The driver of a commercial vehicle became a lone casualty of an accident after he sacrificed his life to save his passengers.
The late driver of Ejiro Onovughe Motors has been lauded and called a hero after passengers who survived the accident recounted how he intentionally ensured it was his side of the car that collided with the trailer to protect his passengers.
The bus he drove was conveying passengers from Delta to Lagos state when it collided with a heavy duty trailer and the driver died on the spot.
Days ago, a Nigerian singer on Facebook, with name, Sandra Sabriel Ifudu narrated how a Taxify driver almost kidnaped her after she ordered his ride.
She took to Facebook to share that the driver waited outside her gate till 04:00am to kidnap her just because the fee for the ride which she transferred to him didn’t reflect in his bank account.
Is Taxify no longer safe for women to use? This idiot of a driver by name Izedomni dropped me off in my house last night,waited outside my gate till 4am in the morning,then came into my compound to kidnap me. According to him,the money I transferred to him ‘has not entered’,therefore I should follow him to d ATM by 4am! to confirm. If his intentions were pure,why didn’t he wait till day break? Why ask me to follow him out at that time? If this is not an attempt to kidnap,I don’t know what it is. The only person I blame in all these,is my neighbour that opened the gate for a total stranger at 4am!
Philomina Chieshe – the official of the Joint Admission and Matriculation Board (JAMB), who weeks back claimed that the board’s N36million was swallowed by a snake, has retracted her statement.
Chieshe, who works as a clerk at the JAMB office in Markurdi, Benue state, had initially told top officials of the examination body that a “mysterious snake” swallowed the money gotten from the sale of JAMB scratch cards.
However, when she appeared before the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), she confessed that the money was collected by one Samuel Umoru, who’s her superior.
A fact sheet released by the Antigraft agency indicated that Chieshe was first quizzed on February 16th 2017 and she made additional statements on April 7 and 13 2017, May 30, 2017 and June 28, 2017.
Philomina Chieshe, the lady in the eye of the Naira eating snake storm in JAMB, has been singing before the EFCC. And, contrary to her claim before the leadership of the examination body that the N36 million proceed from sale of scratch cards were eaten up by a snake, Chieshe told operatives of the anti- graft agency that the money was collected piecemeal from her by her coordinator, Mr. Samuel Sale Umoru. In one of the statements she volunteered to the EFCC, Chieshe, who is a clerk in the Makurdi office of JAMB, revealed that the Coordinator usually asked her to withdraw proceeds of the sale of the Scratch Cards from her account in two new generation banks. This money I withdrew, the coordinator used it for the office and some time for himself. She claimed that she had been warning Umoru that it was improper to use the money for miscellaneous expenses in the office or for private purposes but he would not listen. She also claimed that Umoru was in the habit of drawing IOU from the proceeds of the sale of the cards without reimbursing her. Some of the withdrawals which she claimed were at the behest of the coordinator included the N340,000 withdrawn on May 5 and 26, 2014 with ATM card. She also disclosed that she used her ATM card to withdraw N120,000 for the coordinator between June 17 and 18, 2014. “He instructed me to withdraw N640,000, using my card between June 30, 2014 and July 7, 2014.”
An EFCC official who spoke to The Nation, said
“The investigating team had verified the withdrawals after a careful analysis of the statements of account of the suspect. Mr. Umoru had also been arrested and questioned about claims by Chieshe. Umoru did not deny the allegations.
He was however released on administrative bail but had been reporting monthly to the anti- graft agency. The interesting aspect of the disclosure is that Chieshe’s statement was obtained long before the snake and Naira swallowing testimony became public knowledge.
In all her statements before the EFCC, there was no mention of any episode of any snake and the disappearance of monies in her care. In a fact-sheet regarding the investigations, Chieshe was quoted to have said her superior — the coordinator at the Markurdi office — had asked her to withdraw the N36 million.”
The suspect told the antigraft agency that she had been warning Umoru “that it was improper to use the money for miscellaneous expenses in the office or for private purposes but he would not listen.”
