A woman in Kenya in on the run for allegedly burning her 14 year old daughter for wasting maize Flour, News24 Reports.
The woman, simply identified as Pelesia Saoke from Furfal village is said to have tied the victim’s hands, flogged her and then poured about a litre of kerosene on her before setting her on fire.
Likuyani OCPD Meshack Kiptum (Pictured above) confirmed the incident and said the victim was rescued by neighbors who responded in time and saved her before informing the police who took her to Kitale Hospital.
“The-14-year old girl is undergoing treatment as her private parts were burnt and she needs counselling. The mother has gone into hiding but police are surveying the area and she will be arrested soon with cooperation from the public,” Kiptum said.
The officer urged parents to avoid imposing such inhumane punishment on their children but look for other means of punishment.
The victim’s brother, Bonventure Okoth said her mother came back home around 6 pm in the evening and found her elder sister frying the maize flour when she burnt her.
“My mother tied my elder sister’s hands, beat her before she soaked her with paraffin and burnt her before she went into hiding. She said she was punishing my sister for misusing flour,” Okoth said.
Neighbours say this is not the first incidence as the woman is fond of beating up her children and threaten to set them ablaze.
“Multi-talented Nigerian new school rapper, Ink Edwards has unleashed the upgraded version of his previously collaborated single, ‘Baddest’ with Chocolate City’s president, M.I Abaga.
‘Baddest 2.0’ re-features one of the finest rappers in Africa, M.I Abaga who innovatively dazzled on the song alongside Fuji musician cum relevant and highly sort-after hip-hop artiste, Pasuma Wonder and the ‘Ello Bae’ crooner, Falz.
Pasuma comes out productively on ‘Baddest 2.0’; he sustained the song by infusing the fuji rhythm, hip-hop barz to his melodious voice to make ‘Baddest 2.0’ more pleasing to the ear. ‘Baddest’ was fully upgraded to 2.0 when comic rapper, Falz took over with his enthusiastic raps, touching the song from the proper angles, shaping his voice and raps to fit with the melodious beat produced by Galactic Beats. Falz did justice to ‘Baddest 2.0’ when he expressed his state of surprise towards the end of this potential hit single.
Ink Edwards had earlier established himself as a consistent rapper with the release of ‘The Chairman Medley’ and ‘Our Little Song’ which were released at an interval of two weeks, Ink Edwards successfully came through with ‘Baddest 2.0’ three weeks after the release of the aforementioned tracks.
Without doubt, Ink Edwards is consistent, intelligent and obviously a new school rapper to be taken seriously. Here is ‘Baddest 2.0’, mixed and mastered by arguably the best sound engineer in Nigeria, Suka Sounds.”
Truth be told, Celebrities get tons of hate mails/message and comments on a daily basis.
Apparently, it take one hurtful comment to touch a nerve that elicits a response from a celebrity.
It’s no different for Nollywood Actress, Ini Edo, as she yesterday on instagram posted a picture of herself in a lounge which is rumored to be hers.
She captioned the photo:
Yesterday……#mimzcountdown
A fan or probably an enemy of the actress left a rather harsh comment on the picture, she said:
Lounge Owner! Only irresponsible female run such business. Go trace ur steps or you will continue failing in all marriages u get into.. Menopause is now 40… Just saying
The comment of Sarah got to Ini Edo as she was ready for her and left a response:
@sarahofulayi one can’t help but feel sorry for you. Untill your opinion can pay bills, stuff it. Sad woman….
Awwn. The ace comedian actually stayed up late to wish his beau a happy birthday.
Veteran comedian, Bovi Ugboma, few minutes ago took to his Instagram to wish his stunning wife, Kris Ugboma a happy birthday. He shared gorgeous photos of his baby mama with beautiful captions:
He wrote:
Happy birthday to my girlfriend and lover. @krisasimonye . ??♥️♥️♥️♥️??????????
More happy birthday to the hairess, the wigress and the braidress!!!! ????. @krisasimonye my Queen
The stunning birthday woman has two kids for Bovi.
“You can’t eat beauty, it doesn’t sustain you. What is fundamentally beautiful is compassion, for yourself and those around you. That kind of beauty enflames the heart and enchants the soul”
This is to me, is the best quote ever made by this absolutely stunning actress, Lupita Nyong’O.
