The man used a rubber band around his neck to hold the phone to his ear.

A 300-level female student from Nnamdi Azikiwe University physically assaulted her lecturer because he interrupted her while she was making a video.
The shocking incident happened because a lecturer had tried to pass by the student while she was making a video for TikTok. He had politely asked her to let him pass saying“Excuse me,” and the lady had done so but rudely, even claiming he had hit her.
When he went back to confront the lady she resorted to violence, striking the lecturer, grabbing his clothes, and even biting him, all while other students tried to pull her off him.
As she violently beat up the lecturer, he remained calm and held up his arms, showing that he had not laid his hands on her. She later accused the lecturer of trying to sexually assault her, citing that as the reason why she did what she did.
The man had to go to the hospital to treat his injuries, he later sent a message detailing what had happened that led to an altercation, sharing his side of the story.
It was also revealed that the lady’s mother was also a lecturer at the university, which might have been the reason she was bold enough to commit such an act.
The video of the incident has gone viral online, garnering mixed reactions from netizens, many of whom remarked that the lady must have been suffering from some sort of mental illness, hence her behavior.
Others blamed TikTok for rotting the minds of the younger generation, causing a lot of them to act repulsively.

A Nigerian lady on Facebook has shared a truly controversial opinion about the cause of domestic violence in most marriages and relationships.
The lady, Unwana Peters who is currently single expressed her view how the sensitive topic. She claims that if a woman was truly respectful and submissive, no man would lay his hands on his wife.
In her own words;
“WHAT IF I AM THE CAUSE OF THE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE. I know I’m not married, but I’m at least 50% sure that no man lays hands on a truly respectful and submissive wife unless, of course, he’s drunk (or just a terrible human being),” she wrote.
Now, before you come for me, calm down! Don’t eat me arrive just yet.
Look, I get it about 60% of men struggle with controlling their anger. But let’s be honest, after three months of living with someone, you should already know whether to stay or evacuate like it’s an emergency drill.
Now, ladies, let’s talk. We will bend over backwards to respect our bosses at work because, well… salary must drop. But when it comes to our partners at home?
Suddenly, we have no customer service voice. Come closer, let me whisper a secret ,there’s a way to handle a man that makes him check himself without you even raising your voice or calling him names.
Your man is clearly upset, his anger is building, and you? You’re still talking, raising points like you’re in a debate competition. Aunty… disappear! Activate silent mode like a phone on low battery.
Let’s be real ,every man has a MUMU BUTTON. Your job? Find it and press it like an elevator button to the penthouse. Men have emotions too, and many struggle to manage them. What’s worse? Some partners don’t help; instead, they fuel the fire. Imagine telling your husband, “How dare you speak to me like that? Don’t make me lose it oo!” “If you are a man, touch me “Now, pause… Is that wisdom?
Listen, no one is perfect. Sometimes, you’ll disrespect him unintentionally. But if you know how to press reset the right way, your home won’t turn into a war zone.
In all things, my dear ladies, study that man like an exam syllabus before you commit. If his flaws are above your control level, love alone won’t save you. Don’t let romance be the blindfold that leads you into premium tears.”
The clearly uninformed and misguided take has stirred up discussions online, with many questioning her reasoning.
Otutochi Wigwe, the daughter of the late Herbert Wigwe pours her heart out, honoring the memory of her parents and brother who tragically lost their lives in a helicopter crash in 2024.
Recall that in February 2024, Herbert Wigwe, his wife Doreen, and their son Chizi were among the six who died in a tragic helicopter crash in California, U.S.A.
In an Instagram post, Otutochi shared images of her family members on coffee table memorial books and an old family picture.
She wrote,
It has been a year since I lost the three greatest pillars in my life – my father, Herbert Wigwe; my mother, Doreen Wigwe; and my brother, Chizi Wigwe. In the last 12 months, I’ve lived through a lifetime of emotions: laughter, tears, joy, anger, and sadness. But most of all, I’ve grappled with the challenge of finding my way back to happiness, rediscovering who I am, and embracing the strength I need to become a solid foundation for my younger siblings. The coffee table tribute books are curated reflections, which bring to life personal memories. They tangibly honor my family and the profound impact they had on all of us.
On the Night of Tribute, prominent people and celebrities, such as Waje, Darey Art Alade, His Excellency Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu, Lagos State Governor, businessman Aliko Dangote, and former Nigerian Vice President Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, paid their final respects to the deceased.

