TB Joshua Prophesies Dangerous Terrorist Attack On Nigeria & Ghana Soon

TB-Joshua

Pastor T. B. Joshua’s says an attack is imminent in Nigeria and Ghana very soon. The popular Lagos based prophet has asked members of his Church to pray against planned ‘foreign attacks’ on both countries.

According Yen.com.gh, TB Joshua made the prophesy while speaking during his Church’s service, which was beamed live on Emmanuel TV on Sunday, April 10.

A 2:56s video culled from the live sermon on Sunday, shows the prophet urging thousands of his SCOAN congregants to begin sporadic prayers for the two countries in order to scuttle the ‘evil plans’ of the unnamed attackers.

The Prophet was even specific on days on which the attackers will strike, predicting the attacks will take place at gathering of people.

I am seeing Thursday, Friday, Saturday – if I may say Thursday – because these evil people they are very funny. Anything can just happen. You will be very shocked to see what will happen, because when the prayer is going in this direction they [attackers] change to [another] direction.

I see Thursday, Friday. Pray for these two nations – Nigeria and Ghana – over gathering in any way; over attack. I am seeing attack and that will be in a foreign way. The attack will come not in a local way. So please open your lips and pray for these two nations for protection” he told congregants.

He would however not state whether the said Thursday or Friday or Saturday would be in this month or the next, explaining “not necessarily this week, because it is a battle between the evil spirit and the holy spirit.”

It would be recalled that T.B. Joshua recently claimed he prophesied the terror attack that took place in Brussels, Belgium on Tuesday, March 22, some weeks back (recap).

I was stoned with pure water bags – Tiwa Savage

tiwas-02

Mavin’s first lady and singer, Tiwa Savage talks about how she got stoned with pure water bags.

Tiwa who is known for her electrifying performances revealed at a recent engagement at the Youth Enterprise Conference 2016 she was once embarrassed on stage at her first major performance upon her return to the country as an aspiring R&B artiste.

According to her, “My first performance at Kennis Easter Fiesta was a disaster! I was stoned with pure water bags because I was singing English songs and blowing too much phonetics.”

The singer then added that this experience inspired her breakthrough single – ‘Kele kele love’.

She said, “I ran back to my husband who was my boyfriend at that time and cried ‘my people are not accepting me, I don’t know what to do.’ He told me to start singing songs that they could relate with. And that was how I came up with ‘Kele kele love’.”

The ‘Eminado’ crooner recently welcomed her son, Jamil, with producer husband, Tee Billz, on July 22, 2015.

Nigerian Grammy Award Winning Singer, Sade Adu used to have a very beautiful daughter…until she decided to become a man.

The 20-year-old named Mickailia “Ila” Adu was born to Bob Morgan, a Jamaican-American music producer who was with Sade Adu way back when.

Ila is a lesbian, who is now “transitioning” from a lesbian to a male identity. This means she wears men’s clothing, takes male hormones and completely changed her identity.

She was quite beautiful as a girl, she looks rather different as a ‘man’. There are also photos with her (him?) and her (him?) girlfriend. See some more photos of him (her) below:

Shading Davido? Don Jazzy Rants About People Who Post Cash on Snapchat

Don Jazzy Throws Light Shade At Linda Ikeji For Being Unmarried

So, a few days ago, Don Jazzy took to Twitter to rank a little about people who post photos of their cash on snapchat…and we all know them HKN Boys are one of em’ culprits.

“E be like say if you post money for Snapchat, then count to 100, Snapchat doubles the money for you,” the music producer wrote, adding, “I feel like we are carrying last o. There must be something that people gain by posting money on snapchat. I go try.”

The post met a host of reactions from fans who said he was too old for such childish act, but a few read meaning to the unprecedented comments. “If you want to flaunt the money you do as you please. But who are you referring to,” asked a fan, and he was met with silence.

Many times, Davido has shared photos of wads of dollars on his social media. Following backlash from fans in March, he told fans that they will be ‘depressed’ if they keep following him on the social media platform.

