1  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Dutch grandmother loses €200,000 to 31-year-old Nigerian(Photo) on: 7-09-2014 07:29 AM

A 75-year-old female Dutch national, Jeanet De Jonge, has lost €200,000 to a 31-year-old Nigerian, Michael Adio in a romance scam.It was gathered that Adio, who had been arrested by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, pretended to be an American citizen, making it easy for Jonge to fall for him.

The EFCC, which described Adio as a confidence trickster, revealed that the man was an indigene of the Owu area of Ogun State.

Explaining how the suspect, perpetrated the act, the EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, said the victim and the suspect met on a dating site and started a relationship.
Uwujaren said,
 “Adio met the victim on the ‘Net log’ dating site and pretended to be a 41-year-old American citizen working as a chef in a Nigerian restaurant and needed a wife.The profile attracted Jeanet (Jonge) and, in no time, began sending him money through Western Union and Money Gram.”
It was gathered that Adio had told his victim that he wanted to meet her, but needed funds to get documents and perfect his travel plans.However, trouble was said to have started when Jonge did not see her hubby after sending money to him for almost two years.

Uwujaren said,
“Investigations revealed that the suspect collected various sums under the pretext that he was going to use the money to perfect his travel plans and obtain the required documents that would enable him travel to Holland to join or visit Jeanet.His inability or refusal to honour the invitation from Jeanet made her to be suspicious and prompted her to petition the EFCC.”
Adio, in his statement to the EFCC, said,
“She was sending me money monthly, ranging from $800 to $900 from June 2012 through Western Union Money transfer and Money Gram.There was a time the Western Union blocked her from sending money to me in Nigeria. So, she requested that I should go to London to enable her send me money there.I contacted a friend of mine in London, Osas Odiah, to receive the money and send to me here in Nigeria.She first sent €2,000 to my friend’s account in London, and later to my Keystone bank account, which was actually a Forex Trade account.We started using this account when we discovered that my friend was not remitting all the money sent by Jeanet (Jonge) to me.”
Uwujaren said the commission was still following up on some lead, adding that Adio would be arraigned in court as soon as investigation was concluded.

2  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / "My experience in Jail,Rihanna & Lessons learnt"-Chris Brown on: 7-09-2014 07:27 AM


Chris Brown has granted his first Post-jail interview.He opened up to Billboard on his experience in jail and why Rihanna will always remain a part of his story.

On the the daily routine in Jail..
A guard wakes you up; you eat. You stay in your cell most of the time, basically 24 hours a day. Maybe on Mondays you go to the roof inside of a cage and have a phone call. It’s isolation. You have time to focus on what matters, on what to do and what not to do.My maturity level has risen as far as my realizing what’s important. Realizing that I’m human like everyone else. At the end of the day, it’s just a humbling experience. You’re more appreciative of everything else that’s on the outside. A burger tastes 1,000 times better when you’re out (Laughs.) I’m just more appreciative of the things I’m blessed with and the things I do: music, being able to take care of my family, being able to see my friends and family. And do what I love and still be able to do it in a timely fashion to where people don’t think, “Oh well, he fell off.” Still being able to be consistent.
On what he missed while in Jail

"I just missed my family. At the end of the day, music is definitely a passion. But when you’re dealing with your own personal issues, family is first. I just dealt with that. I missed my dad and mom, all my cousins ... seeing people’s faces and smiles ... seeing people who were just encouraging and positive.

When asked if there will be a day his relationship with Rihanna won't be brought up..
When we’re not relevant anymore, that might be the case. As long as you’re doing something good, people will always bring up old stuff or negative stuff because they don’t want you to surpass a certain level or elevate. But as long as you have your head on straight, it shouldn’t matter what people want to say.

3  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Man jailed for phoning and texting his ex-girlfriend 21,807 times on: 7-09-2014 07:25 AM

A French man has been jailed after phoning and texting his ex-girlfriend 21,807 times to demand that she thanks him for fixing up their flat.

The unnamed defendant admitted with hindsight that his actions 'were stupid'.
According to Mailonline,the defendant, who comes from Rhone in southern France, had already accepted responsibility for the barrage of phone calls and text messages over a 10-month period, and had accepted an earlier demand to cease contact with his ex.

It was only when she finally said thank you, during a meeting organised by a mediator, that the harassment stopped. He has not contacted her since.

