The diplomat was reacting to the outburst by a popular cleric, Fr. Ejike Mbaka, who said the former Anambra State governor will never become the next President of Nigeria because he is “stingy”.
While speaking to members of his church on Wednesday, June 15, Mbaka said a stingy man cannot be Nigeria’s president because Nigerians are hungry and they need a generous man.

During the final episode of the Reunion show that aired on Friday, June 17, the former Mr Nigeria revealed that he never asked Liquorose to be his girlfriend so they were technically not in a relationship.

The presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC), Omoyele Sowore, has explained why he performed poorly in his West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASSCE) after the document sparked controversy after he released it online.
The media personality took to Facebook a few days ago to share snapshots of the documents he submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), which included his WASSCE result, BSc certificate, and birth certificate.
The results Sowole shared showed he failed the majority of the courses he took, with a credit in Mathematics and a pass in Agricultural Science.
The result quickly spread across various social media platforms, and Nigerians were expressing their opinions on his performance.
A Facebook user @Simon Utsu wrote,
“Na wa oh. See Omoyele Sowore waec result. F9 flowing like milk 
& honey 
everywhere. He barely credited Mathematics. Agba Jalingo, na this dangerous result your man wan use rule Nigeria? If I wrote waec from primary school, I would have done better than this. Ha!”
Well, in an updated post explaining the reason for his poor performance, Sowore revealed he took a “second stab at WASCE at a different high school before securing enough credits to gain admission into UNILAG”.
In his words,
“Yesterday I uploaded my education credentials meant to be submitted to INEC Nigeria today as nominations close for Presidential candidates running in the 2023 Presidential Election.
Many have asked why I performed so woefully in my first attempt at the West African Senior School Certificate Examination (WASCE), well, it was how it ended after that first attempt.
I did state that I took a second stab at WASCE at a different high school before securing enough credits to gain admission into the university.
I just couldn’t give up until I made it and got admitted into UNILAG in 1989 to study Geography and Planning. In fact, my late dad demoted me by asking that I go back to “Class 4″ after that woeful result I posted yesterday. After securing admission into UNILAG I had to combine the two results to get matriculated.
I appreciate the engagement provoked by sharing my not-too-good WASCE/GCE result yesterday.
Thanks!”

The ASUU President, Prof Emmanuel Osodeke, in a statement released commended members of the union for not backing down from the strike despite the no work, no pay policy by the Federal government.
The statement reads;
“As the struggle continues, our members are commended for their commitment and steadfastness in the patriotic struggle for the survival of the university system in our country.
Our members are particularly applauded for keeping faith with the union in spite of the hardship imposed on our families as a result of the stoppage of salaries. They have made the statement loud and clear that we are not beggars and, as a result, hunger is an impotent instrument to break our resolve.
Our cast-iron resolve has forced the government to sit down and negotiate with us. We have had five meetings with the Federal Government team and two meetings with the Minister of Education. The renegotiation of the 2009 ASUU-FGN agreement is progressing smoothly and has reached an advanced stage.
However, we must remain focused to the end of this struggle. UTAS (University Transparency and Accountability Solution) has been tested for the third time. So far, NITDA (National Information Technology Development Agency) has tested UTAS and UPS and will start testing IPPIS next week. We are undeterred by the antics of some government officials in this respect.
We are on the threshold of victory. Let us keep faith with the union. A people united can never be defeated.”
The Big Brother Naija reunion show came to a climatic end last night and as expected it had sparks flying with social media reactions after it aired.
One fan had taken to Twitter to ask whether Cross gave Angel’s father money.
The Twitter user with the handle @bidemi_brooke
Cross gave Angels father and mother money?
Angel would have none of that and she took to her page to write;
Are you out of your stupid ass mind??? Don’t try me this evening. My father and your boy did a charity case together and they donated to an orphanage. Cut that bs out.
And let everyone call me angry and defensive; I do not care. Whatever narrative about me can fly but you see my parents? You will not dare label them as beggars.
Y’all better leave my Good man alone; because I will go to war for him.
Angel also used the opportunity to appreciate the organizers of the Reality Show for giving her a platform.
In her words;
Reunion over. Grateful for the platform given @BBNaija @DStvNg and most importantly I’m thankful for the family I got from it. Archangels, no matter how far you all journey to; I will always cherish all of you. Thank you for believing in a flawed girl like me. Yellow forever

The Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, could not contain his emotions as he wept bitterly on Friday at the funeral mass for victims of the terror attack at St Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State.
It would be recalled that it was a black Friday for Nigerians on Sunday, June 5, after gunmen invaded the Catholic church and shot sporadically at worshippers, leaving scores dead and others injured.
The remains of victims who were killed in the attack were laid to rest today, Friday, June 17, with a funeral mass that was held at the Mydas Resort and Hotel, Owo.
Governor Akeredolu and his wife, Chief Betty Anyanwu Akeredolu, were present at the event.
Governor Akeredolu, who wept during his speech, said the government failed to protect the victims of the terror attack.
“We have failed to defend these people. Not because we have not tried, but because these forces on the other side are evil and they have support. They will not triumph over us forever,” He said.
The governor stated that something needs to be done in the country, and that the country’s security architecture needs to be restructured.
“When I see the sea of heads that are here it speaks volumes. What has happened to us in Owo in Ondo state is indescribable. A lot of words are used to qualify it. Dastardly, horrendous. But I still believe there are words to use to describe it but I still short of those words.
“We have just 22 (deceased) in this hall. A few of them have been buried. Because the relatives couldn’t wait till today. But as at the last count, these animals came to the church and murdered 40 people.” Governor Akeredolu added.
However, the Bishop of Ondo Catholic Diocese, Dr. Jude Arogundade, responded quickly, declaring that Akeredolu has not failed to defend his people.
“You didn’t fail. You are a strong soldier. Your determination to protect those who voted you into power is unquestionable. This was done by cowards. You have tried your best.” Bishop Arogundade said.
He thanked the Governor for accepting to designate a memorial park in honour of the victims, stressing that those who created the situation that made the incident happened has bloods on their hands.
Members of the State House of Assembly, led by the Speaker, Rt. Hon. David Bamidele Oleyelogun also attended the service.
Members of the state executive council, led by the Secretary to the State Government, Princess Oladunni Odu, were also present at the funeral mass.
Other dignitaries at the funeral mass included: Former Governor of Ondo State, Dr Olusegun Mimiko; Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Engr. Ade Adetimehin; and Chieftain of the APC , Chief Olusola Oke.
A Nigerian man has shared a screenshot of the message he received from a debtor who has refused to return his money after four years.
Taking to Twitter, the man identified as Richie disclosed that the debtor owed him money for four years before suddenly becoming unreachable and blocking him to prevent him from asking.
He claimed that when the debtor finally unblocked him, he asked for the money, but he flatly refused to return it and challenged him to do his worst.
From the message he shared, the debtor insisted that he had no plans to refund the money as he also had people who were owing him and had refused to pay.
“I cant give you the money”, the debtor said.
When Richie inquired as to why he was refusing to repay the money he had borrowed, the debtor replied,
“I don’t have reason a lot of people are owing me but I don’t act like a lunatic towards them. So I’ve decided that I’ll not give you”.
Sharing the chat, Richie advised his followers to stop lending people money.
According to him, the danger of lending people money is that you tend to lose the friendship and may never get the money back.
“Stop lending money to people. They won’t pay you back… When you lend people money, you tend to lose both the money and friendship”. He tweeted.

A Nigerian lawyer has sparked controversy on social media after saying that landlords cannot unilaterally increase the rent of their tenants.
According to @Egi_Nupe_, both the landlord and tenant must agree for the rent to be increased but if the landlord insists on increasing the rent, the tenant should demand for a quit notice.
He further stated that when the duration of the quit notice expires, only a court order can eject the tenant from the property.
“Your landlord cannot unilaterally increase rent, both of you must agree. If he insists, tell him to serve quit notice. After the expiration, only a court order can eject you from the property,” he tweeted.
However, the tweet sparked mixed reactions online as people opine that he’s wrong and landlords can choose to increase rent without consulting the tenant.
Reacting to the controversy, the lawyer wrote,
“It’s the lawyers capping in the comments section for me. Apparently, most of them are those advising their clients-landlords to disregard tenants’ rights. They issue irregular quit notices, advise landlords to resort to self-help and frustrate tenants.
If not, why is it hard to have an understanding with a tenant before increasing the rent? Why do you want to eject a tenant without quit notice or court order? What does it profit you to lord over tenants and abuse their rights cos you own the house? Terrible much!!!!
The message was clear: agree with your landlord on rent increment. If you don’t agree, then do the proper thing. But you are all in the comment section capping and expecting a detailed syllabus on tenancy law.”