Ciara refused to read out her ex lover, Future’s name as she announced the nominees for the top rap artiste category for the Billboard Music Awards on Monday.

The singer shared an awkward on-air moment with co-presenter Ludacris on Good Morning America.

Ciara suddenly fell silent after she called out Drake and Fetty Wap.

Ciara leaned to her right as the camera panned away, and an obliging Ludacris who understood called out Future’s name.

She later stepped in again, announcing nominees which include Wiz Khalifa and Silento.

Music: Humblesmith Ft. Flavour – Jukwese

IMG-20160412-WA0000-768x768

Still riding on the wings a strong showing with Osinachi Remix featuring Davido, Pop Sensation, and N-Tyze Entertainment artiste, Humblesmith has decided to fly his soaring brand to new industry heights by dropping another highly listenable Single.

He calls it, Jukwese. And this time he features another top flight: Flavour Nabania.

“We just have to set Humblesmith’s career on airplane mode,” said Bob Kelly Ovie Williams, CEO N-Tyze Entertainment. “Our industry strategy for Humble is ‘to fly. To fly higher, and to keep flying.’ Osinachi began the flight, and while it’s still mid-flight, we have launched Jukwese – a song written and sang with passion by the combination our own Humblesmith and Flavour.”

Industry ears who have listened to Jukwese before its official release describe the song as a soon-to-be classic that’s endlessly playable.

Rightly so, Humblesmith’s red hot joint is percussion-soaked, cleverly-written, fluid, feel-good, and fresh enough to guarantee repeated listen.

Interestingly, “Jukwese means ‘ask around’,” Humblesmith says. “And if you ask around, you will be told Jukwese is more than my new single. It’s an expression. A dedication to my very true fans. Fans who enjoyed Osinachi so much, it became an on-Air regular, a DJ Favourite, a Club Hit, and a social media buzz. Now we are soaring to newer career altitudes with Jukwese… So, the song is for them. The true great fans.”

Deftly-produced by Mixsta Dimz, Jukwese (Humblesmith’s 4th single) is symphonically mixed with Live Guitar by Fiokee.

Ghanaian Pastor Releases Nude Photos of ex-wife on Facebook

Pastor-Exlover

He had allegedly ordered a photographer last year to take a nude picture of Mame Kesewah in their bedroom.

The pastor who had two kids with the ex-lover, then posted the nude pictures on social media which caught the attention of many in the town.

Kesewah, recounting what happened on the duty the photos were taken, said that her face had been wiped with something by the pastor, shortly before the the photographer came into their room.

She then became unaware of what transpired thereafter until Sunday evening when a friend came to inform her that her naked pictures were everywhere on social media.

The Chief of Dokrokyiwa, Baffour Anom who confirmed the incident to Ghanaian paper, Daily Guide, said the incident uncle of the pastor came to his palace on Monday and reported that, the pastor after divorcing his wife last year, posted the lady’s nude pictures on social media.

After his attention was drawn to this, he then ordered the arrest of the pastor and the photographer by the Kraboa Coaltar police.

When contacted about the matter, Ayensuano District Police confirmed that the suspects are currently in their custody and will be arraigned before a judge soon.

House Maid caught on camera cleaning her private parts with napkin she uses to wipe her boss’ dishes

This bizarre occurrence is another reason people have to think twice before employing house helps…

A young lady was caught on an hidden camera using a napkin to wipe her private parts, feet and other parts of her body before using the same napkin to wipe the dishes she would use to either cook or serve her employers with.

The lady who is probably a disgruntled domestic worker, took out her anger in the most disgusting manner and the photos have really gone viral.

Yet another reason to treat such workers with love and like family.

10 Ways Actor, RMD’s Life Has Changed 20 years After The Death Of His First Wife

1-wpid-mofedamijo_2015-12-25_16-06-381-650x400

It is 20 years since Nollywood superstar actor, Richard Mofe Damijo lost his first wife, May Mofe-Damijo (nee Ellen-Ezekiel) to complications related to fibroid surgery.

