Politics / Re: 5 Nigerian Television Series That Held Us Spellbound This Decade by estellyn(f): 2:10pm On Dec 21, 2019
Tinsel
TonyeBarcanista:

The 2010s have been a great decade for Nigerian television shows. From the scripting to the quality of production, Nigerian television has come a long way since the days of New Masquerade.

As we bid farewell to the decade that gave us unforgettable characters like Achelonu and Spiff, we shed the spotlight on Nigerian television shows that not only delivered on quality but also had social media buzzing.

Here are five series that held us spellbound this decade and are all currently available for streaming on Showmax.

1. Ajoche

Fondly dubbed Nigeria’s Game of Thrones by fans of the show, Ajoche aired on Africa Magic Showcase from April 2018 to May 2019.

Ajoche is set in 1918 when the Idoma emerged from the middle belt of Nigeria at a time when culture and tradition were celebrated. The hit show is a tale of war and duty, revenge and honour, love and lust as the people of Ocholuje embrace their destiny, uncovering some bitter truths and harsh realities as they fight for survival.
 
Ajoche earned a City People Movie Award nomination for Best TV Series of the Year (English) and frequently made it to the top of Twitter in Nigeria while it aired.

Produced by James Omokwe, the show stars the likes of Hilda Dokubo, Femi Branch, William Benson, Lota Chukwu, Akah Nani, Efa Iwara,Tokunbo Idowu (T-Boss), Lilian Afegbai and Big Brother alumni Bassey Ekpenyong.


2. Battleground


Battleground is a family drama series centred around the Badmus’, a wealthy Nigerian family, and the often questionable lengths its patriarch goes to hold on to power, wealth and even family.


The show gave us one of the most unforgettable moments in Nigerian television history - Adaora flogging Onajite - and had social media buzzing while it aired. From the plot to the acting and even costumes, Battleground held its audience spellbound from start to finish.

It even featured a crossover episode with another Africa Magic series, Hush, reminiscent of the How To Get Away With Murder/Scandal crossover.
The show stars Gbenga Titiloye, Shaffy Bello, Kunle Coker, Joke Silva, Okey Uzoeshi, Ini Dima-Okojie, Ozzy Agu, and Yinka Davies.


3. Hush

Hush marked the return of Nollywood legend Richard Mofe-Damijo to the small screen, thrilling viewers with the delivery of drama and suspense.

Fashion, politics and power is the central theme of the show. A governorship aspirant’s noble mission is tainted by the ambitions of an exclusive men’s club and her personal life.

The show earned a Best Drama nomination in the 2017 Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards (AMVCA) and stars Thelma Okoduwa, Mawuli Gavor, Ade Laoye, Chris Okagbue and Baaj Adebule, amongst others.

In the wake of the show’s finale, fans applauded the ending, describing it on social media as one of the best Nigerian television shows ever written.


4. The Johnsons

 The Johnsons chronicles the lives of an average Nigerian family and the everyday challenges they navigate, told from the perspective of their special 15-year old son, Efe Johnson.

Showing since 2014 on Africa Magic, the show quickly became a household name due to the antics of the characters. The Johnsons has earned several awards, including the 2017 City People Movie Award for Best TV Series of the Year (English) and 2017 AMVCA for Best Comedy.

The Johnsons stars Charles Inojie, Chinedu Ihedieze, Ada Ameh, and Olumide Owuru, among others.


5. Hustle

Starring Sola Sobowale, Seyi Law, Seun Ajayi, Afeez Ayetoro aka Saka, Uzo Osimkpa and most recently Tobi Bakre from Big Brother Naija, Hustle tells the story of Dayo, a gullible but optimistic young man who moves to Lagos with dreams of making it big.

The show earned Deborah Anugwa a 2017 AMVCA Best Actress In A Comedy Award and frequently emerges as one of the most-watched Nigerian shows on Showmax

The five members of the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) who were kidnapped while travelling to their orientation camps in Akwa Ibom and Rivers states, have been rescued by police at a forest in Imo state.

According to reports, the fresh graduates and the other victims were travelling from Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, to Rivers and Akwa Ibom states where they were billed to undertake their three-week NYSC orientation.

They were kidnapped on the Owerri-Port Harcourt Expressway and taken to the Umuapu forest in the Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of Imo State.

Briefing journalists after the victims were rescued by the police, the Commissioner of Police in charge of the Imo State Police Command, Dasuki Galadanchi, said the kidnappers established contact with the families of the corps members and demanded N5m ransom.

The CP gave the names of the corps members as Abiola Temitope, Olubisi Adekanmi, Jose Temitayo, Folarin Opeyemi and Shonibare Ademola.

