Perhaps she should be called 'Queen of the Birds'.

Maybe the birds see a pure soul in her, or she has a characteristic that birds find agreeable.

In any case, a new celebrity may just have been born.

The Dasin Hausa Dam needs to be built asap.

Two NGOs, the Prince and Princess Charles Offokaja Foundation Nigeria and Prince and Princess Charles Offokaja Foundation Switzerland have sued the Nigerian Government at the ECOWAS Community Court of Justice over the non-completion of the Dasin Hausa Dam, which has caused massive loss of lives and property from flooding each time Cameroon opens its Lagdo Dam to release excess water.

The Dasin Hausa Dam was designed to act as a shock absorber to flood waters flowing from Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam into Nigeria each time Cameroon opens up its Lagdo Dam to release excess water.

Cameroon’s Lagdo Dam was constructed from 1977 to 1982. But Nigeria’s Dasin Hausa Dam on the Nigerian side has inexplicably been under construction since 1982, currently for a total of 41 years in 2023.

And this delay in building it has led to loss of lives and property, particularly in the floods of 2012 and in 2022.

In those years, the massive flood waters faced no barrier, and submerged many communities in many states from River Benue Basin to Anambra, to the Niger Delta before emptying into the Atlantic Ocean.

According to the suit, apart from serving as a barrier against floods, the dam would have been capable of providing irrigation to about 150,000 hectres of land for agriculture, hold thousands of tons of fish, and also provide about 300 mega watts of electricity if it had been completed.

The NGOs are particularly asking the court to order the Government to complete an updated version of the dam within 18 months of judgement, in order to forestall further loss of life and property from flooding.

They are also asking the court to ensure that the dam works optimally in the face of Global Warming.

Independent candidacy is indeed good.

I don't know if this is the exact case, but Shakespeare said 'hell hath no fury like a woman scorned'. If you didn't want her to be invested in the situationship, you should have paid for a professional care giver or made arrangements with a relation. Now she wants a payment that starts with 'M' and I don't mean a million.

Judgement: step back and take a dispassionate look at the situation. If she's good, you may consider popping the big question. She seems to have a soft spot for you, But only You can take the final step.

The Incorporated Trustees of Prince and Princess Charles Offokaja Foundation Nigeria and the Prince and Princess Charles Offokaja Foundation Switzerland, a member of the Coalition for the International Criminal Court, CICC, have jointly filed a suit against the Nigerian Government before the ECOWAS Court over delays by several State Houses of Assembly in either accepting or rejecting the National Assembly’s independent candidacy bill, since April, 2022.

If not, communications are continued till the intending independent candidate gets the right number of supporters who are holders of valid voters cards also known as Permanent Voters Cards up until 14 days before the date of the general election.

vii. Nigeria’s electoral body should after receipt of the form and supporters list check the validity of the supporters against the list of registered holders of valid voters cards also known as Permanent Voters Cards in the country, and if it tallies give the person a Certificate To Contest and list the person as independent candidate for the purpose of the general election.

Independent candidates can optionally have the photo of themselves and their running mates used instead.

An Order compelling Nigeria to by means of its own choosing ensure that the participation of independent candidates in the 2023 elections does not lead to a shift of the already set date of the 2023 general election.

The suit by the NGOs reads in part:

“The Defendant ’s failure to meet the deadline it set through a unilateral act binding on it under international law, has led to a violation of the plaintiffs’ rights to freedom of expression under Article 9(1) and 9(2) of the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights, and the threat of further violation as a result of the possible non-adherence to a second unilateral act binding on the Defendant.

“Based on a particular public statement of one of the high authorities in Nigeria – the Chairman of the Conference of Speakers of State Houses of Assembly – which amounts to a unilateral act all the State Houses of Assembly in Nigeria resolved to approve or reject the 44 Constitution amendment bills approved by the National Assembly, including the one approving independent candidacy in Nigeria’s elections, by the first week of August, 2022.

“In reliance on this statement and to promote their opinion that independent candidacy is a potentially great remedy for qualified Nigerians who due to financial hurdles or for reasons of freedom of thought could not vindicate their bestowed rights by participating in past political party primaries for elective office, the plaintiffs who are into publishing, plan to publish a report on the effect of the approval process of the independent candidacy bill by all the State Houses of Assembly, the President of the Republic and the National Assembly in Nigeria on the 2023 election.

