Why I took a break from Nollywood – Veteran Actress, Hilda Dokubo

dokubo

A few years ago, veteran actress, Hilda Dokubo stepped aside from Nollywood.

Her departure had created a vacuum, as many of her fans sorely missed her.

Now, she is back fully in the industry with a cameo in the wave making movie, The CEO produced by Kunle Afolayan.

In this exclusive chat with Entertainer, Dokubo reveals why she decided to take a break from acting. Enjoy it.

What are you up to lately?

I just finished The CEO, a film produced by Kunle Afolayan. Currently, I am working on a new movie. I am also running a training center, which has been on for some time now. I am doing it with women in the Niger Delta. And we are doing well. By the end of September, I will be starting small businesses for 35 women.

What inspired such project?

I just wanted to give back. I think that if we support a lot of people then we’ll have fewer people looking for jobs, fewer crimes, and fewer things to worry about. And together we can build a better society, the kind of society we want to see. And you will be proud of what you have done as a person if you ensure that what we have is actually what you want to see.

You quit Nollywood for some years, are you finally back into the industry?

I needed a break at the time that I took a break. I needed a break, I wanted to do something else, I wanted to give back to the society, and I wanted to go to school. I wanted to work with regular people, so I took some break to achieve these things. You know, there are times in your life that you feel like there is something that you need to do, and you need to do it quickly. I have done that, so the break time is over, and I’m back to my business.

Was it easy for you to get your feet back into the industry?

Let me blow my trumpet a bit. With all modesty, I don’t think that anyone would mention pioneer actors in this country and my name would be missing. It’s not going to be easy except somebody is trying to be dishonest.

Do you think mediocrity has been kicked out of Nollywood?

Let’s put it this way. I don’t know of any industry without professionals, amateurs, and wannabes. And it is not peculiar to Nollywood. This movement is a process; it’s not the end of the journey yet, and we are in that process so you are bound to have all kinds of people. You are bound to have the good, the bad, and the ugly. And you have the up and coming, they are not good but with time they will be very good, and you would be amazed how fast they have grown. So, we are work in progress.

What makes one a successful actor?

It’s the capacity to interpret a role. It’s when you strike your audience, making them forget that you are only a performer. You make them believe you so much that they travel with you and become part of the performance. You are not the only one performing because you are getting the emotions off them, and all the emotions you want them to give, they give it all out. That is how you know a damn good actor.

How do you distinguish your acting career from your public life and home front?

Let me tell you what I do. Everything has its rule; my home has its code of conduct, my business has its rules, and when I’m on location, it has its own code of conduct. I know Hilda the actress. I know Hilda the daughter of Binibor. I know Hilda the wife of Mrakpo, and I know Hilda the mother of her children. I know them all.

How do you balance it all?

I just balance it; it is great, really. But I have to mention here that you must have supportive people around you. You must have your children supporting you; you must have your parents, your family, and your friends supporting you. I want some people to know that the loneliest people are celebrities because people think we have everything we want. And sometimes people judge us without even knowing us, so we are lonely people but we are not alone. We’re just lonely, we don’t have people that we can depend on or run back to.

How would you advise young couples in Nollywood to safeguard their marriages?

Don’t safeguard it (Laughs). Just love it. Love your home, love the man, and love your kids. Do the best you can, respect everyone including yourself. Respect what you do, don’t force it. Somebody will love and respect you. And don’t try to shy away from making mistakes; just live your life one day at a time, loving who you are. And let the love inside you show on the outside. If you make any mistake, be quick to say ‘I am sorry’. And mean it. It’s one thing to say ‘I am sorry’ and it’s another thing not to mean it. When you are sorry, it means, you will not do that thing again. So, learn how to apologise, don’t feel too big. By the way, this is your husband, and you can’t be too big for him.

At what point, does a young actress say she cannot go on with her marriage?

When it becomes very abusive. Any man who is a real man will never abuse his wife.

What if she catches him cheating?

