The governorship candidate of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Lagos State, Dr. Olajide Adediran, popularly called Jandor, has dismissed speculations making the rounds that Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, popularly known and called ‘Jenifa’, has been chosen as his deputy in the 2023 polls.
Jandor made the clarification following trending report on social media on Wednesday, claiming that he had finally settled for Akindele as his Deputy.
When contacted for clarification, Jandor simply dismissed the report, saying “I haven’t chosen nor announced Funke Akindele as my running mate.
“However, that stage will come in due course when an official public announcement will be made.”
One of the suspected ritualists who allegedly killed a young girl, Nkemdili Eze, in Enugu state, said the girl was sacrificed because their deity needed the blood of a virgin to be powerful.
The suspect, identified simply as Agbo, made the confessional statement shortly after he was caught by the neighborhood personnel in connection with the crime, Vanguard reports.
The suspect said that Ifeanyi Onyishi, a native doctor, ordered him to bring Nkemdili to him for the sacrifice after he recommended her. The suspect and his accomplice, Ifeanyi Onyishi, also known as Aro bi n’agu, were both burned to death by an angry mob.
The Neighbourhood official quoted late Agbo as saying;
“Ifeanyi didn’t like the fact that I was being caught most of the time I went for robbery operations. He was looking for a way to fortify his deity. One day, he told me that he had brought an abandoned deity named Idenyi, to his shrine.
I was shocked to hear that from him. I asked him if he knew how to appease the deity. He equally told me that he needed the blood of a virgin to make the deity powerful. That was why he asked me to bring someone to her and I recommended Nkemdili.
So, there was a masquerade festival in my village. A day before the festival, I searched for Nkemdili but without success.
However, a day after the festival, I was in the bush smoking Indian hemp when she passed. I quickly notified Ifeanyi and he moved to the location with another suspect who I didn’t recognize.
“When they got there, his friend stopped her, while Ifeanyi covered her mouth and they took her into the bush. I followed them also.
“After the sacrifice, he promised he was going to settle me very well. He said he was going to sell a portion of his land to give me a huge sum of money that would make me not to expose him.”

A cabman has narrated how he handled a “Lekki babe” who refused to stop brushing her hair in his car despite telling her not to.
The man identified as Oni Foto took to Facebook to recount his experience on Tuesday, June 5.
According to him, he picked up the lady around 12 midnight and she started brushing her hair in his car which he didn’t find comfortable so he politely told her to stop.
However, the lady gave him a rude response and told him she has the right to do anything she wants in his car because she is paying for the ride.
This didn’t sit well with the cabbie and he parked his car and made her come down without getting to her destination.
He wrote,
“Last night I asked a lekki babe politely to not brush her hair in my car at 12am.
She told me she is paying for the ride and can do whatever she wishes in my car.
The statement triggered Me and despite her friend begging for me to not mind her and continue the ride.
My spirit didn’t continue with her as she stubbornly continued brushing the hair.
Hair that you didn’t brush in your room, or brush when you get to your destination.
I parked, she came down, slammed my door hard, I didn’t react.

The thespian in a video shared on her Instagram page narrated in details how the incident occurred and advised people to be security conscious.
She also vowed never to travel at night again after the horrifying experience she had with the armed robbers.
Her words,
“Please let’s be security conscious. Nowhere is safe. Two days ago which is on Sunday, I wrapped up my girlfriend’s production. I told them I was leaving for Enugu because I had a job that I was going for. They have been waiting for me for like three days. Destiny, Mary, they told me not to travel.
I told them I needed to go because there is no movement on Monday. So, I told them I needed to go. And I left. I was in traffic at the head Bridge for like two hours. I successfully passed the traffic. I got to a route you would take to go to Awka. It is usually very fast for me so, I passed the road.
I met another traffic there. So, I was in traffic for another one hour. It was dark. It was 8.30 pm. All of a sudden, I heard a very loud bang on my side glass window. I was shocked. So I winded down. I was like hello, then a guy came and said, “do you know you are on the wrong lane?” He was trying to bend my side mirror. So I started to beg him.
I told him I saw other cars passing through the same lane. The next thing, I wanted to wind up and he put my hands down and came in. Brought his head inside. My PA was seated beside me. His partner went to the other side of the window. So, the guy brought his head inside the car and said, if you make any noise, I will shoot you.
He brought a gun and pointed at my stomach and told me to bring out everything that I have. He said I should give him my phone. I told him to take money instead of my phone because he would not be able to use the iPhone. I brought money out, as I was giving it to him. He said I should tell my brother to bring out all the money he has. I told him the PA is not with any money. I begged them after they threatened to kill me.”

