Autos'limousine' Keke Napep Spotted In Festac, Lagos (photos) by uche87(op): 11:47am On Mar 01, 2017
An ultramodern Tricycle caused a stir in the FESTAC Town area of Lagos State yesterday around 6th Avenue.

In the coming months, technologically improved Tricycles might be storming Nigeria as Lagosians have started importing them.

The Tricycle which is well covered like a mini-bus costs a whooping sum of N750, 000 as against the conventional one that goes for a sum of N650,000.

It comes with an extra seat, doors, windows, standard roof and more space with a small cooling fan to boost ventilation.

The interesting feature of the Tricycle is that it doesn't use fuel. It is powered by electricity. The Tricycle operator told a Tori News correspondent it could move around town for a period of two days after being charged for just four hours.

The new Keke Napep is very rare in Lagos as commercial riders are watching earnestly before investing in such. The improved Tricycle road rode around 6th Avenue in Festac Town towards the Apple junction area amidst amusement by passers-by and commuters.

Unfortunately, the disadvantage of using the 'Limousine Keke' surfaced as the jolly ride involving some officials of Tori News was cut short when the battery of the transportation system suddenly went flat.

It had to be apparently towed to when it could be charged around 7:30pm. The reporters were left stranded as they took pictures to share with the world.
The bad news again is that the 'Limousine Keke Napep' is imported. Such a simple Tricycle can be conveniently developed in Nigeria if our brothers in the South-eastern part of Nigeria can simply focus and be financed by the government.

PoliticsJourney To Redemption: Read D Full Text Of Akeredolu's Inaugural Speech In Ondo by uche87(op): 2:13pm On Feb 24, 2017
This is the full text of the inaugural speech of the 6th civilian governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo, SAN on the 24th of February, 2017 tagged 'Journey To Redemption'.

Humbled by the uncommon kindness of the Almighty God and an unequivocal expression of preference by the good people of Ondo State, exemplified by the victory of our great party at the last gubernatorial election, I am extremely delighted to share with you all the joy of this day of glory.We are grateful to Almighty God for granting this state such a beautiful day and a beautiful moment like this.

I thank the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and leader of our great party, President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR, for his leadership and unwavering stance to support what is just and noble. Today’s celebration would, perhaps, have been impossible without his steely disposition to always stand against all acts not in consonance with decency, probity and justice.

I thank the President of Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki and the Speaker of the House of Representatives Hon. Yakubu Dogara. I thank all APC Governors who stood to be counted with us in our hour of need andother eminent Nigerians too numerous to mention.

An especial reverence must be reserved for our indefatigable party chairman, Chief John Odigie Oyegun, whose strict adherence to lofty principles and doggedness laid the foundation for our resounding victory at the polls. This exemplary leader behaved like a true elder, whose sagely presence in the village square not only professed rectitude but acted it, resolutely, affirming nobility of the human spirit. Our party benefitted, tremendously, from his vast experience in public service. We are eternally grateful. The verdict of history shall be kind to him.

We express our profound appreciation to all the leaders of the party, at the national, state, local government, ward and unit levels, for their untiring and selfless efforts during the election.

May I also use this opportunity to pay tribute to those who have served this state in this capacity, both living and departed, for their invaluable contributions to the development of the state. On behalf of our State, I pay tribute to Governor OlusegunAbdulramanMimiko for his several years of service toOndo State. I thank all our guests and friends both far and near who have taken it upon themselves to be here or sent words. I thank all citizens of Ondo state, particularly our resilient youths and women.

I come to you this day, with a message of hope, a clear agenda of prosperity and a vision of life abundant. I believe the greatest expression of faith in our ability is to be strong enough to look upon our imperfections and decide that it is in our power to remake our society to align with our highest ideals.

We can rise out of this dust and build a new Ondo state where honesty, prosperity and confidence can once again be our self-identity. We can pull ourselves by the bootstraps and shake off our current frustrations and disappointments. We must recognise the need for a cohesive platform, indispensable to an effective and efficient implementation of policies and programmes of both government and party, respectively.

Divergence of opinions is integral to party politics. We are bound to disagree as politicians but we must cast aside bitter recriminations and destructive predilections. Democracy thrives on infinite multiplicity of ideas. Popular participation is one of its fundamental norms. The subordination of individual preferences for the collective will is essential if we are to avoid anarchy. Party supremacy should be respected at all times. This should not be difficult for us to accept if we are truly desirous of bringing about positive change in the lives of our people.

We listened to the voices of our people in the course of our campaigns to all the nooks and crannies of the state. We heard themloud and clear through their votes. We witnessed, first hand, the deplorable conditions under which they exist. To those who cast their ballots in favour of our programmes, your trust is not misplaced. We are determined to make the difference with the specific mandate of redemption liberally handed over to us. Those who expressed other preferences are no less patriotic. Before long their anxieties will be addressed, realistically. All of us will be involved in the reconstruction project. The collective interest of the state must be our paramount focus. Consequently,we stand before you to pledge, with the guidance of God and our resolve not to renege on our promise, that your welfare shall form the basis of all our activities.

To achieve this, the main mission of our administration is therefore to lead a patriotic, highly inspired and competent team to rescue the ship of our state. We intend to help rebuild our economy, resuscitate damaged infrastructure, restore hope and return our state to a prosperous land. We are determined as an administration to break down the barriers that have made stagnation possible. We will break down the barriers to honest leadership, to comprehensive development, to physical growth and social security. These we intend to do through the promotion of transparent leadership, rule of law, extensive consultation, quality and accessible public utilities and social security; all in a sustainable manner.

We acknowledge the enormous challenges faced by the state and the severely limited resources available to meet these ever-increasing and compelling demands. In readiness for this enormous task ahead, I have two months ago inaugurated a Strategic Development and Policy Implementation Committee comprising of eminent and very knowledgeable Nigerians to produce and articulate a compressive change policy and programme blueprint. They have since submitted their preliminary report.

This blueprint is anchored on five cardinal programmes, which are popularly known as our Platforms for Change (JMPPR). These are:

1. Job creation through Agriculture, Entrepreneurship and Industrialisation.
2. Massive Infrastructural development and maintenance.
3. Provision of functional Education and Technological growth.
4. Provision of Accessible and Qualitative Health care and social service delivery.
5. Rural Development and Community Extension services.

This platform for Change is erected on strong pillars, which consist of the core sectors of government activities that our blueprint lays emphasis on. These are Finance and Management of state resources, Health and Social Services, Infrastructure and Public utilities, Agriculture and Natural resources, Commerce and Industrial development, Education and Technology, Land, Housing and Environment, Women Affairs and Social Development, Youth and Sports development, Culture and Tourism as well as Information, Civic orientation and Mobilisation among others.

Our blueprint when unveiled shall explain in details our philosophy, vision, sectoral policies and comprehensive Programmes of action clearly calendared over a period of a tenure of four years. With this document our pact with the people will be clear, our path well defined and expectations clearly understood.

In building the structure to deliver on our campaign promises, I come to you with a clear mind and an honest heart, to serve and give the very best of my ability to restore Hope and Happiness to our people. I urge you to see hope the way I see it. I see hope with limitless boundaries for endless opportunities for all of us. I see hope for progress, stability and prosperity for all people of goodwill who are willing to contribute their quota to developing our state to a land of honourable, contented, smart, honest, diligent and patriotic people. I see hope for self-confidence, job security and increased commerce and economic production. I see hope for redemption and renewal of our broken infrastructure, and social values.

But make no mistake about it; our journey to redemption will not be without stress and undulating curves. There are mountains before us to climb. As we climb up these steep mountains. Sometimes we may trip or slip, we will get back up. We will focus on the journey. We will never stop. We will never stop. We will never stop. In the end we will reach our goal, which is to bring back jobs to our youths, food to families, safety, confidence and prosperity to this land.

For all these to happen, I am humbly going to ask ONLY one thing from you, good people of Ondo state. What I ask for is Attitude. We need to come with an attitude of belief and transformation. Indeed, in all successful cultures and societies, attitude is the spirit and driver of victory.

Ladies and gentlemen, for us to see the change we all desire, we must be ready to constitute ourselves into change evangelists with exceptional missionary zeal to succeed. We must know that the man in the mirror is you and I. We need to have faith and find courage in the words of the good scripture thatsays, “Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not be faint.”

I believe if we combine these abilities with the force of Providence, a lot of great deeds will happen. We shall not subject ourselves to any specious and unproductive stereotypes, which find expression in the usual egregious celebration of the passage of time spent in office as achievement. We will be too busy to notice the pace of the itinerary of the administration.

Our state is particularly lucky. We have men and women of quality. We set the pace for others in the not too distant past. The country depended, to a very great extent, on our resourcefulness. We contributed, immensely, to the GDP of the country at a time when agriculture was the mainstay of the country’s economy. Our people were exemplars in virtually all fields of human endeavour. The story is, painfully, different today.

The fault, as the saying goes, is not in our stars but in ourselves that our fortunes have dwindled, considerably, and we have become underlings. We have transited, regrettably, from a producing economy to a basically consumptive society, which depends, almost solely, on handouts to survive. The resultant effect of this unproductive attitude is grinding poverty, desperation and hopelessness among our people.

