the hardship. The identities of the 5 that will die weren’t revealed to me”, he said.

Earlier this month, Olagoroye also predicted that Nigerian president, Muhammadu Buhari will win 29 out of 36 States in the 2019 Presidential Election.

Prophet Dr Faleyimu Olagoroye is a popular man of God and the founder of Mountain of Blessing and Miracle Church of Christ. Over the years, he has been churning out prophesies about what will happen in a particular year before it happens.

One of which is the sudden death of the numerous showbiz stars that the industry experienced in 2016, especially in the Yoruba Movie genre of Nollywood.

#BBNaija: “I was raped by someone in the Entertainment Industry” – Ifu Ennada

Evicted Big brother Naija housemate, Ifu Ennada, moments ago, took to her social media page to share with her followers how she was raped by someone in the entertainment industry in 2016.

According to her, this said rapist gave her sexually transmitted infections which led to her being depressed and all.

She says she’s telling her story using a movie as a medium.

She wrote:

My Virginity Story; Rape & Depression

When I was in the Big Brother House emotions were raised when during a Truth or Dare game I said I’d not really had sex.

People interpreted that as me claiming to be a Virgin.

The truth is in 2016 I was raped by someone in the entertainment industry, before then I was a Virgin. This person also infected me with an STI…

I was also threatened by this person and was very scared of social media’s bashing with the usual questions of “what was she wearing!” ” why did she go to his house ?”…

So in all my sadness and depression I decided to tell the world what had happened to me using film as a medium.

She continued,

I was inspired to write and produce my film – Tears of A Broken Virgin.

I got a lot of help from social media – people volunteered to work for me free of charge even my director – Benny Atagame Alli

Though some parts of my film is fiction, the bulk of it was inspired by my story.

The lead character’s name is Ada which is a short form of my name Adanne- popularly pronounced as Ennada.

Because of my sad experience I battled depression, developed trust issues and found it hard to connect with people especially men.

I wanted to tell my story and also pass a strong message to rape victims and rapists…I hope I was able to do that with my film.

I intend to expand this into a feature length film. I hope everyone out there is inspired to stand up against rape.

Strange disease kills 8 Katsina students

An outbreak of a strange disease at Government Science Secondary School, Kurfi has reportedly killed about 8 students.

According to a Daily Trust reporter, the authorities of the boarding school closed down the school over the weekend and sent students back home.

The closure however did not go down well with the state Assembly.

They argued that closing and sending students home will further aggravate the situation.

To this end, the assembly has directed it’s committee on Education and Health to thoroughly investigate the matter.

They are to report back as soon as possible.

Kabir Lawal representing Kurfi constituency, drew the attention of the house to the outbreak and deaths at the house sitting today.

Two other members Garba Hussaini and Bishir Mamman from Kafur and Dutsin-ma said similar issues were recorded at the constituencies.

Mark Zuckerberg loses $5billion after Facebook shares drops

Mark Zuckeberg, CEO of Facebook’s net worth has plunged at about $5 billion after his company shares slumped.

This is as a result of the Cambridge Analytica scandal in which data of 50 million users was reportedly misused.

The company’s stock plummeted nearly 7 percent on Monday putting Facebook on track for their worst day in four years, Daily Mail reports.

Zuckerberg, who is currently the seventh richest person in the world, holds roughly 400 million shares, or 16 percent, in Facebook.

Following the drop, Zuckerberg is now worth an estimated $69.5 billion, according to Forbes.

His company is facing mounting calls to testify after reports emerged that the firm, which has links to President Donald Trump’s campaign, gained inappropriate access to data on 50 million Facebook users.

The reports have prompted a review by the company and expressions of concern by several US lawmakers who are demanding that Zuckerberg be grilled by the Senate Judiciary Committee.

The losses in shares on Monday would be among Facebook’s biggest daily fall, including a broader market pullback in February.

In January, when Facebook announced changes to its newsfeed, which it said would hit user engagement in the near term, shares fell 4.5 percent in one day.

Facebook announced on Monday that it had hired a digital forensics firm to investigate the handling of data leaked to a consulting firm.

Alleged husband killer, Maryam Sanda, asks court to dismiss murder charge

Maryam Sanda, who allegedly killed her husband, Billyaminu Bello, yesterday asked an Abuja High Court, where she is being prosecuted by the police, to dismiss the charge filed against her.