The U.K government has shut down Salvation Proclaimers Anointed Church, founded by UK-based Nigerian Pastor, Tobi Adeboyega, over an alleged £1.87 million fraud.
The evangelical church commonly known as SPAC Nation was wound up in the High Court on 9 June 2022 before Judge Burton, after the church reportedly failed to properly account for more than £1.87 million of outgoings and operating with a lack of transparency.
The court heard that SPAC Nation was incorporated in 2012, a charity set up to advance Christianity. Much of its charitable work was based in London, working particularly with vulnerable people, youth, and offenders.
The Christian group was first well-accepted and earned media attention. However, by late 2019, SPAC Nation has come under fire from the public when former church members claimed that senior church officials had taken advantage of them financially.
After receiving concerns about SPAC Nation, the Insolvency Service launched its own private investigation into the church group’s operations.
According to a statement posted on the country’s website, the Official Receiver has been appointed as liquidator of the company.
The statement reads,
“The court heard that SPAC Nation was incorporated in 2012, a charity set up to advance Christianity. Much of its charitable work was based in London, working particularly with vulnerable people, youth, and offenders.
Initially, the church group received positive reviews and media attention. But by late 2019 SPAC Nation was subject to media scrutiny following allegations by former church members they had been financially exploited by senior church personnel.
Investigators interviewed pastor Dapo Adegboyega and he said that the church group had over 2,000 members and 200 ordained ministers and pastors but failed to provide any supporting information.
Further enquiries found that SPAC Nation either failed to comply or only partially complied with statutory requirements, including providing data to support claimed donations, and accounting records in support of £1.87 million of expenditure.
The company’s financial statements in the two years to 31 December 2019 set out £610,000 of rent expenditure. However, the company did not have a single base of its own and would hire venues across London to hold services, at significant expense.
Salvation Proclaimer Ministries Limited was wound-up after the court concluded the company operated with a lack of transparency, filed suspicious or incorrect accounts, and was insolvent at the time of the hearing.
It was also recognised that the company provided inconsistent information to the Insolvency Service and Charity Commission, and failed to deliver up adequate accounting records”.
Big Brother Naija star, Saga Adeolu has advised ladies to stop playing hard to get because it’s archaic.
According to Saga, the common notion that women should not show interest in a guy too quickly because it would make them seen as an easy catch is outdated.
The 28-year-old fitness enthusiast, who was stuck on his co-star, Nini, on the sixth edition of Big Brother Naija show, shared this opinion on Twitter on Friday, June 17.
“Ladies if you like him, there’s really no point playing hard to get.
Let’s all agree, that shit is old school”, he tweeted.
However, many people expressed disagreement with his take as they opined that ladies shouldn’t be easily accessible to a male admirer because it would lead to disrespect and contempt.
A Twitter user wrote, “And wen you play easy to get, they think you are cheap and still break your heart…This life no Balance”
Reacting to the lady’s concern, Saga said he doesn’t mean ladies should play easy to get but they should simply be themselves.
A while ago, Saga Adeolu got ladies swooning on social media after he gifted his co-star and love interest, Nini Singh, a beautiful pencil drawing of her face. Read here
A California man has been arrested and charged with torture, false imprisonment, mayhem, forceful rape, and other felonies after reportedly holding a 22-year-old woman in his home against her will for months.
The 59-year-old man, identified as Peter Anthony McGuire, is alleged to have held his female roommate captive in his home for 6 months.
The alleged 22-year-old victim, who has not been publicly identified, allegedly escaped from the suspect’s home on Thursday night, June 9 and was found in a park by bystanders who called the police, according to officials.
“Very soon after moving into the house she was not allowed to leave, she was held there against her will by him and at that point was subjected to multiple assaults,” Police officials said in a statement.
McGuire “subjected” her to repeated assaults, including cutting out her tongue, taking out an eye, and slicing her nose, ear, and lip, according to a criminal complaint.
The San Bernardino County Sheriff’s Department said in a statement that “the victim had obvious injuries consistent with the claims made.”
She was taken to a local hospital and is now in stable condition, said the San Bernadino District Attorney’s Office
.
McGuire had already fled his home by the time police arrived, but investigators tracked him down in Orange County and took him into custody on Saturday, June 11 after a standoff between him and police.
He, on the other hand, has pled not guilty to counts of kidnapping, torture, mayhem, rape, false imprisonment, sodomy, forcible oral copulation, and assault with a deadly weapon.
He is being held at the West Valley Detention Center without bail.
Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing Sunday has shown that she’s still receiving advances from men despite her messy breakup from her ex-partner, Opeyemi Falegan.
The curvaceous thespian took to her Instagram page to share a screenshot of the message she received from an admirer presumed to be Gambian.
In the chat, the man proposed marriage to her and told her to forget about Nigerian men because they will keep breaking her heart whereas he is ready to pour all his love on her.
He also suggested that they should move to Gambia or the UK after the wedding to start a life together.
“Hi Nkechi
Since you’ve divorced your Nigerian man. Marry me and move to Gambia with me or better still move to the UK with me, and forget about these Nigerian men, they won’t stop breaking your heart. Try another country, come live with me in the UK, experience new life.
Come to me and I’ll take good care of you”.