It is a cruel irony that a state, richly endowed in material and human resources, wallows in inexplicable privation. Our unproductive taste has sustained the dichotomy between the rural areas and the urban centres. All attempts at improving infrastructural deficits seem concentrated at the capital of the state. Government intervention, where available, has been grossly inadequate in addressing the socio-economic challenges faced by the masses. Our administration shall, decidedly, try to close the gap between the hinterland and urban centres. Real development can only be actualized and accentuated through an active symbiosis between the two, an understanding predicated on collaboration and co-existence designed for amity and progress. Our people will be encouraged to participate in the massive reconstruction contemplated by our administration in this regard.

Any honest indigene of the state must be disturbed by the crisis in the educational sector at present. The philosophy of education, conceived on the idea of functionality for improved living by our forbears, has been reduced to a routine certification ritual, the culmination of which is the award of certificates, diplomas and degrees to graduates who are left more confused than when they enrolled in school. The unemployment crisis, apart from being a global socio-economic phenomenon, is self-inflicted.

If education is the nurturing, training and mobilization of those who live in a society to confront the challenges of development, faced, primarily, by the people in that environment, the current situation confirms that we have since departed from that well-trodden path for a very long time now.It is a big shame that a state, which was a clear leader in education in the country, now lags behind. It appears that our curricula at all levels of training have failed to produce experts whose contributions to the growth of the economy are needed. Our administration will strive to reverse this unfortunate trend by promoting functional education aimed at real development. We shall also revisit the issue of vocational training with a view to improving the skills of our artisans.

We recognize that the issue of unemployment is endemic. We equally understand that the greatest employer of labour, at a time such as this challenging period, is the private sector. The government will ensure that the environment remains peaceful and conducive for economic activities. In addition, we shall deploy considerable energy into agriculture. Through this, we hope to generate employment for the teeming youths. This administration will do everything possible to encourage investment in agriculture. Our youths must be ready for training necessary to kick-start this mission.

We must begin to deemphasize white-collar jobs. The era of unproductive civil service is winding to a close, gradually. The current economic realities make the deployment of the unemployed to other sectors, other than agriculture and rural development, unsustainable. We must train our youths to acquire entrepreneurial skills as a corollary to our programme on agriculture.

The health care delivery system currently operating in the state will be sustained and improved upon. We shall adopt a deliberate policy to ensure that our people have access to health care regardless of their social status. We intend, within the available resources, to provide qualitative primary health care delivery system to the rural populace. Health care centres in the rural areas will be accessible and functional.

Our policy on massive infrastructural development will seek to open up the hinterland through our roads and waterways. Our state has the longest coastline in the country. It is unthinkable that all economic activities are restricted to land while our waterways are abandoned. Opening up the hinterland will reduce, drastically, the perennial rural-urban drift and encourage our sons and daughters who live outside the state to consider returning home to contribute their own quota. The economic propensities of such a venture will be, unimaginably, exponential.

We are all witnesses to the negative impact that our local economy has been subjected to as a result of over-reliance on federally allocated funds for even the most basic recurrent expenditure items. It is high time that we looked inwards and come up with a solution that ensures we are sustainable and viable as a collective entity.
We shall develop a comprehensive Development Plan that focuses on leveraging our collective resources and areas of comparative advantage for the benefit of our people. The plan will detail our philosophy and response to surviving in this harsh economic climate. In addition to this, it will also take a medium term view to our economic development on an overall basis, and more importantly ensure that we remain consistently above board during economic booms and bursts.
We will adopt a collaborative approach to get this done by ensuring that we engage with the other segments of the public sector, as well as the private sector in developing and implementing our ideas of transforming the economy of our great State within the shortest possible period.

All these lofty aspirations will remain a mirage if those saddled with the responsibility of implementing the decisions of the government do not support with dedication, honesty and patriotism.

I acknowledge the very important role that the Civil Service has played, and continues to play in the development of our beloved State. I understand the challenges, and these are quite apparent to those within and outside the system. We will work towards addressing these challenges in delivering on our mandate to our people. We particularly seek the support and cooperation of the Civil Service and all organs of labour. We will drive efficiency through capacity building and training needs assessment targeted at retooling our civil servants. Be rest assured that your welfare, training, capacity building and the overall interests of our people will be one of the highest pillars of our mandate.

We acknowledge the constraints that our current financial situation will place on our ability to deliver on our mandate. We however, believe that an adequate focus on transforming the current socio-economic status of our State will lead to substantial internally generated revenue for our State. We believe that Ondo State has the required resources – human and material to ensure our sustainability in the short, medium and long term.

We are looking at building on our existing relationships with local and international development partners. Many of them have been there for us in the time past, and we reach out to them, especially at the new dawn in the administration of our State.I am therefore using this opportunity to reach out to businesses, manufacturers, private investors as well as potential international partners. You are welcome to Ondo State. We commit to partner with you in developing the economic potentials of our State for the benefit of all our stakeholders.

The collective deployment of our resources, combined with those of our neighboring and sister States cannot be over-emphasized. Our administration believes that we can achieve a lot more if we work with a number of our sister State Governments to ensure that certain development efforts (infrastructure or otherwise) are channeled in such a way as to deliver maximum benefits for the participating States. We believe we don’t have to build or develop everything ourselves. There is a lot we can gain if we harmonise efforts and resources to build enduring assets that can cater for the needs of every one of us.

Security of lives and property shall be guaranteed. Our administration will protect all and sundry. We will act in the interest of everyone. We will be there for all. All those who will add value to governance in the state shall be engaged. We believe that the inputs and participation of every stakeholder is required for us to succeed and deliver our mandate. We will provide numerous avenues for direct engagement with our people. Whether you are civil servants, market women, students, vulnerable groups, artisans, professionals, we will have specific means of reaching out to you to feel your pulse, and more importantly to seek inputs into programs and policies that will directly impact your lives.

Ladies and gentlemen, it is indeed a brand new day! With the assistance of the Almighty God and the good people of Ondo State, we hope to take the state out of the morass of privation, hopelessness and desperation. The welfare of our people shall be the fundamental objective and directive principle of governance in Ondo State.

Your Excellencies, My lords, ladies and gentlemen and my good people of Ondo state, the hour is here and our Journey to Redemptioncommences now. And to God Almighty, the creator of heaven and earth, the author and finisher of all things perfect and excellent I say:

“Forth in thy name oh Lord I go,
my daily labour to pursue,
thee only thee resolved to know,
in all I think or speak or do.

The task thy wisdom has assigned
o’ let me cheerfully fulfil
in all my works thy presence find
and prove thy acceptable will”.

Long live Ondo State,
Long Federal Republic of Nigeria.
I thank you very much for listening. God bless.

TV/MoviesBig Brother Naija Pornography: Nigerians Are All Hypocrites - Gochu Enwereji by uche87(op): 11:41am On Feb 15, 2017
The alleged promotion of immorality and n*dity by the ongoing Big Brother Nigeria reality show has attracted the responses of Nigerians in the media and entertainment industry.

With just 24hrs after the scathing piece of Tori News correspondent - Osayimwen Osahon George on the questionable operations of the popular television reality show, BB Naija, the Operations Manager at WE TV, Wazobia TV, Gochu Enwereji has dropped his intellectual and cogent view on the flagrant display of amoral acts by contestants jostling for a N25 million cash prize within a period of 90 days in confinement.

The Tori News correspondent in his piece titled "Refined Pornography: The Shame of Watching Big Brother Naija" accused MultiChoice Nigeria of corrupting the young and innocent minds in the society by apparently permitting acts of indiscriminate romance, drinking and vulgar talks by contestants during the reality show.

Mr Enwereji in his Facebook post has further taken a jab at Nigerians as a whole with a statistical report of viewership of the BB Naija as against an educative school competition that has been neglected by the public for seeming ephemeral acts of romance on the contentious reality show.

He described Nigerians as "hypocrites" who have acted without due representation of the teachings of their religions be it Islam or Christianity.

Read his interesting post below:

"Mathematics competition - 2000 viewers mostly from institutions competing and their families.

Big Brother Nigeria - 4,000,000 viewers, internet is agog, SMSes are bombarded via telcos, discussion forums are unlimited ...

Moral of Story - we are hypocrites !!!...

How come all the millions of churches and mosques with their celebrity pastors/Imams and their prosperity seeking followers don't preach against such immoral and unproductive tendencies or as long as you pay your tithe and offerings, your sins are forgiven and you can go on sinning?!!!...

Who are those that watch and promote these 'ideals' ?!!! They don't attend churches or mosques or they are all pagans?!!!...

My take - just like our Politricktians, these religious rulers don't care about us or the salivation of our souls, they are plain business men ...

Watch what you sow, Nigerians ?!!! We would definitely reap it ...

#LTBN - Operation #LetsTakeBackNigeria - Yes I Can (Yes I Can Act Now) - the change begins when you and I start acting the change ... Action they say speaks loudest ... God bless Nigeria and Nigerians"

Nairaland GeneralMeet The Homeless 15-year-old Ibadanboy Legally 'hustling' In Lagos For Survival by uche87(op): 4:19pm On Feb 14, 2017
Jude Okwudili, a Lagos-based photographer and videographer in the course of his business activities in the commercial capital of Nigeria was touched by the legal survival skills of a homeless teenage boy struggling to make ends meet amid scarce economic resources.

