Just saw this and I'm thinking, Nigerians really need to focus their energy on better things. Zahra Buhari is enjoying her husband's money! She is married to a billionnaire for crying out loud! If her husband chooses to buy her a N7M bag, it's his money, not her father's money. People need to let her be, mbok!

Such a cute bag, btw!

From Daily Trust:

Zahra was spotted with her billionaire hubby, Ahmed Indimi and Governor of Imo State, Rochas Okorocha at the Abuja international airport, glowing with smiles rocking her cute expensive bag.

The Hermes Birkin bag which Zahra was rocking is reported to be at least 7 million Naira at the current exchange rate and has caused frenzy on social media with Nigerians concerned about the president’s family frivolous spending.

Read the narration as shared by the female passenger:

She wrote:

"So today I boarded a bus from Ojota going to Oshodi - Maryland. The bus took quite sometime to get filled up with people.

I sat in the front so I was beginning to get uncomfortable waiting for the bus to get filled up then I told the driver I want to get down. He begged me not to, so I sat down.

Few minutes later, he started scratching his groin then before I knew anything, he just brought it out in the open and started rubbing it (Buh he wasn't masturbating).

You needed to have seen the expression on my face at first I was scared, I just brought my earpiece out and started listening to music on my phone he kept on looking at me the session lasted for about 20min. I just sha managed to take a picture of it."

Tiwa Savage and Teebillz may well be on their way to a reconciliation.

About six months after her marital issues, sources close to the singer reveal that she’s ready to reconcile with her estranged husband . Tiwa-savage-and-ex-husband-teebillz are said to have been meeting with older couples and counsellors who have been advising her to give her marriage another chance in respect of the ‘for better, for worse’ vows she took at the altar.

According to a Vanguard source who commented under the condition of anonymity:

"You can take my word for it that a reconciliation is in the offing between Tiwa and Teebillz. She has told people close to her that she misses Tunji, and she wants him back in her life. Also, as their son, Jamal (Jam Jam) is growing older, Tiwa wants to ensure that he has a father figure around. Of course, she has also given a condition that Teebillz gets help so that all the issues that led to his public meltdown will not happen again."

However, there are also reports that Tiwa’s mom was badly hurt by the negative things Teebillz said about her on Instagram, but she’s ready to forgive and forget all because all she really wants is her daughter’s happiness.

However, Teebillz is presently not in Nigeria, as he had traveled out of the country shortly after the couple’s fight in April. But the good news is that the hermit guy has quietly returned to his Instagram page which he had closed down after their much publicized fight.

The long arm of the law finally caught up with members of a notorious kidnap gang operating in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, on Wednesday, October 12, 2016.

The nine members of the gang, who were apprehended by the operatives of the Inspector-General of Police Special Intelligence Response Team in a five-hour raid that day, said they were so efficient in their criminal operations that they once kidnapped four victims on the same day.
The afternoon raid led to the arrest of Daniel Gabriel (33), Alaso Igodo (25), Akeodi Aselemi (34), Ayibinmotei Livinus (25), Anikuroka Marshal (33), Biebele Elijah (34) Efiye Anda (34), Daniel Lessor (31) and Isaac Reuben (27), all living within the Port Harcourt metropolis.

The police said the gang was responsible for most of the kidnappings that took place within GRA Phase 2, Port Harcourt, Borokiri General Area and YKC axis of Woji in Rivers State.

According to Punch, the string of events which led to the apprehension of the nine suspects started with the abduction of a woman identified as Mrs. Okotie, who was kidnapped few weeks ago opposite the Royal House of Grace Church in Port Harcourt.

The gang was said to have abducted her in the Mazda car they used as operational vehicle.

The victim told the police that she had told the suspects that she was not feeling fine but they did not listen to her.

Fortunately for Mrs. Okotie, the car broke down along the way and the leader of the gang named Blackie, called for another vehicle, a Nissan Primera, which arrived shortly after.

“But they did not know that we had got information about them. They were on their way to the Ornage Waterside when we intercepted them. As soon as they saw us, they fled and abandoned the woman in the car along with one of their rifles,” the source said.

Few days after the botched kidnapping of Mrs. Okotie, IRT operatives who were following up on a lead, arrested Gabriel, a taxi driver, around 2.pm on October 12.

When Gabriel, an Akwa-Ibom indigene living at Navy Market Borikiri, Port-Harcourt was taken in for questioning, he confessed that he had personally been involved in 15 kidnaps in the last few months in the state.

He then led the police to his house where five members of the gang were already planning another kidnap.

