A Nigerian clergyman, Apostle Chris Omashola, has declared that rave of the moment and ‘Soapy’ crooner, Azeez Fashola aka Naira Marley is a demon as part of his prophecies for the year 2020.
The pastor claimed that God told him that the singer, is satanic and a demon. He also cautioned that he must repent before it is too late.
The pastor known as Apostle Chris Omashola, posted his prophecies on Twitter this morning in which he said God told him that Naira Marley’s songs are demonically inspired to destroy the destiny of Nigerian youths.
He wrote:
”In 2020, God told me, Naira Marley is a Demon, He is Satanic and should repent before it’s too late. His songs are demonically inspired to destroy the Destiny of The Youths of this generation, Nigerian youths should desist from calling themselves Marlians” he wrote.
In his response, the singer retweeted a screenshot of a leaked sex tape of the Pastor with one Princess Tamaratokoni Okpe who is said to he his church member.
He wrote:
“To all Naira Marley fans aka Marlian Please what’s your final judgment on this #NairaMarley and Apostle Chris Omashola case”
The singer who has a huge following majorly among young people has had a memorable musical year. His songs Soapy, PXTA, Tesumole, to mention a few turned out to be instant hits and right now are getting massive positive reception from his fans especially with the accompanying dance steps even though many critics are of the opinion that his songs mostly contain vulgar or controversial lyrics and objectify women.
Although Naira Marley has a huge fanbase who refer to themselves as ‘Marlians,’ many critics think his music poses as a huge negative influence on the teaming Nigerian youth population by promoting drugs, alchohol and sex.
Apart from his musical craft, the singer has had his negative run with the law, having spent a few months in prison custody following allegations of credit card fraud leveled against him by Nigeria’s anti graft agency, Economic and Financial Crimes Commision (EFCC). He wad also recently larraigned before a Lagos Hight Court for allegedly stealing a Toyota Camry. Although the singer never showed up in court to take his plea, rather opting for an out of court settlement when the presiding judge threatened to issue a warrant for his arrest.
Naira Marley may have lots of controversies surrounding his music and personal life but it is worthy of note that he has made a huge mark in the Nigerian music scene within a short time with his creative ingenuity and has proven that his music has come to stay.

#BBNaija: Stampede, fights and lack of organization mar Big Brother Naija auditions nationwide

The race to the Big Brother Naija 2019 house kick started on February 1, 2019 with auditions holding at various locations nationwide.
The auditions holding in Lagos, Ibadan, Benin, Port Harcourt, Warri, Enugu and Abuja had large crowds of young Nigerians in attendance. They are all gunning for one thing - a chance to compete in the BetNaija sponsored reality TV show for the N45 million price money and instant fame.
Due to the large turnout of people, the organizers of Big Brother Naija seem to be overwhelmed. Over 15,000 turned out in Lagos alone. Talk Parlour News correspondent in Lagos reported that security men deployed to secure the entrance at D'Podium event center, Lagos where at several times overpowered by enthusiastic youths who forcefully broke the barricade and trooped into the audition venue in droves. This was a certain security risk because these invading youths were not put though proper scrutiny before they gained access into the audition venue. Some could have concealed improvised explosive devices or could be carrying carrying dangerous weapons.
Pockets of fights broke out occasiinally at the venue of the auditions and some people were seen scalling the fence to gain entry into the venue. Our correspondent witnessed an incident where the security aided people who scalled the fence by helping them scale down the walls into the venue...

Who are the real men controlling Nigeria? Some say Nigeria is in auto pilot but others believe a cabal is in control of the affairs of the country and blocking President Buhari a chance to get a clear view of situations in the country.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dm3G37enwsA