Pelumo is one of the millions of homeless kids in Nigeria with a bleak future following his humble and broken family background. The energetic small man left the largest city in West Africa, Ibadan, for greener pastures in Lagos.

He is currently working on the Victoria Island axis of Lagos as a Squeegee boy also known as windscreen cleaner from where he fends for himself with the meagre funds he makes. The vulnerable kid passes the night unsafely on the street.

Vibrant photographer, Jude Okwudili recently spotted him and shared a brief information about Pelumo (possibly Pelumi - a South-western name from the Yoruba tribe) after a parley with him.

Pelumo hopes to become a lawyer but his big dreams seem to be diminishing by the day as he lacks the financial strength to put himself through school. There are fears that crime might be introduced to the vulnerable boy by unscrupulous people corrupting innocent minds like him for their personal gains.

Read his Instagram post below:

"Meet Pelumo, 15yrs old boy from Ibadan whose room is the police signpost just by shoprite road at four point VI. According to him, his Dad and Mum are separated and he has had to fend for himself.

He makes a living wiping windscreens and hoping someone throws any denomination his side. He dreams of being a lawyer, a dream that might still come to pass. I believe in miracles and the positive power of social media. @lenixtv and I has his story recorded and hopefully someone, somehow will hear it. Until then, we go still dey do the small wey we fit."

TV/MoviesRefined Pornography: The Shame Of Watching Big Brother Naija by uche87(op): 9:49am On Feb 14, 2017
"I logged on to Instagram on a Sabbath Day to connect with an old friend only to see Nigerians on the social network in raptures over a video clip of a shambolic 'Truth or Dare' game that prompted one (now evicted) Big Brother Naija housemate, Coco Ice to offer her nipple live on television for sucking by her male counterpart while the other housemates applauded as she exhibited a dance of shame in excitement.

The ferocious sucking by the male housemate showed the possibility of him being weaned ahead of time by his mother during his suckling days as a toddler.

Then I asked myself some rhetorical questions; how did we get here as Nigerians? Is this lascivicious act part of our culture, values, heritage or historical background? Keeping quiet out of diplomacy is a disservice to the society.

For posterity sake, let it be on record that I, Osayimwen Osahon George used my medium as a writer to re-orientate and re-direct Nigerians whose identities and sanity of minds have been threatened covertly by the capitalist innovations of the men that be".


When the Big Brother Africa reality game show debuted on the television screens under the platform of M-Net and Africa Magic Entertainment on the 25th of May, 2003; the imported Eurocentric initiative was re-branded to suit local realities by ambitious capitalists who were only interested in their private interests and not societal development.

The idea of bringing 12 African contestants of different nationalities under one roof was premised on the need to promote the African culture and heritage as well as encourage peaceful coexistence amongst the participants of different backgrounds and orientations who were watched by millions of people from 42 countries all over Africa. It was staged as an avenue for different individuals to showcase their unique skills and talents to the outside world.

The prize of some thousands of dollars was attractive enough to secure several applicants for the T.V show which was given rapt attention by the general public. But the paramount question is this; how well has this intercontinental programme promoted 'Africanism'?

The Big Brother Africa reality show has posed to be one of the ills of globalization with ideals that don't conform with the African life introduced to the people. This is similar to the apparent celebration of nudity by women folks under the guise of modern day fashion trends leaving their boobs, bum, hips, tummies and other sensitive body parts bared publicly just to make bold statements at social gatherings and work places.

For holistic effect, it should be noted that it was imperative to analyse the BBA first before touching the Big Brother Nigeria which is an offshoot of the former. One of the initial failings of the BBA was the outrageous amount of money charged on text messages from the audience that horizontally strolled at the base of the TV screen and also for voting. This happened in tandem with the pornographic Shower Hour.

There was a viral tentative 2013 report that the BBA raked up to N7 billion approximately from ‘The Chase’ edition after investing N375 million. Massive turnover was made from SMS charges courtesy of emotional fans.

Initially, a single SMS to the show cost an inexplicable sum of N100 as against the normal cheaper rates as at then. The programme enjoyed tons of text messages from millions of viewers who wanted to support their country representatives.

The anticipated Shower Hour captured the private moments of contestants in the bathroom. BBA through a VIP section created an online platform that was highly monetized to showcase the bathroom moments of housemates for public pleasure.

There were disturbing reports of under-aged children sneaking out of bed to enjoy the sight of the unclothedness of the adult participants. In fact, some of the participants bared it all to win the hearts of viewers and bathing was seductively done like a strip show. The cumulative effect of this was an increase in sexual relationships among kids, addiction to porn, masturbation, sexual abuses, incessant erections and wet dreams as well as high patronage of brothels among minors.

Since the nature of in-house discussions for the period of three months was unregulated, participants refrained from all educative and constructive issues to focus on common societal vices like sex, smoking, drinking, betrayal and semi-nudity etc. BBA purposely made the romantic scenes the highlights of the day to boost the curiosity of viewers and sustain their viewership.

After 10 years of dormancy, the Big Brother Nigeria which organised its maiden indigenous TV show in 2006 returned in 2017 leveraging on the progress of the BBA according to the Managing Director of MultiChoice Nigeria, John Ugbe and the show was tagged 'Big Brother Naija'.

It adopted the modalities of the BBA excluding the Shower Hour. The winner of the 11-week contest of 78 days will be given N25 million cash prize and a brand new Kia Sorento SUV car. The show sponsored by e-commerce company - Payporte started off on the wrong foot by de-marketing Nigeria on the continental business scene.

The organizers flagrantly moved their base to South Africa as they produced majorly for a Nigerian audience on the heels of a recessive local economy where the Federal Government is working laboriously to restore the confidence of investors in the corruption-ridden and infrastructural facilities-starved country.

High production, meeting timelines and usage of a fully equipped house were asserted as reasons for such an image-tarnishing move according to one Caroline Oghuma who issued a public statement for MultiChoice after the Nigerian Minister of Information and Culture – Lai Mohammed ordered a probe of the action.

Whatever the smoke-screen reasons given for public consumption, the cryptic message was clear that Nigeria in this 21st century and almost 57th year of existence amidst abundance of human and material resources lacks the adequate infrastructural facilities to produce a common 24-hour TV show not to talk of enabling business growth.

Since the night of the 22nd of January, 2017 when the Big Brother Nigeria kicked off amidst hysteria from a large section of Nigerian youths, the seeming 'adult show' has taken the place of 'soft porn' in the hearts of people.

The level of moral decadence flaunted by participants in the course of daily tasks and organised games has proven to be unrepresentative of the fundamental principles of the BBA itself. In fact, the spate of immorality have been assumed to be a subtle and viable replacement of the infamous Shower Hour for the purpose of gaining popularity amongst Nigerians and other Africans since sex sells the entertainment industry nowadays.

One might be forced to ask if this was the brightest idea of ways MultiChoice Nigeria intended to "enhance the quality and variety of content available on its platform'' as quoted from the Vanguard Newspaper. Is this the way the leadership of MultiChoice intends to unearth Nigerian talents like he they did with On-Air-Personality Ebuka Obi-Uchendu? Are they recruiting for the developing soft porn industry in Nigeria which a former Nollywood actress, Judith Mazagwu self-styled Afrocandy and singer Caroline 'Maheeda' Sam have tried building in futility.

The 'Truth or Dare’ game played by housemates has ended up being horrendous. The kissing, smooching, humping, fingering, sucking and other vulgar scenes have become so provocative, uninspiring and loathsome to matured minds.

In this age of unrestricted blogging and social media resurgence, the questionable incidents on Big Brother Naija are currently flooding popular sites to serve as click baits to drive traffic.

They are being sponsored by sites and put in the face of innocent and uninterested people using social media platforms religiously.

Big Brother Naija has in its own way dignified promiscuity and distrust in the society owing to the way housemates romantically shuttle among themselves without caution or iota of mortification. Yes, it’s a game, it might seem like a painless game to viewers but it puts the state of the mind at risk and that's the easiest way to destroy a human being.

The house schedule is very simple and easily predictable. If Gifty isn't flirting with Bally, she is with Kemen or probably flirting with both simultaneously. The next one could be Bisola narrating an erotic experience with her breasts used in demonstrating while a card game is being played at the background by other housemates. Debbie Rise might be on the next scene showing us the flexibility of her waist in a seductive dance around obviously Hot young men. She could even join Gifty in twerking. Bisola and Kemen could be engaged in a kissing contest or Igwe Efe could be made her partner for presumed rotational effect.

The following highlight could be the same Bisola in another sensational French-kissing contest or she sucking the finger of Bassey to illustrate her MouthAction prowess. Uriel’s boobs could make the next scene as they are carelessly cupped in her hands during a heated argument. What about the lonely nights when Gifty shamelessly switched from the beds of the evicted Soma to that of Bally? What struck your minds when Bally did a brief dance performance for Bisola in the pool with both parties scantily clad? The Unnecessary cuddling scenes of Tboss and Miyonse before his eviction cannot be left out of the picture of flagrant immorality.

