Immediately I saw your husband car with his friends behind us not knowing it was a tricky move to unknown direction..They finally drove silently into the court premises at nomansland

Dad brought all his talents and expertise back to Nigeria๐ณ๐ฌ with the hopes of creating a World Trade Center/African Wall Street.
When I was born in Nigeria๐ณ๐ฌ I was surrounded by wealth, servants, opulence and two loving parents who despite having it all, modeled the importance of hard work, never being a victim and never being satisfied with mediocrity.
In 1987 the Nigerian government๐ณ๐ฌ illegally and corruptly stole all of my dadโs assets, including his man made island thatโs now worth billions and was renamed to Banana Island.
While fighting the Nigerian government๐ณ๐ฌ in court, he mysteriously died weeks later.
We went from rich to poor over night.
Mom brought my brother and me to America
It wasnโt easy, as we literally started from the bottom in the Bronx๐ ๐พ
My brother and I applied what our parents instilled in us at an early age, and despite the plethora of mistakes I made, we both became very successful.
Without the opportunities Americ has afforded my family, Iโd be nothing. Yeah, Americ isnโt perfect. We have our issues, just like every other country on the planet, but America is one of the handful of places in the world where you can start with nothing, put in the work, and end up at the top.
I love this country, and Iโm not ashamed to say it. And the moment I feel otherwise, Iโm gonna pack my stuff up, teach my kids a new language and seek life elsewhere.
With that said, #HappyIndependenceDay ๐บ๐ธ #4thofjuly”

Apparently, close friends and family also caught wind of the news and immediately reached out to Erica’s mother to confirm if she was indeed married.
In the snapshot of the WhatsApp chat with her mother that Erica shared, the actress’ mother mentioned that their relatives were calling her from Arochukwu to find out if it was true that her daughter had secretly married Wande.
Erica then explained to her mother that she is not married and it was all a joke.
Sharing the chat on Twitter, Erica captioned it, “See what you people have caused ๐ญ my mom sent this.”
A former Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka, has appealed to Anambra state pupil, Mmesoma Ejikeme, who was accused by JAMB of inflating her 2023 UTME result, to “come clean.”
Mmesoma Ejikeme has been in the news after the examination board, in a statement, accused her of forging her result and proclaiming herself as the top scorer.
According to JAMB, Mmesoma scored 249 in the exam, contrary to the 362 she is claiming. As a result of her actions, the board stated that it has withdrawn Mmesoma’s result and banned her from taking the exam for the next three years.
In a statement released on Wednesday, July 5, Chidoka, who is also the owner of the Computer-Based Testing (CBT) Centre where Mmesoma sat for her examination, said that if Mmesoma reveals the source of her result, he will plead with the board to show her some leniency.
He pointed out that the result Mmesoma was claiming had the former name of his center, which has since been changed.
His statement reads:
โMiss Nmesoma Ejikeme took her 2023 JAMB at my foundationโs Computer-Based Testing (CBT) Center at Obosi. I got some calls from worried friends about Nmesomaโs result, which had Thomas Chidoka Center as her examination center. I allayed their worries that the result issue had nothing to do with the examination center.
I observed two significant red flags when I saw her result online. First, our center is no longer addressed as Thomas Chidoka Center for Human Development on the JAMB portal since 2021. The correct name on the JAMB portal and Main Examination Slip is Nkemefuna Foundation (Thomas Chidoka Center for Human Development). Due to the difference in our CAC registration details, JAMB insisted we change to Nkemefuna Foundation with Thomas Chidoka in a bracket as an identifier. We implemented the name change in 2021. Her result showing Thomas Chidoka without the Nkemefuna Foundation, which was on her Main Examination slip, raised my suspicion about the genuineness of the result.
The second red flag was the result template. A cursory review of some of those who took the last examination at our center showed a different result slip template with the candidateโs passport picture, JAMB watermarks, and no mention of the name of the examination center. I gave the young Nmesoma the benefit of the doubt and waited to see if she would explain how she got the result, which is obviously not the result template that Jamb used in 2023. I knew it was fake.
Our Center has been involved with the JAMB CBT examination since 2016, and I have come to trust the integrity of the JAMB online examination platform. As Corps Marshal in 2011, I used JAMB to conduct the FRSC recruitment exercise that is still adjudged a high-water mark in public sector recruitment. Those recruited through that process wear their uniform with pride and continue to deliver value to the organisation to this day.
For me, the real issue in this saga is the level of distrust of our national institutions. The social media frenzy and denigration of JAMB, together with the ethnic slant of a simple issue with clear and verifiable methods of resolution, is symptomatic of the deep distrust of our national institutions. This distrust was deepened in the past 8 years with a horrifying descent of issues to our national fault lines. The Ethnicisation of the issue is sad and disappointing.
I doff my hat for JAMB. They came out forcefully and defended their integrity vigorously. They shared the USSD communication between Nmesomaโs phone and their servers with timestamps. Mr. Fabian Benjamin, the JAMB spokesperson, did a yeomanโs job in explaining how their system works and the security of their result portal. He even asked anyone who cares to crosscheck with AIRTEL, the network provider of Nmesoma.โs phone. Their transparency was compelling and disarming.
The JAMB Registrar, Professor Oloyede, issued statements based on facts and defended the integrity of a foremost Nigerian institution whose failure would have had a catastrophic effect on Nigeriaโs educational and CBT systems. I was impressed. JAMBโs reaction and responsiveness should be made a minimum benchmark for government agencies. Our universities should write case studies of this saga so other institutions can learn how to navigate social media and information management in the face of unrelenting attacks.
JAMB’s response is an example to follow. If INEC leadership has any sense of shame and any shred of integrity, they should save President Tinubu from a needless legitimacy question by behaving like JAMB. They should step forward and explain what technical glitch they had on election day that marred the upload of form EC8As from polling units across the country. They should share with the public the interaction between the BVAS sim cards and their servers. They should share the audit report of their servers during the failed upload. When Dominion, an election system company in the United States, was defamed by FOX TV, they went to court to defend the integrity of their system, and the court awarded them $700M. Maintaining the integrity of elections is fundamental to democracy.
INEC, as a public-funded institution, should share with the citizens all forms EC8Bs collated at the 8809 wards, EC8Cs, collated at the 774 LGAs, and EC8Ds collated at the 36 States and fully upload all the EC8As on IREV after the fact using the original copies submitted by the Presiding officers. This cannot be asking for too much from an institution led by a professor who spent $650.57 million (N303.17 billion) to conduct the 2023 election.
Like Jamb, INEC must be accountable to the people of Nigeria. They should step forward and restore the integrity and sanctity of elections in Nigeria and remove the cloud of illegitimacy surrounding the election of President Tinubu if their system worked as they are claiming. The courts can not remove the national disappointment, odium, and massive distrust of INECโs election infrastructure, no matter the decision.
For Nmesoma, she should come clean and explain how she got that result and who led her down that path. If she does that, I will lend my voice to beg JAMB to note her age and show more leniency.”

