63  Forum / The Buzz Central / Rihanna Humbles Herself As She Visits Sec Sch Students In Malawi [Secret Details Inside] on: 28-01-2017 06:05 AM


Rainbow clashed with lightening as two world famous two celebrities; Madonna and Rihanna flew into Malawi same week on different missions.

She's one of the world's most in demand stars, but unnoticed, Rihanna shed her usual pop star priviledges as she dressed down to visit a Malawi school.
Make-up free and wearing a practical outfit of shirt and trousers, Rihanna looked ready to muck in as she visited the school in Lilongwe on Thursday.




Dressed down: The singer opted for a white T-shirt, plaid pants and black boots for her tour of the school

The 28-year-old toured the classrooms and met with the students during her charity trip.

Rihanna travelled to africa on behalf of her Clara Lionel Foundation, and is working as the ambassador for charities Global Citizen and the Global Partnership for Education.

Rihanna has become something of a philanthropist in recent years, and recently participated in the Women's March on Washington DC.  




Meet and greet: Students at the school in Lilongwe were clearly thrilled to have the A-lister in their midst




Giving back: Rihanna was seen touring a school in Malawi on Thursday, as part of her charity efforts to promote global education


Making her mark: 'Giving back is important to me and it should be important to everyone,' she said in 2015



Her trip to Malawi comes on the back of reports Madonna is planning on adopting twin girls from the poverty-stricken nation.

The mother-of-four reportedly filed a request this week with Malawi's high court to adopt four-year-old twins named Stella and Esther.

But the global superstar denies this was the purpose of her visit.

'I am in Malawi to check on the children's hospital in Blantyre and my other work with Raising Malawi and then heading home,' a spokesperson for the 58-year-old singer told CNN. 'The rumors of an adoption process are untrue.'

Madonna has a long history of charity work and raised more than $7.5 million for efforts in Malawi at a bash she hosted in Miami in December.

The country is clearly close to her heart, with her two adopted children, David Banda and Mercy James, both 11, originally hailing from there.

How far would you go to worship God? Some Nigerian students were recently pictured worshipping God under heavy, pouring rain, somewhere in Abia state.


Students worship God under heavy rain

According to a post shared by a Facebook user identified as Runcie Mike, some students of the Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, Abia state, ignored the heavily pouring rain just to spend time in the presence of God.

Mike who is the senior pastor at The Evening Church (TEC) International, shared the photos saying:

“Last night under a very heavy rain @Michael Okpara University Abia State, men and women were receiving Christ, they just kept coming out as the rains continued to pour heavily, we continue tonight at The Pavilion Stadium. It’s time for the harvest.”

66  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Buhari’s Health: The President Should Speak To Nigerians From UK — NLC Breaks Silence on: 27-01-2017 03:23 PM
The Presidency on Thursday insisted that despite the rumour doing the rounds on President Muhammadu Buhari’s state of health, the President is not ill.

The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, who said this in an interview with CNBC Africa, which was monitored in Abuja, said Buhari could not be compelled to speak from the United Kingdom.



The Nigeria Labour Congress, however, said the President should speak to Nigerians from the UK.

Adesina insisted that Buhari was only in London, UK, for vacation and was not in any hospital.

He said, “The President is in London on vacation. He is not in any hospital and he is not ill.

“When he was travelling last week, the statement we put out was that he was going on vacation and during the vacation, he would do routine check-up and nothing has changed from what we pushed out last week.

“If anybody has fed something else into the rumour mill, that is just what it is – rumour.”

When asked if Buhari would be willing to talk to Nigerians from the UK, Adesina said the decision could only be taken by the President himself.

The presidential aide said any attempt to compel Buhari to do so would amount to infringement on his rights.

“The fact that he is a President, he still has his rights. Compelling him to come out and talk will be infringing on his rights. The President will talk if he wishes to. If he doesn’t wish to, nobody will compel him to talk.

“The truth is that the President is on vacation and he has given a date on which he will return to work,’’ Adesina said.

Also on Thursday, the Federal Government debunked the rumour doing the rounds that governors met in Abuja on Thursday and deliberated on the health of Buhari.

