Beard Vs Makeup: These hilarious tweets take on the ‘Beard is to Guys What Makeup is to Ladies’ Conversation

By

Increasingly, men are making the effort to groom their facial hairs and we largely have ‘the selfie’ to thank for that, but some netizens feel that the rise of the Beard Gang confirms that the beard is to guys what makeup is to women.

Over the years, men have felt the need to criticise women for not daring to embrace their natural looks. The argument has been that a woman is truly beautiful if she does not have to rely on makeup to enhance her looks, and that guys do not have that luxury.

But, when Drake shaved off his beard just before a recent Saturday Night Life appearance, the ‘world wide web’ went into mourning. He suddenly went from say an 8 to a 5 on a scale of 10 as far as aesthetics go.

We may not all agree with Drake’s decision, but we can definitely agree that in its wake, the conversation on the role of the beard on a man’s face got 3-D real. Inspired by the reactions to Drake’s before beard and after beard looks, we have collated tweets that gauge how people feel.

The guys who are fessing up:

 

Lol, so what do you think? Beard to men as makeup is to ladies?

“I Warned Stephen Keshi that He Needed Prayers” – Popular Prophet Says

By

Primate Elijah Ayodele, the Spiritual Leader of INRI Spiritual and Evangelical Church, Oke-Afa, Isolo, Lagos, has reacted to the demise of former Super Eagles coach, Stephen Keshi, saying he foresaw his death.

The cleric said he warned late Keshi to seek the face of God after the ‘vision’ he saw of him from God.

According to the Sun, Primate Ayodele said he wrote Keshi a personal letter after the South Africa 2013 Nations Cup campaign to intimate him of the divine revelations he got.

Ayodele said, “I have been in deep pains since I learnt of his death. Keshi was a soccer icon.

“He served Nigeria well both as a player and as a coach. I remember writing him a personal letter after the Nations Cup in South Africa and warned him to seek the face of God.

“He needed prayers and I told Nigerians then that Keshi has completed his assignment with the Eagles after the Nations Cup and that Eagles needed another coach to move forward.

“I have sent messages to the NFF and I hope they will listen. I have told them the Abuja Glass House needs some spiritual cleansing.

“On the Eagles, I have made it clear that what the Eagles need now is not a foreign coach. This is what God revealed to me. I’m not saying it to attract publicity or for any financial gain.

“Let Pinnick Amaju and his board look inwards for a coach. From what God has revealed to me, an indigenous coach will not only qualify the country for the World Cup, but will take the Eagles far in the competition in Russia. Bringing a foreign coach will be a disaster.

“They shouldn’t waste money on a white man. The crisis is not good for our football. If it is not resolved everything will be at a standstill and most of those sponsoring the game will pull out.

“There will be no money in NFF and the country will stop doing well. I just hope the gladiators will seek the face of God and know that the country’s interest and that of our youths should come first,” the cleric stated.

Kemi Olunloyo Draws Battle-line Against Jide Kosoko’s Daughter over Alleged Threat Message (Video)

By
Daniel Oyetoro

MsKemi

Controversial social media critic, Kemi Olunloyo is currently enjoying her strategic attention-seeking move of taking a jab at a veteran Nigerian actor, Jide Kosoko immediately after the demise of his wife.

The ex-governor’s daughter is alleging that family members of Jide Kosoko threatened her after her tweet calling for the investigation of Jide Kosoko over his wife’s death. She went on Facebook live to clear the air on her first tweet about Jide Kosoko being investigated for ritual over the death of Henrietta Kosoko who is his third wife to have died.

Kemi then went ahead to threaten Toyin Kosoko who had sent her a threat. In her usal manner, she dragged Pastor Adeboye, Bishop Oyedepo, Bianca Ojukwu and Olamide into the discussion. She also threatened to expose the Toyin Kosoko that threatened her.

Read her message below:

“Good morning it’s June 9, 2016 live from Ibadan, Nigeria. I am Kemi Olunloyo. This video is a very serious one and is a stern warning to the daughter of Jide Kosoko. Earlier this week Jide Kosoko lost his 3rd wife Henrietta Kosoko. And I made it known on social media, I tweeted it and posted it on my Facebook that Jide Kosoko has lost his third wife and he is now a black widower. Well, he has actually being a black widower since he lost his second wife. A black widow is a woman who has lost one, two, three husbands; a black widower is a man who has lost two, three or more wives. It’s an English term, it doesn’t really say anything about the person whether they are responsible for the deaths or not.