A Nigerian woman has received heat on social media after revealing that she and her husband started beating their son before his first birthday.
The woman who goes by the Twitter handle @decey_blue made this shocking revelation in response to a Twitter user who advised parents to establish authority over their children early in life.
In response, @decey_blue agreed with the idea and shared that her two-year-old son is well-behaved because her husband started beating him before he turned one.
She mentioned that her husband insisted on disciplining their son from a young age, which she expressed concern about initially but eventually succumbed to the idea.
“Hubby started beating our son before he turned 1. I was concerned but he said it’s important to do all necessities now that he’s still very young. So we jointly correct him and shower him with love (we correct because we love)
He’s not even 2 yet, but he’s so obedient and lovely,” she tweeted.
Her statement did not go down well with many, and they asserted that she and her husband have traumatized their son to the point where he is now timid, and they think it is him being ‘obedient and lovely.
A 39-year-old woman has taken to social media to lament some of her life challenges.
In a video she shared on her TikTok page, she complained about being single, childless, without a car, or a house of her own at 39.
The quite touching video has garnered over a million views after she shared it online and stirred emotions from social media users.
In the clip, the woman is seen shedding tears as she highlights her struggles.
“At 39, still single, no children, no car, no house. Dear Lord.” She captioned the video.
Reacting to the clip, many women via the comments encouraged her with kind words and their life stories.
A user @havlah advised her to slow down and be patient with life. Her words,
“Slow down and be patient with life.. If you are looking for wealth, some body else is looking for health.. If you are looking for health, some body just died.. Each time a new mansion springs fort, a new grave is dug below the earth..
Each time you throw away food, someone else is looking for Random to eat.. For each smile on the planet, there’s a drop of tears in another place on the planet.. For each celebration of a new birth, there are wailing over death.. Each time you drink water, someone is using pipe for the same purpose.. So, always be thankful.. Think of the goodness you have rather than the vanities you long for.”

A Mercedes Benz GLB 250 worth N55 million which was reportedly stolen by a customer in Abuja has been recovered in Asaba, Delta state.
A car dealer, identified as Mohammed Manga, had earlier cried out on social media after the customer, identified simply as Henry, allegedly absconded with the car during a test drive.
Manga’s friend, who is also involved in car trading, had taken the Mercedes Benz to Henry for a test drive. However, few minutes into the drive, Manga’s friend stepped out briefly to withdraw money from a POS machine.
It was during this time that Henry allegedly vanished with the vehicle.
