A mild drama ensued recently between a man who ordered food online and a dispatch rider in the Lekki area of Lagos State.
The man had ordered food online and had it delivered to his location, but when the dispatcher arrived with it, he noticed someone had eaten out of his food.
The customer, who claimed to have received a notification from the food company that the food had reached its destination about an hour before the rider called, accused him of diverting somewhere to eat the food before deciding to deliver what was left in the plate.
The delivery man acknowledged opening the food when confronted, but he insisted he didn’t eat anything from it.
He denied eating any portion of the food and insisted that all he did was open the plate to check the content.
However, towards the end of the video, he admitted to having tasted the food and said he would refund the customer.

“Why people dey do like this na. Seeing comments like “No vex na hunger” I don’t know why we support bad attitudes and give excuses for them. There’s no justification for this act at all cos he no suppose try am at all. You work as a dispatcher and you’re paid for your job, so why eat a customer’s food? This is just so wrong Abeg”
Olori Tobi Phillips, the third wife of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has revealed why she agreed to be one of the monarch’s queens.
Speaking in a recent interview with TVC, Olori Tobi, a former beauty queen, shared the series of events that preceded her marriage to the monarch, including how they met.
She said someone had called her to ask if she was interested in getting married to the Ooni of Ife.
She said she met the king and they started dating, and since he had all the things she wanted in a spouse, she agreed to marry him and be his third wife.
“Series of events happened and I think that year I was just praying God I wanted to get married and somebody just called me one day and said “Do you want to get married?” and I was like what’s happening”” And then he went further asking “Would you like to get married to Ooni of Ife?”.
“He introduced me to the King but I didn’t take this seriously as I was still wandering what’s going on. We started dating but along the line, there were so many interference and we didn’t get married. That was quite devastating.
I always promised myself that I will marry someone that I love. There are values that I love in a man and the Ooni has that’s why I later agreed to marry him. If you find that person that fits specific criteria that are not negotiable for you, then you go with it. Ordinarily, I never imagined that I would find myself in a polygamous setting, but I always had some non-negotiable,” she said.

In other news, Queen Tobi Phillips, the third wife of the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has stated that domestic violence is her deal-breaker in a relationship.
Speaking in a recent interview on TVC, the former World Miss University Africa (WMUA) maintained that she would not tolerate any form of abuse and would leave a marriage if her husband ever raised his hand at her.

Her words,
“My deal breaker is don’t ever lay your hands on me. If that happens it’s over. And he (Ooni of Ife) is not that kind of person. If you have a relationship where you can communicate and share your likes and dislikes and you respect each other. With that, you guys will not get to the point where you are clashing.

Popular Nollywood actor,Kunle Remi, has taken to his social media page to reveal that he almost committed suicide back in 2017.
The actor shared his past struggles while reacting to news of the death of American dancer and DJ, Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss, who committed suicide on Wednesday, December 14.
Kunle, in a video shared on his Instagram page, said he came very close to ending it all in 2017 due to depression.
According to the 34-year-old actor, he was overwhelmed with thoughts about his life, career, and relationship, and felt like he was useless and valueless.
He said it took the grace of God for him not to take his own life, and encouraged other people who are depressed to speak up, instead of bottling up their emotions.
In his words:
“Yesterday the news broke of DJ Twitch’s passing by suicide and it was a very sad news but I can absolutely relate to that.
“It’s never really fine as we say even though we always act like it’s fine. We go through a lot as men.
“I remember in 2017 I had a series of tweet that I went on to delete. It was very suicidal. Someone called me a year later and said I should go delete those tweets, I was going through a lot.
“I was overwhelmed, I was thinking too much of my career, am I doing enough? am I enough? am I with the right person? so many thoughts in my mind.
“At a point I could not take it, I felt so useless, not enough, incompetent, even though it was the contrary of what I felt, I was beating myself too much, then I started to tweet randomly and I was very close to jumping off the bridge or just taking my life. It took the grace of God for me to scale through that.
“I usually bottle up, I don’t share stuff but I learnt to become better doing that. And I just want to share a word with every man out there.
“Look it’s not easy and it’s not going to be easy, but talk to someone. Always have someone in your corner that you can talk too and open up with.
“Life is beautiful but it doesn’t guarantee that it will be smooth all the time but we need to always find a balance and choose happiness over being sad. I’ve been there, I’ve gone through it.
“Right now I still caution myself, I take life one day at a time, once I get overwhelmed I shut down. Depression, mental health are very important. We can do better. Just thought to share.”