You know I’m a Christian, I’m born again, and I’m a minister so no ground is good enough. The Bible charges a man to love his wife as God loves the church. God has not abandoned us because of our sins, even when He caught us red-handed. He still loves us; He’s still giving us the best of help. However, your inner strength should tell you that you have to be morally upright. If you are morally upright, you are not doing it for anyone but for yourself. So, do the best that you can be proud of.

A lot of young actresses are desperate for roles; some pay or even give sex for role. What advice do you have for them?

Don’t give anything other than your talent. If anybody has to pay here then they should pay you. Come on, you have the talent, love it, do your work and that should pay you.

Man Abandoned Wife in Hospital Over Inability to Pay N520,000 Hospital Bill

fiberile-rash-in-hospitals

A woman has cried out for help from charitable Nigerians since her husband abandoned her in a hospital four months ago because he could not pay the medical bill of over N520,000.

The 39-year old mother of seven, Mrs. Uzoamaka Onu, who had a cancer operation is currently stuck in the New Mayor Hospital and Fertility Centre, Nkpor in Anambra due to none payment of the bill.

Report from the News Agency of Nigeria, NAN, said Mrs. Onu, a food vendor from Okpoto community in Ishielu Local Government Area of Ebonyi, could not get in touch with her husband after several attempt for four months, hence the conclusion that the man has abandoned her to fate.

Here’s her full story:

“My husband stopped visiting the hospital after I successfully underwent a surgery on my right breast.

“Though I do not blame him for absconding because he had suffered a lot since 2013 when signs of cancer started manifesting.

“He (my husband) sells rat poison and cannot afford the money to pay the balance and I think that is why he has run away.

“My problem started in 2013 when I started experiencing excruciating pain in my body, specifically in my lungs. I started visiting patent medicine stores for solution, but unfortunately that compounded my problems.

“However, it was on the advice of some friends and family members that I decided to visit General Hospital, Abakiliki where I was diagnosed with breast cancer.

“I am appealing to good spirited Nigerians to come to my aid and help me to get back home.”

In her quest to regain her health, Uzoamaka had visited the University of Nigeria Teaching Hospital (UNTH), Enugu and Lagos State University Teaching Hospital (LASUTH) for solution.

The rendezvous finally brought her to New Mayor Hospital and Fertility Centre where she had a successful surgery, leading to outright removal of her right breast.

“The total bill charged by the hospital management for the surgery was N750,000 but my family managed to pay N230,000, leaving the outstanding balance.”

Mrs. Onu’s predicament was confirmed by the hospitals medical director, Dr. Ben Ossai who described the her situation as extremely sympathetic.

According the doctor, her right breast was in a deteriorating state and was emitting offensive odour due to the devastation the ailment had caused, hence the necessity to surgically remove the affected breast.

Ossai continued:

“The patient underwent a successful surgery and had long been discharged pending when her family would pay the balance of her medical bill. But for four months now, her husband has not visited and we suspected he has absconded.”

Although Winnie Mandela’s birthday is on September 26, her birthday dinner was held almost two weeks clear of the date.

The South African icon had her celebration at the swanky Mount Nelson hotel in Cape Town and, even though she’s always beaten the odds, the world was surprised by one thing: mam’ Winnie’s ability to overthrow even the effects of aging.

Does being a fearless woman leader mean you can put a stop to the impact time and sip from the fountain of youth?

In several photos emerging from the party, Winnie looked at least 20 years younger than her age.

Winnie Mandela is known for her powerful speeches and her role in the revolution in South Africa against the apartheid that was in the country at that time.

According to men, these 8 things distinguish great sex from the common one!

There is a saying: “Sex is like a pizza. Even if it was bad, this is still good!” Indeed, sex by mutual agreement will always be good just because you are already making it!