Other JAMB officials being investigated include Tanko Labaran who could not account for N23 million from sale of scratch cards at the Nasarawa office, and Yakubu Jakada who is yet to explain the whereabouts of N20 million e-facilities cards sold in Kano office.
All the suspects have been released on bail pending the outcome of the antigraft agency’s investigations.
There’s been mixed reactions over the now gone viral photo of Governor’s son, Ajibola Ajimobi grabbing one of the bosoms of his new wife, Fateema Ganduje.
Some hours ago, media consultant for Atiku Media Organization, Na-Allah Mohammed Zagga, reacted over the photo as he was particular about certain people not condemning the photo as they did for Emir of Kano’s daughter. ICYMI
Now, former Kano state governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso has slammed the act tagging the couple as ‘non-virtuous.’ While addressing his supporters, he said;
“Only few people are happy with the marriage of a single zawarawa because they are just one. We heard the eastern, the western, the southern and the northern entry points to Kano are all shut for the marriage of a single ‘zawarawa’ couple.
“This shows a sharp departure from the Kwankwasiyya ideology in Kano State. Today, Kano was at a standstill because of this marriage.
“We also heard a lot of people from other places that are less busy have abandoned their duties to attend the wedding. I also heard this event involving a single couple has made lot of people doing their legitimate businesses remain indoors.
“All these show difference between honesty and dishonesty, between light and darkness, between mass wedding of a thousand couple and that of a single couple,” he said.
The Big Brother Naija Housemates have been in the house for weeks now, without access to social media, and of course not knowing what is going on in the outside world.
Yes, they know there are cameras everywhere, but then, they won’t know when they’re captured doing “something odd”.
Evicted housemate, Angel, went home with his strategic partner, Ahneeka, having had the lowest vote during the live eviction show on Sunday.
Angel weeks ago was caught on camera scratching his bum, and immediately smelling the hands.. Yes, it’s a “natural thing”, many say it is reflex.. But then, you don’t wanna be “caught” or “seen” doing it publicly, not to talk of live TV.
In a new interview, Angel has said he regrets scratching his butt and smelling it, while tagging it as a disgusting habit.
Black Panther lead actor, Chadwick Boseman has revealed that classic Hollywood star, Denzel Washington paid for his acting classes while he was still a student at Oxford University.
Boseman said the tuition was paid via a scholarship program for a summer class he took in school. Speaking on Jimmy Fallon’s show, Boseman said veteran, Phylicia Rashad taught the acting class and got some famous donors to help the college kids get overseas:
I didn’t have money to pay for this, and so she [Rashad] got a few of her friends together and, you know, they paid for us to go. I didn’t know at first–when I came back–and I’ve basically been holding this secret my whole career, [but] when I came back I got a beneficiary letter. And it said, ‘Denzel Washington paid for you.’ You know, and I was like, ‘What?’
Boseman continued;
“I’m sure he has no idea. It was random. I couldn’t wait to write my thank-you letter! I’ve been waiting to meet him, so I can tell him.
The weird thing that happened is, I did the interview, and just before the movie came out we did the NY premiere and he came and I met him. Before the article came out, so I actually lived up to what I originally wanted to do.
Boseman said Denzel joked about it when they finally met,
“Oh, so that’s why I’m here – you owe me money!” Washington told Boseman. “I came to collect!”
Denzel Washington was nominated for the Oscars in the Actor in a leading role category, for the movie, “Roman J Israel, Esq” but lost the award to Gary Oldman, the leading actor in movie, “Darkest Hour”.

Meanwhile, one of the evicted housemate, Comedian Dee-One has described Nina, Miracle, Tobi and BamBam as fake.
Speaking with NAIJ TV, Dee-One identified Ifu Ennada, Angel, Cee-C as those not faking their personality.
He said, “The ones being real in the house, we know them. The likes of Miracle, Nina, Tobi, BamBam, are all fake. Miracle and Nina are just fake. For example, both of them pray before they sleep.
