Meet Alagba, a giant 330-year-old male land turtle, who is probably the oldest living being in Ogbomosoland and even in the world!

This fact, however, complicates the process to determine the actual age of a local celebrity, popularly called “the elderly one”.

According to reports, Alagba enjoys his life at the palace of Ogbomoso King in Oyo state.

Locals say that Alagba was brought to the palace about three centuries ago by Soun Ikumoyede Ajao, the third Soun of Ogbomoso. Soun Ikumoyede Ajao was reportedly born in the late 16th century and reigned since 1770 to 1791.

Alagba is said to be guarded by the Soun of Ogbomoso himself, and three caretakers: Mr Adeniyi Alagbe, Mr Abdulahi Bello and Baba Iyabo.

They say the animal, whose weight is over 100kg , eats three times a day and its meals are prepared along with people’s food in the palace.

“He usually eats food of three to four people whenever it is eating and finishes one and half bucket of water which he takes once in every three months, “ Mr Bello said. Lol

Mr Alagbe added: “No matter how heavy a person is, Alagba will carry him or her on its back and be moving about, but the incumbent Oba, who cares so much about the well-being of Alagba, stopped people from climbing on its back as the animal got older."

21st August 2012 would remain one of those remarkable dates: I set my eyes on Ify. I reported for CDS group placement at the NYSC zonal office in Port Harcourt and on the same day she reported as a redeployed corp member from Jigawa state.

At first sight, she was simple looking, sitting on the office pavement, reading a novel and waiting for the office to be opened as we reported quite early.

No sooner than we discovered we were to serve in the same CDS group, I quizzed her about a lot of stuff and found out she had known my sister (Ifeoma) all the while.

Keeping a conversation with her was so easy as there was a whole lot to talk about without getting bored. Days turned to weeks and we became inseparable friends.

Soon any day without speaking with her became bad days and friendship later turned to dating. As our relationship deepened, there were only a few things to discover about her as she was barely with me from the onset.

Early this year (2016), things were so smooth between us and then some kind of fear set in (what if I lose her). Right from then the search for the “one ring” began.

One ring to give a lasting sweep, one ring to bind us forever. 29th May 2016, I set her up to an evening date with my wonderful friends and colleagues (@Fourpoints Lagos) and right before them I popped the million dollar question.

I saw my baby broken and overwhelmed by emotions. she said YES . I won an old bet which I won’t give details of.

She’s mine forever and I’m so privileged to have her by my side.

A daring female model who is also a student of the University of Lagos flaunted her luscious bosom in a mind-controlling seductive professional photo-shoot.

Natasha Yamala currently signed to Catch22 Model Management is a 300 level Mass Communication student of the prestigious University of Lagos pursuing a blosom career in the showbiz industry.

According to the skinny girl, she is also into journalism as she runs a blog where she tests her writing skills. She is also a National Diploma holder in the field of Mass Communication from Yaba College of Technology, Lagos.

She has been described as a very determined and ambitious model who goes to an extra length in creating long-lasting impressions in the line of duty.

This accounts for her recent Private photo-shoot that has raised eyebrows on Instagram.
The name Natasha Yamala may sound foreign but she hails from Delta State, South-south part of Nigeria.

“I am the only girl in between two boys, I also love cooking and when I’m not reading a crime/investigation novel, I’m writing" she said in an interview with a local school newspaper.

"Growing up, I was a tom-boy, being the only girl in between two boys, what would you expect? It was fun for me cos they just always seemed so cool and all they did was fascinating to me like climbing trees, doing “ultimate searches” just to win a biscuit or something. But I loved playing with them even if they would always bully but would never let someone else touch me.
I guess it was their job to bully me n still protect me at the same time" she added.
