“My dearest” – Actress Caroline Danjuma pens heartfelt note to ex-husband on birthday

November 5, 2022

Popular Nigerian Author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie has revealed that she did not originally set out to be an advocate for feminism.

While speaking at the Women in Management, Business & Public service(WIMBIZ) Conference on Friday, November 4, the writer said that feminism was never in her plans. She explained that seeing how women were oppressed in society influenced her advocacy.

Chimamanda described the pressure society imposes on women who marry late, don’t have children, or leave an abusive marriage.

According to her, judgment from society chokes the greatness that women carry. She urged women to support each other genuinely.

In her words;

“I did not set out to be a feminist icon, but I cannot stand the way women are being abused in the society and I feel like I have a platform that can make a difference, no matter how little.
A woman gathers the courage to leave an abusive marriage, and instead of being comforted and cared for, she’s being oppressed and insulted, even by fellow women. We need to change the narrative.
People don’t need to like you for the stand you take, all that matters is that you can sleep well at night, knowing that you have done and have said the right thing.”
If you’re so judged and oppressed as a woman, you can’t conquer the world and be the best you can be”

former Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, who is now a politician, admitted that she originally planned to become a pastor and that acting was an unexpected opportunity.

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) deputy governorship candidate for Rivers state made this claim in an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo

Tonto Dikeh while speaking on her reason for joining politics revealed that she had ventured into different career paths despite once being a church girl who hoped to become a pastor.

“Most people don’t know this but I’ve been in politics for over 3 years and I work with presidency. The change I want, no one is doing that.
I’m an opportunist with this thing called acting or entertainment. But for God, he has ordained that step already. For me, I was just swimming in a swimming pool.
I mean, I was a church girl going to be a pastor. I was supposed to be a pastor, I still might be. Depending on where God is taking me to,” she said.

“It’s a Christian song inspired by people who don’t want me to worship God” — Singer behind viral song ‘shey you dey whine me’ speaks

November 4, 2022

Austine de Bull, the singer behind trending internet sound ‘shey you dey whine me’, has revealed the inspiration behind the song currently making waves online.

The Ogoni singer from Rivers state, in an interview with The Nation, said he was formerly a drummer before he received the calling to become a gospel singer in 2020.

However, when he told his family and close friends about the calling, they tried to dissuade him because he has no experience with music.

He said he believed in himself and his calling and knew he was supposed to become a Christian singer, so the chorus of the viral song ‘shey you dey whine me’ sprang up from that moment.

His words,

“As a drummer that had no idea or connection with singing, when the call came in 2020 to be a singer it was difficult to me myself because I never know how I will start because I have not done it before I had to discuss with some of my friends about the call to be a singer and they were laughing at me that this one I am a drummer and not a singer I won’t be able to do it so it was somehow to me, so I had to discuss with other neighbors who were still laughing at me so it was somehow because nobody believed in me, they were discouraging me so I was like ‘so they don’t want me to worship God shey Una dey whine me ni’ so that’s where the inspiration came so that’s the inspiration”.

When asked about the genre of his hit single, Austine said it is a Christian song fused with street slang and his local dialect ‘Ogoni‘.

“Yes, it is a Christian song but it is a mixture of a street slang and local dialect which is the Ogoni dialect, it means in English ‘who say make I no praise God shey you dey whine me ni’ and in Ogoni “Mena kon ma le da badi Shey you dey whine mi?” he said.

Speaking on how the song suddenly blew up on social media and became a trending sound, Austine explained that he simply posted a video snippet of the song on TikTok and it went viral.

He said,

“The calling came in 2020 but I never paid attention to it so when it keep coming around until 2022 this year I decided to pay attention to it that’s how it started that I came up with the song. During the video shoot, I did some behind the scenes with my phone camera so I posted it on my TikTok page just to create awareness that something big was coming though I never had any audience it was some people I had on my Tiktok that started posting and that’s how it blew up”

November 4, 2022

A businessman has gifted his employee who worked with him for seventeen years a Mercedes Benz for his loyalty and dedication.

The businessman with Twitter handle @lionofjada took to the microblogging platform to share photos of his employee, whose name he gave as Rowland, posing with his new whip.

He said Rowland stood by him through thick and thin and remained loyal to him throughout his seventeen years of service.

To appreciate him for his loyalty, he decided to buy him a Mercedes Benz to support his next career goal of becoming a driver with a ride-hailing app.

Jada wrote,

“Rowland (Latino) has served me since 2005 and has been the perfect friend, brother and member of staff. Through my darkest days he was always a loyal constant. He bore shame and pain to stand with me. Now he wants to ‘do Uber’

And it’s a Benz he went to point at. I don’t know if he really wants to do business or impress Abuja babes but, either way, he deserves it. Latino met me when I was Director for Igala Movies Association back in ’05’. Through the years, senior people would make mockery of my friendship with him. “Why you go dey carry small boy waka as your friend?”
I always said, “I’d rather a small boy I can trust than big boys who feel insecure.”

When things turned back, Latino never left. He stayed. When others walked out on me, he was steadfast.

