A businessman has ditched his brogues for a six inch pair of stiletto heels to wear for work.
Ashley Maxwell-Lam, who recently moved from Queensland to Sydney, Australia, was prompted to change his footwear after his female colleague told him “her heels made her feel powerful”.
Now Mr Maxwell-Lam, a project manager for a major bank, owns nine pairs – five sparkly shoes for nights out and four plain colours for work – leaving him feeling “empowered”.
He told news.com.au: “Exactly what she [his colleague] said rang true. I’ve never felt more empowered than when putting on a pair of stilettos and walking through a marble lobby.”
Describing his look as “dapper feminine”, Mr Maxwell-Lam insists he doesn’t want to become a woman, he just loves the “contrast between masculinity and femininity” which makes people “question things”.
Ashley added: “I’m not going to lie, I like the attention, it’s an out-there thing to do, but it’s not the reason why I do it.”
Ashley claims to receive the most abuse from people within what he described as his own gay community.
He claimed some asked him, “why are you wearing a heel, that’s disgusting, you’re a man?”
Refusing to be slapped down by their comments, Ashley said his mum taught him to be resilient, so he takes “good with the bad”.
While he doesn’t wear heels day in day out, when he has new clients to meet he does make sure to slip them back on.
“It’s a huge talking point, an icebreaker,” he told the news site.
Mr Maxwell-Lam’s choice of footwear may fuel curiosity among Aussie locals, but he could easily strut his stuff on the hilarious money supermarket advert.
The Big Brother Naija house is never short of Drama.
Incase you missed last night’s party, here’s a major highlight for you.
After the Saturday Party at the Big Brother house, things got a little heated up between two love-torn lovers, Tobi and Cee-c.
Tobi accused Cee-C of grabbing his penis but she repeatedly denied the accusation, leading to an argument that attracted other housemates in the Big Brother House.
But at the end of the night, the pair slept together in one bed and they were a lot of touching going on under the duvet.
Blame it on the Alcohol maybe .

Argument About Cee C holding Tobi’s Dick ?♀️ Drama Everywhere Now And Then? Cee C should Come and be going home sef?♀️?♀️?♀️ #BBNaijapic.twitter.com/P5pUk12Fcc
Singer Kiss Daniel, 23, is dating fellow singer, Chidinma Ekile, 26.
The two began dating some time this year, and Kiss Daniel is said to be quite in love and not hiding it.. LIB reports.
Just last night, the Woju crooner shared a video on his instastories showing Chidinma sitting on a bed while fiddling with her phone and laughed as he filmed her. He put a love emoji across her photo.
Happy for them..
Meanwhile, in a recent interview, Kiss Daniel revealed his interest for older ladies.
While speaking with Stargist, the Woju crooner dismissed that age was one of the criteria to consider before falling in love, arguing that what mostly matters in such situation is the ‘chemistry’ between those involved.
“It depends on the chemistry and the level of understanding by both parties. Age is not a barrier when it comes to loving and sharing emotions. So, I will say yes. I can marry an older lover,” he disclosed.
However, the ‘woju’ singer kicked against the trend of becoming a father before actual wedding, saying such was not decent.
He said, “Being a baby father is not a trend. There are several other act that are not baby fathers. For me, my music is prime and paramount. I have a clear understanding of what I want and being a baby father is not part of my blueprint. It’s business from the sun up to the sun down,” he said.
Earlier we posted a report of how Big Brother Naija Love-torn housemates Tobi and Cee-c embroiled in a heated argument after the former accused the latter of grabbing his unmentionables under the duvet. Tobi and CeeC
Well, trust the best twitter version in the World, (Twitter NG) to always render their epic reactions to the claim and here are some screenshots of what was posted on the micro-blogging website ..
Warning – Very Funny Hehe
CEO of Forte Oil, Femi Otedola, is blessed with four children, three daughters and a son. While his second daughter, DJ Cuppy and third daughter, Temi Otedola who is a fashion blogger, are well known in the media, his first daughter, Olawumi, and his only son, and last child, Fewa keep things private.
In pictures, checkout Femi Otedola’s only male heir to his billion dollar estate, Fewa Otedola.
Last year, during World Autism Day on the 2nd April, Temi Otedola shared a personal story on her JTO Fashion blog about living with autism with her younger brother, Fewa.
