benjackugo: Billionaire realtor and property merchant, Olu Okeowo has said that should Nigeria disintegrate, the South West will lose out the most as the region has over the years only produced mostly area boys and fake pastors, IgbereTV reports.
Olu Okeowo said this while speaking at a church service organized in his home to mark his birthday over the weekend.
He said;
''I have noticed, electricity is no longer in abundant supply because Shiroro has been surrounded. Gerreru has been surrounded. Electricity is being generated in the North. Those who are saying divide don't know what they are saying. Even if we divide today, the gas that they would use to run any turbine comes from another area.
Unfortunately, my people here from the Southwest will be the ones to lose out most because what we have produced mostly are area boys and fake pastors. We need to pray for the unity of Nigeria.''
I want to quickly address something here. The impression that women steal their husbands' money. Please it's not true.
The below prayer does not mean that women want to steal their husbans' money. It means that God should provide their husbands the kind of money that even give their wives get 1m from them it won't affect them.
jaybenugo: Nigerian actress, Stella Damasus celebrated Mother's Day with her grown-up daughters, Izzy Belle and Angelica as she shared photos of herself posing together with them on her Instagram handle, IgbereTV reports.
BluntCrazeMan: Someone posted the Prayer-Point below on Facebook, and a lot of women were shouting “Amen ooo”:
“God abeg, put my husband in a position where I will secretly withdraw ₦1m+ from his account & he won't notice” .. Honestly speaking, some prayers don't deserve an “Amen”, no matter how it is disguised. Some people may think that the poster was joking, and maybe join in the “Amen” bandwagon jokingly, not knowing that she just prayed to become an in-house thief. . See, if you want God to make your husband very very very rich, then ask God directly to make your husband very very very rich. And God will make your husband very very very rich, to the extent that he would be constantly dropping that type of huge sums for you for no reason at-all, and he would always say: “Oohh, It’s nothing my dear, just keep it”. (I mean, must it be that you must take it “secretly”, before you know that God has answered your prayers??) .. Then, if you want God to make you to become an unnoticed In-House Thief, then ask God directly to make you an unnoticed In-House Thief, or ask HIM to make all your In-house thefts to always successfully go unnoticed. In that case, God will understand, and HE will grant you your heart's desires. .. Let me make it very clear. If your interest is actually in “Secretly Stealing” your husband's money, and you're praying that all your thefts would go unnoticed; then, even when the money is no more there in abundance, since the stealing behaviour had already entered deep into your blood, you will still go and steal the little shishiii wey remain. .. In fact, this question below is for such ladies who say this kind of prayer, (or those who reply “Amen” to such prayers), I would like to hear from you.. What exactly would you do if you discover that your son is praying such prayers too?? (Yes.. His parents' money is also his money, because the bulk of the money will eventually be spent on him - so he has the right to be secretly stealing the money too.... Isn't it??)
[/s]What they mean is, God should make their husbands so rich to a point that even if they get 1m from him it won't affect his pocket.
saintbillion: Councillor Who Built Bridge With Fund Meant To Buy Her Official Car Rejects Donations
Few days ago, the unusual act of service of a councillor named Hon. Onem Tyna Miracle to the people of her community in Ogbia local government area of Bayelsa state shocked Nigerians.
The honourable councillor was reported to have used money she was given to purchase her official car to complete the building project of a bridge linking two communities in Ogbia LGA. Even when the community chiefs tried to discourage her from embarking on the project because they thought it might be too big for her to handle, she insisted that she was going to embark on it even if it was the only thing she can do for her people as councillor. She adds that this is a sacrifice she had to make because she sees it as something more important than driving a car at the moment.
Her story, after it was reported attracted a lot of commendations from Nigerians on social media who praised the selfless attitude she displayed to alleviate the sufferings of her people.
Today, Hon. Onem Tyna Miracle has just revealed on her Twitter handle that she will be turning down donations from Nigerians for any purpose whatsoever. While she appreciates the gesture of those behind the donations, she said she wants to focus on making lasting impact with the little at her disposal and believes that the Governor of Bayelsa state, Senator Duoye Diri, will give her the support she needs to do more for her people.
This is obviously the kind of leadership qualities a lot of Nigerians will like see our elected leaders display more often. I pray Hon. Onem Tyna will continue to imbibe these leadership qualities as she moves up the ladder in her career as a politician.
Actor and comedian, John Okafor, aka Mr Ibu, is one man who can get people to laugh without uttering a word. His funny facial expressions and gesticulations constantly send his fans into fits of laugher. Because of his pot belly, some have also said that he may not have many female admirers, but in an interview with Sunday Scoop, Okafor noted that many women were attracted to him, though he only has eyes for his wife.
He said, “I am not sex-crazed at all. I can abstain for two years. When I had a problem, I stayed off sex for a long time. I am not controlled by sex. As of now, I have stayed off sex for at least four months. Remember that I was poisoned in December 2020, so I need to recuperate before engaging in such acts. My wife is also missing me. It was not easy for her. She was crying every minute because she genuinely loves me.
“Some people have said that people with potbellies are not good lovers or sexually active but being good on the bed is relative. My answer to this is that I have 13 children (10 boys and two girls) though I lost one of them. That is the evidence of my sexual virility. I hatch children like pigeons.”
Mr Ibu further also insisted that he does not cheat on his wife. He added, “I don’t cheat on my wife. I had children before I married her. I left that life because many women wanted to have children for me but I cannot build a primary school in my house. They liked me because I was good in bed and I’m really grateful for that. I knew what they wanted so I was always very gentle with them. Women are attracted to me but I’m only interested in my wife. My wife is as beautiful as I met her, even after four children.”
The actor also stated that his ailment took a toll on his finances. He said, “I have friends that have been financially supportive. I am sure they remember some good things that I have done for them in the past. I stopped working since 2018 but I saved some money when I was very active and that has helped me a great deal. Some fans were also helpful when I was poisoned. The treatment caused me a lot of money and it has really taken a toll on my finances.”
