Cool FM OAP, Daddy Freeze has dropped a post for those who feel they're in a bad situation because they're separated or divorced from someone they once loved.

According to Daddy Freeze in his Instagram post, separation and divorce are 10 times better than misery. Here's what he wrote;

"Who agrees with me? -
Too many people sending me DMs complaining about how sad their marriages are and how 'trapped' they feel inside them.
-
I must admit, the bold step into uncertainty is never an easy one to take.
-
Further to this, separated and divorced folk are never properly catered for by the church and many times they are seen as failures, simply because they couldn't make their marriages work, while many enduring horrible marriages are seen as exemplary members of the congregation!
-
A marriage is meant to be enjoyed, NOT ENDURED!
-
This doesn't have to be the case. The #FreeTheSheeple movement is here to change all that. Married or divorced, it doesn't matter, but guess what, your happiness does! ~FRZ"

President Buhari's media aide, Lauretta Onochie, while on interviewed on Channels TV this evening said it's not right for Nigerians to ask about the health status of the sick Nigerian President, who has been on medical vacation for over two months. 

According to her, President Buhari is a private citizen and it is disrespectful for anyone to ask about his health. Here's what she said;

"For the life of me, I have no idea why anybody should disrespect another by asking for the details of their health status. As we speak, we have an acting president. As we speak, President Buhari seems to be like a private citizen at the moment. We have no right and it is very disrespectful for anyone to ask for his health status. In the UK where I came from nobody would release anybody's health record to another, not even the members of their family unless the person decides to approve. 

The prerogative to speak on his ailment lies only on President Buhari. If he chooses, it is a choice. It is very disrespectful and very intrusive. We are intruding into his private rights. He has rights too as a citizen of Nigeria. It is not right, not appropriate. ANybody can get sick at any particular time".

'The Wedding Party' star actor,  Kunle Idowu a.k.a Frank Donga, who came to limelight with his social media comedy skits, has revealed just how passionate he is about unemployment.

Frank Donga who had a chat with Saturday Beats, revealed that he is a Masters degree holder and had a job when he was shooting the series, however he has always been fascinated about unemployment.

In his words:


“I have degrees in Agriculture. My first degree was in Animal Science and I have a Master’s degree in Animal Genetics. The Frank Donga Interview series online about a clumsy young man looking for job in Nigeria became a reality because I am passionate about unemployment. The truth is that I was gainfully employed when I started The Interview series online. I have always been passionate about young people who go to school, spend about five or six years, graduate and not have anything to do. I am very passionate about unemployment. When I did The Interview series, I was employed but I just wanted young Nigerians to be able to cope during job interviews because in reality, young people actually freak out during job interviews as well as visa application interviews. I just did the skits for people to know that they should be relaxed during these interviews.”

Following the arrest of 42 alleged homosexuals at Vintage Hotel in Owode Onirin area of Ikorodu, the Lagos State Government have arrested and arraigned the owner of the hotel, Chief Patrick Okeze before a Yaba Magistrate Court for allegedly aiding and promoting same sex sexual activities and gay club in his hotel.

Okeze who was arraigned alongside two of his workers, Sunday Isang and Bright Oba, was accused of encouraging the illegal act perpetrated by young men and minors in the hotel contrary to the provisions of Same Sex Marriage (Prohibition) Act of 2014.

After the one-count criminal charge against Okeze (56), Isang (30) and Oba (28) was called and read before Chief Magistrate Adewale Ojo, the defendants were not allowed to take their plea on the account of the fact that the court lacked the jurisdiction to adjudicate on the subject matter of the case.

The prosecution team including Ms Adetutu Oshinusi, Bosun Aroyehun, Folabi Sholebo, Olaitan Shoetan and Nnena Okereka, all from the State’s Directorate of Public Prosecution (DPP), urged the court to remand the defendants in prison pending the outcome of the legal advice of the DPP.



In his ruling, Magistrate Ojo ordered the defendants to be remanded in prison pending the DPP advice. The Magistrate also adjourned the matter to September 4, 2017.



Magistrate Ojo had, after the arraignment of the 28 adults on Thursday, ordered them to undergo health screening by the Lagos State Aids Control Agency (LSACA) and sexual rehabilitation by the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Response Team (DSVRT).