She started off by saying “Autism Awareness day was launched 9 years ago to raise awareness and conversation about the people living with autism around the globe. with this in mind, I have decided to share my own personal experience with autism.”
Talking about how her parents told them about her brother, she says:
In 2004, my mum called my sisters and me into her bedroom. With the composure only a mother can have, she told us that our baby brother, Fewa, had ‘special needs’. While my sisters asked questions, all I could do was think about what this would mean for me, the already overindulged, youngest of three girls. Thankfully, my selfishness quickly wore off and Fewa quickly became the centre of our family. The role of an older sister always entails some sort of responsibility. However, the role of an older sister to an autistic sibling is a great deal more work. At first, it seemed like every day with him was a challenge, especially for my mother. I remember seeing my mum helping Fewa with simple tasks like brushing his teeth, helping him to get dressed, or feeding him lunch, with each day ultimately ending in exhaustion. Our family has been so blessed to have help from carers, but no one can deny the resilience my mother has had raising Fewa. It is the thing I most respect about her.
On her brother, she says:
Every day, I see him becoming more independent. Our relationship is becoming less one-sided; I can truly say that we are friends. Fewa doesn’t need anyone’s sympathy. He is the most genuine and caring person I know. This is probably why I have never seen Fewa’s autism as necessarily and totally negative, it is a unique characteristic that adds to the complexity of the person that he is
I am not naïve or unrealistic. I certainly have some gnawing worries about the future. Fewa will always need support of some kind. At age sixteen he still requires 24 hour help. I would say that the biggest misconception about autism is that people who have it are socially inept geniuses – Rainman, anyone? Yes, that is true for some autistic people, but there is a reason the official term is “autism spectrum disorder”. It is a spectrum, and it can range from children who are not able to speak at all to children who can go to normal schools.
On coping with Fewa’s autism, she says:
No matter what I do, I need to build my life with Fewa in mind. My parents won’t be around forever, and his care and well-being will become the responsibility of me and my sisters. It is true that consideration for Fewa will always affect the decisions I make in my life. Despite this, Fewa is by no means a burden. These worries do not reduce the immense love I have for my brother who has brought so much joy and shown me the purest form of love. To quote The Bard, “Love sought is good, but given unsought is better.” It is Fewa’s unconditional love that has shaped me into the woman I am today – a sister, a teacher, a carer and a best friend.
Big Brother Naija 2018 housemate, Cee-C in a chat on Saturday with Teddy A had mentioned that she is a virgin and she has never had sex all her life.
Teddy, who didn’t look so surprised in the video, was captured savouring the moment and probably thinking if he should accept what she was revealing to him.
The Controversial housemate said:
”I have never had sex in my whole life. The reason you never hear me talk about sex in the house is because I haven’t done it before.”
However, an alleged ex-boyfriend of Cee-c has come out to say a different story entirely.
In a leaked chat, the ex-boyfriend could be seen having a conversation with a friend who saw the video and immediately brought the attention of the ex-boyfriend to it.
According to the chat, Cee-C is not a virgin and she had always been visiting her then boyfriend to have regular sex. The alleged boyfriend then went ahead to call her a Drama Queen and claims she only wanted to pretend as a holy person on TV, whereas she isn’t, according to what they must have shared.
After their usual Saturday Night party in the Big Brother Naija House yesterday, Nina confessed to fellow housemates, Cee-C and Ifu Ennada that the last time she had sex was on Friday.
This is coming after Cee-C declared that she’s a virgin and she has never ever had sex before. The controversial housemate disclosed this in a conversation with fellow housemate, Teddy A.
CeeC said, “I have never had sex in my whole life. The reason you never hear me talk about sex in the house is because I haven’t done it before.”
But moments later, Tobi joined the conversation and told Cee-c she was lying about being a virgin. He also said she once held his manhood while they were making out. A claim she quickly denied.
She said she never held Tobi’s manhood and Big Brother should show videos. Tobi who seemed confident about his claim also wanted Big brother to show videos.
Watch the video below where Nina said that last time she had intercourse was on Friday;
Meanwhile, Nina was on Thursday night caught giving oral sex to Miracle….. and some viewers have questioned Nina’s morals after clips suggested that she gave Miracle oral sex.
Others are of the opinion that Miracle should have controlled himself by reminding Nina that they are on Tv.

Hendrey :”Sex go end Nina case but wait ohh how are we sure its not miracle that is forcing her?