What about the infamous Bally and Coco Ice kissing contest? Soma sucking Gifty's nipples for 10 seconds, Bisola's recent intense romance with Thin Tall during which they kissed and closely caressed each other not to talk of her tongue-licking act performed on him. Coco Ice even dared Debbie to strip naked which Coco did to lighten up the mood of the house. The transmission and enforcement of corrupt ideas goes on and on unrestrained.

It will stun my readers that the lose Gifty who hails from Anambra State – South-eastern part of Nigeria is happily married to a Nollywood movie director, David Sorochukwu Akumah but the light-skinned lady has openly dishonoured her marital union in her quest for the BB Naija prize.

Without being economical with the truth, there is nothing educative about the show except if the aims and objectives have been redefined to suit the current pornographic taste.

N25 million is a whole lot of fortune to be made shortly by one person alongside the beneficial fame and other perks associated with the reality show but we shouldn't enslave ourselves because of the size of the funds. We should be more concerned about protecting the innocent and fragile minds of the young and also preparing them to grab the mantle of leadership tomorrow.

What does a child stand to learn from a Miyonse who abandoned his serious relationship to strike an illicit romance with another lady in the house – Tboss? He spent silent nights attempting to invade her 'honeypot' under the dark only to return to kissing his lover on his exit which was facilitated by his romance partner. Everybody purposely lives under the illusion that it is all a game not minding the fact that impressions of betrayal and promiscuity are being made in the hearts of people.

The human mind is a blank slate, and the society imprints on it according to the legendary English philosopher and physician, John Locke using the Blank Slate theory as a framework of analysis.

He posited validly that human minds start off empty, as blank slates, and are filled in by personal experiences. According to Locke, thoughts begin by absorbing sensation and become more complex through reflection on what is sensed.

It burns my heart that multinational brands like Legend Extra Stout and others that have failed in their social responsibilities towards Nigerian citizens are queuing behind the evicted housemates to lobby them with possible endorsements due to the media focus on them.
This is the kind of support that makes the Christian folks beg and pray for the change of the scheduled Armageddon to an earlier date to avoid colossal losses among the few souls won for Jesus Christ.

If indeed these companies endorsing the acts want to give back to the society, they could always sponsor educative competitions like the Cowbell Mathematics competition for Secondary School students, the Peak Milk Essay Competition and others to encourage formal education and discover the diamonds in the dirt. The African Independent Television, AIT constantly showcases unfortunate Nigerians with life-threatening ailments needing funds for medical attention. We urge these companies to set a good example in history by wading into such critical issues as part of their social responsibilities instead of using their profits to legalize embarrassing frivolities.

The National Broadcasting Commission in the face of an erring and provocative Big Brother Naija has proven to be another government agency established to squander the state's scarce resources. The NBC which in the past engaged in public facade operations of banning harmless Nigerian songs and musical videos for the purpose of deceiving the general public about its efficiency has again proven to be sicker than the President as it woefully fails to curtail the questionable operations of the Big Brother Naija.

PoliticsWhy You Might Doubt Buhari's London Pictures...see New Evidence by uche87(op): 3:42pm On Feb 10, 2017
A section of Nigerians have welcomed the latest pictures of President Buhari in London with disbelief as they point out loopholes in the purported hoax.

Since the Presidency released pictures of All Progressives Congress chieftains, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Chief Bisi Akande paying an august visit to President Muhammadu Buhari at the Abuja House in London, cynics have raised eyebrows about the authenticity of the pictures.

One social media user, Thompson Idagu Yeche has made a case against the originality of the pictures via his Facebook page. The netizen questioned why President Buhari with his highly esteemed and privileged status will be wearing one single brown Jalabia at every major visit paid to him in London where he is currently recuperating.

A vivid study of Buhari's wardrobe and physical appearances reveals the Nigerian leader of Fulani descent isn't known to evidently repeat clothes as shown during his controversial vacation in Europe.

"I wonder why someone would intentionally choose to wear the same outfit since he traveled to London".

"Is someone telling me now that our president went to London with one cloth?"

"Na kwesion (question) I dey ask so no carry your hatred come my wall."
he asked.

From the collage of pictures, a frail-looking Buhari wore his seeming favourite brown Jalabia with the same white cap while attending to the executive governor of Ogun State, Ibikunle Amosun, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and then yesterday while meeting with a former governor of Lagos - Bola Tinubu and his closest ally, Bisi Akande.

These claims popularly shared among Nigerians is coming on the heels of rumours that the President could have either passed away in the United Kingdom or is currently in a vegetative state concealed from Nigerians by an influential cabal.

Meanwhile, the wild rumours might vanish into the thin air like smoke if Buhari returns to Nigeria tomorrow, Saturday according to a Presidency source.

PoliticsOpen Letter: Our President Who Art In London, Buhari Be Thy Name by uche87(op): 2:37pm On Feb 07, 2017
Dear President Muhammadu Buhari,

I hope your recuperation is on course as reported by your special adviser on media and publicity - Femi Adesina? I also hope the United Kingdom weather is not too harsh on your skin sir?

Despite the suspicious reports from your media team about a normal 10-day vacation turning to an indefinite sick leave, some of us are still praying for you for the love and solidarity to our ailing country, Nigeria.

There have been conflicting press statements about your state of health. Some ridiculous people claim you are already dead and that you have been summarily buried in London according to Islamic rites. Some 'gods of men' who predicted your death in their Churches have been jeering up for the dreaded outcome to cement their credibility at the expense of our beloved country. I was flabbergasted recently when a social media user alleged you were supposed to undergo a critical brain transplant which failed. In uneasy hilarity, the netizen claimed your brains were supposed to be swapped with that of a brilliant white man to help us overcome the menace of economic recession already driving towards national depression.

SaharaReporters, your supposed old friend even alleged you could be in London for about 4 months due to a proposed major surgical operation to solve a myriad of health challenges confronting you.

All these mean rumours and malicious reports shouldn't astound you sir, some brains of the common men can't function to optimum level due to lack of balanced diet. We are not eating to grow or enjoy ourselves like we did under the administration of former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan; under you we are eating simply to survive until 2019 when we can do the needful democratically.

As a political scientist sir, I envisage that the 'silent voters' that saw off the U.S Democratic Party presidential candidate in the last election, Hillary Clinton in your own case might come from the northern region which is your stronghold. The concept of political behaviour has overtime proven to be unforeseeable and you could be the victim due to the current economic vulnerability of the people.

The country has remained divided into two major groups of people. The expectant masses that have been chained in their quest for your 'change' under the All Progressives Congress-led administration makes up the first group and they are ridden with a rare combo of fierce anger and hunger.

The second group of people are the privileged few with links to the current players of the APC power formation. They are perceived to have a huge financial base that cushions the effect of the current economic recession. They are presently eating at the political dining table and will likely not talk in strict observance of table manners.

The first group is a very bitter and vicious team crippled with the rising cost of living in Nigeria. The members are more affected with the gap between the naira and the dollar at the parallel market. Some of them have recorded colossal financial losses in the contentious Russian Ponzi Scheme - Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox, MMM partially due to the failings of this current government.

This group of people have no electricity in their homes despite paying inflated power bills courtesy of your Minister of Darkness, sorry I mean Power, Works and Housing, Babatunde Raji Fashola. They lack potable water, access to soft loans to start businesses and they have committed the security of their lives and properties in the hands of the hosts of heaven.
Some of them have lost their jobs with several hungry mouths to feed. Some of the workers in this star-crossed group are yet to be paid salaries for months by their state governments as well as mushroom private companies. Others have had their salaries slashed due to the economic squeeze while a few of those who retained their usual salaries have become born again Christians after being incapacitated by the current inflationary trend.

Some of us are of the opinion that your medical leave was an intelligent measure devised by you to escape the series of eardrum-piercing news plaguing Nigeria from all the six geopolitical zones. It has been alleged that you needed to pass time in a country that is closer to God geographically.

Innocent 'Tuface' Idibia bewildered Nigerians when he backed out of the national protest he convened with advocacy group, Enough is Enough. The peaceful protest was scheduled to agitate for good governance and a better deal for the masses from an administration that was railroaded to power on bombastic political statements.

Reports have it that Tuface kowtowed to intense pressure from security operatives who threatened the legendary musician with cooked up reports that the protest was going to be hijacked by outlaws. Tuface wanted to achieve a heroic deed on a platter of gold without sacrifices.
The last thing the Benue native wanted was to be fed with Egusi soup and Garri behind bars like other activists have suffered.

As Tuface ran under the long wrapper of his wife - Annie Macauley Idibia; comedian Seyi Law, former PMAN president - Charles 'Charly Boy' Oputa, Nollywood actress - Mercy Aigbe Gentry, Sahara Reporters publisher - Omoyele Sowore and other prominent Nigerians stepped in to inspire the protest amidst threats by security operatives.