“After prayer, they then start kissing. Are they inviting God or devil into their union? Ifu Ennada is just being herself. Bitto is a smart person; Rico is a cool guy, Teddy A is real.
DeeOne
“Despite the fight, Angel is a correct guy I really like him. Cee-C is my person. She is not a terrible person. Anto doesn’t talk much because she primarily grew up in the U.S.A. Alex is herself a 100% she has fallen in love with Leo.
“Leo is just looking at her. He has no business being in the BBNaija house, he is so brilliant. Ahneeka really doesn’t do anything in the house apart from treat her pimples. I think she is also very brilliant.”
A teenager didn’t know she was having a baby until she was in labour because she hadn’t shown any signs of pregnancy.
Charlotte Thomson, now 21, of Newcastle upon Tyne, had regular periods and was still slipping into her size 8 dresses so had no idea she was expecting.
It wasn’t until she took herself to hospital with bleeding and painful stomach cramps that medics told her she was about to give birth.
Daughter Molly, now two, arrived two hours later.
Nursery nurse Charlotte said: ‘My stomach was completely flat, and I’d been having regular periods so it was such a shock when I found out.
‘I didn’t believe that I was actually pregnant until I gave birth. It was scary becoming a first-time mum with no warning.
‘But I wouldn’t change Molly for the world, and I feel so lucky.’
Charlotte, who fell pregnant with an ex-boyfriend, said she only put on 3lbs during her pregnancy and had felt more tired than usual but put the symptoms down to her party girl lifestyle.
‘I thought it was from going out all the time,’ she said. ‘I still managed to get into my clothes so I just ignored it.’
In December 2015 Charlotte woke in agony at 2.30am and realised she was bleeding profusly.
She said: ‘I took some paracetamol and hoped that it would blow over.
‘Instead, the pain just got worse and I was in agony. An hour later I felt like I was going to be sick so I ran to the toilet and saw that my underwear was full of blood.
‘I had just finished my period so I was really scared. I knew something was seriously wrong and booked a taxi to the hospital.’
Nurses at Northumbria Specialist Emergency Care Hospital examined Charlotte and told her she needed to speak to a midwife.
‘I told them that there had to be a mistake,’ Charlotte said. ‘I’d had no symptoms.’
But ten minutes later, a midwife performed an ultrasound and told Charlotte she was nine months pregnant and in labour.
Charlotte continued: ‘I panicked that I wasn’t prepared and hadn’t bought any baby clothes. I was so worried about what my parents would say when they found out that I was having a baby.’
At 4.30am, a nurse phoned Charlotte’s parents, Lynne Thomson, 50, a domestic cleaner, and Vincent Thomson, 50, an engineer, and told them their daughter was pregnant.
Charlotte said: ‘My parents thought that I was only a few weeks along and having a miscarriage.
‘I burst into tears when they arrived, and told them I had no idea that I was pregnant. They were really supportive and excited about their first grandchild.’
Two hours later, Charlotte gave birth to Molly.
Charlotte said: ‘As soon as I held Molly, I loved her so much. She was perfect and we had an instant bond.’
Doctors explained that she’d had no bump because Molly had been tucked up underneath her ribs.
Charlotte said: ‘It’s crazy to think that I’d been carrying a baby all that time.
‘When Mum called my work to explain that I’d had a baby, they were gobsmacked as they’d seen me the day before with no baby bump at all.’
Charlotte and Molly were discharged from hospital two days later – after Lynne rushed out to buy nappies and baby clothes.
Charlotte says: ‘My friends didn’t believe me until they saw a picture of Molly. Luckily I’m still a size 8 and didn’t need to lose any baby weight.
‘Molly has joined the nursery that I work at so I can take her with me, which is perfect.
‘Molly’s dad is an ex who is no longer in the picture, but I have plenty of help from my parents with the baby. I’m no longer a party animal but it’s worth it to have Molly.
‘I can’t wait to tell her the story of how I discovered I was pregnant with her. Nothing Molly could ever do in the future would surprise me as much as the day she was born.’