“But due to delays by several State Houses of Assembly in rejecting or approving the bills passed since March, 2022, the plaintiffs are thus far unable to get adequate information. At the same time, a second, related unilateral act by the Chairman of the Constitution Review Committee of the National Assembly through a public statement made by his spokesman stating that the entire process of Constitution amendment would be over by October, 2022 is in threat of not happening.

“This in turn, further threatens the plaintiffs’ right to freedom of expression by receiving information they need to analyze the possible Presidential assent of the bill or possible override of a Presidential rejection of the bill by the National Assembly.”

First, we heard that controversial Nollywood actress King Tonto Dike was nominated as Deputy Governorship candidate for the African Democratic Congress, ADC, in Rivers State.

Then, we are reading that talented actress and producer Funke Akindele is one of the shortlisted nominees for Deputy Governorship candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Lagos State.

It seems its becoming a trend for Nollywood actresses to be nominated to that position.

What leadership skill does Tonto Dike bring to the table? Well she has done a lot of social work through her Tonto Dike Foundation. That may be an indication that she has her heart in the right place when it comes to service to the less privileged, or maybe it was all smart political positioning.

But one thing that cannot be denied is that Tonto has gained some experience of how to run welfare programs designed to touch the less privileged through her participation in her NGO’s programs.

Her party faces an uphill, but-not-impossible task winning the Governorship election in Rivers State.

As for Funke Akindele, her fame has increased in leaps and bounds since her produced the very popular Jennifer series.

She has gone on to produce the popular American series My Siblings And I that shows on DSTV. The PDP is doing all they can to break the jinx of never having ruled Aguda House, Alausa. Unlike Tonto Dike, Funke Akindele has 4 other rivals for the same position.

Both actresses have faced crisis in their marriage. They know what it is to face rejection. But will the people of their states embrace and elect them? Only time can tell.

Simply Tacha?
Something tells me that after this, Tacha of BBNaija may run for a post in the next election. And Tacha is one lady that when she voices out on issues, the powers that be listen. How, do you mean, you ask? I remember when she accused President Buhari of not addressing the nation over the lockdown. The next day, it was announced that Buhari would address the nation, and he did. I also remember when she called out Governor Wike for not addressing the issue of soot polluting the air in Port Harcourt. The next day, Governor Wike swung into action. Hmm.

Do you think Funke Akindele has the popularity to help PDP win the Lagos State Governorship for the first time?

Do you think Tonto Dike will be the next Deputy Governor of Rivers State?

Let’s know in the comments.

Nick Kyrgios beat Stefanos Tsitsipas in Saturday’s Wimbledon 2022 third-round match. But what has set tongues wagging is the canopy of tension that hung on the air during and after the match.

Kyrgios beat forth-seeded Tsisipas 6-7 (2), 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (7) to reach the fourth round at the All England Club. But the sporting commentary of the match has been overshadowed by three code violations that were issued in it. One of the violations was issued on Kyrgios for spewing an expletive. Two fell on Tsitsipas for ball abuse, leading to a point penalty.

The bitter feelings continued even after the match, when Tsitsipas accused Kyrgios of having “an evil side” and speculated that Kyrgios must have been “a bully at school”. There’s currently no confirmation that this allegation has any truth in it whatsoever.

Kyrgios responded: “To come in here and say I bullied him, that’s just soft. We’re not cut from the same cloth. I go up against guys who are true competitors. “

The main theatre of war was toward the end of the second set. What was the spark that ignited the flame? Tsitsipas hit a ball into the corner stands, narrowly missing a spectator!

Kyrgios immediately saw red, arguing with the umpire, and demanding that Tsitsipas should be defaulted. He didn’t stop there. He dropped the remark that ‘if he had been the one who did such, he would have been thrown out’. Not done making his point, he demanded to see a supervisor, but was not satisfied when chair umpire Damien Dumusois’ issued a warning. Kyrgios then demanded to see ‘more supervisors’. All this drama was during the match, or should I say, stalling the match.

Said Kyrgios to umpire Dumusois, “What are you talking about, bro? Bring out more supervisors. I’m not done. Bring ’em all out. I don’t care. … I’m not playing until we get to the bottom of this.”

Reflecting how he hit the ball dangerously toward spectators, Tsitsipas defended himself, stating that he had apologized, and adding that the ball didn’t hit anyone. He then blamed his behavior on unusual forces. He stated;

“Look, I have to say it was really bad from my side,” he said. “I have never done that before, throwing the ball outside the court in that way. I did apologize to the people. I don’t know what went through my head at that time.

