m112

The Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox, popular Ponzi scheme known as MMM, payment suspension for one month was top on Google search this week, an official said on Thursday.

The Google’s Communications and Public Affairs Manager, Anglophone West Africa, Mr. Taiwo Kola-Ogunlade, made the disclosure in a statement in Lagos.

He said that the search was as from December 7 to 14.

According to him, it is described as a period of shocking realities and rumours, as some of the stories that trended this week include the popular Ponzi scheme MMM, the collapse of a church in Uyo.

He said that the rumour of an air crash and the election of a new president in Ghana, among several others, also got people’s attention online.

He said, “An air of panic started on the Internet, following the news that popular Ponzi known as MMM is suspending further payment to its existing members for one month.

“The anxiety which has followed the decision has been met with varied reflections by people, who see the suspension as an impending collapse.”

Countdown to the Grammys Award and following several months of speculations, the 59th Grammy Awards which would be broadcasted live on Feb. 12, 2017, was filled with as much surprises as expected, Kola-Ogunlade said.

He said that leading the award list was Beyonce, with a total of nine nominations including albums of the year, while Drake, Rihanna and Kanye West got recognised for eight nominations for different songs.

He said that once again, the leading hitmaker and singer, Tekno dropped a new song ‘Rara’ as the year 2016 draws to a close.

He said, “The song which is laced with an afrobeat led tune was produced by Selebobo.

“The song moved away from his regular crooning on women and money and the high life, to a reflection on the state of affairs in Nigeria.”

The Google manager said that Ghana’s presidential election saw Nana Akufo-Addo being elected as president and Nigerians went on Google search to support their all-time jollof rice rival.

He said, “The incumbent president of the country, President John Mahama, has conceded defeat to the newly-elected president who was running for the third time this year.

“Mahama expressed his intentions to help him settle into his new job with ease.”

The roofs came tumbling down and the day that was meant to be a consecration turned into a mourning day, Kola-Ogunlade said.

According to him, the day was meant to be a consecration into a life of service at the Reigners Bible International Church became a trending topic for tragedy after its church building collapsed.

He said, “The incident led to the death of over 200 people with several others sustaining injuries.

“Akwa Ibom State Governor, Emmanuel Udom who was reported to have attended the event, survived with his aide. Authorities are already investigating the incident.”

Kola-Ogunlade said that the Dana Air rumoured plane crash got people’s attention online

He said, “Dana Air came out to deny the report in a newspaper which claimed that one of its plane crashed in Lagos.

“Refuting the report, the management of the airline company expressed that it was a false news, and the pictures used along with the story was of a past incident.”

The Google manager listed other trending stories this week as the regular update search on the English Premier League, news on the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, Mr Nnamdi Kanu.

He said that Kanu stated that the secrets he would reveal at his ruling would ‘sink Nigeria.

Also searched for was Cristiano Ronaldo who again, wins the Balls D’or for the fourth time, as well as the release of the new song, ‘The Ultimate Street Anthem’ by Olamide and Burna Boy.

Google Trends launched in May, 2006, allows one to see how popular, search terms and its demography have been over time on Google.

To Live Long, Avoid Smoked Fish, Roasted Corn, Plantain, Expert Says

roasted-corn

– Martins Ifijeh, ThisDay

For Nigerians to defeat non communicable diseases and live long, they must avoid excessive or continuous intake of smoked fish, roasted corn, roasted plantain and other enticing, but unhealthy foods, the Managing Director, Integrated Medical Centre, Dr. Damilola Familoni has said.

She notes that though these were hard to resist delicacies for Nigerians, they were ladened with cancer causing effects and other disease risk factors which manifests much later in life, stressing that one of the surest prevention methods against cancer, diabetes, hypertension and obesity was adopting a healthy lifestyle which includes healthy living.

Speaking at the celebration of AVON Health Management Organisation at Three, and the launch of its online service in Lagos, she said Nigerians must be educated on what types of foods to be avoided or eaten, as education was key to tackling the rising health indices in the country. “For instance, anyone with Blood type O has no reason eating plantain at all,” she adds.

