Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta professionally known as Lady Gaga, an American singer, has now given a sensational description of Edward Christopher Sheeran (Ed Sheeran) as the latter announces exit from Twitter, the social media platform.
Ed Sheeran left Twitter over ‘internet abuses’ which he can no longer tolerate.
According to Lady Gaga on Twitter and Instagram, yesterday, she said this:
“What an incredible talented artist I LOVE ED @teddysphotos deserves all our love and respect like all humans do. I wish all people on the internet would be positive and loving and apart of creating an internet community that is empowering, not hateful and mean. No reason to tear down some artiste simply because they are on the top. Work harder to be kinder everybody. That should be your first duty to humanity.
The Senate President, Bukola Saraki is currently the number one Trending Topic on Twitter Nigeria at the moment.. and this is for two reasons.
1. The Senators on Tuesday had tried to declare him as president of the nation.
Senator Eyinanya Abaribe (Abia South), raised a motion that since President Muhammadu Buhari is on medical leave, and the vice (acting) president Yemi Osinbajo is in Addis Ababa for the African Union (AU) summit, the country has no leader and as such Saraki should be declared president.
Senator Kabiru Marafa, citing the constitution also said, “if the President is not around, the Vice President should act, and if the Vice President is not around, the Senate President, who is the number 3 citizen should become acting President.”
Saraki however interfered and ruled Marafa “out of order”.
The senators had earlier turned down Osinbajo’s letter seeking the confirmation of Lanre Gbajabiamila, as the Director General of National Lottery Regulatory Commission.
It said that since Osinbajo had earlier reportedly said the Senate had no power to confirm nominees, it is subjecting the letter to deliberations.
The second reason is as a result of a series of tweets from @SaharaReporters’ account over a plot to stop Osinbajo from becoming president.
According to multiple reports, a man selling meat at Allinson Junction, and also an Aboki selling fruits at the same Junction, close to United High School, Ikorodu raised an alarm after the said woman who was acting like a “mad person” suddenly went to a corner to receive a phone call.
She was immediately approached for questioning, and when she couldn’t give a concrete reason as to what she was doing there, she was handed over to the Local Vigilante Office.. On getting there, she was interrogated by the Deputy Chairman of the Vigilante group.
They searched her, and found an iPhone 7, a juju ring, and then a list that contains descriptions of children (age range, prices and height) in her bag.
The deceased then confessed that she came all the way from Isolo, and that she didn’t come along, but then her other accomplice fled, immediately she was caught.
The Vigilantes called the police to take the suspect away, but before the police arrived, a mob that had already gathered were calling for her head. They were demanding for Jungle Justice to be carried out on her.
As the Vigilantes couldn’t handle the crowd, they took it upon themselves to take her to the police station. Unfortunately, the crowd were too many for them to control.
She was later beaten and burnt to death with her bag containing the list and juju ring.
A popular South African radio presented has been fired by the Broadcasting Corporation (SABC), for calling President Jacob Zuma a “zombie” in a Facebook post, the privately owned News 24 site has reported.
According to SABC spokesman, Kaizer Kganyago, he said OAP Ravi Govender’s contract was terminated because of concerns that he had brought the public broadcaster into disrepute.
It was reported that the Radio Lotus presenter had earlier apologized for the post that he said he had put up in anger after listening to a speech by the President at the governing African National Congress’ (ANC) policy conference in the main city, Johannesburg, on Friday
He said;
“Just heard a Zombie Zuma giving a speech on the news. Massacring the beautiful English language. Uneducated creature. Even the other moron [Zimbabwe’s President Robert] Mugabe speaks much better,”
Mr. Zuma’s son, Edward, accused Mr. Govender of hate speech and threatened legal action against him.
Edward was quoted saying
“We fail as a family to understand what prompted Ravi Govender to make such a statement referring to our father as a zombie. Is this still part of freedom of speech? We believe that this is the worst form of abuse of democracy that many of our leaders fought so hard to achieve,” .

Here’s a funny application letter received by an office in Abuja today, from a female graduate.
According to the twitter user (@BryteDude) who shared it on Twitter, they are still recovering from the shock
He Tweeted ;
See an application letter received by an office in Abuja today, from a graduate… Scratch that. A compatriot. God help us
Walahi, you can’t imagine the shock those of us who received the letter, are going through.
Letter that came with CV and copies of credentials? This is real life. Had to crop out the address at the top, and her name below.
I want to first of all appreciate God for not allowing the devil take the glory as regards the incident of the Young boy who tried to harm his classmate with acid because of class position, I am glad the prestigious institution took some certain measures to make sure issues like this doesn’t occur again but I still believe these steps are very good but not really appropriate for this situation. I will make my points succinct for better and clear understanding from my own angle.
First of all, According to Punch, the young boy got the acid substance from the school’s laboratory, we all know that the laboratory in a secondary school setting is known as a special room because of it functions and what it contains.
Even when practical are carried out, the individuals involved are fully kitted to prevent any harmful experience because of the substances involved.
I believe you need to look at the safety measures of your school generally especially the special rooms,even if it needs you to call in the services of a safety expert to work this out.
What if the plan of the young boy was to drink the substance immediately,don’t you think it would have been a different story entirely? Godforbid!!! This is the first step that broke the hedge which gave the serpent the opportunity to bite,but thank God the devil lost the battle,but this should be a lesson.
So it will be very expedient the school upgrades their safety measures to guarantee student safety like having a constant and effective laboratory attendant who stays inside the lab and monitors activities within the laboratory and if there was a lab attendant during this incident,he should be seriously questioned.
Secondly, to a reasonable extent, I still insist that the young boy shouldn’t have been expelled and all the blames shouldn’t be on him. He should be disciplined and counseled. Let us get things straight, am not trying to defend his action, but am just trying to be non-sentimental in my views to be able to capture the best solution to the issue at hand.
According to the news, the girl had defeated the boy twice, is it not obvious that the young boy could have been under pressure maybe from his parent? we all went through this stage and we know how Parents behave especially African parents,the young boy could have been seriously pressurized by his parent for allowing a girl defeat him.
The boy may have obviously thought carrying out this devilish act was the best way, these are factors we should consider. i believe the Parent of the boy and all other parents and the students should be properly enlightened that education is not the true test of knowledge, not as if the students should not be studious, but they should have the mindset that coming out first, second or last in the class doesn’t mean that they are not intelligent and that they will not make it in life, it just means that they just need to put in more effort. Even adults in the University too need this orientation.
Finally, This is an eye opener for everybody and we thank God that nothing harmful happened. The Disciplinary Unit should discipline the boy based on their own disciplinary policy and the counseling Unit of the school should seriously counsel the young boy and every other students in the school, he should be closely monitored, they should take note of his associations what he exposes himself to.
They should continue to re-orientate him and all the students, Infact the re-orientation should be constant especially at the beginning of the term, before examination and when they are about to receive their results and also Parents should also be properly educated not to put pressures on their Children so that they will not be desperate. Expelling the Boy is not the Solution.

Because of the love I had for her, I still went ahead to marry her against the advice l got from some of her family members,
My wife brings her lovers into our matrimonial home and makes love with them.
My children and my workers confirmed it, that it happens mostly at weekends when I have gone to school,
The series of problems that l am having with my wife always bother on infidelity, betrayal and lies.
One day I saw a receipt of a landed property bought by my wife, yet she did not have any other source of income except my shop
since she left the house, my children have been winning awards in church.’’

anyone there.

terrains.”
