The Lagos State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Yaba, has detained a 34-year-old Lagos driver, Benjamin, in Amoshe town, Meiran, for reportedly beating his wife, Stella, to death for getting drunk. According to Punch Metro, Benjamin killed his wife when she returned home drunk after 'having fun' in a bar she had gone to with her three friends Fatima, Kafaya – and a man, Wasiu. A 34-year-old commercial driver in Amoshe town, Meiran, Lagos State, has been detained by the State Criminal Investigation and Intelligence Department, Yaba, for allegedly killing his wife. It was gathered that after he had beaten her mercilessly and realized that she was dying, he quickly rushed her to a church for prayer. However when she was later taken to a hospital in the neighborhood, she was confirmed dead. According to Mr. Samson Adedeji who lives in the area, Benjamin usually assaulted his wife whenever she was drunk. “The wife came back home on Saturday, July 1, drunk. Her husband was angry, but people begged him to allow her sleep. He didn’t heed to their plea. He beat her up seriously. It was the following day that I was told the wife died in a hospital" he said. However, Benjamin reportedly told the police that Stella was poisoned at a beer parlour. He said, “I think she was poisoned because she vomited. She went to drink with her friends. I didn’t beat her.” But one of the deceased’s friends, Fatimoh, who was also arrested by the police, refuted Benjamin’s claim. “The four of us were together that day. We took a bottle of beer each. My friend died from the injuries inflicted on her by her husband. She didn’t fight with anybody at the bar,” she added. However, a police source said the case had been transferred to the SCIID, Yaba, adding that a manhunt had been launched for the other two friends of the deceased. http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/07/lagos-driver-beats-wife-death-drinking-2.html Lalasticlala

The on-going feud between Blac Chyna and her ex-boyfriend Rob Kardashian might be settled in court, as it’s been gathered that Blac Chyna is exploring all legal remedies over her nude that was released. “I am exploring all legal remedies and protections available to my client at this time in attempts to best advise her on how she may want to proceed,” Walter Mosley said in a statement to PEOPLE on Wednesday evening. Recall that30-year-old Rob shared several nude photographs of his on-off girlfriend on Instagram as he accused her of cheating on him with eight men in less than a month. But Kardashian’s Instagram meltdown may have broken California’s 2013 revenge porn laws where it is considered a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and a $1,000 fine. According to a source, Rob has also sent people to pick up non-existent things from Blac Chyna’s house. “There needs to be boundaries set as it’s currently getting out of hand,” says the source. A second source also said; “She’s had to have a new phone number every month and constantly has to change her number. While everyone is writing stories and thinking it’s fun gossip, it’s actually dangerous,” the source said. Revenge porn is illegal in CA and it certainly appears to me that Rob has violated this criminal law,’ LA lawyer Lisa Bloom told the New York Daily News. Bloom, who recently won a victory for her client Mischa Barton after her ex posted revenge porn of the actress, said that even the fact that Chyna ‘liked’ one of the images on Instagram does not affect her case. She added that “the allegation of infidelity does not give someone the right to seek revenge in such a devastating way.” Cops say they have not yet received any criminal report. http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/07/blac-chyna-sue-rob-kardashian-releasing-nudes.html Lalasticlala

Nigerian rapper, Yung6ix, who will soon be making history with Vector and other rappers by breaking Guinness Book of Record 13 hours rap, in an interview with Sunday Scoop claimed that only broke guys complain about women liking too much money. This is coming after the rapper in a social media post, advised men who want to end their relationship with ladies who love money so much, to see that as motivation to work for more money. Here’s what he said in his interview; “It is what it is. I am tired of hearing men complain that women like money. I believe everybody likes money and it is only broke guys that complain about such. As a matter of fact, that should even serve as a motivation for the man to make more money; it is that simple. Even though everything is not about money but no one would respect you if you don’t have money. Without money, you wouldn’t be able to carry out your responsibilities. When a father does not have money to pay his children’s school fees, the children wouldn’t be happy with him. That’s the logic.” http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/07/broke-guys-complain-women-liking-much-money-yung6ix.html Lalasticlala

A breastfeeding Mom who work with University of Cape Town, in South Africa, has reportedly dragged her colleague to court, for secretly filming her while she breastfed her baby. The sued man reportedly committed the said offence by setting up a live link in a private room at the institution on June 13. The lady who was disgusted with this, said she can not understand how providing food for her baby was “sexualised in such a cowardly way.” The University has however, suspended the man, as Western Cape police have also confirmed that a case of crimen injuria — the intentional harming of someone’s dignity — is being investigated against the 38-year old university employee. According South Africa's local media, the victim had been in what she thought was a “safe, locked space” expressing milk, when she noticed that she was being filmed. “I’m disgusted that we live in a world where mothers, no matter how they choose to feed their children, are victimised for being vulnerable.” http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/06/breastfeeding-mom-sues-colleagues-filming-breastfed-baby.html Lalasticlala

