Uju Anya speaks

The Nigerian professor who sent the world into a frenzy with her tweet about the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth II, has spoken up following her virality.

Uju Anya has been trending on the internet since she posted the now-viral tweet wishing the monarch an excruciating death.

She tweeted, I heard the chief monarch of a thieving raping genocidal empire is finally dying. May her pain be excruciating.”

When a Twitter user cautioned her, she maintained her stance and said, I’m not wishing her dead. She’s dying already. I’m wishing her an agonizingly painful death like the one she caused for millions of people.”

Her statement stirred an uproar on social media, with some, including Amazon founder, Jeff Bezos, criticizing her and demanding that she should be fired by the Carnegie Mellon University where she works.

However, some people declared support for her and said her statement was justified.

Uju has now released a statement addressing the controversy she sparked on social media. She said she’s on the verge of losing her friends, colleagues and associates, especially those from the West, but she won’t let it deter her from speaking her truth.

She said her tweets have started a discourse and encouraged other Africans to also speak up and demand justice.

Meanwhile, it was learnt that Sandra Okagbue, the babymama and alleged wife of the singer, is Bella’s elder sister.

During the chat, Sheggz, who seemed to be aware that his lover is affiliated with the ‘Nwa Baby’ crooner, began quizzing her about the singer.

He inquired if she knows or have met Flavour but she responded in the negative and said she’s only a big fan of the singer.

Bella denies

He then asked if the singer is married, to which she declined to respond.

In 2020, there were speculations that Flavour secretly got married to Sandra Okagbue, the mother of two of his children. However, he has not confirmed or denied the report till date.

In other news, Bella may risk a strike after she spilled food on fellow housemate, Rachel, during an argument last night.

Rachel, who had volunteered to make food for the house, alongside Phyna and Chichi, prepared rice for the entire house last night. However, while she dished the food, Bella seemed not pleased as she insisted she wanted beef while Rachel gave her chicken.

Rachel tried to explain that there were only four beefs in the soup, and people had already told her they wanted it before Bella came.

This ticked off Bella’s lover, Sheggz, who lambasted Rachel and said that by now, Rachel should have known his woman’s likes and dislikes.

Sheggz called Rachel stupid, and she retaliated by calling him and his family unprintable names.

In an attempt to defend her lover, Bella returned the food Rachel dished out for her, shoving it in her face, and the food poured, which threw the house into chaos.

Clips from the fight caused a stir online, with many calling for Bella to be sanctioned by Big Brother. Watch here

Nigerian billionaire businessman, Ned Nwoko’s fourth wife, Chante Campbell, has cried out over the alleged maltreatment of her children.

The mother of three, in an Instagram post on Friday, bemoaned the ill-treatment her children are being subjected to as a result of her issues with their father.

Insinuating that her children are being made to suffer the brunt of her marital problems with Nwoko, Campbell asserted that it is improper for him to direct his resentment and anger at her toward their children.

She shared her daughter’s photo on her insta-stories and captioned it,

“Sometimes it hurts to see my kids receive what they don’t deserve cos of me. My issues with you should be with you only not my kids.”

Recall that Laila parted ways with the business mogul in November 2021 and went online to announce that their marriage is over.

At the time, the mother of three wrote,

“Hello Guys, I just want to say that no one has the right to talk about my marriage. Please stop talking about people’s lives and I have divorced him already and nothing between me and him. Anybody following me because of him can unfollow please. Thanks. I’ll block any negative comment.”

Few weeks after she announced news of their separation, Ned Nwoko released a statement where he revealed the real reason why their marriage crashed.

The Delta-born politician said Laila allegedly abandoned their kids in the hotel when they were on vacation in London and went clubbing.

He claimed that she got into a fight with a male clubgoer at the club, and the police got involved in the case. He also claimed she contracted the dreaded coronavirus on her frivolous expedition.

Ned also said she underwent a cosmetic procedure in London without his knowledge and approval, and accused her of playing the victim on social media.

Over eight months after their messy separation, Laila who has been on a long social media hiatus and deleted all her posts, has now apologized to him and his family.

She said her actions were not intentional and she allowed herself listen to outsiders a tad bit much.

“This is my perspective of Phyna. I think she is really a sweet girl but that whole shouting thing. I would ask for voluntary exit. Phyna is annoyingly loud and that blurs my perspective of her”. She said.

Nigerian man suffering from Monkey Pox narrates how he was misdiagnosed by multiple doctors as he talks about the ailment (video)

A Nigerian man diagnosed with Monkeypox disease has shared his experience.

In a video shared on social media, the man who lives in Aba, Abia state, narrated how he was misdiagnosed by some doctors until he went to the Federal Medical Center in the State Capital where a doctor made the right diagnosis of Monkeypox disease.

Watch the video below;

Some information about MonkeyPox culled from the official website of the World Health Organization.

Monkeypox is a viral zoonosis (a virus transmitted to humans from animals) with symptoms similar to those seen in the past in smallpox patients, although it is clinically less severe.

With the eradication of smallpox in 1980 and subsequent cessation of smallpox vaccination, monkeypox has emerged as the most important orthopoxvirus for public health.