According to her, “disease burden was becoming prominent in Nigeria, hence it was best to adopt healthcare provision that would make them spend less while getting adequate and appropriate diagnosis, treatment and management of their various health issues.

“All these can’t be addressed by out-of-pocket health provision as majority of Nigerians are living below the poverty line and are unable to afford healthcare. But with health insurance, it is easier to maximally take advantage of healthcare provision. Organisations, governments and individuals should adopt this model if we must reduce incidence of health issues in the country,” Familoni added.

Meanwhile, the Chief Executive Officer, AVON HMO, Mrs. Adesimbo Ukiri said with the launch of the online service, Nigerians can now buy and enroll to health plans from the organisation’s website via their mobile phones, laptops and tablets.

She said: “When we started three years ago, our belief was that Nigerians from all walks of life should be able to access good quality healthcare services when they need it, without financial constraint leading to unnecessary complications and fatalities .

“With our health plans starting as low as N15,000 per year, we have indeed brought quality healthcare services to the average Nigerian. Subscription to an Avon HMO plan means that whenever a covered ill health or accident occurs, the state of one’s finances won’t matter as Avon HMO oversees the healthcare service delivery and foots the bill. By giving people the ability to buy and subscribe online via mobile phones and other devices, we are bringing convenient and affordable healthcare services to everyone.”

She sad with the innovation, the current three to four per cent of Nigerians using health insurance will increase.

If You Really Want To Enjoy Making Love, Try These 14 Positions

Sex positions – Try these, like… TONIGHT. Sure, missionary sex is great. We all love it. But there’s more out there. If you are wondering if there are sex positions you should be trying, the short answer is a resounding yes.

These sex positions are a little less mainstream, but absolutely result in fun to be had.

1. Missionary Done Right

sexpositionsnottrying1

According to many sex experts, women get the most pleasure out of basic missionary sex. There’s nothing fancy about it, but many women said they love the closeness and the intimacy of having their partner’s weight on them, the ability to kiss, talk, nibble, plus a lot of clit stimulation.

“In order for missionary position to be most effective, guys, make sure you’re entering her at the correct angle. This is an important position to master; by going in diagonally — rather than straight in and out — there’s more friction for clitorial stimulation, which is best, since that’s how most women achieve orgasm,” says Coleen Singer from Sssh.com.

“In Kannywood, you can’t touch or kiss woman on set” – Actor, Nuhu Abdullahi

nuhu-abdullahi-2

Popular Kannywood actor, Nuhu Abdullahi reacted to why Kannywood banned actress Rahama Sadau from acting over “immoral” behaviour during an interview with TS Weekend in Kano.

According to Abudullahi, in Kannywood, you can’t touch or kiss woman on set.

Religion and culture come first in Kannywood and people just have to respect the leadership of the organisation.

Excerpts:

There are rules governing Kannywood; recently one of your actresses was banned from acting for featuring in a video tagged ‘Romantic’. I also understand that body contact is not allowed in Kannywood films, could you please throw more light on this?

I think our producers or leaders are in the best position to give details on this.

As a professional actor, do you think your religion should come first?

It’s a rule not to touch, hug, or kiss on set. In fact, religion and culture come first in Kannywood. Basically, we are producing these movies for our Muslim brethren, and it’s against the norms and values of our religion to touch or kiss a lady in a movie, so we must abide by it.

So, you’ve not touched or kissed a woman on set?

Yes, you cannot touch or kiss any woman on set.

But it was rumoured that you kissed an actress on set, how true is this?

It’s a rumour. I didn’t kiss any actress on set.

What are the things you feel should be changed in Kannywood?

There is need to restructure Kannywood. We need discipline among leaders and followers in the industry. The case of Rahama Sadau who was expelled still needs to be understood as a leadership issue. So, you have to respect the leadership of the organisation. In addition, when a leadership is going wrong, there should be advisory council to redirect them.

The Kano State Government recently set up a Censors Board, which suspended many actors for drug addiction and alcoholism; how are you coping with this?

