one dirty girl spotted!

A Facebook user identified as Nsikak Effiong revealed in a status update about a "dirty" girl she met in 2016

She went ahead to say that "she wears 1 pad in three days"

Read what she said below...

I met the dirtiest girl last year. She takes the crown for being the dirtiest.
She wears 1 pad for 3days. I mean, she repeats 1 pad in 3days. Guys, you know how you wear your boxers for days. Bath and wear, bath and wear. Good!
That's her for you. Complains she doesn't have heavy flow.
Baths by 6pm. Then wears the old pad instead of throwing it away.
Next day, she waits till 6pm before she baths. Wears that same pad. When asked, she says she doesn't have a heavy flow.
Why you bathing by 6pm? "I no dey go out na ".
Guys, I don't know what your woman does, but be grateful she's not like this girl.
I had wanted to reply someone on my last post that every woman uses at least 2pads a month, then I remembered this girl and walked away silently.
Oh!
She ain't broke.
Brokenness is not even her middle name.

A 22-year-old farmer, Joshua Tei, has been declared wanted by the police in the Suhum Municipality in Ghana, for allegedly chopping off his girlfriend's hand over suspicion of cheating.

According to Daily Guide, the incident occurred at about 7:30 pm on Saturday at Aponoapono, a farming community in the Eastern Region.

The victim, whose name was given as Patience, has had one of her hands amputated at the Suhum Government Hospital after it could not be sutured and has since been deposited at a mortuary.

It was also reported that the severed hand was reportedly dangling after the gruesome attack.

Narrating the sad event to Daily Guide, Patience said she was in church but came out to receive a phone call and that unknown to her, her former boyfriend, who had laid ambush near the church and monitoring her movement, suddenly emerged from the bush, assaulted her and chopped off the hand that was holding the mobile phone. She said Tei took to his heels thereafter.

According to her, it was until she screamed for help before the congregants in the church came to her rescue and rushed her to the hospital.

It was learned the suspect who is presently at large, had been accusing the victim of cheating on him with another man.

According to some neighbours in the area, Joshua Tei had been threatening the ex-girlfriend and so the latter reported the matter to the former boyfriend's parents but no action was taken.

There is a pandemonium at the headquarters of the Federal Ministry of Finance as civil servants attached to the ministry on Monday embarked on a mild protest over alleged poor welfare condition.

The protest began at about 11am on the first floor of the ministry, with the workers demanding the removal of the Director of Finance and Account, Mr. Daniel Garba, for allegedly refusing to approve their welfare packages.


While some of them were on the first floor demanding Garba’s removal, others moved to the fourth floor where the office of the Permanent Secretary, Mahmoud Dutse, was located and also demanded for his redeployment.

The workers alleged that the leadership of the ministry has not been taking the issue of their welfare seriously.

Look Naija confirmed that a woman in her late 20s, identified as Labisi, and her two-year-old son were electrocuted on Sunday at Alare compound of Aremo in Ibadan North East Local Government Area of Ibadan, Oyo State capital.

Labisi, who was carrying a four-month old pregnancy, got electrocuted as she spread clothes she washed on a wire in her compound.

The deceased apparently was unaware that the wire had been connected to electricity.

Her scream was said to have drawn the attention of her son, who ran to embrace his mother.

“I learnt that one of the operators of the hotel had connected a wire to the house with a bulb affixed to generate light for people passing through the area in the night”, a resident in the area said.

“The wire which was connected to the wire that is being used to spread clothes in the house must have peeled somewhere and the woman did not know.

“We learnt that immediately she was shocked and fell down, she screamed and her little son ran to her. While cuddling her, he also got electrocuted immediately.”

Police Public Relations Officer for Oyo State, Adekunle Ajisebutu, confirmed the incident.

Nollywood Actor, Femi adebayo remembers and reminds Nigerians of his humble beginings.

He shared on an Instagram post including his throwbacks appended with an inspiring note advising young Nigerians.

Read post below..