“Last night, Toyin Kosoko came to my Facebook and left a threat. She said I’m really silly, I’m looking for people to visit my page, she said a bunch of crap and then she said wait till I see her she is going to get back at me. Toyin Kosoko you don’t really want to mess with me. First of all I’m going to drag you on social media. I am a social media critic; I’m a social media expert. I’m gonna drag you so low by the time you are supposed to be mourning your mum. This is not the time. I have the right to say what I feel as a person; the bottom line is that your father should be investigated for rituals that’s what I wrote. I did not say your father did rituals, I did not say your father used your mother for rituals. I said rituals are prevalent in Nollywood and should be investigated. I don’t like ritualism, when my father got involved in it I reported him and did a documentary for the world to listen to. It traps you and it takes a lot for you to come out and speak about your family.

I spoke about Olamide and how he visits ritualists for his music business. I don’t just makes things up, people tell me things and I verify them. When he refused to sign a female artist, what happened? Later on his male artists started leaving after he signed a female artist. It takes a lot of things for me to say the things I say on social media but one thing I will not tolerate is threat. Now we are in a civilized society right, you could sue me. Adeboye hasn’t sued me, Oyedepo hasn’t sued me, many of the public figures that I’ve talked about haven’t sued me even Bianca Ojukwu who said she does not know Femi Fani-Kayode and I told the world that she knows Femi Fani-Kayode and was pregnant for him twice while we were in London.

“Let me tell you something, everybody can actually go to court and sue me. When you sue me I will come to court and prove you wrong and you will lose and then I will sue you and you will pay me money.

“Your father has a fourth wife he should be worried about her safety and that’s my message for you Toyin Kosoko. Don’t mess around with me, don’t fool around with me, don’t threaten me that you’re gonna get back at me. You can’t get back at me unless you want to do rituals. If you threaten my life I have people waiting for you. Toyin, whoever you are wherever you are I will find out about you fast. This is Ibadan. Toyin Kosoko, this is my message for you, bring it on.”

My stern warning to Tosin Kosoko on THREATS to get back at me for calling Jide Kosoko a Black Widower who should be investigated for Nollywood style ritualism. I will mercilessly drag you down on social media.
BRING IT ON!!

youths beat teachers

The school identified as The St. John’s Basic School, in Accra New Town has been closed down following an attack on female teachers in the school by youth in the area.

Adom Online reports that the attack follows a decision by one of the teachers to ‘discipline’ one of the pupils for misbehaving.

One of thugs is alleged to be a boyfriend of the class five (5) pupil who was punished by her teacher for misbehaving. He had reportedly organised other youths to carry out the attack.

The hoodlums beat and chased out teachers who were mostly females. The thugs also made away with personal belongings of the teachers.

Students run helter-skelter for their lives as the heavily built men went berserk, beating up anyone within reach.

The Assemblyman for the area, Alexander K Mensah-Twumasi indicated that this was not the first time the student in question had shown disrespect to her teachers.

He said the matter has been reported to the police who have begun investigations into the incident.

“There have been reports that, that particular girl has been misbehaving in the school and anytime she is disciplined, she causes chaos in the school. We have reported the case to the police and I can assure you that we will try hard and bring the perpetrators to book” he said.

Five persons were on Friday arraigned before a court in Kano over last week’s killing of a trader on allegation of blasphemy.

News went viral online and social media few days ago after some suspected muslims brutally murdered a christian woman, Bridget Agbahime, who they accused of blasphemy in the city of Kano.

Earlier today, five persons have been arraigned before a court in Kano over last week’s killing of the trader who is reported to be a member of the Deeper Life church.

According to the police in Kano who arraigned the suspects, their names are; Dauda Ahmad, Abdullahi Mustapha, Zubairu Abubakar, Abdullahi Abubakar and Musa Abdullahi as they appeared before Chief Magistrate Court on a four-count charge.

The suspects were charged with incitement, culpable homicide and mischief, based on sections 144,80, 51 and 327 of the penal code.

Dauda Ahmad, who is the prime suspect, was accused of leading others to attack and hack Mrs. Agbahime to death. If found guilty, he could face the death penalty.