The late May was the publisher of Classique Magazine, Editor of Quality Magazine and host of Mee & You Television Talk Show.

MEE (May Ellen Ezekiel) as she was fondly called was an amazing career woman, amiable talk-show host, mother and philanthropist whose affable personality endeared her to everyone who came across her.

It was no surprise then, when after her death on Saturday, March 23, 1996, RMD was quick to point out that she remained the great woman who polished him and helped his fledgling career.

As the people’s favourite actor stages a comeback to our screens after a long hiatus, Encomium.ng in this piece highlights some major changes in his life in the last 20 years.

1. MEE’s company collapsed
MEE’s publication, Classique Magazine, a publication that was doing pretty well before her untimely death disappeared from the newsstands shortly after her death.

2. RMD Floated Company, Whitewater
The Actor floated a PR outfit, Whitewater Ltd. with its office located at Ikeja, Lagos.

3. His acting career gained traction and he became a household name
RMD started acting heavily after May’s passing as he kept landing major roles back to back. Many still have fond memories of his roles in blockbuster movies such as Out of Bounds, Hostages, Diamond Ring, Private Sin and many more. Good times…

4. He remarried, tying the knot with Jumobi Adegbesan
He found love again in popular TV presenter, Jumobi Adegbesan and he wasted no time in tying the knot with her in year 2000, four years after MEE’s demise. His public expression of his love to Jumobi on her birthday earlier this year melted hearts over and over.

He said, “Love of my life. My Quarterback. My Rock. My wife. I am everything I am because you love me. Warts’n All. Ur d one God gave me to love me as I am. 16 years later see where we are. See how I am. You make it all look beautiful. Mother of my children. My Adumaradan. I know you’ll rather I don’t bring you out here but I will love them to know the OTHER source of my strength and pride. Thank you baby for keeping my feet on the ground and making it real. You are my HERO. I love you. Happy birthday my ABK.

5. He became a commissioner and served for two terms
RMD was appointed Commissioner For Culture & Tourism in Delta state where he served for two terms.

6. He shed weight significantly
HE caused a major stir in 2014 when pictures of him looking dangerously frail circulated on the internet, leaving many worried about his health. The din was so much that he had to explain the reasons for his new look. “I am not sick. I changed my lifestyle and lost weight and I am looking better than I have ever looked in my adult life.”

7. His son, OgheneKome got married
December 2013 produced one of RMD’s proudest moments as his son, Oghenekome Mofe Damijo got married to his beau, Eniola Oluwafunmilayo in a well attended ceremony.

The handsome actor became a granddad in March, 2015 when his son and wife gave birth to a baby boy.

8. RMD became an ambassador for GLO
In 2014, telecoms giant, Globacom announced the signing of RMD alongside other top actors, including Pa Aluwe, Zebrudaya, Mr. Latin, Madam Kofo among others as the company’s brand ambassadors.

9. Slays Effortlessly In Collaborative Shoot With Nigerian Designer
Nigerian menswear designer, Temitayo Ilesanmi Nathan (T.I. Nathan) hooked up with the fashionable actor to tell a story that portrays the many sides of Mr Mofe-Damijo’s life and lifestyle.

The result was a photoshoot that featured a line of bespoke pieces that convinced all that RMD could have become a successful international model if he had wanted to.

10. Staged a comeback to the screen with a major Soap Opera, HUSH
Fans of the superstar could hardly believe their ears when it was announced that their darling RMD was staging a major comeback to the screens via Africa Magic in a new telenovella, ‘Hush’.

Sunday Oliseh Appointed Into Fifa Technical Committee

Sunday Oliseh Appointed Into Fifa Technical Committee

According to Vanguard report, the former Super Eagles Coach, Sunday Oliseh has been appointed into the new technical committee of world football governing body, Fifa.

The former Super Eagles skipper managed the team for seven months before he resigned in February over internal wrangling and a perceived lack of support from the Nigerian Football Federation (NFF).