Monkeypox primarily occurs in central and west Africa, often in proximity to tropical rainforests, and has been increasingly appearing in urban areas. Animal hosts include a range of rodents and non-human primates.

A 16-year-old South African girl, Ntwanano Hlungwani, has died after she jumped from a moving vehicle.

It was gathered that the teenager jumped from the moving vehicle when the truck driver who gave her a lift refused to stop when he got to her destination.

“The two victims decided to jump off, and they were both injured. They were found lying next to the road by other motorists who informed the police about the incident.

“By the time the police got to the scene, one was in critical condition. Emergency personnel were called to the scene, and both victims were taken to hospital for medical attention. Upon their arrival in hospital, Twanano Hlungwani (16) from Mtititi (Alten) succumbed to her wounds”. Constable Rikhotso said.

“She’s been all over the place since she got married, she should slow down” – Nigerian man asks Chioma Jesus to advise Mercy Chinwo

A Nigerian man has asked popular gospel singer, Chioma Jesus, to advise her colleague Mercy Chinwo to slow down on posting her marriage on social media.

The concerned man, identified as Obieze CIDP, in a Facebook post, alleged that Mercy Chinwo, who recently got married to her husband, Pastor Blessed, has “been all over the place” since her wedding.

This comes after Mercy Chinwo posted a photo of the brand-new SUV her husband gave her for her 31st birthday.

In an apparent reaction, the man in a lengthy post said Mercy is now using her husband’s name, Blessed, in her ministration and that she may soon start giving her husband ‘glory’ instead of God Almighty.

“Dear Chioma Jesus, you’re Mercy Chinwo’s spiritual mother. I want you to advice her to slow down on the social media show off for now. I know she’s still new in the marriage lifestyle so the thing will be shacking her like pamy. She has been almost all over the place ever since she got married I understand that feeling too although I’m still single.

So as a veteran and well experienced woman in the marriage and music lifestyle, Instigate her to slow down as it’s not everybody that is happy for her. Mama the truth is, with the way marriage dey sweet your daughter she fit go sing worldly album o. Hold her o. She’s too happy and it radiates all over her. Judging from her recent ministrations, you could see she’s now infusing her husband’s name. Make she no go share God’s glory with Pastor Blessed o . Na that kind thing dey make God vex o.

I know she has posted the car her husband bought for her but please let her keep other upcoming gifts and blessings on low. The man will buy her house and other stuffs but let her not get too excited with vanity and forget ministry works. The aim is to lead souls to Christ through her singing prowess and grace and not show earthly achievements thereby drawing the attention of many doubters. I hope you understand. To us what she’s doing is good atleast they’re giving us content but then some people are feeling oppressed. If a Davido does what she’s doing it’s okay because he’s a secular artiste but a gospel minister doing it, hmmmm, the narrative will be twisted o. Make dem no say they’re flexing tithe and offering o. A wise is enough for the word”. He wrote.

The movie stars are currently on vacation in Dubai with their friends and colleagues, Ufuoma Dermott and Chioma Akpotha.

At breakfast this morning, Uche was peeling a hard-boiled egg for her seven-year-old son when he suggested a different way of peeling eggs. However, Uche misinterpreted what he said, forcing him to repeat his statement.

Omoni, who witnessed the whole conversation, asked the adorable young champ if he was trying to teach his mother what to do.

“We’d never choose for our kids to be trans because it’s a hard life” – Transgender parents admit as they welcome second child

Transgender parents open

A transgender couple who have both switched gender, Jake and Hannah Graf, have welcomed their second child via surrogacy.

44-year-old Jake was born a biological female before transitioning into a man, while his 35-year-old wife, Hannah, a former Army captain, was born a biological male before she transitioned.

The pair, who got married in 2018 and have two children together – 2-year-old Millie and their newborn Teddie, welcomed their kids using eggs Jake harvested during a pause in his hormone therapy.

 Transgender parents open

Jake in an interview with Dailymail said the eggs were harvested two years before he met Hannah and were fertilized by a sperm donor.

The excited father said, “A father of two! It’s more than I ever imagined. Just saying the words seems beyond my reality.”

 Transgender parents open

“It’s hard to imagine I once doubted this life was possible. There are so many trans people who would love to have a relationship and family like ours. We’re really very lucky,” Hannah added.

Speaking on the struggles of being trans-parents, the couple said they have received death threats from people condemning them for bringing children into the world.

 Transgender parents open

“We’re just normal — not the freaks and weirdos we’re made out to be. People make ill-informed judgments based on prejudices without even talking to us,” Jake said.

The couple said they feel the need to protect their daughters from the hate on the trans community, and said they would not choose for them to be transgenders because it has many downsides.

Jake said:

“We know we have to respect our children’s individuality. But, honestly, we would never choose for them to be trans. It’s a very hard life. You face more hatred and prejudice and it’s vastly more complicated to have a family.

“I think people expect us to have rainbow flags draped all over the house and to be bringing up the kids gender-neutral, which has never occurred to us. I love Millie in pink. She wears it all the time.

“She’s just a child and she loves jumping, playing in the sandpit, picking flowers and painting. We haven’t pushed her in any direction. We’ll just support her in whatever she wants to do.”
