Samuel Eto'o tenders apology

Following the heat that trailed the attack, Eto’o has now tendered an apology for his action, as he also urged Algerians to stop harassing him and other Cameroonians due to their loss.

In his statement, Eto’o wrote: ‘On 5 December, after the Brazil-South Korea match, I had a violent altercation with a person who was probably an Algerian supporter.

‘I would like to apologise for losing my temper and reacting in a way that does not match my personality. I apologise to the public for this unfortunate incident.

‘I pledge to continue to resist the relentless provocation and daily harassment of some Algerian supporters. Indeed, since the Cameroon-Algeria match on 29th March in Blida.

‘I have been the target of insults and allegations of cheating without any evidence. During this World Cup, Cameroonian fans have been harassed and pestered by Algerians on the same subject.

‘I would like to mention that the scenario of Algeria’s defeat was cruel but perfectly in line with the rules and ethics of our sport. All the appeals made by the Algerian Football Federation to the competent jurisdictions have been rejected.

‘I, therefore, call on the Algerian authorities and Federation to take their responsibilities to put an end to this unhealthy climate before a more serious tragedy occurs.

‘To Fennecs’ fans, I wish that they find peace and manage to overcome the disappointment of a painful defeat, now behind us’.

South African virgin vows

A South African woman who gained popularity on social media for being a virgin at 33, has vowed to keep speaking about her virginity until she gives it away to her husband.

Zukiswa Joyi, a graduate of Durban University of Technology, stated this in a post shared on her Facebook page on Tuesday, December 6, 2022.

According to her, if celebrities and influencers can brag about sex, body count and other sex-related discourse, then people shouldn’t complain about her decision to publicize her virginity.


“If Christ tarries I will keep speaking about my Purity and Virginity until I give it away to my husband,”
she wrote.

“You all don’t complain when your favorite celebrities are speaking about body counts, boasting about useless things and misleading young galz even those inside the church…. It’s an honorable thing to remain a virgin until marriage, it’s even more honorable to remain sexually pure while single and inside marriage…….happy Tuesday. #33YrsOldVirgin #NoRingNosex #HonoringGod”

Mother goes blind after tattooing her eyeballs blue and purple to copy an influencer

A mother-of-five, Anaya Peterson, who tattooed her eyeballs, has ended up in the hospital and risks losing her sight.

The 32-year-old tattooed her eyeballs blue and purple, drawing inspiration from Australian model “blue-eyed dragon” Amber Luke, who got her eyeballs inked blue in 2019—before going temporarily blind for three weeks.

Anaya has been hospitalized since the eye alteration and is likely to become permanently blind as a result of an allergic reaction to the eyeball ink.

The mum, who also has a tongue split and facial tattoos, now says she wishes she had listened to her daughter who had warned her against the procedure.

She got her right eyeball tattooed blue in July 2020 and decided to get her left eye dyed purple in December 2020.

After months without complications, Anaya was shocked to wake up in August 2021 with “swollen” eyelids.

As the swelling continued to get worse despite taking antibiotics, Anaya checked herself into the hospital’s A&E ward.

Anaya disclosed that her daughter India was never supportive of her getting the eye tattoo, as she feared that her mom would “go blind.”

“I was just going to get one [eye tattoo] at first because I thought that if I go blind, at least I’ve got the other eye. I should have stuck with that.

“My daughter told me that I didn’t want to do that [the tattoo] asking, ‘what if you go blind?’ She wasn’t on board with it at all. my [top] eyelid started to swell, and my bottom eyelid started to swell. It kept getting worse and worse. I looked like I’d done ten rounds with Mike Tyson.

“I took the option to go [to hospital] myself. They gave me surgery and took samples of my eye. They wouldn’t have been able to do it while I was awake, I would have been an absolute nightmare, so they put me to sleep. I just wanted to be at home watching [TV] to be honest. I can’t even put it into words. It wasn’t nice at all whatsoever.

“It was traumatizing to go through. I just remember thinking, I’m not doing that sh*t again, with the eye tattoo. I’m definitely not doing that sh*t again.” She said.

