The wife of the renowned pastor who mistakenly sent her nudes to members of her church using the WhatsApp texting service on mobile phones has reportedly attempted suicide out of embarrassment.
‘Osofo Maame’ who has become a subject of public discussion, especially among members of the husband’s church, was reported to have tried drinking a liquid poisonous substance but for the timely intervention of family relations who have for all this while kept an eye on her after she sent photos and videos of her genitals to them.
According to information gathered by mandynews.com, the woman in her mid-30s who is nursing a 6-month-old baby intended to send the pictures to her husband who was on a trip outside the country only for it to be mistakenly land on the church group.
Worse, the news source said the woman sent a message that reads “It’s all yours when you return” along with the photos meant for the pastor of a prominent Church (name withheld)
To her utter dismay, she reportedly realized her mistake right after pressing the send button on her mobile phone.
Members of the church group who received the photos, videos and message were shocked and outraged. They tried to call up the pastor’s wife, who wouldn’t answer. The then started quitting the group one after the other.
In two separate videos, 58 and 31 seconds respectively, she is seen facing the camera, kneeling, wiggling her waist and fondling herself concurrently.
That was after she was earlier captured in a bath showcasing her thighs among others while capturing what she was doing.
Interestingly, a child believed to be hers is heard crying in the background but the lady who appeared to be enjoying herself turned deaf ears to the child.
Actress Nora Nkiruka Ugo has been reported dead. According to multiple reports, she died over the weekend while battling with an undisclosed ailment.
Actress, Ruth Kadiri who got hold of the news paid a tribute to her late friend and colleague. Here’s what she wrote;
“I’m so scared of putting this picture up, not sure if it’s the right thing to do. You were that girl that made my life change. U where that girl that made me laugh a lot you where that girl that I got so mad at.
You where that girl that was friend to all. I spoke to u last. Week. You were the strongest sick person I know. I’m hurt by your death. My head still aches. Wish death was a thing that could be undone.
I know God will have a new angel that makes him laugh all day and puts a smile on his face. Gone too soon. Rest in peace Nora. And look over all on earth that were genuinely connected to you. #RIPNora”
Tina Ugo, a friend of the decease also wrote a moving tribute on Facebook;
“A STAR IS GONE.
It’s been hard for us all to accept this reality. I’ve been in denial for two days hoping it’s all a dream or that you were playing us all one of your usual Pranks.
You were a TRUE FIGHTER, that fought so hard to live, but I guess the pains and discomfort became unbearable for you two days ago so you succumbed to Death.
Sleep well my SISTER, Nora Nkiruka Ugo, I’ll forever cherish the moments we had.
WE LOVE YOU”
Kosorochi Chris also wrote;
“I remember the first time I met you on a movie set many years ago. Then I was still an assistant makeup artist. I was naive, scared to pieces especially when my Oga then would send me to make the ‘stars’ up, I would be fidgeting and uncomfortable because I didn’t want to mess up their beautiful faces, or the embarrassment they will give you as a new person. But Nora Nkiruka Ugo you were different. The moment you set your eyes on me it was instant love, you took me as your younger sister, most times you would drive me in your pink car to location to the envy of some crew members and of course I was feeling like a star. You made location fun and enjoyable in your cheerful and beautiful nature. I am still very speechless and lost of words. I don’t know how to express the ache I feel right now. Am sorry you left so soon my NorNor??. I pray the good Lord accept your gentle soul and I pray for the grace and fortitude to bear this immeasurable lost for your family and friends?????RIP Nora ???”
President Buhari in a letter has assured a Kano state lawmaker, Senator Basheer Mohammed who recently defected to APC that the ruling parting still has the backing of Nigerians.

A Nigerian professional photographer, Jide Kola, is engaged.. and he proposed to his woman in the most romantic way in Dubai.
His lady who suspected she was about to be proposed to was left “disappointed” after searching for the ring all to no avail.
Read;
Jide had been owing me a vacation to Dubai for so long, in fact I had a Dubai flight ticket that had been rescheduled more than thrice, because there’s always one wedding or the other making him busy. I can’t complain too much, I’m dating a workaholic..
I’ve always wanted an intimate proposal, but with the most important people to me involved – my brother and my best friends. I believe I might have mentioned this in passing and he was attentive enough to catch it (don’t wanna give him the credit of being so accurate with his plan
We packed for the trip, Dubai here we come… Finally! I searched his whole house for a ring, the whole travel boxes… No ring; so this guy won’t propose to me in this our Dubai Waka.
When we got to Dubai, he took me shopping to buy a dress and said we were going to a house party with his long time friend that lives in Dubai, i tried on a few dresses and we arrived at one. I should have guessed.
We left for the party later that evening, his long time friend took us there, and on opening the door to the “house party”; boom! It was our pictures, and balloons and rose petals, with gentle music playing in the background.
He led me to the balcony and I saw four of our closest friends holding balloons. Nobody told me y’all were in Dubai.
Popular Busy Lagos socialite, Roman goddess is officially off the market… as she’s finally walked down the aisle with her white husband.
Roman’s selling point is her curves and big chest… and Recall, she recently shared some photos and videos with her “bae” in Dubai before showing off her engagement ring… and then later announcing on social media that she’d be getting married soon.
