Lady pranks her parents, says she’s pregnant (photo)

In a bid to play a prank on her parents, a beautiful lady has received a huge shock after she lied to her parents that she’s pregnant. The young lady who decided to prank her parents separately through WatsApp messages shared screenshots of her conversation on social media.
It is common knowledge that it's not a wise decision to play a joke on African parents because of the reaction you might receive from the expensive joke. In this lady’s situation the reactions from both parents were surprising and shocking. The father who we expected to tell her how he would deal with the father of the child just said he would support her and he could not wait to see his grandchild.
However, the mother reacted exactly how an African parent would react. She gave her daughter the history of her life in just one sentence. The mother said: “You don’t have a decent job and you have a child?” In her message to her dad, the young lady was surprised because her father was calm about the prank. She even asked him if he was mad about it, but he told her he loves her no matter what.
What reaction do you think was the right one?

Despite a decent performance against Cameroon in the double-header World Cup qualifier, Gernot Rohr’s men plunged six places in the latest grading
Nigeria have slipped six places below to be placed 44th in the latest edition of the Fifa rankings released on Thursday.
In the month under review, the Super Eagles recorded a decent outing against Cameroon in the World Cup qualifiers. First, they pummelled the Indomitable Lions 4-0 in Uyo before they were held to a 1-1 draw in Yaoundé.
Even at that, Gernot Rohr’s moved southward in the grading - as they now rank Fifth in Africa according to the world football governing body.

Cameroon fell 10 places to no. 45 in the world and sixth in Africa. Nigeria’s next opponent in the race to Russia 2018, Zambia zoomed 18 places up (78th in the world) after recording a double against Algeria.
Cape Verde were the biggest movers (up 47 rank, 264 by points) with Switzerland plummeting after losing 119 points.
Germany dethroned Brazil from the summit of the ranking following two impressive Fifa World Cup qualifying victories over Czech Republic and Norway.

Portugal, for their part, are up three to third and, further down, no fewer than 23 teams jumped ten places or more.

Comedian, Okey Bakassi, has appreciated the men of Nigerian police force for a job well-done.

The actor disclosed that a lady had be threatening members of his family for a while but thanks to men of the police force who were able to trace and arrest the lady. He expressed his joy in a post on Instagram. Nigerian comedian praises police for arresting lady who has been sending him death threats.
I'm happy to say that the Nigerian Police can deliver when they are determined.
One Miss Favour, who has made it her job to trouble my entire family including my aged mother, by sending us death threats via texts and on Social media, was finally traced to the outskirts of Abuja and arrested.....justice can now be served. She and some people suspected to be working with her had planned to abduct my younger sister's son. I've never met her before....Just went to see her at the Police station now. She claims it's the devil's work and wants forgiveness.

yesterday ,it was burning of coffin...Now this again!

Long after appearing in the award-winning blockbuster, ’76, Ramsey Nouah has staged a comeback in another flick, My Wife and I in which he plays an unusual role of a woman.
Hilarious but controversial, the female role has put Nouah on the spot, as many of his fans are asking questions. In this interview, the actor takes his time to explain why he took up the weird character and how he managed to fit into it. He also talks about other issues.

How are you, Ramsey?
I’m good. I’m good.

Your role in ‘My Wife And I’ was kind of weird…
It was weird, yeah.

How did you manage to get into that role?
Trust me, it wasn’t fun at all. It was very awkward. Every time I had to play that part, I was always like ‘ha!’ I hated it. But professional ethics demand that you do stuffs that you need to do.

What was the experience like playing the role of a woman and costumed in female attires?
You know, women are passionate about men trying to be like them. I don’t know what it is. It excites them. Everywhere I go, I remember the red carpet, it was the same thing. All the girls are like ‘how do you feel playing a woman?’ It wasn’t fun, honestly.