But there are some things that make this pleasant occupation even better. Here what you need, according to men, to change common “a-a-a” into “AH!”:

black-couple-in-bed-ii

1. Chemistry. Probably, this is the most important aspect of the great sex. It simply must be – and that’s it! Sex without the chemistry is like eating the yesterday soup for dinner: you simply do this to fill your organism, but the process itself doesn’t bring you any pleasure.

2. Absence of discomfort.
In sex, only those things that you consider awkward will be awkward. What is natural is… not without an orgasm! The potential “mine areas” include:

A) weird body sounds;

B) weird body liquids.

Just keep in mind that this is also the part of the person with whom you want to make love!

3. The feeling that the partner cares for your pleasure. We always feel that the partner thinks only about himself. If he acts indifferently and with detachment, this can kill any desire. But if you both are full of enthusiasm and first of all want to bring pleasure to your sexual partner, this only can make your sex fantastical! Regardless your technique or experience…

“I’ve Not Even Penetrated My Wife Yet, But She is Already Four Months Pregnant” – Man Cries Out

A Kenyan man from Nakuru is currently at odds on what to do after he discovered his wife is four months pregnant.

The problem now is she is his new wife and he does not know to whom the pregnancy belongs.

“We exchanged vows in a colourful wedding in Nairobi just days ago back but I highly suspect that my wife is already pregnant with another man’s baby. I suspect so because we recently visited out family doctor for routine check up and said she was four months pregnant and our marriage is not even 4 months old. We’ve not even had sex yet” said Anthony as quoted in the Standard.

His Christian values ensured that he and his wife did not engage in s*xual activities before tying the knot, therefore cementing his belief that she cheated on him.

“I have since been heartbroken because I feel that I was cheated into marriage. I am seriously contemplating opting out even after sacrificing time during courtship and spending on a costly wedding,” added Anthony.

Despite caring for her, Anthony feels he cannot forgive her as there is no trust in their relationship.

“Can a marriage be nullified on the grounds that the brief was pregnant with another man’s baby without the knowledge of the groom at the time of the wedding?” lamented Anthony.

The Kenyan law allows for a couple to nullify their marriage if they have not consummated it.

cossy-chest

Cossy Ojiakor, a socialite based in Lagos may be towing the path of Joe Chinakwe who was charged to court and remanded in prison in Ogun State over an attempt to breach public peace by naming his dog after President Muhammadu Buhari.

Chinakwe was accused of taking the action to taunt his neighbour from the northern part of Nigeria.

Cossy Ojiakor has re-launched the trend by naming her two cats after President Muhammadu Buhari and former President, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. She satirized the two prominent Nigerian leaders with the picture of her pet animals playing around her compound which she calls the playgirl mansion in Lagos Island.

Cossy used the juncture to lament about the ailing Nigerian economy which has been hit by inflation as she jokingly expects her arrest by security operatives.

“A Popular Nollywood Producer Caused The Stroke I Had” – Actor Ernest Asuzu

ernest-0

Nollywood actor, Ernest Asuzu, suffered a stroke sometime last year. But luckily, he is back on his feet right now.

However, to start a new life, Prophet Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry, Warri, Delta State, gave the actor a brand new SUV and N1.5m cash.

In this interview with RITA OKOYE, Asuzu reminisces about his days of tribulations and also touches on plans for the future. Enjoy.

What really happened to you?

My sister, I had two disappear from Lagos because there were lots of people after my life. I followed the instructions of God and left Lagos for good. But now I am fully back.

When you left Lagos, where did you go?

Prophet Omoto Fufeyin of Christ Mercyland Deliverance Ministry invited me to Warri. They contacted me after reading my interview published in YES International magazine. The prophet heard about my stroke and all the evil things people have been saying about me, so he sent me money to fly down to Warri. All these things happened last year. The period my wife and I spent with the pastor was pleasant; they took good care of us, housed us, fed us, and healed me. Now, he has also blessed me with a brand new jeep and huge cash. My journey to Warri was a huge blessing in so many ways.

How was life like away from Lagos to a totally new place like Warri?