By Jerry King Nwobodo
Many tales abound of a pseudo-human wearing the garb of our beloved president, assuming his posture and ultimately ardoning his looks.
What a bold assertion that Nigeria is being ruled by an imposter.
Could this be true or is this a fabrication from the pit of hell?
Let us examine the very foundation of this notion. From the begining, Gov. Ayo Fayose has been very vocal as a voice opposed to the government of President Buhari. During Buhari's one hundred and something days in the UK for medical treatment, Gov. Fayose made a bold statement. He said Buhari was dead and in the mortuary. He even claimed he had picture evidence.
Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) aslo claimed that Muhammadu Buhari died in London. He detailed how the some people in an attempt to preserve the northern grip of power, went scouring for a body double.
Their search landed them in Sudan where the found one Jibrin who fit the body build and physique of president Buhari. He was recruited and worked on by plastic surgeons who created a perfect double for the allegedly late president.
Fast forward a few months later, Buhari made a triumphant return to his country, looking healthy and ready to continue his mandate.
But there was something fishy - the nation was never briefed about the nature of Buhari's illnes neither were the details of the financial burden the nation had to bear on account of the illness of their beloved president ever divulged. Buhari looked more healthy, had facial hair, could see without glasses and appeared 20 years younger. Even the size of his ears varied in great length from previously.
While cross section of Nigerians were visibly excited that the King of the jungle was back to his domain, a few people remained skeptical about the miraculous recovery of president Buhari from what some people refered to as poisonong.
On the president's return, he couldn't access his office as rats had infested his space. Of course when a lion leaves for so long, rats feel so comfortable. But the story many ordinary Nigerians believe is that the president's finger could not open the electronic door in Aso Rock. Some say the president had to stay away from his presidential office until technicians could recalibrate the electonic door to match the new occupant of Aso Rock.
There were also reports the Nigeria's First Lady, Aisha Buhari was pictured weeping over the assumed death of her husband but many news orgznizations were eirher warned or persuaded against carrying the story.
It is also curious than when Buhari's son who had a bike accident returned from treatments in Germany, his body language gave out the fact that the man in Buhari's garb wasn't his father. While he was emotional upon sighting his mom, he was largely indifferent on signting his supposed father and vice versa.
Though it sounds like tales by moonlight, it is largely believable and a lore on the streets as many Nigerians have come to believe the story that a man named Jibril from Sudan is occupying the Presidential Villa.
To further compound the situation, a Nigerian diplomat believed to be responsible for contacting Jibril in Sudan was assasinated in Khartoum on orders from Abuja.
The question on the lips of many is why the government has refused to come clean on the health of the president and how much it cost the nation for his treatment abroad.
Why was the attachee in Khartoum murdered just about the time he was about to say the truth concerning the Jibrin saga.
Right now many Nigerians are convinced that the occupant of Aso Rock is not the man many people voted for. More questions are being asked but no answer seems to be forth coming.

A prankter known as Zion Ubani was arrested by the police in Lagos for pranking a lady into removing her clothes in public.
The unsuspecting lady was approached by the prankster who posed as a caring stranger and told her that a scorpion was crawling on her cloth. The lady was forced to remove her clothes when Ubani told her that the scorpion had entered into her body.
According to Ubani, the police arrested him for this prank but he was soon released. It is not clear if the lady in question is going to press charges.

Emerging information reveals that Nigeria was duped to the tune of over N137 billion in the purchase of 12 tucano aircraft’s from the United States without approval from the National Assembly.

President Buhari had without legislative appropriation approved the purchase of the 12 war planes from the United States at a cost of $496 million.

Interestingly, the market price of the aircraft $10.2million (bulk purchase) since we are purchasing 12 planes it should cost a total of $122.4million but Nigerians were charged $496m instead of $122m.

This means that Nigeria was duped tonthr tune of $373.6m (N137,484,400,000).

‘https://talkparlour.com/2018/04/28/smallville-star-allison-mack-in-hot-soup-over-mxivm-sex-cult-recruitment-scandal/

Remember Chloe Sullivan from Smallville?

She has been fingered as a recruiter for MXIVM sex cult, luring actresses into a secret cult to become sex slaves for cult leader, Keith Raniere.
Raniere was arrested near Puerto Vallarta, Mexico and has been charged with sex trafficking and forced labor conspiracy .

Allison Mack has also been arrested and pit in an electronically controlled house arrest.
She has been accused for recruiting actresses into the sex cult. She is said to have sent an invitation to Emma Watson.
Actress Samia Shoaib went on Megyn Kelly TODAY to share her experience of being wooed by Allison Mack into NXIVM. Shoaib’s story comes in the wake of Mack’s indictment, alongside alleged sex cult leader Keith Raniere, on charges of sex trafficking conspiracy, sex trafficking, and conspiracy to commit forced labor. Mack was released on a $5 million bond on Tuesday to electronically monitored house arrest.


