Controversial Nollywood actor, Benson Okonkwo’s personal mantra is, “Be yourself, people don’t have to like you but you don’t have to care” and the actor has put it into action by kicking against Dave Ogbeni’s assertion that Nigerian women are the most romantic in the world.
Handsome and talented Benson, who just gave his career a major boost in a Andy Best’s movie “King of Fools”is careless whether it goes well or not with womenfolks “Let’s be sincere with ourselves, Nigerian women are not romantic.
If they are at all, it is only for money or good looks. Only money and good looks are what make them stick to a man. Apart from those, it’s a big no for me,” he asserted.
So Omo Baba Olowo has said that he won’t be replying his fans’ DMs anymore after a lady claimed that he initiated a chat with her, which he did not.
Davido, who currently is enjoying his time in South Africa called out a female fan, Sheilah Parker, who took to Snapchat to lie about him initiating a chat with her.
The lady took to her snapchat to share a supposed DM the singer sent to her, she captioned the DM with: “No better feeling than waking up to Davido’s text…. We all have tastes and preferences… I love my male friends Black and Moneyed”
The singer then refuted her claims and shared the real screenshot, which showed the lady sent him a DM first.
The singer asked ‘why people are like this?’ before going ahead to prove that the lady was indeed the person who initiated the chat.

In other news, the singer shared a photo on his Instagram page saying he’s getting fatter, meaning the money is starting to show.
Meet lovely Nigerian pilot, Aniema Violet Enahoro, who has made name for herself in a male dominated aviation industry.
The pretty pilot is from Oron in Akwa Ibom state and married to a pilot from Edo state. The lady who worked with Aerocontractors – disclosed that she receives several encouraging and pleasant remarks from Nigerian passengers, mostly women whenever they see her on flight deck.
In an interview conducted some years back, Violet Enahoro revealed how she enjoys being married to a pilot and how they share stories about their work. In her words;
I’m married to a pilot and this works perfectly for me. They say pilots talk about flying a lot. It’s true, it never gets boring, no two days are really the same and usually I can’t wait to get home and tell him about some weird escapade and vice versa ( be at peace, pilots don’t take passengers up and hunt escapades). I also have a 3 year old and another on the way, which means I’ll have to stop flying soon.
Delectable Actress, Liz Anjorin has some words for her fellow women…. and she’s advising every lady to stay in their marriage, even if their husband cheats with their best friend.
“Ladies should be more concerned about what they have in their bank accounts or in their brains before showing off their men to friends or uploading proposal videos on social media. You can’t tell, anything can happen. How good you are in bed or in the kitchen are not enough to satisfy men. Some of them even say worst and evils things about their women when things are no longer rosy.
“Another secret is that, some men derive joy in making their women cry or go through pains. Some men even go as low as sleeping with your house help or friends but that does not make him a bad person neither is it a strong excuse for you to quit. Instead, buckle-up and raise your head, be positive and work harder, better things are ahead of you.”
On maintaining sanity in such situations:
“In case you find yourself in an unpleasant relationship; unpleasant is different from abusive; if you don’t have a better offer yet, don’t quit or start showing him attitude. Who knows, the next man may be more disastrous. We all know that sometimes, some of our past relationships are far better than the one we are into presently.
That’s why an adage says: a bird in hand is better than millions in the bush. Be calm and be steady, make sure you dance or engage yourself in other exercises; pray hard; get a good confidant.”