My life has been all round good. During my stay in Warri, I launched three of my albums. I mean, not one, or two, but three. It was a life transformation for me. People had thought I would die. But here I am, back and better after spending one year and three months in Warri.

ernest-01

Are you 100% healed now?

I’m perfectly healed, although I limp a bit. I can go to places now without aid. I talk properly now, unlike the way I was talking last year. The prophet prayed for me every day. He was very patient, loving and understanding. He wasn’t satisfied until I was healed completely.

Why did you jump into music, are you leaving Nollywood?

During my spare time in Warri, I faced my music and did three good albums. I have been in music for a long time. I have always been into music but it was more of rap. But now, I think I want to face it squarely.

How about Nollywood, are you bouncing back, the industry has missed you dearly?

Nollywood? No! I’m aiming at Hollywood. Nigerian music industry is full of evil. I can’t be part of it; I am a child of God. They almost took my life out of greed and jealousy. I’ll be going to America soon. Over there, I can join Hollywood. I think their lives are simpler and less complicated.
However, on a second thought, I think I can give Nollywood a trial. If I am approached my God-fearing producers, I might give it a trial.

What do you mean by ‘Nollywood is evil’? What kind of evil?

God in heaven knows that I didn’t do anybody wrong in Nollywood, yet they planned to kill me. A popular move producer, who I don’t want to mention, looked at me at a movie location in Asaba and told me that, that would be my last acting job ever, and he almost made it happen.

Are you saying he was the cause of your stroke?

Yes, I was still on set, but two days later, I fell ill. I had no money on me, so I called my wife to send me some money, which she did. A friend later came to my rescue. He managed to put me on a bus back to Lagos. As we got to Lagos, I tried to open the door and disembark but I fell off. The driver and passengers all came to my rescue. They carried me back into the bus and took me home to my wife and brother. When my brother saw me in that critical condition, he shook his head and asked, ‘Ernest, who did this to you?’ I could not respond, I was just staring at him. For three days, I was stooling and vomiting; I couldn’t eat. I was taken to the hospital; the doctors diagnosed me and said I was suffering from partial stroke. That was how it all started.

There were reports that you almost ran mad and even resorted to begging at Shoprite, what really happened?

It was really a malicious report against me. That is why I don’t like talking to the press, but you are a friend and very different. Some bad guys wrote that I was broke and begging at Shoprite. Fortunately, it was the first time Prophet Jeremiah heard about my predicament, before he read about me again in YES magazine. I didn’t know him from Adams, but it was through the bad reports that he traced and came to my rescue.

With all the gifts you received from the prophet, what next for you?

I am back to Lagos for good. I am also making plans to travel out with my wife. I really need a break from all these dramas. When we return, then we’ll know how to continue. I hope to start a new life soon.

“How I Lost My Childhood Friend To HIV/AID”

HIV Test: Know Your Status

Read Below This trending story from Nairaland.

I just want all of you to see this.

Today marks the 3rd anniversary I lost Ada, my childhood friend to Aids.

She didn’t get it through sexual intercourse, she didn’t contact it through blood transfusion, she didn’t contact it through contaminated needle but probably through the blade she might have shared with her sibling

Ada was the first child of her parents, she had 3 siblings. Her dad was a driver in Agip company, so they were well to do because he was paid well.
But he lived a promiscuous life, I remember the numerous women he brought to the house in the absence of his wife whenever Ada and her siblings travel for vacation.

I can still remember vividly the numerous fight he had with Ada’s mom over infidelity.

The whole problem started when Ada’s dad fell ill, he was taken to the hospital but his ailment would stop temporarily only to come back again. He had an unending cough, chicken pox and other sickness.

He was taken to the church later on because everyone thought it’s spiritual. They brought him back to the house when it didn’t improve either.
Different pastors and prayer warriors came to the house to pray for him too.