At the court, the prosecutor, Dauda Jibrin, said on June 2, at about 4pm, Mr. Ahmad, the prime suspect, went and held the hands of Mrs. Agbahime and slapped her severally on the face before shouting Allahu Akbar with the intent to caused religious upheaval.

He said as Mr. Ahmad shouted Allahu Akbar, Abdullahi Mustapha, Zubairu Abubakar joined him, while others at large, including Salawiyu, Ibrahim, Dini, Isiyaku Mada, Mallam Sani and Yunusa Sufi, also accompanied them to Mrs. Agbahime’s shop located on the first floor, where they beat her with sticks causing serious injuries that led to her death.

Two of the suspects pleaded not guilty to the four charges, while Abdullahi Mustapha and Zubairu Abubakar said they were not even at the scene of the incident.

The Chief Magistrate Muhammad Jibrin adjourned the case to June 28 to allow police complete investigations.

Outrage In Lagos Community As Mysterious Man “Baddo” Rapes And Kills Ghanaian. (Photos)

dead and gone

Residents of Oke Ota community in the Ibeshe, Ikorodu, Lagos State, on Thursday blocked the Ibeshe Road to protest against the rape and killing of a Ghanaian resident, Grace Obinna, by a man identified simply as Badoo.

PUNCH Metro gathered that apart from 27-year-old Obinna, Badoo had raped two other women in the area, cutting them with knives afterwards.

It was learnt that Badoo, who sneaked into women’s apartments only at night, had also struck in Ilemeren, Abule, Oluwoye, Ibeshe Titun, and other communities around Oke Ota.

It was gathered that the attack on Obinna, a mother of one, which occurred around 1am on Sunday, was Badoo’s latest, which had forced other women to relocate to houses outside the community.

It was gathered that on Sunday, Badoo broke the window into Obinna’s apartment and went into the room of the victim while her husband was away.

The assailant was said to have raped Obinna and hit her head with weapons.

It was learnt that when neighbours and local vigilance group members, who heard the victim’s cries, got to the room, the man had fled, while Obinna and her baby were in a pool of blood.

The publication gathered that the Ghanaian was rushed to two hospitals, but was rejected. She was confirmed dead at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, Ikeja.

It was learnt that the matter was reported at the Ipakodo Police Division and the residents added that the suspect had threatened to wreak more havoc in the community.

The panic as it was gathered, prompted the Thursday’s protest, as residents blocked the Ibeshe Road and demanded that security agencies mobilise to the area to arrest the suspect.

When the publication arrived at the scene, the residents, including about 200 women, were seen holding leaves and singing solidarity songs.

The Chairman of the landlords’ association, Pastor Abayomi Adelakun, told PUNCH Metro that the man attempted to rape an 86-year-old woman in the community a week before the Ghanaian fell victim.

He said:

dead and gone 1

“Two weeks ago, he came to Oke Ota and attacked an 86-year-old grandma. He attempted to rape her, but when she resisted, he injured her in the nose. The woman was rushed to a hospital. She survived the attack.
“On Sunday, around 1am, I was called by a security man that Badoo had raped and brutalised Grace (Obinna), who was a teacher with a nine-month-old baby. When we got to the scene, I could not recognise the lady again. All her teeth had been removed; she was in a pool of blood. She was rejected at two hospitals, but confirmed dead at LASUTH.

“Badoo forces himself into women’s rooms, rapes and brutalises them if they resist. He was doing that in neighbouring communities and has now come to Oke Ota.”.

A resident, who gave her name only as Adenike, said Badoo usually sneaked into women’s apartments naked.

She said:

“We do not know the power this man is using. He does not steal; he only sneaks into women’s rooms and rapes them. After the act, he uses a handkerchief to rub the victim’s private parts. Women, who have seen him at night, said he also rubbed oil on his body and walked naked so that no one could easily hold him. All of us can no longer sleep in our houses.”

The Baale of Oke Ota community, Chief Awoyemi Tijani, told PUNCH Metro that his wife also could not sleep at home because of the attacks.

He said:

, “Nobody has seen him in the daytime. I don’t know what he looks like. We call on the government to guarantee our security and safety. Since the day we heard about this, my wife no longer sleeps at home. I am wondering if Badoo is a spirit.”

The Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, SP Dolapo Badmos, said the command had commenced investigation into the incident.

