Nigeria is known to be a place where people on Social media have zero chills and will say whatever they want no matter when there’s a situation no matter how serious it is.
Stunning media personality, Toolz Oniru Demuren shared this hilarious photo of the reaction of the Nigerian police Versus the reaction of the US police.
If you’re conversant with what’s going on around the world, you outta catch the drift… Lol!
The beautiful daughter of Nollywood veteran, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde, Meraiah Ekeinde, who melted our hearts when she had a photo shoot with her mom for Knorr few months back has given us a reason to smile yet again as she has this stunning photo of her taken at Saint Monica Pier, California.
The beautiful 16 year old can be seen rocking an orange top which was tucked into a belted black trousers chilled with a drink on the seaside railings.

Recall few months back, we brought you the story of Anja Ringgren Loven, the Danish aid worker with the heart gold, who gave life back to a two-year-old child who was abandoned and left to die by his parents on the suspicion that he is a wizard that has been bringing misfortunes to his family.
Loven who is married to a Nigerian from Akwa Ibom State, a society where children are branded as witches and wizards and are subjected to untold hardship, picked up the boy who was malnourished and close to death, nurtured him back to life and today, the kid is full of life and has been adopted by Loven’s African Children’s Aid Education and Development Foundation (ACAEDF), a foundation that has been actively involved in rescuing vulnerable children dubbed child-witches, a phenomenon that has ravaged the South-South state for years.
After being treated in the hospital, the boy who was named Hope by Loven, was been discharged from the hospital and is bubbling with life.
He’s really doing well now. Here are happy photos of baby Hope..all chubby (:
Pastor E. A. Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, has visited the family of the Abuja woman Eunice Olawale who was murdered in Abuja.
According to Punch, the famous pastor said that his church is not seeking vengeance, but wants that the killers become pastors.
Adeboye was reportedly on his way to Lagos after an Abuja crusade, but stopped over to pay a condolence visit to the bereaved family. He said:
“Lord, we just want to say thank you. We pray that you will keep this family in your hand, and that you will be with them. We pray you will comfort and defend them. They too will finish well. We are praying that all the perpetrators of this crime will be found. We are not asking for justice, we are only praying that you will save their souls. It will be glorious if they can come and testify that ‘before we were murderers, but now, we are pastors.’
“As for these little children, give them wisdom; let them succeed and excel. As for the church, you will comfort us. As a result of what had happened, instead of decrease, increase your church. Stand by them and keep away evil from them.”
However, the House of Representatives wants justice and has called for a “thorough” investigation into the killing.
In a motion moved by Ondo State lawmaker, Mr. Babatunde Kolawole, under matters of urgent public importance, the House passed a resolution, asking the Acting Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Ibrahim Idris, to ensure that the killers are brought to book. The resolution also asked for shanties in the FCT to be destroyed.
“We urge the FCT administration to demolish all shanties across FCT in which miscreants are said to be hiding and from which they attack innocent citizens.”

The Rivers State Police Command, reportedly recovered N60 million out of the N100 million in a bullion van that went missing on Friday on its way from Aba in Abia State to Rivers State.
The command said the money, which belonged to Zenith and Stanbic Bank in the state was recovered on Monday after it was abandoned in a taxi in the premises of a popular supermarket in GRA, Port Harcourt.
The bullion van, was declared missing on Friday, and a formal complaint was allegedly filed at Rivers State Police Command, which lead to an investigation.
Addressing pressmen yesterday in Port Harcourt, Deputy Police Commissioner, Mr. Uche Anozia, said:
“On July 8, last Friday, we received a report by one Mr. Stanley Ndubuisi of Bankers Warehouse, about a missing bullion van. It was rented by Zenith Bank and Stanbic Bank, here in Port Harcourt to bring cash from Aba.
“Arriving Port Harcourt, it went to Zenith Bank, delivered the money meant for the bank. According to the complainant, at that point the soldiers disembarked and left. Now it remained the money for Stanbic Bank and the driver alone. Consequently, the driver absconded with the money.