“Àríké said YES. We are engaged and we’ll be getting married!
On the 20th of June 2022(our one year dating anniversary), I asked the most awesome woman @arikeadeola.o, to marry me after a year of dating — one that came with some reconstruction, intentionality and obedience to God.
Adeola(@arikeadeola.o) — Àríké Mi, from the first week we spoke over that video call, I knew you were my wife. We’ve grown in the past 1 year plus, we’ve put in arduous work, we’ve had extremely difficult conversations, we’ve struggled, we’ve unlearned and relearned and we are still growing into graceful imperfection. Healthy relationships/marriages aren’t a walk in the park, but it is easier with you because you put in the effort.
I’ve been bedevilled with many pains and anxieties in my 26 years of existence, but with you, my worries dissipate. Literally. The longest time I’ve stayed without a panic attack was around you. Your love heals. You’re my favour and you fit into my forever.
I am proud to be your husband-to-be. I’m beyond enthralled with you in my life. I choose you, Àríké. In the multitude of others, na you. You’re my favour & I never knew how much I needed the beauty you brought until God gifted you to me.
Life is filled with uncertainties, but I’m pledging to keep loving you every day, even when it’s tough and inconvenient. I pledge to put you first and exemplify Godly headship. You’ll be the best version of yourself with me because I am submitted to God, and in Him, I will not lead you astray. I’ve been a purveyor of sagacious marriage values, and I can’t wait to live the reality with you by God’s grace.
Now, I can show you to the world. Finally. 🥰I eagerly waited for this moment. I’ve been your fiancé for 16 days now, and man, I can’t wait to build a godly marriage with you.
Ife mi. Ayanfe mi. Iwo o shey litemi, mi ni yin e nu naye naye, moshe Ileri ko e fi ife mi a to e.
Ah, you’ve made an Igbo man learn Yoruba. Not just Yoruba but Ondo. My Ondo princess! My London baby.
A woman captured the horrifying moment lightning struck her husband’s truck with him and their kids inside on Friday evening, July 1.
The husband, Edward Whalen, and his family were driving down from St. Petersburg and heading back to their hotel when the unexpected occurred.
The lightning strike was captured by his wife, Michaelle, who was traveling in another vehicle that was trailing Whalen and their children in the truck.
According to Whalen,
“She (Michaelle) thought the storm was really neat looking and so she wanted to get a picture of it and she kept trying to snap pictures, she couldn’t catch it. So my son-in-law recommended she use that slow motion video. That’s when she caught the big moment.”
“You could feel a slight buzz in the car when it hit us, and then my oldest daughter was sitting next to me and she jumped halfway in my lap and screamed. She [Whalen’s daughter] yelled daddy what happened and I said we got hit by lightning,” he added.
Thankfully, no one in the vehicle was injured, but the truck was “completely fried” by the lightning strike.
Speaking further, Whalen said,
“I had to jump out of the truck and run back to her and hold her and let her know we were all fine. We were really confused. We had real bad headaches. That was always my dream truck, and I finally got it. I had just made my third payment on it and then boom. Hopefully, it’ll work out though.”
Whalen said he’s just glad they’re alive.
“It was pretty wild. After everything was done, my son said we needed to check ourselves in a couple days for super powers.” He said.

Unforgettable memories clouded in tears of joy combined a transformative moment for many worshipers at the Warri based Christ Mercyland church as the founder, billionaire prophet Omoto Fufeyinsplashed over N13 million on the needy in the society.
This is coming at a time when poverty rate continue to grow in Nigeria as many people now face increasing cost of food items.
Over 33 women, who struggled to take care of their newborn babies, families who shops were destroyed in Kaduna and NYSC members who served with the church were included in the provision of the financial support.
Most of the women who newly put to bed in the course of the church programme were offered N150, 000 each as most of the women reiterated what they were facing in fending for the babies before the man of God came to their rescue.
A lady who hails from Kaduna, who had resorted to stealing after the state government dismantled her shop was offered over N1.4million.
In narrating her ordeal, she said she came to the programme with her family after seeing the pastor in her dream. She confessed that her predicament led her into stealing to take care of her children.
This won’t be the first time the philanthropist, through his foundation would be putting smiles on the faces of the masses.
Recently, thousand of families were feted with over N85 million and foodstuff by the Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin Foundation.
Last year, nearly about N800 billion was said to have to have been released by the cleric as palliative in support of the Federal Government and the masses to assuage the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

