“Doctors said I could get blind or have brain damage” – Boma recounts life-threatening experience with sinusitis

Big Brother Naija star and actor, Boma Akpore, is grateful to be alive after battling a chronic sinus infection.

In a lengthy Instagram post recounting the life-threatening experience, the reality star stated that he contracted COVID-19 in December 2020, which resulted in a terrible sinus infection.

He revealed he had to undergo surgery because the infection had gotten worse over the years and had blocked half of his right face and nostril and was only breathing from his left nostril.

According to him, doctors had told him that the infection had already spread to the back of his head and he could get blind or have brain damage as the procedure was a head surgery really close to the brain.

Boma had the surgery on May 13; there was a worrisome moment when he didn’t wake up for three and a half hours following the procedure, but thankfully he is now back on his feet.

Recounting the experience, he wrote,

“In 2020 December 2, I caught COVID-19 which led to me to having a terrible sinus infection. Prior to then I have never had any sinus issues for more than 3 days. Then I got extremely busy going from One film set to another in the US, then I came to Nigeria and stayed for another 6 months due to being on big brother naija and other press duties I had to attend.

Afterwards I decided to return home to New York, all these while the sinus issue hasn’t given me any relive almost 1 year after. I decided to see an allergist and between January and March 2021, I have had multiple doctors appointments and test which the scan results came back very unpleasant. Half of my right face/nostril was blocked and I was only breathing from my left nostril. At this stage I wake up with mucus from my right nostril every single day.

At this point , my only option was to have a surgery as recommended by my Doctor. Surgery date was set for April 12. Suddenly I booked a movie role in Nigeria and shooting starts April 8, my team and I decided to postpone the surgery till after the shoot. While I was in Nigeria the reunion date was also set, so I killed both birds with 1 stone. As soon as the last episode was shot I took the next flight back to NYC May 7, to prepare for my surgery May 13.

Doctor said the infection had already spread to the back of my head and I was told I could get blind or have brain damage has it was a head surgery really close to the brain and I got was extremely scared. The surgery started at 6.30am and was due to be done 12pm, but I couldn’t wake up for another 3 1/2 hours, mehnnn, everyone was scared.

I just want everyone to thank God for my life. After 2 months I’m back in the gym, 6th slide was me working out yesterday July 20th 2022 and ready to work again. God is good.

I want to urge everyone to always check in with your doctors when having an usual feeling or sickness. Health is wealth!

PS: The grey area on the scan photo is the blocked part of my Face/Nostril. Big thanks to my friends and loved ones that took care of me when I was sick, May almighty God meet you at your point of needs 🙏🏾”.

“We broke about four windows to rescue him” – Neighbor of man set ablaze by his wife in Osun speaks

Neighbor of man set

A neighbor of the Cairo-based businessman, Bolu Bamidele, who was allegedly set ablaze by his wife, Ife Bamidele, in Osun state for having a child with another woman has spoken up on the incident.

YabaleftOnline reported that Bolu who came to Nigeria from Cairo to celebrate with his wife on her birthday, was set ablaze in their home in Obokun Local Government Area of Osun State, near the state capital, on Sunday, July 17.

 Neighbor of man set

He was rushed to a hospital for medical intervention but sadly died from the burn injuries  on Tuesday.

It was gathered that Ife set him on fire and locked the door against him before fleeing the scene. However, she has officially been declared wanted by the Osun state police command.

 Neighbor of man set

A neighbor of the couple, identified as Gabriel Adejare, has narrated how he discovered that the couple’s apartment was burning after he returned home from work around 7:30pm.

Gabriel who disclosed that he saw Ife walking bare-footed in the community said,

“When I moved closer to my house, I noticed smoke emiting from the house where Ife was staying. I observed for a while, then I realised that the house was on fire.

I rushed to the scene and met Ife’s younger sister, with some elders, in front of the gate. She then informed me that her elder sister and the boyfriend were quarrelling.

While she went out to call elders to help resolve the issue, the house had already been set on fire.

