A Nigerian woman, Deborah Ocheido, has taken to Twitter to proudly declare that she is a virgin.
Deborah, a graduate of Benue State University, made this revelation in response to a curious follower who asked about her virginity status.
The follower had inquired to know if Deborah is actually a virgin considering her advocacy for sexual purity, or if she had been intimate with a man before turning a new leaf.
“Please, be honest, are you a virgin?? I always think those who amplify sexual purity might have had their own dose in the past. I would honestly love to know why you talk about sexual purity,”the follower asked.
In response, the educationist revealed that she is still sexually pure and has not known any man. She also attributed her chastity to the help of God.
She wrote on Twitter,
“Lol, this question again. I talk about it because sexual depravity is a tool the devil is wielding so much. Plus God has been helping me to stay pure and chaste and I tell others that’s it’s very possible. Oh and Yes. Proudly yes!”

The Osun State Command of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has detained a 25-year-old man, Ayanrinde Abdulgafar, who had been impersonating a lawyer and defrauding the public.
The state Commandant, Agboola Sunday, parading the suspect at the Command’s headquarters in Oke Ayepe, Osogbo, on Saturday, May 27, 2023, claimed that Ayarinde had allegedly defrauded POS agents inside court buildings in various states while always dressing in official attire.

He said that the suspect was detained on May 25, 2023, in Ilorin, Kwara State, by the Command crack team working with the Kwara State NSCDC command.
“The suspect presented himself as a Barrister of law to one driver on the 23rd May, 2023 whose service he requested to drive him first to State High Court Osogbo before heading to Federal High Court, Akure.
The suspect in his full regalia entered the court, exchange pleasantries with lawyers and thereafter approached a POS woman around the court premises and collected the sum of One hundred and fifty thousand naira with the aim to do the transfer.
He had collected the phone of the driver to share his internet facility to help him transfer the money. He entered the court premises and disappeared into the thin air, only to be tracked to Ilorin, Kwara State.
The suspected fake lawyer defrauded another driver who took him to Ilorin to the sum of N100,000, after which he was arrested,” the commander added.
Speaking with newsmen, the suspect claimed he is a University of Ibadan Law Faculty dropout.
Ayanrinde said he started duping people early this year, adding that he had collected over N200,000 from his victims.
When asked what led him to the act, Ayanrinde said he did it to get back at his father who abandoned him since childhood.
“I dropped out of the University of Ibadan (UI) from the law department in 2022 when I could no longer pay school fees.
I decided to start practising as a fake lawyer to swindle people in courts because my father who is a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) decided to neglect myself and my mother after he impregnated her.
I do this crime to spite him. I regret my action, my father is the one that destroys my life. He denied me as his son and never took responsibility for me,” he said.

And to be honest, if there’s a pit of eternal damnation that I am going to, I’d rather go there than be stuck with Christians in heaven.
Christians are the meanest people I have met in my life. They come to my DM every day to tell me that I am going to hell. That is not what Jesus preached,” she said.

