“I started fighting with God after everything stopped working for me” – Female drummer, Ara.

Nigeria’s leading female talking drummer, Aralola Olumuyiwa a.k.a Ara has revealed how everything went awry for her shortly after gaining fame.

The drummer claims that this occurred years after a family friend told her about a dream he had about her.


Ara admitted that when nothing continued to go her way, she began to battle God. She also talked about spending over a year in a single hotel room.

She went on to say that once she cried out to God and asked him what he wanted her to do, things started to get better.

In her words;

“In 1999, a photographer to a family friend who was very close to us came running to my place one afternoon. Then I was still in my parent’s house at Ajao estate, he lived in Mafoluku. I was sleeping. My mother told them to wake me and that photo wants to see me. That he is from Bayelsa. I went. He said, Lola, I dey dream o. I dream and I see you this afternoon. God bring your picture come do am like this for my face, say go and look for my daughter, tell her to serve me, to seek me everything she wants, I will give her. If she does not serve me, if she does not seek me, she will see paper and call it money on the floor. And it happened to me. I thought it was a joke.
All of a sudden everything stopped working. People that would call for shows all of a sudden, everything stopped. Shows that I get paid N3m is what people would be pricing for N100,000. To cut the long story short, I became homeless, I couldn’t afford to feed, couldn’t pay my child’s school fees, I sold all of my cars, sold my hummer jeep, Hilux, things started going bad. It got to a stage where I said this must be the hand of God. Something is wrong. I went for prayers and I was told that nobody is fighting me, that this is God. Listen to him. He wants to use you for something but you are not listening to him. I said okay but you know we are stubborn. I started fighting God, I suffered the more. For almost one year, I lived in one room in a hotel. This is in 2019. But you see the day I cried like the prodigal son, I said, God this is me, whatever you want to do with me, you made me, you moulded me, please, forgive me, I have come back to you. What do you want me to do?
When things started happening to me, when I went through that process of from hero to zero, I remembered that dream. Meanwhile, I have dumped this project. I went back to God to say that the people that would help me is You. It is not how talented, connected or how popular I am now, it is You. If this is your hand God, bring the people. The day the governor called me, I nearly entered the gutter. I said this is God. Let me share something. The day I received the endorsement letter on December 22, I took that letter and I was going home to share with my younger brother. I got home, opened the envelope, there was no letter there. It disappeared.
Till today, I don’t know where it disappeared to. I didn’t go anywhere. I called the ministry to ask if I left it, they said I didn’t because I folded it and kept it. We thoroughly searched for it. Meanwhile, I told the DG that it has taken almost 10 years to get the letter from Lagos state. He asked what happened, I told him it was spiritual that he cannot understand. When I didn’t find that letter I called him back and said sir, I can’t find that letter. He said that is the only original copy they did that they only have photocopies. I told him not to worry that I would work with it, that he should please give it to me. But before 11pm, he called me back. I had said to God if it is you, you would do something again. Before 11pm, they called me again to say they were able to get the honourable commissioner to sign another original. I got it back. Today the honourable commissioner is here. I did not meet him one on one until a few weeks ago in his office.”

“Why I will comfortably date a rich cheating partner” – Actress Ruth Eze

Popular Nollywood actress, Ruth Eze, has stated that she would rather have a rich partner who cheats on her than go into a relationship with a poor man.

The thespian made this assertion in a recent interview with Punch’s Saturday Beats. According to her, regardless of how much a man loves a woman it’s natural for him to try out other women.

She said since all men cheat it’s better to be with a rich partner.

“I will comfortably go for a rich cheating partner, because the poor one would also cheat on me. The way men like different soups is how they like different women. The truth is that there is one particular soup a man likes very much. But, that does not mean they won’t test other soups. If one know that, as a woman, one would know peace.” She said.

Just recently, Ruth Eze stated that she cannot leave a man on the basis of infidelity because she believes all men cheat.

Speaking in an interview with Saturday Sun where she shared her thoughts about domestic violence in marriage and her reaction to men who cheat on their partners, Eze said till date she believes the words of her late father that all men are polygamous, including clerics.

“My late father told me that men are polygamous in nature but if you are lucky, you will find the one that will not rub it on your face. If I catch him cheating, it’s okay. We will sit down and talk about it because to be very honest with you, every man in this world cheats even; Pastors, Reverend Fathers too.” She said.

