Celebrities › Re: LASTMA Officer Recounts How Late Actress Temitope Osoba Ran To Him For Help by femi4: 5:47pm On Aug 12 |
Olofofo247ng: LASTMA OFFICIAL RECOUNTS HOW LATE ACTRESS TEMITOPE OSOBA ALLEGEDLY RAN TO THEM FOR HELP HOURS BEFORE NEWS OF HER DEATH
A man who identified himself as a LASTMA official has narrated what he claimed happened on the morning of August 4, involving late actress Temitope Osoba.
According to his account:
“On August 4, at about 9am, we were on the road controlling traffic when suddenly a woman jumped out of a vehicle behind a bus we had stopped.
She was wearing a Celestial Church garment and immediately started running towards us, screaming for help.
She alleged that the people inside the vehicle had abducted her and were taking her somewhere to kill her.
We immediately instructed the driver of the korope (commercial minibus) to pull over so we could understand what was happening.
That was when we realised that the woman asking us for help was actress Temitope Osoba.
Another woman, who was also wearing a Celestial garment, came out of the same vehicle.
Temitope alleged that her husband, whom she referred to as Oluso, and the other woman were involved in a plan against her.
She further alleged that money donated to her by Nigerians — which she claimed was more than ₦50 million — had been collected by her husband.
When we questioned the second woman, she reportedly said she was a member of Temitope's family. Temitope disputed this and claimed that the woman was actually her hairdresser who knew a lot about what had been happening.
Temitope also claimed that she had pretended to cooperate with them after they got her into the vehicle and that her car keys had been taken from her.
I asked for the keys to be returned. The woman went back to the vehicle and brought them.
At that point, we contacted the police and an officer accompanied them to the police station.
After we finished our duties and later got to the station, we were told that Temitope had been released to people connected to her because that particular police station was reportedly not the station handling the complaints she had previously made.
We were therefore shocked when, later that same day, we received news that she had died.”
MY TAKE:
This testimony raises very serious questions, but allegations are not the same as proven facts.
If this LASTMA official's account is accurate, investigators need to establish exactly what happened from the moment Temitope allegedly sought help until the time of her death.
Who took her away from the police station? When someone says they want to kpai her and released for them.
Was an official statement taken from her?
Was there an existing complaint at another police station?
Who was inside the vehicle?
What happened between her leaving the station and her death?
And importantly, what do CCTV footage, police records, medical evidence and other independent witnesses show?
These are questions that should be answered through a proper investigation — not through social-media accusations alone.
Nobody mentioned in these allegations should automatically be declared guilty without evidence and due process. At the same time, any credible allegation made by a woman who reportedly feared for her safety shortly before her death deserves serious investigation.
May the truth come to light and may the deceased rest in peace.

Career › Re: My Boss Is Assaulting Me by femi4: 5:46pm On Aug 12 |
Oludiary: Statement of Events I was working with an elevator company as an Elevator Technician when I came to Nigeria. A few months later, I received a message on LinkedIn from a man who wanted to establish an elevator company. He told me he needed me to help build the company and serve as the Lead Elevator Engineer. I agreed to the offer, resigned from my previous employment, and joined his company. A few weeks after I resumed, I noticed that the man began involving me in some of his other businesses, including his paper business and other activities unrelated to elevator engineering. I did not initially complain, but this began affecting my career and the work I was employed to do.
I also observed how he treated some of his other employees. On several occasions, I witnessed him verbally harassing and physically mistreating staff, including slapping them.
Regarding my own employment, the man has little or no technical knowledge of elevator engineering. Whenever I made professional recommendations or raised concerns about technical decisions, he often rejected them. However, when the consequences of those decisions occurred, he would blame me heavily and make me feel as though I was incompetent or did not know what I was doing.
The major incident occurred on a Friday. After completing our normal schedule for the day, I planned to repair the company's generator because I knew we had a very demanding schedule on Monday and I wanted to ensure that the generator was functioning properly beforehand.
The man repeatedly ordered me to return to the office. I politely explained to him, "Sir, if we don't fix this generator now, it could delay us on Monday." Despite my explanation, he continued insisting that I return to the office. Based on the previous circumstances and my assessment of the situation, I refused to immediately leave the generator.
He then came out of his vehicle and approached me aggressively, appearing as though he wanted to physically assault me. I tried to move away from him to avoid a confrontation. However, he grabbed my clothing and pulled it forcefully, causing one of my buttons to come off.
There were police officers present at the scene. He ordered them to put me into his vehicle, but they refused after witnessing what had happened. He then called other police officers on patrol, who subsequently arrested me.
At the police station, he made several allegations against me, including an allegation that I was the person who assaulted him. I was detained from Friday until Monday. During this period, he allegedly gave money to the police officers. My mother eventually came to the station on Monday and secured my release.
I was told that he would only allow me to be released on the condition that I sign an undertaking stating that I would continue working for him. I was under significant pressure and had already spent several days in detention, so I agreed to sign the undertaking in order to secure my release.
Immediately after I signed the undertaking, his treatment of me became worse. At the end of the month, he deducted two days' pay from my salary. I asked him why the money had been deducted because, to the best of my knowledge, I had not missed those two working days. He told me that the deduction was for the days I had spent in police detention.
I became upset about this and returned to the police station to report the matter. However, the police were unable to recover the money for me.
I subsequently informed him that if he expected me to continue working for him, I wanted my salary to be paid weekly, with my monthly salary divided into four payments. He refused this arrangement. Since then, I have not resumed work.
I now believe that because the undertaking did not prevent me from stopping work, he has decided to pursue an assault case against me. I have now been invited to the police station tomorrow in connection with the alleged assault.
I maintain that I did not assault him. I attempted to avoid a physical confrontation when he approached me aggressively, and he was the person who grabbed my clothing and pulled it.
I am concerned about what may happen at the police station tommorow and would like proper legal advice and protection regarding my rights, the alleged assault case, the undertaking I signed under pressure, my unpaid/deducted wages, and the circumstances surrounding my previous detention. Forget the salary n run for your life |