Listen! Rome Wasn't Built In A Day. It's Okay If You're Aspiring To Reach That High Position, Just Keep In Mind That Every @femiadebayo , @donjazzy And @officiallindaikeji Has A Beginning, Most Likely A Very Rough Beginning.....Trust Me. Growth Is A Process; It's More Rewarding To Pass Through All Its Stages Than To Try To Cut Corners Or Hope For A Sudden Jackpot. In Most Cases It Takes Sitting, Crawling, Walking Before You Can Run Or Fly. So Don't Live Your Life With The Fear Of "What Will People Say" Nothing Good Comes Out From Trying So Hard To Please The World. Run Your Race Not Someone Else's.

Nollywood Actor Yomi Fash Lanso revealed what his Dad did when a Pastor told him to sow his car key as a seed.

Read his story below...

When I was a kid, my dad bought a new car and drove us to church one Sunday. It was a prophetic service and our pastor was being used by God that day to deliver people from poverty.

Suddenly, our pastor looked at my dad and said, "Mr. Alamu, God is set to bless you" my mum jumped up and shouted excitedly, "Amen!!!" My dad was excited too.

The pastor then came closer, placed his hand on my dad's head and prayed for him. As our pastor turned to climb the altar, the spirit of God told him something.

He stopped, looked at my dad and said, "Mr. Alamu did you buy a new car last week?" "Yes sir" my dad responded with much surprise on his face.

Then our pastor said; God said I should tell you to sow your CAR KEY into my life"

I was shocked that my dad did not argue with the pastor, he just put his hand in his pocket, brought out the car key and gave it to our pastor.

Chai... Aiyeeee ooooo...Mogbe
After about 5 minutes, my dad stood up, went outside the church, he didn't even wait till the end of the service. I could see him entering Okada going home. "He must be very worried" I reasoned in utter fear and confusion.

After a while he returned to church with the SPARE KEY of his car and drove the car back to the house.

I was so stunned at what I was seeing.

So when I asked him why he acted that way he said: "Oluwayomi" always use your brain, the pastor asked for the KEY and NOT the CAR"! Thanking you so much my BABA for impacting knowledge.

So what can you say your own BABA TAUGHT YOU

It's inspiring how women can be going through the toughest struggle yet act strong like everything is perfect. Adaeze Igwe-Yobo has shared the story of her struggles as a new mother and it is unbelievable the things she's had to go through.

The former beauty queen and wife of former Nigerian professional footballer, Joseph Yobo, revealed that she suffered difficulties ranging from insufficient breast milk, Postnatal Depression, lethargy, and the pain resulting from Cesarean Section.

She shared a photo of her grinning second son and a tray containing tea and drugs that help mothers produce breast milk. In the caption, she disclosed that while some women have it easy producing breast milk, it was hard for her. She said her youngest child, who is less than 3 months old, is the only child she has breastfed for this long.

With her first son, she had to take a lot of liquid foods, yet could not produce enough breast milk for him. The food made her add weight, the stress to produce enough food for her son made her lethargic, still in all of this, not enough milk was coming and it only compounded her C-section pain. It was so bad that she and her first son cried at some point. She only breastfed him for 3 weeks. With her second son, it was the same and she had to supplement with formula. It's been easier with her daughter though she still has to take Pregnacare to aid milk production.

Below is how she told her story.

Baby no 3 is the only baby i breastfed for this long. Some have it easy and others like me drank 2large bowls of custard, took nursing tea n all and still had only 1-2oz of breastmilk, gained tons of weight and had no energy most of the time, so I gave up early cos the baby and i Cldnt deal with the stress. With my ist son, we both cried cos i was in C-sec pain, had bad PND and baby wasnt getting enough milk. to think i actually planned to breastfeed for 2years, and only did it for 3wks 2nd one I swore I wldnt even breastfeed cos of my last experience but once I had him, he latched unto the boobies like a pro so I gave in but the milk was still low at 5weeks, so i had to supplement with formula which was a bad idea cos he fell in love with the milk flow and rejected bosom. However, with "ma piinches" (My princess) *in jaydens voice* it's been pure bliss, no PND, I'm always full of energy even though I don't get as much sleep at night. Anyway, i dont know how long I want to breastfeed for, I'll just go with the flow for now cos I like the way she looks into my eyes while nursing #momlife #11weekspostpartum #breastfeedingrant#mothersareamazing #morningrant have a great day lovers

Nigerian gay right activist, Bisi Alimi, has stated that there is no obligation binding one to take care of their parents at old age.