"When we got to his house, we arrested five of his gang members and from there, we proceeded to Enugu Waterfront where we arrested Anikuroka Marshal, the gang’s armourer. The suspects also identified Diobele Elijah and Akodi Aselemi as their spies who go around town scouting for victims. They confessed to have three AK47 rifles, two pistols, which they use in their operations," a police source said.

In one of the kidnaps carried out by the gang, on August 10, 2016, a pastor, Mrs. Luis Ubah and one Mr. Chika Ezenwa were abducted. The same day, the gang kidnapped a business woman, Mrs. Ubah in her store, they also grabbed another victim identified as Ezenwa who was with Ubah at the time.

The four victims were taken by the gang to the Indoki Estate Waterfront.

The source explained that while on their way to the waterfront, the gang encountered a police team and instantly opened fire on the policemen.

"Inspector David Ijosi and one Corporal Dike Ledee were injured by bullets in the attack. One was hit in the leg while another was hit in the neck and the kidnappers escaped into the Isaka creeks in Okrika," the source said.

Soon after, the gang made contact with Ubah’s husband, Bishop Prince Ubah, from whom they demanded a N50m ransom for her freedom.

During the ensuing negotiation, the ransom for the release of the bishop’s wife was reduced to N2.8m and a place was agreed on for the family to drop the ransom.

But in a dramatic turn of events, when two brothers of the bishop, Onyeka Ani and Pastor Okezie Akara, took the money to the agreed place on August 25, 2016, 15 days after Mrs. Ubah was kidnapped, the gang members decided to release her along with Ezenwa but kidnapped the two brothers instead.

The police said they then demanded another N1m ransom from the bishop for his brothers. But N750, 000 was eventually paid for their release.

The police said investigation on the scale of the operations of the gang was still on and that they were making efforts to arrest other members of the gang who are now underground.

Kamal Ajiboye, Davido's manager, says dance queen, Kaffy, is just seeking for attention which Davido's crew is not ready to give her. In an exclusive chat with Saturday Beats, he said:

"I am not aware of any problem between Davido and Kaffy. Davido said that he didn’t need dancers for his performance and I don’t see how that is a problem. We saw what she posted online but we chose to ignore it because we are too busy to comment on such. Davido does not have any particular dancer that he works with. During the particular show, while he was about to perform, the organisers wanted to include dancers with his performance and he declined because the stage would not be big enough for him and the dancers to perform. I don’t know how that should be anybody’s problem..

"During a show that he had at Eko Hotel, he had about 30 dancers on stage with him. If he does not have regard for dancers, would he have employed their services? People just like to seek for attention and we would not give it to them. The only thing I can think of is that she is just seeking for attention. I mean they wanted to put dancers on his stage and all Davido said was that he did not want. How is that anyone’s problem? I think you should call Kaffy and ask if she has any problem with Davido."

Earlier in the week, Kaffy had blasted Davido in a video in which she claimed he disrespected her dancers and ordered them off the stage. She called him names and also sent a message out to other artists who do not give dancers the respect she claims they deserve.

However, Davido had responded that he was shocked when he saw the video and had no problems whatsoever with Kaffy.

Krzysztof Wegrzyn from Poland was born with a haemangioma – a benign tumour in the blood vessels of his tongue.

When he was a young child, doctors made two attempts to remove the growth that filled his entire mouth but surgery had to be abandoned due to massive blood loss.

Krzysztof is now aged 18 and the tumour has continued to grow so it is blocking the airway at the back of his mouth and he now struggles to speak.

But there is a chance that he could still live a completely normal life.

Speaking to local reporters, Krzsysztof said:

"I saw a boy from Norway who underwent an operation there and he looked great. You could not see that he had ever been ill. This is my biggest dream but I do not want to be disappointed."

He and his family are now trying to raise funds so they can afford a trip to Germany, where specialist doctors can remove the tumour.

Expert medics at the Zentrum Klinik fur Vasculare Maltformationen in Eberswalde, Brandenburg, have said that they would be able to help.

They are currently raising the money to travel to the country for the operation and the cost has been estimated at £47,550.

It is reported that they are almost halfway to their goal with local charities helping them edge ever nearer to their target.

If Krzysztof manages to have the lifesaving treatment he said he would like to finish his studies, pass his driving test and train to be a chef.

An exclusive list of 30 people arrested by the Nigerian military for allegedly helping the Boko Haram to sell rustled cows has been obtained by Premium Times.

