Nkechi Blessing mocks

Controversial Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing has taken a swipe at scoffers who claim she can never be invited to a formal gathering.

Days after the dramatic event, Nkechi Blessing had a speaking engagement at a formal event and took to her social media page to throw jabs at those who claim she never be invited to a serious gathering because of her mannerisms online and office. She mocked them and said they are not God.

“Stop demoniz!ng CS” – Doctor advises as woman loses her womb and baby after refusing to undergo CS due to religious beliefs

Doctor advises

A doctor has advised Nigerians and religious leaders to stop demonizing Caesarean Section (CS) because there’s nothing wrong with it.

@drpenking gave this admonition on Twitter, while recounting the sad story of how a woman in labour lost her baby and womb because she refused to undergo CS.

He said the woman had an obstructed labour and was advised to do CS to save her life and that of the baby but she refused because her pastor told her she will ‘deliver like the Hebrew women’.

healthy pregnancy. Side view pregnant woman with big belly advanced pregnancy in hands. Banner copyspace for text. Elegant mother waiting baby

Sadly, she developed more complications in the process, the baby died in her uterus and her womb had to be evacuated.

Reacting, Dr Penking urged Nigerians to stop criticizing CS because it’s a life-saving procedure and doesn’t make a woman less of a woman.

He tweeted,

“She had an obstructed labour. The Doctor on call decided on CS. She said that her pastor told her that she’ll deliver “like the Hebrew women” and besides they don’t use to do CS in her family. She asked to be taken to church. She was later rushed back to the hospital

She had had uterine rupture with total myometrial and serosal disruption. Baby was floating in the peritoneum, dead. Uterus was bleeding like an ocean and could not be repaired . It was removed . The child was her first child. She lost her first child and lost her womb for life.

Stop demonizing CS. It is a life-saving procedure and nothing is wrong with it. For all pastors who keep making women lose their children by telling them lies, God will ask you on your dying bed.

CS does not make you less of a woman.
Having CS doesn’t mean you are a weakling
Having CS doesn’t make you inferior
Stop demonizing CS”

“I am good to my wife because she is submissive, bows her head and folds her hands behind her back when I speak to her” – Bayelsa lawyer says

A Nigerian lawyer, identified as Ebikebuna Augustine Aluzu, has revealed that he’s good to his wife because she’s completely submissive to him and reveres him.

Aluzu, who’s popular for his quite controversial advice to his male Facebook followers, made this statement in response to a lady who noted that he has a different personality in reality than what he portrays on social media.

According to the lady, contrary to what one might deduce from his social media posts, Aluzu is a kind man who’s good to his wife and takes extreme care of her.

“This man is a kind, loving, generous and caring man to his beautiful wife. Sometimes I pity young guys following his “Dear kings” series because he is living happily at home.” The lady wrote.

Responding, Aluzu disclosed that he’s good to his wife because she is submissive, doesn’t check his phone, bows her head, and folds her hand behind her back when he speaks to her.

His words,

“Yes. I am good to my wife because she is submissive. When I speak to her, she bow her head and fold her hand behind her back. She doesn’t check my phone. She was doing that when we got married newly but I told her I am a polygamous man and that she can’t be chasing away my potential second wife so she stopped,”

“She doesn’t nag me or disturb me when I don’t have money. She doesn’t also listen to idle talks and don’t comment on every post on social media. She doesn’t shake her bumbum on social media too. She doesn’t expose her body parts to the public. She is very beautiful even without make up but she understands her place and she knows that I am the Prize. I found myself doing all she ask me to do for her effortlessly.

“I have several business which I run and she manages them. The question is can you do these things for your own man so he will be loving, caring and peaceful to you.”

“Collecting money from your kids without refunding it is manipulative” – Daddy Freeze calls out mothers.

Popular media personality, Daddy Freeze, has shared his opinion on the conversation of mothers taking money from their children without paying it back.

A Twitter user identified as Dekunle revealed that his mum took money from him but refused to pay it back because she carried him for 9 months.

He wrote;

“I borrowed someone € 350 to buy bag, e reach time to collect am back, she’s telling me she carried me for nine months.”

Daddy Freeze replied to him and called out the act as manipulative, urging this generation not to normalize it.

In his words;

“Let’s be careful of what we normalize. This is NOT cute! It’s downright manipulative.-
If your mother wants you to dash her money, she should come out and say so! Also as a child, you are obliged to give HER whatever you CAN AFFORD for a bag. Health, shelter, etc are priorities, not a bag.
But if you can afford it, buy it for her, but be firm enough to let her know that a loan must be repaid. I consider myself quite generous as a son or inlaw, but I have zero tolerance for manipulation under any guise. ~FRZ.”

See my face, very rough. You people cannot hold a conversation without them saying they are financially down. You guys should take it easy.

“The last few days had me reflecting, looking back at how far I’ve come, the Wins and the Losses, whatever rap may or may not be, it got me this, everything i have, the cult like fans who by far are the best part of everything.
I said that to say I’m disappointed, everyone knows I’m a big wizkid fan, maybe even a dick rider on twitter but rn I’m disappointed, i am, I can’t hide my emotions, I wasn’t even mad at the magazine article, those are conversations I’ve even had behind the scenes, but the actions that followed can’t be defended, heavily degrading and undeserved but I’d keep doing my thing, carrying the most bashed and the most attacked genre on my back, showing the world what a Nigerian rapper looks like.
I’d keep dropping these hits, classic albums, selling out my shows, however far it takes me I’m good with it long as i can feed my family. With that said Stream Young Preacher forever.”

Mother causes a stir as she reveals she bought her son female dresses after he requested for them

A mother has elicited a flurry of reactions on Twitter after she revealed she bought her son dresses after he demanded for them.

According to her, her son had been requesting female clothes, so she finally decided to grant his wish and bought him dresses and allowed him to rock them.

She said when another kid next door saw her son in a dress, he was curious and asked her why she dressed her boy in female clothing, and she simply responded that it was his wish.

“My son has been asking for a dress. I finally decided to just get him dresses despite being afraid he’d get teased by other kids. Today, the boy next door asked why he was wearing a dress, I said “he wanted one” and he said “okay” then they continued to play. The kids are alright”, she wrote on Twitter.

However, the revelation sparked a range of responses. While some Twitter users praised her parenting style, others thought it was weak of her to let him wear something that was “unfit” for his gender.

“The role of a parent is to nurture and guide a child, not to caress his ego and give in to his misguided wants”, a tweep wrote.