Jaydee: ”Nina has forgotten she’s on TV …she needs to calm down.”
Chinwea6:”And to think they just finished hailing their mums. These kids could have just respected their mums even if they don’t have any form of shame for themselves.”
Tweetavenger : ”But miracle is the pilot of this minaship he has to establish someome authority and talk to her that this is a live show.. When they come out even if its monkey style he will giver her no wahala. ”
@OmoMusty, ”Girls like Nina don’t have eyes for one goes for the best bidder,mo love affection.once Bbnaija is over there love story comes to an end.
Mina I beg you guys please don’t do this. you guys have practised self control for long abeg. Miracle should have stopped her.

However, Tobi and Cee-c have seen their relationship falling apart in recent days for various reasons.
In a chat with Cee-c yesterday, Rico, who looks to be developing feeling for her, said “There’s something I will like to tell you.”
Cee-c said, “What is it?” And Rico continued, I dreamt, and you were kissing me.
Cee-c smiled and said, “You have been thinking about it.”
Rico said, “No never! Never for once have I thought about it. In case it happens, just know I have told you.”
This time, Cee-c only looked straight into his eyes with no further comments.

Billionaire media mogul, Oprah Winfrey has given her reason why she never had a children of her own – according to the sexagenarian she doesn’t have motherly instincts.
She says she believes she would have been a terrible mother because she can’t communicate with anyone who cannot speak. Winfrey shared her decision not to have children during a sit down with Gwyneth Paltrow‘s first episode of “The Goop” podcast.
She told Paltrow that she could never have raised two babies like Paltrow has done because raising babies would have been too frustrating.
“I don’t think I would have been a good mother for baby children, because I need you to talk to me, and I need you to tell me what’s wrong,” she said. “I can’t just figure it out. I knew this about myself.”
I was always better with kids once they turned two-and-a-half, three, I had a real resonance with them. Gayle (King) was like, ‘Don’t you love babies?’ I was like, ‘Oh, babies are fine.’ It didn’t feel like [having babies] was for me.” she said
Oprah Winfrey whose real name is Orpah Gail Winfrey, was born on the 29th of January 1954 – she’s an American media proprietor, a talk show host, an actress, producer, and philanthropist.

In the same vein, find below a Whatsapp conversation between a Nigerian car dealer, possibly a scammer and a potential client.. The conversation got us cry-laughing…
In the thread which can be seen below, the dealer tries to sell a car for his potential client who asks to see photos of what he’s about to purchase, what happened thereafter will have you laughing your ribs off.
The client then proposes a payment method and says the merchant, shouldn’t be worried about shipping fees, as he’ll take care of that by himself – this was where things got really hysterical as the dealer couldn’t understand what his client meant by ‘shipping’.
He mistook the ‘ship’ as a noun – ‘ship’ on the sea – and even went further to explain to his client that he’s selling a car to him and not a ship.

The Federal Polytechnic, Auchi, Edo, on Friday said it expelled 18 students and rusticated 62 others for various misconducts in the 2016/2017 academic session.
The Rector of the institution, Dr. Sanusi Jimah, made this known at the 36th matriculation of the 2017/2018 students in Auchi.
Jimah said the institution had zero tolerance for social vices and that the management would not hesitate to sanction any student found wanting.
He warned, “students who present fake credentials to gain admission will not be comfortable here.
“All the credentials you presented during the registration process will be verified.
“If the credentials are found to be fake, the penalty is expulsion from the Polytechnic.’’
The rector said 11,173 students comprising 6,318 for National Diploma and 4,855 for Higher National Diploma courses were admitted into the institution for the current session.
He advised the students to shun cultism, violence, examination malpractice and other vices.
He also urged them to imbibe dialogue, peaceful co-existence, discipline and hard work to excel in their studies.
“You have come into this institution at a time that management is on a mission for transformation.
“This transformation agenda is directed at ensuring that corrupt practices are eliminated in the conduct of academic and other transactions in the polytechnic.
“The management will come down on staff who extort money from students to enhance their examination grades or request gratifications to pass students.
“Just as we hold staff accountable for proper conduct, so also management will hold students accountable for discipline and full compliance with the rules and regulations operating on campus,’’ he said.
The rector assured the students that staff and management would provide the enabling environment for them to excel.
