Controversial Nigerian singer, Portable has queried the Ogun state police command for attempting to arrest him because he ‘disciplined’ his apprentice, Manny Monie.

Joshua, who cited the various measures he put in place to avoid committing adultery, stated that men who want to be faithful to their wives must be extra-cautious.

Read his full post below,

“To be honest, the way this world is set up, any man who wants to be faithful to his wife has to be somewhat extra. This isn’t a rule of thumb but I have put certain parameters in place to make sure alarms go off if the temptation is too close for comfort.

An image of what is at stake is always on my mind. My smartwatch, phone, laptop and WhatsApp DP, and chat wallpaper is always a picture of my wife or my wife and daughter. This reminds me that their huge smiles can turn upside down with just one mistake.

I am Accountable to my wife. She is signed into my email account, my social media accounts and she has the password to my phone. Anywhere that the temptation wants to come from in an online form, e no fit hide. sin thrives in secrecy.

I make sure to bring up my wife in every conversation I have with the opposite sex. If the relationship is the counseling type, the person must know my wife. Every counseling session must take place with my wife close by. If she’s unavailable that day, counselling won’t hold.

I relax by watching Chelsea FC thrash everyone else, my wife relaxes by watching Rom Coms. I taught my wife everything about soccer, she taught me everything about why rom-coms are not cringe-worthy. Now we both enjoy being part of each other’s hobbies

This has helped us spend more time together as friends who really enjoy each other’s company. She’s a Chelsea FC Stan now and can converse in fluent “Soccer-nese” and I really, REALLY enjoy rom-coms.

Most importantly, I love my wife. I love everything about her. I don’t want to not have this much access into her personal space. So I’m going to do everything in my power to make sure I don’t lock myself out just because of lust. She’s worth more to me than a cheap thrill.”

In other news, a Nigerian registered nurse and midwife, Kendra, has shared her experience with a Chief Nursing Officer on her first day in a hospital ward.

Taking to the microblogging platform, she narrated that she was ordered to iron a scrub by the CNO.

According to her, the request was extremely confusing as it was outside her job description but the CNO did not seem to care.

She wrote;

“Today I was posted to a new ward. I came in, changed my clothes and sat down. A nurse came in and I greeted her. The next thing she told me “come and iron my scrubs” I was confused and she really asked me why I was shocked. Why should I iron your scrubs? Nah Nigeria is crazy.
And she was like I am the CNO. And so fucking what? Is it not the same license we have? Where was it written in my resumption letter that I am here to iron a CNO scrubs? It’s paining me that I ironed because I didn’t just want to cause wahala this new week,”
She really opened that her mouth to tell me that” why are you confused?, if you see the things as I need when I was a new nurse”. And in my mind I am like, how is that my business? People really need to do better Fr. The first time you are seeing me and you are telling me to iron her scrubs for her. God. Nigerians should learn how to treat their subordinate for real.”

“I have been given the greatest birthday gift by Nigerians” – President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu

The president-elect, Bola Tinubu has shared appreciation with Nigerians for celebrating him on his 71st birthday and promised not to fail in ruling the country.

Sharing his 71st birthday message, he revealed that he has been preparing for this position all his life and he cannot afford to squander his mandate as the nation’s next president.

A week after his media assistant, Tunde Rahman, revealed that he had left the country for a holiday in Paris, France, he made good on his promise in a somber rumination titled “My 71st Birthday Message to Nigerians.”

According to Tinubu, his campaign pledges are more than just empty platitudes; rather, they tie him to the goal of improving Nigeria for the good of all Nigerians.

He wrote;

“Dear Nigerians, I thank all of you who have expressed your goodwill towards me on the occasion of my 71st birthday. I received your kind words with great pleasure and was profoundly touched by the depth of your care and support. Above all, I thank God Almighty for the life He has given me, for all the opportunities and doors He has opened to me along the way.
This year, in particular, I see this day as one of deep reflection. The spiritual meaning and significance of the holy month of Ramadan matter to me much more than the celebration of any individual milestone. Yet, this is my first birthday as the President-elect. A few weeks back, Nigerians gave me the honour of a lifetime. In exactly two months, on the 29th of May my term in office will begin. It is a rare privilege indeed, and one that I do not take lightly and shall not squander
With such a privilege already granted to me, I will not go so far as to suggest I am due any birthday presents this year. I have already been given the greatest gift. A chance to lead and fulfil destiny. An opportunity to champion your aspirations and to bring about the Nigeria of your dreams.
I will, instead, use this day as an opportunity to reiterate my commitment to the great and important task of rebuilding our nation and renewing the hope of the Nigerian people. I campaigned hard and made important promises. Those promises were not mere words; professed glibly or cynically to win support.
They represent a bond that binds me to the task of creating a better Nigeria for the benefit of every Nigerian, whether you voted for me or not. I have prepared for this moment all my life, I will not fail.
Henceforth, may growth, hope, peace and compassion stand proudly and ring loudly throughout the land. May we find the right way and the good courage to turn our beloved country into a strong, just and prosperous home for all. May Almighty God bless all Nigerians.”
