The order of the day on Social Media is scam, the other day, we brought you screenshots of a scammer who cloned Ini Edo’s Facebook account, and tried to scam a reader of N50,000. (See the screenshots here, if you missed it).
Now, a reader has shared with us, screenshots of the conversation he had with another scammer, who pretends to be hushpuppi.
The scammer uses the Twitter Handle, @Hushpuppiray to scam unsuspecting victims. He tells his victims to send money to his manager, so he can double them.
When you do, you’d get blocked, and there’d be no way to recover your money.. Because hushpuppi has warned the public, that HE HAS NO TWITTER ACCOUNT.
President of the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has described as sinful, the act of Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose a Christian, wearing the Muslim regalia, to the Eid ground for the Sallah prayers on Friday, September 1st. A photo of Fayose wearing the Islamic regalia above.
In a statement released yesterday, Akintola condemned Fayose for using the religious gathering to deliver political a speech which according to Akintola is an “executive hocus pocus, highly sacrilegious and unduly provocative. It is Act I, Scene I in the Theater of the Absurd.” Akintola said Fayose came to the Eid ground to campaign for the next person who would take over his office.
He added that electorates now have to demand a psychiatric test to be conducted on those that wish to assume political office.
His statement in part reads “He has delivered several anti-Muslim speeches. His general attitude and body language to Muslims of Ekiti belie his status as the state governor.
He has also demolished mosques out of sheer desire to eliminate all Islamic landmarks from Ekiti. So who is Fayose deceiving? The fact that he offered advice concerning who Muslims should vote for in the coming Ekiti 2018 election in his speech at the Id ground reveals Fayose’s real motive. But that is his undoing. Delivering a political speech in a serene atmosphere and on a sacred ground is sacrilegious.
Fayose has also politicized religion. Who are Fayose’s advisers for Allah’s sake? Or is it that he does not listen to them? It is most likely that he doesn’t listen to anyone. Like every bully, Fayose acts on instinct. He tries to think later though.
Fayose has abused the turban and arrogantly violated Islamic wardrobe etiquette. It is an insult for him to have so boldly dressed himself up like an Imam on Id ground. Only a titled Muslim leader or an Islamic scholar can dress like that. Fayose has failed to respect a major Islamic decorum.
Can any political leader put on a pastor’s cassock and clerical collar without causing uproar? Fayose has shown that he has no respect for Muslims or their religion.
He derides Ekiti Muslims yet he tries to con them to vote for his party. On a final and very serious note, we suggest that in view of our experience in the Third Republic, it has become necessary, from now onward, for the electorate to demand certificate of psychiatric examination from candidates seeking political offices.”
Ghanaian actress, Juliet Ibrahim who spends as much time as she spends in Ghana in Nigeria is donating a N1m to victims of Benue flood.

Waking up to news about so many natural disasters happening around the world has been extremely devastating. The most recent ones that struck me were ‘Hurricane Harvey’ in Houston Texas, the mudslide’s in Sierra Leone, and now the flooding in Makurdi.
Many families have lost everything, and even worse, many lives have been lost. I’ve once lived as a refugee, and I know what it means to work for something, and lose it all in the blink of an eye. Hence my decision today, to donate. Starting with the most recent and nearest, I will be donating the sum of 500,000 Naira and another 500,000 Naira on behalf of The Juliet Ibrahim Foundation, to the Makurdi flood victims.
I am also using this opportunity to challenge my fellow colleagues, friends, and fans to join in. Let’s help out by donating to this cause. #MakurdiFloodReliefChallenge
I need my friends to step up to the challenge. Once you’ve accepted the challenge, simply post or tweet stating you have accepted and then tag those you’d like to challenge. You don’t have to announce the amount you are donating. The goal is to raise 10 Million Naira.
Celebrities are doing their bit abroad for the ‘Hurricane Harvey’ victims, and I pray we can also do it over here for the Makurdi flood victims.

Some Nigerians have taken to social media to call out Dominos Pizza, after they all suffered severe diarrhea, after consuming their pizza.
The Lady Identified as Adaora Ikokwu, took to her Instagram to write;
“So I and a few people had pizza from the old dominos at Lekki phase 1 on Saturday and I have been having diarrhea and throwing up since then. I am currently receiving treatment.
I went to dominos pizza to lay a complaint with another victim and they acted so non-chalant, insisting that they didn’t receive any other complaints.
Another friend of mine also randomly mentioned that she had ordered pizza from the same place on Saturday and has been suffering from diarrhea.
They also refused to provide their “food handlers” test certification after I demanded saying it’s at their head office. Isn’t that supposed to be made available to clients upon demand?
What agency is in charge of checking these restaurants and fast-food chains in Nigeria?”