Billyaminu, the son of a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Mr. Haliru Bello, was allegedly murdered by his wife on November 19, 2017.

Others facing trial alongside Maryam are her mother, Maimuna Aliyu, her brother, Aliyu Sanda, and her housemaid, Sadiya Aminu.

The other three were also accused of conspiracy in aiding Maryam in carrying out the alleged murder of Bilyaminu.

The prosecution counsel, James Idachaba, however, opposed the application for dismissal of the charge.

Arguing the application for dismissal, defence counsel, J. B. Daudu SAN, submitted that the prosecution did not follow the right process before filling the charge.

He further argued that the matter should have been transmitted to the Attorney General immediately the police finished their investigation.

In addition, Daudu submitted that the police do not have the power to prosecute such murder case and that the power was only vested with the Attorney General of the Federation.

Daudu also submitted that there is an application in reference to that and urged the court to dismiss the entire charge against the defendants.

The lawyer cited Sections 359(1)(2) and 376 of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA).

He said: “The originating process is defective; the prosecution did not follow the normal procedure before it filed the matter, the prosecution has denied the intervention of the Attorney-General in this matter.

“There are steps that ought to be taken before the prosecution could institute the charge in the court, which is not done.”

Opposing the application, Idachaba urged the court to disregard and dismiss the application.

He said: “We are in total opposition of the application to dismiss the charge against the defendants, we have filed a 22-paragraph affidavit, the application by the defence counsel to dismiss the charge against the defendants should be dismantled.

“The submission that the charge against the defendants is incompetent is totally misconceived.

The defence counsel had done so many things since the beginning of the case to displease that position of his prayer.

Plea had already been taken, we urged the court to dismiss that relief and refuse the grant of the prayers.”

Meanwhile, trial could not proceed yesterday due to the absence of prosecution witness.

The trial judge, Justice Yusuf Halilu, later adjourned till April 19 and 20 for continuation of trial.

Earlier, Idachaba had told the court that the prosecution came to the court with two witnesses.

Finally, he later told the court that he could no longer see the witness he wanted to start with.

“Those who voted Buhari in 2015 should ask God for forgiveness” — Governor Fayose

Governor Ayodele Fayose, a very strong critic of the Buhari administration, has said that those who voted President Buhari in 2015, should ask God for forgiveness.

The Governor said this when he spoke to representatives of teachers, local government workers and private sector operators.

They had paid him a courtesy visit in the state house in Ado-Ekiti, under the Oshoko Mass Movement(OMM), a political group.

“Those who voted Muhammadu Buhari as the president of our country must seek for forgiveness. His leadership has brought unimaginable hardship and misery on the people. The killing is too much and if he continues in office the hardship will be intolerable. They said he would come and make the difference and make things better but the reverse is the case. Unemployment is second to none and he has killed the economy and made the people poorer. The level of nepotism is also unprecedented. Even their so-called fight against corruption is laced with favouritism and is one-sided,” he said

 

Furthermore, Fayose during his speech lamblasted the former governor of the state now Minister of Mines and Steel, Kayode Fayemi, for allegedly not using his office for the benefit of the state.

“There are natural deposits across Ekiti, President Muhammadu Buhari spent N40 billion searching for crude oil in the north, what is Fayemi doing to unearth the minerals that abound here?” he asked

Fayose also thanked Ekiti teachers and parents for making it possible for the state to take a big leap in the secondary education sector.

Finally , he applauded them for endorsing his deputy, Kolapo Olusola, as his successor.

#BBNaija: Watch Moment Nina and Cee-C nearly came to blows in the House

Big Brother Naija Housemates, Cee-C and Nina got into a heated argument yesterday, and they nearly came to blows.

Watch the videos below:

VIDEO 1 BELOW:

VIDEO 2 BELOW:

Did you watch day 50 of the Big Brother Naija 3 reality show?

If you missed it, we’ve got the highlights for you!

Good and Bad all Around

After defying Big Brother and conspiring in the House, Tobi was issued with his second strike in the game, which means one more wrong move will see him being disqualified in the game.

