Angel shares

Angel, the wife of Big Brother Naija ‘level up’ housemate, Kesiena Tony Adjekpovu a.k.a Kess, has shared an emotional video in pidgin English to solicit the support of fans and viewers of the show.

This comes after her husband, a 28-year-old businessman, was nominated for possible eviction on Monday, August 16.

Angel shares

In the video, Angel said she strongly believes her husband can win the show because he needs the N100 million prize money to build a house for his mom and also take care of their family.

She added that she knows being on the show would expose her husband to different vices which she’s not comfortable with, but she has chosen to support him regardless.

Angel shares

Speaking on the miscarriage she had recently, Angel who said her son died in her arms, said it was a traumatic experience for her because the greatest gift she can give her husband is a child but sadly, she lost the pregnancy.

She said contrary to popular notion that she wants her husband to come home to support her because of the loss of their child, she wants him to remain on the show.

She emphasized that she doesn’t want her husband to be evicted from the show and appealed to netizens to vote for Kess.

Sharing the video on Kess’ official Instagram page, the handler wrote,

“Good morning KessNation..An emotional message from Kess’s wife to everyone out there. Let’s support his dreams and vote him tirelessly

This is to put rest to the narrative that his wife needs him home, She wants him till the end of the game. Lets make her dream come true.”

“I never opened a GodFundMe for my wedding” – Solomon Buchi breaks silence on accusation of being a ‘serial beggar’

Solomon Buchi breaks

Social media personality, Solomon Buchi has finally reacted after being accused of being a ‘serial beggar’.

Over the weekend, the self-acclaimed life coach trended on social media, howbeit for the wrong reasons, after multiple women exposed chats purportedly showing him begging for money and material things.

 Solomon Buchi breaks

He was exposed by aggrieved women who didn’t like a tweet he posted about ‘broke women’, and slammed him for talking down on broke women when he was once broke himself.

It would be recalled that he advised men against dating broke women because they won’t help them grow, but drain them.

Out of annoyance, different women shared old chats showing him begging for money because he was broke.

They also dragged him to filth for opening a Gofundme to sponsor his forthcoming wedding to his heartthrob, Arike.

 Solomon Buchi breaks

Well, Solomon Buchi has now broken his silence in a statement shared on his Twitter page.

He explained that he didn’t open a Gofundme account as claimed, but a cash registry list, which is a common practice among intending couples.

According to him, he opened the cash registry list because some of his followers requested for it, and it’s not compulsory for people to make donations.

Speaking on the chats of him begging for money, Solomon admitted that they are real and not fabricated, but stated that it was a long time ago, between 2015-17.

He said he was broke at the time and asked for financial help from people he trusted, and he didn’t expect them to use it against him now.

“It is sad for the Federal Government to say it does not have money to meet our demand” – ASUU

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) has claimed that the Federal Government has not been sincere with the process of resolving what has led to the lingering strike action.

The union which announced that it would be meeting with representatives of government today August 16, said government’s move to placate its members into calling off the strike with salary increment instead of holistically addressing the issues affecting university education in the country is “unfortunate”.

ASUU President, Emmanuel Osodeke, who featured on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Monday August 15, added that it is sad that the government says it does not have money to meet their demand.

He said;

“The government is not sincere in its dealing with us. This has been the issue all along.

“What we are doing is the sacrifice we have to save this country and its youths. A collapsed university system is a collapsed country and we are almost there. We will not be tired, we will ensure that our university system works.

“We have not heard any serious communication from the government though they have invited us for renegotiation of the 2009 agreement tomorrow (today).

“The issues have to do with funding, structure, autonomy, and how to raise funds for the university system in Nigeria. But the government has reduced the issue to just salary alone.

“If the government has looked at the issues comprehensively, we will not be talking about funding. This government wants to blackmail us with salaries.

“Every university in the world is an autonomous body. You don’t subject the university to public service. This is why we are where we are today.

“The renegotiation started in 2017 when Mr. Wale Babalakin was appointed to chair the talks. We spent more than two years on that.

“That committee eventually collapsed when Babalakin was removed as the Chancellor of the University of Lagos. Another person was appointed.

“Each time a new committee is set up, the first question we ask them is whether they have the mandate to renegotiate the whole agreement with us and they usually answer in the affirmative.

“Imagine since May 2021, we concluded renegotiation and they said they would get back to us. Since then, they didn’t back to us since we started this strike.”

“It is sad for the Federal Government to say it does not have money to meet our demand. If anybody has a will, he or she can get what he wants.

“If the government has the will and believes that education is important, it will raise any amount to fix it.

“This is a government that has given N100 billion for Trader Moni, raised about N200 billion to feed school children? Each of these is more than what we are asking for as revitalisation fund.”

Police officer dragged online for boasting about escaping arrest despite breaking a law because he’s a policeman

Police officer dragged

A police officer is currently receiving heat on social media after he bragged that an FRSC officer changed his mind about arresting him for breaking a road traffic law after realizing he is a policeman.

