“God created men to cheat” – Singer Samklef (Video)

Popular Nigerian singer, Samuel Oguachuba, professionally known as Samklef, has asserted that it is inherent for men to cheat on their partners.

He made this statement during a recent chat with media personality Daddy Freeze.

According to Samklef, Nigerians tend to be overly emotional when discussing the topic of cheating, emphasizing that it is a common occurrence for men to cheat, including religious leaders.

To support his viewpoint, he referenced biblical figures such as Abraham, David, and Solomon, who were known to have multiple wives.

“Nigerians are too emotional. We react based on emotions. We engage in questionable behavior, but we try to conceal it. Nigerians should stop idealizing the lives of certain individuals. Let people be. Pastors, Imams… Who doesn’t cheat? God created us to cheat,” he said.

In other news, a Nigerian Christian business coach, Nancy Nnadi, has opined that spouses acquiring property without approval from each other equate to unintentionally seeking a divorce.

Sharing on her Instagram page, she stated that couples should not be held to a worldly standard.

According to her, partners should always inform each other whenever they wanted to acquire properties no matter the circumstances.

She wrote;

“If you call yourself partners, then none of you have any justification to do this. Keep yourselves and your marriage out of the worldly standards.”

Dear marriage partners, If you desire assets in your name for whatever reason, please, let your spouse know, and ensure you discuss it with them. I know some difficult spouses may say yes or no, but also check your MOTIVES. The scriptures say: LOVE does not seek its own. (1 Corinthians 13:4).

See, financial dishonesty can ruin a beautiful marriage. This is why my yardstick in appropriating anything in marriage is the Bible because it can never be wrong. And yeah! Regardless of the things happening around these days, the word of God remains supreme.

See how God describes LOVE in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7. Please, study these scriptures. If you have a case special case, I pray that God’s wisdom through His Holy Spirit will direct you, in Jesus’ name. Amen. The Bible says wisdom is profitable to direct.”

In response to the video, some commentators on the Portuguese talk show Noite das Estrelas rebuked Georgina for sitting while Doleres stood.

One of the commentators Maya said, “What strikes me the most is that while Georgina is sitting with the children, Dolores Aveiro remains standing, far away, it doesn’t look pretty to me, this.”

Daniel Nascimento, another commentator, said, “What I’m saying is that it’s not Georgina who has to get up… It was those boys who had to get up.”

However, Maya replied:

“If Georgina was a diligent daughter-in-law, Dolores would be in her rightful place! (…) It is a lack of respect!”

Georgina was also criticized on social media. See below,

It was also alleged that Ronaldo’s mother couldn’t spend much time with her grandson on his 13th birthday because Georgina invited a lot of her friends.

“If I don’t thank God for anything in my life, I thank God for this woman (pointing to his wife). It’s important to have somebody you can talk with, pick the right person and open up about your struggle.

“I mistakenly overcharged a naval officer and he slapped me” – President Tinubu shares his unforgettable experience as a cab driver

President Bola Tinubu has recounted a moment as a young cab driver in the United States that he will never forget.

This came to light as he described his lowly beginnings in a biography that was printed on the back page of a national newspaper where he mentioned how a Navy officer had slapped him for accidentally overcharging him.

Seasoned journalist, Mike Awoyinfa wrote the biography titled, ‘Tinubu: My Life as a Gypsy Cab Driver in the US’.

In the narrative, Tinubu claimed to have driven unlicensed taxis in Chicago, Illinois, picking up passengers from the airport and transporting them to their destinations.

The president stated that the driving job was intended to support him financially while he was attending school.

He narrated;

“We got an unregistered used car commonly called Gypsy, which we ran as a taxi. We operated at the airport where we picked passengers, and not anywhere else, like the hotel because it was forbidden for unlicensed cab drivers to do so.

We did that for a while to raise some money. Bolaji went to Tennessee, while I headed for Chicago.

I was supposed to have started schooling in April. I deferred it till September in order to have more money. Immediately I got to Chicago, I went straight to Richard Daley College. It was very interesting.

I was able to pay for my apartment and tuition fees at Chicago State University. I supplemented that by doing different menial jobs like door guard and security man.

As a cab driver, one experience I will never forget was when I over-charged a naval officer returning to the country. It was not intentional.

Apparently, I didn’t know the direction. There was no GPRS in those days to locate directions. So, he gave me the direction to his house in a Virginia suburb.

I gave him the price and the man responded with a slap to my face. He said I should know the correct price to charge to the location he mentioned. He slapped me and gave me the money.”

Nigerian man narrates how a woman d!ed after years of d0mestic violence

A Nigerian man from Benue State, Msom Terhas has taken to social media to narrate how a woman died after years of enduring domestic violence by her husband and his family members.

According to Mr. Ter, the deceased, who wed her husband immediately after finishing secondary school, was allegedly treated like a slave and called a witch by her husband’s family, especially her mother-in-law.

He wrote;

“We just laid a young lady to rest this evening. This young lady got married to this particular young man at a very tender age just after her secondary school,” he narrated in a Facebook post on Saturday, June 24, 2023.