Nollywood actress has called out Cool FM's controversial OAP, Daddy Freeze, who slammed Nathaniel Bassey's Hallelujah challenge a.k.a OlowoGboboro, after he wrote a rejoinder to the post after he discovered that the Gospel artiste is dropping a single titled 'OlowoGboboro'. According to Daddy Freeze, the Gospel Artiste started the Gospel revolution on social media because he wants to drop and followers were not intelligent enough to decipher that. "Unlike other leaders, my followers don't have the intelligence quotients of primitive marsupials. #Onibaranbolebo ~FRZ" Then he reposted what an Instagram user wrote; "Totally saw this coming right from the beginning and I recall telling people its a huge promotion leading up to something... I tried so hard to explain that Nathaniel is building a big promotion platform, that social media is powerful tool and you just have to know how to exploit it..... Interestingly, I was not even judging or anything.... I was actually impressed by Nathaniel's ability to own Instagram space and pull off such publicity with the Hallelujah challenge.... I believed he was about to find a way to sell gospel music and I was actually hoping he will succeed.... However, it's always interesting to note that anything related to religion is not to be questioned or discussed on this side of the planet.... You are just supposed to take it and agree to it as it is presented to you without a single thought of your own no matter how intelligent or educated you are. In otherwords, when it is religious matter, you are to set your brain aside.... In fact, I was chastised by some of my people on the basis that it is wrong for me to see something about praising God and start thinking it relates to promotion or any money making venture for that matter...... I was even told the reason I raise queries about religious matter is because I don't have faith.... The fact that I refused to lose my own sleep because of someone else's money making venture even made it worse (yes, I refused all invitations to join the challenge).... Meanwhile, here I was actually impressed that someone was about to find a way to sell gospel music..... Ah well, from those of us who question things that pique our interests whether it relates to religion or otherwise, congratulations Nathaniel, we hope you break bank with the number of downloads you will get from your new single; Olowogbogboro.... For those who are about to drop stupid comments, please don't try it. Just waka pass. For the record, I am a Christian and I was born into a Methodist family. #MyPeopleSufferForLackOfKnowledge#FreeYourselfFromReligiousSlavery#FollowGod" However, Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, who has been an ardent follower of the social media program, seem not to agree with him, and wrote; "@daddyfreeze if someone gathers people together to praise God then it's a positive thing. If he is inspired to release the song it is positive. Let's always look at the positive side of things o. I'm happy for once social media is used in a positive way. @daddyfreeze suru o!!" Daddy Freeze who seem not okay with what Funke wrote, replied; "@funkejenifaakindele my dearest sister you know I love you and I can never argue with you in public. But the more you get to know me, you will know my words NEVER fail. Ask my followers, nothing I have ever told them has failed to come to pass. I am a spiritual being, a servant of the most high God. I don't lie! I appreciate the praise and the music. But I can't see the truth and turn away. If I do, who will say it as it is? God bless and keep you my dear. You are one of the only people I can never get angry or upset with and I will continue to pray and prophesy great things into your life" http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/06/funke-akindele-comes-daddy-freeze-slamming-nathaniel-basseys-hallelujah-challenege.html Lalasticlala

Set to release his album 'Carnival III: The Fall and Rise of a Refugee', in September 2017, three-time Grammy Award winner, Wyclef Jean, has revealed why his first track off the album was titled 'Fela Kuti'. In his interview with XXL Magazine, the Haitian rapper and Musician said the lead song is inspired by the Nigerian Afrobeat legend and it samples his 'Eko Ile' track. He went further to disclose that he named it Fela Kuti because he wants kids not just to download the song but Google Fela and know who he's and what he means. Wyclef also revealed that he shared some things with the late Nigerian music legend, which includes studying Jazz in the UK, contested for President in their respective countries and had their songs helping the poor masses to reach out to the government. 'I decided to name it Fela Kuti because, for me, I feel like we be thinking of [Bob] Marley, we give a lot of people from our past props, so when the kids hear Fela Kuti, I really want them to Google it. Fela Kuti studied jazz in England. Wyclef studied jazz at Vailsburg High School. Fela Kuti then went back to his country and tried to help his country by running for president. Wyclef, you know, did the same thing. Then, Fela, through all his obstacles and all that, his music is what pillared him right back to the top. He understood the strongest way to help politically was to make sure the music was bangin'. So for me, the same way kids can have songs called 'Wyclef Jean' who are influenced by me, I want kids to know who Fela is and what he means.” http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/06/lead-single-titled-fela-kuti-wyclef-jean.html Lalasticlala