Her sister, Ife, had angrily left the house, locking all the doors, while the fiance was still in his bedroom. Instantly I tried to put off the fire, but I could not. I called for more help in the neighbourhood and we mobilised to extinguish the fire.

We were pouring sands and water on the fire and trying to break in through the window to rescue Bamidele.

We broke about four windows and burglaries before we could get in. We were able to rescue Bamidele from the fire after about 40 minutes.

We found him beside a burnt bed and we rushed him to a nearby hospital and he was referred to Osun State University Teaching Hospital, Osogbo and later referred to Ibadan for treatment.”

“I am not a cousin to Jesus Christ, I have right to sexual feelings” – Actor, Yomi Fabiyi pens open letter to Mo Bimpe over sex for role allegation

Yomi Fabiyi pens

Nollywood actor, Yomi Fabiyi has finally addressed claims that he demanded sex for role from his colleague, Mo Bimpe.

This comes after the actress during a Q&A session revealed that Yomi Fabiyi gave her a choice to either date him or become his enemy, which she chose the former.

Yomi Fabiyi pens

She however noted that the sex for role allegation are not true as he didn’t ask her out until they finished the movie they were both working on.

Well, Yomi Fabiyi has now reacted to her statement in an open letter he shared on his Instagram page on Thursday, July 21.

He said he didn’t have any ill-intention towards Mo Bimpe and wanted her to succeed in the movie-making business but she ruined a lot of things for him out of desperation.

Yomi Fabiyi pens

According to him, there was nothing wrong in him asking her out because it’s normal for an adult to feel attracted to another adult with the intention of pursuing a relationship as he did with her but she made her choice.

Speaking further, Yomi told Mo Bimpe to set the record straight and reveal the people she offered sex for role in the industry.

Read the full letter below,

“Dear Bimpe Oyebade,

I have attached herewith evidence of how conversation started. YOU WERE MY FAN, I HELPED INTO THE MOVIE INDUSTRY without any condition. Clearly you started with LOVE emoji. I don’t deserve any evil from you, it will backfire.

Nobody introduced you to me Bimpe, you never ask to be an actress, you didn’t attend my audition(I have video recording of my audition). I wanted you to succeed, I wished you well. You RUINED many things since the day I gave you this chance. You are too desperate instead of been grateful and patient. YOU CAN’T TEAR ME DOWN, YOU WILL ONLY TRY.

Please remember, from the last day we finished filming AGBEDE MEJI in Dec, 2016 (which to me look like you assumed you have used me because I made it so easy), I NEVER set my eyes on you until Jan 2019(3yrs after), which you produced like 3 or more movies in between using my major CREW behind me.

I NEVER OFFERED YOU or ANY SEX FOR ROLE but it took you many years to speak that truth and when you did, you maneuvered and still want to destroy the LADDER that helped you. If It was sex for role, it means I shagged you to play that LEAD ROLE in the first ever movie that got you noticed.

I will rather appeal to you to be bold enough to CALL YOURSELF OUT, CALL OUT those you offered sex in the industry to get to wherever you are and stop defaming me at any slight opportunity. ENOUGH OF THIS NONSENSE/SOCIAL MEDIA DRAMAS.

I am an adult and it is within my rights to be sexually attracted to any adult provided no force or coercion was involved. I AM NOT A COUSIN TO JESUS CHRIST, I have rights to sexual feelings provided it is within the ambits of the law.

You guys need to stop misleading folks on social media. Know the difference between ASKING SOMEONE OUT and SEXUAL HARRASSMENT. It is one thing to think someone is a flirt and it is another to attach that to crime, common, get sense, MOVE ON.

Don’t give SATAN’S CREDIT to GOD. Whatever you earn out of desperacy, lies, deception, sex for role etc, please state it. Enjoy your turkey and let me eat my pomo. You went South, let me flourish in my West. STOP DEFAMING ME!”

Woman arrested for stealing newborn baby who later died in Ondo

The Ondo State Police Command has arrested a 35-year-old woman, Funmilayo Mogbojuri, for allegedly stealing a newborn baby at Sabo in the Okitipupa Local Government Area of the state.

