10 Hidden Reasons Women Cheat in Relationships

Infidelity is a complex issue, and women cheat for various emotional, psychological, and situational reasons. Here are ten common factors that contribute to female infidelity:

1-Emotional Neglect – Many women seek emotional intimacy in relationships. If they feel unheard, unappreciated, or emotionally disconnected from their partner, they may turn to someone else for comfort and validation.

2-Lack of Attention – When a partner becomes distant, inattentive, or takes the relationship for granted, some women may seek attention elsewhere to feel valued and desired.

3-Se=ual Dissatisfaction – If their physical needs are unmet, whether due to lack of intimacy, mismatched libidos, or unfulfilling experiences, some women may look outside the relationship for satisfaction.

4-Revenge or Retaliation – If a woman discovers her partner’s infidelity or feels deeply wronged, she may cheat as a form of revenge, seeking to hurt them in return.

5-Boredom and Desire for Excitement – Long-term relationships can become routine and predictable. Some women may cheat for thrill, novelty, or adventure that their current relationship lacks.

6-Low Self-Esteem – A woman struggling with self-worth may cheat to seek external validation, proving to herself that she is still desirable and attractive.

7 Emotional Connection with Someone Else – Women often develop deep emotional bonds with friends or coworkers, which can gradually turn into romantic or physical affairs READ FULL ARTICLE

Fubara Makes Me Weep- Wike

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said that he often wept because of the alleged betrayal shown to him by the suspended Governor of Rivers State, Siminalayi Fubara.

Wike, a former governor of Rivers State, made this statement during a media parley in Abuja on Monday.

“When I go back in my quiet moments, I play the video of speeches of the governor (Fubara), what he said, what he did to me, I weep,” Wike said.

Further speaking, he lamented the way he was treated by Fubara despite the role he played in ensuring he became Rivers governor,

“This is somebody who brought you, gave you food, gave you everything, did this to you, and then you became a tool for his enemies to fight him.”

Meanwhile, Wike said he will lead the campaign of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2027 presidential election.

This was as he dismissed the allegation of undermining the opposition party by serving in the administration of President Bola Tinubu.

“I am still in PDP. I worked hard for the party,” Wike asserted. “I have not seen anybody who has the guts to tell me, ‘Wike, you are not a member of the party.’ Who is that? What is his contribution to the party that is more than me?

“No one will take me from the party. I’m a member. In fact, I’ll lead the PDP campaign in Rivers by 2027.”

Wike also revealed his delight in challenging powerful persons, especially in his role as FCT minister.

He said, “Look at what we are doing differently. People have said that FCT was not working (but) now it is working, which means I’m doing things that they (past FCT ministers) refused to do.

“I found out that most of them didn’t have the courage to annoy people, to step on toes, but I take joy when I step on the toes of big men; those who say nothing will happen, but I say something will CONTINUE READING

ABUJA: Wike Declare Takeover of PDP Properties For Defaulting On Ground Rent

The Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, has announced that the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) will begin the takeover of properties, including the national headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), over unpaid ground rent, starting Monday, May 26, 2025.

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that the land housing the permanent headquarters of the PDP, currently under construction in Abuja’s Central Business District, is among the affected properties, having been revoked in March due to several years of unpaid ground rent.

The announcement was made on behalf of Wike during a joint press briefing in Abuja on Friday, featuring key FCTA officials including the Minister’s Senior Special Assistant on Public Communication and Social Media, Mr. Lere Olayinka; Director of Land Administration, Mr. Chijioke Nwankwoeze; and Director of Development Control, Mr. Mukhtar Galadima.

The officials disclosed that 4,794 titles had been revoked for failure to pay ground rent, with some defaults dating back 43 years. Among the affected properties is the PDP’s permanent headquarters, under construction in the Central Business District of Abuja.

“Ownership of the revoked 4,794 properties in the Central Area, Garki I and II, Wuse I and II, Asokoro, Maitama, and Guzape districts had already reverted to the FCTA.
And as from Monday, next week, the government will begin to exercise its rights of ownership on the affected landed properties,” the officials said.

“As usual, this will be done without consideration as to ownership of the affected landed properties. It will be purely in line with extant laws and regulations guiding the process.”

The revocations were carried out under Section 28(5)(a)(b) of the Land Use Act, which empowers the government to reclaim land when the terms of occupancy are violated, the statement said.

The FCTA said the affected owners had defaulted on over N6.96 billion in ground rent, and recalled that the administration had given a 21-day grace period for owners with debts under 10 years, which has now expired.

Speaking during the briefing, the Director of Land Administration, Chijioke Nwankwoeze, emphasized, “It is clearly stipulated in the terms and conditions of the grant of Right of Occupancy, and it is due for payment on the first day of January, each year, without deman..CONTINUE YOUR READING

OFFICIAL: Atiku, Obi, El-Rufai Finally Seal Opposition Deal Ahead of 2027


Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Labour Party’s Peter Obi, and former Kaduna State Governor Nasir El-Rufai have reportedly concluded months of negotiations aimed at forging a united opposition front to challenge President Bola Tinubu in the next general election in 2027.

According to sources familiar with the matter, the three opposition heavyweights reached a consensus on Tuesday to consolidate efforts under a single political platform, although the agreement has not been officially announced.

The alliance marks a mending of political fences between the former rivals, whose division before the 2023 presidential election was widely viewed as a major contributor to President Tinubu’s victory. Collectively, Atiku and Obi secured significantly more votes than Tinubu’s 8.7 million, indicating that a united opposition could present a formidable challenge in the 2027 race.

BREAKING: Top Red List Criminal Arrested In Nigerian Airports

The minister of interior, Olubunmi Tunji-Ojo, says criminals on the red list of the International Criminal Police Organisation (Interpol) have been arrested at Nigerian airports.