That is not likely to be the case on his new job as Fifa is a familiar ground for the former Borussia Dortmund and Juventus midfielder who worked as part of the technical study group during the 2014 World Cup in Brazil.

‘Honoured to be appointed into the ‘new look’ FIFA Technical Department. Next mission; The 2016 Rio Olympics football,’ he wrote on his verified twitter handle (@SundayOOliseh).

Belgium-based Oliseh, who was quick to call for God’s intervention during the Brussels terror attacks, has been keeping himself busy since vacating the Super Eagles job as he was seen recently in Germany where he went to watch the UEFA Champions League match between Bayern Munich and Benfica.

He was billed to be at the House of Representatives for a hearing into his tempestuous stint as Eagles coach but has yet to honour the invitation.

Olajumoke Orisaguna Relocates From Hotel To Luxury Apartment In Surulere, Lagos

Bakery-Jumoke-04

Agege bread hawker turned model, Olajumoke Orisaguna along with her husband, Sunday and two children, Grace and Precious will move into their luxury Surulere (Lagos) apartment this week.

Sources close to Sujimoto Construction, the company that got her the apartment (rent and furnishing) for five years, told us that the finishing touches are being dabbed on the abode. And in a matter of days, the three –bedroom pad will be occupied.

The 27 year-old lucky damsel – discovered in February after the photo bombed TY Bello’s shoot of Tinie Tempah in Yaba area of Lagos – is getting ready to move from the hotel in Sabo, Yaba (Lagos) where she has made home in the last few weeks.

Before then, she was squatting at Liberty Bakery (on Commercial Avenue, Sabo) along with scores of hawkers.

Orisaguna, a hair stylist from Iree (Osun) had come to Lagos in January (her second adventure in the mega city) following closure of the Polytechnic and dwindling sales.

Now with various endorsements and gifts running into millions (from Payporte, Shirleys’s Confectionaries, Stanbic IBTC, Sujumoto Construction, Divine Eldocuments and Mrs. Abiodun Obakin of Biobak Restaurant, among others), another endorsement will be unveiled next week.

Insiders confirmed that a company producing baby products has signed her on – and the unveiling will be done next week.

From poverty to prosperity, the miracle in the life of Olajumoke Orisaguna has fascinated millions across the world…

Nigerian starboy, Wizkid and his on and off girlfriend, Tania Omotayo may actually still be dating; this is what their fans think. And it is all thanks to the photo Tania posted on her IG page which shows her geared up in a shirt weirdly similar to one Wizkid wore 22 weeks ago.

Nosy fans searched out the photo and called Tania out, asking if she is still dating the singer who now has two sons with different women.

The sister to Peter Okoye’s wife also unfollowed Wizkid, publicly ending their relationship, and when fans rumoured that she was pregnant with his child, she quickly dismissed the report and said she was only feeding well.

‘OBO Palace Almost Done!’:Davido Reveals His House-in-Progress

‘OBO Palace Almost Done!’:Davido Reveals His House-in-Progress

So, Moments ago, Davido took to Instagram to share a clip of his new building which is still under construction. “OBO palace in progress,” he captioned the clip, adding, “I feel blessed.”

And then he included a sealed-lip emoji, indicating that he is not revealing the location this time.

Recall that the HKN boss has been talking of moving from his current Lekki residence in Lagos, and this is due to the number of requests he gets each morning from people asking for favours. Last week, he shared snaps of a twin duplex complete with swimming pool which he said he was considering renting, and now, with this new ‘palace’ tucked away in an undisclosed location, he may successfully cut himself off from the public.

Gang Members Kill A Pastor For Preaching Repentance To Them

gang

Chukwu Ekere, a pastor based in Rivers state have been killed for preaching repentance in the oil-rich state.

According to the police, the Rivers State Police Command arrested the culprits along with four suspected kidnappers and one armed robber.

The police also recovered stolen vehicles.