She said:

“The command learnt about the protest, although the incident of rape and murder was never reported at the division. All necessary mercenaries have been set in motion to arrest the culprit and to forestall a recurrence.”

A suspected shoplifter got caught stealing an entire frozen meat section – in his pants.

The alleged thief, wearing a red T-shirt, was collared by an employee at the store as he tried to walk out with the meat tucked into his sweat pants.

Challenging him over the alleged theft, the employee fumed,

“this is the third or fourth time you’ve done this to me,” before demanding his imprisonment.

In reply to the staff member’s challenge, the man says:

“I’ve got kids to feed.”

But the employee hits back, saying:

“I don’t care. I’m sorry, man, I’ve got kids to feed to,” as the man shrugs his shoulders.

The man then appears to pull four racks of ribs, two packages of hamburger and several pork chops from his pants before apologising for his actions.

“We did this the other day, too,” the exasperated store worker responds.

“There Were Stronger Names He Called Me Like B**ch” – Stella Damasus Tells Her Personal Story Of Abuse.

By
Michael Badejoko
-

stella damasus

Nollywood actress cum talk show host, Stella Damasus has disclosed her story of abuse in a new blog post of hers. She says she hoped her story will give other women caught in violent and abusive relationships the courage to seek help.

Her story below:

“A few days ago I was reminded that it was okay to be vulnerable and human. I seem to have forgotten how relaxing it can be to let it all out sometimes, not caring if I would be judged, laughed at or insulted. I had to remember that it was important to share some experiences that may actually save or help someone who is probably going through the same thing.

My story begins on a fun and exciting Saturday night in Lagos Nigeria, where I attended an after party. I met a tall dark and handsome man who was introduced to me through a mutual friend. We spoke for a few minutes, exchanged numbers and then parted ways. I didn’t see or hear from him again until about 6 months later when I got a call on my way to a friend’s private birthday party. He asked where I was and I told him where I was going, so he wanted to meet up at the venue and that was fine.
He came and we continued the conversation that we didn’t get to finish the first time we met. After that night we started seeing each other more often as he would call me and say all the right things, then ask to see me.
So there I was feeling special, thinking that this stud must really like me so much that he had to see me about four times a week. My head was in the clouds because he came to me in a very honest and humble manner, he didn’t have much but was not embarrassed at all because of who I was and what I had. In my head I was thinking “Wow what a confident man”.
Needless to say, I fell for him hopelessly even against advice from everyone around me.

The relationship started and instead of taking time to really study and know him, I decided to give, give and give without thinking twice. I gave time, I gave energy, I gave money, I gave respect, I gave submission, I gave love, I gave honor, and I gave everything a woman would, just to make her man feel important and loved.
I gave money and everything that comes with making a man stand proud and feel wealthy.
I did this so much that even when you ask me a question or want me to appear somewhere I would ask him first or look out for his expression to get approval.
All this was to make him feel like the head, make him feel like the man, make him feel respected and know that his financial status does not make him less of a man, make him feel like he has his authority, and make him feel like he had the best woman any man could ever ask for.
Everyone around me hated the fact that I did more and more to make him happy and then they started noticing that I was loosing my happiness, I was loosing weight, I was loosing myself but the funny thing is that I didn’t even notice. Eventually, I got so angry that I started pushing my friends and family away.
He kept telling me that everyone around me expected me to do better in choosing a man just because he didn’t have money or a job. I bought into that and attacked everyone, telling them that they were being unfair and judgmental. So I made it my job to make sure he had something to do, he had a car, he had his own apartment, he had the latest devices etc.
All of this was to prove everybody wrong so they could see what he could become if we just gave him a chance and helped him.

After a while I started noticing that he became aggressive towards my friends, anyone I introduced him to, people I worked with etc. All of a sudden he didn’t like anybody anymore and didn’t want them around us. Then it all grew into calling me names at the slightest provocation even though I was not sure of what I did to provoke him. He would say things like “I am doing you a favor by being with you”, “how easy do you think it is to find a single guy like me to date a woman with kids”?, “you are too controversial to have a sane man stay with you”, “the only thing you have going is your career other than that you are not really worth it”.
There were stronger names he called me like BITCH and other curse words he would use, but I would rather not even write them.The worst part in all of this is, after hearing these words over and over again I got used to it and even started thinking that he was right.
When he was done insulting me, he would walk up to me and say “see what you made me do, you are the only one who can get me to this point, you know how much I love you so why are you turning me into this monster?”, and yours truly would stupidly start to apologize for making him abuse me mentally.
As far as I was concerned at that time, it was strong love and because he loved me madly, him getting upset with me, made me the monster.