Gallant Nigerian youths poured out for the peaceful procession which took place majorly in Abuja, Lagos State and then on a residual note, in Ibadan and Akwa Ibom according to available pictorial evidences. The northern part of the country as well as the South-east dumbfoundedly sat on the fence yesterday despite poverty being rife in the former. The signs of blind loyalty, religion and ethnicity could be perceived but the question is; for how long?

Dear President, the protesters risked being shot and killed like the supporters of the Independent People of Biafra, IPOB to make a bold statement against you. This is a dent on your popularity. It’s a watershed on a brewing public revolt to end your reign just like former President Jonathan's political annihilation was hatched at the Gani Fawehinmi freedom park, Ojota - Lagos during the massive protest against the removal of fuel subsidy in January, 2012.
This is a family war involving a father and his children. Any successful attack spells self-destruction and it’s a close shave for both parties with high-costs of victory.

Dear Sir, the #IStandWithBuhari protest organised by the the Pro-Buhari activists as a counter response to the anti-government group - #IStandWithNigeria purposely at the same Unity Park venue in Abuja was a dance of shame. Investigations revealed that the pro-Buhari crowd was bought with a paltry sum of N1,000 by one faceless ‘mobilizer’. Two of the participating ladies admitted their ignorance about the burden of the protest as they begged for a pitiable sum of N100 to buy water under the scorching sun. This is unrepresentative of the true values and public faith that put you on the pedestal you are today. On social media, anybody standing with you is regarded as a 'Yaba Left' candidate (psychiatric patient). I have to truthfully admit I have covered my face in shame and ashes a thousand times for rooting for you sir.

One of your major supporters, Omoyele Sowore at the national stadium - Surulere, Lagos yesterday advocated for a political revolution to cleanse Nigeria and the listening crowd gave him a nod to signify their loss of faith in you sir.
As I viewed several protest pictures on the internet, I noticed the anti-government protesters might have lagged behind in numbers due to government intimidation and undue meddlesomeness, but their voices were louder in unison without a megaphone.
Their high spirits in the mood of activism assisted me in picturing the day of Pentecost in the Holy Bible when the disciples were unfathomably yoked with the Holy Ghost which attracted all and sundry to their abode. (Acts Chapter 2 vr 1-12).

I was totally moved when I saw a physically-challenged man rolling out his wheelchair with a placard in his hand reading; "What happened to the naira". This is the same local currency you promised to equate with the dollar during the 2015 election campaign period. It appears you might have meant otherwise sir as the naira exchanged for a dollar at the rate of N503 to N506 yesterday, 6th of February, 2017.

Your present long distance relationship with Nigeria that has complicated our road to ruination seems dead on arrival as the youths and other stakeholders now call for your resignation. There are reports that your administration has been successfully hijacked by a cabal without the interests of the people at heart.

Nigeria is now being ruled at a critical time by international phone calls from a sick president presumably on a sick bed. How did we get here and where are we going to? And how can we get out?

As the unfair hands of sickness make our strong Buhari so frail and hideous like the saga surrounding the death of former President Shehu Musa Yar'dua in 2010, Nigerians have lost hope and patience to look forward to 2019 peacefully. Damages are being done to the psyche of Nigerians everyday due to grave economic challenges confronting your administration.

While you are away sir, Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State publicly revealed a supposed 'divine unction' to be the future president of Nigeria. True lovers of Nigeria have seized the opportunity of lack of money and food to join the ongoing Redeemed Christian Church of God's 40-day fasting and prayer to deter the verbose People's Democratic Party chieftain in the spiritual realm.
The years of the locust, our afflictions, journey through the wilderness and the PDP years shall not rise again!

Dear Buhari, our camp of supporters has been divided like a piece of meat shared among siblings after a meal as done in a typical impoverished African home.

I love you sir but I seem not to know where I stand anymore. Other supporters seem more confused than me. There are indications that former Vice President Atiku Abubakar might be heralded as our new messiah in 2019 to retire you. I fear for the doomed fate of the national treasury sir. I have a strong premonition that 'she' could be raped to death with Hot political jobbers taking turns on her.
The streets are in disarray as hunger and despair have left us speaking Chinese despite not leaving the shores of this country for once in our lives.

A social media user and ridiculous political strategist suggested that this country should be finally sold and the proceeds shared among Nigerian citizens so that all parties can move on and forget about the country. I died 6 times when I read that suggestion sir as it measures the degree of hopelessness in this administration.

I will drop my pen here sir as I have strained my eyes writing you this letter in darkness, intense heat with some mosquito musicians feasting on my blood like they are marking an annual insect festival.

I pray you don't ignore my letter to focus on cartoons as your assistant media aide, Garba Shehu once alleged you are engrossed with.
On a lighter note, I personally miss you sir. May the almighty God protect you and grant you a quick recovery sir.

With love from Osayimwen Osahon George,
Festac Town, Lagos State.

PoliticsThree Powerful Prophets Who Predicted That Buhari Will Die by uche87(op): 3:51pm On Feb 06, 2017
Will the prophecies of some powerful men of God who predicted the death of President Muhammadu Buhari come true? We revisit some of the prophecies by the men of God.

Considering the manner in which the health status of President Muhammadu Buhari is shrouded in mystery, some people have began to think that the prophecies by some powerful men of God who predicted his death, might actually come true afterall.

Before the year began, some notable men of God like Ghanaian prophet, Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of the Glorious Word Ministry International; Prophet Emmanuel Chukwudi of King of Kings Deliverance Church and lastly, the Spiritual leader of the Celestial Church of Christ, Elisha Parish, Marcus Korede Tibetan all predicted the death of President Muhammadu Buhari.

But, these prophecies were taken by many with a pinch of salt.

Howbeit, as questions over the health of Buhari lingers, some Nigerians have revisited the prophecies by these men of God to see whether there might be an iota of truth in them, and if the prophecies are coming to pass.

Buhari is currently in London on medical leave. He was supposed to come back yesterday (Sunday) but had to postpone it indefinitely due to his health.

Here are the powerful men of God who predicted the death of Buhari:

1. [/b]Ghanaian prophet, Isaac Owusu Bempah, founder and leader of the Glorious Word Ministry International was the first to make the shocking revelation in his new year prophecies for 2017.

The controversial man of God, during the December 31st crossover service said that Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari will die. He also predicted the deaths of a former president, a former first lady as well as a ‘great king’ in Ghana. He predicted a terrorist attack in the country, a coup d’etat as well as more clashes between Christians and Muslims in the country.

Here are the 17 prophecies of prophet Isaac Owusu Bempah for 2017 below:

– Death of a former president

– Death of a former first lady

– Coup d’etat in Ghana

– Death of Nigeria’s president

– Terrorist attack in Ghana

– Death of several young men and women

– Important personalities in parliament will die

– Many people will be kidnapped

– Innocent blood will be shed in a particular political party

– Increase in occult practices

– Americans will go for war

– More Muslim/Christian clashes this year

– A great king will die

– Another plane crash in Ghana

– Fire outbreaks in important offices in Ghana

– More celebrities (Actors,musicians and media practitioners) in Ghana to die S

– NDC to stay in opposition for 16 years.

[b]2. [/b]Prophet Emmanuel Chukwudi of King of Kings Deliverance Church also predicted that that the health of President Muhammadu Buhari will fail him, leading to his death. Eb­onyi state-born prophet also predicted the release of Nnamdi Kanu, detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.

“Tell pro-Biafrans to stop shedding tears. Their lead­er Nnamdi Kanu shall not remain in prison custody for too long again. He is already on his way out. As for their (pro-Biafrans) agitations for Biafra, the Lord says it is already in the horizon. Their day shall come soon”.

“The Lord is also speaking about Nigeria. Nigeria will come out of its current recession before the end of 2019. Oil price will stabilise and hardship shall disap­pear.

“But towards 2019, the presi­dent’s health shall fail him, and he shall go the way of all men. But VP Yemi Osinbajo shall wrestle with the soldiers. They shall try to seize power and Osinbajo shall prevail. He shall lead Nigeria into 2019.” the man of God revealed.

3. Marcus Korede Tibetan, the Spiritual leader of the Celestial Church of Christ, Elisha Parish, had in January of 2015 predicted the death of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Prophet Tibetan known for some of his controversial statements, told Encomium Weekly that incumbent President , Goodluck Jonathan will be disgraced in the 2015 election, which came true.

He also told the magazine that the then All Progressives Congress' presidential candidate, Muhammadu Buhari, would win the election, but with adverse consequences. The Prophet also warned that there might be consequences if Gen. Buhari assumes office by May 2015, stating that the APC

Presidential candidate may die during the four-year tenure.

"Politics started in the Bible. In Genesis 25 from verse 22, the woman said ‘If this is how pregnancy normally disturbs people, I think after this, I don’t think I am going to have a baby again’ and the Holy Spirit ministered to Rebecca, He said, Rebecca, why don’t you give peace a chance? Two nations are in your womb but the young one will be champion. The first one will be a workaholic. He may not make his way from the beginning but later he will be recognized. And when they came, it was Jacob and Esau the first twins in history and when their mother was trying to play the trick, that was the beginning of politics. People say ‘politics, politics, politics, do you know the beginning of politics? Rebecca said, now that your father is planning to die and bless Esau the first son of the house, you know I have a message from the Holy Spirit and now I want to actualize it.