It said the report was false. It also added that the governors were also not planning to send representatives to London to see the President.

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, stated this when he received members of the Presidential Initiative Committee on the North-East, who visited him in Abuja.

Mohammed said there was no need for the alleged visit, stating that the President was merely observing his leave as stated in the letter sent to the Senate before leaving the country.

He called on Nigerians to stop wishing their leaders sickness and death, saying there was nothing wrong with the President.

The minister added, “I would like to use this medium to refute the claim in some quarters that governors would meet in Abuja today (Thursday) and have discussion over the health of the President.

“Those peddling the rumour also claimed that the governors would send emissaries to the President in London.

“The report is false because the governors are not going to meet and will not send any emissary anywhere because the President is hale and hearty.”

Mohammed appealed to Nigerians to stop preaching what he described as hate and also stop wishing their leaders bad things.

He also urged those behind the rumour to stop it forthwith.

NLC asks Buhari to speak to Nigerians

Meanwhile, the NLC has called on the President to speak to Nigerians.

The NLC argued that it would be proper for the President to make a public appearance to dispel rumours in the country about his health.

The General Secretary of the NLC, Dr. Peter Ozo-Eson, told one of our correspondents on Thursday that the President should speak to Nigerians since Nigerians were worried about his health.

He said the President should call the bluff of those peddling orchestrated rumours by publicly addressing the citizenry.

Ozo-Eson said, “In the social media, stories circulate without confirmation; I think that the easiest way is to talk publicly to the nation because the citizens are concerned about their leaders’ whereabouts.

‘If there are those who orchestrated rumours and they are not true, the easiest way is for him to reach out to Nigerians through a public appearance and a statement.

“Nigerians have a right to be certain about the health situation of their President and the people who orchestrate rumours and unsubstantiated reports, one would wish for him to call their bluff by publicly addressing the citizens.”

But the TUC said it would not be necessary for the President to address Nigerians since he had not been away for long.

The President of the TUC, Mr. Bala Kaigama, stated that Buhari demanded a rest and handed over government to the Vice-President.

According to him, Nigerians can talk about the President’s health if he fails to return after the 10-day period of rest he requested.

He said, “Why do we have to make noise about this? He is coming back; if he were to go and stay for a very long time, it is a different thing. If we have patience, he will come back. We are just being unnecessarily demanding.

“This is somebody who demanded a rest and he has handed over the government to the Vice-President. So our concern is how the VP is handling it; but it his health that has become the issue of the moment.

“But we should allow the old man to have his rest. It is normal for somebody of that age to need rest from time to time. If he goes to rest that does not mean that government will not work now. Let the old man enjoy his rest.

“If he does not come back on the day he is supposed to come, that is when can talk, but for now, let’s allow him to have his rest, why does he have to come and address us? It doesn’t make any sense.”

The Executive Secretary, Anti-corruption Network, Ebenezer Oyetakin, faulted the call for Buhari to address the nation from the UK, describing it as mischief.

He said, “I do not subscribe to that. It smacks of mischief from such people. We are Africans. We have cultural discipline on some issues.

“He has done the appropriate thing by handing over to the VP as Acting President. Let us be patient and maintain a sense of decorum and respect to the institution of governance.’

* Female student rocks ridiculously long hairstyle in public
* She was was photographed in a university campus and is now being called the Nigerian Rapunzel



Human Rapunzel

Rapunzel is a fictional character who blessing and curse is ridiculously long hair that won't stop growing. For a fictitious character, her hair is gorgeous and any little girl will wish to have such lovely hair.

The reality however is anyone with hair that long will spend their entire existence styling it and would probably be unable to do anything without the hair getting in the way.

A student was photographed in the University of Lagos carrying hair as long as Rapunzel. The question everyone is asking is how she is managing to live life as Rapunzel with no hassle.


Nigerian Rapunzel

Women who braid their hair know how expensive extensions are and we are wondering if she finished a whole box of extension in achieving this look. What do you think of the Nigerian Rapunzel?