'I tell myself, with hindsight, that it was stupid,' he told the court on Thursday.He was given a 10-month sentence, six months of which was suspended, and a 1,000-euro (£800) fine.

He will also have to undergo psychiatric treatment and is barred from all contact with the woman he harassed,

Worshippers at the Ereko circuit, Di­ocese of Lagos, Methodist Church of Nigeria, are protesting against the reinstatement of one of their priests, Rev Abayomi Okesanya who was sent on suspen­sion for alleged adultery. They have vowed to re­sist the return of the clergy to their midst.

His sin: His wife, Yemisi Okesanya accused him of impregnating another woman. Some members of the congregation, who spoke with Saturday Sun, claimed that they were shocked by his sudden return even when he is living with another woman apart from his legally married wife.

The church, which is located at No 18 Ereko Street, Idumota, Lagos, has Rev Moses Adebayo Si­yanbola as the presbyter and minister in-charge of the circuit.


Aggrieved and determined to draw the attention of the church to what they described as an attempt by some leaders of the church to disregard biblical and age-long doctrine, members of the church told Satur­day Sun that the cause of the problem can be traced to the couple’s childless state.

MI went MIA on his fans for over a year .In a new chat with Saturday Beats,he explains why he took a break for so long and why he doesn't need to do music to survive..
“People have been saying whatever they like but I have been blessed that I don’t need to make music to survive. But now is the right time for me to come out because the music is there and the story is there. I stayed away waiting for the right time. Whenever you drive through Lagos or anywhere in the country and you see my face, you would know what I have been doing to survive.”
On competition from his brother Jesse Jagz,he said

“Although I did not release an album in over four years, my younger brother released two in about six months but I was not pressured in any way. The competition between me and Jesse Jagz has been over years ago. We have been doing this for years and he won. I am on a different path making different music. I am on my own path making my own kind of music and my advice to everyone making music is to make songs that feel right. Every artiste should do music to raise social awareness,”

7  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / I prefer Sex before marriage -Actress Seyi edun on: 7-09-2014 07:10 AM


Why many would frown at sex before marriage, upcoming actress and producer in the Yoruba movie sector,Seyi Edun feels differently. She boldly told Potpourri,
I think it’s an individual thing. Once you are an adult and you think you are ready, go for it. Personally, I think sex before marriage is good. Because it will make you know your partner well before going into marriage. So if there is anything you are not comfortable with, you have an ample time to correct it before actually going into the lifetime contract of marriage. Doing it before marriage also reduces adultery and fornication. It is also a good way of studying your partner before you get committed to him or her.

When you take a closer look at songstress Tiwa Savage sitting beside her hubby in the picture below, something will come to mind, her lip colour and her dress doesn’t match.


How can someone wear a dark lipstick in an ‘angelic’ attire.

Dark lipstick is fashionable but it must be completed with a weird outfit and pose.

Tiwa we appreciate your courage and thirst for change but in the future, do consult with fashion consultant before you put on something like this.

This lady is working hard to copy Hollywood celebrities but she is missing the point.

May be she is trying to make a statement that she relocated to Nigeria from England or something like that. ##just saying##.

Tiwa & Teebillz just be yourself and stop copying other celebrities, originality is the key.

Now let’s celebrate her.

At the recently concluded Nigerian Entertainment Awards that held in New York, Tiwa Savage won two big awards as Best Female Artist of the year and Best Pop/R&B artist.

See more photos of Tiwa and her hubby performing together on the stage below




Congrats to her.

13  Forum / Naijapals Base (Metro life) / Rev Anita Speaks: “I Divorced Pastor Chris Bcos He Abandoned Me & Children" on: 7-09-2014 06:21 AM


At last, the estranged wife of Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, the founder of Chris Embassy has spoken on why she ended her marriage.

Rev Anita Oyakhilome in a new statement said that she had been denied her right as a wife and her hubby has distanced himself from her and that she has no option than to call it quit.

There had been media reports that Anita decided to divorce Pastor Chris based on allegations of ‘adultery’ and ‘unreasonable behaviours’ but a copy of the court papers for the divorce process filed at the Principal Registry of the Family Division (PRFD) of the High Court of Justice in possession of THISDAY, revealed that she applied for “divorce on the ground that the marriage has broken down irretrievably.”