We really do NOT understand Gifty one Kobo.. She’s been giving Mr 2Kay tough time..
First, Mr. 2kay claimed Gifty as his Girlfriend, when the Big Brother Naija reality TV show was still ongoing, and she was still in the house.
Moments after she was evicted, Gifty denied ever dating the singer, they went head-to-head on social media, and we thought that was all.
Of recent, Mr 2kay in a new interview with HipTV, he declared that he personally made Gifty what she is today. He said;
BBNaija Gifty and Singer, Mr. 2kay.
“Getting to where she is today, I supported her, all glory to God. Even when I got her in my video it was to support her, to see that she grows from where she was to another level”.
He also went further to say he opened all her social media accounts for her.
“I opened her Instagram for her, I opened her Snapchat for her, I opened her Twitter page for her. The only thing I didn’t open for Gifty was Facebook. I did all that for her to support her. Few days ago when someone needed her for something I gave her number but if she was in my position she would not give my number out”.
He also claimed Gifty was living with him before she left for Big Brother.
“It was from my house to Big Brother, she came back from Big Brother back to me house”.
Now, one of Gifty’s follower on Instagram, mentioned her, and asked her to make a comment on the issue, But then, she blatantly said she has no idea who Mr. 2kay is.
Minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, has stated that the Federal government is planning on reintroducing Bicycle riding in the Federal Capital Territory of the country.
The Minister made this know as he spoke at the end of the 15th meeting of National Council on Transportation with the theme: ‘Efficiency of Inter-modality in Transportation: Panacea for Economic Recovery.” in Sokoto state yesterday Monday, September 4th.
“The National Council on Transportation is a policy making Council and we have approved that we should do a pilot project on bicycle riding in FCT because it is the only city that has facility for bicycle riding. We decided that we do it in Abuja because if you check, nearly all the roads in Abuja have lanes for bicycle. It is there in China and UK. It is an investment that would help reduce the number of passengers that are looking for modern form of transportation within the cities. Other states that want to do it must provide facility before they can proceed because we want to separate cyclists from the roads and some motorists can be very impatient with them. So states that want to go ahead can do that. But they must provide lanes for bicycle so that we don’t have numerous accidents.” he said
Former Minister of Transport, late Ojo Maduekwe came into office in 2001 and introduced bicycle riding in Abuja when he was canvassing for Nigerians to explore other means of transportation order than just cars and buses.
Well, well, looks like PMB is not all that cut out for all these 21st century electronics, Sai Baba likes to keep his gadgets retro! Hehe – Nigerians couldn’t help but express their wonder after seeing this photo of PMB watching the super eagles match against the indomitable lions which ended in a tie.
Mr. President watched the Nigeria-Cameroon match at his Daura residence in Katsina State and a while after the match, he shared a photo on Twitter of him seated in his living room while watching the match…
And Nigerians just couldn’t let what they saw go to rest… See some reactions below:
A 44 seconds video clip currently making rounds online, shows two Super Eagles stars, Victor Moses and Ahmed Musa, apparently snubbing president of the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF), Amaju Pinnick, on arrival in Yaounde, Cameroon.
The Nigeria national team arrived in the country Sunday afternoon, ahead of their 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Indomitable Lions, billed for Monday evening.
As the eagles and coaching made their way off the aircraft, they exchanged greetings by shaking hands with Pinnick and other officials – however, Leicester City’s Musa seemed to walk past the NFF president without acknowledging him and Chelsea star, Moses did the same some moments later.
Model and 2016 Mr University Africa Eastern King, Eroh Vickeyblazze is always said to be MAVIN’s recording artiste, Korede Bello‘s twin wherever he goes and looking at these photos of the duo side by side, you can tell why.

A Nigerian lady is looking for how she can tighten her privates, after her boyfriend complained of it being wider.
Apparently, the lady traveled out of the country for about 3 months, only to come back to have se-x with her boyfriend, and he complained of “it” being wider.
Her Boyfriend claimed this isn’t how he left the “vjay”.. Read her story below, as shared by Love doctor, Joro Olumofin.
So my bf and I have been together for 1yr4months now. The se-x was great Joro before I went to spend the holidays with my family in Spain for 3months. Fast forward to when I got back 2 weeks ago, my period was on and on the last day of my period which was the fourth day I got back from holidays, we had se-x and I wasn’t feeling very comfortable because of the blood that was everywhere, so I told him to stop which he didn’t decline.
Ihm I went to the toilet and when I got back from the toilet, I realized his mood had changed. I asked him what happened and he said my Vjay isn’t the way he left it and he wasn’t enjoying it. I WAS SHOCKED. I asked him HOW? He said it’s wider. I didn’t even go down with any guy while I was away.
Anyway, we slept that night thinking it was because of the menstruation ish, so the next morning around 4am, we had sex again but it was an epic fail Joro. I was just on the bed crying because how can my vjay be wide when I haven’t slept with another guy since we met?
Ever since he told me joro, I’ve been self conscious and I’ve been avoiding him.
Joro ever since we met, I’ve never had sex with another guy NOT even a kiss, I’ve been faithful and loyal to him alone. Some of Joro nation may be thinking I’m lying, that how can a lady’s vjay be wider without sex!!…I’m saying the honest truth here gus. HOW CAN MY VJAY BE WIDER THAN BEFORE when I haven’t had se-x in 3 months?
I’M CONFUSED… HAS IT EVER HAPPENED TO ANY LADY BEFORE AND HOW DID YOU GET OVER IT PLS?/ DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO TIGHTEN THE VJAY please?
The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development has declared that undergraduates of Agriculture institutions must show their farms before they are allowed to graduate.
The Minister of Agriculture and Rural Development, Chief Audu Ogbeh recently during a meeting with the representatives of the three institutions in Abuja said that henceforth all students of the institutions must be ready to contribute to the economic recovery plan of the present administration through diversification into agriculture, and must develop and own a farm before graduation.
He said:
“Now all undergraduates of the institutions must have a farm to qualify them for graduation. We do not forbid the teaching of electives like some accounting, business administration and so on, but only as subsidiaries.
“The main courses must be agriculture, agronomy, botany, animal husbandry, forestry, fishery, plant entomology, breeding, cattle breed improvement, agric engineering, veterinary medicine”
He said that the government is now trying to use academics to solve the problem of food security and will do that through innovations that are expected to come from these institutions.
“There may be an immediate reaction to the innovations we are bringing to bear on your campuses. For example, you may experience a sharp drop in admission. We know many of our younger ones are not too keen on agriculture. It is not attractive enough, they claim. Do not worry about this, and other distractions.
“Attitudes will change because, undoubtedly, agriculture is a profitable business to those who choose the path of patience and endurance. They will come running once they see the prosperity and fulfillment in those who dare to try.
