The Arewa Youth Consultative Forum (AYCF) has called on the Federal Government to ban the airing of popular reality TV show, Big Brother Naija.
AYCF National President, Yerima Shettim, in an interview with Daily post on Friday, July 6, stated that the show encourages immorality and nudity, hence should be banned in Nigeria.
According to him, the show is synonymous with blue film (X-rated movies) because most viewers watch it because of its explicit contents.
Speaking further, Shettima appealed to the Government to ban the reality TV show and stop it from airing within the country.
His words,
“It’s a calamity as far as I am concerned; I have never believed in BBNaija and do not believe it is right because the show is an act of immorality. Such a show should not be encouraged.
“I have often said this show promotes immorality and the Nigerian government should please ban it, it should not be allowed to be aired in our country.
“You see, a lot of people watch to see immorality acts, those sex things displaying their nakedness, and they have made it look like a blue film (X-rated film), so, this must be discouraged.
“I urge true lovers of the country to join hands and call the attention of the government on the implication of this programme which must be discouraged,” he said.
The Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has disclosed that it has so far recovered N89.2 billion excess and ill*gal charges slammed on customers by banks in Nigeria.

“What we do is that whenever we get these complaints, they are thoroughly investigated, if they are found to be true, the CBN makes sure that these customers are properly refunded and we have so far recovered N89 billion,” he said.
He added that the insinuations that the Apex bank was planning to convert domiciliary/ dollar accounts to naira were false and unfounded.
Meanwhile the apex bank also said that Nigeria’s financial system is sound, resilient and stable contrary to rumors in unnamed quarters.
A twitter user, @armanie_f, who analyzed the fight scene, had this to say ;
Jackie B never told Maria she was upset. Maria noticed her mood and apologized to Jackie B but she still kept talking about the issue with other people. Maria even apologized twice Maria’s anger is very valid.
Another twitter user @Emeka Jonathan wrote ;
Jackie B has had so much resentment towards Maria for a long time.
This was bound to happen and I’m happy Maria cleared her.
Maria will be up for eviction but we are ready. But Jackie B, when you’re up, please pack noodles for your son
A video making rounds on social media shows the moment a bride refused to kiss her groom on their wedding day, despite his many attempts.
In what appears like the wedding reception, the groom moved in for a kiss but the bride declined and removed her face, to the surprise of guests.
After several unsuccessful attempts to kiss his new bride, the groom managed to rub his lips against hers.
However, it appears the bride was shy and didn’t want to kiss him in the presence of everyone because she wore a weak smile which suggests that she wasn’t comfortable.
The Hisbah board has finally reacted to the dress worn by Buhari’s daughter-in-law, Zahra Nasir Bayero, during her bridal shower that held recently.
Zahra, who is set to wed President Buhari’s son, Yusuf Buhari, on August 20, wore a figure-hugging white dress that was transparent around the shoulder and arm. She also did not wear a head covering as is usually done by Muslim women.
Her outfit caused a stir on social media as people questioned why the morality police in Northern Nigeria had not commented on her dressing, but are quick to “punish” poor Muslims if they dress in a manner considered unreligious.
Netizens called out Hisbah and accused them of being biased in their judgement; favouring the wealthy and punishing the poor masses.
Reacting to the allegation, Hisbah commander, Sheikh Harun Ibn Sin, told BBC that Zahra is not above the law and should lead by example if she wants her marriage to be blessed.
The Sheikh also condemned people circulating photos and videos of Zahra in the controversial dress on social media, adding that it is a huge crime to spread such images.
Big Brother Naija shine ya eye housemates, Tega and Nini battle words on Friday morning, August 5 over a chair.
It all started when Nini laid for a foot massage from Saga earlier today, she had her feet on a chair while she sat on another. Tega who claimed she needed a chair to seat pulled the chair from Nini’s feet without asking for permission.

An angry Nini while complaining to her friends; Saga, Arin and Jackie B in the garden noted that Tega likes to come into people’s spaces, displaying some actions that are disrespectful and triggering.
She threatened to lead Tega into depression if she dares her disrespect her again.
“She triggered me and that’s disrespectful ,Tega does not have respect for herself and others.
“I realized that sense doesn’t come with age. Respect people and don’t be in their spaces and stop frustrating them because it’s really unnecessary.
“As much as I play with everybody I wouldn’t come to your personal space and behave abnormally. I will lead her to depression if I open my mouth for her.” She said.
A Nigerian man has taken to his Facebook page to share an interesting story on how he married his wife regardless of the fact that a Medical test suggested she couldn’t have kids of her own.
The good news now is that the couple have now been blessed with a Child, less than 6 months into their wedding
Read his story below ;
Let me tell you a story about my marriage that will shock you.
About 6 months before my wife Favour Iyen and I got married, she started complaining of some pains in her abdomen.
At first, we ignored it but it became severe by the passing of each day, so I told her to go to the hospital for medical evaluation and treatment.
They ran some scans and guess what the results were?
The doctors said she does not Ovulate at all, that she had a problem with her womb and she cannot get pregnant ever!
There’s a name they called the condition (I can’t remember anymore)
This news left her devastated!
She was practically broken!
She called her mom and her elder sister to inform them about the heart-wrenching news, they too were devastated!
They told her not to inform me about it yet, because they were scared I would call-off the wedding.
I remember she came to me with the results that day, covered in tears, eyes swollen from excessive crying, still sobbing like a baby, she held my hands and said “Baby, I’m sorry, the doctor said I can’t ever give you a child”
What??? I felt a gripping cold!
She burst into another crying session, I could see the fear in her eyes, she too felt I was going to call everything off!
Right there and then, I held her hands, I couldn’t bear to see her in such pains, I hugged her and whispered to her ears
“I didn’t decide to marry you primarily because of children, I’m marrying you because I love you and I want to spend the rest of my life with you, if we can’t bear children, we will adopt”
She couldn’t believe what she just heard, she was astonished, like she stood there for a while and cried some more, this time, tears of joy, I guess.
Omo, truth be told, that has to be one of the toughest decision I’ve had to make in split seconds in my entire life. TRUE LOVE IS A POWERFUL FORCE.
I couldn’t even tell any of my family members about this, not even my mum. I didn’t want to be discouraged by anyone.
Even when she told her family that she had informed me about it and I said I’m proceeding with the wedding plans, they were shocked! They couldn’t believe it.
6 months later, we got married against all odds.
I had already come to terms with the fact that we won’t be able to bear a child of our own.
Honestly, I wasn’t bothered.
Barely a month into our marriage, i would walk into the sitting room or bedroom and catch my wife crying profusely, this happened continuously on several occasions. When I ask to know what’s wrong, she’d say it’s frustrating to know she won’t be able to bear a child.
I would encourage her and tell her to cheer up, heck! I wasn’t complaining na.
Sometimes, I even got upset because it breaks my heart to see her cry.
Fast forward to 3 months into our marriage. One day her mom was to visit us, and she went to the park to pick her up.
When she got back, she handed me an envelope, and told me to open it.
I innocently opened it and I wouldn’t believe what I would see next. It was a pregnancy test result! My wife was pregnant!!!
Omo, I wan mad! Like, I screamed!!! I can’t count how many times I kissed her impulsively. Omo, I was teary! She cried too.
My mother in-law too was so happy.
9 months later, on the same week of my birthday, my wife delivered the most adorable baby I would ever hold in my arms.
It was surreal, like a dream!
