This chat message was posted online by a man who was turned down by a lady he admired. At first, he didn’t reveal who he was – and the girl was forming – claiming she has a boyfriend.

Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Muhammad Sa’ad Abubakar III has yesterday, said the recession being experienced currently in the country and other parts of the world is ordained by God.
“The only solution to this is for us to show piety and repent. It is ordained by God”, the President General of the Nigerian Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs (NSCIA) said.
Sultan Abubakar spoke in Sokoto yesterday as activities for his 10th coronation anniversary commenced with the distribution of items.
Items worth N9 million were shared out to 270 widows, orphans and other indigent persons at a ceremony organised by the state Zakkat and Endowment Committee.
The monarch also admonished the adherents of Islam and Christianity to live their lives according to the dictates of their Holy Scriptures.
Nigerian noble laureate Wole Soyinka says he will destroy his green card and leave the United States if it so happens that Donald Trump wins the presidential election.
According to a report by The Guardian, Soyinka, a scholar-in-residence at New York University’s Institute of American Affairs, disclosed the plan in a speech to Oxford students.
He was quoted as saying:
“If in the unlikely event he does win, the first thing he’ll do is to say (that) all green-card holders must reapply to come back into the US. Well, I’m not waiting for that.
“The moment they announce his victory, I will cut my green card myself and start packing up.”
The Nobel laureate also criticised Brexit, warning that there is a rise of “ultranationalism” and calling on young people to resist oppression.
His comments come less than three weeks after 70 Nobel laureates backed Democratic Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Nigerian Instagram is definitely an experience.
As with everything, Nigerians have found a way to personalise Instagram and infuse it with Naija flavour. There are a lot of characters you’d find on Nigerian Instagram, and we decided to categorise them.

A chef who worked for a Managing Director at the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mrs Esther Nnadi-Ogbue, has absconded with cash and pieces of jewelry worth $6million, according to Sahara Reporters.
The man, identified as Gabel Segbedji, a Benin Republic national took off with the loot in a Toyota Camry car which also belonged to her boss, last Wednesday.
Segbedji was reportedly recommended for employment by her close friend, Toke Benson. Mrs Nnamdi-Ogbue, whose daughter is set to wed later this month in London, is said to be totally devastated by the theft but didn’t report it to the police.
Mrs. Nnamdi Ogbue was the Managing Director of the Petroleum Products and Marketing Company (PPMC) before she was moved to Products Retail by then GMD of NNPC, Ibe Kachikwu, last year
An unidentified 12 year old, appeared in court Tuesday for stabbing another boy, 11 year old Granville Bosel to death.
The 12 year old was later released into his mother’s care while investigation into the stabbing continued. The circumstances surrounding Bosel’s death is yet unknown.
The 11 year old who was a grade 5 pupil of Danie Ackerman Primary School and a talented cricket player from Nomzamo, was visiting his grandmother on Saturday, while his parents were in the Overberg for the weekend when the said incident happened.
A spokesperson from Western Cape Police confirmed that Granville Bosel died on the scene at a street in Sercor Park after the sad incident.
‘The victim, who sustained a stab wound to the chest, died on the scene due to the extent of his injuries.’
According to Times Live, a murder case which was opened was postponed to December 13 for further police investigation to be carried.
A Zimbabwean woman, Junior Phiri, has accused her husband, Douglas Hazvinei Gondo, of forcing her into prostitution to enable him raise funds for his business.
Phiri said her husband asked her to have sex with a stranger so that he would claim compensation in the sum of $3000.
“This man is saying that I am a prostitute yet he is the one who pleaded with me to have s*x with a certain man so that he would go and claim money from him to start a business.
I am shocked that now he is saying I am a prostitute. He has not been taking care of the family. I am the one who has been doing everything for the children. I used to be a cross border trader but not anymore. In fact I have told him a number of times that I am no longer interested in the marriage but he keeps forcing me to love him…”
Phiri went on to say that Douglas had dragged her to the maintenance court as a way of disgracing her after she had reported him to the police for assault
“He brought me to court as a way of trying to shame me but the truth of the matter is that I am the one who takes care of the children. He does not buy anything for anyone. Our eldest child is now selling buckets in Mbare because their father is failing to take care of his family. My children have asked me to move out with them because they see how worthless their father is,” said Junior.
Meanwhile, Douglas has maintained that his wife is a prostitute who was shameless enough to justify her actions, saying she needed the money for their children’s welfare:
“This woman who is my wife is a prostitute. She has so many lovers and the evidence is in her phone which I confiscated. “She uses her job as a cover for her promiscuous behaviour. She once lied that she was going out of the country for work and she went to sleep with one of her lovers. She says she has to fend for the children and her parents so she has no other choice but to be a prostitute. One of her lovers is a doctor. I asked her to stop paying for the children’s school fees or to do anything for them because I wanted her to stop prostituting but now because she has failed to listen to me I want her to maintain the children and I.”
Douglas who hauled his wife to the maintenance court in Zimbabwe, is claiming $150 for their three children’s upkeep and $50 for his own upkeep:
“I want her to take care of the children and I, and I know that she can afford to do so because she is a cross border trader who is also a hairdresser. She earns $800 per month. She has no other children and no other husband except for her boyfriends only. I am a vendor and I get about $100 a month. My wife is capable of paying the said amount because she has the money,” Douglas said.
Presiding magistrate Sharon Rakafa postponed the matter to today for ruling.