The list include at least four serving soldiers, two police officers, and some members of the civilian-JTF

Lucky Irabor, the Theatre Commander of the Operation Lafiya Dole, confirmed the arrest at a press conference in Maiduguri on Wednesday.

"Those who have been aiding and abetting Boko Haram by way of encouraging cattle rustling ; so far we have arrested 30 of them, many are civilians and we have among them four soldiers and two policemen. They are being investigated and the outcome of the investigation will be brought to your notice."

He however did not say that the Boko Haram rustled the cows in the territory they still control, sneaking them into Maiduguri, to sell and buy other goods.

The military has since suspected that the insurgents are able to do this and raise fund for their cause based on the active connivance of security operatives and relevant civilians. Subsequent investigation led to the arrest of the 30 people.

The four soldiers arrested include Captain A. A. Hussaini, the operations officer of 195 Battalion in charge of Mafa Local Government Area where Boko Haram still control some areas. The council is a major route into Maiduguri from the North and East.

Another suspect is Lieutenant I. H. Irro, a liaison with 152 Task Force battalion. The other two junior officers are Staff Sergeant Alexander Chiegwe, the guard commander of the main check point from Mafa into Maiduguri, and Lance Corporal Yakpon Dona.

The policemen arrested are Usman Mohammed and Stephen Odoh.

The suspects also include three members of the Civilian-JTF. They are Babakkura Ali, chairman of Kasuwan Shanu branch; Bashir Abbas, the chairman of Sector 2 and Modu 2Star, a member from Mafa town.

The arrested civilians include members of the Livestock Traders Association, some herdsmen and a representative of the Shehu of Borno.

All the suspects are accused of being involved in castle rustling.

Top members of the Civilian-JTF confirmed the arrest of their colleagues. They, however, said they do not have the full details of their arrest.

Cattle rustling had become a major source of revenue for Boko Haram.

Margaret Boemer went for a routine ultrasound 16 weeks into her pregnancy with her third child. The ultrasound revealed that there was something seriously wrong with the baby and that she had a sacrococcygeal teratoma.

"It was very shocking and scary, because we didn't know what that long word meant or what diagnosis that would bring," Bormer said.

Sacrococcygeal teratoma is a tumor that develops before birth and grows from a baby's coccyx, the tailbone.

Unfortunately, this was not the first bad news of Boemer's pregnancy. Originally, she had been pregnant with twins, but lost one of the babies before her second trimester. It was a shock at 16 weeks to learn of her daughter's rare birth defect.

With a large tumor stealing the blood supply, Boemer's fetus was becoming more ill each day. Something had to be done. Although other doctors had advised her to terminate the pregnancy, Dr. Darrell Cass, co-director of Texas Children's Fetal Center and associate professor of surgery, pediatrics and obstetrics and gynecology at Baylor College Medicine, and his team told her about another possibility: fetal surgery

She was 23 weeks and 5 days pregnant, when Cass performed the emergency fetal surgery. By this time, the tumor was nearly larger than the fetus. Cass and Dr. Oluyinka Olutoye, his partner surgeon, operated for about five hours. .

The surgical team removed the bulk of the tumor. When they finished their operation, LynLee was returned to the womb and her mother's uterus was sewn shut. Boemer was on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy. She made it to 12 weeks to nearly 36 weeks -- full term -- when Lynlee was born for the 2nd time via C-section on June 6.

Immediately, she was whisked away to the neonatal intensive care unit for an evaluation, but after this initial checkup, she was deemed healthy and transferred to the nursery. LynLee recovered in the NICU and weeks later, arrived in her family home.

A 41-year-old senior pastor at the Kingdom of Godfire Church in Bilston, Donald Nwachuckwu, has been jailed for 8 years for using his position to identify West Africans who are in the U.K illegally and were prepared to pay up to £6,500 to stay in the U.K.

About £153,000 passed through bank accounts run by the pastor under a false name before he was arrested. Clemence Marijeni, 43, was the master forger who created the fake documents that allowed the holder to stay in the UK and claim benefits. He was jailed for ten years.

Olatunji George, 44 – a law student who had completed a module on immigration law, administered the operation and also got 10 years behind bars. He claimed to be paid up to £1,000-a-time to prepare packages of the correct documents and fill in the necessary paperwork.

Jozef Puzo, aged 28, was jailed for five years. He provided the final piece of the jigsaw by earning up to £750-a-time finding women and men from the Czech and Slovakian communities prepared to take part in the scam.