Tunji-Ojo said the individuals, who were declared wanted by several European countries, were apprehended within two days of entering the country.

He said the arrests were possible due to recent investments in surveillance and intelligence-gathering technology at the country’s border points.

The minister spoke on Tuesday at a regional workshop on maritime border security themed “Regional Maritime Border Security in the Context of Counter Terrorism in the Gulf of Guinea”, held in Lagos.

He said the suspects originated from countries including Italy and the Republic of Ireland.

His words: “I can tell you that to a large extent, we have built a robust database, and we are reaping the fruits of that.

“Now, it will interest you that a couple of weeks ago, within two days, a lot of people on the Interpol and red list were arrested at our airports. It means that these people would have come in.

“One came from Italy, one came from Ireland, the other one, I think, from a couple of countries. These people would have come into Nigeria 18 years ago, but now we know that in terms of our air terminals, they are in sync because it’s integrated into the central system.”

Tunji-Ojo said Nigeria now has an Advanced Passenger Information (API) system that allows authorities to screen passengers before arrival.

He said the API enables immigration officials to assess passengers’ records, travel history and personal background in line with international protocols.

He said: “Now, we can tell you that Nigeria now has an API solution. We never had that before now.

“Before now, we were one of the few countries without an API solution, without the opportunity for our immigration officers to pre-profile people coming into Nigeria, not being able to query their background, query their record system, query their antecedents and their travel history.

Jonathan Cautions Politicians: ‘One-Party System Dangerous for Nigeria’s Democracy

Former President Goodluck Jonathan has warned that turning Nigeria into a one-party state would harm the nation’s democracy.

Jonathan made his displeasure known while speaking in Abuja on Wednesday during a memorial lecture for the late elder statesman, Edwin Clark.

“Any nation that must practice it must do so carefully and with a well-planned process and projected outcome,” Jonathan said.

His comments come amid concerns over growing defections of opposition politicians to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and continued internal crises in opposition parties. Many believe these are being influenced by President Bola Tinubu and his party to weaken the opposition.

Jonathan stressed that trying to create a one-party system through manipulation and selfish ambitions would be dangerous. According to him, any attempt to bring about a one-party state through political machinations to soothe personal aspirations will be detrimental to the country.

He also urged the family of the late Edwin Clark to set up an annual memorial lecture in his name, to promote his vision of a united and fair Nigeria.

Also speaking at the event, the Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, expressed concern about Nigeria’s current direction. He said the labour of heroes past was already in vain pointing to poverty in rural areas, insecurity, and the high cost of living.

NTSB Reveals Cause of Crash That Killed Wigwe

The United States National Transportation Safety Board has attributed the helicopter crash that killed former Access Holdings CEO, Herbert Wigwe, his wife, son, and three others to pilot error caused by spatial disorientation.

The NTSB report, released on Wednesday, further indicted the helicopter company, accusing it of “inadequate oversight of its safety management processes”.

This was contained in the NTSB final report unravelling the reasons for the helicopter crash in February 2024.

Preliminary report had earlier shown that the helicopter, registered as N130CZ, crashed while operating under visual flight rules in what ultimately became instrument meteorological conditions, requiring different flight protocols and instrumentation.

According to the report, investigators determined the “probable cause of this accident to be: the pilot’s decision to continue the visual flight rules flight into instrument meteorological conditions, which resulted in the pilot’s spatial disorientation and loss of control.”

The crash, which occurred near the California-Nevada border on February 9, 2024, claimed the lives of all six people on board, including Wigwe, his wife Doreen, their son Chizi, and Abimbola Ogunbanjo, former group chairman of Nigerian Exchange Group Plc.


The US accident investigators further revealed that the helicopter company failed to ensure pilots properly completed flight risk analyses, recorded maintenance issues, and followed required regulations before departure.

According to the report, investigators determined the “probable cause of this accident to be: the pilot’s decision to continue the visual flight rules flight into instrument meteorological conditions, which resulted in the pilot’s spatial disorientation and loss of control.”

Don’t Use What You Oppose – Omokri Tells Obi on Lagos-Calabar Highway

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has said ex-presidential candidate, Peter Obi, must not be seen travelling on the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway when the construction is completed.

According to him, this is because Obi criticised the construction of the road embarked on by President Bola Tinubu.

In a post on Facebook, Omokri revealed that when the road is completed, it will be the single largest infrastructural project in Nigeria.

He shared, "This aerial photo of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway was taken on Saturday, April 12, 2025. Do you see how beautiful and scenic the road is shaping up to be? When completed by President Bola Tinubu, this will be the single largest infrastructural project in Nigeria.

"Peter Obi, since you are the Agbotikuyo enemy of progress who was against this project, please do not let us catch you on this road when it is completed."

Reacting, a Facebook user, Akinwekomi Joseph, said, "Peter obi doesn't know meaning of green light energy. I just imagine how igbo people chose Peter obi as governor for Anambra? Apart from speaking English MC oluomo is 100% better than Peter obi. if Igbo can choose Pitobi as their only best man in Igbo land, which MC Oluomo that they called illiterate is far better than Pitobi it means we should not take Pitobi supporters serious again."

Toba Dada said, "We must not catch Peter Obi there o! But he may ply the road by midnight when we are all in our beds o!"

Naija Minded said, "Chaai. God bless Tinubu. Obi is a tribal bigot. If the project had started from Anambra, would he have reared his ugly head? I think the inclusion of South-South itself angers him the more. He thinks everyone is wretched without vision who only wants to eat today and forget the future if those before us had sacrificed like this, we would be in greater wealth now as a nation. This project is Nigeria's future, with South-South included. People like BAT are never loved, but they are movers. I did not waste my vote when I voted for him."