"Go and get one of the choice kids of the goat flock and I will make savory food with them for your father, such as he loves and I will put the skin of the choice goat on your hand so that when your father touches you he will take you for Esau. But the father said ‘This is the voice of Jacob but the hand of Esau’. They are going to rig the elections; there is no good election coming in 2015. Goodluck has already failed, he knows but his word will hunt him. He said he will never go more than once so, why is he reneging? We saw that in him the very first day they opened Aso-Rock and he saw what they used to decorate Aso Rock, he pulled his hat and screamed. He has already disappointed and derailed us; we could have even told him we don’t need him again.

"Buhari is not coming to look for the house he wants to live in, Buhari is only coming back as a concerned Nigerian. He will win the election; he may not even finish his term. He may die….he is going to die in between. That is what the Lord has revealed but it is good for a fighter to show his skill. Buhari has never changed his colour, there is no amount of frustration you give Buhari that will change him," Marcus Korede Tibetan said.

CelebritiesNationwide Protest: Nigerians Open 2face Idibia's Stinking 'book Of Sins' by uche87(op): 6:27pm On Jan 31, 2017
Events seem to have turned out awry for Nigerian prolific singer, Innocent Idibia as he mixes political activism with music in his clamour for a nationwide political protest that has been welcomed with mixed reactions in Nigeria.

When Benue native, Innocent Idibia self-styled 2face declared a nationwide protest on the 26th of January, 2017 in reaction to the ailing economic of Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari, the move gained tremendous support on social media.

Davido, Olamide, Burna Boy, Comedian I Go Dye, Daddy Showkey, Charly Boy Oputa and other prominent entertainers supported 2face and their followers on social media were in high spirits about protesting against the administration of 'change' of the All Progressives Congress which has lost its popularity majorly as a result of the consequences of a recessive economy.

As other entertainers maintain silence about the activism planned by the 'African Queen' crooner, two Nigerian lecturers namely Professor Akindele Adetoye and one Dr. Bunmi Awoyemi Divinewealth respectively whitewashed 2face and attributed his problem to lack of proper formal education.

The former described 2face as a randy man who has failed to govern his personal life after indiscriminately sleeping with women unprotected and impregnating several others. The latter orientated 2face about the efforts of Buhari in offering bail out funds to the state governors as well as advocate for the clearance of the backlog of salaries through the Paris Club refund money to ease the sufferings of state civil servants.

2face, 41, officially has 7 children from three different women all except the last female child outside wedlock before he settled with his long-time girlfriend, Annie Macauley Idibia. Some fundamentalists and puritans on social media are of the opinion that the singer lacks the moral stand and reputation to lead a protest against a leader 'working' assiduously to fix the rot purportedly left behind by the 16 years of misrule by the People's Democratic Party, PDP.

As Dr Bunmi Awoyemi Divine also alleged with some supporters of Buhari, 2face benefited from some chieftains of the PDP who have their hands tainted with corruption cases.

When 2face got married to Annie in 2013, he enjoyed some controversial and ostentatious gifts from the former Governor of Akwa Ibom, Godswill Akpabio as well as a former Senate President David Mark which the latter denied in the face of hard evidence.

Mr. Akpabio announced a gift of two brand new Toyota Prado SUVs to 2face and his wife. He also reportedly promised to bankroll an all-expense paid trip for 29 delegates from the state to attend the white wedding of the couple fixed for Dubai, the United Arab Emirates on March 23, 2016.

Besides, he also hosted a lavish state dinner in honour of the couple and promised to rehabilitate the Eket-Ibeno Road ahead of the child dedication of 2face and Annie.

Akpabio is currently being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over an alleged mind-boggling fraud of N108 billion which was reportedly committed during his two terms - 2007 to 2015 as the First Man of the South South State.

2face was also purportedly gifted an outrageous and questionable gift of a N47million car on his wedding day with other unnamed perks that led to an outrage which forced the Benue politician to deny gifting him the brand new 2013 Chevy Corvette sports car despite his name being crested on it.

Meanwhile, David Mark's profile just like many public officer holders in Nigeria has come under questioning. According to New York-based news platform - Sahara Reporters, David Mark was a core member of the “Babangida Boys” club within the Nigerian military hierarchy under military dictatorship directed by the evil genius, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida between 1985-1993 during which he allegedly made a fortune stealing public funds.

According to Premium Times, he also has links to at least eight offshore shell companies while holding public office. This act is in violation of a federal code of conduct law, a massive leak of files belonging to Mossack Fonseca, a law firm in Panama exposed in April, 2016.

Since government is a continuum, political analysts have questioned why Tuface who benefited from Nigeria's days in the 'wilderness' will have the impetus and audacity to organize a national protest bearing in mind that the economic quagmire of Nigeria was orchestrated by the previous administration.

Economists even predicted the current economic recession since the year 2014 as oil prices at the international market suffered a free fall under former President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. This according to them betrays the golden saying that "he who comes into equity must come with clean hands"

As a final nail to the coffin of 2face, a member of his defunct music group, Plantashun Boiz in the person of Blackface questioned the sincerity of 2face whom he accused of stealing the hit song of the group, African Queen which was released illegally under Kennis Music record label from where he raked massive cash.

He accused 2face of failing to identify with the people of Benue State in the face of their travails in the hands of Fulani herdsmen with limited and unsatisfactory government intervention. He supported the view that Tuface is an illiterate who lacks representation in his Local Government Area in Benue thereby betraying the principle that charity begins at home.

In a stinking interview with LIB, Blackface said:
"Let me tell you something. Does 2face Idibia have a fruitful foundation? No, Does 2face Idibia have anything that has to do with Benue State? No! Let me tell you something now. Emma Ugolee (a sick celebrity) is in the hospital. If somebody is a front runner what is he supposed to do? 2face is supposed to be able to mobilize people to figure out a way to raise money for Ugolee 's hospital's bill. If I want to do that, the radio and TV are not going to listen to me. You guys have to come out straight. I don't know what will happen after it but we don't have to do no protest. Let us get our mind straight, they should stop that and stop manipulating people's mind."

The drama seems unending as Nigerians remain divided over the national protest scheduled for 6th of February, 2017 at the national stadium, Lagos State. Tuface remains unfazed about the challenges and criticisms as he plans to actualize his plan as announced in today's public announcement on social media.

Suprisingly, no single Fulani militant have been arrested, interrogated and prosecuted. Not a single one.

RomanceNigerian Female 'banker' Secretly Acting Pornography Uncovered (see Photos) by uche87(op): 9:53am On Jan 26, 2017
A young Nigerian lady has gleefully and daringly embraced the act of p*rnography as her principal builds an empire in Nigeria just as a U.S-based Nigerian actress, Judith Mazagwu aka Afrocandy attempted in futility.

A Lagos-based 'big boy' and budding p*rnstar, Tobiloba Isaac Jolaoso, self-styled King Tee seems to have finally achieved his dreams of recruiting Nigerian ladies who can boldly show their faces on camera in his regular adult movies production.

The young man runs a local p*rnographic site with expensive subscription costs according to reports gathered. He has created an empire on Instagram and on Snapchat with n*de photos and video clips of his regular girls flocking around him in droves.

King Tee recently recruited the slim lady in the picture above nicknamed the 'Banker' adapted from a recent film she shot and she has been flaunting her face in his p*rn videos.
The lady whose real identity remains fuzzy has opened an Instagram account for herself with the handle @ladygold_ladygold with massive followership recorded in less than 48 hours of the launch.

She has recently starred in several p*rnographic works shot by King Tee and uploaded on the HOClifestyle adult site that has recorded international patronage.

The courage of 'The Banker' seems to have motivated another light-skinned and beautiful lady self-styled 'Fifikate' who has also removed her regular masks to participate in the x-rated films.

There are rumours that King Tee pays the girls as much as N100,000 and above for s*xual sessions with several other Nigerian ladies on queue to participate presumably as a survival technique in a period of scathing economic recession and high unemployment rate.

Since the Lagos State Government under the auspices of Governor Akinwunmi Ambode clamped down on Lagos socialite and nightclub owner, Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu aka Pretty Mike for placing girls on dog leash, people like King Tee might be scolded for his seeming dehumanizing and anti-social behaviours in the commercial nerve of Nigeria.

In the short video clip, the eccentric actor was seen repeated the words; "I will eat you. I will eat you, I will eat you, allow me to eat you so that you can shine" as he went down on his knees for a vantage position to suck the actress.

The seeming newcomer actress expressed discomfort about his antics and later fled the room as the clip ended. The viral video clip is expected to further put the father of one in the news as he would love to in promotion of his career.

SportsNFF Accused Of Demanding 50% Bribe From Sports Brand, Puma by uche87(op): 3:48pm On Jan 17, 2017
A British-Nigerian sports journalist - Osasu Obayiuwana - currently in Gabon to cover the 2017 African Cup of Nations has revealed the disturbing reason behind the collapse of the sports sponsorship deal between Nigeria and German sports brand, Puma in 2015.

When the developing sporting deal between the Nigeria Football Federation and the German multinational company, Puma collapsed in April, 2015 during the negotiation stage, the reason was officially attributed to the leadership instability of the football regulating body.