He said that the institution would continue to promote quality education through the provision of modern teaching and learning facilities.
“Beginning from this session, the polytechnic is putting finishing touches to the take-off of computer-based examination for all ND 1 and HND 1 students.
“This will advance the students’ knowledge on the use of electronic means of learning.
“Computer is of immense benefit in today’s world driven by information technology, and it reduces sharp practices to the barest minimum.’’

With his high ambitions and passion, it’s possible that Oga Jay could get his aspiration of saying “I do” to one of the most reputable musicians in the world… or don’t you think so too?

According to Ojeligbo, he also goes to London just to charge his phone ;
Nigerian politician and religious activist, Reno Omokri has once again taken to social media to attack President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to Reno, in his column in Thisday Newspaper today, he disclosed that based on academic record, Buhari won’t even be hired to manage a KFC outlet.
“President Buhari, who is 76 years old this year (his football age), has taught me awisdom. It is foolish to equate wisdom with age. For most people, even some Presidents, age comes alone. Based on academic record, Buhari won’t even be hired to manage a KFC outlet.”

What possessed President Muhammadu Buhari to go to Ghana for the 71st Independence Anniversary and promise them to help fight corruption?
Does the President not have sane advisers?
My grandmother is Ghanaian and if I wanted to, I could qualify for Ghanaian citizenship. I know my people. They do not suffer fools gladly. You should have seen the way Ghanaians ravaged President Buhari after his faux pas.
Ghana is #81 on this year’s Transparency International’s Corruption Perception Index, while Nigeria is at #148. My question to President Buhari is how can you help a nation that is less corrupt than yours to fight corruption? It is like a demon offering to deliver a pastor!
That is how the same Buhari disgraced Nigeria after the 2016 Munich Shooting by promising to help Germany fight terrorism.
Imagine Nigeria that is rated as the 4th most terrorized nation in the world, wanting to help Germany, one of the least terrorized nation, to fight terrorism. Who should help who? Buhari should be in a retiremeho? Buhari should be in a retirement home, not at our Presidential Villa.
Would President Nana Akufo-Addo have brought back a notorious fugitive who just happens to be the biggest thief in the civil service? Would he have reinstated him and given him double promotion?
Would President Akufo-Addo have retained a Secretary to the Federal Government who was caught red-handed pilfering funds that belonged to Internally Displaced Persons?
Would President Akufo-Addo do nothing when a leaked memo revealed that $24 billion worth of contracts had been awarded by the state oil firm without due process?
Would the Ghanaian President appoint a minister who was indicted by a panel of inquiry? A former governor who claimed to have spent $500,000 on a one-day dinner for a Nobel laureate?
In fact, let me address the Ghanaian President directly.
Dear President Nana Akufo-Addo,
I gather President Buhari promised to teach Ghana how to fight corruption. Transparency International says corruption has increased in Nigeria under Buhari! Is this your teacher?
If anyone should be teaching anybody, it would be President Akufo-Addo who should teach President Buhari. Have you ever heard him speak? His diction and elocution would make you proud to be an African. His academic qualifications are intimidating. And his courage is legendary.
Look at the way he confidently and politely told off French President Emmanuel Macron when the latter visited Ghana recently and thought he could speak down to African leaders as usual. Perhaps Macron thought that Nana was Buhari!
Based on academic record, Buhari won’t even be hired to manage a KFC outlet. Based on business record (his 150 cows that don’t increase) he won’t qualify for a bank loan.
He also failed as a military leader, yet, Nigerians expect this man to prosper Nigeria! It is like expecting a man who could not pass mathematics to teach you how to pass additional mathematics.
Spin him however you like, the fact remains that you cannot point to one thing in his life that Buhari has run successfully. I apologize in advance to Buharists, but truth is bitter!
There is no area in which President Buhari can be in a position to teach Ghana. Is it the economy? He has failed woefully in that regard. Does he want to teach Ghana how to take their economy into recession?
The greatest myth of the Buhari era is that he has been a success in the war against terror. Big lie. Turns out that the man has been negotiating with Boko and possibly paying huge ransoms to them to achieve the cosmetic successes he boasts about in the anti-terror war.
All those so-called ‘repentant’ Boko Haram fighters were not all released because they had disavowed terror. No! Many of them were released in exchange for hostages taken captive by Boko Haram.