“In Laosun, I have raped nine girls. Some of them are 19 or 25 years, in the night, I will go into their rooms and start sleeping with them. I do not use gun or knives to threaten them. Sometimes I would be caught and they would beat me and leave me. I have been arrested before. I was arrested for stealing 25 litres of palm oil. I wanted to gather money to use it to buy phone.

“I spent N1m sleeping with prostitutes everyday for one month” – Kidnap suspect says

Operatives of the Intelligence Response Team of the Nigeria Police Force Intelligence Bureau FIB-IRT, have arrested four suspected members of a kidnap gang that abducted the wife of a popular Rivers-based businessman, Mrs Hussana Adamu, eight months ago.

The victim, Mrs. Hussana Adamu, was on her way to drop her children at school in April when she was abducted near the Casablanca Club, Government Reserved Area, Port Harcourt, and Rivers State.

She was released a week later after a N20 million ransom was paid. 

The police were later able to arrest four of the suspects, identified as Isiaka Hamidu, 30, who hails from Adamawa State; Nwasaneo Goodluck, 34; Victor Nwidee, 29; and ThankGod Bariledun, 36, all from the Khana Local Government Area of Rivers State.

One of the suspects, Isiaka Hamidu, while being paraded, claimed to have lavished his one-million naira share of the ransom on prostitutes.

“I used N1 million out of it to f*** ashawo( commercial sex workers). I lodged in a hotel , invited prostitutes every night for one month. I slept with at least two ashawos every night for one month and I paid them N20,000 each. I used the remaining N300,000 to plant corn in the village”, he said.

Hamidu, who claimed this was his first time indulging in kidnapping, said he invited other members of the syndicate to abduct Mrs. Adamu to avenge an alleged ill-treatment of his younger brother by her husband, Musa Ahmad.

His words,

“One of my brothers worked for Alhaji Musa Ahmad, for 11 years. When he left to get married, all Alhaji Ahmad could pay my brother was N250,000. I was not happy with him because everyone knew he was very rich and could afford more than that. I decided to kidnap him or any member of his family. I contacted Goodluck, a long-time friend and told him about the situation. He was also angry and bought my kidnap idea.

On his part, Goodluck, a graduate of Abia State Polytechnic, Aba, admitted to having collected N5.5 million from the leader of the gang after ransom was paid.

“Out of it, I took N2 million, gave Isiaka N1.3 million while Victor got N500,000.” He said.

Another suspect, ThankGod, claimed he had no idea that members of the gang were into kidnapping. He said he was contacted to use his vehicle to convey them to a place in the Bori Khana Local Government Area of the state after the kidnapping.

“Leader of the gang told me to take him somewhere in my car. On the way I picked three other friends of his . From there, he directed me to where it was later discovered to be close to the victim’s house, where they kidnapped her and directed me to their hideout . That was when I knew they were kidnappers”, he said.

The fourth suspect, Victor, stated that his role was to monitor the victim’s movement and relate same to other members of the gang who were waiting patiently for the appropriate time to strike.

Speaking further, he admitted to having collected N500,000 from Goodluck as his share of the ransom, revealing that he used the largesse to repair his Toyota Corolla car.

“If you are called Mummy’s Boy, please wear it with pride.” – Nigerian man.

A Nigerian man has taken to social media to give a breakdown of what it means to be a ‘Mommy’s boy’ and why men should be happy to be referred to as such.

In a lengthy piece, the man known as Sir Dickson explained why men should wear the title with pride, following the exchange between Steff and Burnaboy.

According to him, having your mother in your business came from a place of trust and security and it was a recipe for success.

He wrote;

“Mummy’s Boy” is a victim of the Feminism curse. When feminists do toxic and senseless things they do it under guise of feminism. When you call them out, others say they are not real feminists/you don’t know what feminism is.

If you have grown to trust a person’s judgement for a large part of your life, it is not inconceivable that such a person will still be trusted even in marriage – even though that person is your mother.

Trust is earned and the implication that the person you marry has to be the one you trust most is not realistic. Many times, the ones we choose are the ones we arm to destroy us the most and this happens a lot. The biggest love and security comes from your mother.

