Man narrates

A Nigerian man, Soltune, has taken to Twitter to narrate how his sister miraculously recovered from Tuberculosis and HIV.

He disclosed that his sister went missing six years ago and didn’t return home until last year when she was dropped off by some people in a frail condition and was diagnosed with Tuberculosis and HIV.

Soltune, a Christian, said he called some of his friends to pray in ‘tongues’ over his sister because he didn’t want to lose her as he lost his father and elder sister.

According to him, his sister would listen to the ‘tongues’ every morning and she gradually started getting better.

One fateful day when she was taken to the hospital for a routine medical check-up, doctors were surprised to see that she was free of both Tuberculosis and HIV.

Read his full post below,

“In this testimony, I am going straight to the point, no too much story. Six years ago my sister (Love) woke up one morning and left the house just like that. Within those years, i lost my dad and immediate elder sister, it was tough for my mom and my siblings, very tough but we kept praying and believing GOD,” he narrated.

“Fast forward, a week after my wedding last year, gbas gbos from left, right and center; the devil came hard this time then i got a message from my eldest sister saying, “some people came to drop off my sister like this, the picture on the left

“I didn’t cry cause there wasn’t any space for weakness anymore; i just realized i can’t let this one slide. I remember during one of my prayer sections at night, I kept shouting “devil you won’t take this one”

“I called some of my friends, sent her picture to them and asked them to send me voice notes of them speaking in tongues as they were led to pray!!! They all did, I edited and put all the rakabah-legehbo-shatayeh together then sent it to my sister and asked her to please put it on repeat in her ears so it could keep playing every morning.

“Weeks later, she started walking and talking then, my eldest sister called me one morning and said “when we got to the hospital, after normal check up, the doctor said, the Tuberculosis have disappeared and it’s not suppose to be so, also, the HIV vanished” Haaa!!!”

“Only GOD can do this things. The picture on the right was taken today today!!! If you’re reading this, trust me as i say this; God is real, trust him with your life, trust him till the very last minute, let your faith do the talking because NA GOD DEY RUN THE MATTER!”

Fast-rising Nigerian singer, Ayra Starr performed at an event recently where she got down from the stage just so she could get close to the energetic crowd.

However, when she was going to get back up to the stage, it took the strength and bravery of a security personnel to help her up.

In a video that a number of social media users have deemed cute and adorable, Ayra is seen being lifted by the able-bodied bouncer who carefully lifted her up on the heighted stage, like he was only lifting weights in the gym.

After she gets back on stage, she continues to perform her hit track, “Away” which was one song that threw her into the limelight.

Watch as you scroll,

Ayra recently responded to a troll who slut-shamed her on Twitter.

The Mavin signee had taken to the micro-blogging platform to post a jaw-dropping photo of herself as is her usual fashion and dropped a subtle hint about releasing a new track.

However, the troll decided to share his unsolicited opinion about her and called her an award-winning prostitute.

According to @illelaboyeG, the “Bloody Samaritan” hitmaker has a degree in acting like a cheap call girl.

“Best in doing like ashwo”, the troll wrote.

The tweet caught the attention of the singer who directed the insult back to his mother at home.

“Just like your mom, twins”, she wrote.

Port Harcourt-based pastor

An alleged audio conversation between a Port Harcourt based pastor, identified as Bishop Felix Okpara Duruebube, and a 16-year-old girl he allegedly defiled for a year has surfaced online.

Duruebube, the lead pastor of Mercy House Church International, was recently arrested by men of the Rivers State Police Force for allegedly sexually abusing the minor in his church located in N0.42A road 12 Rumuahulu, Port Harcourt.

The sexual abuse occurred between April 2021 and May 2022, and the clergyman was said to have inserted his penis into the minor’s vagina.

Port Harcourt-based pastor

In December 2021, he allegedly forced the minor to swear an oath not to sleep with another man or tell anyone about the unlawful ‘sexual affair’ otherwise she would run mad and die.

After his arrest, Duruebube was arraigned before a Chief Magistrate’s Court in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, and subsequently remanded in prison after he failed to meet the bail condition.

Well, a disturbing audio recording between Duruebube and his victim, is currently circulating online and he was heard having distasteful conversation with her.

In the audio, he is heard telling the minor to wash her private part thoroughly while taking her bath because it smells.

The minor also mentioned that the pastor’s wife was already suspecting that something was going on between them because she summoned her to ask some questions.

Baby snake found inside a chair at a chilling spot (Video)

There was a bit of panic at a chilling spot recently after a baby snake was found inside one of the holes of a plastic chair at the center.