According to PM News, the State’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr Adeniji Kazeem said the development was an eloquent testimony to the commitment of the Governor Akinwunmi Ambode-led administration to fight all forms of crime and criminality.

“The arraignment is a confirmation of the commitment of the Lagos State Government to ensure that every resident abides by the law of the State and also to put a stop to the exploitation of under-aged children who are often lured by unscrupulous and criminally-minded adults to engage in acts or behaviours that are not in consonance with the laws of the State,” Kazeem said.

The family of Boxer Amir Khan, has stepped into the social media banter he had with his estranged wife Faryal Makhdoom earlier today in which they dragged in Anthony Joshua, and they are all blaming Faryal for the incident.

A Khan family source told MailOnline;

‘Amir and Faryal have split up. It’s over. There have been problems in the relationship for a long time and they were headed for a separation. It’s the best outcome.
Another Khan family source said; ‘Faryal is evil. She took control of Amir and drove him to the extent where he has suffered depression.
‘Amir was almost held hostage by in laws and was given ‘either with us or against us’ situation to decide between his family and in laws.


‘That’s tragic. It was clear from very early on that Faryal is interested in Amir’s money and fame and we told Amir so that she’s a bad choice.
‘We all make mistakes. It’s good Amir has reached to the conclusive fact that she’s a cheater, selfish and greedy. This was bound to happen.’
But within minutes of her claims of a hack, Khan had snapchatted himself to confirm the split was true, and no one had been hacked.
He said: ‘Everything you saw on social media it is real. Me and Farrah have decided to move on and walk away.
‘Nothing has been hacked. We have to move forward it’s not healthy for any of us. I wish her all the best in the future.
‘Don’t want you guys to worry…What’s done is done, it’s all true.’

23-year-old jobseeker, Ibrahim Sulaimon from Kogi State, have been arrested by officers of the Nigerian Police for reportedly killing a motorcycle rider, Rafiu Gafar, in the Ajuwon area of Ogun State over an argument on money. 

The father of one, who was hit with plywood on the head several times, was confirmed dead at a private hospital in the area.

According to Punch Metro, a family member who pleaded anonymity said the victim left his wife and child for his daily bread on July 13 when the incident happened.

He said it was four days later that a policeman informed the family that he had been killed.

He said, “He went out that day for work. He always plied Ajuwon and its environs. But everybody was surprised when he did not return home. We searched for him for four days without any trace. “Nobody knew anything until a policeman came from the Ajuwon Police Division and showed us pictures of his dead body. He told us that he was hit with plywood on the head several times that Thursday when he went missing, over mere N150.” A witness, Jimi Ola, told PUNCH Metrothat Rafiu picked Sulaiman and a co-traveller, identified as Ibrahim Ahmed, at a Zenith Bank branch along the Ajuwon-Akute Road en route to their destination at Reality Plaza.

He explained that the parties agreed to a N150 fare.


He said, “When they got to the plaza, they gave him N500 and demanded a change of N350. “But Rafiu told them that he didn’t have the change and Ahmed offered to go inside the house to collect a N200 note from his wife. “However, because he was taking too long, Rafiu started complaining that they should hurry so that he could continue his work. “There was a verbal exchange between him and the suspect. The suspect became angry, picked plywood used to cover a cesspit, and hit him on the head.” PUNCH Metro was told that the suspect abandoned the victim on the road.


After about three hours, some community leaders were said to have alerted the Divisional Police Officer in charge of the Ajuwon Police Division, who ordered a patrol team to the scene.

When the policemen arrived at the scene, they were said to have met Rafiu unconscious and took him to Tamara Hospital, a private hospital at Imole-Ayo bus stop.

The victim was reported to be bleeding through his ears, nostrils and mouth as a result of the attack.

The doctor was said to have informed the cops that blood had blocked his breathing organs.

During an operation to save the victim, he reportedly gave up. A death certificate, signed by the hospital, indicated that Rafiu suffered from ‘Airway Obstruction’ and died at about 3.45am on July 14.

The suspect, Sulaimon, an indigene of Kogi State, confessed to the crime in his statement to the police.