A huge handsome man that use to be the centre of attraction to women, became a shadow of himself. He became so bony and scary. His eyes popped out of his head and his cheeks sunk. He looked like a zombie and walked slowly.
I remember his wrapper falling off his waist whenever he walked for a short mile and he will b so weak to pick it up.

Rumours started going round that he was suffering from Aids. While some persons believed it was a spiritual problem.
He later died after some months and his wife became sick alongside her last child, Victor.

That was when it dawned on everyone that is Aids. She was placed on Anti retroviral drugs alongside her last child.

People in the neighbourhood avoided her, and her house help also ran away.

Before my mum would go to the market to sell her wares, she would call I and my siblings indoor and begged us not to play with Ada or go to their house to see movies like we use to.
She told us to run away whenever we see her.

I remember how she flogged me with firewood for allowing Ada come to the house to play.

Ada’s mom later died alongside her siblings and she went to live with her Uncle only to be returned after 7 months when she started having symptoms of Aids too.

Nobody took care of her and she died later on. She was just 13yrs old when she died.

HIV/AIDS is real, know your status.

For the teens out there, abstain from sex or use condom.

For the married men out there, remain faithful or use condom

Your life doesn’t worth the fun. If You See These 13 Symptoms, Do An HIV Test Immediately

How often you should be having sex, according to sex therapists

2488063038533_8387117046293

Most couples and individuals who come into sex therapist Tammy Nelson’s office want to know the same thing:

Is my sex life with my partner normal?

“They want to know if they are having enough sex, the right kind of sex, if their partner wants too much sex,” Nelson, a sexologist and the author of The New Monogamy, said. “Sometimes, they’re worried that they should be doing something totally different in bed.”

In response, Nelson usually tells people the same thing.
“Forget about ‘normal.’ ‘Normal’ is a setting on the washing machine, nothing more.

What’s most important is that you learn to have empathy for your partner and accept whatever their needs might be, even if they are different than your own,” she explained.

Below, Nelson and other sex therapists share the advice they give couples concerned about their sex lives (or lack thereof).

Stop worrying about how often other couples are doing it.
Forgot about keeping up with the Jones’ very active sex life:

Each couple has a “norm” when it comes to sex and that’s what you should be concerned about, said Dawn Michael, a sexologist and the author of My Husband Won’t Have Sex With Me.

“If a couple had sex three times a week for many years and it’s now down to once a week, the pattern has changed and the frequency has gone down,” she said. “We focus on that in our conversation.”

But Michael also stresses that when it comes to sex, there is no magic number ― and most couples who say they’re getting it on all the time are fibbing.

“A lot of couples will say they have sex three times a week, but from what I see in my private practice, that number does not correlate with the truth.”

What’s normal for you now won’t be what’s normal for you in a few years.

What matters more than finding a nationwide average is determining how sexually satisfied you are at this point in your life, said Chris Rose, sex educator at the website Pleasure Mechanics.

“Your shared sex life is a constant navigation between the tides of your libido, your time and energy, and mutual desire to prioritize sex,” she said. “Frequent conversations about your sex life ― and increasing the amount of affectionate touch you share outside of the bedroom ― may actually be the most important factors in a long-term sexually satisfying relationship.”

Don’t lose hope if you’re the partner with the higher sex drive.
Someone needs to maintain an interest in your sex life.

Otherwise, you might end up in a dead bedroom situation, said Ian Kerner, a sex therapist and New York Times-bestselling author of She Comes First: The Thinking Man’s Guide to Pleasuring a Woman.

As he points out, sex isn’t always spontaneous; sometimes, kick starting your sex life requires focusing on arousal over orgasms and just enjoying the moment and the buildup.

“I tell couples that for many people, sexual desire doesn’t emerge at the start of sex, but more toward the middle,” he said. “You need to commit to generating some kind of arousal (through kissing, making out, dancing, reading erotica or watching porn) that may lead to desire. Be willing to generate arousal and see where it goes.”

If you’re the partner with the lower sex drive, determine if there’s a reason.

