I wish our 1st Lady a quick recovery. However, there is too much secrecy about the health conditions of our public figures in this country.
They live on tax payers money & its the least they owe us. We should know what's going on with them.
Hillary Clinton had health issues the other time & the whole world was told.
If our leaders don't want us to know what is going on with them, then they should not hold public offices. Its our right to know

Is that the best which Nkiru can do for herself? To be a 2nd wife to a malam. Is she that desperate? I'm ashamed for her & disappointed, with all her innocent look. She must be a hypocrite

This is very sad indeed. May his soul Rest In Peace. Amen

I congratulate Obama with all my heart. Did marvelously well. Its not easy to repair 8years of Bush's wasteful administration in 4years.

Donald Trump is only crying for the money he invested on Mitt Romney. He is not a good sports man. Loser man

Kudos to David Mark. State of Birth & State of Residence. That's all we need to move the country forwardfor now. With time, other things will surely follow

My honest advice to Tokunbo, Dino's wife is to ignore Bisi & Dino, let them sort out their mess. Bisi is embarrasing herself, hit & run is what Dino did to her. If she is important to him why did he abadon her?.

Tokunbo, please, my dear young lady, take it easy in the home front & enjoy your lovely family. You remember how Hilary Clinton gave Bill moral support in the face of scandal like this. May be you were too young then. Where is Monica who wanted to destroy Clinton's marriage? No where.

We know Bisi's type "daleru, daleru". Nonsense

@timijo. This is an excellent piece, thank you very much. From your write up, It will cost little or nothing to fight pimples.

Bianca should have seen it coming. Ikemba was properly married with children when she married him. I remember very well that her father was very much against the union. Its obvious that Bianca's interest was to inherit Ojukwu.
Bianca should take note of the following:
Ikemba Ojukwu was married with children before she greedily followed him.
Ikemba was not the 1st son of Sir Louis Ojukwu.
The properties did not belong to Ikemba
Properties belong to Ojukwu family.
If she is wise, she will keep her cool & allow the matter to be amicably sorted out.
The press can't help her, but will only complicate issues for her
For her own sake, she should allow peace to reign

The whole episode of repatriation of our female pilgrims in Saudi Arabia is very embarrassing & shameful. Saudi Arabia has rules & regulations governing performance of the holy pilgrimage. If the Nigerian Muslim Pilgrimage Board had adhered to these rules, the unfortunate episode could have been avoided.
From the on going, Its obvious that Saudi authority has no regard for Nigerian muslims, yet, muslims in the Northern Nigeria want to islamitise the entire north. This is very ironical.
I challenge the boko men to rise up & protest seriously, against the humiliating treatment given to their women.
SHAME-SHAME-SHAME

GEJ was well loved before he was elected, in 2011. He made political blunder by announcing removal of fuel subsidy on 1st January, 2012. The chain reaction of that action is the result of his addressing empty seats at the UN.
Nigerians turned against him.
He is not loved at home, how can he be respected outside?
He refused to build more refineries. Why should we import fuel & create jobs in other countries while our graduates are roaming the streets jobless?
GEJ's policies are anti masses & encourage corruption. He should re-assess himself & improve his image locally if he wants to be taken seriously by world leaders.

The saying is "look before you lip". Our President should carry out consultations before endorcing proposals by Ministers & political appointees.

In Western world, people don't carry coins about. Their society is almost cashless. You use credit/debit cards to pay for goods, fuel etc. People also make payments online.

Sanusi's policy is not in favour of the masses. Critically looking at the proposed N5000 note, I believe it was meant for politicians & their ghana must go syndrome

Sanusi is too full of himself & should be called to order. His policies have ruined the banking industry.

God bless Nigeria

I go for Obafemi Awolowo. His displined life style had no parallel in his time. His free education put the west above all other regions. If he had got a go at the Presidency, Nigeria would have been a better nation

In military, Yakubu Gowon all the way

PHCN workers should know who their real enemies are. Barth is not their enemy. Thanks to him for the revelation of whereabout of the pension scam money. That's why the high & mighty got rid of him
PHCN workers please wise up

Head of State of a country is a public figure. If circumstances sorrounding Nigerian head of state & his family are shrouded in secrecy, then, rumour & speculation become order of the day.
In as much as I sympathise with Patience Jonathan, the Presidency is duty bound to be open to the the citizens because the 1st family lives on public funds.
If our hospitals were well equiped she could not have been taken that far for treatment.
I wish her a quick recovery

I was attending visa interview at the British Embassy in Lagos.

Congratulations Chioma. God bless you and your bundles of Joy. You deserve happiness because you made Nigerians happy with your Olympics Gold medal.
How she got pregnant, either thru IVF or use of fertility medicine, Should not be anybody's business.
The most important thing is that God has blessed her with healthy triplets (2boys & a girl).
We rejoice with you & your husband Chi.

Its very unfortunate that eedris refered to an elderlyman & ex President Obasanjo as mugu. This simply means that eedris has no respect for his own biological father.
Respect for elders is key in our culture, no matter what part of the country one comes from.
No right thinking Nigerian will insult an old man like Obasanjo.
If eedris wants to be blessed with old age, he should tender unreserved apology to Nigerians for insulting our ex President

I believe that what prompted her not going to church is the controversy sorounding her marriage to Dr Soleye, who was legally married with children
Nike is not as beatiful as Bianca & others who were still strong in their faith
She should know that her presence was embarrasing decent people in the church, hence they look at her.
The look is not that of admiration but of annoyance

I like your guts. You sound like someone who is really in love with Nigerian culture. Pls ignore the negative comments & follow the websites given to you. Your little boy is cute. Best of luck

All said and done, its refreshing to note the family attribute of Charley Boy, the father of 8 & grandfather of 12. Has been married to D for ages. This is commendable. He should now retire from crazy stuff & enjoy a blissful old age

This is a welcome development, long overdue. Rail between Lagos & Calabar will pass thru other Southern states & will reduce traveling time.
People will be spared the harrowing experience of traveling by road.
Traveling will be safer
Wear & tear of roads will reduce
Above all, it will bring Southern governors & the people closer
There will be more development. All the towns where the rail will pass thru will develop fast

China was definitely overall better. Very colourful &, captivating. In London's ceremony, the lighting of Olympic torch & the Queen's James Bond theme were brilliant. The 70s into 80s dances were boring & unnecessarily too long.

WONDERFUL IDEA

Omotola is more beautiful than Nadia, all the way. Omo T has a fantastic figure. She is a mother of for children & to still look this good, she is a diva. Nadia is mixed race, which is all what she has.

Congratulations. I'm very happy for you. Safe delivery

Kudos to Oyo indegenes in London. I bet you, many of those legislators' wives cannot speak simple correct English. How would they follow the program? Our money should be put to better use.

Jim Iyke's attitude is very disgraceful, why should he be living off women? What happened to all the money he makes from acting? He should clean up his acts & start living a responsible life.

Its very disheartening for Rivers state to be experiencing tragedies recently.
May almighty God protect residents of Rivers state & console families of those who lost their lives in the different explosions. Amen

Soludo is a better reformer
Sanusi killed the banking sector.
Thousands of Bankers lost their jobs under Sanusi's regime & are sent to labour market
Very bad legacy for Sanusi

Priests are sworn to secrecy & your secrets are safe, unlike telling a friend who will later betray you
The Priest prays with you & gives you relevant portion of the bible to read
This begins your healing process & you are mentally relieved