The news that an ex-Smallville actress is being charged as a sex cult second-in-command has shed new light on old tweets, in which Mack appears to be appealing to actresses and influencers on behalf of her unique cause. Mack targeted high-profile women like Emma Watson—she @’d the A-lister multiple times, at one point writing, “I’m a fellow actress like yourself & involved in an amazing women’s movement I think you’d dig. I’d love to chat if you’re open.”
Samia Shoaib told Page Six on Saturday that Mack targeted her after the two met at a 2013 NBC audition. Shoaib, who appeared in The Sixth Sense and Sex and the City, described Mack as “fragile and gaunt,” but admitted, “I wish I could tell you alarm bells went off, but they really didn’t. She was a very sweet girl.”
Shoaib went into more detail on Thursday, describing Mack’s attempts to recruit her to JNess, the NXIVM women’s group that Mack raved about on her personal website and in video testimonials. Shoaib told Megyn Kelly that, within days of meeting Mack, the Smallville actress had sent her “dozens of emails” and talked up her women’s movement. Mack also put Shoaib on an email list through which she received various invitations, including one to a 2015 gathering that billed Mack as a speaker and “leader of JNess.”
In retrospect, Shoaib is entirely convinced that Mack’s rapid-fire befriending was a recruitment tactic. “We got close very quickly, and looking back it was a very contrived effort, but at the time she seemed so sincere,” the actress told Kelly. While Mack didn’t go into detail about NXIVM to her new friend, she told Shoaib at the time that “she lived upstate in a communal situation.” Until recently, Rainiere and his followers reportedly lived in a “compound” north of Albany.
Mack was arrested Friday and released Wednesday on a $5 million bail as she faces charges of sex trafficking. The actress stands accused of recruiting for Keith Raniere's NXIVM, which allegedly branded women as "slaves" and forced them into sex with the society's 57-year-old leader.
Shoaib says she met Mack in 2013 at a pilot audition in New York and was at first excited by their instant connection.
"I was in a fairly vulnerable time, I'd had a traumatic experience and I was drinking too much, and I was looking for help with that," she told Kelly. "She said, 'Ah, I have an alternative' (to AA)."

On Friday April 20, the world was shocked to receive news of the death of international EDM DJ Tim Bergling aka Avicii who was doing dead in Muscat, Oman.
Also on the same day, Tanzanian bootylicious model and award winning video vixen, Agnes died after suffering from pneumonia and low blood pressure.

https://talkparlour.com/2018/04/24/swedish-dj-avicii-and-tanzanian-bootylicious-model-agnes-masogange-born-and-died-on-the-same-day/

Surprisingly, both Avicii and Agnes were born on the same day, September 8, 1989 and happened to die on the same day. Could this be a mere coincidence or were their destinies written in the stars?
RIP Avicii and Agnes.

Salmoneus:
What will eventually kill you is currently smiling at you in your household....you will not live forever....

No one lives forever but it is better to stop any habit that is dangerous to your health.
RIP Avicii

Swedish DJ, and music producer, Tim Bergling aka Avicii has died.
The singer died on Friday afternoon, April 20, 2018 in Oman,

His reply broke the news of his death via a statement which read:
“It is with profound sorrow that we announce the loss of Tim Bergling, also known as Avicii.”