In a video shared online, the joyful bride can be seen dancing with her bridesmaids and clutching a glass of palm wine as she makes her way to her husband.
To maintain balance and harmony on their bridal train, the bridesmaids dressed like the bride, who wore a casual T-shirt and sweatpants.
Responding to online critics, the bride claims that her husband, who wanted them to wear casual attire for their traditional wedding, inspired the unconventional fashion statement. The newlyweds were thrilled about their decision, evoking memories of a blissful marriage.
Some confirmed that the couple doesn’t need to justify their wedding as long as they are content with their choice.

An Owerri-based baker, known as Maureen Cakes, has stirred mixed reactions following her disciplinary approach to teaching struggling students.
In a viral video circulating on social media, some of her students were seen kneeling while holding up turning sticks as a punishment for failing to answer questions correctly.
In the background of the video, she could be heard lamenting the challenges of teaching students who struggle to retain her lessons.
“When you come to work to learn and go home, practice! Then when I ask you questions, you fail.
Call me a weak madam, no wahala. But you must learn and know it. Whether the devil in your village knows it or not, you must learn and know it,”she stated.
Her approach has since sparked a heated debate. Many have argued that her methods are harsh and unprofessional, questioning the appropriateness of such discipline in an educational setting.
On the other hand, some social media users have defended her actions, viewing them as a tough love used to motivate students to take their lessons seriously.
As discussions continue to circulate, the effectiveness of her teaching methods remain a topic of contention, sparking debates online.
Here are some reactions from netizens:
@b_uniqu.e:“This made sense years ago because most of us literally experienced this but it’s not necessary anymore.
@rhodaayamz:“You’ve collected your money and you’re still punishing them ahn ahn? Or is the training free?”
@k4elvin: not in this age.. recording it makes it even worse, why now!
@paulol78: I actually appreciate this kind of discipline, we have gone too soft on our kids.
A man demonstrated his generosity by purchasing a delectable plate of fried rice and chicken for his date and her friend while opting for a modest snack of chin-chin for himself.
The viral clip showcased the man contentedly munching on a crunchy plate of chin-chin while his supposed date and her friend devoured a plate of fried rice and chicken.
The man ignored the women as they ate, instead browsing through his phone and possibly thinking about the unplanned meal because his date had brought a friend.
The viral clip has triggered varying speculations about the man’s meal choice. Many suggested the ladies were his sisters, so he showed them love by keeping himself hungry to feed them.
Internet users mentioned that the man had to cut costs because he was looking at his phone and possibly checking his bank account balance.
Some enforced that instead of satisfying the ladies, they would rather make them eat from a plate while they eat from the other since they didn’t budget for a third wheel.

“Please keep me anonymous. I’m a woman aged 31 and have been married for 5 years. My husband and I have 1 kid but I have 2 from previous relationships. I don’t want to lie, my husband is a good man and he takes care of his family. There’s nothing I can complain about. My problem is I always cheat on him but regret it later. Every chance I get I cheat. I’ve been having an affair with my boss for almost a year now. Everytime I socialise with my friends and an opportunity to cheat arises, I take it. My boss is the only affair I’m having, the rest are just hit and run situations. What could be the problem with me? I’ve been praying but it’s not helping.”

She urged people to request to see the throwback photos of their partners before uttering the word ‘I do’.

“Before you say ‘I do,’ make sure to ask for a throwback photo from 10 years ago! With all these surgical upgrades, you need to know who you’re really signing up for. You don’t want to be left wondering why your kid looks like a stranger. Check the receipts before the vows.”
Below are some comments;
“This is bullying at this point, y’all leave this guy alone haba, people do veneers. Use Ozempic, BBL, liposuction all the time, it’s getting boring now”