If you’re the partner who is less interested in sex, there’s no need to feel shame, said Celeste Hirschman, a sex therapist and the co-author of Making Love Real: The Intelligent Couple’s Guide to Lasting Intimacy and Passion. Desire discrepancy in relationships is more common than most people realize.

As Hirschman’s co-author Danielle Harel explains, if you want things to change, you have to be willing to deep dive into why you’re disinterested in sex.

It could be that you’re experiencing physical and hormonal fluctuations and intercourse is painful ― or maybe you’re just tired of doing the same ol’ thing in the bedroom.

“Sometimes, the lower sex drive partner might not be getting the kind of sex they want or they might be feeling too much pressure from their partner which makes them feel obligated,” Harel said. “Feeling obligated to have sex is definitely not sexy.”

Remember: Good sex can’t be quantified.

At the end of the night, when you’re laying in bed with your partner, don’t stare at the ceiling and wonder if your sex life is “normal” compared to others. Be proactive: Reach out to your S.O. and talk about what both of you want in the bedroom, Nelson said.

“Try new things,” she said. “Snuggle more, masturbate, negotiate an open relationship if you’re into that, but make sure you always talk about what is important to you,” she said. “Never silently seethe or hold resentment.”

She added: “The secret to a satisfying sex life is not just getting the sex that you want, it’s learning how to give your partner what they want, too.”

Seriously? South African Universities To Introduce B.Sc In Witchcraft?!

witchcraft

Well, reports serving rounds, reveals that South African Minister of Higher Education and Training, Blade Nzimande has announced plans to have witchcraft included in the curriculum from 2018, giving students who wish to get an education on witchcraft the chance to do so in the country’s universities.

The minister made this known while addressing representatives from student unions around the country, adding that the introduction of the course is aimed at learning skills which are peculiar to people who practice witchcraft.

Announcing the bizarre move, he urged future university entrees to consider taking Witchcraft as a course.

He is quoted as saying:

“There is a lot we can learn from witchcraft, like how they fly in that winnowing basket. Imagine if we learn that skill. It will eradicate traffic jams and everyone will just get in their basket and fly. It also means we will not be importing fuel anymore.” He said

Ogbanje and emeres! Looks like y’all are finally gonna go to school! Hehe…

Pupil Who Drank Acid Left Carelessly By Teachers Around His Classroom In Ogun State, Dies. (Photo)

darasimi

Three-year-old Darasimi Ogunwunmi, a Kindergarten One pupil, who drank caustic soda left carelessly around his classroom by teachers of his private school, Fahsal Children’s School, Ilupeju Estate, Idiroko, Ogun State in November 2015, has died, PUNCH reports.

After nine months of agony, being unable to swallow either liquid or solid food and six different surgeries at the Lagos University Teaching Hospital, Darasimi succumbed to his injuries few days after his last surgical operation on Monday, September 12…

The last surgery was another attempt to open up the boy’s stomach and throat which had become damaged by the chemical, which he drank when he was thirsty in school.

It happened on November 19, 2015 when Darasimi became thirsty and his teachers turned a deaf ear to his incessant cry for water. Part of the caustic soda already mixed and allegedly left around was what Darasimi drank from.

His teachers only realised what had happened when the boy was found outside his classroom crying and bleeding from the mouth, it was learnt. The teachers applied palm oil to the boy’s mouth but rushed him to the hospital when they realised his case was critical.

Ogun government promised us justice, did nothing – Boy’s parents

Ogun State Commissioner for Education, Mrs. Modupe Mujota, said that she had constituted a team to investigate the case. But the family explained that nothing had been done about bringing the proprietor of their son’s school to justice.

The publication contacted the commissioner on Thursday to ask if anything was ever done about the boy’s case and what the outcome of the state’s investigation was.