Recent revelations by an international journalist and native of Edo State, Osasu Obayiuwana points at the weighty allegation that corrupt practices among top officials of the NFF could have collapsed the lucrative deal.

The sensitive information was revealed to Mr. Osasu by an unnamed Puma official he met in Gabon for the 2017 AFCON competition. According to the official, Puma was willing to partner with Nigeria but the business deal failed after some helmsmen of the NFF demanded for a whooping 50% of the sporting deal as kickback as against the ethics of the company.

It would be recalled that an official of the Nigeria Football Federation had revealed that Puma rejected to sponsor Nigeria's national teams before a deal with Nike was signed.

The NFF in April, 2015 sealed a three-year-deal with sports giant Nike after their contract with Adidas expired in December, 2014.

But the NFF marketing committee chairman, Emeka Inyama had revealed that Puma rejected the chance to become the kit sponsors of the country's national teams.

“Puma turned down the chance to sponsor the Eagles and so it is the right step in the right direction that Nike came in after the Adidas contract ended,” Inyama is quoted to say by the Nation Newspaper.

“Puma’s reluctance may not be far fetched because no reputable organisation wants to partner with you when your administration is not stable. You know the crisis we went through before now, the world is a global village and these things are known world wide.”

Read the exposing tweets of Mr. Osasu as posted earlier today, 17th of January, 2016 about the scandal:

RomanceAnother 'pretty Mike' Surfaces, Sleeps With Girls Unprotected And Shares Pics by uche87(op): 2:48pm On Jan 13, 2017
The arrest of Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu, a popular socialite self-styled Pretty Mike by the Lagos State Government on the 11th of January, 2017 for leashing two girls on different public occasions has warmed the hearts of angered social media users.

A large section of Nigerian netizens had earlier been pained about the 'dog-treatment' given to financially-vulnerable female folks thereby reminding the black people of the agonies of the slave trade era.

The attention-seeking young man had earlier been parading umbrellas in public places with colours that matched his flamboyant clothes as an intended fashion trend before adopting the leashing technique presumably due to the ineffectiveness of the former.

As Governor Akinwunmi Ambode assumes the position of the 'morality police' in the financial hub of Nigeria, another despicable kind of 'Pretty Mike' seems to have surfaced as he operates in a more daring fashion.

This Lagos-based young man named Tobiloba Isaac Jolaoso self-styled King Tee operates a pornographic website that charges prospective customers heavily for access. A tour of the site, 'Hoclifestyle' by a TORI NEWS correspondent revealed he charges his Nigerian viewers about N10,000 for monthly subscription and N6,000 for two weeks with other international customers from Ghana, Malaysia, United States of America and others clandestinely following the adult platform.

King Tee sleeps with different girls in Lagos with his s*xual acts videotaped and released on social media to lure his thousands of followers to his website. A concentrated analysis of some of his s*x videos showed they were lavishly shot in different hotel rooms in Lagos.
King Tee's massive source of finance has remained enigmatic and elusive to his teeming subscribers as some suggest he could be engaged in internet scam on the side.

The native of Ogun and Oyo States sleeps with these ladies mostly upscale prostitutes without condoms and pays them handsomely according to rumours. Checks by TORI NEWS reveal King Tee veils their faces to hide their identities from the general public while he proudly shows off his own face as the pioneer of the x-rated scheme.

A quick survey of King Tee's Snapchat account revealed the debasing and dehumanizing acts he subjects his girls to at different hotels just to entice his seeming large network of subscribers.

The Malaysian returnee also sells all manners of s*x enhancing drugs on social media with a fair success of regular patronage from s*x-crazed followers.

Recent observations by a correspondent on investigation showed he is currently marketing one 'Samsu Oil' majorly used my men in boosting their s*xual prowess.

TORI NEWS also gathered that his advertisement of the strange Samsu Oil has enjoyed impressive acceptance and high commodity patronage. A customer shared a testimony of how he "shifted the womb" of his partner due to his uncanny boost of his s*x drive by the product. This is just one of hundreds of daily feedback recorded by King Tee.

The current economic recession has boosted the illicit adult business of King Tee as numerous girls are on queue to feature in his porn films for the purpose of securing remuneration to feed themselves and attend to other biting needs. King Tee recently played down reports that he is HIV positive by testing himself with an HIV/AIDS home test kit in released videos.

A staunch follower of the dark-skinned man revealed to TORI NEWS the publicized dream of King Tee to recruit ladies that could flaunt their bares faces without masks and act pornographic contents in utmost confidence.

“The dude is weird and unbelievable! He sleeps with some of the hottest young ladies in Nigeria without protection. He is very energetic and rich. I swear he is the African version of Floyd Mayweather” the source emphasized.

When asked about his interest in King Tee’s obnoxious activities, the youth admitted the enjoyability of his adult short films.

“I know it’s wrong and I will always discourage his activities because of the younger generation but I enjoy it. It helps me to relax and learn new things. I really hope to stop for the sanity of my mind” he concluded.

With over 119,000 followers on Instagram and other social media networks, King Tee might be fast demeaning women at a more accelerated rate than the Club Uno co-manager - Pretty Mike who was swiftly called to order by the Lagos State Commissioner of Justice and Attorney General, Mr. Adeniji Kazeem.

The Lagos State Government in its bid to eradicate 'anti-social acts' might also be forced to place the controversial cross-dresser and self-acclaimed king of Snapchat – Okuneye Idris Olanrewaju aka Bobrisky under check as he continues to negatively influence the younger generation with his flagrant gay antics propagated by the mainstream online media platforms as well as the blogs.

The prominence of Bobrisky mocks the Nigerian law that recommends a 14-year jail term for same-sex relationships. He has also encouraged the influx of other gay men parading themselves as cross-dressers.

A random-sampling of the views of social media users in the know concludes that the popular trio and many others are contributing immensely to moral decadence among youths in Lagos.

Nairaland GeneralBreaking News! MMM Returns To Full Functionality After Freezing Members' Account by uche87(op): 11:23am On Jan 13, 2017
One full month after MMM, freezed the accounts of participants, the ponzi scheme has returned.

A circular pasted on the MMM Nigeria website has shown that the ponzi scheme has finally returned to full functionality.

Although the initial date for resumption of activities on the site was 14th January, the circular revealed that the managemet has decided to resume a little earlier to calm people's strained nerves down.

Read the circular below:

"Dear members,

"The holidays are over, and we''re now open. Just as promised. (You might have already noticed that we always stick to our promises. Actually, we promised to be open on January 14, but we''re open now, January 13, as you can see, which is a day earlier. (Well, I hope, the members of the System will forgive us for that.

"It''s related to the hysteria raised by the authorities and the mass media around MMM. By joining forces, they''ve managed to nearly give the members of the System a heart attack and have frightened them out of their wits. Poor souls don''t know what to expect. Will we open again or not?

"This is why we''ve decided, considering the situation, to reach out to the members, reassure and cheer them up by opening a little earlier. After all, Together We Can Change The World!

"Here we go.

"1. As of this notice, MMM resumes its usual operation. You can now create your GH-requests.

"2. However, it''s obvious that panic will reign in the first few days after the re-opening of the System. We’re likely to be deluged by GH-requests. Therefore, we''re going to make gradual paybacks by setting internal output limits. In other words, we will only pay a certain amount per day. Please, be prepared to wait for a couple of days. We are certain things will then calm down, and the System operation will return to normal.

"We''re the ones setting the limits, so it''s completely under our control, and we are not expecting any emergencies in principle. Have no fear and go on about your business as usual.

"As the System is socially oriented, we will make paybacks to the poor and the economically disadvantaged in the first place: it means to the members with small PH amounts. The richer can wait. Moreover, we''ve warned you repeatedly to only provide help with amounts that are not critical for you. Therefore, if these large amounts are not critical for them (the richer), they can wait a few days. No need to be tragic about it.

"This is the way it''s going to be.

"Hoping for your kind understanding, Sergey Mavrodi. We Change The World!

"P. S. I''d like again to call on the authorities and the mass media: Please, leave us alone! Have mercy on people."

Celebrities"Terry Tha Rapman Was Sleeping With Sarah Ofili Behind My Back" - Ikechukwu by uche87(op): 11:03am On Jan 11, 2017
Nigerian rapper, Ikechukwu has stirred up a serious controversy after he recently revealed the reason for his 2012 break-up with his celebrity girlfriend, model, beauty specialist and designer, Sarah Ofili.

Featuring on a popular podcast, Loose Talk, Ikechukwu revealed why he isn't friends with Terry the Rapman, alleging that the rapper was having an affair with his then fiancee, Sarah.

When asked what his problem with Terry tha Rapman was, Ikechukwu openly revealed that the Kaduna rapper was instrumental in the break-up between him and his ex-fiance.

He said, "smile in your face, all the time...back stabbers. That's how I felt"

"I'm like damn, ni**a, you (Terry) was f*cking my shortie and you ain't tell? Trying to be my hommie?"

Ikechukwu then went on to reveal that even after finding out about the relationship, he still kept it cool with both Sarah and Terry, while also trying to make his relationship work.