Taking to Twitter on Tuesday, August 16, Prince Olumuyiwa Adejobi disclosed that he was driving and receiving a call in Abuja, when a road safety officer stopped him and threatened to arrest him for using his phone while driving.

According to him, when the FRSC official heard him giving orders to the DPO in his station, he mellowed and let him go.

He tweeted,

“I was driving today in abuja, and one road safety officer who wanted to arrest me for using phone, heard me instructing the DPO to put one person in d cell, he just saluted me, and passed me.

“This is to say ‘to every rule, there must be an exception to save some situations’. Lol.”

The tweet has now garnered massive reactions on social media, with many criticizing him for boasting about getting away with impunity.

See some reactions below,

Following the backlash, the policeman claimed the incident never happened and he only shared the scenario to test the power of fake news.

He wrote, “It did not even happen, bc i dont drive myself while on duty, except off duty, and road safety officers dont operate beyong 6pm, or max 7pm. I only tested the strength of fake news, and we can see how its spreading like harmattan inferno.”

@youwantawar wrote, “Dear insecure men; your opinion about women and how they dress means nothing.It’s none of your business. Fix your own house before judging someone else’s.”

We were always full of gratitude and we put our absolute trust in Him alone for we were sure it was our destiny written by no one but Him and it shall pass at His appointed time.

However, may this kind of affliction never ever befall us and anyone of you all. May Allah protect us all. May Allah reward you all abundantly and replenish you all in folds.

Thank you all for supporting us and standing beside my sister (mother) Rabi Abubakar Bobbo these 4 and half months while we were in captivity.

Let’s continue to pray for the rest in captivity please. We pray collectively at 2:30-3:00am and I try to still be awake to do same. Do join us.

Hasbunallah wa ni’imal wakil 1000 each and La ilaha illallahu wahdahu la sharika lahu lahul mulku wa lahul hamdu wa huwa ‘ala kulli shay in qadir 1000 each.

For other faiths any prayers to please God and ask that He manifests their safe home coming is equally fine please. Thank you. Thank you.”

Man slumps

A 55-year-old man, Abdulwaheed Lamidi, has died after meeting a lady he met online at City International Motel, Council Bus-Stop in Ikotun, Lagos state.

The 32-year-old lady reportedly travelled from her house in another state to visit Lamidi in Lagos on Saturday, after they met online and began a romantic relationship.

While they were lodged in the motel, things took a drastic turn when Lamidi suddenly slumped in the toilet, prompting the lady to call for help on Sunday morning.

When some employees of the motel rushed into the room, they found Lamidi lying motionless on the ground.

A source who spoke to Punch said,

“The girl said the man wanted to enter the toilet but slumped and fell on the ground. A doctor that works in a hospital close to the motel was called and when the doctor got to the room, he certified the man dead.

“The girl said she came to Lagos to meet the man as he promised to marry her; she came with some property and had the intention of moving into his house to be his live-in lover. Instead of going to the man’s house, they went to the hotel and they were in the room when the girl ran out to call for help because the man slumped.

“So, when people rushed into the room, they found him lying unconscious on the ground. The incident happened around 8.40am on Sunday but the girl arrived from another state on Saturday. The girl said she met the man online and that they had been chatting.”

Lamidi’s corpse has been deposited in a morgue, while the woman, whose name was not revealed, was arrested for interrogation.

Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, said the lady refused to involve her parents in the case.

Hundeyin said;

“We have contacted the deceased’s family and they have shown up. They are applying to just get their corpse. They said they were not interested in any criminal investigation but the command is still considering their application through its legal department.

“A decision is yet to be taken, but the corpse has been deposited in a mortuary. The lady is still in our custody and has declined to give us the contact details of her family because she doesn’t want them to know what happened.”

“If anything happens to me hold Oma Nnadi” – Actress, Chioma Okoye calls out colleague

Nollywood actress, Chioma Okoye notified the public about an undisclosed issue with her colleague, Oma Nnadi.

The actress in a recent Instagram post she shared, revealed that Oma Nnadi should be held responsible should anything happen to her.

Okoye wrote;

If anything happens to ME please you guys should hold @omannadi

A while ago, the Nollywood actress, writer and producer, lambasted women who flaunt their assets without sharing elaborate details on how they got it.

According to the actress, it is heartbreaking that some women flaunt their luxurious lifestyles with a motivational yet ambiguous speech on how one should work hard to get to their level.

She then called for transparency when it comes to showing off on social media.

She wrote,

“It is exceedingly heartbreaking that most Nigerian women flaunt luxurious lifestyles with a confident caption of how you should work hard and the story goes on and on without really telling us the businesses that got them to where they are.

You come out preaching about a sweat on your brow and the assets you’ve been able to acquire without elaborate details of these profitable business or businesses you are wrapped up in.

I know a lot of people will come ranting about how people should mind their businesses and not stick their nose in some other person’s bag, but the truth remains that the very moment you put out your achievements for us to celebrate with you, or as a scheme for motivation, you’ve made it our business and we deserve to know what got you there.