Popular Ghanaian singer, Shatta Wale has been arrested by the Police in Ghana over an alleged assault on a policeman on duty.
The controversial artiste was seen in a viral video having a heated verbal brawl with a police officer, who had apparently stopped an unregistered Range Rover SUV. The video was circulated across social media over the weekend.
The Range Rover with no number plate belonged to Shatta Wale but was being driven by another person. Upon arriving at the scene after being called, Shatta Wale verbally assaulted the police officer in charge and drove off in another unregistered car.
Shatta Wale.
This necessitated his arrest, DSP Buckman confirmed to Andy Dosty on Daybreak Hitz on Hitz FM.
She said “Shatta Wale was picked up by the police on Sunday and granted enquiry bail. It wasn’t just unregistered, it had no number plate at all, which goes against our laws.
In an attempt for the policeman to ask questions…Shatta Wale assaulted the police officer and also exhibited insulting behaviour. Because of that, he was arrested on Sunday and he’s been granted police enquiry bail to reappear at the police station this morning.”
According to her, assault does not only consist of a physical battery but insults as well, especially to an officer of the law carrying out his official duties.
“If you look at Act 29 [of the Criminal Code 1960], a person does an act of assault where the intent is to lead to harm or cause any other event that will lead to harm,” she said.
“It is an offence for anyone to drive a vehicle with no number plate at all.
“Every vehicle owner must either possess the normal registration plate or an interim one (DV or DP), she said stressing “nobody can drive a vehicle in this country without any form of registration, no way!?”

From Aba Nigeria to Launching a Tech Company in the USA: Meet Favor Ori, The Founder of CodeWithFavor who dropped out of a Nigerian Tertiary Institution to pursue a degree in Computer Science at the Southern Arkansas University, USA.
Favor Theophilus Ori
What are the odds that a 21-year-old Nigerian who grew up in the suburbs of Aba in Abia state, Nigeria, where electricity hardly lasts a straight 24 hours and mobile network is as unstable as the price of fuel, would one day found a Startup that would empower Nigerian youths like him with tech skills that would make them competent and employable on a global level.
Favor Theophilus Ori is a Nigerian software developer who set out to chase his dreams in tech when he dropped out of a Nigerian higher institution to pursue a degree in Computer Science at the Southern Arkansas University, USA. Born 30th December, 1996, Ori has always had a passion for technology but only fell in love with programming at the age of 17 while studying in a Nigerian University. Despite being faced with gross challenges like unstable electricity, high data cost coupled with poor mobile network, and a pretty old Hewlett-Packard PC that tripped off at will, Ori was able to teach himself how to code and has now mastered various web and mobile technologies with a trail of amazing products and services to show for it. He is currently studying Computer and Information Science at Oral Roberts University.
On the 18th of August 2016, Mr. Ori touched down New York and the rest they say is history. He has been featured on El Dorado News-Times alongside two of his classmates for representing his school in the National Collegiate Honors Council meeting that held last year in Atlanta, Georgia.

A Nigerian Lady has declared that she can do anything to sleep with YBNL singer, Olamide.
She made her intention known in the comment section of the singer’s page.

Some reactions that followed her comment:
Meanwhile, Olamide has said that he dropped out of school but he was able to make it in life by discovering his talent through dint of hard work.

“However with doggedness, perseverance and hard work I was able to find myself where I am today.
“I urge youths everywhere I go to always dare to be different and avoid unnecessary peer pressure.”
Earlier in his brief introduction of the guest to the campers, the state Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun advised the young boys and girls to be diligent, hardworking and be consistent in whatever they do.
Amosun who was represented by the State Commissioner for Information and Strategy, Otunba Dayo Adeneye advised them to strive for the best in their academic pursuit.

In response to this, the new WhatsApp beta version 2.18.69 is extending the time duration from 7 minutes which is 420 seconds to 4096 seconds which is about 68 minutes and 16 seconds or better put, 1 hour, 8 minutes and 16 seconds.