In a video that was shared online, the snakelet was seen crawled up inside the hole of the chair. A vigilant individual spotted the reptile and made a video of it as he held a flashlight against it so as to see it clearly.

Watch the video as you scroll,

In other news, a 27-year-old Pennsylvanian man, Elliot Senseman, has died days after he was strangled by his 18-foot-long pet boa constrictor.

It was gathered that the long and thick reptile wrapped itself around Elliot’s neck which led to oxygen supply being cut off from his brain.

He was pronounced dead on Sunday, July 24, after suffering from accidental asphyxiation that caused an anoxic brain injury.

The Police speaking on the incident said they received a call from a relative of Senseman on Wednesday, July 20, and went to his home.

When they arrived, they saw him lying on the floor unresponsive with the 18-foot boa constrictor wrapped around his body. The snake’s head was far from his body so they decided to shoot it.

“Our officers responded and shot the snake with hopes of freeing the victim,” Lt Peter Nickischer of the Upper Macungie Township Police said.

The snake did not die immediately and slithered away before it was euthanized.

Lt. Peter said he has never seen anything like that in his 19 years of being in the police force and that the snake was “very long, and very thick.”

Sadly, Senseman passed away four days after the tragic attack.

The grieving mother of the deceased said her son often rescued snakes and was “still working with” the boa constrictor because it was very aggressive.

Bishop Oyedepo says

Popular Nigerian clergyman and founder of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, has once again spoken against the Buhari-led administration.

He attacked the government during a service in his church recently while reacting to the incessant killings in different states in the country, specifically the terrorist attack on a Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo state.

Bishop Oyedepo says

According to the clergymen, Nigerians have never suffered like this in our history and this current administration is proof that when the ‘wicked’ rule, the people will mourn.

He said in part,

“I shouted this in 2015. I am not a propagandist. I am not a public speaker. I am not an activist. I am a prophet.

You blindly brought in this wicked government. Nigerians has never suffered evil like this in our history and they still want to rule? Never!

After over 50 people were slaughtered, there has been no response till now. They are evil from head to toe”

Watch him speak below,

In other news, Oyedepo recently boasted that there hasn’t been a blackout at his church headquarters in Ota, Ogun State, popularly known as Canaanland, in 23 years.

The clergyman said that the church achieved this without the input of the federal, state, or local government.

“Light has never gone off in Canaanland since 1999. We have zero input from any government in Nigeria whether local, state or federal. Not that we collect offering every Sunday to achieve this. We invested resources and have good and very committed people that manage it. We teach the world that you can make your marks by depending on God.

“They don’t use mouth to get power. You invest resources to sustain power. Have we ever raised an offering for power here? Never!” He said.

Young boy angrily tells

A young Nigerian boy who wants a cake for his birthday celebration by all means has told his mother to borrow money from a rich person to buy one for him.

In a video circulating online, the mother confronted her son on her camera while he was doing his assignment, and recounted how he told her earlier to buy him a birthday cake whether she has money or not.

However, the primary one student who was teary-eyed, angrily said she misinterpreted him as he only told her to borrow money from a wealthy fella if she doesn’t have money to get him the cake.

He also mentioned how a woman he knows borrowed money to buy cake for her children on their birthday.

The mother was displeased with the suggestion and rebuked him for advising her to borrow money to gratify his want.

Watch below,

The video has gotten people talking online as they advised the mother to train her son well because he has anger issues.

Veteran singer, Tee Mac

Renowned Nigerian flutist, Tee Mac Omatshola Iseli, has said the presidential flagbearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, is not qualified to become president.

Tee Mac, a one-time president of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN), said this on Facebook while responding to a Facebook user, Yemi Olakitan, who declared support for Tinubu.

Veteran singer, Tee Mac

Taking to the comment section, Tee Mac said Tinubu is his in-law and he knows for a fact that Tinubu is 86, and not 70 as they are claiming.

Giving a final note of warning to Nigerians, Tee Mac said Tinubu is not fit to become the next president and they should choose intelligently in the 2023 election.

He wrote:

“Dear Yemi. Any body can choose any candidate, but an intelligent person will ask himself the question: do I choose rightly! Is the man qualified! Is he honest! Does he tell us the truth about his age, background and how he made his money! Is this man healthy enough at 86 to take up the task of a totally run down country?

“You see Tinubu is my in-law. His wife Remi is my cousin. Her Itsekiri mother and my Itsekiri mother are sisters. I have know Tinubu since the mid 80s personally and even arranged for him to stay in my stepfather’s house ( Sir Mobolaji Bank-Anthony) in London when he went into exile.

