Mscheew. I have no fear whatsoever. I laugh seeing my dad fear being called ‘old man‘ yet using his age (and so called experience) to his advantage whenever it suits him. I have read books and seen examples of people who froze their physical abilities from their thirties into their nineties. I know I have nothing to fear so far I stay in shape consistently.

I feel bad for the females who spread their legs wide for these NFA musicians.

“Don’t feed the trolls.” Small Toke knows this. I wonder why agbaya aunty doesn’t.

Nigerians are eager to consume information that are on the front burner and once the sensation surrounding the information dies down, they quickly move on to the next trending piece of information. But since the Federal Ministry of Health confirmed the first coronavirus disease (COVID-19) case in Lagos State, every other issue in the country has been relegated to the background.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, some states in Nigeria were on total or partial lockdown and Nigerians groaned because of the anxieties associated with the lockdown.

Every sector of the economy is at a halt. Even the entertainment industry is also affected. During this toxic time in the history of the nation’s health sector, one could only but wish that there are creative and engaging television content such as the Big Brother Naija reality show to help ease the tension and keep our young ones meaningfully engaged.

Television is a powerful medium of communication. Kofi Annan, former Secretary-General of the United Nations described television as a “tremendous force for good. It can educate great numbers of people about the world around them”. For example, in the 80s, the National Orientation Agency (NOA) used television as powerful medium to push campaigns such as Mass Mobilization for Self-Reliance, Social Justice, and Economic Recovery (MAMSER) and War Against Indiscipline (WAI).

While some may perceive the Big Brother Naija reality show as a highly controversial television content- this can be a subject of debate on another platform. However, such controversy is good for the show as it makes the organisers to bring their A-game by creatively looking for ways to appeal to a mass television audience.

The Big Brother Naija reality show; then known Big Brother Nigeria first aired in 2006, it involved a group of strangers sharing a camera-filled house for about 12 weeks. Every move is monitored and broadcast 24 hours a day to millions of viewers via a dedicated TV channel. The housemates interact with each other and participate in physical and mental challenges while in the house.

Each week, at least one housemate with the lowest number of votes is evicted. The eviction follows secret nominations by the housemates and voting by viewers and the final housemate in the house emerges the winner of the reality show. Since 2006 till date, the format of the show has not changed so much.

Although the first edition of the reality show in Nigeria did not come with a theme. But subsequent editions had themes that guided the show. The second edition was; “See Gobbe, the third edition was; “Double Wahala” and last year’s edition (the fourth edition) was “Pepper Dem.” Apparently these themes are deliberately chosen to cause some excitement in the House and increase the show’s intensity.

Last year, Mercy Chinenye Eke, the 26-year-old graduate of Imo State University won the ultimate prize. Making her the first female to emerge winner of the reality show since inception. It was reported that last edition of the show recorded 240 million votes. This attests to the fact that organisers of the reality show have used television as a medium of communication to capture a large number of Nigerian youth.

Statistics indicate that at the heart of BBNaija’s influence is a nucleus of a young demographic. These young Nigerians are valuable consumers because they influence the purchasing decisions of their family and friends. Young people are important to numerous markets, from fashion, mobile, and technology to alcohol, snack foods and entertainment. Without these young Nigerians, a sizable number of businesses would not exist because these young folks spend money, and they inspire others to do so.

But as is typical in Nigeria where people leave the ball to kick the leg, all manner of controversy would be played up about this powerful reality show. That notwithstanding, the government and other stakeholders need to take advantage by using the BBNaija platform to promote societal values and shun vices such as drug addiction, cultism, sexual harassment, female genital mutilation, child labour, girl-child abuse and most importantly, create awareness on the Coronavirus pandemic just as housemates have campaigned against malaria and polio in previous editions.

k.

Yeah, whatever.

I bet she’ll use that money to head over to Jamaica and get serviced by boy toys. She looks white herself.

Their fifteen seconds of fame is on its last legs.

OP really thinks he’s chatting with Seun. Lol. I said it before: he’s scared to use his regular account so he won’t catch a long ban. I bet Seun kept hiding his spam on the regular hence why he thinks this is revenge of some sort. R.I.P. to this thread. I’ve seen enough.