The mother of her supposed husband first kicked against that marriage that she wasn’t from their village and she doesn’t want her son bringing in strangers as wives into her house.

This woman vehemently told her son that it will be after her death that her son would bring the young lady in.

That enough was a red and red plus flag, one reason she should have ran for her life but she consoled herself that in time the family will accept her , because of love without the assurance of her supposed husband to be, he was quiet never counter or even showed a sign of defense when his mother attacked that young girl

This young lady went into marriage even when nobody accepted her, she was turned into a slave, cooked, wash for both her husband’s younger siblings girls and boys , wash the plate, clean her in laws rooms .

To her after doing these things they will accept her but in reality was a different thing all together.

Her mother in-law went into caves, forest , streams and rivers just to see she never conceive , or be happy

A young lady in her early 20s looking like a woman above her 50s. She went through a lot and people still tagged her witch because of her inability to conceive.

At a certain level her senseless husband believed people which led to her been maltreated seriously, punching her daily.

Young woman kept pushing that one day the family will accept her. While her health was seriously threatened, no money to at least get herself checked up.

She went to the farm while working collapsed and before arrival at the hospital she was history, gave up. I just hope the family both the mother and sisters to her husband will be happy by now. The useless husband too happy.

Sometimes I ask people going through tough times in marriage “ was your father’s house set ablazed before getting married to this family?”

You can make so many mistakes but never marry into a family that at the first instance they made it clear they don’t want you. Once you hear that Picketh your shoesth and runeth, it’s a dangerous war you can not win

If the going isn’t going please pack your bags and go back to your father’s house love isn’t enough to risk your life that way

They are plenty prayer points to ask God while in marriage, don’t make the mistake of asking God to change a family that doesn’t want you

Yes it might have worked for others but you aren’t them , don’t use your life for a test run. May God grant us the request of a good spouse and happy family. When there’s a man to pray, there’s a God to answer. Or I’m telling a tale? Kpash!!! Oson Daddy doesn’t tell tales at all.”

“I gave them house, car, business” – OPM Pastor accuses late Deborah’s family of being ungrateful (Video)

Founder of Omega Power Ministries, Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere has denied the claims made by the late Deborah Samuel’s family that he abandoned them.

He called them ungrateful for accusing him falsely of putting them through pain even after he had provided for their comfort.

Recall that the late Deborah’s parents claimed that contrary to the reports that they had been given a free flat,  the landlord had told them to pay the next rent on time or get ready to leave the property.

Deborah’s father Emmanuel Samuel said; “From time to time, the OPM leader used to call to check on us. He paid the rent. Right now, the rent for this apartment has expired. The landlord has told us to renew the rent or leave.

“All the appliances and the equipment in this apartment belong to OPM, we don’t own it. The first time OPM brought us to Port Harcourt they brought food items to us. After that first time, we have been struggling on our own…”

The clergyman, however, said at a news conference on Saturday that all accusations made against him are untrue since he had granted them ownership of a 14-flat mini-estate and declared them landlords so they could collect money from tenants.

Apostle Chibuzor said that he created a fully equipped store for the mother Mrs. Samuel and provided the father a car to start a taxi service.

He questioned whether they wanted him to go see them and check on how they are running the apartments and their company.

Nigerian couple arrested for reportedly selling their one-month-old baby for N1.7 million

A 48-year-old man, Anthony Igbinogun, and his girlfriend, Joy Umukoro, have been arrested on suspicion of selling their newborn baby to buy drugs.

The baby daddy and his 28-year-old partner were detained by the Edo State Taskforce Against Human Trafficking (ETAHT), along with James Precious, a friend who had connections to the buyer in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Abigail Ihonre, the ETAHT’s Head of Investigation Unit, informed pressmen in Benin City that the baby was sold for N1.7 million.

Ihonre claims that although the baby’s mother admitted to the crime and the infant has not yet been found.

She said that Joy gave birth in April 2023, but Joy later claimed that the couple sold the son because they could not care for him.

Ihonre further alleged that the couple are drug addicts and they risk being sent to jail for seven years.

“Investigation into the case continues as we intensify efforts to locate the baby and the buyers as the matter will be charged to Court on Monday, June 26, 2023, so that everyone culpable is made to face the wrath of the law for their criminal activities.

Our investigations revealed that Joy Umukoro, delivered the baby in April 2023, and conspired with her boyfriend to sell their baby for N1.7 million.

The suspects said they carried out the dastardly act because they couldn’t take care of the baby. These people are alleged drug addicts, and when it was clear that they couldn’t take care of the baby, they decided to sell him. But that wasn’t the best option for them, as the decision could destroy their lives. The penalty for trafficking is about seven years in prison,” she said.

“Without side chicks, a lot of marriages will be broken” – Blessing CEO (Video)

Controversial relationship coach, Okoro Blessing, also known as Blessing CEO, has stirred reactions online after highlighting the critical role played by third parties, “side chicks” in marriage.