#BBNaija: Eloswag wins Head of House for the week; nominates Chizzy, Daniella, Kess, Pharmsavi, Modella, Amaka and Groovy for possible eviction

He nominated Chizzy because of his anger and not mixing well with level 1 housemates and also for seemingly taking the competition too far.

He nominated Daniella because he feels with the love of her life gone, she won’t really be happy in the house and also because of her strength in the Arena games.

He nominated Kess because he feels he wants to go home and he doesn’t feel free in the house, being a married and all. He sees him as quite laid back.

He nominated Modella because he wants to see where her strength lies in the game.

He nominated Pharmsavi because he wants see his strength as well and also because he hasn’t been put up for eviction before.

He nominated Amaka without a strong reason but he feels she should just be up again.

He nominated Groovy because he think he has some strength outside so he wants to confirm it.

With that, Chizzy, Daniella, Kess, Pharmsavi, Modella, Amaka and Groovy are the housemates who are up for possible eviction this week.

27-year-old man set to marry 74-year-old lover, says she reminds him of his grandmother

A 27-year-old man, Devaughn Aubrey, is set to tie the knot with his 74-year-old lover, Kathi Jenkins, after meeting on an adult hookup site.

She is retired, with four children, 13 grandchildren, 36 great grandchildren, and one great-great grandson.

Narrating how they met, he said,

“We met online. it is a hook up site neither of us were looking for a serious relationship I stumbled on her picture, it was a picture of her breast. I read her profile and messaged her in hopes of a response, she was online too and answered back. I asked for her number and she gave it to me then she immediately asked how big my member is and we talked for a bit that night.”

“Once I got to her house she was waiting for me already in bed and directed me inside her house to her room and I came in her door and saw her, she looked way hotter than her pictures and smelled really sweet and good. She had this silky dark red blouse on with nothing else.

“Thank god I never told her my height. She’s very selective, she’s a size queen that likes tall men and I’m 5ft 7ins so once she saw me in person one of the first things she said was ‘you’re short’ or ‘you’re shorter than I thought‘. She wasn’t mad, she thought I was hot and we met at a hotel room a couple weeks after that and just kept meeting every week until she invited me over for Thanksgiving then we became official I guess.”

Speaking further, Devaughn’s says his family is supportive for the most part, but they thought he was lying about just how old she was until he showed them pictures.

“I told my mother about her when we started dating but she thought I was joking about her age until we spent our birthdays together and showed her our pictures but I’m sure my parents and siblings got the hint that I like older women. I do have friends around Kathi’s age, some are concerned that I might want kids and can’t understand why I would want someone older but they are still supportive.

“Because of our age gap, sometimes people assume that Kathi is rich and that I want all her money, which is not the case at all. Some people do say it’s inappropriate but it’s just right for us.” He said.

According to him, he loves that Kathi reminds him a lot of his grandmother.

His words,

“She is so perfect for me and she is very experienced in life and teaches me a lot. We never fight, can always talk without yelling and I trust her completely. She sings beautifully and she knows a lot of those old songs that remind me of the stuff my grandmother liked and she knows a lot of the artists that my grandmother liked.

“I guess I like how old she is because I like older women or old women regardless if she needs a walker and stuff. I have never been bothered by that.”

Comedian, Mr Macaroni raises alarm over threat to his life for not supporting a particular presidential candidate

Mr Macaroni raises

Popular comedian and activist, Debo Adedayo better known as Mr Macaroni, has revealed that his life is being threatened for not supporting a particular presidential candidate.

Taking to Twitter on Sunday, August 15, the skit maker disclosed that he has been receiving death threats from different quarters, and is being bullied online over his choice of candidate.

He said he was recently confronted and threatened by a woman who accused him of antagonizing a presidential candidate, who was not named, in the presence of his sister and manager.

Mr Macaroni raises

He noted that he is not against any presidential candidate but only wants a candidate that can make Nigeria great again to win the forthcoming election.

Mr Macaroni wrote,

“I went to visit my mother 2 weeks ago. I was giving out money to some people in the neighborhood as I always do anytime I go home. A woman walked up to me and asked why I am against a particular candidate.. I said I am not against anyone. All I want is for a better country.

And that can only happen when we vote in good leaders. The next thing she said is that I should better watch myself because they know where my people live. I asked if that was a threat and she continued saying all sorts. My sister and manager were with me and I have a video!

Mr Macaroni raises

I can go on and on about different threats that I have received from some party members or supporters of a presidential candidate because they somehow believe that I am against their choice. Cyber bullying via different online attacks and tribal propaganda.

There is so much dishonesty going on and it gets worse by the day. But my messaging will never change! Nigerians have suffered enough!!! Look around you and look at the serious challenges we are facing as a people.

There’s no Messiah anywhere! However, to stand a chance for a better Nation come 2023, we must elect the most suitable options to occupy positions of leadership in the country. We must individually analyze these candidates by examining their past records, their current state of mind, their capacity and capability; Vis-à-vis the respective positions they wish to occupy.

Do your research and vote for the right candidates. I rest my case. For now!”