“I think, with all the circus show going on the other side of the net, it started to become very tiring in a way. That happened. I didn’t hit any people. It did hit the wall, thank God. For sure I’m never doing that again. It’s my responsibility, for sure. But there was also something that created that behavior that I’m not used to see myself.”

Kyrgios’ first clash with the chair umpire was in the first set, when he was dissatisfied about a reversed call by a line judge and wanted that official removed. His wish didn’t become reality.

ESPN reports that there was more drama caused by underarm serves hit by Kyrgios that include one between his legs; and three shots that may have been purposely smacked right at him by Tsitsipas.

And on and on went the drama. If Winston Churchill were to summarize the match, he’d say something like; ‘Never before has one match generated so much acrimony…’

That's almost N500 million every July 1 for a former player for the next 13 years!

Every July 1, a former baseball player called Bobby Bonilla will get paid $1.19 million (N456 million) by his former club, the Mets, despite the fact that he has retired and last played for them in 1999.

The celebration is named after the player. It’s called the Bobby Bonilla Day.

Furthermore, the club is committed to keeping up with this tradition and commitment every July 1, till 2035, 13 years from now. By that time, 59 year-old Bobby Bonilla will be 72 years old.

This is due to terms of the contract they signed with him.

Mavin Music boss Don Jazzy has publicly reacted to the news of his long-time crush, Rihanna, finally giving birth to a baby for US music star A$AP Rocky.

Don Jazzy, who for years has been telling anyone who cares to listen of his crush for Rihanna, has congratulated her on the birth of her celebrated child.

The Mavin Music boss who is also a talented comedian with his own unique style took to his social media handle and exclaimed, “It’s a boy”, in a post emblazoned with celebratory dancing and balloon emojis.

Over the years, Don Jazzy has told the world of his dream of having a romantic relationship with Rihanna. But as we can see, that hasn't happened. Any hopes of a Don Jazzy-Rihanna Jay-Z-Beyonce style union were dashed when A$AP Rocky put Rihanna the family way.

Prince Charles Offokaja is the right person for the job.

Hello, good people. These days relationships are sometimes as ‘difficult’ as rocket science. As a result, many sincere guys often wonder how they can be better men to their ladies so that they both can share a loving relationship. Well, I hope the write-up below can offer you one or two useful tips on how to achieve that. Read up, and tell us what you think about it in the comments.

A man can easily learn how to be a good boyfriend. All it takes is a little bit of practice and determination to do it. Willingness is the key for any man to learn how to be a good boyfriend. Unfortunately, not all men are willing to study and do what it takes to be a good boyfriend.

Many men adopt a ‘love me or leave me’ attitude wherein they are too stubborn to admit their shortcomings. These are usually the type of men that bank on the frailty of most women, the kind of women who would rather die than be left alone without a man.

However, men of this character must be living in the dark ages, as many women today would not tolerate this type of behavior. The modern woman of today is more discerning. Any man who would want to be in a relationship with her would certainly have to brush up on how to be a good boyfriend in order to keep her interested.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of men who believe in giving their best in a relationship. These men take the initiative in learning how to be a good boyfriend to their significant other. And in the end reap the rewards of their labor with a loving and satisfying relationship.

Learning How to be a Good Boyfriend
Learning how to be a good boyfriend has a lot of advantages not just for women but also for men. A man that makes an effort to learn how to be a good boyfriend can look forward to a better and stronger relationship with their partner. An appreciative girlfriend will most likely shower her man with more love and affection than before. In addition, there will probably be less nagging that will surely be a welcome respite for any man.

However, if a man still faces the same type of treatment even after learning how to be a good boyfriend then there is something that’s not quite right. It would be a good idea to assess the relationship at this point. Perhaps the man is not to blame and the fault lies elsewhere.

Keep in mind that there are some women in the world that cannot be content unless they are nagging or criticizing something. At this point, a man may want to consider if the relationship is still worth pursuing or if it’s time to move on and probably find someone who would appreciate them better.

A Guide on How to be a Good Boyfriend
A good boyfriend knows how to keep his girlfriend happy. The process of making a woman happy is a comprehensive plan that does not only involve the sexual aspect of a relationship. One way to do so is to make her feel special by complimenting her on her looks.

