November 5, 2021

A viral video shared on TikTok shows the moment a Nigerian man pulled a pregnancy prank on his mother and she was not having it all.

The man had placed a prank call to his mother informing her that he has impregnated a lady. In response, his mom asked to know the identity of the lady he impregnated, to which he responded, saying ‘Wunmi’, whom is presumably his girlfriend.

Without giving it much thought, his angry mom lashed out at him and asked him to ‘commot’ the pregnancy i.e., to abort the pregnancy.

The young man asked why she told them to do that and she said he shouldn’t question her advise, adding that ‘they’ are not ready for the responsibility that comes with pregnancy.

She also chided the lady for making such a mistake, before proceeding to tackle her own son.

After hearing the laughter of his friends who were also present, the mom deduced that it was a prank and lightened up a bit.

He shared the video and wrote, “na things way no happen I won dey talk now”.

Comedienne Taaoma apologizes to fans for visiting VP Osinbajo

November 5, 2021

SkitMaker, Taaooma has apologized to aggrieved Nigerians who called her out for her visit to Vice-President, Yemi Osinbajo.

Taaooma had joined other skit makers to visit Vice President Yemi Osinbajo at the state house days ago and fans chided them for ‘siding with politicians’.

Reacting to a tweet in which activist, Rinu Oduala accused the skit makers of acting like they went to talk on behalf of Nigerian youths, Taaooma disclosed that she cancelled at first but had a rethink later to join the visit which is centered towards publiclity for an award.

She tweeted ;

Hey guys, I’m apologizing once again. I had clear intentions and nothing more.

I was going to wallow in my “shame” and keep mute. But with the way it’s going, it seems the wound will keep getting deep. The organizer of the “skit awards” needed more publicity for the event, secured a meeting with the VP and invited so many “skit makers”

I also declined at first as many others. But then, at the die minute, I gave it a rethink: what if I pull a Trojan? Gain access to the state house with this “skit awards” thingy and say mymind on hot issues. Unfortunately for us, after passing through many security checks all our Electronic devices were collected. I couldn’t even go live or record videos. All I did was do what others didn’t want to. And trust me, the VP himself was shocked when I started speaking about those issues as that wasn’t his expectations.

I’m really sorry if I have offended anyone by going that way, but I achieved my aim. I said all I could straight to the VP. The VP’s media team were in charge of photos and videos, I might have fully declined if I knew that I won’t be able to go in with my camera or phone.

The pictures taken after were sent to the “skit awards” PR team.

That’s why the photos went out before we got our own hands on it.

I started getting tags and some even said I was being “called out”.

My plan was to get the video as soon as it’s ready and post it. But I had no choice than to immediately post the available photo and state what happened at the meeting.

I hope when the video is ready, everyone will know I’m saying nothing but the truth and my conscience is clear.

Once again, I apologize deeply to everyone who felt disappointed.

Comedian, Mr Macaroni breaks silence, shares real reason he was absent at the meeting with VP Osinbajo

November 5, 2021

Popular Instagram comedian and activist, Mr Macaroni has finally reacted to his colleagues meeting with Vice President, Osinbajo and revealed the real reason he was absent.

Some Nigerian skit makers; Taooma, Josh2funny, Woli Agba, and others, paid a courtesy visit to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Wednesday, November 3rd.

Photos from the visit with the Vice president found it’s way to the internet and sparked outrage. Nigerians dragged the skit makers who were present at the meeting, while many praised Mr Macaroni for shunning the meeting.

The comic act has now taken to social media to clear the air and reveal the reason he was absent at the meeting.

In a Twitter thread, he wrote in part,

“Honestly, I have tried so hard not to say anything about this issue but I have seen some comments and conclusions that do not really sit well with me. My conscience will not allow me to keep mute. So I have to say what I know for my conscience and posterity.

First, I do not think there is an association of skit makers. If there is, then I don’t know anything about it. And that would be fine because I am an Actor/Thespian first before the Tag “Skit Maker”.