It would be recalled that armed men stormed the St Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo state, on Sunday June 6th, shooting sporadically at worshippers, leaving at least 38 worshippers dead and a score of others severely injured.
The National Security Council linked the attack to the Islamic State West Africa Province (ISWAP) and on Thursday, June 9, the Owo monarch announced the arrest of the culprits.
However, during the brief ritual on Thursday, June 16, the worshipers, Olowo, and other ‘ogun’ devotees hurled ancestral curses at the criminals, believing that nemesis would catch up with them in no time.
Pictures and videos that have been shared online show Olowo moving to the site of invocation with Chief Dada Aderobagun, the Olu Ode of Owo Kingdom, performing the rituals that follow the raining of curses on the evil doers.
The Special Assistant to the Olowo of Owo, Mr. Sam Adewale, explained that the attack on 127 worshippers necessitated the invocation of Ogun curses on perpetrators of the gruesome attack on the Owo community.

A full-blown fight almost broke out between Big Brother Naija stars, Beatrice Agba Nwaji and Maria Chike Benjamin, during the reunion show that aired on Thursday night, June 16.
The drama started when Beatrice revealed that she didn’t move close or attempt to become friends with Maria during the show because she didn’t like her.
This seemingly got to Maria who immediately interrupted her and said she didn’t want to be friends with her either because she doesn’t belong to the caliber of people she is friends with.
She added that Beatrice probably disliked her because she has inferiority complex and told her to deal with her self-esteem issues before approaching her.
This statement struck a cord in Beatrice and she instinctively stood up and made to physically attack Maria but was stopped by Pere and other housemates who intervened.
Thereafter, the mom of one was escorted off the set by the camera crew.
Watch below,
This incident has stirred reactions from viewers of the show, and majority of them berated Beatrice for her actions while noting that the attempted attack was not necessary.