Women do their best to look pretty for their man and a little praise on her beauty would go a long way to show her that her efforts are noticed. It is also a good idea for a man to...

Respect is an essential human value. It
concerns people in society and is defined as an attitude of dignified awe, admiration or esteem for a person. Often, respect grows as a result of a person’s achievements. Everyone deserves respect, but not many receive it.

One of the rules of respect is that is reciprocal. That is: in order to demand respect, you’ll have to treat others with respect. Respect begets respect.

The word ‘Respect’ contains just 7 letters. But it means so much for people and even for nations. Some go about getting respect in the right way, while other go about getting it in the wrong way. The aim of this article is to give you the tools or remind you of the tools needed for getting respect the right way in a romantic relationship.

In a relationship, respect means both partners listening to each other, and respecting each other’s opinions even if they don’t agree with it. It means understanding the other’s emotions. It means not putting your partner down in front of others. It means not disrespecting your partner by behaving flirtatiously in a way that’ll make others mock your partner. It means not treating your partner as a punching bag and guarding the urge to use your tongue as a weapon to make your partner miserable.

Below are some tips that’ll help you gain more respect in your relationship.


1. First of all it is very important to have self-respect. Treat yourself with respect. Carry yourself as if you deserve respect. If she sees that you don’t have any respect for yourself
she might decide that she doesn’t have to show you respect because it doesn’t seem important to you at all. If your partner does something you are not okay with, tell her the truth with love. Don’t cause a quarrel. Just let her know that you are particular about this or that. If she is the respectful type, she’ll likely apologize and try to put you into consideration next time. Or at least she’ll know where you stand. But don’t become a nag in the process. Remember that as relationship expert Dale Carnegie said in his book, How To Win Friends And Influence People’, marriage is not a field of candor, but a field of diplomacy. Sometimes you have to decide to overlook certain things if they aren’t too important. Remember that no one (including you) is perfect.
2. What you give is what you get. Show respect if you want to be respected. Everyone wants to be admired and appreciated. If you show your partner that they are important to you, you’ll
easily be in their good graces. Be attentive, give genuine compliments (flattery) and make them feel comfortable with you. If they don’t feel comfortable with you, then who will they feel comfortable with?? Simply admire the person you are with and listen carefully when she talks, so, she’ll love to spend time with you. People often prefer to be around those that make them feel good.
3. Make Her Smile In Your Own Way. Women love men who make them smile or laugh. If you are funny then you are lucky. If you are not, don’t repair: there are other ways you can make women smile or laugh. For instance, you may make a woman smile by taking her on interesting dates. If you don’t have the money to take her on that romantic cruise, still I say, don’t despair. You can still bring out that smile by random acts of kindness that show her that you care for her, or that if you had more money at that moment, you’d have done more. For instance, if you know how to cook, you could surprise her with a breakfast-in-bed. Women love such attentions. If you cannot cook, still don’t despair: you can wash the dishes while she’s enjoying her sleep. When she wakes up and sees all the dishes she’s about to wash all washed up and clean, I can bet the next sentence that she’ll smile in appreciation, and may possibly give you a special reward �. Make it your goal to make her smile, and the chances are that she’ll chose you as The One. Women have so many problems that men are not often aware of. Make her problems reduce in your own little or big way, and the chances are she’ll value you more.
4. Don’t lie. We all know women don’t like being lied to. If she eventually finds out that you were deceiving her all along, she’ll likely despise you. A little story here: To get a woman to marry him, a man once lied about his house and job. The woman fell in love with him on the basis of that. After the marriage, he revealed the truth to the new bride. She was disappointed. Their honeymoon became a hornet storm of quarrels, accusations of betrayal, desperate attempts at justification and placation, growing mistrust and other sad things. Today, that woman as lost respect for the man. True, the man actually loved the woman. But because he felt he didn’t have the material things that would make her agree to marry him, he decided to trap her by lying and conjuring a false reality, hoping to fix it all up quickly. But the state of the economy prevented him from doing so. So, was it worth it? Now the woman whose admiration he wanted to win has recrimination for him. He gambled and has so far lost. But take the case of another man. He decided to tell his woman the truth of his situation. The first one left him. She didn’t think she could deal. The next one heard his story but saw in him the traits of a focused man with potentials. She got married to him And today, they live in a state of too-much-money. In fact, their marriage is a case of happily ever after. So, which approach is better for you? You decide.