68  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Mom Beats 4 Year Old Son To Death For Dropping Egg On Floor (Photos) on: 27-01-2017 02:13 PM
Day care worker,Zarah Coombs beat her 4-year-old son Zamair to death with a broomstick after the preschooler accidentally broke an egg on the floor of their Brooklyn basement apartment.



Coombs who worked in a family-owned Bushwick day care center — waited 20 minutes with the dying boy stashed inside a water-filled plastic storage bin before finally calling 911 for help, according to a source.


The 26-year-old Coombs confessed to the Wednesday night beating and was charged with murder. She was led away in handcuffs as tears rolled down her face.But neighbor Ray Moore, 18, said the cold-blooded Coombs showed no such remorse as medics tried to save her son’s life.
Quote
“She was just standing there like she just don’t care,” said Moore, who lives one floor up from the murder suspect in Brownsville. “I know if it was me, my mother would’ve been in the ambulance.
“That’s when you know something wasn’t right.”

The brutal killing occurred while Coombs was home alone with Zamair and two younger kids, waiting for her boyfriend to return from buying marijuana, sources said.When the egg slipped from the small child’s hands, the mom lost her mind, grabbed the broomstick and beat the helpless little boy until he fell silent, sources said.

She then put the unconscious Zamair in the large bin inside the apartment bathroom, according to sources.Coombs — raised in a family of 15 kids and the mother of four children — only summoned help when her live-in boyfriend, Jamari Richardson, returned home shortly before 9 p.m., cops said.

When cops arrived, they found the battered Zamair unable to breathe and foaming at the mouth, according to police and a relative. He was pronounced dead about five hours later at Brookdale University Hospital.

69  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Nigerian Government Recovers N15bn, $10.5m From Looters on: 27-01-2017 12:40 AM
Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr Abubakar Malami (SAN), says the Federal Government has recovered N15 billion and $10.5 million so far in its asset recovery drive.



Malami disclosed this on Thursday in Abuja when the Senate Committee on Judiciary, Human Rights and Legal Matters visited the ministry on its oversight function to appraise the 2016 budget performance of the ministry.

“Let me put it on record that the Federal Ministry of Justice has equally significantly recorded success in the recovery drive as it relates to the looted funds.

“In that regard and direction, over N15 billion has been recovered by the ministry and $10.5 million was equally recovered in that direction,’’ Malami said.

The minister said that exclusive of the recoveries, the revenue profile of the ministry as at Dec. 31, 2016, was N12.4 million.

He said this was generated from sale of journals, renting of part of the headquarters building to commercial entities, use of its conference hall, tender fees and sale of un-serviceable items.

He added that the total expenditure profile of the ministry within the same period was N3.7 billion, including personnel and non-regular allowances.

The chief law officer of the country said that the ministry, by virtue of its mandate, was in a vantage position to articulate and implement the present administration’s broad policy objectives in four major priority areas.

“The anti-corruption campaign, the recovery of stolen national assets, the rule of law component of the anti-terrorism war and the institutionalisation of law and order in all aspects of national life,’’ he said.

On Nigeria’s non-membership of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), Malami explained that it will take the collaboration of both the executive and the legislature to scale all the hurdles.

“Among some of the demands required to become a member are the passing of the Money Laundering Act, Proceeds of Crime Act and Autonomy of the Financial Task Force.

“All these bills are still pending before the legislature and have not been passed, so we need to work together to get Nigeria registered.’’

The Chairman of the Committee, Sen. David Umaru (APC-Niger) said the 2016 budget was fraught with challenges but noted that the ministry and its parastatals was able to make judicious use of it.

He said the committee was not oblivious of the recent economic challenges in the country and was already preparing for the 2017 budget defence.

Umaru said the committee would work in consultation with the executive, particularly the justice ministry, to ensure that the budget was passed so as to address the economic situation in the country.

He added that the committee was also working to ensure that all bills necessary to make the work of the ministry and its parastatals easier were been looked into with a view to passing them soon.

A member of the committee, Sen. Chukwuka Utazi (PDP-Enugu) decried Nigeria’s non-membership of the FATF.