They say women are more scared of getting pregnant than contracting HIV/Aids.
I am not sure about the authenticity of the statement,but you get the point.
Women will go at extra lengths to ensure they DO NOT get pregnant.
This is a fact, since time immemorial, women have been using bizarre ways to avoid getting pregnant, S-xually Transmitted Infection’s aside.
Here are some of the bizarre things they do to enjoy s-x without getting pregnant.
Immediately after s-x, a woman is required to squat the sneeze. This movement is said to force out every single sperm from the woman’s veejay.
In ancient Greek, physicians recommended women to do this to shake the sperm out before fertilizing the egg.
Women were also advised to jump up an down, and kick their feet against their bums, to avoid getting pregnant.
How practical?

A man who has been parading himself as a female sex worker and robbing men at night clubs has been arrested in Kenya.
According to reports, the man, who has been referring to himself as ‘Grace’, has been stealing from men in clubs after seducing them.
However, his luck ran out after a man who paid for his services at a local bar had taken the alleged prostitute to a hotel room for fun only to discover the prostitute was not a woman.
‘Grace’ had won a wig and make up and walked with a woman’s gait before his cover was blown open. A mob had attempted to lynch him before he was rescued by the police and has been staying there for his own safety.
Nollywood veteran actor and ‘Naija’s most charming grandpa, Richard Mofe Damijo, shared this powerful and motivational message on his social media page.
He shared the stylish photo above and wrote:
“Let’s take some time to revisit the “you’re too old to go for your dreams” myth. Yea, it’s a myth and if anyone tries to convince you otherwise, tell them to take a good look at me.
I left the scene (my dreams) for EIGHT YEARS…8 years in the entertainment industry is a life time, trust me, so I call it EIGHT LONG YEARS of being away from my dreams.
Contrary to what a lot of you think and/or believe, when it was time for me to return to my dreams, I was scared, worried, uncertain, had doubts, questions and fears but hey, I went to the rock that is higher than I (God).
I went to Him in humility and sincerity… The thing you call swag, sex appeal, charisma…you name it, is the GLORY OF GOD…It is by His special grace that at 55 rapidly going on 56, I am blessed to live my dreams in health and sound mind.
Today, I encourage you to conquer your fears, worries, doubts, uncertainties and go with God. Go for your dreams… it’s never too late to start, never to late to try again… #RMDSaysSo #JustDoIt #TrustGod #GoWithGod #StayPositive #Believe #WednesdayWisdom”

“This week has been a real struggle. Been in and out of hospital and it’s my birthday week. So emotional but I bless God in everything. I have learnt not to take my body for granted. As @kemiadetiba told me yesterday “of what use is the hustle if we are not here to enjoy it”. As I reflect on that statement I hope someone out there takes a moment to breathe, we all want to be successful, we want to do more and more and more but life is fragile and the real wealth is health. ???”

Presenter and On Air Personality, Ik Osakioduwa’s wife, Olohije is a year older today and he wrote her a lovely birthday message… a quite romantic one actually, as he calls her his “greatest miracle”.
The couple have been married since 2008. He wrote:
Several years ago today, God dusted his hands, looked back at this Ora princess he had created and said to Himself “Kia! I’m too much”. The angels looked at Him and said “Lord you gave her A lovely heart, an amazing mind, a great personality and dangerously good looks. You are not only ‘too much’, you are actually partial”. God and the angels agreed that the mold from which she was made must be broken. There couldn’t be 2 of the spec. Then in a phenomenal act of grace and kindness God decided then that she would marry someone undeserving. And average joe. Why? Just because he could. And for that day I will FOREVER be grateful. Happy Birthday baby. You are my greatest miracle ever. I love you

A woman from Ilorin told a court to dissolve her two year marriage because she refused to stay in purdah, News Agency of Nigeria reports.
The purdah practice requires married Muslim women to stay in separate rooms, behind a curtain or dress in all-enveloping clothes, usually black in colour, in other to say out of the sight of men or strangers. Come rain or burning sun, they cannot step out in public without the purdah.
But Azanat Bashiru told the court that Mumin Bashiru, her husband of two years and father of their two children, did not tell her before they got married in 2014 that she would be put in purdah.
“This is not in our agreement. I cannot be covering my body with black cloth, including my eyes, all of the time,’’ she said.
Mumin did not raise any objection. “If she doesn’t agree to be in purdah, she is free to go,’’ he said. But he demanded custody of their two children.