The gorgeous ebony who made a breakthrough in her movie career after her role in the movie, “12 years a slave”, is on the cover of Vogue magazine for the 2nd time.
Her beauty is undeniable, i guess that’s why one of our authors can’t and won’t stop drooling over her! She’s a stunner.
A alleged cheating wife reportedly dumped her new born baby on a doorstep after keeping her entire pregnancy secret from her husband.
36 Year old Leigh-Anne Varley, told unsuspecting hubby Simon, 39, and their two children – aged 16 and six – she had ovarian cysts which caused ‘swelling’.
In reality, she was pregnant by a lover and hid his baby boy, named ‘Jack’, right up to the birth. For nine months, she meticulously planned a home delivery, got scissors and towels ready, and worked out where to abandon the baby near her home in Horden, County Durham.
As she went into labour, she did some housework, put her six-year-old to bed then delivered in the bathroom, with her teenage daughter on a night out with friends, and Simon working night-shift.
Sneaking out of the neat modern terrace at the dead of night, she returned within minutes, later booking a ‘dream’ trip to Disney World in Florida for her family, then going to work.
Wrapping the tiny newborn in a dressing gown, she placed him on the doorstep of a flat close to a medical centre, with a note saying:
“Please take care of my baby boy. Please don’t go public as my husband is violent and will kill me.”
She also knocked on a door in a bid to alert a nearby neighbour.The child was found cold, but otherwise unharmed between four and five hours later by a man walking his dog.
The mum-of-three admitted abandoning a child. She said she had an affair and she believed the baby was the result of that affair.
“She was unable to tell her husband because she was fearful of breaking up the family unit.
“This is a very sad case, she is of previous good character and was in a desperate situation which led to the offence occurring.”
Some major throwback though… These dudes back in the day made the P-Square group have a run for their money as they were one of the hottest duos running the game back then.
Five Star music singer, Kcee shared this major throwback photo of himself with his former music partner trying to inspire his followers.
So here’s my tiny little secret; of all the Kardashian/Jenner clan, my favorite is Kendall Jenner. She’s hardly been affiliated with any scandal or questionable acts rather she’s been acknowledged and recognized as an achiever in her field.
She once said though, that she doesn’t want her success to be based on the fact that she is from a very popular family and all. I like her humility and her body of course! Lol.
The super model has been listed among the Forbes Highest Paid models in 2015. Though she’s placed at No 8 on the list, it’s quite an achievement for her cause she’s still at a very young age and is just starting her model career, not like the top on the list, Gisele Bundchen who has been in the business for decades.
These photos of foreign Hip-Hop couple, Meek Mill and Nicki Minaj has got their fans laughing hard as they captioned the photo hilariously.
They said that Meek Mill looks like a child whose mum (Nicki Minaj) just took shopping and he is all excited about what he has just gotten. Lol. It’s actually true though, he’s so excited in all of the photos.
Wonder what’s amusing him though.
The photos were taken when the couple went shopping in Beverly Hills.
You don’t get to see this too often with the super model though. Kim Kardashian, her husband, Kanye West and their adorable daughter who is referred to as the current most fashionable baby, North West were spotted at the New York City Airport as they were set to leave the city after Kanye had his Yeezy Season 2 Fashion Week.
What’s stunning in the images is Kim Kardashian is pictured without make-up… which is something we all know to be unusual. While she went make-up free, her daughter, North West is seen rocking an adorable curly hair.
They look like a normal family though. Oh! And the lady by Kim helping with North’s stuffs, that’s North’s nanny.
Mr. Badejo Adeyinka, a 35-year-old father of two, allegedly hung himself on Tuesday, at his residence in Kubwa, a satellite town in Bwari Area Council of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
It was gathered that until he committed suicide, the deceased was a shop owner at the Kubwa Village Market that deals in Okirika, second-hand clothes.
City News learnt that Badejo borrowed the sum of N150,000 from a microfinance bank in Kubwa, but his younger brother, Emmanuel Adeyinka had assisted in paying part of the borrowed money, leaving him with just N25,000 to complete the payment.
Emmanuel said things were not going well for his elder brother and was certain the debt was responsible for the brother committing suicide.
“We were very close siblings. He once jokingly told me that he would hang himself because of the pressure he was getting from the bank to return the borrowed money.
