25 k like Oga Aboki talk is absolute bullshit,unless the company they inside your village

theoctopus: stop talking nonsense my friend. How much does the average graduate out there earn right now? It is obvious you are either a yahoo boy or you have a politican giving you free stolen money. How much is entry level salary for even Airtel or MTN CSU jobs? Now I know there are a lot of useless people on NL

theoctopus: You guys dont have to post if you have nothing to post. Maybe you are criminals or your parents or uncles are politicians, so you get free money. That does not give you the right to talk nonsense on an online forum. The news is obviously not for you so just waka pass. Thank you

The National Council of Women Societies (NCWS), Nigeria, a body affiliated to the International Council of Women Societies (ICWS), will today storm the National Assembly to protest what they call the systematic “pulling down of high-flying Nigerian women in governance.”

In an invitation forwarded to DailyPost Monday night, National President of NCWS Nigeria, Chief Mrs. Nkechi Udeariry Okemini Mba, will lead the protest.

The programme is to include a Road Walk from the NCWS Headquarters in Area11 Garki by 8.am which will take them to the National
Assembly.

There, the women will express to Nigeria’s
Representatives and Senators their growing
concern about the onslaught against women in government, as well as the gradual reduction of the only 33 per cent Affirmative Action under the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan.

“You would recall that another group recently
drew attention to the trend, while reacting to the recent sack of some female Ministers and the outcry in the wake of the purchase of two BMW armoured cars allegedly on the orders of the Aviation Minister, another high-flying member of the President’s Cabinet,” said a NCWS spokesperson.

“No one knows whose turn it soon will be. Now, it is Stella Oduah in the eye of the storm.

“In the words of Group Captain [retd.] Patricia Okibedi at a Media Dialogue in Abuja, Monday, October 29 on the raging controversy over the matter; ‘her (Oduah) huge exploits in the aviation sector are being down-played; it is dangerous for our democracy and for the female specie. We should not throw away the bath water with the baby.’

Okibedi, a NCWS leader, had stated that her
group was disturbed by the emerging trend of vicious attacks on “female rising stars” in the country.
She added that the heat currently being generated in the nation due to “the selective anti-corruption drive which is not founded on concrete facts, is giving pain and concern to all of (them).”

According to her, “an attack on rising female
stars is an attack on President Goodluck
Jonathan who has made history as a staunch
supporter of women empowerment and advancement.”

On Sunday, November 17, 2013, Lagos stood still for Psquare‘s Peter Okoye and fiancée Lola Omotayo as the couple held their traditional wedding ceremony, surprisingly elder brother Jude Okoye was missing.

Social network has been buzzing. The twins’
publicist Bayo Adetu tells NET Jude was missing at the wedding because he was stuck
in Ghana. Psquare had performed in Accra,
Ghana at the ‘Glo and Bounce Slide ‘ tour the
night before. Adetu says Jude missed his flight and couldn’t get back to Lagos in time for the nuptials.

But a source who was part of another
artiste’s entourage to Ghana for the concert says Jude Okoye did NOT travel to Ghana. ‘We didn’t see him, the twins were here with their band but we didn’t see Jude ‘, our source who’d rather stay anonymous tells NET.

There are few instances pointing to the fact that Jude did not travel with his Pop star twin brothers to Ghana for the concert: Jude, a regular user of photo sharing Instagram never fails to post photos of their trip outside Nigeria – there were no photos of him aboard the airplane heading to GH, photos of the twins performing at the concert.

One source asks: ‘If he was truly stuck in Ghana, wouldn’t he have even lamented on Twitter like D’banj? ‘.

Instead Jude posted a photo of himself and Wizkid in the studio. The picture is believed to have been taken a night before at the Mavin Records studio where he had been working with Don Jazzy, Dr SID, Phyno and others.

Inside sources in the Okoye family tell NET that Jude Okoye and a few other family members did not support their brother’s marriage to his baby mama Lola Omotayo.

Some sources also also claim their late mother never supported the relationship too.
‘Jude and some others don’t like her. They never gave their blessing for the marriage. Paul too, but he is his twin. Other family members who were there were reluctant to
attend. Jude didn’t go because he never supported the idea from day one‘, a family
source tells us.

Some of the Okoye family members have even gone as far as insinuating that Lola Omotayo has allegedly constantly cheated on Peter Okoye. NET gathered there have been demands for a DNA test to really ascertain whether his children Cameron and Aliona are truly his. ‘ It’s that serious, they claim Lola sleeps around with her so called ‘uncles’, they want a DNA test done, they just want to protect their brother ‘.

WE could not independently confirm these allegations, and Adetu insists there are no issues, that Jude was only MIA because he was stuck in Ghana. One of the couple’s friends also told us all these are ‘wicked
rumours’. ‘Wicked, false rumours. Nothing can
be more false and distasteful. They should leave them alone and let them have peace…’
Lola currently lives in a mansion in Park View
estate, Ikoyi. The Okoyes are currently building their new home somewhere not to far from there. It is uncertain where the couple will make their home.

Jude Okoye has been working with Psquare, his younger brothers since they released their first album ‘Last Nite‘ under Timbuk2 Music label back in 2003.

EyeKandy: This works.

EyeKandy: No I didn't. Ellen's style is for women that wanna dress like Anderson Cooper.

I love Ellen, but don't wear sneakers to work.