A young man who was brought into this world with four legs has used social media to appeal for doctors to amputate his two extra limbs.
22 year old Arun Kumar, was born with two extra legs growing from his lower back, one underdeveloped and the other permanently bent at the knee.
Arun, who lives in Uttar Pradesh, India, appealed through social media for medical help to remove his extra legs.
A team of specialists at Fortis Hospital in Delhi responded to Arun’s plea for help and organised a series of tests to find out how the legs are attached and if he can be treated.
Arun said:
“If I get an operation and doctors take off my two extra legs, then I can also live a normal life. I may be able to move and walk properly like others. If they are willing to do an operation, then I’m ready.”
Although he cannot move his extra legs, he does have feeling in them and carrying the weight on his back is damaging his posture and ability to walk.
Arun’s mother Kokila Devi said:
‘During childbirth he got stuck and didn’t come out without pain. And when he came out, all his limbs were the same size.’
Doctors at various hospitals deemed Arun’s extra legs too risky to operate on when he was a baby.
Ghanaian actor turned preacher, Majid Michel shared this very powerful gospel message alongside the picture above. He wrote:
“Intellectuals Don’t Accept Theories Without Testing Them. i suddenly realized that i had done what no true intellectual ever does. i had made conclusions about things that i had never really tested.
No scientist ever draws conclusions about things he has never put to the test. i had never really put Jesus Christ to the test, never really given Him an opportunity to work in my life. i had never given him a chance to come inside and live in me and prove whether the things the Bible said about Him were true.
As a student, i didn’t major in science, but i was a strong believer in the scientific method. in science class, our teacher taught us that every true scientist proves over and over that something is true. it occurred to me that i had never really proved that God is true. i had just drawn intellectual and philosophical conclusions about God, but had never given Him a chance to work in my life.
Now i had to conclude that Majid Michel was a phony, but i also concluded that Jesus Christ died for phonies! Now i’m talking to everyone in the world who lives with bigotry, hate, and violence, that you could never through your own strength and ability be able to produce anything in this life that would be worthwhile. Jesus Christ died in your place to forgive you of every sin that you have ever committed, and arose again to live in you. And God is asking YOU to believe JUST THAT ! #LEADERSHiP.”
For me, it’s Vic O, the rappers bars are life saving… hysterically!
Hehe… be honest though, these three are drowning and you can only save one! Who would it be?!

She was last year celebrated as one of the oldest persons living with sickle cell in the world – Alhaja Asiata Adupe Onikoyi Laguda turned 91 yesterday, November 1st 2016.
And judging by the photo shared by her granddaughter, Moyo Asekun – CEO Pérola Moda, she is still bubbling with health and proof that sickle cell disease can be conquered!
At the time Alhaja Asiata Adupe Onikoyi Laguda was born in 1925 into the Onikoyi Chieftaincy family of Lagos, there was no immunization, no new-born screening, no hydroxyurea, no inkling that hydration with just water could go a long way in dealing with sickle cell disease.
At that time, the average life expectancy of children born with sickle cell disorder was just five years.
Due to the high level of illiteracy at the time of her birth, she was never diagnosed with sickle cell. She endured years of pain, which kept her away from school till she was 12 years old. Her pain was so severe and frequent that she would beg God to let her die.
But she defied the odds… She survived sickle cell. A hearty birthday to the fighter!!
Lil Wayne has drawn the fury of black people in America towards him after he dismissed the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement.
In an interview with Nightlife, when the rapper was asked if he felt drawn to the movement, he answers:
“I don’t feel connected to a damn thing that ain’t got nothin’ to do with me.”
The rapper goes on to explain, “I’m a young black rich mother****er. If that don’t let you know that America understand that black lives matter this days, then I don’t know what it is.”
Wayne has faced some backlash in recent months for his controversial opinions. In a preview of the interview, Davis addressed the Black Lives Matter movement, to which Wayne responds:
“What is it? What does it mean?”. In the full clip, Wayne got frustrated, snatched off his mic, and claimed “I ain’t no politician.”
Lil Wayne says he doesn't feel connected to Black Lives Matter movement. Watch tonight on Nightline at 12:35am ET. pic.twitter.com/28eBGfpSja