Moving on, your friends do not have a problem with you involving your mom in everything if you trust her, nobody has a problem is this is between a girl and her dad or a girl and her mom or a guy and the dad.

The fact that this problem arises only in a Guy – Mother relationship has no bearing on lack of maturity or growth but on the fact that women are uncomfortable with a man that is too close to the mother.

Newmarket is a Daddy’s boy snd rhe mother doesn’t even fight it. The father has been close to him since he was a child and is his confidant in everything from personal to professional. Now he manages all his affairs because he is the one Neymar trusts. Not one soul has a problem

There are footballers whose mom play that role – especially South Americans like Jesus and Chicarito to mention a few. She even lives with them. You can put up any argument but I’ve not seen a mother divert her son’s wealth to herself either by crook or legal means.

But I can list 10 players off the top of my head who went bankrupt because the wife they trusted with everything divorced snd took all their money or diverted his money through crooked means after trusting her to manage his affairs.

The point here is not to sat that you should not trust your woman. The point is that trust is earned and people do not lose their trusted position just because someone is married to you. It is not easy to find someone to trust that much and when it is family, it is a blessing.
If your mother’s guidance and advice protects you and keeps you safe, it doesn’t matter if you are 40, maintain that your close relationship. Not everyone has that. Don’t throw yours away. It is not a flex. You’ll always be a child to your mother anyway.

Back to the definition of what is mummy’s boy and what isn’t, you people.need to drop the dishonesty and wake up. Replace mom with senior sister and it is still a problem. It is never a problem with senior brother.

The problem is that women do not want you trusting another woman that isn’t her – even if it is family. It has nothing to do with maturity. You’re not immature for trusting the women in your family with your affair.

If you are called Mummy’s Boy, please wear it with pride. It is a privilege denied many. You are a lucky one.

Blaqbonez reveals

Nigerian rapper, Emeka Akumefule popularly known as Blaqbonez, has revealed that he stopped watching people’s Instagram and Snapchat stories four years ago.

Taking to his Twitter page on Friday, November 11, the 26-year-old rapper explained that he stopped watching people’s stories because they always made him feel less of himself.

 Blaqbonez reveals

According to the ‘Back to uni’ crooner, everyone seemed to have a perfect life on social media and it made him feel inferior. In order to curb those feelings, he stopped viewing people’s IG and Snapchat stories completely.

He tweeted:

“4 years ago I stopped watching people’s IG & snapchat stories, because it always made me feel less of myself, people always seemed to have this perfect life, i told myself I won’t let then tension me. I still don’t watch people’s stories.”

A while back, Blaqbonez took to Twitter to address those who are always quick to say ‘it’s summer, we outside’ while in Nigeria.

According to the “NOVACANE” rapper, they are copying western culture without shame and they are hyped about summer outside Nigeria.

“My DM is full of people sending me their bills” – Skit Maker, Ashmusy cries out, dismisses ‘N2M per day’ claim as a joke

Skit maker, Ashmusy, has finally admitted that her initial claim of spending N2 million daily was exaggerated, as she laments how many people have approached her for financial assistance since her post went viral.

The internet personality made the news on Thursday after she claimed in a social media post that she spends at least N2 million a day solving her life problems.

Her claim generated massive reactions from social media users, the majority of whom accused her of living a fake life.

She later provided a breakdown of her daily expenditures, which eventually add up to that massive sum, and stated that low-income people cannot relate to her lifestyle.

However, in an updated post moments ago, as Nigerians continued to drag her across various social media platforms, Ashmusy stated that her initial claim of spending N2 million per day was simply a hyperbole, but Nigerians didn’t get the joke.

She said since she made the claim, she has received tons of messages from people begging her for financial assistance, blocking important business messages.

“Please it’s enough honestly, My dm is just full of people sending me their bills since I spend 2m daily .. Whay manner of illiteracy is this ?? You don’t know what hyperbole is??? Or you don’t have enough humor to recognize a joke or understand the statement ?

Una leave message wey I Dey try pass go dey twist my words to something else, I wanted to totally ignore sef but the dms are crazy, blocking important business messages , stop that nonsense, I’m a business woman and don’t have time for your rubbish pls. Any single more dm I see concerning that nonsense , I’ll block you immediately and delete your life out of my dm.. you too rest”. She wrote.