How did Coronavirus lead to him needing a poop tube?

Too much prevention is not enough prevention. Unlike back then when they could congregate while wearing masks, we have less chances of spreading the plague already upon us. Why is this? It is simple: we are locked down at home and practicing proper hygiene. It saddens me to realize that once this virus is under control or accepted as a reality of life, all the hand sanitizers and soaps which grace public places will disappear once again.

MrHighSea:

Stubborn somebody.
Au u

emmy2fyn:
OK thanks so much

So, what did you do in the end?

How tall is her mother first of all? That’s the important question no one is asking.

MrHighSea:
I believe two sensible adults can take care of them selves.

Family planning should be their watch word.

Why u

At age fifty when you’re cheating on your wife for the third or fourth time, you’ll laugh at this naivety. I assure you of it.

The Coronavirus was quicker to lock everyone home before him. He should try again next year.

Sorry OP, she’s married to ex governor Adams Oshiomhole. Now continue with your life.

What Radio Station Is The Best For News And Politics?

Yes.

So, October it is again. Ultimate Love was a flop so they quickly ran to the winning formula.

Orces:
This come as a shock to me, as I thought they were way behind on the long march to equality.
All homophobes, know that Nigeria is next

They may try to stifle you, kill you, phase you out... Just know you're valid and one day Nigeria will be safe for all irrespective of personal orientation

The homophobes know it and it kills them every night to acknowledge it. It’s funny because the idiots against it now will see it as a normal thing in twenty or forty years time. They’ll look back at their current actions in shame.

If that car is her personally customized ride, it will blow my head.

I didn’t see any picture with the sky black. Who creates these fake news?

Good riddance to bad rubbish. At least one less cultist off the street. He was a student. If he faced his books squarely and left any form of ruggedity, in a few years time he would graduate to become employable. The guys who killed him, their lives begin and end in the streets. They see no future for themselves so taking lives mean nothing to them. I hope his body was thrown in the trash where it belonged.

Buyer’s remorse is already setting in. Whether a man sleeps with a woman or not, if he sees the trouble living with her isn’t worth the cost, he’ll move eventually. That was how I played hard to get for one guy I didn’t like, but he kept persisting. He gave himself sense after a few months and disappeared. I always thought the promise of sex was why he stayed and he’ll remain for years so far I gave him hope. My guy pack bag move on, leaving me a shadow of myself.

I don’t even know her.

...and yet no personal pictures posted as proof.

Brightgem:
I hope this speaks to the heart and stimulates good judgment in someone today. Welcome to my small corner of musings.

We expire as women and many other sick notions society uses to define us which sadly has led many to the famous express the masquerade was warned not to enter, so that it doesn’t get hit. Hopefully ladies, after reading this you don’t become that masquerade. Hopefully, men after reading this, you can change how you raise your daughters, or your future daughters.

So society says your biological clock is ticking. If you’ve been saying this to yourself, stop now! If you’ve been saying this to others! STOP NOW! let me tell you how a woman who believes this behaves.

She runs after everything that looks like love or potential. She acts desperate to become Mrs somebody and doesn’t mind the hooligan she might end up with to keep up with this, because in her head she can change him and besides her biological clock is ticking. She fears the number 30 hitting her as her age because that’s the number of decline of her life as society says. If she’s married, because her biological clock is ticking, she fails to settle into life and be calm, to enjoy marital bliss, even the pressure that doesn’t exist, she creates one for herself. She’s still running here and there drinking all manner of concoction to have a child. I am not berating the pain of childlessness, but I wish people can learn that sometimes a child may not come through you but one can grow through you, and that’s just as beautiful. Because as long as it’s no fault of yours, you should not feel ashamed that for now you aren’t able to birth a child.

In one of my videos where I talked about the rising rape culture in Nigeria, I mentioned an experience at a meet up event addressing the same rape issues and one of the stories shared was that of a woman who encouraged her husband to rape her neighbors baby because some vodoo man told her that was the way she could have a child. They did it and I can’t recall if that baby survived or not, how evil and desperate can you be, to destroy a child in order to have your own? When you desperately want something, this is how your mind will tilt towards evil till you turn the thought into action.