“When you people do yours, we only watch we don’t judge oh justice for men, infact me I want to change my lips”
Nollywood actress Ruth Kadiri poses a thought-provoking question, highlighting the potential emotional challenges faced by women without friends on their wedding day.
On her Instagram page, Kadiri asked if she was the only lady who experienced a panic attack after seeing brides posing in gorgeous photos with several of their friends on social media.
Since she is now married and has two daughters, she later realized she had moved past that time.
However, she questioned how women without female companions often handle their wedding day, particularly the anxiety and worries about who should be invited or whether guests would join them in celebrating.
She noted that as people plan celebrations with a restricted number of guests, images of brides without friends should also be published on wedding blogs to inspire women.
While some netizens shared their similar experiences on their wedding day, others fear inviting guests who don’t value them to their special day.
Below are some reactions,
@eriata_ese My own fear is inviting people who don’t like me to my event. Imagine eating my rice and deep down you don’t even like me 😩
@cninonyeogujuiba I am that girl. Nobody stood by my side because I don’t have friends

Peluola Akinbamiro a 13-year-old American-based teenage fencer, has announced her decision to represent Nigeria on the international stage.
She is now the second fencer to pick Nigeria over the country they currently reside in, with Folayemi Akinyosoye being the first after she switched from Great Britain to Nigeria.
The teenage fencer is a student of the Fort Bend Fencing Academy, she expressed that her love for Nigeria prompted her to reach out to the Nigerian Fencing Federation.
In a statement released by the federation, the fencer expressed her sentiments.
It read;
“I decided to take up fencing after watching people play with such passion during the World Cup and other events. Fencing has taught me patience and self-awareness. Representing Nigeria is important to me because it is my motherland, and I am proud to wear its colours in international competitions,”
“My goal is to become the best fencer I can be while also pursuing higher education. I want to reach the highest levels in fencing. My parents’ unwavering support has been my biggest motivation. They have dedicated their time and resources to help me succeed in fencing. I am excited about the uniqueness of the sport, especially the thrill of fighting with a sword,”
The current president of the Federation, Adeyinka Samuel also took this opportunity to commend Peluola, while speaking about the current state of fencing in the country.
In his words;
“I am thrilled with Akinbamiro’s decision. Nigeria has the potential to compete with the best in the world, and having talented fencers like her will inspire our homegrown athletes to excel. We believe her addition to the team will positively impact the sport’s fortunes. As she begins her international journey this year, we hope she can bring more medals to Nigeria, especially as we aim to have our athletes compete in the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games,”
“We are happy that many of these athletes recognize their origins and want to be part of our efforts to develop the sport in Nigeria, especially as we host the African Championships this year and the Commonwealth Championships next year. Akinbamiro will surely be a valuable addition to our team, given her background in the sport and her young age, as we target the 2028 and 2032 Olympic Games,”

A female corps member boldly declined a proposal from a Man O’ War commander, acting adamant and unwilling to commit to marriage after a brief romance.
In the viral video, the female corps member was seen fighting to get away from the commander’s hold while her fellow corps members were gathered around her, yelling that she had accepted the proposal.
The lady seemingly unimpressed by the hurried proposal politely declined his offer but the man was hell-bent on giving her the ring and forced her to accept his proposal.
She stiffened her fingers as he inserted the ring into her palms, but her fellow corp members forced her to accept it despite her desire to leave their gathering.
The video has sparked negative criticisms online with many criticizing the man for proposing after a mere three-week courtship.
While some questioned whether accepting a marriage proposal is compulsory, others acknowledged that the commander was overcome by love when the corp member just used him as a meal ticket in camp.
Below are some reactions,

With the makeup off, herhair unkempt, and casual clothes she had gone from looking like a baddie to looking like a granny

A dramatic scene unfolded at a church deliverance session when a congregant, in a trance-like state, bit a female usher, prompting her to retaliate with a slap.
In a video shared online, the usher @peehairss revealed the bruise she sustained after she assisted her fellow usher to calm the woman in a trance-like state.
As the ushers held onto the congregant while another church worker doused water on her, the woman refused to compose herself and persistently struggled with them to let loose.
Despite their effort to compose the woman, she resorted to biting the female usher on her arm, leading to a physical altercation as the usher slapped her in return.
The woman immediately came out of the trance condition following the unexpected slap, and the usher was astonished as she looked at her arm.
In a subsequent video, the woman displays the result of the bite, which left her skin with a hickey-like mark.
See reactions below,