Bianca Ojukwu, the widow of former Biafra president, Chukwuemeka Ojukwu, has narrated an encounter with Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), in 2009.
The diplomat was reacting to the outburst by a popular cleric, Fr. Ejike Mbaka, who said the former Anambra State governor will never become the next President of Nigeria because he is “stingy”.
While speaking to members of his church on Wednesday, June 15, Mbaka said a stingy man cannot be Nigeria’s president because Nigerians are hungry and they need a generous man.
”A stingy man cannot be our President. We are very hungry. We need a generous person. Nigerians are hungry. Are we not hungry?” he asked
However, in a Facebook post titled ‘On Peter Obi’s supposed stinginess’ on Thursday, Bianca shared an encounter she had with Obi in 2009 while he was still Anambra’s governor.
Bianca revealed that during her encounter with Obi in 2009, he donated the balance of $3,800, which he could have spent on a suit for an international event, to charity.
In her words,
“Sometime in 2009, ‘Mr’(as he preferred to be addressed) Peter Obi, Governor Of Anambra State at the time, visited Dim Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu and myself at Dallas, Texas. He came to deliver a get well message from Dr Goodluck Jonathan and was billed to attend a black tie event at the Dallas Marriot.
“Curiously, he flew into Dallas airport with one small carry-on luggage which he insisted on wheeling around himself, and on getting to our residence requested to freshen up.
“He opened his carry-on, filled with files and paperwork and a few toiletries and an extra shirt, when Ikemba and I asked if he was expecting another item of luggage, and he said no.
Then, what will you be wearing to the event tonight?’, we inquired. It was at that point that it struck him that he couldn’t show up in his casuals at such a ceremony. I insisted on taking him to the luxury men’s emporium at Nieman Marcus to buy a smart black suit. When we got there, he was busy doing the Dollar to Naira currency conversions.
“The suit that was a perfect match for him was a dapper Tom Ford suit with a price tag of 3,985 dollars plus tax.
“He did the calculations and told me ‘Do you know how many students this amount of money can train in Nigeria?’ I reminded him that he was the governor as well as the special guest, and for the caliber of guests expected at that evening’s occasion, including the mayor, senators and captains of conglomerates amongst others, he needed to be dressed in top form.
“To cut the story short, he refused to pay what he termed ’that outrageous price’ for the Tom Ford suit and that was how we ended up at Steinmart where he agreed to pay a more acceptable price of 220 dollars, tax inclusive, for a basic men’s suit which he was happy to wear to that evening’s event.
“What struck me, was that as we were on the way to the airport to see him off for his return flight back to Nigeria, he reached for his pocket where he brought out an envelope of crisp hundred dollar bills. The amount in the envelope was 3,800 dollars.
“He said ‘ Anyanwu, this is the balance of the money I would have paid for the ‘Ford’ suit. If the label on the suit was ‘Peter Obi’, I am wondering if anybody in America will pay that amount for it. I have deducted the amount we paid for that suit we eventually bought. Please use this balance for your Charity foundation to help those in actual need. I trust you will do so’.
“We all laughed heartily. Vintage Peter Obi! The eventual beneficiaries of that largese were Madam Theresa Agbo, a yam seller who became penniless and displaced when her Yam shed was gutted by fire, Callistus Egbe who was bedridden due to illness, and needed help with the school fees of his young children, and the Mgbemena family of six who were thrown out of their one room accommodation (which we subsequently doubled to two rooms) because their breadwinner fell upon hard times and could no longer afford the rent.
“In life, you either live by your creed or you desecrate the mould by which the Almighty created you. Any progressive nation measures an individual by his values, not his vaults. If this way of life is what is derided as ‘stinginess’ on the part of Peter Obi, then we all need to adopt this mould for a more sustainable and more humane environment.” She wrote.
Nigerian comedian, Okey Bakassi has recounted how he spoke against President Buhari becoming the first citizen in Nigeria during the 2015 and 2019 presidential election.
According to him, he shouted on the rooftop that “Bubu” lacked the pedigree to make Nigeria better but no one listened to him.
Taking to his Instagram page, Okey Bakassi said he has now pitched his tent with Labour Party Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi, for the 2023 general elections and he would also not listen to anyone who tries to convince him otherwise.
He said;
When I was shouting in 2015 & 2019 to anyone who cared to listen that Bubu lacked the pedigree to make Nigeria better, some people refused to listen. Today Nigeria is in a mess and we are all suffering it. This 2023 election, it’s my turn not to listen to anyone…it’s PETER OBI for President!
I don’t want to listen to anything that is not related to how Peter will win the election, don’t stress me with your political permutations. I can pay small attention to you, if you’re talking about other positions like National Assembly, Governor or State Assembly.
I don’t want to hear about Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, etc…I don’t want to hear about Christian, Muslim or Witchcraft. If the political discussion is not about how Peter will win, I will not listen.
Singer, Chris Brown comes through with a album tagged “Breezy” and guess what, he featured Wizkid on one of the tracks, titled “Call Me Everyday“.

Big Brother Naija star, Boma Akpore, has cleared the air on his relationship with fellow reality TV star, Tega Dominic.
The pair became prominent during the show due to their romantic involvement, coupled with the fact that Tega introduced herself as a married woman.
On several instances, Boma and Tega were seen kissing and making out, an act that sparked outrage, with many accusing them of defiling the sanctity of marriage.
Tega’s supposed husband, Ajebo, also publicly addressed his ‘wife’s’ activities in the house at the time, and celebrated her birthday with sweet messages on her birthday, making many believe they were indeed married.
However, in the most recent episode of the reunion, Boma, who previously declared that his relationship with Tega was a strategy, claimed that he did all he did with her because he was aware of the status of her supposed marriage outside the house.
According to him, while many of the housemates and viewers believed Tega was married, he knew the marriage crashed before she came into the house, so he saw her as a single woman.
Speaking on why he didn’t reveal the details while he was being bashed for being in an amorous relationship with a married woman, Boma said it was not his story to tell.