“We got information on July 11, that a certain Ford Explorer was parked at the premises of Everyday Supermarket, located in GRA and that the vehicle contains sacks suspected to be bank property.
“I immediately dispatched my DC Operations to the area to verify. Fortunately for us, it was discovered that the sacks in the vehicle belong to Stanbic Bank because of the seals on them.
“The amount recovered, according to information, is N60,250,000. The driver that parked the car there is the driver of Everyday Supermarket. He is on the run now.”
Delectable Ghanaian actress, Joselyn Dumas has joined the league of women who rock their natural hair.
She stated that she has gotten quite some opinions about her new development but the one which shocked her the most was when someone said rocking her natural hair makes her look poor.
She wrote:
I’ve had all kinds of reactions and compliments( good and confusing ones) since I went for the big chop and decided to go natural for a while and see how versatile and creative I can be with both wigs and natural hair (switch up the looks when I like)…lol, my doctor saw me yesterday and she couldn’t make me out ? and when she finally did, she walked up to me and said #welldone Joselyn this is so beautiful hope you don’t go back too soon to a perm or wigs ?can’t promise was my reply lol…Some say I look different, others said it’s taken a couple of years off, a friend said I no longer look #glam ? but the one comment that surprised me the most was “you look poor” ???. What does that even mean?? My beautiful black hair makes me look poor?? ?? It’s funny how we’ve been brainwashed to think as women of colour how inferior everything we have make or own is…including or beautiful
A police sergeant has been reported apprehended after he allegedly pushed to death, a man who was on the way to bury his younger sister, at Oyingbo area of Lagos State.
One of the sons of the deceased, Ogbole Pius, had, last week, raised the alarm that a policeman pushed his father to death at Oyingbo area of Lagos State police Command, Panti during a stop and search.
The policeman who realized all the deceased car registration documents were intact, told him he could not leave because the his car’s windscreen was tinted at the rear
The deceased is said to have told him, it was because it was still early and dark, around 5:30a.m, that the glass was not tinted.
Out of anger, the policeman reportedly pushed Francis and he fell, broke his head and died instantly
Once again I am compelled to voice out my bewilderment at the stumbling and wobbly kind of governance we have had since you came onboard.
I wonder what you are doing right now.
I wonder if our tears, pains and hopelessness affect you in anyway.
I wonder if you are the one in charge or some other people.
You have tasted leadership before and you know what it entails. I understand that. However, then and now are two different scenarios, two separate dispensations.
We know you.
We know about your war against indiscipline.
We hear about your no-nonsense stand against corruption.
We have read so much about our stolen monies which you have managed to recover. Well done sha.
Meanwhile, the nagging questions that leave me sleepless most nights remain unanswered…
How much money have you collected from the looters so far?
To what use have the monies been put?
From where I stand, it seems you’re the only one in your cabinet fighting corruption while your praise singers are busy washing you all over town trying to convince us that you’re a good man.
I, CharlyBoy, know that you are a “good” man: someone who loves the country, a patriot with a high sense of morals perhaps. But na that one we go chop? Is that all that is needed to fix the rot of over 40yrs.?
I don’t think so!
To a great degree, Nigeria has become a terribly dysfunctional society.
I didn’t vote in the last elections because I just tire with the kalokalo leadership so far. Even when a lot of people wanted change, I wondered what manner of change could come when in our history we never really struggled for anything.
Before you sat on that chair, I proclaimed that Nigeria would only survive under a benevolent dictator; one with lots of selfless love for the country and is willing to lay down his life, one who would deal mercilessly with all those who have ruined our land.
A lot of people thought I was talking about you.
From Boko Haram to Niger Delta Avengers. MASSOB, OPC, to Biafran Avengers, name it, the list is endless.
Mr President Sir, you ought to, as a matter of urgency, review your approach to handling issues because, sometimes diplomacy works better. Excessive force will only breed more discontentment. Take it from me.
Your mark of fair play must cut across board, you must not leave room for us to second-guess your intentions biko, and you must at all times convey clarity of purpose.
It is not possible (or I should say it is unbelievable) that you can’t see that we are swimming in the river of chaos.