I lived in this lie for a long time and was still too blind to see how awful I started looking and feeling. I didn’t even want to be seen too much so that no one would ask me if I was ill. People would come to me with proof of him cheating but for some silly reason I would make excuses for him. Out of fear of an argument I would not even want to confront him about it. I was so scared that I would ask myself “if you confront him and he leaves out of anger, are you sure you would meet someone else who is better? This was where i started using the phrase THE DEVIL YOU KNOW IS BETTER THAN THE ANGEL YOU DON’T KNOW. Silly silly phrase because the truth is, if you know someone to be a devil you are better off without the person.
Anyway, I stayed in the relationship until one day when he got upset that a guy gave me the card to his hotel because he wanted my band to sing there. He got so mad that he punched the wall in my study. When he did that, it was as if a very thick veil was pulled from my eyes. That was when I realized that the kind of anger that made him punch a wall can even push him to hit me since I was the cause of his anger.
I don’t know if it was the prayers of my mother or my best friend’s, but something gave me courage that day and kept urging me to get him out of my life before it was too late. I yelled for my home staff and they came into the study and I asked them to get him out. I told him boldly never to come near me, my home or my family. That was how God delivered me from my abuser. If he had not punched that wall, I don’t think I would have had the courage to end the relationship.

Sometimes, when women find themselves in an abusive relationship, it’s easy for others to judge them or ask them to just pick up and leave. Even though it’s the right thing to do, it’s not that easy when you are the one in the relationship. Abuse takes a stronghold on the victim and messes up their mental state. If the victim is not careful she may accept the blame and never find the boldness to leave.
It is also worse for those who are not financially independent.
Mental abuse can actually turn out to be worse than physical abuse because with the physical you can prove it, you can also see the scars and they can be treated. Don’t get me wrong it is extremely dangerous to go through it but with mental abuse, there is hardly any proof and no one can see the bruises or the scars so you don’t even know how or what to treat. It may affect you mentally for years and that is scary because it definitely affects any other relationship you may have, if ever.
THE ABUSER’S MODE OF OPERATION
1. Identifies your weakness and uses it to gain your love and trust
2. Tells you the things they know you want to hear.
3. Gets rid of everyone around you who has the ability or capability to help/rescue you
4. Makes you emotionally dependent on him
5. Feeds your mind with things that you will believe are beneficial to your relationship
6. Uses your emotions to control your mind and reasoning
7. Tells you negative things about yourself and repeats it so it sticks in your mind
8. Compares you to others just to prove that you are not worth it and not good enough
9. Gives you the impression that he is doing you a favor by being with you.
10. Blames you for things even when you don’t know about them
11. Yells and picks fights at the slightest provocation
12. Starts to get physical but begs for forgiveness, telling you that his love for you makes you the only person that can get him that mad.
13. Makes you think the abuse is your fault and you have to fix it
14. Intentionally allows you to loose yourself/esteem so that he can gain full control of your mind
15. Batters your mind so much that even when he hits you and there are visible scars, you find yourself making excuses for him
16. You become afraid of the unknown so you stay in the relationship because you don’t want to start over in a new relationship
17. He gets you to the phase where you become numb so you can’t even feel that something is wrong.

t continues like this until something really bad happens or the woman runs away.
The good thing is that there is help and support for women and men going through any form of abuse.
Please don’t die in silence and don’t believe that the abuse is your fault. Speak out and get help.
If you or someone you know needs help please send me a message and I will give you resources and contacts that can help.
If you would also like to share your story, please let me know and You can be anonymous.

Martin McNally, 29, from Dundee, had enjoyed a night out with girlfriend Nicole and, when they returned home, helped himself to a few more drinks.

He asked Nicole for a mutual friend’s number – and she gave him his own number by mistake.

Every time he tried to call the number, it would beep and send him a message saying he had missed a call.Instead of realizing it was his ow number, he kept texting and calling himself.

He texted the number again and again to let his friend know he was trying to call him, demanding ‘stop phoning me, I’m phoning you‘ – only to receive the same message back.