He holds a degree in theater arts. He’s done his masters too. Same theater arts. He is a reay chilled guy and can vibe with any kind of person. There is no project I have been involved in since 2005 that he’s not been part of. Once he registers his car now, book rides with him o.”

Davido’s nanny and cook may face charges for negligence over Ifeanyi’s death

November 3, 2022

The two suspects arrested in connection with the death of Davido and his fiancée, Chioma Rowland’s son, Ifeanyi Adeleke, may face charges for negligence.

Yabaleftonline earlier reported that eight domestic staff present at the time of the drowning incident were invited for questioning after which six were released while Davido’s cook and nanny were detained.

New information reaching us is that the two suspects may remain in police custody until they are cleared by an autopsy report.

They might also be charged for negligence because they were directly in charge of Ifeanyi’s welfare while his parents were away.

A credible source said,

“The cook and the nanny were the ones directly with the child, so, they are guilty of negligence until the autopsy is conducted. During investigation, we have suspects, and depending on the case, the suspects may or may not be released.

So far, the family has not objected to the autopsy, but how fast it will be done depends on the hospital. But the next move is to review the CCTV at the house.”

The spokesperson of the Lagos state Police Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, who confirmed the detention of the cook and nanny, refused to give further details about the ongoing investigation.

According to her, it’s unislamic for people to think everyone will get married or have children in their lifetime.

The photographer wrote on Wednesday, November 2, 2022,

“At least five times a month someone must remind me I am over 30 and unmarried hence I will never have ”respect” or ”happiness”. I am not sure what they want me to do? Make a billboard? Highly unIslamic of Muslims to assume everyone that comes to the world will be married or have children. Our destiny is in His hands. Sigh.”

lady prophecy — Black woman frowning with head in hands

A single Nigerian lady who was given a vision of her future husband’s appearance is in a dilemma as none of her suitors matches the man from the prophecy.

According to the lady, her pastor had given a description of her future spouse as revealed to him by God.

However, all the men that have been approaching her for marriage bear no resemblance to the man her pastor described.

She acknowledged that all the men who have been approaching her to ask for her hand in marriage appear sincere and responsible, but her only concern is that they don’t match the prophecy given to her.

The confused woman has now taken to social media to seek advice on whether to accept one of her many suitors or keep waiting for the prophecy to be fulfilled.

“My pastor prophesied how my future husband looks like and what he does but all the men coming my way do not match the prophesy that was given to me and they are all serious and ready for marriage. Please I want to know. Should I choose one of them or wait for the prophesy to come through I am confused”, she wrote.

Controversial Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has said the time has come for him to fulfill his calling as a minister of God.

The thespian, who stated this in a trending video, revealed that many years ago he had a call to serve as a minister of God, but he ignored it because he thought it was not the right time.

Edochie claimed that recently the call intensified, and he’s now convinced that the time for him to heed the call has come.

He said he has come to the realization that God has given him overall prosperity so he may use it to promote the gospel and that the remaining days of his life will be used to achieve that purpose.

He further revealed he will not quit his acting career as a minister of God but will ensure his movies promote God’s word.

“I have a calling to serve God and be his minister of God. I have a calling to be a preacher of God, to preach the word of God through action. I have had this calling a long time ago actually, many years ago,” he said.

“But I always felt the time has not come or the timing wasn’t right. But now, it’s very strong. I feel the time has come. God has blessed me in this life and by the grace of God, I have become one of the biggest and most celebrated actors in Nigeria and Africa.

“I have realised God lifted me as an actor so I can become one of his ministers and use that fame to preach the world of God. My purpose in life is to become a minister of God and touch lives.” He said.

She called on fellow Nigerians to protest against God and declared that the all-knowing God always allows the devil to win.

“God I’m questioning you how can you allow this small boy to die, this boy is an innocent soul, this is too much. Wake this boy up, why are you always allowing the devil to win.” She said in part.

She questioned why God, despite being a miracle worker, ignores the cries of people to bring their deceased loved ones back to life.

Speaking further, she urged Nigerians to join her in protesting against God. Her words; “You people should stand up and question God, let us rally against God, let us protest, how can Ifeanyi be dead?”

She believes that if Nigerians join her in the protest against God, he may decide to bring little Ifeanyi back to life.

Nigerian music producer, Qazebeatz shared how he was unlawfully stopped, delayed, searched, and harassed by the police in Lekki phase one.

According to him, he was on his way back from a concert when he was stopped and accused of fraud because he was not cooperating.

He tried explaining his occupation to the officer but he was harassed and made to pay the sum of 150k naira instead.

He took the micro-blogging platform to demand justice because this was not his first time experiencing such a tragedy.

In his words;

“Good evening sir @BenHundeyin,I hope this meets you well? on the 29th October 2022, I went for a concert at Lekki phase one.
The concert ended about 10:30 PM and l had to drop off some friends at the hotel then headed home.
On my way home, on Admiralty Way I was stopped by police
They asked to search me and I complied, even though I was in a hurry to get home before it was 12am. The officer was being aggressive with his words. And I asked him to not talk to me in that manner and he took it for a challenge.