As an actor, it’s dangerous to indulge in illegal acts such as fornication and alcoholism. We are the mirror to the world and therefore should live a life worthy of emulation by our fans.

There is speculation that you are one of the highest paid Kannywood actors, how often do you smile to the bank?

(Laughs) Honestly, I have my bosses like Aminu Saira, and Alli Nuhu. They are the highest paid artists.

MMM top guider, Chuddy Ugorji finally reacts to alleged MMM crash

chuddy7-960x576

MMM top Guider, Chuddy Ugorji has finally spoken out days after the website froze participants’ accounts. Recall his wife first wrote an open letter to Mavrodians but later deleted it From her Facebook Page.

According to him, he woke up on Tuesday and saw the news that accounts have been frozen for a month just like every other person. And that he has always encouraged members to provide help only with their SPARE MONEY and also get help at the end of 30 days.

He is hoping MMM comes back healthier and stronger in 2017. Read his statement below.

Goodday great mavrodians,

This week has not been easy for all of us due to the news update on our POs

As we all know ,the media has been a tool used by anti-MMMites and pessimists to fight against the growth of MMM Nigeria. Unfortunately some ignorant Nigerians who don’t understand what MMM is all about have been brainwashed by the information broadcasted by the media and social networks
Regarding the frozen mavro.

It is clearly stated on the news section on the website
Confirmed Mavro will be frozen for A MONTH .

The reason for this measure is evident. The system needs to prevent any problems that might arise during this festive season and this measure will be cancelled once the festive season comes to an end.

Frozen of mavros does not mean MMM has stopped operations or crashed rather the system has adopted this measure to avoid any mishaps. The support system are working on issues to enhance the effectiveness of the community.
Also let’s note that contrary to what has been published by cheap bloggers, Am not the Admin of MMM but one of the top guiders of this great community. And non of us has access to the site, I woke up on Tuesday and saw the News on my PO like every other person.

The MMM website is been managed in Russia by their control and supervisory team. They are responsible for every decision made, like pairing of participants to provide help and get help, resolving issues on the platform etc.

I have always been passionate about tutoring members and guiders about the ideology of MMM , the rules and the risk; I have encouraged members to provide help only with their SPARE MONEY and also get help at the end of 30 days.

The reason members have to continue in this pattern of provide help and get help process is to ensure the sustainability of the system, because the platform is a peer to peer system, members knows that they own the system and pay only to themselves, There is no CENTRAL ACCOUNT.

Regarding getting help,every guider in the MMM community has a limit to withdrawal and I have never made withdrawals above my limit ,rather have always helped to ensure the growth of MMM Nigeria community.
Instead I have given more to the community through charity works and teaching of the ideology of MMM.

Bloggers who get paid for promoting rumour, when ignorant Nigerians click on their blogs , Google Ad sense pays them per click. Hence they seized this opportunity to enrich themselves even when most of them are participants and have taken more from the community, many of them are involved in uploading Fake Pop’s and multiple accounts all in the bid to frustrate the programme of the community and that is part of what is been looked into and it would be stop so that we have a healthy and stronger MMM NIGERIA in 2017.

MMM founder is a Russian Sergey Mavrodi not a Philippines. I have never been to Philippines ,the stories about going to the Philippines are untrue.

I stand for the true ideology of MMM which is anchored on providing and getting help willingly.
Let’s hope the best and STOP the PANIC! We shall overcome by God’s grace

His wife has also stated categorically that her husband, Chuddy was the man who brought MMM to Nigeria. See Below:

Read how an accident victim was found alive after being in the mortuary for two days

Msizi Mkhize, 28, was walking home with a friend when he was hit in Kwa-Mashu, a township north of the coastal city of Durban, last week.

He was declared dead at the scene of the accident then his body was transported to the Phoenix mortuary, where his body was placed in a fridge.

Imran Keeka, a provincial official for the opposition Democratic Alliance party, said Tuesday:

“When his family arrived for identification purposes a pulse was found in the patient by mortuary staff, who then immediately transported him to Mahatma Gandhi hospital for resuscitation,”

Msizi was resuscitated by nurses and his family was informed of his resuscitation. However, five hours later, Msizi unfortunately died. Understandably, his irate family are now demanding answers.