It is funny because, those who feel insulated and protected by the State will discover that they are mere sitting ducks!
Just because say boys dey vex!
Putting Nigeria together will take a lot more than childish, nonsensical propaganda.
It will take more than prayers, more than just being a good guy.
Being good is important but not as important as being a no-nonsense ass-kicker; person wey no send, because many things don scatter.
I don’t care if you’re trying to convert all of us to Islam, I don’t care if everyone in your cabinet is your in-law, brother, sister, tribesman, cook, steward or even your MaiGuard.
On behalf of all the frustrated youths in this country, all we need is a leader who can fix things, not the one that comes with excuses.
A leader who is not afraid to admit that he has no clue to certain matters but willing to learn spot on and hands on.
A leader who can’t be comfortable with praise singers.
A leader who is troubled by the cry of poverty-ridden Nigerians.
A leader who can raise our hope once again in our battered country.
A leader who can make us start believing in our Nigeria again.
Oga Presido, do sometin o, boys are vexing!
A Reverend Father with a Catholic diocese in Anambra State (names withheld), who was allegedly burnt by a cooking gas fire in a lover’s house at Allen Avenue, Awka, has been,reportedly, flown abroad for treatment.
A source said the priest was flown abroad to cover traces. He said the lover died in the inferno while the Reverend Father sustained high degree of burnt.
“Your inquiry isn’t exactly false. His (Reverend Father’s) relative is a friend and he did not say anything different from your proposed report,” the source said.
It was gathered that the priest was relaxing in a one-room apartment of the alleged girlfriend (who was identified as a student of a university in the state) on the fateful day when the incident occurred.
“The girl died on the spot, but the priest was hurriedly smuggled away and we now hear that they have flown him abroad, apparently to cover traces. Are there no hospitals in Nigeria?
“I have told them to stop covering this story. What do they want to achieve by hiding this story? The truth should be said and shame the devil,” the source maintained.
But another source, who would not want to be named, said,
“The priest was involved in the gas fire accident trying to save a life. All these side talks are not unnecessary.”
When Abuchi, Onwumelu, the Press Secretary to the Bishop of the Diocese, Most Reverend Paulinus Ezeokafor, was contacted on the telephone for reaction, he said he had heard about the gas fire incident involving a Reverend Father, but had no full facts of the story.
Similarly, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Ali Okechukwu, said the matter had not been reported to his office.
He promised to reach the Divisional Police Officer of ‘B’ Division, where the incident allegedly occurred but he never did.
22 schoolgirls reportedly suffered a ‘mass demonic possession’ after they playfully summoned an evil spirit while playing a game of ‘Charlie Charlie‘.
The girls aged between 12 and 15 took ill in the Choco region of Colombia and were filmed screaming and writhing on the floor in some chilling footage.
Other victims began foaming at the mouth while experiencing hallucinations and another even claimed she could see a ‘man dressed in black’.
According to Colombian television network, Caracol, the girls were taken to a medical centre in Novita where they had to be restrained while fitting.
The schoolgirls, who were all found to be suffering the same symptoms, first experienced seizures while at school after they had finished playing a game of ‘Charlie Charlie‘.
The game, involves two pencils balanced on top of each other over a grid with the words ‘yes’ and ‘no’.
A number of medical tests were conducted and doctors ruled out the possibility of disease, intoxication or use of hallucinogenic substances.
No consistent health problems were detected and the girls’ vital signs eventually returned to normal.
Local mayor Deyler Camacho spoke to villagers following the incident and asked them to remain calm. Meanwhile, a local pastor has started praying against witchcraft.
I’m so engrossed with Falz Music I can’t do without listening to one of his track everyday.
Today, I kept watching Soft Work on YouTube and decided to listen to his lyrics words for words as it’s always soothing and has this scent of wittiness innit.
…and this very line got me;
“Even real talent still need promo, if you fake your own death, you still fit no blow”
This gave people the impression that he was dead, and rumor had it that an insider confirmed him death. Few hours later, his label issued an official statement that he was not dead.