“As a teenager, my career in the mainstream entertainment industry started in a place that many people who have put in years of hard work could only dream of. How could a neophyte start from the mainstream if not for a miracle?
In my case, the mercy of God and unmerited favor was evident. I broke into the industry by playing a friend and co-lead with a screen goddess who had put in decades of hard work and unprecedented creativity, even at that time.
God used Aunty Funke Akindele @funkejenifaakindele to put me into the limelight. It was a shocker for me, especially at that tender age when I had barely left secondary school. The kind of fame I earned from playing Toyosi in Jenifa’s Diary was too enormous for my understanding.
However, the lack of industry know-how started manifesting in me, coupled with the fact that I had a guardian (manager) who didn’t understand how the entertainment industry works, and I believed anything he felt and said.
My guardian sent an email to Scene One TV, the producers of the sitcom, the entire content of which I wasn’t aware of until recently.
The story of my goofs at the start of my career cannot be exhausted in a million words. I want to use this opportunity to apologize to Aunty Funke Akindele. Ọmọdé ò lè mọ ẹ̀kọ́ jẹ, kó má ra lọ́wọ́. I am incredibly sorry for how I hurt you and how the email that was sent hurt you.
Please forgive me for my childish mistakes of the past. I am deeply sorry for everything.
I love you eternally, Aunty Funke.
NB: I just feel the burden to make this official. It’s not an attempt for people to help me beg her. I have met Aunty Funke; she has forgiven me. She hugged me, prayed for me, cooked for me like she used to in those good old days. Jollof rice elemi meji, fried rice, and sweet chicken. (lol)
I am her baby forever. She is such a sweet soul. The good days are back, and you should probably anticipate. I love you all. Thank you. ”, she wrote.
Reacting, Funke Akindele, via the comment section of Juliana’s post, expressed her love for her and noted that she missed her.
“My Juliana. I miss you. I will bite you. omo mi. I love you. See you soon.” Funke wrote.

Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has explained why he will never refer to President-elect, Bola Tinubu as his President.
Pastor Bakare remarked that the 2023 election was full of fraud and inadequate standards when speaking during a webinar on Saturday, May 27.
Additionally, he said that the Independent National Electoral Commission messed up the election campaign, and that Nigeria is now going away from someone who upholds integrity and is impervious to corruption toward someone who does not.
Bakare said;
“Last Wednesday, I was at the Glass House where he (Buhari) has been restricted now because the main house is being renovated. I said I have done that for you. I want you to know that, because of the circumstances of your flying into power on the wings of integrity and incorruptibility, but you’re now passing onto someone who does not have that value.
At any public lecture anywhere, before this mess is cleared off, I will address Asiwaju (Tinubu) as a President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria but I will never call him my president.
I participated in the primary, and there were hundreds (of persons) who participated only by stepping down, so there is no shame in what we have done. We spoke truth to power.
I wasn’t there when they voted, I wasn’t there when they scored (me) zero, but we won that badge of zero and badge of honour.”
Speaking on if he would accept a nomination to become a Minister, Bakare said;
“I am not desperate to be a minister, not at all. I was offered before but I turned it down. My life is not just to take photographs with the president and shake hands. But we will do if it will benefit even one citizen.”
Popular Yoruba movie star, Bimbo Success, has stated that insufficient training is to blame for actors’ lack of flexibility in the industry.
Speaking in an interview with The Punch, she claimed that some actresses believe that having money is all they need to produce a successful film.
Bimbo said that the wealthy actresses who make movies without formal training are to blame for the industry’s loss of substance.
She said;
“It is lack of training (that makes actors not to be flexible in interpreting their roles). There are some people in the industry who do not go for training. There are some ladies, who shot movies just because they had money. They would go behind closed doors to do the movie without prior training. Once they have money, they produce films, even without knowing the job.”
Speaking on how far she had come in the industry, Success said;
“I have achieved a lot in the movie industry. Some people appreciate me. I got married when I was in the industry and I know many people in the industry. My husband, Saheed Oscar, is a director in the industry.”
The graduate of Mass Communication, Olabisi Onabanjo University, also stated that the course had impacted her career.
In her words;
“It is good to be educated. It tells a lot on one’s career. Some people are surprised that I went to school. After I completed my youth service in Bayelsa State, I posted my certificate and my uniform on social media. When people watch my movies, they would think that I did not attend school,” she added.
Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, has opined that she found it strange when strangers came to her social media DMs to ask her to use her connections to help them get a job.
In a post shared on her Instagram page, the mum of one noted that helping a stranger who she did not know was risky for her if the situation turned sour.
According to her, if the stranger committed a crime at the new job, she would be the one responsible for it because she was helping the person.
She wrote;
“I still don’t understand this concept.. Maybe I am over thinking this or I am not thinking rationally.
BUT how can a total stranger Dm you to help them look for a job, now first it’s ok if I know you to an extend. But a total stranger asking me to use my connections to get you a job, I don’t know your background.. you may go and commit a crime(you cld steal,k&ll,Dupe,plan a k&dnap and the list goes on.)
Who do you think they will HOLD? #My darlingz e get where begging suppose stop and this is on Dawg!!!
And to think some women will be begging to look for job for their husbands a few mins after you have sent me a picture of your bartered face. W00000000H JESUS take the wheels”
Her opinion raised arguments with her followers who opined that it was better to beg for a source of income than money.
Reacting to this, the actress stressed that it was important to ask for a job from people who could hold them accountable and not just random strangers.
Media personality Yeni Kuti, has revealed that the late Afrobeats superstar, Fela Kuti was not a good father.
She stated this while being interviewed by media personality, Chude Jideonwo, but added that he was an icon and a role model.
Yeni said that while Fela and his first son, Femi Kuti, were always at odds, she never addressed him about not being a good father.
She said;
“He [Fela] was not quite a good father. No [I never told him that he isn’t a good father]. Maybe Femi, not me. Femi and Fela used to have battles. And Femi will give it to him straight.
Shola and I, we were like timid. You know, they said, ‘When two elephants are fighting, the grass will keep quiet.
I can remember one day, Fela just came and said, ‘three of you are useless children’. Femi just said, ‘for what?’ Femi just started facing him and then they started facing each other. Shola and I will say, ‘it’s okay’. Fela will say, ‘No’. And Femi just said, ‘let him go’.
I don’t think I have ever had that kind of confrontation with my father. Maybe because I was a woman.”
Media personality and elder sister of Nigerian singer Femi Kuti, Yeni Kuti, has revealed why the singer’s ex-wife, Funke, left him.
Speaking in a recent chat with media personality Chude Jideonwo, Yeni revealed Funke walked out of the marriage due to a “communication breakdown.”
She noted that Funke regretted her decision, as she later admitted that if she had known what she knows now, she probably wouldn’t have divorced the singer.
“I think the divorce between Femi and Funke was a result of a communication breakdown. Even now, Funke says that if she had known then what she knows now, she probably wouldn’t have left the marriage. So, I believe it was a communication breakdown.”
“You know, our people can be quite malicious. If they see something good, their focus becomes how to bring it down. Many people have been advising her. Just like me, people say, ‘Why are you still dancing for your brother? Go and form your own band.’ Which band do I want to form? Did I ever come to you saying I want to form a band?” Yeni said.
She said that is her personal choice and she shouldn’t be judged for choosing to stay with an unfaithful man.
Speaking further, Yeni said her father, late legendary Afrobeat singer Fela Aníkúlápó Kuti, had 27 wives and her mother did not divorce him, therefore she also can’t leave her partner because of another woman.

The First lady of Anambra, Dr. Nonye Soludo has blamed parental neglect and family carelessness for the increasing prevalence of social illnesses and vices.
The governor’s wife, who made the assertion on Friday, May 26, in Awka to commemorate the 2023 International Day of Families, organized by the Anambra State Ministry of Health in collaboration with the State Ministry of Women and Social Welfare, advised against having children if people lacked the capacity to train them.
In her words;
“There are lots of vices in our society today because the family foundation is faulty. Parents are too busy to prioritize the upbringing of their children.
Due to lack of parental care, children engage in robbery, cultism, drug addiction, exam fraud, hooliganism, thuggery, gambling, smoking, rape and other crimes.
We need to put our families first and prioritize the upbringing of our children. Family is everything and the betterment of society starts with the family”
She expressed displeasure over parents who give out their children as house helps and guardians who also maltreat or abuse children.
“It is sad that parents shy away from their responsibilities and give out their children to strangers who maltreat and abuse these children. If you are not ready to train children, do not have any or you give birth to the number of children you can cater for and bring them up to be responsible men and women in the society. I also urge our women to stop maltreating and abusing their house helps. Show them love and treat them like your own children,” she said.