The BVAS devices were procured with Android 10 in 2021, and their specifications were designed to run efficiently on that version.

Food › Re: Why Many Nigerian Homes Banned AJI-NO-MOTO (White Maggi), Only To Eat It Anyways by femi4: 10:28pm On Aug 10 |
VaginaAcademic: If you grew up in a Nigerian home in the 80s, 90s, or early 2000s, chances are you heard one warning over and over again:
"Don't use white Maggi!"
Some families claimed it caused hypertension. Others said it could lead to stroke, blindness, or mysterious illnesses. In many homes, it was completely banned.
But here's the interesting part: most of those same families were unknowingly consuming the very thing they were trying to avoid.
So how did AJI-NO-MOTO®, popularly known as "white Maggi," become one of the most misunderstood food seasonings in history?
The Origin of the Fear
The controversy dates back to 1968 when a doctor in the United States wrote a letter describing numbness and dizziness after eating at a Chinese restaurant. He speculated that Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) might have been responsible.
The media quickly picked up the story and coined the term "Chinese Restaurant Syndrome."
As the story spread across the world, MSG developed a bad reputation despite years of scientific research that failed to establish it as the cause of those symptoms in the general population. Unfortunately, the fear had already taken root and eventually reached Africa, including Nigeria.
Why Nigerians Called It "White Maggi"
Unlike the familiar brown seasoning cubes, AJI-NO-MOTO comes in the form of white, crystal-like granules that resemble sugar or salt.
To many people, it simply looked like a laboratory chemical rather than a food ingredient.
That appearance alone fueled countless rumours. People claimed it caused high blood pressure, kidney problems, stroke, blindness, and even sudden death. None of these claims were backed by solid scientific evidence, but they spread rapidly through word of mouth.
The "Lazy Cook" Label
Another reason many households rejected it had nothing to do with health.
AJI-NO-MOTO is pure MSG, a flavour enhancer that boosts the savoury taste (known as umami) in food. Even a simple soup can taste richer with just a small amount.
Because of this, many experienced mothers and grandmothers believed using it was a shortcut. In some homes, it became associated with people who couldn't cook properly.
A good cook, they argued, should rely on fresh ingredients, crayfish, stock, pepper, onions, and long hours of cooking—not "white Maggi."
As a result, using it became almost a badge of laziness in some communities.
The Great Irony
Here's where the story becomes truly fascinating.
Many families proudly refused to allow AJI-NO-MOTO into their kitchens, believing they were avoiding MSG.
Yet almost every day they used seasoning cubes such as Maggi, Knorr, Royco, and similar brands.
What many people didn't realise was that these seasoning cubes often contain Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) as one of their ingredients.
In other words, they weren't avoiding MSG at all—they were simply rejecting the pure, unblended version while happily consuming it in mixed seasonings.
What Does Science Say Today?
Today, major international food safety authorities, including the World Health Organization (WHO), the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), consider MSG safe for the general population when consumed in normal amounts as part of food.
While a small number of people may report temporary sensitivity after consuming large quantities without food, decades of research have not supported the widespread belief that MSG causes the long list of illnesses often attributed to it.
As with salt and other seasonings, moderation remains important.
Looking Back
The story of "white Maggi" is one of the greatest food myths many Nigerians grew up with.
A combination of global misinformation, local rumours, and cultural beliefs transformed a simple flavour enhancer into something many families feared.
Ironically, countless homes that banned AJI-NO-MOTO continued using seasoning cubes containing the same ingredient every single day.
So here's the question for tonight's discussion:
Did your family ban "white Maggi"?
If they did, what reason were you given?
Was it said to cause stroke, hypertension, blindness, "wash the stomach," or something even more interesting?
Let's hear the stories. We use it to wash clothes. Knorr is the best |

Goo0dHardDick: Dear women,
The below are secrets men will never tell you, especially My kind of men..
1. Having tattoos - this instantly portrays you as a prostitute in the eyes of any man and no sane man will ever take you serious.
2. Multiple piercing - some men considers this as a red flag because it's giving prostitution vibes.
3. Having lots of male friends - it instantly means you're low value and that any guy can have access to you. I don't know why lots of women think having lots of male friends is a big flex. They'll even tell you I have male friends more than female friends, I prefer keeping male friends more, etc! Sis, that's a complete red flag for any sane man and he'll never take you serious other than piping and swiping.
4. Men don't really care about your money - This is funny but true. Men don't really care about how much money you have as a woman. Your attitude, respect and things you do for him matters Most. Do something for a man no matter how little it is and watch him strive hard to repay you back.
L Infact that nose piercing is disgusting. They usually look like cow with a nose ring |