In her statement of case in support of petition at PRFD with number FD14001650, Pastor Anita however, accused her husband of having inappropriate relationship with some of his female staff members which many can liken to adultery.

According to the statement, “the wife has discussed with the husband his iappropriate relationship with some of his female staff members. She has explained that this has given her cause for concern. The husband has minimised her worries and taken no step to alleviate her grievances.”

The statement reads in part: “The wife submits that her marriage to the husband has irretrievably broken down and there is no hope of reconciliation. The wife will submit that it is the husband’s unreasonable behaviours which have led to this.

“The husband and the wife are both Pastors. The husband undertakes his work, in the main, in South Africa and Nigeria. The wife lives in the United Kingdom. The wife will say that they have lived separately for 16 years and over this time have drifted apart. The wife has come to realise that the husband will only visit the UK for annual church programmes that he holds rather than to be with this wife. The wife feels that he has been unavailable as a father to their children during their developing years.

“The wife feels that their marriage suffered under the pressure of their work. They would rarely spend time together due to the husband inavailability. Special occasions such as Christmas, Birthdays and family occasions and anniversaries past them by and their rarely spent any time together as a family as the husband was more devoted to his work than he was to them.

“The wife feels that she has been used to portray and enhance the husband’s image as a family man when the reality is that there is no existing relationship between them. She feels that she has been present for official functions simply for his convenience. On occasions she has been copied into his travel itinerary which has been given to him by his staff on a need to know basis.

“The wife has tried to discuss her concerns with the husband. He claims that she is carnal and he is insensitive to her feelings and her needs.”

“As a result of the husband’s attitude to their marriage, the wife will say that he is virtually not recognised as a married man in the ministry. His teachings and beliefs on marriage is that the husband is a master and a controller and the wife will say that his concept of biblical; submission is so extreme that it is impossible for her to meet his expectations. She feels humiliated by the way he treats her in the presence of his close female staff members and she feels that she has been taken for granted which has become unbearably stressful for her.

“The wife will say that the relationship with the husband is non-existent to the point that his itinerary which was announced publicly at the beginning of the year had no provision for time with his family. His staff members who travel with him organise both his personal and professional life without any input from her. The wife will say that she is treated with disregard almost like akin to an intruder.

“The wife feels that she has been mentally, physically and emotionally deprived of the experience of a marital relationship. She feels that the husband has persistently judged her and his communication with her has been unduly harsh. The wife knows that he was hard to please and has been extremely critical.

Hmmmm, Rev Anita must have passed through a lot… 16 years of separation is a bit too long. No wonder she suddenly snapped.

Please remember Pastor Chris & Anita in your prayers.

14  Forum / The Buzz Central / “I Met Odunlade Adekola At CAC Church Night Vigil” – Ruth Abosede Adekola on: 7-09-2014 06:01 AM

The highest paid actor in the Yoruba movie industry, Odunlade Adekola has a secret many of his fans are unaware of and it is the pillar of his marriage, his wife, Mrs Abosede Ruth Adekola.

The mother of Odunlade’s three children in a recent interview briefly narrated how their paths crossed during a church program in Abeokuta. Ruth also explained briefly why she doesn’t make friends.

See interview excerpts below:

How did you meet Odunlade?

We are both members of the same church. We met during a night vigil at Christ Apostolic Church in Sabo area of Abeokuta back in 1995 where we started as friends.



Before the vigil, were you seeing each other?

Yeah! We had been seeing each other for a very long time but that vigil was the first time of talking to each other. He is far older than me; I normally described him as a big brother to me anyway. That was in 1995.

After meeting in 1995, when did the love thing come into it?

Initially, when he approached me that he likes me, that he wouldn’t mind to getting married to me, I was unsure of him, but in the long run, God made everything possible.

You are such a person who doesn’t talk neither attending parties like other celebrities’ wives, why?

That was how I was created. I am a kind of person who doesn’t have appetite for troubles, and I don’t do beyond what I know. You can’t give what you don’t have. I am just cool with the kind of person God made me. As you are seeing me, I have no friends and I really appreciate that.

Why don’t you make friends?

This is because I can’t cope with friends. If I create space for them to move closer to me, they will be feeding me series of gossip that are not real simply because they want to chase me out of my matrimony. My marriage with Odunlade grew and very strong because I chose not to keep any friend. If would leave Odunlade for a very long time even before he became a star if I had kept one.

Wise woman!!!