At the end of the whole drama, it was a mere publicity stunt as he released a single that same week. This got people furious on how desperate one can get to attain popularity to the extent to faking one’s death.
Sadly enough for him, the single that made him do all those drama, didn’t do so much in the market, as his fake death was making rounds instead.
The entertainment industry is always full of entertainment just like the name implies, as beefs and drama’s are regularly unfolded.
Many might not know that there is a possible silent beef between Five Star Artiste, Skiibii and rapper Falz the Bahd Guy.
oh well!
To Listen to that very line..Forward the below video to 2:30
In a bid to celebrate the actress as she turns a year older today… Nollywood icon, Richard Mofe Damijo, took to his Instagram page to share how he met with the star actress few years ago at the set of a movie.
He wrote;
“So, years ago I walk into a film location and some young actress walks up to me and goes “You’re RMD right?” I look her straight in the eye and say… “that would be uncle RMD” She goes “oops am so sorry”. Since that time our relationship has evolved and so has she… Rita is not just a super star but a fine actor. I am intrigued at your ability to be sophisticated and fabulous and then be poor looking and cantankerous for me that is one of the hallmarks of your talents. I am glad to have shared some amazing professional moments with you. Salute to you my friend, colleague and sister @ritadominic. Happy birthday”

Rita is one out of the very many celebrities who have been heavily pressured on getting a soul mate cause “they are getting of age and time is no longer on their side” – a stereotype of the Nigerian society.

Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike has informed a Lagos Island Customary Court that he had filed an application before a High Court restraining the lower court from hearing the divorce suit filed by his estranged wife, Emma.
Emma had sometime in 2015 approached the court to dissolve the 16 years union between her and the Nollywood actor on grounds of incessant battery.
The allegation which the actor had vehemently denied, and begged the court not to separate them, saying “I still love my wife’’.
When the matter which was slated for judgment came up on Tuesday, Emeka’s lawyer, Mr Abdul Labi-Lawal informed the court that his client had filed a stay of proceedings before a High Court in Lagos. Emeka Ike and his estranged wife, Emma.
The application sought the High Court’s declaration that the Lagos Island Customary Court lacked requisite jurisdiction to entertain and determine the Ike’s divorce suit.
The application noted that the marriage between the estranged couple was conducted in Enugu State under the Igbo customs and traditions. Emeka also urged the High Court to declare that all the proceedings already conducted by the Customary Court in respect of couple’s marriage be rendered null and void.
Opposing the application, Emma’s lawyer, Mr Iheanyi Awa urged the court to discontinue the stay of application and deliver judgment. Awa, who said Emeka’s application was aimed at arresting the court’s judgment, informed the court that neither his client nor himself had been served with the application.
“It is an attempt to arrest the judgment of the court, I am aware that the respondent wants to arrest the judgment which is to be delivered today. “The stay of proceedings has been decided for a long time and court has ruled that it has jurisdiction to entertain the matter. “It is a ploy to frustrate my client, they just want to delay the judgment till another day. “The court should give its judgment and if they are not satisfied, they can appeal,” he said.
After listening to the submissions of both parties, the court said;
“In view of the submission of the respondent, the stay of proceedings is hereby granted, and the matter is hereby adjourned sine die.’’
A handful of Nigerian celebrities took to their social media pages today, to wish classic Nollywood actress, Rita Dominic a happy birthday.
One of them is proud new father, Kenneth Okonkwo, who had quite an interesting message for the movie veteran – he shared a throwback of the both of them, and said, even when she was a thief, he still loved her.
Not many knows what he means but I speculate that he’s taking a cue from a movie they both starred in way back when their careers were at the infant stage.

Obviously, the police officer seen in these photos taken by Facebook user, Francis Adebayo, didn’t adhere to the rule of drinking responsible as he was captured dead-drunk at the Costain bus stop in Lagos.
The user explained that the sight of the officer drew sighs and degradation to the force with many passerby and onlookers taking a look at him, while many called on the police authorities to weed out such disgraceful officers from the force.
He narrated further that a time, while passers by were having their quite comic sight, “the officer vomited and rolled over to continue with his afternoon nap.”