“But I always told him everything would be okay. I never knew he meant his words. Maybe if I had known, I would have tried to stop him. I pray his soul rests in peace,”
he added.
The deceased wife, Mrs. Grace Adeyinka said she noticed her husband’s body dangling inside their sitting room when she went to use the toilet in the morning and quickly brought him down and quickly rushed him to the emergency unit of the Kubwa General Hospital where he was declared dead.
“I woke up around 5a.m. to use the toilet and found out that the cloth I used to cover our five- year-old child was missing, and my husband too was not by my side. When I went to the living room, I discovered that it was the cloth he used to hang himself,”
she said amidst tears.
When contacted, the head of accident and emergency unit of the hospital, Paul Olise, confirmed the incident adding that his remains have since been taken to the morgue.
Janet Jackson, American music icon and sister to legendary Pop artiste, Michael Jackson in July was reported to be quitting the entertainment industry because of her new religion, ‘Islam.’
The American singer, who is married to Quatari Muslim Billionaire Wissam Al Mana, disclosed that she almost committed suicide because of the restrictions and burden her new life and religion brought upon her, saying it was not an easy transformation.
According to MTV News, she revealed that she has been deprived of almost everything in life, as she cannot listen to music, drive a car, wear designer clothes only the “Black Abaya” and cannot even move outside her residential home, in Doha as she is always surrounded by heavily armed security men.
Janet further added that, her new song feat J.Cole “No Sleep” says it all from her marriage, to the difficulties involved in adapting to her new life, the stress involved in being a Muslim wife and the regrets she had due to the choices she made.
We just keep falling in love with this couple as their marriage stays strong by the day. Their union is one like no other and they can absolutely be referred to as the Industry’s sweethearts.
Annie Idibia shared this loved up photo of herself with her husband of decades and more to come, 2Face Idibia.
For most people, it takes a while to adjust and get used to a new home after moving in, while it takes some few days/weeks.
But for President Muhammadu Buhari, it looks like it might take a while.
Despite the couple of months he has spent in Aso Villa, Buhari says he sometimes gets lost in his new home.
According to PM News, he revealed this during an interview in Paris.
“…the last time I was there [Aso Villa], I was in the barracks. This time I am in a palace. At times, I can’t find my way around. It is so big so much that it must be expensive to maintain. But it is there, it cannot be removed,” he said.
She definitely has his looks though. The pop singer sure can’t get enough of his few months daughter Royalty, as over the past few days, he’s been all about her.
Her spending much time with him and his mom and all. The singer shared this grid photo of himself and his daughter proving that the both of them are twins.
An alleged fake pastor has been apprehended after he allegedly robbed a widow at her husband’s burial in Akwa Ibom. The pastor, who hails from Akwa Ibom State admitted to have stopped by a burial that he was not invited to at Itung Mbang, Uruan Local Government Area, where he monitored the widow who was receiving gifts from sympathisers.
He confessed that he waited and stole a bag containing the over N600, 000, two cell phones belonging to the widow and her late husband, a cheque book with an ATM pin written at the edge of the cover, an ATM card and a briefcase containing the late husband’s documents, which was handed over to the woman’s son for safe keeping.
Daily Independent tells the story: They reveal that after stealing the bag, the pastor, immediately used the stolen cash to acquire a land in Uyo, emptied his victim’s account with the ATM card and pin number, handed over his victim’s late husband’s phone to his wife, while he made use of the widow’s phone.
The culprit was reportedly tracked down by the Department of State Services (DSS) through the stolen phones and was arrested while conducting a church session at his City of Reality Christian Centre, Ediene Ikot Obio Imo in Uyo.
Etim who admitted to his crime during the interrogation said he was into photo and video media before he received his calling. He blamed the devil for his crime and promised to hand over the land acquired to the widow.
“Please don’t send me to jail. The devil is trying to rubbish my ministry. Please do not involve my wife in this, she is innocent, I did not tell her where I got the phone from. I don’t want our child to grow up without a father, please have mercy upon me”. He pleaded.
Former President Jonathan Showing Buhari His Way Around The Aso Villa
Head of States,President Muhammed Buhari stunned his audience in France when he revealed that he sometimes misses his way in the Presidential Aso Villa.