In what year did you get married?
I got married on November 16, 1985.
How was the crowd like?
It was not a very large crowd on that day. I had a moderate wedding. I think we had about two hundred guests maximum. Even back in those days, people used to have elaborate weddings but I just didn’t want a huge wedding.
What was most memorable about your wedding day?
After getting dressed and was about leaving for the church service, my mum called me to her room and prayed for me and I still remember every word of the prayer. Funny enough, I didn’t cry until when she started crying while I was leaving later in the night and her tears made me cry too.
Usually, the bride is always known to be late, were you late to church on your wedding day?
I wasn’t early to church; I was right there on time but my husband was two hours late. I didn’t have a sleepless night because I slept very well.
Was there any awkward thing that happened on that day?
Well, apart from my husband arriving two hours late for the church ceremony, there was nothing awkward that happened. Although it got to a point when I was being questioned if he’d still come and I kept saying he would until he showed up. He came late to church because of the bachelor’s eve that they had a night to the wedding; they were all tired and overslept.
Was your wedding gown bought in the country?
Yes, my wedding gown was made in Nigeria. It was aso-oke. I got married in Lagos. I didn’t have a white wedding because I was not a fan. I wore a blue dress made from aso-oke and lace.
What are the usual things that happened on your wedding day?
All those things that happened weren’t my business because my mum and cousins handled all of them. I didn’t allow anything to ruin my day at all.
Can you share with us how you spent your wedding night?
Well, yes I slept alone because they were all out partying and I was too tired to stay up with him. I had to sleep early.
Although he later came in to sleep next to me, I didn’t even notice when he came in because I was fast asleep. The stress of the day wore me out. I woke up and saw him next to me.

Victor Muyakane, has in a way become sort of a national hero after saving a physically challenged beggar as he fled from a swarm of bees that run amok attacking Kenyan opposition (NASA) and ruling party (Jubilee) supporters at the Kenyan supreme Court on Wednesday, September, 20.
Muyakane was at the time, covering a demonstration against the Supreme Court ruling that nullified the election of incumbent President Uhuru Kenyatta by his Jubilee supporters for his news network.
City Hall Way was a no go zone for minutes as bees sent Jubilee protestors and the police scampering for safety. But Muyakane carried the disable man and ran with him even as the bees stung him.
Photos of Muyakane saving the crippled man have melted the hearts of many people.
The journalist, who himself was on the receiving end of bee stings had to be rushed to a nearby hospital. He reportedly lost his phone during the melee.
The Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) CEO, Ezekiel Mutua has offered a Kes 10,000 reward for Victor Muyakane for his heroic action.
“This man Victor Muyakane, a reporter with KBC, risked his life to save a disabled guy from the swam of bees at SCOK yesterday. He is a hero and his acts of kindness and bravery represent the best of human virtues. I celebrate him. I personally donate Ten Thousand Kenya Shillings to him as a token of appreciation for this spontaneous show of love to humanity. Whoever knows him kindly inbox me his number. I want to call him personally to celebrate him!” wrote Ezekiel Mutua.
Several other celebrities also commended Muyakane for saving the disabled beggar. Jacque Maribe wrote:
“This is Victor Muyakane…a KBC TV reporter and news anchor…as people scampered when bees attacked people near Supreme Court, he instead dashed to help this disabled Kenyan…never mind the bees landing on him at the time. He, is a hero, a true spirit, we celebrate you!”
“When bees struck … as others reacted and scattered….. he responded …. the difference between Reaction and Responding”
Dennis Itumbi: “Everybody took cover from the bees, but this journalist was the hero. I salute you Victor Muyakane.”

Reality TV star and cosmetologist, Kylie Jenner has been spotted for the first time since the news of her pregnancy broke some hours ago.
The 20 year old was seen with her best friend, Jordyn and the rest of her crew. According to TMZ, the Life of Kylie star is expecting her first child with rapper, Travis Scott.
Her ex, Tyga, upon hearing news of the pregnancy, claimed that he’s the owner of the child but has since deleted his claims.
..and that was how the world did not end today.. Or perhaps, we should wait till 12AM tonight, before jumping into conclusions that those claims were false?
Recall it all started when a Christain Numerologist predicted that the world will end today, 23rd September, 2017.
According to him, verses in Luke 21:25 to 26 are the sign that recent events, such as the recent solar eclipse and Hurricane Harvey, are signs of the apocalypse.
The verses read:
“25: There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars. On the earth, nations will be in anguish and perplexity at the roaring and tossing of the sea. People will faint from terror, apprehensive of what is coming on the world, for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’
“’26: Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.’
Many folks took to Social Media yesterday to react after we all felt the world was gonna end today!

“’26: Men’s hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.’
Following this viral claim by the Christian Numerologist, a popular Radio Show Host, Aaron Rand, has shared his experience with a numerologist who is backing this claim.
Aaron tweeted;
“Man claims world will end Saturday. My producer tried to book him for an interview tomorrow. He said he wasn’t available until next week.”
