“In your victory speech, never embarrass the effort of your parents by saying you came from nothing” – Veteran Nollywood actress, Obot Etuk advises people.

Veteran Nollywood Actress turned Pastor, Mrs. Obot Etuk has advised individuals to be careful not to minimize their parents’ contributions anytime they get the chance to make a victory speech.

In a post shared on her Instagram page, Ms. Etuk said that individuals should never take advantage of the chance to praise the sacrifices made by their parents by minimizing their efforts and claiming they started from nothing.

She wrote;

“In your victory speech ladies and gentlemen, never embarrass the effort of your parents by saying you came from nothing. Whatever you had then was what they could afford. And they gave it to you with love.
Make them feel better by praising them.
Remember, we reap what we sow.”

A while back, Mrs. Obot Etuk advised all young ladies out there to desist from pre-marital sex.

In a post she made on her Facebook wall, she declared that sex cannot be used to prove love. Adding that even animals have sex, but then it doesn’t mean they are in love.

She wrote;

“My young lady……..

if he is insisting on sex before marriage, he is not the man for you. You cannot use sex to prove love. Goats have sex. Infact, dogs have sex and everywhere too but they are not in love.

If sex means love, then the prostitute should fall in love with every man she has sex with.

Sex is meant for marriage young lady. Waiting is the real love. It is mark of maturity. That is the kind of man you should say yes to, not the one that wants you to compromise your virtue, pride, dignity, just to satisfy his lust.

And how many will you love cos I’m sure he’s not the only man you’ve had sex with.

Bolanle Olukanni criticizes Police PRO Benjamin Hundeyin for his choice of words while reacting to the fatal shooting of Bolanle Raheem by a police officer.

Popular media personality and actress, Bolanle Olukanni has called out the Lagos State Police PRO, Benjamin Hundeyin, for his choice of words while reacting to the shooting of pregnant Bolanle Raheem by a police officer.

The pregnant Bolanle Raheem was shot and killed by a policeman in front of her family on Christmas Day.

PRO, Benjamin Hundeyin had reacted to the fatal shooting on the microblogging platform, Twitter as an “unfortunate and avoidable incident”.

He wrote;

“Unfortunate and avoidable incident that was. The ASP that shot and two others with him have since been taken into custody. They are to be moved to the SCID for further investigation.”

His choice of words did not sit well with Bolanle who said “unfortunate” and “avoidable” were words used when reacting to something minor, like missing an appointment, not when an innocent mother is killed by a police officer in the presence of her husband and child.

She said Hundeyin’s choice of words showed how indifferent authorities were to what was actually happening.

Taking to her official Instagram page to express her annoyance at the level of nonchalance, she shared a video calling out Benjamin.

She wrote;

“THE NIGERIAN POLICE FORCE: We have asked ourselves many times how can this change ? Where does the change begin – the leadership of the Nigerian Police have to care . They have to show their officers that the impunity is enough -these killings cannot continue to happen . The day after the Bolanle Raheem’s murder – I still police officers on the road doing stop and search. A car in front of me gave the police officer 1k- the police officer was so excited , smiling and laughing. So if that was a armed robber or kidnapper that’s all it takes to by pass them ?? Because the police keep justifying the check points as a way to keep the streets safe??? But apparently small change and no questions asked. Bolanle Raheems tragedy could be anyone of us. Our leaders – politicians: I just want to say that this could have been anyone of your children, your relatives , your family members. Please use your power to do something good. Call the police to order. Tired and sadden by my country. 💔💔 #justiceforbolanle #justiceforall”

He warned him to stop mentioning his name in his video and recalled how Lord Casted insulted him after helping him in the past. Read here.

Suspect recounts

A 31-year-old man, identified as Edeh Tochukwu, has been arrested for the murder of his girlfriend, Ijeoma Felix, 48, in Abuja on October 24, 2022.

Edeh was nabbed by operatives of the Police Intelligence Response Team (IRT) after he was found culpable for the death of his lover.

While being paraded before journalists on Tuesday, December 27, Edeh recounted how he met Ijeoma on Facebook two years ago, and how their relationship blossomed to the point where he moved into her two-bedroom apartment in Lugbe, FCT.

Suspect recounts

He said their relationship started going downhill when she started questioning his movement.

“Whenever anyone calls me on the phone, she was always angry. I couldn’t express myself. I can’t stay on the phone for more than five minutes. She will pick offence. She will insult me”

Recalling what happened on October 24, Edeh said he had an altercation with the deceased over a Highlander car she gave to him, which he had sold without her knowledge, and the fight turned violent.

“When I came around, the argument started all over again about the car. It was at this point that she raised her voice. She started insulting and everything. She went to the sitting room, dropped her home theater on me which I still defended. She was back with the pestle the second time, it was really unintentional because I was angry and all that…I snatched it away from her and shoved her with it. When she was coming up, involuntarily I hit her with the pestle..That was when she fell down and started crying and saying why did I hit her”, he said.

Speaking further, he said after killing her with the pestle, he absconded with her Toyota Camry, phone and other belongings.

He said he was arrested on November 2, 2022, after changing the car documents of the Camry and selling it for N1.7 million.

“The church betrayed me” – Actor, Timini Egbuson reveals why he left church (Video)

Popular Nollywood actor, Timini Egbuson, has revealed why he left the church.

Speaking during an interview with Lilian Afegbai on her Youtube show, Lilian’s Couch, Timini opened up about his relationship with God and how he was betrayed by the church.

According to him, he was a church boy who used to preach in the main churches when he was a teenager.

He said that as time went on, he realised that there was a lot of pretence in the church, which made him leave the church system to find God and have a personal relationship with him.

“I feel like me and God have a personal relationship. I’ve been betrayed by the church in the past. Like, I was a full church boy. In my teenage years, I used to preach in the main church on Sundays. Everything you think I have now in terms of swag and whatever, it was in church that I learned it.

Then I went to some other churches. But I just realized that there’s a lot of pretense. And I know it’s not a reason to stop going because obviously. So basically you know, it’s just a thing where I was just like okay let me find this man called God on my own. And that’s what we are doing right now.

There’s someone I’m seeing, or talking to, right now that introduced me to this whole Bible plan. I mean, sometimes I just lie to her when she asks “have you checked it this morning?” In terms of reading the Bible again and all that, I’m not really there yet but like a one on one relationship with my God. Talking to him saying “how far baba? this is what I’m doing” and He’s been helping me make the best decisions so far. And it’s calm.” He said.

Temmie Ovwasa slams

The openly gay singer, who is very vocal about her sexuality, further questioned why an adult will want to date a younger person, instead of their age mate.

She wrote,

“If you’re in your 30’s dating someone in their 20’s (number 1, why?)
If you are, and you expect them to have shit figured out as much as you do,
You don’t have sense, Mummy Please go and date your mate.

This shit is rampant within the lgbt community,
Don’t you think something is wrong with you developmentally?
I’m not even looking at it from an ethical standpoint now, I’ve been with women that were decades older than me and I refuse to grow up into that kind of person.

Why do you have so much in common with someone that just finished being a teenager?”