In a statement by Ahmad Muhammad, DSP, the Public Relations Officer, PPRO, he said the arrests were made at Ohigha in Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni Local Government and in Diobu, Port Harcourt.

The suspects arrested include: Henry Ajie, 23; Bright Ajie, 22, Dadison Ogadima, 22, and Sampson Dibia, 30, all of Ohigha village for complicity in the kidnapping of Mrs Igila Sunday of Ohigha village on January 7, 2016.

According to the police command “the suspects confessed to the allegations of the victim’s kidnapping after which they raped, strangulated her and buried her corpse in shallow grave at Ogbosi.

“The gang also confessed to have been responsible for the kidnapping Pastor Chukwu Ekere of same Ohigha community and killed him for the simple reason that the man of God disturbed them with his preaching of repentance and also for urging them to shun their nefarious activities and accept God.”

In a related development, the Command arrested Chidebere Ngangbu, 35 years and recovered two suspected stolen vehicles from him. The suspect was arrested on April 7 at about 10:30 pm along Ejike street, Diobu, Port Harcourt.

His arrest was on the heels of a reliable tip off that the suspect was sighted with vehicles presumed to have been stolen.

“The vehicles recovered from him are brown Toyota Camry with registration number Rivers SKP 239 HR and brown Nissan Murano SUV With registration No. Lagos KRD 190 AC.

The police said the suspects will be charged to court as soon as the investigations are concluded.

“A Lot Of People Are Watching,”- Funke Akindele Speaks On Her Relationship With JJC

Ever since her first marriage to Kehinde Oloyede broke up in 2013, not much has been heard about the love life of one of Nigeria’s sweethearts, Funke Akindele.

In a recent chat with Saturday Beats, the actress said that she intentionally shielded her private life from the public because of what she faced during her first failed marriage.

Read what she said below:

“I really don’t like discussing about my private life anymore because it pays to keep that part of your life secret.

A lot of people are watching and sometimes you read a lot of negative comments about you which could make you want to derail, so it is better to keep matters of the heart close to the heart.

I am the one in it and I know what is good for me. I am sorry I don’t want to talk about anything that has to do with my private life.”

However, it seems her new found love, popular rap artiste, JJC Skill, does not share her opinion going by the Snapchat videos of his posts on the social media.

Although the duo are currently in the United Kingdom, last week, the rap caused a stir when he posted some snapchat pictures of his kids on the dining table and just before the video ended, the camera faced Funke Akindele, who seemed to be in her pyjamas.

Before the dust could settle on the snapchat video that had everyone talking, the rap artiste posted another video earlier this week.

This time, it featured his mother praying for a delighted Funke Akindele.

One of the prayer points was that the actress would be blessed with the fruit of the womb and she would provide her with good grandchildren.

Beaming with smiles from one ear to another, the actress eagerly said amen in the short video.

The actress is currently on vacation and it seems she is spending a lot of time with the musician.

When Saturday Beats reached the actress camp to confirm if the pair were an item, her publicist, Biodun Kupoluyi, said that Funke and JJC had been friends for a long time and they still maintained that friendship.

“Two of them have been friends for a long time and they still remain close friends. They have been helping each other’s career for a while,” he said.

“Most Nigerian Pastors Are Fake, Not Called By God” – Oritsejafor

oritsejafor-koko-junction-delta-state

A former National President of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, says most people who claim to be pastors or men of God are not, as they were not called by God in the first place.

Oritsejafor expressed displeasure over how ‘these men of God’ have now turned the church into a business centre and living flamboyant lives, stating that the development was the reason kidnappers now see the church as a place to make money.

In a recent chat with the Punch, the outgoing President of the Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, said, “The problem we have in the church is that a lot of these pastors are not men of God as they were not called.

“They are mercenaries, commercially minded people. The duty of the church is to preach morality not materialism and because Nigerians are very gullible; they are easy victims of deceit. They fall prey to some of these pastors or prophets of doom. The way they live gives a wrong impression of what should be in a church of God. There should be no room for material possessions.