She bravely revealed her opinion that side chicks are crucial to the stability of many marriages in a viral interview on Friday with media personality, Tegan Mosugu.

According to Blessing CEO, many married men would decide to end their marriages if they were barred from dealing with other women when their spouses became emotionally unavailable.

In her words;

“Without side chicks, a lot of marriages will be broken today. That is one reality that we would face because a lot of these married women cannot satisfy their husbands. It might not even be sexually.

Men are adventurous by nature. Sometimes when a woman is pregnant, a lot of things are happening to her: she is not in the mood, she’s busy. And the man is out there. The side chick does the work. If there’s no side chick to play that role, men will walk away [from marriage]”

“Looks don’t really matter; my brain does everything” – Doyin reveals why she won’t undergo BBL surgery

Big Brother Naija star and podcaster, Doyinsola Anuoluwapo David, has stated that because her reputation is built on her intelligence, she was not under any pressure to get BBL surgery.

The podcaster claimed that her brain, not her appearance, is what defines her brand during an interview with Punch Saturday Beats.

Doyin claims that she has never felt pressure to change her figure since she hasn’t experienced any humiliation for being a slender woman.

“I have not faced any pressure or discrimination as a slim lady. Looks do not really matter, because my brain does everything. In my opinion, the BBL trend is fading out. My brand is not based on how I look; it is based on my intellect and what value I have to bring to the table,” she said.

Recounting her stay in the BBNaija house, she also spoke on what she would do differently, she said;

“I would be more confrontational because I have now realized that it is best to confront issues at the moment so that people don’t think one is a pushover.”

Doyin also clarified a recent remark she made where she said that educated and uneducated people shouldn’t date;

“The chance that it will work is very slim. I think they will have communication issues. Also, educated and uneducated people do not have the same priorities. I believe education shapes how one reason, communicates, and one’s approach life.”

“Burna Boy was with a gun” – David Hundeyin revisits Cubana club shooting, reveals damning evidences

Independent journalist, David Hundeyin has reopened the case of the shooting at the Cubana club in 2022 involving Afrobeats singer, Burna Boy.

Recall that the musician had an altercation with a group after reportedly making three attempts to invite a lady from the group to his table. Two members of the gang were hurt in the gunfire that followed the dispute at the Cubana club.

A year after the event, David Hundeyin got into a fight with a Burna Boy fan who referred to his investigative journalism as a phony.

In retaliation, Hundeyin produced an exposé on the singer’s club shooting that revealed details that hadn’t before been made public.

Hundeyin alleged in a lengthy thread that Burna Boy had a pistol on him during the confrontation and fled the country when the situation became urgent.

He revealed that after paying off the victims, they signed a gag order prohibiting them from disclosing details or making public comments.

He wrote;

“I have you people’s time this night since Burna Boy himself is too dumb to tell you wastes of space to leave me alone for his own sake. And before his lawyers develop any ideas, I am at liberty to do this – Irebami and Tolu may have signed an NDA, but I didn’t. You pushed me.

The images above are of the bullet hole left in the thigh of Irebami Lawrence on the night of June 8, during an altercation with Burna Boy’s posse, as was widely reported. The night started this way.

And ended with 2 men getting shot because Burna Boy’s fragile ego couldn’t take no for an answer when he tried 3 times to get another man’s fiancee to come to his table.

You probably know all this already. What you don’t know is that the victims testified to me that they saw Burna Boy waving a gun during the altercation, along with at least 2 other members of his posse. I recorded these conversations. Here’s the first one

Here’s the second conversation. I’m sorry if Tomiwa and Irebami didn’t want this out there, but I am tired of Burna Boy’s brain-dead fans casting aspersions on my credibility because they cannot accept that a musician they like is a giant flaming asshole.

The 2 victims also identified at least 2 members of the posse whom they saw waving guns during the incident. Here they are, including one of them who was such a moron that he uploaded the gun to his Instagram story a few minutes later

I spoke to several firearms experts who confirmed that the gun in the picture is a Glock 19 handgun, whose ammunition profile is consistent with that of the size of the holes made in the iPhone and Irebami’s thigh in the opening tweet.

Odogwu immediately left the country, and 3 innocent cops were used as scapegoats for a crime they could not have committed (they were not inside the club, and the NPF does not issue Glock 19’s). While he was tweeting nonsense, his father was begging the victims on his behalf.

Of course I reached out to his management for comment, and the cowards pretended not to see my message. Then he blocked me on Twitter.

Why haven’t you heard all of this before? Because he PAID THEM TO KEEP QUIET AFTERWARD! I was waiting for the victim to give me the ballistics report from America, only for them to inform me that they reached a settlement with your Odogwu that included a gagging order.

For a whole year I have kept quiet and stomached insults from people who are not qualified to be my driver, out of respect for the victims who decided to accept the gagging order. Tonight, you people have finally pushed me to do what I wasn’t going to do. Congratulations.”

He also shared voice recordings of his conversation with the victims. Listen below,