So I don’t think those that went to see the VP without me or anyone else meant to sideline me. I want to believe they were invited to see The VP by the organizers of an Award Ceremony the same way I was invited. The only difference is that I declined the invitation.

The reason I declined is simple. As a Citizen, I’m not happy with our leaders and I do not want to associate with them. It’s ok if others believe that sitting with the Govt will change certain things and decide to try it out. I don’t think they should be crucified for that.

November 5, 2021

A Belgian woman, Zoe Snoeks, has fallen 100 feet to her death after posing for a selfie on the edge of a cliff during a road trip with her husband.

In the incident that occurred on Tuesday, Nov. 2, the 33-year-old woman slipped off the cliff near Nadrin village in the province of Luxembourg and landed in the Ourthe River, Newsflash reported.

Her body was later recovered by a rescue team that included firefighters, scuba divers and members of the Groupe de Recherche et d’Intervention en Milieu Perilleux, or Perilous Environment Reconnaissance and Intervention Group.

The deceased’s husband of nine years, Joeri Janssen said they went to the scenic location on Sunday, October 31, in their camper van.

“Since the pandemic, it was our little thing to drive across Europe in our van and take beautiful photos,” he said.

According to him, they always travelled with their dogs Joy and Ivy and had planned to return to their home in Limburg on the day of the incident.

Speaking with Newsflash, he said, “We got up very early to take pictures of the Herou. There is almost always mist there. It’s great for photos. We arrived before 9 a.m.”

He said his wife took pictures on the edge of the cliff when “she told me to look out for the dogs.”

He continued: “I turned to the dogs and told them to wait. When I turned back to Zoe, she was no longer there. She had just vanished. It must have happened in less than five seconds.

“I didn’t see or hear anything. No rustling, no screams or shouts. I looked up and saw only dust.

“I called her even though I knew it was hopeless. The chasm was several tens of meters deep.

“I immediately called the emergency services, but had almost no network. They didn’t understand me, even though I speak a little French.”

He said he then rushed to a nearby hotel to get help.

“The rescue team could not find Zoe immediately, they said in French. Then they told me that unfortunately Zoe was dead, also in French, but I immediately understood what they meant.

“Taking photos was her passion. I immediately unlocked her phone and saw that she had taken a photo on the cliff edge. Her very last selfie.

“Zoe is looking straight ahead. You can also see the mist and the river where they finally found her body.”

According to her, she traveled to the Dominican Republic to oversee real estate investments and to visit a gynecologist.

“I had only done a urine [home pregnancy] test. When the [nurse] does the sonogram, she says: ‘Wow, there are two gestational sacs.’ I was happy, surprised, but I couldn’t process what she was telling me.”

“In my case, I woke up pregnant like the Virgin Mary. I woke up pregnant and that’s all I remember. I will be a single mother. I know my babies will depend on me.” She added.

“Good evening twitter fam. I was asked to leave a restaurant @CrushCafe_Abj at Gwarinpa because of the way I dressed. The security person in grey top and black trousers. Had searched my bag earlier before I went in.

I had used the rest home soon after I went in, sat down ordered for mock tail and waited to my acquaintance who had suggested the place. A few minutes after, the same young man who had searched my bag. Approached me to tell I wasn’t allowed sit.

He said People who dressed the way I do weren’t allowed here. I asked if this was a club and he said no! That because they sell alcohol. I do not understand this. One bit.

I was later informed by the person who had invited me, that my dressing was offending some of the customers. He said that there was a recent communal clash with shite in the community and my dressing was representative of that. I felt very embarrassed and confused.

I could have been asked to sit somewhere else, and told what the problem was, rather than saying my dressing was not welcomed. I had to take my things and wait on the road side for my acquaintance to come get me.”

The lady said the CEO of the restaurant, who is a Muslim, has reached out to her to apologize for the way she was treated in his cafe.

The CEO has also tendered an apology on social media, noting that the staff responsible for the mistreatment would be dealt with.