“I am not saying a man of God should not live a life of comfort but it should be a life of good comfort; that is why kidnapping is now a common thing even in the church.

“It is unfortunate that we are having this kind of problem because most places of religious gathering, particularly of the Christian faith, are seemingly reducing their faith to commercials. So many people think they have money and most of them live a flamboyant lifestyle.

“As such, the kidnappers mistake them for money men but there is nothing there. The kidnappers would be kept at bay if they stopped preaching prosperity and allowing dirty money to go into the church coffers. I also think the church is losing its moral values. The values are disappearing gradually.

“We should preach values and not materialism. I think the churches themselves should look inwards and correct the poor impression they are giving people outside that there is money in the church, whereas there is none,” he stated.

On his opinion on the Kaduna State bill against public preaching, Oritsejafor said Governor Nasir el-Rufai had seemingly taken the wrong step.

Oristejafor said, “He should call a meeting of all the stakeholders in that state with respect to religious activities before rushing to the state Assembly for any bill. Be that as it may, we have to be very careful if there is any bill intended to wear religious colouration.

“When Sharia was introduced into this country we were lucky to have a Christian President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, who tamed it. Nigeria would have been engulfed by the conflagration. Sharia would have been misunderstood.

“There are already enough laws in the statue book that take care of what Governor El-Rufai has in mind. I have no objection if he wants to curb noise pollution in the name of religion. I quite agree if this is the basis. But in a situation where it is meant to tackle extremism, libel, sedition, incitement and more, there are enough laws in our statute book for this. Doing otherwise is not good for him.

“I have tremendous respect for him for he was the person bold enough to say that there should be no more street begging. Yes, that was a sensible thing because even in the Islamic countries such is not allowed,” the pastor stated.

‘You Can’t Take Nigeria Out of Me’-Actress Uzo Aduba

‘You Can’t Take Nigeria Out of Me’-Actress Uzo Aduba

Actress Uzo Aduba may be headlining the crop of Hollywood artistes dominating TV, but the multi-award winning actress has refused to forget her roots. Yesterday, the OITNB star shared a photo of jollof rice, fried plantains, among other foods, and she chose that occasion to remind her American fans where she comes from.

“You can take the girl out of Nigeria, but you can’t take the Nigeria out of the girl,” the actress captioned the photo, adding, “#igbokwenu#naijagirl #yummy”

This post has gotten over 18,000 likes with many of her fans interested in learning about Nigerian cuisines. And this is not the first time Aduba would be talking about her Nigerian heritage.

In her previous interview with Uptown, Aduba explained the meaning of her name to international fans. “Uzoamaka means ‘The road is good’,” she said. “Quick lesson: My tribe is Igbo, and you name your kid something that tells your history and hopefully predicts your future.” And then she explained that her motivations are her Nigerian parents who encouraged her to put in the best in what she does.

“My parents were less interested in what the pursuit was, so long as you pursued it with excellence. That is really the Nigerian mentality: putting your best self into it. It’s not about being number one, but no Nigerian parent will ever complain about that! My mom always said ‘I have never heard of nothing coming from hard work. I don’t know when it will come, but it will come,” she said.

Sources connected to the case tell us Meek got an order of clarification 2 weeks after his sentencing. The judge had said he could not record ANY music during his 90 days of house arrest, but then spelled it out in more detail.

We’re told the rule is Meek can release music in order to “protect his brand,” but it has to be on FREE platforms like SoundCloud and YouTube.

But how are fans reacting to that news? To many of them, they feel the judge is creating laws just to ruin his career as his parole violation had nothing to do with music, and so why should he be restricted?

Khloé K Still Feels Betrayed by Brother Rob and ‘Plans on Ignoring’ His Engagement to Blac Chyna

Khloé K Still Feels Betrayed by Brother Rob and ‘Plans on Ignoring’ His Engagement to Blac Chyna

According to the report, Khloe Kardashian isn’t happy about her brother Rob Kardashian’s engagement to family nemesis Blac Chyna and she doesn’t have a problem making it known. In fact, she doesn’t even plan on acknowledging their engagement.

via People:

“Ever since Khloé found out that Rob is dating Blac Chyna, she felt betrayed,” the source says. “This feeling has never changed. After finding out about the engagement, she is furious at the lack of respect.”