PM News revealed that when Buhari was asked by one of the interviewers on France 24, whether Aso Rock was like the Government house he left in 1985.
It was not the same place. The last time I was there, I was in the barracks. This time I am in a palace. At times, I can’t find my way around. It is so big so much that it must be expensive to maintain. But it is there, it cannot be removed.”
Asked whether he is now a different man, he answered:
“I don’t think basically, I am a different man. I came back to power under a different system.”
Buhari moved into the Villa on 21 June, more than three weeks after he was sworn-in.His predecessor, Goodluck Jonathan, had approved some renovation work on the Villa, which stretched far beyond his tenure.
She has one of the most hottest bodies in the Nollywood movie industry, not only her body but also her face! Nollywood actress, Oge Okoye slays in this new photo of hers.
It’s no doubt that the actress, is looking like a professional model. You can tell that if she weren’t into acting, she’d have become a highly placed model in the fashion industry.
Omotola also talked about some personal things about her family and marriage. Not forgetting the part where she revealed to us her Favorite kisser in the Movie scene.
Here’s the time stamp of the interview.
Read excerpts below:
On facing temptations:
You mean like ‘This dude is not bad?’, yes I have. I am human. But you have to think of the odds…you’re like ‘What do you stand to lose?’ I think of the things I really would lose and I just feel it’s not worth it.
On making her marriage work while in the movie industry:
For me I will say, first and foremost I think my faith has been very good and has been very helpful in my relationship because my husband and I have the same belief system. So we understand that we’re human. I know he can’t tell me he hasn’t seen girls that he likes. I’m not the most beautiful – even if I’m the most beautiful person in the world – you will still see one or two persons in life that would just tickle your fancy. It’s human, it’s a human thing.
On not getting enough international movie roles:
I have gotten a few calls and it’s been a very difficult decision to make in my career. I keep hearing this all the time and it’s almost like the elephant in the room. So twice I’ve had the opportunity to relocate and I’ll say the reason why I haven’t relocated is because it would break my family. My husband doesn’t want to relocate; he doesn’t want to live abroad. He doesn’t like to live abroad. It will be very difficult for him to get a good job abroad because there are so many good pilots in America. So it would mean me moving and him staying here and that was a very big reason.
On her endorsements:
I got a lot of endorsements last year. Like Knorr. My daughter actually made 2.4 million on that endorsement.
This is most likely something that happens seldom with the Kardashian clan. Mother and genesis of very popular celebrities making rounds on Social Media and the internet, Kris Jenner, has just revealed that she was upset when she got news that her daughter, Kylie Jenner had done a surgery to get lips size bigger.
Speaking to Access Hollywood, the 59 year old revealed that the 18 year old went beneath the needles behind her back.
‘I got really upset, and then it was done, and I had to let it go.’ Once that was done, it’s just my kid. I love my kid. We make mistakes.’
Kris hinted that at times it’s been difficult to parent Kylie, she said:
‘I get a little crazy – and I think that is what no one sees – and I do have definite thoughts and ideas or [ideas on] what she should do, you know, at a really young age,’
Kris also insists she didn’t begin having work done on herself until the last 10 years.
‘I am from the generation that in my day, I mean, some of this stuff did not exist for sure but, I don’t think I did one thing physically to myself until I was in my 50’s. A good 50 years old. So I am thinking…why, why? Why do you need to do that? ‘
I quite agree with the RnB singer though. Barbarian sultry RnB singer, Rihanna has just revealed yet again that she isn’t seen as a role model unlike her counterpart, Taylor Swift, who she says is.
The “FourFiveSeconds” singer revealed when on an interview with NME magazine, that she can’t join the country turned pop singer on tour because, apparently, their fans varies. She said she “just don’t think it makes sense”

‘I don’t think I would. I just don’t think it makes sense. ‘I don’t think our brands are the same: I don’t think they match, I don’t think our audiences are the same. In my mind she’s(Taylor) a role model, I’m not.
Mzwanele Kompolo, a South African fighter has died after he was knocked out in the first round of a fight in Frere.
Kompolo collapsed in the ring after being beaten by Siphenathi Qampi in the Eastern Cape and went into a coma.
Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula said: “It is indeed sad to hear of this news involving the passing of this young upcoming athlete.”

Another boxer, Australian David Browne died on Tuesday after being knocked unconscious in a fight.