“I stopped supporting him and stop family visits etc when he sold that Buhari to the nation in 2015. My advise to the nation is that this man is absolutely not qualified to become our next president. Respectfully Tee Mac Omatshola Iseli.”

Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, has apologized to Nigerians over his recent post that sparked outrage online.

Gbajabiamila came under fire from Nigerians on social media after he took to Twitter to celebrate his “return to class” amid the ongoing ASUU strike.

He shared photo from his class at Harvard Business School and captioned it,

“Back to class. In a leadership course at @Harvard @Kennedy_School. Forget the number of grey hairs one is never too old to learn, broaden or sharpen your skills.”

The politician’s post was widely considered insensitive, and he has now publicly apologised to Nigerians.

He admitted that his decision to post a picture of himself attending a leadership course at Harvard University in the United States of America was insensitive to the plight of Nigerian students in public universities.

He also highlighted some of his efforts to ensure the face-off between lecturers and the federal government is resolved. 

“Yesterday, I posted a picture of myself at the @Harvard @Kennedy_School, undergoing a course. That post was not sensitive to the present feelings of fellow citizens, especially parents and students who are presently bearing the brunt of the ongoing closure of public universities owing to the unresolved issues between the Academic Staff Union of Universities and the Federal Government of Nigeria.

“I apologize for the post at this time, and I hope you will understand that it was not my intention to cause disaffection. As Speaker of @HouseNGR,I have made multiple interventions within the powers of the legislature to avert the ongoing strike. I had direct engagements with ASUU.. relevant government agencies.

“The House of Representatives is still keenly involved in seeking a resolution to the issues so our students can return to school. We all await the outcome of the 2-week ultimatum given for the conclusion of negotiations with ASUU.

“I have long been a champion of public education in Nigeria, and I have consistently advocated programs, policies and investments to improve the quality of public education in the country.

“In my constituency and beyond, I have attracted a new international students hostel in UNILAG, facilitated access to free internet WiFi in ALL public tertiary institutions in Lagos State; provision of modern ICT centers in 24 secondary schools across the state, provision of scholarships and grants to indigent students in selected tertiary institutions, Provision of laptops to ALL secondary school teachers in my constituency and hundreds of students, facilitated the renovation of over 15 public schools in Lagos, facilitated the ongoing construction of the Open University Campus and JAMB CBT Centre in my constituency, facilitated the ongoing construction of School Auditoriums in both LASU and School of Legal Studies, Katsina; facilitated the construction of a public library in Ondo; facilitated the ongoing construction of an emergency care centre for the University of Lagos Teaching Hospital amongst other numerous interventions. In keeping with my passion for education, I regularly take time to teach in some public secondary schools across the country.” He wrote.

Big Brother Naija season 7 housemate, Hermes Chibueze Iyele, has disclosed that he frequently finds himself in police custody despite having committed no crime.

The Level 2 housemate who made this revelation during a conversation with his colleagues claimed that he spends at least four nights a week in police custody. 

According to him, he has been arrested several times by the police due to his hairstyle and piercings. He noted that he is often judged wrongly by people due to his looks but remains undeterred as he projects creativity through them.

In other news, a Nigerian lawyer and activist, Inibehe Effiong has alleged that he was sentenced to one month in prison for ‘doing nothing’.

Taking to Twitter to make this revelation, Effiong said the Chief Judge of Akwa Ibom State, Justice Ekaette Obot, ordered that he should be remanded in prison for one month because he asked that the armed policemen in the courtroom should be sent out because he wasn’t feeling safe.

According to him, this occurred while he was defending a client, one Leo Ekpenyong, in the libel suit filed by Governor Udom Emmanuel.

He tweeted,

“I have just been sent to Uyo prison by the Chief Judge of Akwa Ibom State, Justice Ekaette Obot, for one month for defending Leo Ekpenyong in the libel suit filed by Governor Udom Emmanuel.

The Chief Judge of Akwa Akwa Ibom ordered a Premium Times reporter to leave the court. I said my lord, we were thinking that since the proceeding is public, that members of the public should be allowed to observe the proceeding. My Lord asked me to proceed with cross examination.

I obeyed. I informed the court that I was not feeling comfortable and safe having two armed mobile policemen seated inside the courtroom, that it was strange and that I felt unsafe. I applied for the judge to excuse the armed policemen from the courtroom.

The Hon. Chief Judge then ordered me to step out of the Bar, that she was sending me to prison. She then ordered the policemen to take me to Uyo prison. And that I should be in jail for one month. I am waiting inside the courtroom for them to bring the conviction warrant.