And the ‘argument‘ lasted for more than five minutes. When he woke up the next morning, Martin discovered a load of calls and text messages – and obviously his friends found this hilarious when he shared the anecdote.

Martin said:

“I was too drunk to realise it was my own number. I must have got frustrated in the end and left it because I didn’t realise what I had done until the next day when I went through my phone calls.When I saw the repeated messages I thought ‘what the hell have I done’. I showed it Nicole and she was laughing at me. She is at uni studying business management so she clearly has the brain cells.
“I thought it was really funny once I realised what I had done and just how long it went on for but at the time it was happening it was so funny, just really confusing and frustrating.

Martin sent five text messages to himself during the argument, receiving the same five ‘in reply’, including “Stop phoning me I’ll phone u lol” and “f**king hell if hud aff [hold off] I’ll phone u“.

Martin said:

“To have been texting and ringing myself repeatedly for more than five minutes and to have been getting frustrated without realising it was my own number is pretty crazy.

“I showed it to all my friends and everyone was laughing at it. They all think it’s hilarious. I’m taking it in good humour though it does show I can be an idiot.
“Though in my defence I’ve never done anything like this before – or at least not that I remember.”

The suspected killers of kidnapped Colonel Samaila Inusa, yesterday opened up on how they killed the later military officer.

The suspects were paraded by Kaduna State Police Commissioner Adamu Ibrahim.Col. Inusa was abducted on the highway and taken away. His body was later found.

Prime suspect Emeka Okeke, 44, told reporters that they did not originally plan to kill the officer but he died during a struggle with the gun.

“Me and my group specialise in car snatching, we are not kidnappers,” Okoke said

According to The Nation, recounting how they attacked the officer, whose identity they did not know, he said:

”One Sunday evening, we were on patrol to snatch any vehicle we saw. It was in the process we saw Colonel Inusa’s vehicle coming from Police College down to Refinery Junction and we collected the car.

“ We immediately handed over the car to Dan-Sokoto and he took it away. Then, we took him to Abuja by-pass. I asked him to lie down and relax his mind, because we were only interested in the car, not his life.

“I told him, you are bigger than this car, and if you live, you will buy another car’. Shortly after then, he said he wanted to drink water, so I went to the car to bring pure water for him. As I bent down to give him the water, the man snatched the gun from me and quickly removed the magazine.

“But one bullet was already in the panel. So, he was holding the gun butt and I was holding the mouth. So, we were dragging the gun. At a point, the gun was facing me and he attempted to pull the trigger, but he could not do that and I succeeded in turning the gun in his direction. He pulled the trigger and fired himself.

“So, I told him, you know I didn’t want to kill you, but you have killed yourself now. But that man nearly killed me.” He said.

Asked where his gang members were when he was dragging the gun with the Colonel, Okeke said, they all ran away.

He added that one week after, they started reading on the pages of newspapers and on social media that the man they killed was a senior military officer.

Asked how much they sold the car, Okeke said: “they gave us N800,000 and we shared.

Okeke and his gang members – Kabir Ibrahim 23, Chijoke Ogwuanye 41 and Ekene Precious 43 – were tracked down in Gonin-Gora area of Kaduna.

No More Lagos Burial for Henrietta Kosoko as Family Does Not Recognize Jide Kosoko As Her Husband

Late Henrietta, and her husband Jide Kosoko.

The Funeral service for late Henrietta Emumeakpor-Kosoko slated for Regina Mundi, Mushin, Lagos has been cancelled.

Not only that, her remains will also not be interred at Atan Cemetery, Yaba, Lagos as earlier released by the burial committee.

According to one of the members of the committee who spoke to encomium.ng under the condition of anonymity, the reason for the cancellation of the Lagos funeral arrangement was not unconnected with the fact that the Henrietta’s family from Delta state insisted that their daughter must not be buried outside.

“It’s true that Henrietta’s remains will no longer be buried in Lagos. Her siblings and other members of her family have insisted they’re not burying her in Lagos as earlier planned by Jide Kosoko.

‘Henrietta is Urhobo woman from Delta state, where they cherish their culture. Jide Kosoko didn’t go to her family house in Delta to pay her dowry,’ the source said.