The command’s spokesperson, SP Funmi Odunlami, who disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, July 20, said the suspect was apprehended in Sagamu, Ogun state, five days after she absconded with the baby.

The suspect, Funmilayo, had earlier stolen a baby from the residence of another woman in Okitipupa in January 2021, but the baby died a few days later, according to the PPRO.

“On 13th July, 2022, one Abass Issah of Arikawe Street, Okitipupa came to the Station and reported that his new born baby was stolen by unknown persons. Discreet investigation by Okitipupa Divisional Policemen led to the arrest of one Funmi Mogbojuri ‘f’ age 35years who absconded with the baby to Makun, Sagamu in Ogun State”.

“During interrogation, she confessed to have absconded with the baby to her husband’s house one Odunayo Ayobami ‘m’, it was also discovered that she stole another baby on the16th of January, 2021, in Okitipupa, took the child to Igbokoda and gave him to one Lucky ‘m’ and said the child died few days later. Investigation is on going.” The statement read.

Funmilayo, who confessed to the crime and pleaded for forgiveness, said she did not understand the spirit that entered her to have committed such an act.

The baby’s mother, Binta Alhassan, described how the event occurred, claiming that the lady abducted the infant while she was taking a bath.

According to Binta, the suspect begged her for a place to stay the night and she consented by offering her a room. However, the next morning, when she was leaving the restroom, she was shocked to discover that the suspect had fled with her child.

Nigerian lady reveals why she dumped her narcissist boyfriend after one week of dating

Nigerian lady reveals

A Nigerian lady has taken to Twitter to reveal why she dumped her narcissist boyfriend after only one week of dating.

In a now-viral post, @Helenchiomaking disclosed that barely a week into their relationship, her boyfriend told her to start addressing him as “Lord”.

She said she found it odd because he was very serious about being called ‘Lord’, but she still continued with the relationship against her better judgement.

However, the straw that broke the camel’s back was when he came to cause a scene at a restaurant while she was on a date with her longtime male friend.

According to her, she broke up with him on the spot, left the restaurant with her male friend and cut off all forms of communication with him.

Read her full post below,

“I had an experience with a guy that I had just agreed to be in a relationship with. One week into the relationship, dude asked me to address him as “lord” I am not even bluffing, I thought he was trying to be funny and I laughed over it. I came back to my senses when he asked me what was funny. I knew from that moment that I have used my hand to bring wahala to myself. The one that broke the camel’s back, was when I was eating out with one of my male pal in a restaurant and The lord of my life called me on phone.

The conversation went like this..
*Phone rings*
Me: Hello

My lord: (Silence)

Me: Hello, are you there? Can you hear, me?

My lord: (Silence)…… (More silence)

Me: (Hangs up)

He calls back…

Me: Hello..

My lord: (Silence)

I was beginning to think it was network until Oga decided to break the breathing competition.

My lord: Is it me you are saying hello to?

Me: What should I have said?

*He hung up*

My friend on the side asked me if I was okay. I explained to him what “my lord” was doing on the phone.

My lord called back, and him being the proper fool that he is, proceeds to ask me if the way I said “Hello” was the way I was supposed to address him. I didn’t even know When I burst out laughing, apparently my laughter aggravated his supposed anger and dude hung up again.

He called back and asked me if I was with a man, I replied yes. He said that was why I was talking to him like that, I kept quiet. He asked me where I was, I told I was in a restaurant, he asked which one, I refuse to disclose. He started ranting. He said I was with another of my boyfriend and I was cheating on him. My friend who was there all along, listening to the back and forth squabbling, asked me to concede our location to him.

In jiffy, dude called me that he was outside the restaurant and that I should come out, I and my friend were done from the restaurant and we both went out. My lord was trying to cause a scene and I wasn’t up for it, my friend who had given us space to talk had to come back And asked what the problem was, my lord, shouted at him to get out. At that point, I knew I was done.

The relationship was barely two weeks and I am already hyperventilating. I told him I was done, that I was so done. Dude started crying, I swear I have never seen anything like It, from roaring like a lion to suddenly crying and professing his love for me. And also saying that all this wouldn’t have happened if I had just responded to him properly when he called.