But was it challenging?
Of course it was challenging. You have to get into the character. You know…doing what your mum usually does or what your wife does or what your sister does and all of that which is much unlike you. There’s something about it.

Would you describe it as the most challenging role you’ve taken?
Oh, no. Not exactly. It’s not mentally demanding. Don’t get me wrong. It’s just that there are some morals than challenge and that’s why when I was doing it, I had a bit of reservation, but of course I still tried to pull it through. This is like comedy; it’s nothing serious, so we could play with it. Besides, it was pretty hard for me to get those gestures and mannerisms but my colleague helped me out with it.

So, how do your fans relate to you, in response to the movie?
A few of them felt like ‘Arrgh! Gosh! How would you ridicule Ramsey Nouah so much? How would you bring him down so much like that?’ But to me, it’s not bad, to me it’s a professional thing, yeah, it’s what you must do.

Are we getting there in Nollywood? Are we improving or regressing compared to when we started?
Emm… for Nollywood, there have been phases of growth for us. It seemed like we started off on a very good note but everyone is thinking… No, no, no, it’s not as if it’s not a good note, it is, but there was a good start, there was an influx of stories. It became saturated. People got tired and everybody just felt like the industry has reached its peak and there’s nowhere else to go. Hence, that point in time was when everybody began to say ‘are we growing or falling?’ But this is what it is. We had good performances acting, in the beginning. The performance acting became saturated because there were too many movies outside. Technicals didn’t grow from where we began , it was going to get better but mid-way but things got worse. Now, technical is growing. What’s giving birth to good technicals are the cinemas. For you to shoot a movie for cinemas there has to be capital, of course big screen and you have to get everything and every detail right. But there’s a nosedive with the performances now. Where we have gotten to now with good technicals, acting is getting better. There’s need for that bridge for technical and acting to synegise for us to have a smooth and perfect production.
Okay, just another film long after ’76.

Are you choosy or the scripts are not coming?
Oh, we all have to be choosy. You can’t take every script that comes your way. You and I will agree that you’re better off looking for characters that suit or befit you the most, not just pick any story or character that is not challenging,

What do you look out for in a script?
I look out for story to start with, the character I’m playing and the story itself. How important is my character to the entire story? If a story is very ‘killing’, I can’t miss it.

Will you reject a script because a particular actor or actress you’re not comfortable with is in the story?
(Long sigh) It’s rare; it’s rare that I would because it has never happened to me. I’ve never rejected any script because of that except I’m having like a dispute with the person which is rare, maybe I’m not comfortable with the person, maybe we’re apart, maybe we’re having some sort of disagreement and stuff. Yeah, maybe that, otherwise, I’m fine.
You’ve played a twin, you’ve played a soldier and you’ve played a female role.

Do you still have dream roles?
Oh, yeah. There are lots of characters that come to play that we need to act but I’m not going to say it, I’m not going to let it out of the bag. I mean, there are a couple of characters that I’d love to work on; to play many of them, but in due time

What convinced you to take up the role of a woman in My Wife And I?
It’s because of the challenging part. It’s because I’ve never done it before. I think I did something some years back but that one was like I was an undercover, so I dressed like a woman. Those were years back; early 2000. I dressed like a woman; they tied gele and scarf for me and I was like (mimics a female voice) ‘hey what are you talking about?’ I did all of that but this one is different. There’s a message to this one and the message is very simple -what are the conflicts in marriages and why are marriages always having problems?

You’re over 40 years and you’re still looking good. What is the secret?
I think it is just joy from within. A whole lot of people tend to pack up a lot of bad belle , you know, vexing over this and that. That brings about… so just smile; a beautiful smile everyday could take you a long way.
You’ve played in a couple of love scenes in films.

In terms of chemistry, will you play a love scene with just any actress?
If the character demands it, why not? With anybody, why not? But if you’re saying ‘anybody’, umm, it depends on what ‘anybody’ means. Like you play love scene with a female counterpart when it has to be an opposite sex, not the same sex.