Rob, 29, proposed to Blac Chyna, 27, on Monday – with the news taking the family by surprise, says the source.

“She can’t believe Rob didn’t tell the family in advance. She thinks Rob is causing drama on purpose and wants them [his family] to be arguing,” says the source.

So far, Rob’s sisters and mother Kris Jenner have remained silent concerning the engagement.

“Khloé plans on ignoring the news. She is not going to send Rob any well wishes. She is not happy about the engagement, and is not going to pretend that she is,” the source adds.

A source previously told PEOPLE the Kardashian-Jenner clan was concerned about Rob’s relationship with Blac Chyna.

“There has been a fear that Blac Chyna is manipulating the situation with Rob,” said the source. “That he is getting himself into a situation that is not ideal for him. Blac Chyna has been great as kind of a rebound. As someone that got Rob out of a dark place, that helped him get motivated and healthy again. Let’s just be honest, no one is really hoping for a marriage to happen.”

Khloe’s always been the sister to support and defend Rob in the media and at home — after all, he’s been living with her for the last few years.

“Rob is such a great guy,” Khloé, 31, told PEOPLE in October, before the relationship with Blac Chyna. “He’s charming, charismatic, everything. That’s what’s so infuriating. I’m like, ‘Where is your will to live life? Let’s be around people!’ ”

For her part, Blac Chyna has a complicated history with the Kardashian-Jenner family, sharing a child with Tyga, who is dating Rob’s sister Kylie Jenner. Blac Chyna is also best friends with Amber Rose, the ex of Rob sister’s Kim Kardashian West’s husband Kanye West.

Blac Chyna’s rep previously dismissed the idea there was “any tension” with the Kardashian-Jenner family.

“I think everyone’s happy about it,” the rep told PEOPLE of the engagement. “I would imagine people would be happy for their family when they find the love of their life.”

Dencia Slams ‘Black’ Americans/Media, Says they are Ignorant!

Dencia Slams ‘Black’ Americans/Media, Says they are Ignorant!

Yesterday, Dencia finally added voice to the raging conversation about the controversial Gap Kids ad which shows a white girl using a black child as arm rest, a photoshoot critics described as insensitive and racist. Gap was forced to apologise and take down the ad,

But yesterday, an old ad from same clothing store surfaced on social media which shows a black child using a white girl as arm rest; the ad was from last year and didn’t cause any stir.

Dencia Slams ‘Black’ Americans/Media, Says they are Ignorant!

Now, the ad is raising a few eyebrows, especially from people who are now criticising African Americans of complaining too much about racism. One of those people is the US-based singer Dencia who took to Instagram to describe them as ignorant people who don’t do research but are quick to jump into a fight.

Read her post:

It’s weird how the black media in America works.They always do all the can to make black people go ham on dumb shit,they encourage people to go start fights & some even die.I see celebrities telling their fans to go protest while they seat in the comfort of their homes.

I wish people will start thinking for themselves.The Ad below with the white girl resting on the black girl caused so much racial drama on social media like people were talking about boycotting the company, protesting (that’s all they do start stupid protest that never leads to anywhere) meanwhile the top picture is an ad from same company that this same media never showed u guys or even came back and said oh never mind that company had something similar before we apologize,so it was racist because a white girl was using a black girl to rest her arm but the other way around wasn’t huh?

Racism does exist but can we really pick what is really racist and stop making everything about race? It’s so bad that normal things nowadays people will scream racism so when real racism happens no one takes it seriously.

People need to do more research before reacting FR.Racism is real so is tribalism and these kids are just shooting a fun innocent campaign. Chill humans chill. #BlackMedia #racism#Race #colorism #protest#AngryHumans #ChillGuysChill