The singer recently suffered from health problems including pancreatitis, caused by excessive drinking. He had his gallbladder and appendix surgically removed in 2014.
Avicii was part of the wave of DJ-producers, like David Guetta, Calvin Harris and Swedish House Mafia, who broke out on the scene as lead performers in their own right, earning international hits, fame, awards and more like typical pop stars.
Avicii earned his first Grammy nomination at the 2012 show – for a collaboration with Guetta. It was around the time he gained more fame for the Etta James-sampled dance jam, “Le7els,” which reached No. 1 in Sweden.
He continued to collaborate with more high-profile acts, producing Madonna’s “Devil Pray” and the Coldplay hits, “A Sky Full of Stars” and “Hymn for the Weekend.” He was even part of Mike Posner’s megahit “I Took a Pill in Ibiza,” which featured the lyrics: “I took a pill in Ibiza/To show Avicii I was cool.” The song was based off Posner’s true story at an Avicii concert in Ibiza.
Avicii built a strong musical and personal friendship with Nile Rodgers, who called Avicii his “little brother” in an interview with The Associated Press on Friday.
“I’m shocked because I don’t know medically what happened, but I can just say as a person, as a friend, and more importantly, as a musician, Tim was one of the greatest, natural melody writers I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with some of the most brilliant musicians on this planet,” Rodgers said.
Avicii had in the past suffered acute pancreatitis, in part due to excessive drinking. After having his gallbladder and appendix removed in 2014, he canceled a series of shows in attempt to recover.
“It’s been a very crazy journey. I started producing when I was 16. I started touring when I was 18. From that point on, I just jumped into 100 percent,” Avicii told The Hollywood Reporter in 2016. “When I look back on my life, I think: whoa, did I do that? It was the best time of my life in a sense. It came with a price – a lot of stress a lot of anxiety for me – but it was the best journey of my life.”
Rodgers said his last performance with Avicii – about three years ago – upset him because of Avicii’s drinking.
“It was a little bit sad to me because he had promised me he would stop drinking, and when I saw him he was drunk that night. And I was like, ‘Whoa. Dude. C’mon. What are you doing? What’s going on? You said that that was done,'” Rodgers recalled. “We did a show and I was a little upset. I didn’t even stick around for his performance because it was breaking my heart. But we still had a great time. It was wonderful – we were that close.”
Last year, Avicii posted this message on his website, promising to keep creating: “The next stage will be all about my love of making music to you guys. It is the beginning of something new.”
Fans and members of the music community mourned his death on social media Friday.
“Something really horrible happened. We lost a friend with such a beautiful heart and the world lost an incredibly talented musician,” Guetta wrote on Instagram. “Thank you for your beautiful melodies, the time we shared in the studio, playing together as djs or just enjoying life as friends. RIP @avicii.”
Calvin Harris called Avicii “a beautiful soul, passionate and extremely talented with so much more to do.” Ellie Goulding wrote that Avicii “inspired so many of us. Wish I could have said that to you in person.”
Sweden’s Prince Carl Philip and Princess Sofia , who knew Avicii from playing at their wedding, said they were saddened by his death.
“We are grateful that we got to know him and admired him as an artist and the great person he was. He made our wedding unforgettable with his amazing music. Our warmest thoughts go to his family,” they said in a joint statement.
Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven called the lost star “one of Sweden’s biggest musicians”.
Avicii, a two-time Grammy nominee, won two MTV Europe Music Awards and one Billboard Music Award. His death comes just days after he was nominated for a 2018 Billboard Music Award for top dance/electronic album for his EP “Avicii (01).”
Avicii is the subject of the 2017 Levan Tsikurishvil documentary “Avicii: True Stories.”
Muscat, where Avicii died, is the capital of the sultanate on the eastern edge of the Arabian Peninsula. It is a popular vacation destination on the Arabian Sea.

Pop star Justin Timberlake was the star of last night's Super Bowl halftime with his astonishing performance that lived up to expectations.
The game was between the Patriots and Eagles on Sunday night, as he was introduced by good friend Jimmy Fallon and started his act underneath the field.
"Haters gonna say it's fake," he then said many times, starting his performance with a brief rendition of "Filthy."

From there, Timberlake danced his way on to the field, rocking a red handkerchief around his neck that became the talk of Twitter.
He sang "Rock Your Body." He broke into "SexyBack." He sampled "Gone." He played all the hits, basically.
Then, at one point, he sat at a piano and covered Prince, who tragically passed away last year from a drug overdose and who made his home in Minnesota.
(The Super Bowl was played in Minnesota, it's worth noting.)
"Minneapolis, this one's for you," he said, prior to a few images of Prince being projected on a giant screen.
Impressively, lights across Minnesota then lit up in Prince's trademark color of purple. It was pretty cool.
The performance culminated in a rendition of "Rock Your Body," which found Timberlake jumping into the crowd and telling a young fan to snap a selfie of him and the superstar.

Overall, there was a whole lot of dancing, which is what Timberlake does as well as anyone, of course.
The sound was off nearly throughout the entire act, but it's possible this was even done on purpose... lest millions of viewers hear Timberlake wheezing for 20 minutes after essentially running a 5K or so.
There was no Janet Jackson, as had been rumored.
Much to the chagrin of NSync fans everywhere, Timberlake’s halftime show did not include a reunion with his former bandmates, either.
We didn't see Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone, Lance Bass or JC Chasez.

Sea snakes are with flat tailed and scaled snakes usually found in tropical and warm waters of the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Usually around 3-5 feet long, sea snakes can also grow to 9 feet long. . There are at least 52 species known and all of them are venomous.
Although they evolved from terrestrial ancestors the vast majority cannot move on land.
They can move both forward and backwards in the water with equal speed. They can dive as deep as 328 feet and stay underwater for two hours. It is an air breather and must come to the surface to survive. A sea snake has scales where as eels do not.
Sea snakes are usually not aggressive unless provoked or cornered. Although they are highly venomous, only some bites result in significant symptoms or envenomation.
The venom in injected by fangs. Most species fangs are not long enough to penetrate through a wetsuit. The venom is very potent and toxic.
Bites typically occur when fishermen are removing the snakes from fishing nets or if the snake is stepped on while wading in the water.
A bite from a sea snake does not cause pain initially. It may show only a small pin prick where the bite occurred without pain. Sea snakes bites could show anywhere from 1 to up to 20 “fang” marks