This brings to the fore concerns about the safety of the sport with boxers dying or battling with various illnesses later in life, and it is expected that a review of the boxing articles shouldn’t be far away.
So, a Channels TV cameraman captured a major blooper fail on live television involving their news anchor.

President Muhammadu Buhari is reportedly uncomfortable with having the Aso Rock Chapel close to his room window and is planning to relocate it.
According to Daily Times, the president is not comfortable with the noise that originates from the chapel when worship is going on.
The Chapel was built by former president, Olusegun Obasanjo who is said to have strategically located the chapel so he can “enjoy worship and prayers from the comfort of his bedroom”.
President Buhari is a Muslim and has reportedly complained about the noise from the chapel. Some aides of the president had already made efforts to stop the use of the facility by Christian worshippers on August 30.
As a prelude, security agents prevented the Villa Chapel choristers from entering the building for their weekly rehearsal on Saturday, August 29, 2015.
However, uproar over the development ensued, which caused Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, a Christian who also worships at the chapel, to contact Buhari before the security men gave way for service to be conducted that day.
In a move that suggests the Presidency is not giving up in its bid to relocate the chapel, the children’s church section of the chapel has been shut and some rooms have been converted to shops for storing food items.
“We had to beg them to allow us to remove our property,” said an official of the church who did not want to be named. “The children’s church has been turned into a store.
Ahmed Mohamed, 14 is an innovative and creative young lad as he crafted a homemade clock and excitedly brought it to his school in Texas to show his engineering teacher.
Unfortunately for him, his teachers at MacArthur High School did not buy into his invention as the school officials alerted police because they thought the device was a “Hoax Bomb” after it made a beep noise.
When the clock was discovered, he was removed from his class, interviewed by teachers and then placed in juvenile detention. The Police was also called to intervene.
When the Men in Black arrived, they immediately arrested 14 year old Ahmed while handcuffs were placed on him and fingerprinted.
His arrest has been criticized by people all around the world using the Hashtag – #IstandwithAhmed
During a press conference, Ahmed explained that he plans to transfer to a new school and tells the story in his own words
“I built a clock to impress my teacher but when I showed it to her she thought it was a threat to her. I’m very sad that she got the wrong impression of it.”
Ahmed’s father who is originally from Sudan had this to say:
“He’s a very smart, brilliant boy and he said he just wanted to show himself to the world.”
Other family members are claiming Ahmed was arrested because of his name. An accusation which has been denied by the Police.
While the story is certainly appalling , there’s a bright side, Ahmed has been invited to the White House by President Obama!
Cool clock, Ahmed. Want to bring it to the White House? We should inspire more kids like you to like science. It's what makes America great.
Actress Doris Simeon sat down with Yes International! Magazine and She’s Discussed her job as an actress and producer + Nollywood in General.
Read the interview below:
Why are many actors and actresses going into producing movies? Is it because they are not getting roles or is producing more rewarding?
Maybe the English actors or actresses are the ones you would say just ventured into producing, because the Yoruba actresses had been producing way back. As practitioners, we criticize some works that we do, so we decided to set an example and show how it is done. That’s it; not getting any role.
Some actress in the industry have NGOs or pet projects as a means of giving back to the society, do you have or intend to have any?
I have a group, I will not call it a foundation and my passion is young widows and street kids who are victims of rape. I have my friends. Sometimes, maybe on my birthday, we try to do something to touch lives. I don’t make noise about it so that tomorrow people will not be like, what happened to that your foundation?
What can you say about the promiscuous impression the society has about actress and female entertainers?
I will say that the impression is wrong and it’s a big lie. But it’s a free world and if you want to, you will. It’s a thing of choice. But that doesn’t mean that the whole women in the industry sleep around, and that’s why they are not getting married.
There are so many people out there who live their lives the way they want. How many do you hear about? But because we are the faces out there, everybody believes that we don’t have a private life anymore and everything that happens in our lives, they have to know about it. As if they knew when you were born. It’s just one of the things we face for being actresses.
An actress told me that actresses don’t make so much money and that contradicts what they depict on the social media. What can you say about that?
I would say maybe because of piracy, that is why she said that. We don’t have a fixed price. When you are contracted for a job, you negotiate, if you agree, you do it. You don’t have people competing in the industry.