He now joins Lolu and Cee-C who each have already been issued with two strikes each. Also, Anto’s journey came to an end as she was voted out with the least number of votes. Not all doom as sad as all evictions are they have to be done because at the end of the day, it’s a competition and eventually there has to be one winner.

With that said, yesterday wasn’t all about bad news for the Housemates. For Tobi it was a bit of both as he and Rico Swavey emerged as the winners of the Nokia task.

As if that was not enough, Biggie also announced that the Housemates have won their Wager, something that hasn’t happened often with these Housemates.

At the end of the day it was all smiles when their PayPorte goodies were carted away.

Without You

Lolu and Anto shared a special bond, they were like partners in crime who were known and feared for their formidable mind power and highly cerebral perspectives. This morning, Lolu admitted that his bed suddenly felt too big.

Chit and Chat

After the workout and the breakfast, Lolu and BamBam sat at the dining table for what turned out to be an intriguing conversation.  Lolu said that he felt he and BamBam understood each other even though they had rarely spoken. He added that their peers always expected a reaction from them, and tended to feel that both BamBam and he were fake by their ‘water knows no enemy’ attitude.

Keep Talking

In an unusually candid mood, BamBam said that she felt like an ATM machine, always expected to give back what she gets, while she didn’t feel that she needed to reach all of the time to every single jab, joke or juice. Patiently listening and deeply analyzing her, Lolu nodded in agreement for he also shared the same trait. BamBam believed that people should just mind their own business and not meddle into others’ lives. For BamBam, the only Housemates she owed an allegiance to were Teddy A and Rico Swavey, and she said she didn’t care what others thought of her.

You’ve Got My Ear

However BamBam added that she had to confront Alex about her comments made during the previous day live Eviction show. Lolu then advised her to come out of her shell, and show more of herself as much as she may want to use the ATM analogy. BamBam appeared to take great comfort in Lolu’s words and admitted she hadn’t come with a strategy and was only taking in a day at a time. Lolu cheered her up that he never thought she was fake but felt she could have acted differently in certain situations.

Did Lolu strategically sweet-talked BamBam so that she wouldn’t Nominate him or was he sincere during their chat?

The Second Time Around

It seem as if Biggie’s challenges increase in quirkiness as the weeks go by.

Oh Biggie!

Today Biggie asked Housemates to fit stockings on their heads and walk in line to knock the water bottles on their path. However the trick was that Biggie’s Ninjas had added a tennis ball in the stocking that Housemates had to enter in a white cup at the end of their bottle line.  Upon learning about this twist, Tobi, Lolu and their peers all burst into laughter and Nina was still giggling by the time they all took their position behind the lines, all ready to compete.

Fast and Focused

On the sound of the buzzer, with hands in the back, Housemates stumbled around as they strove to advance as fast and focused as possible. Yet chuckling could still be heard as the Challenge appeared more puzzling than anticipated. Although all had started at the same time, it is Miracle whose cup was filled first. He lit up to be acknowledged again and when Biggie asked him to choose a Housemate to share the luxury bedroom didn’t hesitate to name Nina.

Spicy Fake Nominations

Tonight Biggie put on a good show for the Housemates. The Fake Nominations went off without a hitch and there was no letting on that things have been turned on its head.

Racked up

Technically, tonight’s Nominations may not count for Eviction but they were certainly still very interesting. BamBam racked up five Nominations which means that she was the Housemate with the most Nominations. Rico Swavey got three Nominations bringing him in as the second highest Nominated in the House. BamBam has clearly been getting under many of the Housemates skins, either that or they see her as a major threat.

The Juice

There were some other juicy insights that occurred during tonight’s fake Nomination session. Lolu nominated his onetime strategic partner Cee-C, Teddy A and Tobi obviously see each other as a threat as they Nominated each other. Cee-C also straight up Nominated BamBam which is obviously something that has been simmering since her frustrations with the Nokia Task.

Coming Clean

It could have been the fact that Miracle won HoH or purely that they do not see her as a threat but Nina was the only Housemate that was not Nominated by anyone. The squeaky clean Housemate manage to evade Nomination completely but chose to Nominate BamBam and Rico, this was a completely different choice to that of her in-House lover and resident HoH Miracle who chose Cee-C and Lolu.