A Ghanaian man identified as John Kojo, 22 has reportedly been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly supplying a locally-made pistol to a suspected robber in the Morogbo, Badagry area of the state.
Kojo was arrested on Saturday when a robbery suspect, Banhusa Abujuny, identified the Ghanaian as the owner of the gun he (Abujuny) allegedly used for robbery.
The duo was being detained by operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Ikeja. The police said the gun was “stolen from another robbery gang.”
According to Punch Metro, on Friday, October 7, some armed robbers came to Kojo’s area in Morogbo and unleashed terror on the residents.
Some residents put distress calls across to the police, while some vigilance group members mobilised against the robbers. As the robbers fled, they abandoned the pistol, while Kojo, who was reportedly around the scene, picked and hid the weapon.
According to the police, Kojo later gave the gun to Abujuny to rob. Kojo, however, said that he hid the gun abandoned by the robbers, adding that he was afraid to turn it in to the police. The Ghanaian said he was not aware that his friend, Abujuny, took the gun from his house.
He said:
“I got the gun after the robbers, who attacked Oko Afo, fled. The robbers came to our area and were moving from house to house. Some residents confronted them and they fled. I was one of those who chased the robbers.
“As they fled, they left one of the guns by the roadside and I picked it. I brought the gun home and hid it. I did not give the weapon to the police because I was afraid. I did not show the gun to anyone. Abujuny is my friend. He did not tell me that he had taken the gun. I was at home last week Saturday when SARS officers came and arrested me.”
Abujuny, who said he had not robbed with the gun, stated that he was arrested during a street fight in the Alaba Market, Ojo.
He said:
“I had yet to rob with the gun. There was a fight in the Alaba Market on Friday and I threatened someone with the gun.”
The state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, said the suspects would be charged to court at the end of investigation.
A new report has surfaced online detailing how Lilian Esoro and Ubi Franklin’s marital crisis started.
Kindly read the full report below:
– Via @misspetitenigeria
. ???? My latest dirt is on music exec, #UbiFranklin and actress, #LilianEsoro ‘s one year old marriage .In 2015 I posted dirt on their engagement at the time (here)… Well,two months ago, I heard from authoritative sources that their #marriage has crashed and Lilian had ended the marriage. I felt it was just an issue of adjusting to a new life, which sometimes comes with motherhood.
Besides,some new mums suffer from #Postpartumdepression which can make them take out their frustration on their spouses. It’s been almost four months and the couple is doing little to quell the speculations..Well, let’s just say Lilian is making it quite obvious.
#Misspetitenaija can authoritatively report that Lilian walked out on her marriage immediately their son,Jaden was born and is adamant not to return. Their issues reportedly stem from #infidelity to domestic abuse .
If you recall, their relationship has always been rocky from the moment he proposed to her .Lilian rejected the #proposal and was literally begged to accept him. He even flew all the way to the USA to win her back .
This was because she was not expecting a proposal in such a short time and besides, she was inlove with an #actor who is now married so won’t mention his name .
When she realized the actor had moved on to the new lady he is now married to, she heeded to friends advice and accepted Ubi.Her family also cajoled her to marry him as he was quite generous to them .
Even after accepting his proposal, they split once again and he begged her yet again before she finally agreed and got married .
In a year of marriage, they have welcomed a son and this has sparked reports she must have gotten pregnant before their marriage was official .
At the moment, Lilian has moved out of their house and is finding comfort in her family who are in support of her decision .Meanwhile, Ubi is doing all he can to win her back.He has also tried to keep their situation under wraps.
As if to add fuel to the fire, Lilian totally ignored the launch of Ubi’s new lounge last week .She did not make reference to chinnysblog She did not make reference to it,promote it neither did she attend it.Rumour has it, he opened it to win her back.
To crown it all, today being their anniversary, she totally ignored it on social media and to pass a message across , instead uploaded a photo with her sisters.
After Ubi waited for hours , he decided to celebrate their one year anniversary with this photo collage and loving words to her.
1 year ago I married my lovely wife Lilian who is God Fearing lady and Super mom to our beautiful son “Jayden”. My love for you both knows no boundaries and I will always find this event to be the happiest moment in my life.
Through the good times and challenging times, our union would only continue to grow from strength to strength. Love you lots! Ubi. Onise iyanu ??
One thing is clear, he loves her and wants her to stay ..Let’s hope they work things out and find a level ground .
andyjii?