A Nigerian lady, Josephine Muyiwa-Afolabi, who gave birth after waiting for 15 years, has recounted how they were mocked by friends.
Josephine and her husband, Pastor Emmanuel Muyiwa-Afolabi, welcomed their first child in June of 2022.
Taking to Facebook following the birth of their daughter, the career coach detailed her journey from her wedding to years of waiting, lies, mockery that she and her husband suffered.
In a lengthy post on her page recently, she recalled how two women gossiped about her in church, saying that she must lived a very promiscuous life in school and had several abortions.
Her post reads,
“When we said “I do” on October 20, 2007, little did we know the kind of journey we were about to embark on. We had envisaged welcoming our bundle of joy within the first year,”
But like a silly joke, days started running into weeks, weeks into months and months into unbelievable years.
Years full of ceaseless monthly flows; of continued red-coloured disappointment. Of staying clear of anti-malarials to avoid hurting a supposed pregnancy that didn’t even exist.
Of unexplained excruciating pains which lasted for 14 days a month, Leading my husbandman to pray at some point saying: “Lord, even if you will not give us children, heal my wife from this endless pain”
What about mockery and dangerous lies from those we assumed were the closest to us? Same people who pretended to be praying for us while in reality, were rejoicing in secret about our situation, using our pain as news items, mocking us for always being on medications….hmmnnn
But right at the height of the mockery, Oh Lord, you arose and made good your promise unto us. At the most unexpected time, You shut the mouth of the enemy and the mockers!
After 15 years of what seemed like a never-ending journey of childlessness, You have proven that you sure have a track record of keeping your words. Olorun agbaye o, you’re mighty!
After endless visits to over a decade hospitals with several failed procedures, Oh Lord God, you stepped in, in your own time and you’ve made it beautiful.
After I totally gave up and deleted every plan for children from my plans last year May, you Oh Lord decided to show up and remind me that your promises unto me are yea and amen!
And for everyone who has asked us: “where is your God?”, You oh Lord has answered them by yourself!
Hey God!!! Muyiwa and I are finally dad and mom to our precious Princess – oh how sweet the feeling!
And to my in-laws: there was no single day of complaints or insults; it’s been massive support all through these 15 years. The Afolabis are a special breed abeg and we are super-grateful.
“To my mother- abiyamo tooto- Taiyelolu Alice- thank you for your unceasing and genuine prayers. The baby is finally here.
To my siblings who were truly there for me- you will not lose your reward. And our friends who stood with us in prayers and moral support, we love you all. Now, we can confidently sing: See what the Lord has done (2x) What we waited for Has come to pass. See what the Lord has done”
Narrating further, she wrote,
“I was at work and a colleague complained about how her domestic staff was getting fatter by the day and how she suspected that the girl must be pregnant.
“I chipped in: “she might be getting fat because you’re feeding her well and she has peace of mind; weight gain is not the only symptom of pregnancy and doesn’t have to be a result of pregnancy.”
And my colleague responded: “Josephine, you should have at least let experienced people talk.”
What was my reaction? I felt like the ground should open up and sw@llow me. Once she realized how embarrassed I felt, she quickly apologized, saying: “sorry, I didn’t mean it that way.”
“Well, the deed was already done and till I left that particular office, I deliberately avoided every and any conversation related to pregnancy, child bearing, etc.
#Lesson. Sometimes, you may mean no harm but know this: people who are trying to conceive are extremely sensitive to words and actions that alienate them or make them feel incapable.
The fact that someone is yet to have children does not imply that they are in total oblivion about pregnancy, child bearing or child care, just the same way it’ll be erroneous to assume that an unmarried person is clueless about marriage matters. Let’s be more considerate and kinder in our choice of words.
About seven years into our marriage, Sunday service had just ended and as the usual practice was, my husbandman had to attend the post-service Pastors’ meeting holding in the Senior Pastor’s office. I sat in the church auditorium waiting for him.
Then two ladies walked past and stood some distance away. It appeared like they were waiting to see the Senior pastor.
One of them then asked the other, stylishly pointing in my direction: “who is this woman?”
That’s Pastor Afolabi’s wife.”, the other responded. “Which Pastor Afolabi? She queried further.
All the while, I didn’t look up and as such, neither of the ladies were aware I could hear them.
“How many Pastor Afolabis do we have here? that cute pastor naa.”
“You mean he’s married? Wow! I didn’t know.”
“Yes, he’s married but it’s like they don’t have children”
And the other responded: “na wa o. This thing is very common with young ladies of nowadays. They’ll live very promiscuous lives in secondary school and university, have several abortions and end up looking for a pastor to marry and the pastor will start suffering and praying for them to have children without having a clue about the wife’s past.”
My reaction? I moved farther away from them as I didn’t want to hear any more rubb1sh. I know myself, my husbandman knows me too well and my God knows me better than anyone else does.
#Lesson Whoever told anyone that women trying to conceive must have been promiscuous at some point in their lives? And why would anyone assume that having children is a reward for chastity such that once you don’t have, it is assumed you lived a deviant life?
Look, there are several people who had multiple sexual partners as singles and yet had no issues with having children after wedding. In the same vein are several couples who though remained chaste all through their single years but had to deal with infertility.
While I’m a strong crusader for no premarital sex, I understand that virginity and chastity are no guarantees for fertility. So next time you see a couple who are trying to conceive, don’t be quick to draw conclusions that you know nothing about.