According to Utazi, as a country that really wants to fight corruption, if we are on the FATF, it will help us to recover some of the stolen assets.

“Nigeria is not a member of FATF, this is a very important membership which we have not yet gotten and this can help us recover stolen assets since it is one of its core mandates.’’

He lamented that office of the attorneys-general always put in applications for membership every year but failed to follow it through.

The lawmaker said that the shuttle diplomacy Nigeria was engaging in would not yield much without a membership of the FATF as no other member would give Nigeria support unless it was registered.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that N3.9 billion was appropriated for the main ministry in the 2016 budget with overhead cost taking over N1.7 billion.
70  Forum / Politics / Tinubu Criticises Buhari’s Economic Policies, Says He Won’t Ignore ‘The Truth’ on: 27-01-2017 12:20 AM
National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has urged the Federal Government to get Nigeria out of recession by urgently reviewing its monetary policies.



Tinubu spoke on Wednesday as a guest lecturer at the National Defence College Course 25, titled, “Strategic Leadership: My Political Experiences.”

He argued that Nigeria’s current inflation rate of 18 per cent was unbearable and that Nigerians were suffering for it.

He said, “In the situation we face, deficit spending is essential to bolster aggregate demand and direct funds to projects that build infrastructure and bolster employment. We must better harmonise monetary policy with fiscal policy. It undercuts our goals if monetary policy is unduly tight at a time when fiscal policy begets deficit spending.

“We must also realign trade policy with our need to create a meaningful industrial base and more potent agricultural sector. We can no longer allow cheap imports to preclude the development of industries and sectors strategic to our enduring economic future.

“What am I doing if I have a billion, and you are ready to give me 180 million, that is 18 per cent upfront, do I have to work or do anything again? These are the factors they have to look at quickly to ease the monetary policy.

“You have to stimulate this economy, you have to spend yourself out of this recession and you cannot do that by consistently stifling the banks of liquidity. It is their money; it is their saving. We have to criticise ourselves when it is necessary, speak truth to power.

“We are the power, we speak truth to ourselves. The monetary policy must be consistent with the environmental need of our domestic requirements, you cannot hold on too much or too tight to a policy.”

Tinubu added that the leadership of the APC was right to criticise the Federal Government, because “when it is necessary, speak truth to the power, we are the power, we will talk the truth to ourselves.”

“Our fiscal policy does not mesh with monetary policy. Trade policy undermines industrial policy, thus the ease of doing business is inhibited. Overseas peacekeeping missions do not always harmonise with core foreign policy interests. A nation in progress seeks to minimise, not harvest additional contradictions, otherwise its leadership strategy is doomed to fail.

“Strategic objectives during this period of economic uncertainty must be to re-engineer the economy bottom up, diversify the economic base, strengthen our industrial base, modernise infrastructure, enhance agriculture, and provide employment and of course, ease of doing business,” he added.
71  Forum / The Buzz Central / Big Brother Naija: ThinTallTony Goes Unclad To Save His Place, Housemates Get Emotional on: 27-01-2017 12:09 AM


“I will show you the real me”, Tony said as he stripped off his clothing in a bid to canvas for likes ahead of the first nomination show that will amount to the possible eviction of one or more housemates.

Big Brother had announced in between of a current task that the housemates should campaign for likes. When they took turns at it, the campaign turned emotional as the housemates shared deeply emotional reasons why it is necessary for them to remain in the house. Efe stuck to his realness and told the housemates that winning the big prize will be a dream come true as his life before the show was characterised by tough financial struggles. Meanwhile, Gifty’s speech led to an emotional outburst that got Bisola, Bally and Tboss pacifying her.

From one speech to the next, tears flowed freely among the housemates but no one was prepared for what ThinTallTony had in store to save himself from eviction. Tony took the stage and stripped to nothing as the ladies scampered to hide their faces. He explained, in tears, that his decision to show off his “real self” is what a campaign is  about and he had hustled enough but all he has left is his own self. His speech drew even more tears from all the housemates, even the men.