The ordeal has left Anaya regretting her choice to follow in the footsteps of Amber Luke, after she was told by ophthalmologists that she is now at a very high risk of contracting glaucoma and her eyesight is already worsening, with her vision clouded by “hundreds of thousands of floaters.”

“You look like someone who begs for sxx” – Laycon claps back at a troll that said he lacked flows and bars.

Popular Nigerian singer and BBNaija star, Olamilekan Agbeleshe, otherwise known as Laycon, has fired back at a Twitter user who rubbished his music career.

The user identified as Sir David expressed that Laycon who ventured into rap music full-time, was not a rapper with flows and bars.

“Sometimes, you’d wonder if folks on this music Twitter have ears. They are calling rappers with flows & bars and you’re calling Laycon. Must be ment though.” he wrote

Laycon clapped back saying the Twitter user looks like someone who is starved of everything good in life.

In his words;

“Bro, you look like someone who is starved of every good thing in life. And I don’t know if you’re married or not but you look like someone who begs his wife for sex every time.”

In other news, Popular Nigerian skit maker and actor, Samuel Perry better known as Broda Shaggi, has urged African fathers to show more love and affection to their children.

According to the 29-year-old comedian, he can’t wait to have kids so he can shower them with love, care, and express how much he loves them at any given opportunity

He wrote,

“African fathers please hug your children! love them ….it matters a lot!
No be when pikin won enter University, you go give am first hug
I definitely will want my future kids to say “daddy I love you” every time they wake up.
I can’t wait to draw them so close to my heart that they will hear every beat coming from my heart.

Oroufagha and his wife, Evang. (Dr.) Mrs. Emomotimi Benedicta, have been married for two years and welcomed their first child last year.

Emomotimi took to Facebook to accuse certain members of his family and friends of betraying him.

He wrote;

“They will sleep with your wife and still kill you. That’s the world we are in. Be careful.
If there are people who still seek truth, join me in my bid to unravel the truth behind my son’s paternity
I have said it countless times. If the tests turns out that I was wrong, I am ready to serve the jail term, if they so desire. All I want is, let truth and justice prevail.”
“Bcoz I am a leader, I should hide the truth. That in itself is a sin. It is another method of emotional blackmail.
Let it be on record that if I die today, she and her strong men killed me”


Just three months ago, he took to Facebook to describe his wife as his biggest mentor and a prayer warrior.

In his words;

“MY WIFE, MY BIGGEST MENTOR. My wife, Evang. (Dr.) Mrs. Emomotimi Benedicta, the ‘ere ke ere pere 1’ of Bila-Mein Kingdom.
A woman of very critical reasoning. She is full of understanding. A wise woman. Wisest lady of the earth. She is keen and transparent. One friend you wish you could have. She doesn’t hide telling you the bitter truth. She must leave you blessed and happy. A happy soul. A woman of God.
God saw that my works in the earth are due for a pay, he sent Benny to me. He wrapped her in one piece and gifted me with her. A thousand pieces in one piece. A woman who has stood with me through shame and insult.
My wife is a big blessing to me. A blessing in many ways. Unexplainable ways. It is as though God is using her to guide me. My prayer warrior and defender.
My wife is my first hand specimen in studying women. And i am grateful for how much of a man i have become with you. I have in many other occasions wanted to know certain truths, held the opposite side of some arguments. And my wife doesn’t and hasn’t proved me wrong. She has proven to be a worthy mentor and role model. And therefore should enjoy her pay too.”

Actress, Yvonne Jegede calls out her ex-husband, Kunle Fawole, for neglecting their son (video)

Nollywood actress, Yvonne Jegede, has called out her ex-husband, Kunle Fawole, otherwise known as Abounce, for neglecting their son, Xavier, since his birth.

The actress, who married her now-ex-husband, Abounce, in February 2017 and welcomed a son with him in November of that year, accused him of being a deadbeat dad who has never made an effort to see his child or speak to him.

Speaking in a recent interview with actress, Mercy Johnson-Okojie, Yvonne said Kunle only came around to acknowledge their son when she threatened that she would remove his surname from Xavier’s name if he didn’t show up.

She said she had to insist that their son bear her and his father’s surnames, Jegede-Fawole, because she was the one who suffered so much and cleared her account to go to America to birth him.