Society tells you if you hit 30 you have started to expire, that you are damaged goods, you are less desirable. I tell you today that if 30 is nearing for you dear good woman, embrace it, long for it, usher it in with celebration and joy in your heart. 3 decades on earth is beautiful, you are not who you were in your 20s you know a lot more, you are as beautiful as you treat and make yourself feel. It’s about you, not the world. You are as beautiful as you feel inside.

You are made to feel that you you must dull your shine, downplay or hide your achievements. You can’t buy that land, that house, that car because you will intimidate some people. Please don’t wait for certain things to happen before you live your best life, don’t postpone your fulfillment and joy, the right people in your life will never be intimidated by your shine, the ones that are and want you to dim your light to make them more comfortable should be kicked out the door. As long as you have worked honestly to earn all you have, you are on the right track and should remain there.

You are made to feel you only have a place in either your father’s house or your husband’s. Please don’t be that person, you are made to feel that you only have a spot in one of those two places, but I tell you, you can create your own haven. It’s painful to see women kicked out of husbands’ houses and fathers’ houses too reject them. Sometimes the two homes meant to be your place of refuge, becomes your place of torture. This is why all your life, while women are known to live for others, to sacrifice for others which is a natural trait of the woman, while all this is true and noble, you must learn to have your own life, a little something that belongs to you and you alone, so that when the world wants to tear you apart and you have no support from those meant to protect you, you run back to your little thing. Decide what that thing will be, and never lack those human beings that come rain or shine you are certain will always have your back. Have a solid support system.

Dear men, please do not raise your daughters to believe once they leave your home, they have no safety net with you anymore, you are the original protectors of your daughters. It is not your business what people will say, when people go to bed at night they are thinking about their own lives. It is your duty to protect and preserve the dignity of your daughter.

Society sometimes speak to us like we are objects or properties. No, women are complete human beings.
Marriage is not a ticket to heaven. Your worth and value before God is not by your married title, every human being has a unique purpose, some listen to their inner voices and find it, some spend all their lives listening to others around them and never find it, they define themselves based on everything from outside, but never anything from inside.

This is why it’s important to be alone for a while to be okay with being alone, great people, even the prophets of God found themselves in solitude. They heard and understood their purpose in solitude. Have you found yourself? Do you know where you want to be and how you want to get there? Have you been asking yourself questions and answering them?

If you desire to get married are you clear about the kind of partner you want? Have you asked yourself the behaviors you could never tolerate? Have you agreed with yourself what you may be able to tolerate? If you are married and raising kids, are you parenting deliberately, or leaving everything on autopilot? Do you have a plan for if life takes you on routes completely new to you?

We’ve been emotionally blackmailed into believing a lot of things, things that have become ingrained in our subconscious. Sometimes we are even told it’s God that has instructed these twisted notions, a weapon used by those who want to control us, make us beneath them and more. Believe me when I say, if something doesn’t feel right and they tell you it’s from God, don’t just swallow it, check it well, because God doesn’t intend a hard life for us, yes there’ll be hardships but He has also promised that after pain will come ease.

I wish we all come to understand, men inclusive, that we are only defined by what we choose as definition for ourselves, not what others say.

I wish we can all learn, that pressure from outside can barely get us, when we maintain our calm on the inside.

If you believe you expire, you will behave like an expired person. Ugly, tired, desperate, fake, manipulative. But if you are calm and full of yourself on the inside, full of positive thoughts, you will easily see through those who just want to make you lesser. Who think that you too must conform to everything society says. Who are you not to conform.

There’s more to this existence called life than they make us believe. Find You today! And start to rise like a true bright star.

I want to say so much more but since it’s getting difficult to craft it into words. I’ll stop here. Thanks for reading.

I leave this video to thirsty boys with too much data.

Hmm, cute.

Multichoice should either post the content on their Catch Up function or somebody (which I know you useless children here can’t) should point me in the way to download the 1080p version.