I will be going to the Uyo Correctional Centre now. I have not done anything. I wasn’t even given the opportunity to say anything before the “conviction”. Two lawyers in court appealed to the Hon. Chief Judge but my Lord insisted that I must be jailed.

Meanwhile, there is already a pending application for recusal asking the Hon. Chief Judge, Justice Ekaette Obot, to recuse Himself. We filed it since 23rd June, 2022. The motion is still pending.”

“There is no government in part of the world that solves all the problems in the country. It has never happened” – Femi Adesina

Popular Presidential aide, Femi Adesina, has issued a response to Nigerians who say the Buhari-led administration has failed due to the alarming rate of insecurity in the country,

In an interview with Channels TV on Wednesday evening July 27, The Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity said no government solves all the problems in the country. According to him, it has never happened and it will never happen.

In his words;

”Yes the party (APC) promised that it will secure the country and if you listen to the President everytime, he talks about his three priorities for Nigeria right from his first term, to his second term and now to 10 months to the end of the administration, he would say 1, we would secure the country, 2. revive the econoy, 3. we will fight corruption. Those three still remain as his topmost priorities.

In security, consider the first year in the administration. Was it the same way as it was inherited? No! There was an improvement. In fact, the insurgency was beaten up to the point it was said that Boko Haram has been technically degraded.

But later there was a resurgence. Not only in resurgence, but it also became Hydra-headed. The insurgency was the main problem in 2015, later banditry joined, later kidnapping joined, later kidnapping joined, and later cult killings joined. It became hydra-headed.

So, you don’t begin to say a government has failed for a problem that suddenly spiraled out of control. Security is a challenge. 10 months, one day to the end of the administration anything can still happen. A lot can still happen. You don’t begin to conclude that it has failed on security when its time is not up yet. For all you know, in one week or two months, this problem may be over. It can get done. That is how we should be, positive-minded.

And of course, there are successes in different areas like infrastructure, agriculture, social security, many others.. so you don’t take just one issue and use it to conclude that the government has failed. It is never done. There is no government in part of the world that solves all the problems in the country. It has never happened and it will never happen”

Apostle Johnson Suleman dares

Popular clergyman, Apostle Johnson Suleman has dared the anonymous blogger who accused him of being diabolic and having extramarital affairs with a number of Nollywood actresses to reveal his/her identity.

This comes after the blogger claimed that the clergyman who has previously been entangled in a sex scandal with a Canada-based lady, Stephanie Otobo, is fetish.

It all started when the blogger alleged that actress, Halima Abubakar, developed an unknown ailment after sleeping with the man of God and spent millions of naira on finding a cure.

Halima confirmed the claim in a cryptic post she shared on her Instastory and said if she fully discloses what truly happened, the ‘country will scatter’.

Following the controversy that trailed the allegation, the blogger went on to accuse the pastor of sleeping with several Nollywood actresses at different times.

They also released a long list of actresses, both home and abroad, who have allegedly had sexual relationships with the clergyman.

Some of the actresses including, Georgina Onuoha and Queen Nwokoye, have since come out to debunk the claim.

Apostle Suleman has now responded to the allegation while preaching a sermon in a crusade. He called the faceless blogger a ‘fool’ and challenged them to reveal their identity if they have the guts.

According to him, when he saw the list of actresses he was alleged to have slept with, he wondered how one man could have slept with all of them.

He however noted that he can’t deny his ‘children’ referring to some of the actresses who have at one time or the other visited his church.

A video showing the moment she was presented with the cheque of N400,000 and an all-expense trip has been shared online.

Watch below,

It’s no longer news that fans’ favourite Big Brother Naija season 6 couple Emmanuel and Liquorose are no longer an item.

In last night’s episode of the reunion show, the pair, whose relationship turned sour months after they left the Big Brother house, revealed what led to their split.

Recall that it was earlier reported that Liquorose said she walked into Emmanuel with a woman during their trip to Dubai.

Giving a detailed account of what transpired, Liquorose said she had gone to Emmanuel’s room with the intention of surprising him with food as they were chatting on her way to the room. However, on getting to the door, she kept knocking with no response. She said that after over 15 minutes of waiting, she called Emmanuel to tell him she was at the door. He requested that they meet in her room later.

Liquorose noted that she insisted it was an emergency, so Emmanuel came to open the door and she walked in and met a masked lady in the room.

“We were dating, right? And I walked into you and a girl in Dubai. The light was off, the music was playing, the bed was rough, and the girl was sitting at the edge, and she covered her face with a face mask”. She said in part.

Emmanuel, in his defense, claimed that the woman was a friend who had come to see him. Watch here