Both he and George are now on the run after fleeing during their trial but were convicted and sentenced in their absence. Aishatu Ibrahim, 25, has also gone missing but was given three and a half years and another defendant –Idris Agia, 31, was arrested moments before flying out of the country to Nigeria just days ago.

He was jailed for three and a half years. The other five defendants were each jailed for between two and three and a half years. All defendants were found guilty of immigration offences.

Police in Akwa Ibom State has arrested 11 persons suspected to be involved in child trafficking in the state, Punch reports.


Mr. Murtala Mani, the state Commissioner of Police, said on Friday that members of a syndicate which specialised in trafficking babies were arrested by the anti-kidnapping unit of the Nigeria Police.

He said a woman, Comfort Edem, was arrested on October 13, 2016 following intelligence information that she had been running an illegal maternity home for the purpose of trading in children.

Mani, who said this through the Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Cordelia Nwawe, added that the suspects sold the trafficked children at N450,000.

He revealed that the suspected child traffickers went after pregnant teenagers and negotiated the price of the unborn children with them, and that once the babies were born, they would be given to the traffickers.


In his words,

"Information at our disposal led to the interception of a syndicate which traffic babies in Akwa Ibom. On October 13, 2016, the anti-kidnapping of the Nigeria Police arm was able to intercept a woman who owns an illegal maternity home.

"She specializes in making sure that she takes in pregnant teenagers. Once the babies are born, those babies are sold and trafficked out of Akwa Ibom. We have intercepted her; she is in here in front of you.

"As a matter of fact, the girls had reliably informed us that this is not the first time they had sold their babies at the sum of N450,000."

Mani also paraded another syndicate who sold children for N500,000. He explained that the police had been to rescue a two-month old girl who had been sold to a woman in Rivers State.

Mr. Joseph Izu, the 3SC footballer, who was shot on Sunday by the Joint Military Task Force operatives (read here), was killed near a cultists’ shrine.

The Commander, 2 Brigade of the Nigerian Army, Port Harcourt, Brig. Gen. Hamisu Hassan, said investigation was still ongoing to determine what Izu was doing at the shrine, Punch reports. Izu, who was a central midfielder with 3SC, was on Sunday, shot at a close range in Okaki community in the Ahoada West area.

It was also learnt that Izu had pleaded with JTF operatives that he was a footballer before he was shot.

But Hassan explained that Izu was killed when troops, who were on a "confidence building patrol", moved into cultists’ hideout in Okaki village, adding that the place he (footballer) was found was isolated.

Hassan said,

"Information available to the patrolling troops indicated the presence of suspected cultists in Okaki village. The troops moved in and raided the suspected criminal hideout. One person lost his life at the hideout while several others fled.

"Later, it was confirmed that the person who lost his life was a Nigerian footballer, identified as Mr. Izu Joseph. Nevertheless, investigation is ongoing to determine what he (Izu) was doing at the cultist’s shrine at that time.”

He added that the Brigade would continue to monitor the operations against cultists, kidnappers and other criminals to make Rivers State safe.

An alleged trafficker of sex workers, Eyambe Miliki Sona, has been arrested in Cameroon in the process of trafficking four young Nigerian girls to Russia as sex workers.

The young girls whose ages range between 19 to 24 years came all the way from Nigeria after being promised travel VISAS to Moscow. One of the girls Ewangi Patriarch 19 year old recounts that Eyambe Miliki Sona directed them to Cameroon by phone. Upon arrival they were lodged in a single room while waiting for their travel documents. The four girls got impatient after waiting for two weeks and not receiving any positive sign of the alleged trip to Russia.

The local Divisional Officer, Tambe Thomas Tabot and his collaborators received a tip- off from an informant. Investigations zoomed on Eyambe Miliki Sona who was found in possession of fake documents.

After further inquiries, the accused appears to have been involved in trafficking sex workers to Europe.

Eyambe Miliki Sona is presently in police custody while the four girls will be handed to the Nigerian Consulate for repatriation to Nigeria.

The three House of Representatives members who were exonerated on Tuesday of the sexual misconduct allegations levelled against them by the United States Government are set to file a $1bn suit against the U.S government and its agents.



The three members include; House Deputy Chairman, Committee on Petroleum Resources, Mr. Terse Mark-Gbillah of Benue, Mr. Samuel Ikon of Akwa Ibom, and Mr. Mohammed Garba-Gololo of Bauchi states.

A former US Ambassador to Nigeria, Mr. James Entwistle, had accused the three lawmakers of committing the alleged misconduct during a visit to the U.S last April for a leadership training programme, prompting the Nigerian legislature to call for an investigation.