Only I had to leave with my friend immediately, when in my friend’s car, I deleted Mr lord’s number blocked him on all social media platforms, broke my sim card, and used my friend’s phone to call my brother, I explained to my brother what had just happened and he reassured me I was going to be fine, and me to call him if any other issue arises.

Honestly, I Was terrified, and visibly shaking. I thought Mr lord was going to hurt me or come look for me, but that didn’t happen, and for that I am forever grateful.

What a life!

Tems credited

The “Essence” crooner who has been doing exploits on the global stage has now worked with America’s finest singers, Beyonce and Future.

Beyonce, a 28th-time Grammy Award winner, while unveiling the album tracklist on her Instagram page wrote,

“I despise motherhood. I will not recommend it to anyone” – Mum declares as she shares her experience

A mother of one has declared that she hates motherhood and would not recommend it to any woman as she shares her experience.

In a Facebook post, the young mum identified as Nicole Powell said if she knew then what she knows now, she would never have had a child, and surprisingly, many other mothers agreed with her.

According to her, before being a mother, women should try to understand and know themselves. She noted that if she had taken her time to truly understand herself, she would never have considered being a mother.

She vowed never to go that route again while reiterating that she loves her freedom.

She noted, however, that now that her toddler is here, she is doing everything possible to give her a wonderful life and raise her to be a well-rounded adult.

“If I would have known what I know now, motherhood would have NEVER been on the table for me. I despise motherhood. I hate my sleep has been interrupted for two years. I hate cooking in the evenings (I hate to cook). I hate finding snacks, and making bottles, and changing diarrhea diapers consistently for 15 hours straight (this was my Saturday).

Being a mother is not aligned with my souls purpose. And THAT is why, before we have children it is important to get to know self. If I would have taken the time to truly understand who I am, and the things that bring me joy, being a mother would have easily been taking off the table. It baffles me how women can sit up and have multiple kids by multiple men knowing damn well they hate that shit. Ain’t no baby cute enough, sweet enough, pure enough for me to do it again. I enjoy my freedom wayyyyyy to much.

Now, she’s here and I’m going to stick beside her. Because I’ve chosen to take on this task I have put my feelings of being a misaligned mother to the side to give her optimal life and the best wellbeing possible. My only goal at this point is to raise a high vibrational child into an adult so she can help assist to raise the collective conciousness of this world. I’ve also in-listed a bomb ass tribe that picks up where I leave off. I am grateful for her dad and the things that he is able to do as well.

I would not recommend motherhood I give it 1 star. And I definitely don’t recommend it to people that are in trauma bonds hoping that it will hold some shit together which I would guess happens to be 80% of our population. Close your legs, and go within before you decide to have a child or you will only continue to reproduce your traumas and low vibrational frequencies into this universe.” She wrote.

Man accused of killing his wife while they were on honeymoon in Fiji

Man accused

A man from Tennessee, United States, Bradley Dawson, has been arrested in connection with the murder of his wife at a luxury Fijian resort.

The lifeless body of his 38-year-old wife, Christe Chen, was found at the Turtle Island Resort, a private getaway in the Yasawa Islands that hosts 14 couples at a time.

Man accused

The couple got married in February and were on the Island for their honeymoon when the incident occurred on July 9. However, the cause of her death is still unclear.

Bradley became the prime suspect in his wife’s murder because he was nowhere to be found when the body of his deceased wife was found by Fiji’s police.

Man accused

He was eventually caught and taken into custody by the police who claimed he was uncooperative and refused to carry out forensic tests.

Bradley has now been charged to court on one count of murder and appeared before Magistrate, Sekonaia Vodokisolomone, at a High Court in Fiji’s second largest island Lautoka on July 19.

Magistrate Vodokisolomone in giving her judgement, said the accused committed an ‘indictable offence’ and transferred the case.

It was gathered that the deceased was a Pharmacist at Krogers and her husband is an IT professional for Youth Villages, a non-profit that helps children.

Reacting to the incident, Bradley’s employer, Youth Village, sent their condolence to the deceased family and disclosed that they have suspended him till further notice.