A party in the Heights turned deadly early Sunday morning, but police say this fatal shooting has a bizarre twist. Houston police were called to an incident at 300 W. 23rd and Rutland Street around 1:30 a.m.
The Police in Houston, Texas, say a man who put on a bulletproof vest at a party has been killed after another man attending the party fired a shot at him.
Police are searching for the man who fired the fatal shot early Sunday.
Investigators say forensics tests will determine if the gunshot went through the vest or struck an uncovered area.
Houston Homicide Sgt. Mark Hollbrook said while it’s unusual for people to put on body armor and play with guns at a party, “these things happen sometimes.”
Hollbrook added;
“One of the residents at the party puts on a bulletproof vest , and another male who has a gun winds up shooting him.”
“We are just trying to identify the shooter and talk about what happened and if he was really dared to do it and lets talk to the one witness who fled the scene.”
The name of the victim hasn’t been immediately disclosed, while the police believe about six to eight people were attending the party.
Former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has once again lambasted the ongoing Big Brother Naija 2018 show.
Reno Omokri dragged the housemates for filth, whom he referred to as darkness and morally bankrupt.
The learned author and lawyer went further to ask if such youths were carefully selected to be awful ambassadors of Nigeria or it was just by coincidence.
He tweeted;
”I am ashamed of the housemates of BBNaija. They are not good ambassadors of the Nigerian youth. May we never have a generation who behave like them. What is it Igbo people say when they are disgusted? Tufiakwa
I mean, did the organizers deliberately search for the most morally bankrupt youths to spotlight? Is depravity now a virtue?
Teddy A and BamBam
Let me end by saying that the housemates of #BBNaija are no stars. They are darkness. They are a blight on the nation, foaming in the mouth their indecency and Nigeria must not celebrate them at all. Not at all. #TheAlternative
So when we have these means of positively projecting Nigeria, why will our millennials prefer to entertain a nation with dirty pornography in a toilet of all places!”
Days ago, he reacted to the viral video of the toilet sex, housemates Bam Bam and Teddy A were involved in, and here’s what he said on that ;
“When I was a child, only animals had intercourse in the open for all to see. Now I am an adult, Nigerians call people who publicly have intercourse in a toilet, stars! If they are stars, it must be very dark over Nigeria! We have a culture. Not everything from the West is good!
“Instead of copying the West and Asia in science and technology, we want to copy and overtake the West in public indecency like#BBNaija where we celebrate youths publicly having intercourse in a toilet. It is barbaric. It is un-African. Animals not humans should behave that way,”.
A Nigerian man reportedly took his life because he caught his girlfriend cheating on him with another man…… According to the reports on social media, the man committed suicide by poisoning himself on March 3, 2018.

Nollywood Actress, Tonto Dikeh, revealed that she loves food so much more than sex as she shared what she would be having for dinner at an outing with friends.
The 32-year-old mother, who has never been shy of declaring her love for her Son, Andre, might just have another love in her life, and it is Food.
While she recently wrote a loving birthday message to her son; “No one really gets my son to this explosive laughter stage only me and a very very very few other beloved And to see him share that moment with @ladygolfer001 was beautiful but Sister I am extremely Jealous.. I swear I broke a tear lmaoo. I’m such a momster… I am happy he is happy,I will give him the whole world and more••”
She has also written something, declaring her love for food; “I love food thou.. So Much better than Sex”
Recall the actress recently revealed that she’s now born again.. saying the bad things she did in the past, will remain in the past.
Tonto, who recently underwent plastic surgery to fix some parts of her body, preached as though she has become a pastor.
The mother of one took to her Instagram account to write: “An Entirely New Life! Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17).
“The term “born again” isn’t a religious cliché, which connotes turning over a new leaf. When you ask some Christians how they know they’re born again, some would reply: I know I’m born again, because the bad things I used to do, I do them no more. I’ve changed my ways, and now, I behave differently.