This decision however didn’t go down well with Jide Kososko but there is nothing he can do about it

“I Can Never Go Back To My Ex-husband, Never!” – Actress, Ayo Adesanya

ayo-adesanya

During an Interview with Sun News, Nollywood actress, Ayo Adesanya has revealed that she can never go back to her ex husband.

She also spoke about her future relationship and that she was still willing to try out marriage and a woman who loves peace a lot.

Any new thing we should expect from you?
Yes sure! I’m coming up with my own production. It’s going to be a fantastic one. I have been in some new TV series as well as some musical videos, and hopefully more are coming. As you know, I haven’t featured on a music video before, but I had that privilege this year, so it’s something I’m excited about. I have done like two now.

Are you gradually taking a dive into music?
(Laughs) I can’t say but expect the unexpected. Anything can happen, no one can tell. I might decide to give it a trial.

Obviously, this year holds better things for you
Without being told, I know this year would be far better than last year. It’s going to be awesome. I know it would surely get better before the end of the year.

Yoruba actresses seem confined within the indigenous movie circles, do you agree with that?
I do both English and Yoruba movies. I think, in my case, it’s almost the same. This year, I have done majorly English movies. I don’t think I’m confined to only indigenous movies.

You are one of the most beautiful and sought after actresses, what’s your beauty routine?
I don’t do much. I just clean my face and rub whatever I want to rub. But majorly, I take very good care of my face, especially my eyes. I do water, I do lemon and I visit the spa a lot. I don’t take those things serious but I believe that I’m blessed.

What do you do in your spare time?
I read a lot and I also watch news on TV. Whenever I’m not shooting, I try as much as possible to relax at home with family.

Talking about family, are there chances you’ll go back to your ex-husband?
(Screams) No. Never! You people have started looking for trouble again. Well, that’s all I can say. Never!

Even for the sake of your son that looks so much like his father?
Please, my son looks like me. He is my replica. So, stop saying otherwise.

When do you intend giving marriage another shot?
I don’t know. Anything can happen. But why not, indeed marriage is a beautiful thing.

What lessons did you learn from your previous marriage?
I have learnt a lot with the experience. I learnt to take things easy. Most of the things I learnt will be applied in any new relationship that I’m going into. I will also make sure I check out some qualities in that man before I go into relationship with him.

What makes you happy?
Peace! I love peace! I love when everything and everyone is at peace, it gives me extra joy. My family at peace, my friends at peace, I’m at peace, then I’m as happy as a bird.

Are you saying you lacked peace in your former marriage?
I didn’t say that oh! But I like peace a lot. When there’s no peace but troubles around me, I run.

Levon Holton-Teamer sent her 15-year-old daughter, a freshman at Wiregrass Ranch High School in Wesley Chapel, to go clean her room on Sunday afternoon, minutes later when the mom didn’t hear any movement in her room, she went to look for her daughter, Tovonna.

Holton-Teamer said Wednesday:

“I go to the bathroom; I couldn’t get in the bathroom. The bathroom light was off so I tried to get in and I looked down and I saw the puddle of blood. I tried to apply the pressure, the pressure to her head. I tried to save her,”

Tovonna had taken her mum’s gun from her mother’s purse and shot herself in the head.

Her mum said 3 hours before her death, Tovonna had expressed concern over a nude picture her friends had taken of her in the shower without her permission.

“Tovonna would say, ‘Mommy, I owe them; I owe them’. I said, ‘What do you mean you owe them?’ I couldn’t understand what was wrong,” Holton-Teamer said.

Hours after Tovonna’s death, her aunt, Angel Scott, took to Facebook to find out why the teenager had killed herself.

Scott learned it was actually a nude video of the girl, taken while she was in the shower not a photo.

“I just said, ‘If anybody knows anything, what happened? Have you heard of anything? Do you know who these kids are who have the pictures?’ I thought it was just pictures and then the kids started inboxing me”.

“Everybody was out there talking about her and calling her names and they said it went up on social media, Snapchat. I’d never heard of that before about 3 something that afternoon,” she said.

The Pasco County School District heard about the bullying complaints and have turned the investigation over to the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office to continue to investigate.

Tovonna’s picture had been shared thousands of times on social media with the #stopbullying. The teen’s family is now calling for justice.

The teen’s aunt, Angel Scott said:

“I want them to pay, to feel what we feeling, even if their child is convicted or in trouble they can go visit their child,” Scott said.