The House had exonerated the lawmakers on Tuesday after a report by its Joint Committees on Ethics/Privileges and Foreign Relations found no wrongdoing on their part.

According to Saturday Punch, the three lawmakers would immediately institute a legal action against their accusers in the US.

This will be in addition to demanding what he called "internationally-published apology".

He expressed regrets that they would be unable to visit the US physically to file the suit because their visas, which were withdrawn in the wake of the "false allegations", had not been restored.

Mark-Gbillah gave details of the steps the members would take, saying,

"We won’t let the matter go like that because our reputation has been defamed internationally and there is also the cancellation of our visas to consider, a decision that has still not been reversed. In the American archives, the records have not been set straight. As a matter of fact, this has already affected the members of one of our families.


"We will be seeking legal redress in the US; we are going to take the hotel to court, the Marriot Hotel, the parent brand, the place we stayed (in the US). We are going to take the (former US) ambassador himself and the US State Department, who are his employers to court. We are going to be taking the local organisers of the programme to court as well.

"We will be seeking among other things, an internationally-published apology to us as individuals, to the National Assembly and to Nigeria by the US Government. We are going to be seeking damages from all concerned parties and right now, we are looking at suing in the region of $1bn.

Governor of Plateau State, Simon Lalong, has banned the activities of the Islamic Movement of Nigeria, otherwise known as Shiites group, in the state.

This followed after Wednesday’s clash between members of the sect and some youths in Angwan Rogo area of Jos North.
The youths had attacked members of the sect, who were said to be celebrating the annual Ashura festival, marking the death of a grandson of Prophet Muhammed. In the process, the youths were said to have demolished the sect’s Hussaniyya (worship centre).

However, in a statement in Jos on Friday, Lalong said that the activities of the sect could no longer be tolerated in the state. In the statement signed by the Secretary to the Government of Plateau State, Mr. Rufus Bature, Lalong said that the ban was necessary to sustain the prevailing peace in the state.

This comes after Kaduna State government banned the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN), sighting that it was a security threat.

Who did this to this poor animal? Sadistic people roaming the streets... Smh.


A dead deer was found on a cycle path with a tree branch forced up its rear and a McDonald's bag over its head.

The sickening discovery was made in Slough, Berkshire, West of London by a passerby who was out walking when he stumbled upon the mutilated animal.
Mr Chatterjee, of Slough, Berks, said:

"I thought it was somebody's dog just relaxing there but it was very disturbing and disgusting. It did shake me up. The poor animal, the face was covered with a McDonalds paper bag, it was completely covered and there were flies all over it.

"The worse part of it was it looked like somebody had forced a tree branch up the backside. That was really gross.

"It was very disturbing that was why I did not share the picture, even to my wife. "It was very sadistic. Why would you do that to an animal?"

The deer was mutilated and dumped on a cycle path.

After contacting the RSPCA, Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, software company worker Mr Chatterjee was told to stay with the animal only to be called back saying it could not be collected until the next day as there was no one available.
An eight-year-old girl, also of Slough, was left traumatised when she found the body of a dog half an hour later.

The dog had a rock forced into its mouth and a concrete slab dropped on it, just over a mile away from where the deer was discovered.

by Islamist Boko Haram insurgents in April 2014 were released to the Nigerian government.


According to their sources, the girls were picked up by military helicopter from Banki area of Borno state where Boko Haram militants reportedly dropped them off. It was reported that 18 of the 21 girls had babies by Boko Haram members and that 4 Boko Haram members were swapped in exchange for the 21 Chibok girls.



However, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo has said, contrary to reports, that only one of the 21 released Chibok girls has a baby. On Thursday evening, Osinbajo led some top government officials to visit the girls at the DSS Medical Centre, Airport Road, Abuja, where they are currently receiving medical attention. The Vice-President disclosed to journalists that the Federal Government did not swap any Boko Haram detainee for the release of the girls.

"There was no exchange of any kind. There was no swap of any kind. Even when we started negotiations, we said we would consider all options available to us. Absolutely, there was no exchange of any kind", he said.

When asked if the government would consider a swap for the release of the remaining girls still in captivity, Osinbajo said the government would look at all options and weigh them carefully.

"In doing so, however, the security and safety of the country would be considered. In the process of negotiation, we will look at all options and we will weigh the options carefully and decide what to do. But what has happened and the process we have begun is one which has not involved any type of swap of Boko Haram commanders or any militant in any way.