Other victims were identified as Leonard Uzondu and Raymond Ojodahe.

Crime / Re: Man Arrested For Using Cutlass To Obtain Sex From Ladies by estellyn(f): 10:06am On Sep 25, 2018
THIS IS SO SERIOUS!!!
arinze198:
The police in Lagos have arrested a 24-year old man, one Ayo Yusuf, who allegedly specialised in forcefully having sex with ladies by the road side after threatening them.

P.M.EXPRESS reports that the suspect was arrested after he accosted a lady by the road side at Admiralty Way in Lekki area of Lagos, forced her to a corner armed with cutlass and had carnal knowledge of her.


However, by the time he was done with the act and was escaping police operatives accosted and arrested him with the victim who informed the police about what happened.

Police sources said that the victim was returning from work in the evening before she was ambushed. The suspect was said to have pointed a cutlass at her and dragged her to a corner. She was reportedly forced to remove her pant and bend down before he penetrated her. She was said to be helpless because Yusuf was in the company of another suspect who also had a weapon which was what made her to comply in order to save her life.

It was gathered that FSARS operatives who had known the place as a black spot noticed what was happening and moved in that direction where they met the suspect. He was arrested and detained at the Police Command for interrogation.

During interrogation, the suspect, Yusuf, told the police that he was not an armed robber but that he used the cutlass found on him to harass and obtain sex from ladies at night.

The police found him culpable and charged him before the Ogba Magistrates court for armed robbery and rape.

He pleaded not guilty. The prosecutor, Mr. Christopher John, informed the court that it was a case of armed robbery because the police recovered two cutlasses as exhibits which he used to threaten victims into submission.

However, the Presiding Magistrate, Mr. Peter Nwaka, granted Yusuf bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum.

Health / Re: 1,086 Young Nigerians Confirmed HIV Positive In Nasarawa by estellyn(f): 12:20pm On Sep 05, 2018
Are u kidding me?,this is serious.
Newsmania:
Several teenagers in the north-central part of Nigeria, Nasarawa State have shockingly tested positive to HIV/AIDS. About 1,086 out of 75, 435 young Nigerians between the ages of 14 and 19, who were counselled and tested for HIV/AIDS in Nasarawa State, have been confirmed to be carrying the deadly virus.



The Executive Director, Nasarawa State AIDS Control Agency, Dr. Ruth Adabe, disclosed this on Sunday during a one-day workshop organised by the United Nations International Children’s Fund, in conjunction with the National Orientation Agency, in the Keffi Local Government Area of the state. Speaking during the event, Adabe, who was represented by Dr.

Peter Attah of the Nasarawa State Ministry of Health, suggested strategies to end the HIV/Aids epidemic. They include the establishment of youth-friendly centres, HIV /Aids consulting and testing units and the prevention of PMTCT in the state. She called for cooperation with the Nasarawa HIV/AIDS and STIs Control Programme in the fight against HIV/AIDS.

She blamed risky behaviour on the part of the youth for the upsurge in the prevalence of HIV/AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases in the state. Adabe also said that it was imperative for all stakeholders supporting the fight against HIV/AIDS in the state to meet with the youth and discuss how to educate the general public on the epidemic.

She said, “In 2016, about 240,000 adolescents between the ages of 10 and 19, were living with the diseases, thereby making up seven per cent of the total number of people living with the virus in Nigeria. “HIV prevalence among this age group varies regionally, with 4.3 per cent of 15-19-year-olds living with HIV in the South-South, compared to 1.3 per cent in the South-East. “Health outcomes for adolescents living with HIV in Nigeria are poor.

This is the only country in the world where mortality in 10 – 14-year-olds is rising. “Young women have a higher HIV prevalence and are infected earlier in life than men of the same age group. “In 2016, more than 46,000 young women were infected with HIV, compared to 33,900 young men.

“Reports from a 2017 National Health Survey showed that only 29 per cent of women and 27.9 per cent of men between the ages of 15 and 24 could correctly identify ways of preventing sexual transmission of HIV, as well as reject major myths around transmission,” she said. The executive director called for an effective strategy to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic. She urged indigenes and other people living in the state to go for regular HIV counselling and testing.

School father marries his school daughter years after they met in secondary school, today they are now husband and wife.

As shared with caption...

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a step. We started as innocent friends, school father and daughter. Today, we stand as man and wife in what seem like a script written by God & foretold by the prophets. I am eternally grateful to Adanna Immaculate Osahon who requested that I watch over her younger sister in school. I have fulfilled my promise and will do so forever.