“Bradley Dawson was an IT professional at Youth Villages. He has been suspended pending further information. It is our understanding Ms Chen was his wife, and our condolences go out to her family,” said Youth Villages in a statement.

Woman who had been posting about her divorce fears is killed by her estranged husband in murder-suicide

A 29-year-old woman, identified as Sania Khan, has been reportedly shot to death by her estranged husband, who then took his own life.

According to reports, Sania Khan, who had been open about their ongoing divorce and wanted to be a voice for women going through similar situations, was killed by her estranged husband inside her Streeterville condominium on Monday, July 18.

Her bio reads: “photographer, going through a divorce/healing.”

In one of her videos, she spoke about the stigma divorced women face in her culture and how her family members tried to force her to stay in the marriage.

In her words,

“My family members told me if i left my husband I would be letting shaytan win, that if I move back to my hometown they’ll kill themselves.”

Khan was shot and died inside her condo on July 18 at 211 E. Ohio St. at the Grand Ohio condominium complex. According to sources, her ex-husband flew from Georgia to Chicago, shot Khan and then committed suicide.

Friends of the deceased have taken to various social media platforms to express outrage that no one could protect her despite making it clear that her ex was toxic.

“My friend was someone who took all the right steps. She left. She had a restraining order. She changed her locks. It’s very tragic, because she did what she could in her control”, One of Khan’s friends wrote on Facebook.

“Even right at the hospital, they couldn’t tell my gender. They will be like, is this a male or this is female? They have to unwrap me and take me all around for them to see that oh, this one has a penis oo!

“I always felt like I was living somebody else’s life. Kojo Besia… Obaaberima… It got to some point I owned it. So when you call me Kojo Besia, Obaa Berima, I’m like, ‘hello, hi’. I just owned it. I am popularly known as Angel Maxine, and I’m Ghana’s first openly transgender musician.”

She further stated that the LGBTQ movement is not an imported idea as she was effeminate from birth.

Police launch

The Osun State Police Command has launched a manhunt for the wife, Ifeoluwa Bamidele, who set her husband, Bolu, on fire for allegedly having a child outside wedlock.

It was earlier reported that the Cairo-based man came to Nigeria to spend time with his wife on her birthday but things went south after she discovered that he has a child with another woman.

Police launch

She threatened to kill him and commit suicide before day breaks in a post she shared on her WhatsApp status.

The message reads,

“I’ve always been a calm girl and I have never done this in my life but Teebam (her husband) has pushed me to the edge. At this point, y’all will weep over myself and him before daybreak. I’m promising y’all that.”

Police launch

A fight reportedly ensued between the couple and she demanded to check through his phone to confirm her suspicion but he refused.

She reportedly set him ablaze after locking the door and all efforts to save him by neighbours proved abortive, and it took hours for them to gain access into the house.

Ife fled the scene and it was believed that she took her own life after committing the dastardly act but family members said there’s no proof that she did so.

Men of the Osun State Police Command have now begun a search for the young lady and assured that she would be arrested and brought to book.

Confirming the incident, Spokesperson of the command, SP Yemisi Opalola, gave a detailed account of what transpired and said the incident took place at the couple’s residence in Koka community, Ibokun Local Government Area of the state on Sunday, July 17.

“At about 11:30pm, one Bolu, was allegedly set ablaze by his wife. The victim was rushed to the Osogbo Central Hospital where he was referred to the University College Hospital, Ibadan (UCH) for better treatment,” she stated.

“It is unfortunate that the man eventually died around 4.00 pm on Tuesday in the hospital,” SP Opalola added.

“I am coming close to death, my expiration date is coming close” – Mike Tyson (Video)

American former professional boxer, Mike Tyson has said that he believes that he is getting closer to his death.

The 56-year-old former heavyweight champion, while speaking on his podcast, “Hotboxin’ with Mike Tyson,” told trauma and addiction therapist Sean McFarland he feels his time is almost up.

“We’re all gonna die one day of course,” Tyson said. “Then, when I look in the mirror, I see those little spots on my face, I say, ‘Wow. That means my expiration date is coming close, really soon.” He said.