“Being born again is much more than that. What you receive when you’re born again is an entirely new life. There’s no such thing as “The bad things I used to do, I do them no more,” because the person who did those things is dead. He doesn’t exist anymore.
“When you received Christ into your life, something actually happened: your spirit was recreated. You were born of the Word of God and of the Spirit of God. You now have the life, nature and character of God. And when a man has the life, nature and character of God, he can only live like God. So, being born again is actually receiving the God-nature; becoming an associate of the God-kind.
“Romans 6:6 says, “Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.” Your old life or nature isn’t suspended; it’s dead; you’ve come up a new man; a new species of being; one that never existed before; one without a past. In the presence of God, everything you were before you were born again, and everything you did before you were born again has no record. This isn’t a promise. This is a statement of fact in the Word.
“If you’re ignorant of this, you could be struggling with your past or with the sins you committed before you were born again. This, invariably, could make you ineffective in the things of God. No; you’re not a sinner. You’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, because you’re born again (2 Corinthians 5:21). Walk in the consciousness of your righteousness, and new life in Christ: “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father.”
Big Brother Naija 2018 housemate, Bambam who emerged the new Head of House, have alongside her strategic partner, Rico revealed reasons why they put up the pair MITO (Miracle and Anto) up for eviction today.
As the head of the house, she has the power to save and swap a nominated pair with some other pair.
Bambam and Rico, were saved from eviction last week by Tobi, the immediate past Head of House, who had surprisingly put up his romantic partner Cee-c for eviction
Bambam and Rico, however, put up Miracle and Anto (Mito) up for eviction, and replacing them with CeeLo (Cee-C and Lolu).
Giving their reasons, Bambam said;
“Miracle doesn’t like me. There’s this thing about him that I don’t really understand.
“The other day he messed the toilet up and when I asked him to clean it that I wanted to use it, he put up an attitude.”
Miracle and Anto
Rico on his part said, “The other day in the kitchen, he came to help me while I was cooking and he was like, ‘hey what can I help you do?’ and I was like, ‘okay help me cut the meat.’
“He started cutting the meat the way I didn’t like. So slowly that I collected it from him and he became angry.
“And he said its like Big Brother has sent me to monitor him in the house, I understand.”
A media consultant for Atiku Media Organization, Na-Allah Mohammed Zagga, has reacted over the photo of Oyo State Governor’s son Idris Ajimobi kissing and fondling his new wife, Fateema Ganduje.
Zagga’s Facebook post below:
Can You Live By Double Standard Without Losing Your Credibility?
Emir Muhammadu Sanusi’s daughter was once ferociously assailed for her “morally offensive” Western style of dressing and one Professor had even demanded her father to apologize for allowing his daughter to bring the Muslim ummah into disrepute. Today, Ganduje’s daughter Fatima is involved in the same “offensive” dressing. In fact, hers takes the biscuit because it involves open caressing, smooching and the fondling of her bristols by her honey Idris Ajimobi!
But these critics are curiously silent. Why? Is telling truth to power now selective or reserved only for soft targets like Sanusi because he is not politically powerful like a Governor? Daurawa, the Hisban boss or the morality police chief, is an unapologetic critic of leaders that offend Islamic values. What happened he has lost his voice, despite being the moral compass of our society? Has his courage crumbled because this time it involves Governor Ganduje’s daughter?
When I criticised the intrusion into people’s private lives, one of Sanusi’s critics and Daurawa’s fans told me that the children of Muslim leaders have no private lives as long as they “offend Islamic values in their dressing.” Then why should these critics crucify some daughters and spare others for the same “moral offence”? You can’t live by double standards without ultimately losing your own credibility. Speaking truth to power doesn’t mean selective memory or indifference to the truth that is not convenient to you.

BBNaija Evicted Housemate, Angel has spoken on his eviction from the house, after he was voted out alongside his strategic partner, Ahneeka on Sunday night.
Angel, who spoke on AfricaMagic on Monday morning, said although he was been regarded as a confused person, it was all down to his game plan.
”I think I brought a lot of wahala to the house because at some point people thought I was doing one thing but I was doing another”, he said.