The Instagram celebrity who became the center of attraction at Oritsefemi’s wedding last year, has finally walked down the aisle with her white husband.
Such a lucky white man, or perhaps it’s the other way round?!…
Delectable Ghanaian Actress, Salma Mumin has cried out, and she’s currently pleading with any man who is interested in her, to as a matter of urgency approach her and make his intentions known to her.
According to the actress, she has waited for far too long and is now bored living a single life when there are a number of men out there.
The actress made her intentions clear to the public via an Instagram post that read “Dear who I end up with….hurry up….I’m bored….”.
Reacting to the post the post in the comment section, the actress said ” am tired of waiting”; an indication that the actress has waited for quite too long for that right man but he’s never showed up.
The actress has in the past said men find difficulty in approaching her and that men were not proposing to her. Unfortunately, Salma Mumin has pulled down the Instagram post concerning her daring desire to marry.
A student of Gateway Polytechnic, Igbesa, Ogun State, identified as Aaliyah Kennedy died over the weekend, while in labour and the baby didn’t survive.
Friends and family members of the pretty student have since taken to social media to pay their tributes to the young lady.
Nigerian comedian, Bovi has shared his two cents on the ongoing situation between actress Dorcas Shola Fapson and a Taxify driver she alleged tried to abduct and rape her.
He took to his Instagram page to write her an open letter and to, as well encourage Dorcas to keep her chin up and not let the accusations from Nigerians affect her.
He writes to her as a friend that refuses to remain silent “while a section of society bashed you these past few days”.
Read his Open Letter below…
Dear Dorcas,
I’m compelled to write you a public letter because I have an overwhelming urge to participate in the public discuss of your recent episode. As a friend, I will feel I failed you by remaining quiet while a section of society bashed you these past few days. But rather than defend you to a group of people who don’t know you personally and who have made up their minds even in the face of overwhelming evidence, allow me to publicly tell you about your experience, what you did right and what you should have done differently.
First off, your biggest crime in all of this was not fitting into the stereotype! You’ve been dragged in many sections for being bold and courageous under fire. While the taxi driver was taken you to a wrong destination, just because your voice was firm and assertive, it seemed as though nothing troubling was happening. While the driver restrained you from coming down from the taxi, you pepper sprayed him and your voice and resolve was still not broken. This too doesn’t fit the stereotype. If it was a scene out of a movie, the director would probably ask you to scream, cry, be shaken and even beg to be let go. In the eyes of many, you were too bold, too calm, too calculated for a lady. To this I say a big kudos. Don’t stop. Don’t change. Because the fact remains, as far as he took you to a destination against your will in the middle of the night, you were abducted. That is a crime punishable by law. Somewhere, some girl is inspired by your boldness.
Next time though, it will be wiser to get down from the car as quickly as possible. Do not take chances or hesitate. Safety first should be your watch word. Cynthia hesitated in festac. It didn’t end well.
If you had a PR expert by your side the next day, just before you posted those videos explaining what actually transpired, he/she would have worn you a very thick cardigan and wrapped you in a blanket. You would have been asked to speak in a “victim tone”. All this would have been channeled to swing the narrative in your favor. Kudos to you, you weren’t trying to milk the situation, neither were you thinking of the mileage those videos will accumulate. You see, perception is reality and in these parts, your outfit together with your still firm and assertive tone is synonymous with “troublesome girl” “ashawo” “runs”. Pictures speak louder than words. On this issue I think what you should have done differently was to change the outfit. But keep the assertive tone. When I was in Uni my dean of students took one look at me and concluded I was part of a bad gang. In reality I was just broke, hungry, angry and ugly. That’s the power of perception.
We live in a society where women are not encouraged to live in big houses as single ladies so that they don’t scare suitors away. This is basically catering to bloated egos while benching our women. It is a shame but that is our reality. I know you are miffed at the accusations leveled against you. Never let such bother you. Truth is, those who judged and condemned you don’t really hate you. A good majority of them hate themselves. They are filled with hate and they can only give what they have; hate! So understand that it’s never really about you. It’s nothing personal actually.
We are with you. Learn and keep growing. Stay strong and succeed. See you at work.

It’s not even up to 1 hour in the Big Brother Naija House, and Biggie has done a fake eviction already!
Biggie earlier on called all the 20 housemates into the lounge, and then he suddenly informs them that there’d be an immediate eviction.
Housemates were shcocked immediately, as informed the Housemates that those who couldn’t find beds that corresponded with the numbers they received on stage must leave the House immediately.
The Housemates could hardly believe it, with gobsmacked looks upon their faces Leo, Ahneeka, Alex, Vandora, Tobi and Dee-one exit the House with very confused looks upon their faces.
In fact, many of the Housemates smelt a rat and said they knew something was up.
After the six Housemates “leave the House”, they enter the Arena Games room where they find beds, food and drinks laid out for their enjoyment.
The remaining Housemates continue their celebration but with a little more apprehension than before, after seeing how cut throat Biggie can be.
The BBNaija 2018 Reality TV Show, “Double Wahala”, has officially begun, and there’d be 20 housemates battling for the grand prize of N45 million!
YBL brought you First photos from the Launch show at Pearl Hall in Ikeja.. and we introduce you to the 20 Housemates.