According to Alimi, you have nothing to do with your parents when they are old except you are still living with them.

He told Nigerians that they did not beg their parents to have sex which led to procreation and as such, they should become their pension scheme.

The controversial gay activist had earlier declared that he do not believe in God.

In a post on his Facebook page, he said, “The idea that it is the responsibility of the struggling young to take care of the struggling old is a myth sold to you by the corrupt politicians who have stolen the resources of your commonwealth.

“Nigerians, doomed financial vicious circle is when your parents brought you up so you can be their cow to milk, while you look forward to doing same to your children.

“I understand that the system is bleeped, pension money is being embezzled by stupid greedy politicians, the same ones you worship and bow to, and there is no guarantee for old age, but Bleep, the system won’t fix itself. If you don’t resist, you will be consumed.

“The idea that it is the responsibility of the struggling young to take care of the struggling old is a myth sold to you by the corrupt politicians who have stolen the resources of your commonwealth.

“Remember, one rich man among 100 poor men will eventually end up being poor.

“You only have two commitments in life; yourself and your children and that’s until they are old enough to be kicked out of the house.

“You do not, I repeat, you do not owe your parents any pay back unless you are still living with them, which means get the Bleep out or start paying rent and bills.

“Remember, you didn’t beg them to have sex, they wanted to have children, it’s their choice, you should not be their old age pension scheme.

“Only do it if you can and have the resources to, but even with that, know the limit or they will emotionally blackmail you and milk you dry.”

Actress, Toyin Abraham is ready to go into a relationship again, but this time the delectable actress has set a goal.

In a new interview with Punch, she listed some of the qualities she is looking out for which of course includes physical attributes and also a social standing. She also spoke about her career and weight loss.

See the excerpts:

On the man she wants:

“I want a man who is tall, hardworking, and loves his job. I would want to be with a man who does not chase women and would not constantly request for money from me. If he needs my help, I can do it. I don’t want to be with a short man. My man has to be taller than I am.”

On weight loss:

“Why would I change my look because of any man when I have my job, my career, and people who look up to me? I love my new look because it has helped my career a lot. Now I get more roles even in the English speaking industry and most of the movies are in the cinemas. Also my clothes fit me well. My stylist does not have to go extra mile to make my clothes.”

On why she changed her surname from Aimakhu to Abraham:

“Abraham is my father’s name and it was a family decision. I cannot be talking about my family online, it is my life. My brother who is also a famous dancer bears the name, David Abraham. That shows that it is my father’s name. At first I thought about my brand before changing the name but eventually, I had to change it. I did not want to change it but my business manager asked me to do so. I know the decision confused some of my fans but with time, they would get used to it. I am Toyin Abraham now and I am building a new brand.”

On dealing with controversies:

“I feel it is normal and comes with the territory of being an actress. Based on the fact that I am an actress, people will always tag me with something. It hurts when they say I was in a relationship with someone I never dated or when they write about things that I did not do and just put it out there. Sometimes I read such write-ups and begin to wonder if I ever did those things but what will I do?

“To be great in life, you have to be willing to be mocked, hated and misunderstood. I don’t see criticism as anything and I am not bothered whenever I am being criticised by the public. I know that some people would love me and others would hate me, so I do not let that disturb me. Trust me, the criticism only makes me a better person, so when people say negative things about me, it makes me understand that I cannot be right every time. I thank God that I am now getting some things right.”

It's no new thing that foreign newspapers do make blunders about reporting news in Africa most especially Nigeria and mistaking a nearby country with it.

There was a time when CNN made this blunder during the ebola outbreak period with Nigeria and Niger.

This time around, it's New York Times turn to make this silly mistake using president Buhari's family picture for a Ghanaian news report about "Britain accusing some lawmakers from Ghana of falsifying visa documents for family members".

Trust Nigerians, they blasted the hell out of NY times on Twitter.