72  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / ‘Is Buhari Dead?’ Becomes Most Searched Phrase In Nigerian Internet Space on: 26-01-2017 11:48 PM
President Muhammadu Buhari is the most popular Nigerian online in the past two weeks.


And over the weekend, rumours started flying around that ‘Buhari has died in London’, though the presidency was quick to deny the claims.

Despite this, millions of concerned Nigerians and people across world have gone online to search answers for ‘Is Buhari dead?’ – a phrase that has become the most searched item on Nigerian platforms this week.

On Saturday, January 21, over 100,000 people searched ‘Is Buhari dead’ on Google and at least 5,000 people still search the subject daily.

While Buhari is away, Yemi Osinbajo met with a delegation from General Electric led by their CEO, Jeff Immelt

Buhari departed Nigeria on Thursday, January 19 for a two-week vacation in London where he would undergo medical check-ups.

As a result, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo is acting as president till Buhari resumes office on February 6.

While the presidency has denied reports on Buhari’s death, Nigerians won’t back out until they see their president back in the country.

74  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Conservation goals: N1.1m Reward Has Been Set For Anyone Who Finds This Bird Alive (Photo) on: 26-01-2017 06:59 PM
There is the need to conserve some of the flora and fauna species in our environment. The nonchalant attitude of locals and the constant activities of poachers put most of the indigenous species around at risk of extinction.

File photo of the kokako bird.

There is the need for strong conservative measures to be enforced in order to preserve some of the endangered species. A New Zealand charity has offered $3,638 which is about N1.1 million as reward to anyone who sights a South Island 'kokako' bird.

The kokako bird are basically two species of endangered forest birds that are endemic to New Zealand. There is the North Island kokako and the almost extinct South Island kokako. Both species of birds are slate-grey with wattles and have black masks.

The South Island kokako has a distinctive orange wattle under its neck and was once rampant in the forests of the South and Stewart Islands. The decision of the charity on the reward was made recently in order to encourage people to help them look for this bird.

The bird had been listed as extinct before the year 2013; it was sorted again as 'data deficient' and more information was gathered on it. This bird is regarded to be the rarest on the planet. Mr Euan Kennedy, the chairman of the South Island Kokako Charitable Trust said the hunt for the rarest bird on the planet is urgent.

“If the South Island kokako still exist, there will be very few left we need to locate them very soon so that conservation has a higher prospect of success,’’ he stated.

The reward would be given as soon as the panel of New Zealand’s expert ornithologists sit and agree that the bird exists.


Bird lovers, pet keepers, hunters and every other back country user that have had the opportunity to see or hear the bird are encouraged to register on the website of the trust. It should be noted that no photo of the bird exists thus, the one released by the trust is a cloned modification of the north island kokako, just to help people know what the south island bird looks like.

The introduction of ship rats, cats and other organisms made the number of the south island bird reduce. The last time the bird was sighted was in 1967 at the Mount Aspiring National Park.
75  Forum / The Buzz Central / Charly Boy: “Let Us Pause On The Fantasy Tagged BIAFRA For Now” - Gistmania on: 26-01-2017 06:38 PM
* Charles Oputa has said that the dreams of nationhood is lost on the alter of deception
* He called on Igbos to focus on developing the South-East region
* Referring to Biafra as an illusion, Charly Boy said, docility has eroded humanity from Nigerians




I guess it’s about time I break my silence on this matter. From 1967 to 1970 my youth was scandalized with the horrors of the Nigerian civil war. I was never on the front line as a fighting soldier, but I was in the boys brigade transmitting from the naval headquarters then in Oguta. With the daily air raids and the smell of death all around us, we were thankful everyday we managed to stay alive. I remember a sight that has never left me till today at the tail end of the civil war.
I was walking down the street on my way to the stream to fetch water, lo and behold was the sound of death (air raids) as we all ran in different directions looking for a safe place to take cover, I turned around to figure the direction my friends were running in, all of a sudden I saw the head of one of them yanked off the body, as a result of the fighter jets that killed innocent civilians for fun, what a horrible sight for a 17yr old. The words of Plato “only the dead see the end of war” were forever engrained in my thoughts.
I am a proud Igbo man, a homeboy, and a native fowl. No demo. My friends call me Igbotic not because of i’m a nerd or a jewman.  But because I represent and symbolize all the characteristics of a typical Igbo man pre the civil war. The Igbos may have short-circuited their political growth, but it doesn’t take away the fact that we are great Nigerians.  I have learned to be more Igbotic than I ever expected. As an Igbo man, I have learned to be more profitable in the things that I do. I have perfected the art of being tenacious in any dream I chase; to be industrious, consistent and powerfully focused.