Other police officers arrived in two cars charging towards me saying I was challenging a police officer I disagreed then he began insulting me and reached for my phone immediately and asked me to open it, instructed 4 armed officers to get into my car and asked me to follow.

I asked “for what”? They accused me of fraud calling me a yahoo boy with no evidence to justify their accusations. They finally got me to the police station in Ikoyi and sent me behind the desk and threatened to lock me up.
They asked me to give them half of what was in my account. In their own words, “50-50”. I told them I needed the money and cannot give it. I’m a music producer and I made this money legit.

They said I was playing with my life so they put me back in the car and drove off again at this point the office was speaking to the other officer in the passenger seat in Hausa language. I understand a bit of Hausa so I could understand what they were saying.

He said this boy has nothing on him but let’s just take the money and let him go. So he requested 200K and I told him it was my rent money so he later settled for 150k. Prior to this I had hidden my ATM cards under the carpet and told him I have no ATM cards.

They said I was lying, searched my car for the cards but they couldn’t find it so they were left with the option of doing a transfer… which is what 1 wanted so I could have evidence. So he made a call after about 30 minutes for an account number to be sent to him.

They made me wait until they got confirmation that money had dropped. When they got confirmation they gave me my car keys and let me go. I said nothing and just drove off. This was at 2am or there about. Apparently they had checked my account balance earlier because they had my phone. They even asked me to open my bank app. The only way they’d let me go is if I gave them money and they meant it. I gave them because I just needed to be out of there… it was morning already.

This is the second time this has happened to me. The first was in 2020 and I’ve had to live with the trauma since only for it to repeat itself in 2022. I have the receipt of the transaction from that night and I demand justice please. Thank you sir.”

Afrobeat musician, Seun Kuti has reacted after some Instagram users accused him of being insensitive over a post he shared while Nigerians were mourning the death of his colleague, Davido’s son, Ifeanyi.

Seun had taken to his Instagram page on Tuesday, November 1, to share a report that reads “Over one in 10 children in Nigeria die before their 5th birthday due to acute hunger-Report”.

His post came shortly after Ifeanyi passed away on Monday, October 31, following a drowning incident in his father’s home in Banana Island, Lagos.

See below,

The post did not sit well with a lot of people who didn’t hesitate to call him out and accuse him of being insensitive since many people, including other celebrities, were mourning Ifeanyi’s death.

According to his critics, although his post is meaningful and points out the reality of many Nigerians, the timing was wrong.

See how some people reacted below,

Reacting to the backlash, Seun, in a video shared on his Instagram page, said he doesn’t have to post a picture of Ifeanyi to show that he is mourning him.

According to him, he would rather pay a visit to Davido to condole with him instead of posting on his page, because majority of those mourning the three-year-old online are hypocrites.

He emphasized that he does not mourn people on social media as that is not his style.

Prospective corps members will now be required to provide fitness certificates from accredited public health facilities at orientation camps around the nation, according to a recent National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) announcement.

The certificate of fitness will become a condition for camp registration and will take effect in the 2022 Batch “C” Orientation Course, according to a statement from NYSC spokesperson Eddy Megwa on Tuesday, November 1.

According to Megwa, the scheme will use the fitness exam to determine the health state of corpers and to filter out those who fake their medical concerns.

In his words,

“In order to avail the credible scheme information on their health status and also protect them from exploitation by unscrupulous persons.

It is pertinent to note that the NYSC Orientation Camp Clinics across the nation are managed by the National Health Insurance Authority with the supervision of consultants from tertiary health institutions.

In view of the regimentation and physical demands of some activities of the NYSC orientation program, the management of the scheme introduced the presentation of a Certificate of Fitness from recognized public health facilities by prospective corps members as a requirement for registration at the orientation camp.

The essence is to enable camp officials to manage those who are not fit to undertake certain activities in the camp. This has been largely misunderstood, leading to extortion of some prospective corps members by fraudulent individuals in their bid to secure such documents some of which may not stand a test of integrity,”

Operatives of the Anambra State Police Command have arrested three suspects for gangraping a 13-year-old girl in Nkpor, Idemili North Local Government Area of the state.

The suspects identified as Sunday, Emelie, Chiedu, and another suspect who is currently at large, are all co-tenants of the victim’s father.

They were picked up after the victim lodged a complaint to the National Agency For Prohibition of Trafficking in Person (NAPTIP).

The victim, a native of Ohaozara in Ebonyi State, who was in tears while narrating her ordeal, said she was defiled by four men but the fourth suspect escaped when security operatives stormed their neighbourhood.

She said they took her to Nkisi river following a fight with her father and took turns to rape her. According to her, she was slapped by the boys before they dragged her to the river where they had carnal knowledge of her.

During interrogation, two of the suspects confessed to the crime and pleaded for forgiveness while the third suspect claimed he didn’t partake in the act and was only present when it occurred. However, the victim insisted that he was the second person who raped her.

The suspects also confessed that they raped the minor because of the altercation they had with her father.