All of this is nothing but a ruse to allude the Housemates to the fact that not only will there be no Evictions on Sunday but there will be two of the Evicted Housemates coming back into the House– What a way to spice things up!

The Lumapil Task

Tonight has been an eventful one for the Housemates, first they Wagered 75%, then went straight into the Fake Nominations, followed by the Lumapil Forte Task.

Team Dynamics

After being separated into three teams, the Housemates were required to formulate presentations about Malaria and the major effect it has throughout Africa. Team A consisted of Tobi, Lolu and BamBam. Team B was Rico, Alex and HoH Miracle and Team C saw Teddy A, Nina and Cee-C. This presented an interesting dynamic, especially after the fake Nominations where a lot of true feelings came out.

Different Strokes

There was a definitive difference in each of the presentations, it was clear that Team A lacked a bit of chemistry as their presentation was extremely formal and stiff. Team B showed a lot more flair with Rico being his usual funny self and Alex beaming with positivity at the podium. Finally Team C brought a healthy dose of drama with Teddy A playing a doctor and Cee-C and Nina performing a medical re-enactment. They poked fun at Miracle and Nina’s relationship in the House and even though they got a few facts wrong, it was still a good laugh.

Setting the Tone

The Housemates are fully in the game now and have learned that they need to make the most of their Tasks not only because they can win big but also because they cannot mess with Biggie. After Tobi got two Strikes yesterday and Anto’s Eviction was fresh in their mind, all the Housemates know now that they need to play the game with everything they’ve got. This was evident in their effort tonight and the last few Tasks before this. It will be interesting to see how the dynamic shifts when two of the Evicted Housemates will return to the House.

#BBNaija: Juliet Ibrahim replies follower who called her a hoe over Teddy A

Juliet Ibrahim replies follower

Juliet has responded to a follower to tagged her as a hoe, but tben, the follower didn’t flinch, and said her “comeback” was weak.

It all started when Juliet took to Twitter to thank followers of the Big Brother Naija show for voting for Teddy A.

Juliet Ibrahim replies follower

She wrote on her Twitter: “Thanks to everyone for voting Teddy A. God Bless you all”

The follower then responded, “You’re a hoe”, referencing the fact that she has a boyfriend, but she’s all over Teddy A.

…and then she responded with, “Yeah just like your mother. By the way, Your Mama initiated me into “Hoeism”.

See the exchange below;

Recall Juliet yesterday reacted to the 8.41 percent vote Teddy got, after the eviction show on Sunday.

Teddy A got a total of 8.41 per cent votes, while Miracle got a total of 27.98 per cent, more than three times Teddy A’s.

However, Juliet Ibrahim says there seems to be a manipulation of the votes.

On Instagram, she wrote, “Yes,Teddy A votes seems fishy,

“Most people were splitting votes that should not be the case, it is a game. We need to be for one person only until he’s evicted this is not good for us.

“We are one and we can make this happen nexttyime.

“Please no more splitting votes.”

Meanwhile, Ini Edo while in a chat with Rubbin’ Minds on Channels TV months ago said she is happy to have divorced her husband

Ini Edo got married to an American based businessman, Phillip in 2008.

She allegedly walked out of the marriage in September, 2014 following accusations of domestic violence and cheating.

Speaking on ‘Rubbing Minds’ the actress cited resolvable differences and incompatibility as the major reasons for the crash of her marriage.

Ini Edo said that closeness should have, may be, saved her marriage since her former husband was in America and she in Nigeria.

She said, “May be being together would have helped keep us together. Because it would enable us study and understand each other more. May be it would helped but I’m not sure.

Asked if her estranged husband was comfortable with her kind of job, she said, “He met me an actress and I believe he was okay with that.

“Actually he complained. My work takes my time and interferes with so many things.

“I tried to keep my [movie] roles as decent as possible when I got married. But naturally, there are certain roles you won’t be allowed to play.

“Even when you are allowed to play them, you can reject them not just because of your husband but you got relations as well.

Asked if her former husband’s family interfered in her marriage, she added, “He was the last child, so family members will try to see if their child is doing okay.

“I try not to regret [the time I spent in marriage] but I will say, it’s been an experience I have learnt a lot from. It made me a stronger person. It made me wiser and I think it actually made me more mature.”