It is also strongly suspected that Boko Haram’s resurgence is the result of ransoms paid to them by the Buhari administration.
A good example is Shuaibu Moni, a Boko Haram commander captured by the gallant men and women of the Nigerian armed forces and released by the ungallant Commander-in-Chief, President Buhari.
Now the man has surfaced in a new video, threatening the Nigerian state. He can be seen in this video surrounded by well-fed fighters brandishing expensive and sophisticated weapons probably bought with the ransoms allegedly paid to Boko Haram by the Buhari administration.
Like Nigeria, Ghana also experienced killings by killer Fulani herdsmen, but unlike Nigeria, Ghana dealt with the issue decisively. President Akufo-Addo famously gave a shoot at sight order on any cattle found grazing on farmlands.
Not done, he gave an order to shoot on sight any armed Fulani herdsman. So effective were his orders that in January 2018, Fulani elders in Ghana were shown on television, begging the government to give them a grace period of just two days to evacuate their remaining cattle. The video is still available on YouTube for those who care to watch.
Meanwhile in Buhari’s Nigeria, the representatives of herdsmen have the guts to go on television to justify herdsmen killings without fear of being arrested.
Prominent members of Buhari’s government have openly made statements showing obvious bias in favour of killer Fulani herdsmen and the killings continue without let even as President Buhari gives empty assurances that he would stop them.
One of the upper cuts that President Buhari received from Ghana was from Ghanaian comedian, Afia Schwarzenegger, who asked the President to get a bible and read Mathew 7:3-5.
Let me help the President with that verse:
“And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” (Matthew 7:3-5 King James Version).
Perhaps I should have put it in cartoons since the President’s spokesman told us that is what the President prefers to read.
So what then does Buhari have to teach Ghanaians?
Thankfully, after frolicking in Kano while his nation is in mourning, President Buhari has decided to visit those frontline states currently struggling with insecurity chiefly caused by killer Fulani herdsmen.
I must commend President Buhari for following the example of Governors Wike and Fayose in visiting Taraba, Benue and other states gripped by killer Fulani herdsmen killings.
If President Buhari can’t show good leadership, at least he has shown that he can be a good follower! Well done!
But it seems that the more Boko Haram kills, bombs and abducts, the more Buhari claims to have defeated them. Is Buhari an ostrich that buries its head in sand? Wake up sir.
You run a more corrupt and less secure government than the PDP according to international ratings agencies!
Let me end by saying that President Buhari, who is 76 years old this year (his football age), has taught me a lesson about equating old age with wisdom.
It is foolish to equate wisdom with age. For most people, age comes alone. Not everyone who is older than you is wiser than you.
My advice to President Nana Akufo-Addo of Ghana in the light of President Buhari’s offer to mentor him is that when seeking a mentor and counsellor, look for someone wise, not someone old.
Absalom followed old Ahotophel’s advice and he was destroyed, and David took young Abigail’s counsel and he was saved. At age 30, Joseph gave Pharaoh the advice that saved Egypt. Never confuse age with wisdom!
Reno’s Nuggets
Courtesy is never wasted. Always be courteous to people of low status. Don’t treat a gateman, a cleaner or a waiter like dirt. Respond when they greet you. Even greet them first.
How you treat those who can’t help you is how God will treat you. It was a prisoner that God used to make Joseph the Prime Minister of Egypt.
It was Naaman’s house maid that introduced him to Elisha who God used to cure his leprosy. It was how he treated Lazarus that sent the rich man to hell.
There is nothing like a high or low man. Only statuses are high or low. But we will leave our status on earth when we die #RenosNuggets.

I was of thinking it’s one Nigerian senator, not knowing it’s one SUG wannabe senator.
@BlaqBeeuutee
You sound pathetically immature already. I pity any lady that puts up with you. I hope you know what goes around comes around. Social media be making a lot of people lose their senses. To think you posted this is shocking though. Please see a therapist asap???
Well, it’s clear a lot of you lack sense. So glaring but showing the world how senseless you are is worrisome. Everything is all jokes to y’all till you grasp the level of things you post. Seems stupidity in this generation is a norm though. *shrugs
Beautiful photos of a female Member of the National Youth Service Corps wearing a camouflage top to go with her khaki trousers have made rounds on the internet
Youth corpers are known to occasionally modify their khaki uniforms into more fashionable bespoke designs and rock them outdoors.