“Since that they, he has never come to the house, he has never called. His son turned one, no call, no text message to say Happy birthday”, Yvonne said

Yvonne said recently Xavier started asking for his father, so she reached out to Kunle’s older brother to inform him that Xavier was asking for his father and that he should help get Kunle to please come around to see his son, but the response she got was not encouraging.

“Your gift is in my hand yet you don’t care. You see, one moment I dreaded the most is for my child to wake up one day and ask where is my father and it has started happening. One day when he asked, I had to send messages to his siblings to ask him to come and check up on him but it yielded no result.

It was so bad that my father had to represent my son at school for a father’s day event they recently had. It was embarrassing for me but I’m waiting to see when he will show up or if he wouldn’t till the boy turns 18.” She said.

Yvonne Jegede, who revealed that she and her ex-husband, Kunle, were best friends before they tied the knot, said what led to the crash of their marriage was not really worth it.

However, if she had stayed in the marriage just because of the fear of what people would say, she would have been unhappy.

“We don’t talk. He doesn’t come around, he doesn’t call, he doesn’t do nothing. I don’t know what it is that could cause a friendship… because apart from the marriage, we had a good, very solid friendship. I think I still look at that friendship and believe this thing wey we dey experience now, we no suppose to, at least that friendship wey we get supposed to cover up for somethings. He no dey call.” She said.

Nollywood actress, Dorcas Shola Fapson, better known as Ms DSF, has thrown a shade at her ex-lover, singer Skiibii, after he showed off his latest acquisition, a Mercedes Maybach.

“You get sense die”, she wrote.

She also took to her Twitter handle to take a further dig at him.

In one of the videos which captured the romantic moments, the thespian and her man rocked a matching Fendi outfit. Another showed them in a room that was exquisitely adorned with rose petals.

Barely three months after making their relationship public, the pair have broken up and gone their separate ways.

However, Dorcas tool to social media to drop subtle hints about the reason why their relationship packed up.

In a now-deleted tweet, the actress threw jabs at Skiibii for claiming to be rich in his songs whereas he is a broke ass in real life.

Referencing the lyrics of his song ‘Daz how star do’, Dorcas wrote, “Ice on your neck.. ice on your wrist.. no running water in your house.. no food in your fridge… zero money in your account”

A purported chat between Dorcas and a friend where she narrated why she dumped the singer has also been shared online.

In the chat, the 31-year-old Disc Jockey disclosed that she was the one funding their relationship, while Skibii lied and cheated on her without an iota of conscience.

“If you doubt that I’ll one day be a music megastar, God will shock you” – BBNaija star, Whitemoney

Reality TV star turned singer, Hazel Oyeze Onou, popularly known as Whitemoney, has sent a message to those still doubting his potential in the music industry.

The “Selense” star, who stated in 2021 that he expects to win the coveted Grammy award this year, said via his Twitter handle this morning that he has never doubted himself.

He said since he believes so much in himself and his talent in music, anyone who has any reservations about his potential to become a music superstar in the future would be left disappointed.

His words,

”I never doubted myself for one day ,so if you doubt that I WHITEMONEY would one day be a mega superstar in the music industry,God go shock you in Jesus name amen”

Meanwhile, Whitemoney has reacted to criticism trailing his single, Selense.

The multi-talented reality star recently released his first song since he won the reality show, however, it seems Nigerians were not impressed.

A Nigerian journalist, Taiwo Alabi, in an open letter humbly advised him to quit music, while controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu also advised Whitemoney against venturing into music.

Speaking about the reception of his song in a recent interview with Cool Fm, Whitemoney said he has received tons of hate comments from people who tend to compare him to past Big Brother Naija winners.

He reiterated that, contrary to claims that he’s following a trend by going into music, he had been doing music before he went into Big Brother’s house.

“A lot of hate comments, a lot of comparison, they tend to compare with past winners, there’s a trend that says every Big Brother housemate that come out want to go into music but the thing is, I do not want to go into music I have been in music”, he said.

When he was asked to speak prophetically on where he sees his music career next year, he affirmed that by next year he would be a Grammy award winner. Read here.

“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’.

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”