His Dad Peter Mkhize said:

“I have no words to express how I feel about what happened to my child. “To spend the entire night and morning in the mortuary refrigerator is wrong.”

The distraught dad described the rollercoaster of emotions that began with him arriving at the morgue at 8am to identify his son’s body and was informed some four hours later that his son was in fact alive – only for him to once again be declared dead five hours after that.

Peter added:

“That day will forever be etched in my mind.” And Msizi’s sister Hlobisile demanded to know who originally declared her brother dead, describing the entire ordeal as “painful and stressful for the family”.Keeka said the incident indicated the extent of the problems facing the province’s health department saying:

“What we want to know is what level of training did the staff have who declared him dead? What were the protocols?”Dr Rishigen Viranna, a GP, said:

“There is a concept in emergency medicine care known as the ‘Golden Hour’, where after trauma a patient has the best chance of good outcome if hospital or medical treatment is received within the first hour. “This did not occur in this case. However, the true cause of death will be determined after a post-mortem has been completed.”The South African health department has begun an inquiry into what actually took place at the scene of the accident.

“No government fund is involved in Zahra’s wedding” – Presidency

indimis

Hours ago, presidential spokesman, Garba Shehu posted this message on his Facebook page, read below:

Zahra Muhammadu Buhari’s wedding to Ahmed Mohammed Indimi starting today is a celebrity event to savor any day.

Much as the family wants to make their daughter happy they, however, will not make it a royal wedding.

The President’s family is trying hard to keep it as simple as possible. Wedding Lalle, Fatiha, lunch event for the men and dinner for the women who must have come from far and near and the bride heads to her husband!

In a twist from what was a norm amongst past leaders, the President asked to be given the bill for the food at the banquet. Government, he said, has no business paying for that.

This should be treated as private. His family and personal aides put the money together to foot the bill. No government money in invitation cards, souvenirs or Aso-Ebi. That’s essential Buhari for you!!

Lady Writes Open Letter To Daddy Freeze For Advising His Followers Against Tithing.

freeze-open-letter

We all know how the OAP has been on and on about tithes and fake pastors on his social media accounts, well this lady has a “word” for him.

She wrote:

“Open Letter To @daddyfreeze
I have always loved your airing on @coolfmlagos
But lately I had to turn my post concerning your tithe ministration and judgment on pastors.
But first concerning the Deuteronomy verse of your Bible which says sell your tithe and buy anything you want including beer…..
Bible reading is different from Bible meditation
where you are spiritfilled and your message should convince and not confuse people.
Which is why the Bible is not in support of beer which in the Bible its recognised as strong drink proverbs20:1 proverbs23:29-32 Isaiah28:7
Back to tithe
Malachi3:8 says will a man rob God, yet ye have robbed me. But ye says, wherein have we robbed thee? Reply:in tithe and offerings
Vs 10 says bring ye all the tithe in to the store house. Which can be defined as the church.
Which is why we should obey every instruction, nothing must be left out.
Preaching Against pastors is not your job matt7:1judge not, that ye be not judge, for what judgment you judge, you shall be jugde with measure
your should advice people to go to church where through word of God is preached. Cos not all pastors are corrupt or spending members money.
For those who inbox @daddyfreeze about sexual assault in church why not go report to the police, why cover up fake pastors and why run after miracles that deserves silly request. It is your right as a citizen to report, so they will be prosecuted.
Matt7:5 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 brothers eye.
Avoiding just singing, dancing and miracle church
@daddyfreeze I still cant fathom why you preach against paying of tithe
is it that you want followers to stay at home on Sunday and stop paying tithe in church? and then listen to @coolfmlagos from 8-11am?”

It was gathered the woman put to bed after months of apprehension due to complication arising from the assault by the pastor.

Pastor Igbonazabi of the Living Word Revival Assembly Church in Egbeda, Lagos was arrested and charged to a Lagos court with sexually assault and rape of Esther inside the church premises located at Samuel Banjo Street, Car Wash Bus Stop, Abule-Odo, Egbeda, Lagos.