“There was a full investigation. But because there was no hard evidence, it became difficult to take the issue up legally. We combed the premises of the school and nothing was found, probably because time had elapsed and the school might have cleaned up,” Mujota said.

basketmouth-throwback

The ace comedian has evolved to be the highest paid comedian in Africa (arguably) – if one had told him 13 years ago, that he’d be what he is now, I’m sure he’d take a hard look at himself in doubt.

He captioned the photo:

It was in Apapa, about 13yrs ago. Can’t remember the name of the joint but I remember we were drinking beer with suya on the side, the days you can entertain a group of 10 peeps with less than N3,000. Met @kayodeariwayo in secondary school 26yrs ago, since then we’ve been 100%, been working won’t him now for 10yrs….please give him a hug on my behalf when you bump into him. Finally…..WHAT WERE THEY LOOKING AT??!!!!

“Fine Girl No Action” – Charly Boy Writes.

charly-boy-fine-girl

I was lounging in my sitting room on this lazy Saturday morning when my cousin breezed in with this beautiful damsel, his new girlfriend. After formally introducing her, I couldn’t help but notice her statistics, very impressive I must say.

My cousin is a certified player; only 33yrs old but I swear, e don do pass me. When I was in the world, Kai, did I have my fill of very beautiful women: when men were men, no be now wey we dey go night vigil before we can get a hard-on. Who say old age na good thing.

Yea, I know what you’re thinking….

Men are often thought of as visual creatures. You can’t blame us for being superficial when it’s hardwired into our brains, can you? That’s what we say, at least, as a defense, because most of us are defenseless when faced with an incredibly beautiful woman; but as old solider concerned, I have A1 in holding body, wetin Oyinbo people call discipline.

Back to my cousin, his babe excused herself at some point to use the washroom, as I fired the first shot by congratulating him on a very beautiful catch, come and see heavy complaints, he started telling me all that was wrong with his girl. Haba, they have only dated for just three months! “Uncle Charly, she is only a fine face o, she can’t cook, she can’t f..k, all she’s good for is this kinda comment I get every time and everywhere I go with her but na dat one I go chop? Infact, I’m not sure I will be with her for long”, he murmured bitterly.
What do I say to all of that?

I have learnt from experience that out of the hundreds of very beautiful and pretty women I dated when I was in the world, most of them really were nothing to write home about when it came to bedmatics. My cousin’s statement therefore was only reaffirming what I have known all along. I know this is a theory many guys would love to argue out with me, but, hey, it’s just my personal opinion. Most pretty faces out there are not great lovers at all.

You see, the world does a great job of constantly reminding pretty, beautiful, fine women how hot they are. Yes, she’s heard it before. She’s probably been hearing it continuously since she was 12yrs old and this can have a number of effects on a woman. A particular effect is that she might have an inflated ego, thinking she’s all of that, hence no need for her to make extra effort at being proficient in the bedroom department. So so wrong. She may not realize it until she’s way into a relationship, but there’s no mistaking someone who is totally certain she’s got everyone around her sucking up to her including you.

As a result, some of them become lazy, uninteresting f…k. Yes o.
I also understand that some of them hold back a lot by being inexpressive so that some of us don’t think that they are ashawo’s. For some others, they were raised to feel its loose behaviour and taboo for them to even WANT sex, let alone ENJOY it. It’s no wonder they just lay there.
So ladies, it’s time to find out from your man if you meet all the bedroom requirement, especially if he knows what he is doing too. Even if you’re not a rock star in bed, work it out with your man so you both can find each other’s G-Spot.

Hopefully guys, when you finally get a chick who is a killer in bed, please don’t get stuck like so many other guys do, being haunted by how many people have watered her garden; just kick back and enjoy it and don’t get caught up on wondering how or where she learned the skills from.
And for women, find men who can enjoy sex with you without being intimidated or overwhelmed by a woman who knows what she’s doing.

Sex and sexuality is a serious matter.
It doesn’t matter who chooses to be on top or under, whatever you do, just be on top of your game, make memorable screws, ones that leave your man thoroughly pleasured all the time; no just be fine girl with no action.