All the lessons I learned from my brothers in the tribe have made me dogged, hard-working and exhibiting the ability and capacity to survive in any kind of weather. I am an original Nwa Biafra.

Needless to say that the Igbo man is known to be one of the most entrepreneurial minds in the country. So it is particularly pathetic and unfortunate when some ignorant youths talk about this illusion called Biafra. History should teach us that Nationhood is Bloody, Hard and almost impossible when fantasy is the currency of demand. Even as Nigerians, see how our docility is killing our humanity. Didn’t the fall of Biafra after the genocide and the suffering of my people teach us anything? Haven’t we been marginalized enough? I Believe the Failure of the Igbo nation is the fault of the people elites and decision makers.

Why have we not poured our energy, capacity, and ability into making the South East the Dubai of the Nation as well as the engine room of the Nigerian Economy? Who would be our leaders when the southeast is infested with political power grabbers, 419ers, mindless criminals and looters of our commonwealth and resources? Need I mention names?

See how we have migrated to different parts of Nigeria and the world which is good, made it home and developed our immediate environment. Why are we neglecting our home base, why are we running away from developing the South East?

Our problem may not after all be the man in Aso Rock from Daura or the ordinary Hausa or Yoruba man on the Streets of Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Warri or Ogbomosho. The problem is the lack of men of integrity and a progressive mindset. We lack the right kind of leadership that will fight for the interest of the People. Let it be clear to all that the suffering of the people from the South East is also the suffering of the people from the other geopolitical zones in Nigeria. It is therefore retrospectively insane to begin to think that a people with a problem would suddenly be relieved when they are attached to a tag #BIAFRA; What Nonsense and Insanity!

Now how do you begin to imagine that while the agitation for the state of Biafra is being demanded by the gullible Ibo youths, those who have been or are in a position of authority are either not interested or are continuing their expensive investments in other parts of Nigeria? Who dem dey deceive? They divide us daily with Religion, Tribalism, Ethnicity and Petty Bigotry even among the Tribes and Ethnic composition in the South East there is divisiveness. Why is Nnamdi Kanu yet to realize that the Dreams of Nationhood are lost in the Altar of Deception.

Have we even considered that the population of my people from the southeast outside the Region is twice the population of those in the southeast? How can we who are supposed to be looking at making the South East the centralized Industrial Hub of the Nigeria Nation be the ones who are driving a wedge of unrealistic fantasy between Nigeria and our own people? When President Muhammadu Buhari sings the localization and Nigerianization song; We should be the ones to drive the narrative, because We Can. When you have a willing Partner, who is interested in the Nigerianization of the Nigerian Economy; Why are some of my people busy creating or Poisoning the environment that is ordinarily designed to favor that which will promote the industrialization of the South East. Why have we become the enemy of our own home? Why hasn’t the “think home mentality” arrested every Igbo billionaires and millionaires? Why are we eliminating the chances of Ibonising the Nigerian Economy by Nationalizing the Ibo Thought for a United and Prosperous Nigeria as well as for the benefits of all?

I cannot STAND here and tell you there are no problems of trust in Nigeria. I will be the last to say that the Ibo nation has not undergone persecution. I will be foolish to ignore the hunger that was used as a tool to starve the Ibo Nation during the civil war. I am perfectly in the know about the problems of the Nigeria structure, Abeg make we know our history but use am to work today to perfect tomorrow.