”I had to connive with a housemate to confuse other housemates, I was really a confused person.
“People really did not understand what I was doing, they thought I was just acting up, they didn’t know it was part of the game”.
When queried on what was his worst moment in the house, the Bayelsa-born housemate said it was difficult putting up with annoying little children.
According to him, most housemates were annoying and he couldn’t talk because he would be described as an old man.
He equally chipped in that not having his guitar affected his game in the house.

Nigerian singer and songwriter – Simisola Bolatito Ogunleye professionally known and referred to as Simi has registered her anger and hurt against the Nigerian government as she says she is tired of how the system works.
Soulful singer Simi, has taken to her Twitter Page to register her anger and hurt against the Nigerian government as she says she is tired of how the system works.
Simi
According to Simi, she used to fight people for talking down on Nigeria. But there’s hardly any basis for that fight anymore.
She tweeted;
How can a government be so wrong that most of the people are mentally exhausted and tired of being Nigerians? There is no value system. Hardly anyone to fight for the little guy. Only people that like to talk about what they want to do. Talk is dirt cheap.
I don’t talk about politics much, but it’s heartbreaking to see how broken many of us are. I used to fight people for talking down on Nigeria. But there’s hardly any basis for that fight anymore. We deserve better.

BamBam.
Last night we saw Ahneeka and Angel leave the Big Brother House as they received the least number of votes from viewers against Ceelo and Lifu.
When Ebuka asked them if they had any idea who nominated them, Ahneeka’s response was ‘everyone’ and that she had told Angel so.
BBNaija’s Ahneeka and Angel
Surprisingly or not so, their departure seems to have been forgotten by the remaining Housemates.
Unlike the previous eviction where we saw uncontrollable tears, this time there was none of that. The Housemates continued with their business as if nothing happened.
Isolated Themselves Much?
Looking back at their stay in the House, the pair has, on a number of occasions isolated themselves from the rest of the Housemates, Anheeka notably.
Even though Angel was visible and engaged with others [more especially when he still had his guitar] he mostly spent his time with Ahneeka, more so when they got to be strategic partners.
For someone who constantly pursued Ahneeka in the House, Rico Swavey took time to reminisce and explain to Miracle and Nina what her relationship with Anheeka was. He added that Ahneeka made it clear that she chose Angel, and even though he liked her, he knew where he stood in that triangle.
As life continues in the Big Brother House we can only be sure they both left with their tell-it like-it is personalities. And even though their void seem to be filled already, many are left heart broken by their departure.
What started as a strategic pairing between Alex and Leo slowly grew into a budding romance, the plot thickens each day and many are concerned that she will end up with a broken heart.
Little Finger
Just like the prolific character in Game of Thrones, Leo posesses many qualities of the rather manipulative on screen sensation. He defnitely knows how to manipulate and play people to his advantage and that is why many of the Housemates feel that his realtionship or “friendship” as he likes to call it is dangerous. Leo is a businessman so he knows what to say to people to get what he wants and orchestrate situations to his advantage.
Opposites Attract
On the flip side, Alex is a very sensitive soul, and is known in the House for her crying and getting down over what seem like small things. She is young and naive and also kind at heart so it is no wonder that she would very easilly get swayed by the charming affections of someone like Leo. His actions towards her are always gracious and loving but as each day passes, it is evident that Alex’s feelings are growing strong. She always wants to be around him, she is constantly doting on him acting very much like they are in a romantic relationship.
Behind Closed Doors
The reality is that all of this is extremely confusing because as soon as Leo gets into the Diary room, he always talks to Biggie about how he has someone outside the House, he reiterates that him and Alex are “just friends” and that the whole situation is under control. This is clearly not what Alex thinksat all because even though he has said it to her, his actions and his words do not meet up. Saturday’s Diary Sessions revealed that almost all the Housemates think that Alex’s affections for Leo are real but his are just a part of the game.
Is Leo realy the only one at fault here, or are they both just playing with fire?