What determines the chemistry between co-stars?
It’s internal. There are two things, yeah, there’s a professional ethic that drives whatever you’re doing. Secondly, you have to find that internal energy and connection between you and the other actor. You can also talk about attraction factor.

You have to be attracted to each other first?
Not first. It’s not the first one. Like I said it’s internal. There’s the professional… sometimes it connects, sometimes you have disconnect at some point. It’s normal, it’s natural for it to happen but then, you have to know when to balance it. It’s what is demanded of you professionally.

You’ve been around for a couple of years. What has been your greatest moment as an actor?
I think it’s the moments I spend with my family when we’re out holidaying or going different places. Adventures and stuffs like that are my greatest moments. But one of my greatest moments professionally was when I shot Dangerous Twins with Tade Ogidan, because it was very demanding.

Have you had a low moment?
Yeah. In 2006, a couple of us were blacklisted by the (film) marketers for no good reason. Of course, at that moment there was a turnaround in my faith in the industry. I was like ‘what the hell, why should we have this?’ Hence, when the cinema thing came in I was very happy because it helped curb our industry. Because we lack structure, we lack regulation and regulatory bodies to actually checkmate certain things; a whole lot of things went haywire. That was one of my low points in the industry.

What has a crazy female fan done to you?
Hugged me, kissed me.

Embarrassed you in public?
Yeah, it might be a bit embarrassing but some people just have an expressive way of doing their stuff, you can’t stop them. They make things happen for you; they make your world go round. Sometimes when they do something like that, you find it quite embarrassing. I don’t want to go into the explicit ones.

What has fame done to you?
Fame has had its benefits. Good plays, good moments, umm… and it has its downsides. A lot of people appreciate you, yeah.

It has opened doors and closed doors on your face?
Yeah, it has opened several doors. Like this one we’re doing here, this initiative (ACTDF), it is a door opener for my job.

Has fame closed doors on your face?
No, I wouldn’t say it closed doors on my face. No, not exactly. But, you know, you meet lots of people who tend to appreciate you. Everyone sees you around, all your fans, most especially in Lagos; see you as their ATM machines. All their greetings have to be paid for. For instance, they will greet you ‘Hey, good morning bros, we dey hail o…’ You know you have to drop something, so it’s quite a thorn in the flesh.

Some actors and actresses have delved into music. Is Ramsey Nouah going to sing one day?
I never say ‘never’ to anything. But no, not really.

Harry Kane moved onto 100 goals for Tottenham in all competitions with a somewhat fortunate effort against Everton at Goodison Park on Saturday.
Fresh from netting twice for his country against Malta, the double Premier League Golden Boot winner put Spurs ahead with a miss-hit cross.
England striker Kane, who has been stuck on 99 since netting a hat-trick against Hull City on the final day of last season, finally reached the landmark as a cross from the right drifted over the head of Jordan Pickford and in.
Kane's 100th goal came in his 169th game for Spurs, while it took Thierry Henry - long-time scourge of Tottenham at north London rivals Arsenal - 181 matches to reach the same figure.
It took Harry Kane 169 games to score 100 goals for Spurs; 12 games fewer than Thierry Henry to score 100 for arsenal.

Wife of the deceased and a South African, Toewry Ofoma told NAN at Springs that about 10 South African policemen arrested her husband from his shop on Tuesday, She said the police alleged that he was a drug dealer, but her husband denied the allegations. Her words:“They searched our house, his store and other places, but did not find any substance. In the process, they tortured him to confess where he kept the dr*gs, but my husband insisted he had nothing. “The police used cellophane bag to cover his face and at a point, he was struggling to breathe and became unconscious. By the time they took him to a hospital, he was pronounced dead,” Toewry said. Chairman of Obosi Development Union in Springs Mr. Omezie Onyire expressed shock over the incident. “He was an active member of our union and contributed to its improvement in South Africa,” he said.