The Husband
The Husband

The husband, Mr. James confirmed the news as he expressed gratitude to God after the delivery.

Esther was under intense pressure to withdraw the matter before the court because of the negative image it has on the church, but her husband insisted she must first deliver before he could consider any other thing due to the complication.

Though the church management has sacked Igbonazabi from the church, he is still facing trial at the court for the alleged offence.

P.M.EXPRESS had reported that the police at Area M Command, Idimu arrested and docked Igbonazabi for allegedly sexually assault and rape Esther inside the church premises.

messi-and-girlfriend

Barcelona star and world football icon, Lionel Messi is reportedly set to marry his childhood sweetheart Antonella Roccuzzo next summer.

According to Mirror UK, the wedding is expected to take place in their native city of Rosario in Argentina where they met as children through Lucas Scaglia, Antonella’s footballer cousin and a close friend of Messi.

Local journalist Juan Pablo Varsky broke the news on Wednesday on a radio programme.

City newspaper La Capital said it had confirmed the union with a relative of the footballer’s who told them: “It’s true, there’ll be a wedding the middle of next year.”

Leo’s birthday of June 24 is already being talked about as the most likely date. Messi is expected to return to Rosario around June 12 next year after completing a tour with his club.

The entire Barcelona squad is expected to be invited to the wedding along with some ex-players and most of Argentina’s national squad.

messi-and-girlfriend1

The city cathedral is being touted as a possible venue for the wedding with the subsequent party expected to take place at the Messi family home in Arroyo Seco near Rosario overlooking the Parana River.

There has been no official confirmation yet from Antonella and Leo, who started dating in 2008 and have two children Thiago, 4, and Mateo, one.

The 29-year-old footballer, one year older than his long-term partner, first met supermarket owner’s daughter Antonella when he was nine.

messi-and-girlfriend2

He used to write love letters to her as a teenager but they didn’t formalise their relationship until he was 21. They didn’t confirm they were dating until 2010 when Antonella travelled to Barcelona for the first time and moved in with her boyfriend.

They became inseparable after the death of a friend of Antonella’s in a road traffic accident shortly before she left Rosario for a new life in Spain.

Woman Gives Birth To Baby With Two Heads In Lagos. (Photos)

A woman gave birth to a baby with two heads, on Tuesday at Med-in specialist hospital, Osogbo street, Lagos, through an elective Caesarean section.

Various scans the woman underwent in the course of the pregnancy, indicated that she was having a twins.

The baby was resuscitated and transferred to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) for advance care. According to one of the nurses who was in the delivery room, they had prepared two cots for each of the twins but were shocked when they saw that they were conjoined.

“As I speak to you, the mother doesn’t know the condition of the babies. She still believes and expects to carry her twins. We haven’t told her yet. Only her husband was brought into the theatre to see his children and he was the one who went with the doctors to LUTH,” said the nurse.

The condition is known as Parapagus. It is a rare form of partial twinning where there are two heads and two necks side by side on one torso. Doctors say they cannot be separated since they have only one pair of arms and one pair of legs and one heart.

conjoined-twins-born-in-lgaos

This disorder is different from conjoined twins as the baby has only one set of internal organs. The extremely rare case is thought to be brought on during the early stages of pregnancy as a result of genetic mutation.

Med-In Hospital Manager, Dare Moses, said the baby was taken to LUTH so that tests can be conducted to ascertain if they share also vital organs like hearts and lungs. The Ministry of Health has been notified of the development.

“My Husband Took Me To The Hospital And Connived With The Doctor To Remove My Womb” – Wife Tells Court.

sad-wife

A 55-year-old trader, Mrs Saidat Abu, on Thursday told an Igando Customary Court in Lagos that her husband was a flirt who impregnated her younger sister on two occasions.

She disclosed this while responding to a suit filed by her husband, Momodu, alleging threat to his life by his wife.

Saidat, who alleged that her husband did not only commit adultery but incest, said,

“My husband was having an affair with my sister, he impregnated her and aborted the pregnancy on two occasions. I decided not to fight him in order to save my marriage.”