No one can argue the facts, and the facts are clear. The major problem of the Ibo Nation is also the major issue with the Nigeria State. ‘The Mindset’. The Mind must first be liberated, the thoughts must be harmonized and the people of the South East, my dear brothers and sisters must know that the development of the region is horrible because the leaders in the region have failed. Politically, Religiously, Societally and Communally. Over the past decades; where is the Accountability from the leadership with regards;

1.  FAAC;
2.  IGR;
3.  LOCAL BONDS;
4.  FOREIGN DEVELOPMENTAL LOANS;
5.  AIDS; GRANTS & BUDGETARY SUPPORT;
6.  THE MANY FEDERAL PROJECTS IN THE REGION etc
The Failure of Leadership is evident in our agitation for Fairness, Justice, and Equality for every Nigerian not just for every Ibo man. And so the Mind of the typical Ibo Leader Needs a Revolution to be realigned for the Interest of the People rather than the interest of their pockets. Biafra is not the Solution, I truly don’t think so. So, Igbo ndi Oma. Let’s focus on our homeland and begin to demand accountability and responsibility from many of our Scammers, Riffraff’s and Fraudsters in the Ibo Kingdom called leaders. Let’s us pause on the fantasy tagged Biafra for now. Let’s us dutifully work ourselves back into the reckoning, by industrializing our home base.

I know we can, and we should.

I also urge Mr. President to show mercy on our brother Nnamdi Kanu; Him be Pikin.

Biafra, my Igboticness is always on my mind because #OURMUMUDONDO.

Forrester claims that he only wants the documents back and asks anyone that is acquainted with Njeri to ask her to return his papers to him. He is offering $2000 (N631k) for the person that can get the message across to the thief.

Forrester’s original post reads: “This lady by the name Njeri Kamau run away with my wallet contain NY social number,DL job, IDs and amount $3400(N1million) ,If you know her tell her to keep the money and return my documents.A reward of $2000(N631k) for any information leading to arrest,”

It is not clear how Njeri stole the money from the American citizen, but most readers can easily guess how things probably happened.


The American citizen is willing to pay $2000 dollars (N631k) to anybody that can help him return his documents

LOL, Ladies and their sarcasm these days!

It seems tables are now turning on the men oh. As another lady has come out to say that her husband does not have the right to question her for cheating because it is in women's nature to cheat.


Latiny_ on Twitter

In a series of sarcastic tweets on Twitter, the lady tweeted what men want women to believe about their cheating habits but she changed men roles in the tweets to that of women! Read the tweets below:





















Quote
‘It is in a woman’s nature to cheat. As long as she comes back into your arms every night and keeps her relationships discrete, she loves you’ she started.

‘Even if a woman cheats on you with 10 men a day, it’s not enough reason to call it quits. At the ends of the day, she chose you. Be content.’ she advised. At this point a lot of men were already getting all fired up.

‘I mean. It is in every woman’s DNA to cheat. All woman cheat. It doesn’t mean I do not love my husband. Sometimes, temptation arises.’

She went on to explain how men from generations past had stayed with cheating wives.

‘I mean, our fathers that stayed with cheating wives and still lived happily ever after, did they die?’

‘Small cheating and 21st century men would want to form woke. You should stay with your wife and know her reason for cheating, then pray.’ It’s not unusual for people to advise women to pray whenever they complained about their husbands’ cheating ways.

‘Keep leaving your relationship because your girlfriend cheated. You would find yourself in Shiloh 2020 cos all women cheat, after all.’ Another typical warning women who have enough sense to leave cheats usually get from the ‘wise and experienced’.

She definitely nailed all of the excuses and reasons men came up with whenever their philandering ways are discovered.

Quote
‘See forget, once a woman’s horny there’s nothing she can do to stop herself from cheating. The honeypot has a mind of its own. You can’t fight’

‘You men don’t even know you sometimes push your wives to cheat on you. Instead of you to keep calm and look sexy, you would be complaining.’

She also, in her genius way, pointed out how women are expected to even be ‘understanding’ of a man’s infidelity.

‘A wise and virtuous husband would forgive his wife for cheating. Even sneak a condom in her purse so she doesn’t get infected. That is love!’

‘The devil is a very funny person. He can tempt us at any time. So cheating is not all about discipline or self control. ALL WOMEN CHEAT’