The corpers, especially the female members, have over time dared to challenge the norm by re-fashioning their outfits including actually re-sewing their khakis into what they consider more ‘wearable’. Sometimes, they are spotted a different kind of top on their khaki trousers.
Now, this pretty Nigerian lady apparently a serving corp member, has joined the trend as she shares photos of herself online wearing her uniform but not in the traditional way. She is seen wearing her khaki trousers atop a military camouflage as she strikes a pose for the camera.
Though looking really pretty in the photos, many social media users fear she might get the beating of her life if by any chance a soldier sees her.
See more photos below:
To be honest, the lady is really beautiful ,,,,, Dontcha think so ?
Ifeoma Oledibe has every reason to be grateful to God after He delivered her from untimely death recently – Ifeoma narrated how she narrowly escaped being crushed to death after she fell out of a moving bus and was run over by another vehicle in Awka, Anambra State capital on Thursday, March 8.
To show gratitude to God for keeping her alive, she took to Facebook to write,
Till now, I still lack words to express my profound gratitude to God, for delivering me from an untimely death today. Yes, u read right, I would have been somewhere in a mortuary by now if not for his miraculous intervention. If not this merciful God, my pictures would have been flying around with RIP tag since morning. Friends glorify this God for me!
I can’t help but shed tears as I am typing this, they are tears of joy. Joy of still being alive after death failed in bargaining for my life today. The same path so many have trod on and received RIP, but I received ”you have a big God!”
Can someone help me and brag about this God for a while…..He’s the Covenant keeping God, Miracle working God, The help of the helpless, The Elshadai, The mighty man in battle, The Ocean divider, The Rose of Shalom, The rock of ages!!!! He’s bigger than all these names, friends praise this God for me!
One of the pictures below, is the screenshot of the status I made this morning, before I had the encounter, as if I knew what is going to happen. And indeed, he proved to me that he’s the unfailing God. Friends thank this God for me!
She continued,
I stopped a mini bus on my way to school this morning, I personally don’t like staying by the door, but being that it was the only space left, coupled with the fact that I was also in a haste, I decided to manage the place, I lowered my head to enter but I ended up hitting my head on the frame of the vehicle (I wonder when I became that tall) I don’t need to tell you how painful that stuff can be. Anyway we took off, but there was this inner voice I shunned, which was telling me that it could be a bad omen, that I should get down from the bus, well like I said, I shunned it. The worst part is that there was no grip for me to hold, yet the door was not closed so I held the front seat.
We got to the ”beautiful gate”, (if you know Unizik very well you should know this gate, Unizik’s first gate when you are coming from Amenyi or Agu-Awka, you will also know how busy that major road can be), the driver just swung to his left forcefully, everything happened so fast that can’t even explain how it happened, but all I know is that my hand slipped from the seat I was holding, I lost balance and fall out of the bus, I can also remember shouting J.. E.. S… U.. S as I was falling. An inner voice again said, ” so Ifeoma this is how u ended up” I thought I had been crushed by the vehicle that was following us, I thought I had died. But who is he that speaketh when the Lord has not spoken?
As I opened my eyes, I was expecting to see myself in another realm, with my spirit floating, but to my greatest surprise, I found out I am still in that environment, and very conscious. I looked back, the vehicle that was following us, just halted few feet away from me. I checked myself, it was just that slight bruises on the photo below, no fracture or any other serious thing, even the phone I was holding has no scratch on it, it was only the watch I was wearing that broke off from my hand, (which I didn’t even bother to pick up) …..
As the other bus driver was busy scolding our own driver on how recklessly he drove, and the passengers were praising God, I was too shocked to cry or talk. I was wondering….. what if the other driver couldn’t stop, what if he had ran over me, what if I had broken my head, what if my clothes had get hooked somewhere in the bus and I got dragged along…. So many what if. It could only be but God that can perform this kind of miracle!! Everyone was amazed because a lot of people have lost their lives through that way.
As you are already thanking God for me please, I want you to learn something from here, if you must stay by the door of a public bus, make sure it has a grip where u will hold, better still insist on the door being closed. And you as a driver, I hope you know that the vehicle manufacturers that attached the grips are not stupid, neither are they idiots to have made the door closable, if your bus’ grip has fallen off, fix it back, make sure you close the passengers’ door before you start your engine. All those little little things can be an architect of a premature death.