Speaking further, the boxing legend said he doesn’t believe money brings the happiness and security that many associate with it.

In his words,

“Money don’t mean s**t to me. I always tell people, they think money’s gonna make them happy, they’ve never had money before, when you have a lot of money, you can’t expect nobody to love you. How am I gonna confess my love to you when you have 500 billion dollars? The false sense of security. You believe nothing can happen. You don’t believe the banks could collapse. You believe that you’re invincible when you have a lot of money, which isn’t true. That’s why I always say money is a false sense of security.”

Man attacks his son with a machete over witchcraft allegation in Akwa Ibom

Man attacks

A young boy has been rescued by a Danish aid worker, Anja Ringgren Lovén, and her team after he was almost killed by his father over witchcraft allegation in Akwa Ibom.

Taking to her Facebook page on Wednesday, July 20, Lovén disclosed that the boy was almost hacked to death by his father who accused him of being a witch.

Man attacks

She said he had been living in the bushes for months to hide from his father and was living off the meals he received from an old woman.

However, when the director of her orphanage facility received a distress call about the boy’s condition, they immediately sprung into action and rescued him from the bushes.

The young boy who was left with a large scar on his head after the incident, is now safe and living in the facility called ‘Land of Hope’.

Read her full post below,

“A week ago, Land of Hope Director of Child Development Nsidibe Orok got an emergency call to rescue a child in a local community.”

“A little boy was accused of being a witch and the father had tried to kill him by cutting him on the head with a machete.

“When Orok came to the village he found the boy inside a bush. He was living in the bushes to hide from the father. He has been living in the bushes for many months and only survived because an old woman, who he was not even related to, gave him food sometimes.

Man attacks

“This is a case of severe child abuse and how ironic that the boy was wearing a t-shirt with LOVE printed on it considering his inhumane condition.

“Before the boy was abandoned his father use to torture him. His mother died when he was young and the step mother did not like him.

“Today Orok and I had a little session with the boy and we saw a little smile on his face for the first time. His name is Samuel and he is now safe at Land of Hope.

“He has only been here for a week and he is still traumatized but I can assure you that he has already felt the true meaning of the word LOVE”

Lovely reactions as lady tells people in good marriages to share their stories

lady tells people

A Nigerian lady has sparked lovely responses on Twitter after she asked people in blissful marriages to share their stories.

According to @chiiogbu, people in good marriages should be more open with their beautiful stories because bad stories of marriages have taken the center stage on social media.

She said a lot of single folks, like herself, are no longer interested in getting married because of the terrible marriage stories they read online.

“I need people in genuinely happy marriages to normalize sharing advice and their cute stories because their colleagues in toxic marriages overshare thereby making it look very unappealing to us singles.

We need balance plsss”

lady tells people

Her tweet quickly garnered traction on social media and some couples came out to share their lovely stories and how sweet their marriages have been.

However, some others stated that they can’t share their stories for fear of attracting evil eyes and whatnot into their homes.

See how some reacted below,

One Nonso Dimgba wrote, “Marriage is very good and sweet, 9yrs this year in marriage and people still think am single when I’m done with child birth….

One factor that causes toxic marriage is PRIDE and it eventually leads to irreconcilable issues..”

@theellageorge wrote, “This post made me kinda sad, because I’m guilty of being silent about my marriage. Some friends have asked me to be open but I can’t. The truth will sound like a lie or exaggeration. Even after 8 years, I still find myself at random times, thanking God for my good fortune.”

@zcej_ wrote, “I fit share am finish, devil go come pour sand sand inside my garri. Abeg oo”

@ammielv wrote, “My husband is a great guy.. it really is the little things. He is patient, He is kind, He encourages me to bring the best of me to everything & even when there’s any issue, we don’t go to bed upset with each other. We forgive each other more, He’s legit my best friend”

@amocoboy1 wrote, “This is my 12th year in marriage to my lovely, reserved, godly,but stubborn wife and beautiful children.
The family life has become normal to me: love for my wife, patience, tolerance,trust, hard work , discipline. It gets better day by day and also comes with its challenge too”