"That is a very good turn of event. We believe that in the next few days and months, we will be bringing in more of these girls using exactly the same kind of negotiation and the same template that we used".

Osinbajo also explained that the International Red Cross did not take part in the negotiations but was involved in the process of bringing the girls back because the government needed the organisation’s medical expertise.

"The Swiss government worked with us in the process of negotiation, but the Red Cross is not involved in the negotiation. But in taking the girls back, of course, we worked with the Red Cross because we were unable to take our own medical team. The Red Cross was not involved at all in the process of negotiation. It was the Swiss government, our own officials such as the DSS, intelligence and the military", he said.

The vice-president also said only one of the 21 released girls had a baby. He said the girls were in good health, considering the circumstances in which they lived in captivity and that they would continue to receive medical attention while their parents would join them on Friday.

On Thursday October 13th, the Katsina Emirate Council declared that the marriage between 14-year-old girl, Habiba Isa, and the Emir of Katsina, Alhaji Abdulmumin Usman, was irreversible.


According to the council, the marriage and Isa’s conversion to Islam were voluntarily and willingly entered into by the girl, Punch reports.

The council told officials of the Katsina State chapter of the Christian Association of Nigeria, who visited Usman in his palace over the issue, that there was no evidence that the 14-year-old girl was forced to act against her wish.The family of Isiyaku Tanko of Warkaza community in the Kudun Kankara Local Government Area of Katsina State on Wednesday alleged that Usman forcefully abducted their 14-year-old daughter and forced her into marrying him.

She was said to have been abducted on August 16, 2016, by one Jamilu Lawal, an aide of the emir, who worked in the palace. She was converted to Islam and held incommunicado. Isa is expected to clock 15 years on Saturday, October 15, 2016, and would have resumed school for the new academic term, but for her abduction.

She was said to have passed her Junior Secondary School Certificate Examination and was expected to start Senior Secondary School.

The incident was blown open when the father of the victim lodged a complaint with Stefanos Foundation, a humanitarian civil rights organisation, which took over the matter.

Isa was allowed to appear before CAN officials and others in the palace on Thursday, and was asked three questions by the Kaora Katsina, Alhaji Nuhu Abdulkadir, on behalf of the emirate council. She was asked whether she was forcefully converted to Islam, to which she replied no.

She was also asked whether the emirate council or any other person forced her into the marriage with the emir, to which she also answered no...

Popular Nigerian OAP and vlogger, Toke Makinwa, came under fire for advising people in their 20s to have fun, do crazy things, and enjoy life, get drunk, kiss strangers, have one night stands, e.t.c., in one of vlogs.

This is a response to Toke's vlog from medical doctor, Uju Okorie:

Some things are unforgivable.

They stir the dead in their graves, make eyes run rivers of tears and cause cardiac spasms.
One of such things has just made me suspend my Facebook holiday to let my pen bleed away the sorrow in my heart.

Here's my letter to Toke Makinwa, a Nigerian vlogger who recently advised the youths of my nation who happen to find themselves between the ages of 17 and 24, to do crazy things, kiss strangers, have one night stands, visit nightclubs, sleep till 12.00 noon and live off their parents.

Madam Toke, the only reason I have chosen to speak to you at this time is that you claim to be a church-goer and Jesus is a name that is not far from your parlance.

If you were a practising satanist, your words would have been consistent with your worldview and I would have no reason to be upset with you.
But, no Madam, you quote the bible with one corner of your lips and then speak perverse things with the other.
That is the definition of sacrilege.

Madam Toke, ours is a developing country with loads of challenges and roadblocks, a nation struggling in the deep recesses of poverty, disease, debt and unemployment.

Sanity should have told you that the youth in our country are in desperate need of knowledge, life-changing information, motivation and skills.
Perhaps it did, but you had no ears to listen.
So, you dedicated your vlog to the propagation of destructive nonsense.

Madam, as I watched you tell young people to live off their parents and uncles at age 24, my heart broke in two.

Toke, Mhairi Black, a 22 year old is a minister of parliament in Scotland.

A 19 year old, Malala Yousafzai, is a Nobel Laureate.

Mark Zuckerberg, at age 20, established the billion dollar social media platform largely from which the youths you are leading astray have accessed the rubbish you put out there.

Dr Ola Orekunrin at 21, graduated medical school and went ahead to establish West Africa's first air ambulance service: Flying doctors Nigeria.

Ibukun Awosika started her business at 26. I am certain she was not having one night stands between the ages of 17 and 24.

Shame on you, Madam!
The anaemia ravaging the body of the beautiful young woman......