The mother of two also described her husband as a wicked and callous man.

She said:

“My husband took me to the hospital and connived with the doctor to remove my womb so that I will not be pregnant again.
After destroying my womb, he is now telling me that he wants to marry another woman so that he can have a son that will inherit his property.
He also told me he wants to sell our house so that he can settle our daughters and rent an apartment for me before he moves on with his life.”

She, however, begged the court not to grant her husband’s request, saying she was still in love with him. She said:

“Who will marry me now after my husband has destroyed my womb? Please do not grant his request.”

Her husband, a 60-year-old businessman, had approached the court to end his 33-year-old marriage over his wife’s alleged fetish act.

He said:

“My wife is fetish; I came back from work one day and discovered a portion in my compound was cemented. “I was curious to know what was buried in the ground, so I called my people and we dug the ground and saw a charm buried there. “My wife wanted to kill me so that she can inherit my property.”

Couple sentenced to death by hanging for murder, armed robbery in Osun state

An Osun State High Court sitting in Ile Ife has sentenced a couple – Fatai Jimoh and Lateefat Jimoh – to death by hanging for armed robbery and the murder of one Mrs. Bukola Taiwo of Ikeketu, Ile Ife.

Taiwo was said to have gone on a business trip to Ile Ife on August 12, 2009, and slept over at the Jimohs’ apartment.

It was learnt that the victim, who was a palm oil dealer, used to come from Ibadan, Oyo State, to buy palm oil at Ile Ife.

Taiwo was said to have bought 70 jerrycans of palm oil and kept them at the apartment of the couple. But the couple reportedly sold 48 jerrycans and promised to pay her back when she discovered the theft.

The couple, however, attacked the woman, who later died in a hospital.

The convicts were arraigned on June 2, 2014, on three counts of murder, conspiracy to murder and armed robbery respectively, which violated Section 316 (1), with punishment under Section 319, Cap 34, Law of Osun State and Section 1 (1) 2 (a) of the Robbery and Fire Arms (Special Provision) Act, Law of the Federation of Nigeria, 2000.

The couple had pleaded not guilty to the charges against them.

The prosecutor, during the trial, had called four witnesses and tendered 10 exhibits.

The prosecutor had told the court that Fatai strangulated the victim, while his wife smashed Taiwo’s head with a hammer after which the couple stole the victim’s purse and removed the sum of N48,780.

The Principal State Counsel, Mr. Faremi Moses, presented the hammer which the couple used on the deceased and other exhibits before the court.

The witnesses called by the prosecuting counsel were a police inspector, a pathologist from the University College Hospital, Ibadan, the Baale of Ikeketu and a neighour, who witnessed what happened.

Justice Onibokun, in his judgment, said the wife’s confessional statement to the police was taken as paramount and her confession was true.

The judge found the husband and wife guilty of two out of the three charges preferred against them.

Onibokun said, “The evidence of the prosecutor is cogent, reliable and credible, and the accused are therefore found guilty of murder and armed robbery after careful examination of the facts before the court.

“I hereby sentence them to death by hanging for murder and armed robbery, while they are discharged for conspiracy.”

“90 per cent of female prisoners pregnant, nursing mothers”

The National Council of Women’s Society (NCWS) has disclosed that 90 per cent of female prisoners in the country were either pregnant or nursing mothers.

The society’s president, Mrs. Gloria Shoda, made the disclosure yesterday in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital at the inauguration of new executives.

She appealed to the Federal Government to formulate policies to protect female prisoners. She also urged the National Human Rights Commission to intervene to stop all forms of discrimination against female prisoners who are awaiting trial.

According to her, assisting women with the relevant skills could help in building a better society.She said: “It is only when women are considered as the center of development that the economy could be better developed.

“We urge government to integrate gender into its developmental agenda by including them in public policy and governance. Women and girls are facing so many unpleasant challenges in the country. Everyday, the newspapers report incidents of violence against them even in the internally displaced persons camps.”

She urged them to embrace the nationwide slogan of “change begins with me,” to support one another.