"but guess what? I still played the bigger man. Once I got that whiff, I was still like, Okay...I ain't even tell her that I knew the whiff.

"I see him (Terry) when I'm with her, I'm like. Okay...

"Is that Terry on the phone? Tell that ni**a I said what's up...you know what I'm saying?

"Oh that's your sister? Joy? oh Joy what's up, you're family...

"After all, my best friend Chocho be confirming and confiding in me like, and be like yo, everything knows...it's all good.

"But at the end of the day, after we went our separate ways, it came out that they (Sarah and Terry) always used to play.

The former Storm Records artiste reiterated that up until now he still finds it hard to understand how Sarah would cheat on him even after he did all he could for her to become popular.

"Personally, I don't get it...You (Sarah) want the limelight, you claim you wanna build, you wanna grow, and you have all of that, but then you go looking for more, or that same thing somewhere else.

"Perfect example, you wanted the limelight. You have Killz (Ikechukwu)...(taking) you everywhere like on a on a mantlepiece, carrying her everywhere like, 'you must build this profile, you must give this girl name...then you free that and then you went to go f*ck with Terry. What the f*ck does he have?"

The Imo State-born rapper didn't quit without throwing a few more shades at Terry, as he remarked, "Did he (Terry) drop an album yet? Cos when I came back to Nigeria, that ni**a was up and coming. He's still up and coming, right?"

The once-in-love Ikechwuku proposed to Sarah at Regent Square in London on Saturday, October 22, 2011 which coincidentally was Sarah’s birthday.

A year later, the couple called off their engagement over rumoured allegations of infidelity on the part of both lovers.

PoliticsJames Ibori: The Glory Of Being A Celebrity Thief In Nigeria by uche87(op): 2:53pm On Jan 03, 2017
It baffles me when I log unto social media and see gory images/videos of a haggard-looking man being lynched by an irate mob for stealing a handbag from a random passer-by. A handbag with contents like an expired Identity Card from a nameless company, a paltry sum of N1,850, an outdated Tecno Android phone with an ATM card that has an account balance of maybe N6,330. 35.
The vicious mob would be rejoicing as people excitedly donate car tyres and the expensive fuel to burn the suspect like he is the major problem of Nigeria.

Jungle justice is rife in Lagos, Benue, Abia, Port Harcourt, Delta and other states especially in ghettos where people are disconsolate with life probably due to scathing economic hardship. These set of people seize any available measure to expel their frustration and depression. Even at the event of a false alarm, hundreds could gather in the speed of flight like it’s a religious crusade or political rally. Fuel which has suddenly become gold generously surfaces in abundance to orchestrate a barbaric act.

The pick pockets, petty robbers and kidnappers are seen as menace to the Nigerian society. They are treated like outcasts and plagues. The general public viciously condemns these culprits by publicly shaming, maiming or killing them to serve as a deterrent to other would-be criminals. This crude and uncultivated behaviour borne out of lack of faith in the judiciary is a perfect example of seeking short term remedies for long-term drawbacks.

As long as people like the former governor of Delta State, James Onanefe Ibori - a convicted criminal, are celebrated like Jesus Christ during his triumphant entry into Jerusalem; there will be no good governance in Nigeria. The Delta political juggernaut amassed his wealth from being a picaro. He consolidated his stay on the top of the ladder by eating and drinking away the future of his impoverished people and selfishly storing the left-over of their hopes in his numerous private bank accounts. Ibori has successfully robbed Peter to pay Paul just like the popular Ponzi Scheme - Mavrodi Mondial Moneybox. He has deprived a large number of people of the dividends of democracy and also touched the lives of a few to stay relevant in the society.

For running a myriad of offshore companies, the United Kingdom courts in 2007 froze Ibori’s questionable assets worth £17 million ($35 million). He was also accused of bribing the erstwhile chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Malam Nuhu Ribadu with a gargantuan sum of $15 million as at 2007. The funds were reportedly deposited at the Central Bank of Nigeria to serve as exhibit.

In April 2010, about three months after the take-over of government by former President Goodluck Jonathan, a new allegation that he embezzled N40 billion ($266 million) was pressed against Ibori. On 12 July 2010 the Governor of the CBN, Malam Sanusi Lamido revealed that Ibori had used Delta State as collateral for N40 billion loan when he was governor.

On 27 February 2012, accused of stealing US$250 million from the Nigerian public purse, Ibori pleaded guilty to ten counts of money laundering and conspiracy to defraud at Southwark Crown Court, London.

Recently, a suspended lawmaker and whistleblower, Abdulmunin Jibrin alleged that Ibori donated $600,000 to the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara in 2015 to pursue the heated speakership race against Femi Gbajabiamila. Several other public office holders in Nigeria have also been reported to have benefited from the ‘Ibori Bank’ in pursuing their obnoxious ambitions.

Imagine the developmental effects of these mind-boggling funds if judiciously used to develop Delta State where militancy, robbery, oil bunkering and kidnapping have become the dream jobs of all youth due to the current realities in the oil-rich state.
Picture the level of progression in the state if the funds were invested in empowering the youths with quality artisanal trainings, soft loans for entrepreneurs, construction of standard schools, and quality healthcare for the masses, good roads in rural areas to boost the local economy and give the rugged people a sense of belonging.

Ibori successfully used his ill-gotten wealth in putting square pegs in round holes in the Nigerian political sphere. A vivid example is the failure of his lawmaker daughter, Eriatake Ibori (Ethiope West constituency in the Delta State House of Assembly) to read a public speech during a valedictory/tribute session for the late Olorogun Felix Ovuodoroye Ibru, the first civilian governor of Delta State. This irritated her audience and she was humiliated off the stage.

Ibori has also groomed people of questionable characters as political leaders and the resultant effect is the continued desperate rape of public funds at different levels of government. It’s appalling that the Speaker of the Delta State House of Assembly, Chief Monday Igbuya, People’s Democratic Party stalwart, Chief Ighoyota Amori among others like Senator Peter Nwaoboshi on an emergency note hurriedly left Nigeria for the United Kingdom to celebrate the release of Ibori from jail. Nwaoboshi sensationally declared that Ibori facilitated the emergence of Senator Bukola Saraki as Senate President and the alleged ‘Chief Budget Padder’ – Hon. Yakubu Dogara as the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Nwaoboshi, in a video widely circulated on social media, said Ibori made governors, ostensibly incumbent Ifeanyi Okowa, senators (himself as one), made his daughter, Eriatake Ibori a state lawmaker among others despite being restricted behind bars. Even most able-bodied men with unlimited freedom in Nigeria wouldn’t boast of this political feat. What a powerful man!
Niger Delta billionaire, Ayirimi Emami also took to the streets alongside his ilk to celebrate the freedom of the ex-convict probably to demonstrate the importance of criminals to the Nigerian society where everything goes.

A teeming crowd were also paid to celebrate Ibori's homecoming in Oghara and other Urhobo communities in the Delta to kill the shame of being an ex-convict. The next move will be to pay some skilled journalists to help launder the image of Ibori in national newspapers and present him as the missing piece President Muhammadu Buhari needs to actualize the All Progressives Congress agenda of change. This incongruity even further paints the hypocritical nature of Nigerians naturally wired towards double-standards in all spheres of life.

There is no significant difference between Ibori and the petty miscreants being lynched by their fellow despondent misfits. Ibori only stole big. Yes! It’s good to steal big in Nigeria. After heartlessly ravaging the treasury like it’s your inheritance, simply share your loot among your kinsmen and sponsor the elections of other popular politicians. Sink a borehole in your Local Government Area, share some foodstuffs among the less-privileged people during festive seasons, fix a major road and publicize the action. It’s not yet over, go to the traditional rulers and give them their cut because you will need them to ‘tribalize’ your prosecution when the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC knocks at your door.

Stroll to the Church or mosque and drop 'something' called the prophet offering for your spiritual leader and watch him give you that fake and money-induced prophecy of a colourful future. Make sure you have massive funds reserved for lawyers who will be defending you in court. These lawyers will in turn link you with the presiding judge on a subterranean note for a black market judgement.

The way high profile corruption cases are being handled in the country forces one to believe the constitution was only designed to curtail the excesses of the poor alone and not the rich. The jury is very swift to sentence a local chicken or phone thief to prison within a space of three months of hearing the case while the case of N4.7 billion fraud against a former governor of Oyo State, Rashidi Adewolu Ladoja has been lingering for almost 9 years. Sambo Dasuki's trial is still dragging and Patience Jonathan is enjoying massive support from ethnic groups, unscrupulous civil societies, advocacy groups and other protesters embarrassingly disturbing the streets with placards over a paid-service of N2,000 or even at a lower price.

Yes, Nigerians in their typical nature will say; Is it your money? Is he the only thief in Nigeria? What about the late Sani Abacha and others that robbed the country blind during the military regime? Are you not aware of the fact that the former President Olusegun Obasanjo left prison in 1998 with barely N25,000 and he is unofficially one of the richest men in Nigeria today? There will always be a moral justification for his thievery as Ibori's monumental looting holds the ace in the Niger Delta region alongside the late governor of Bayelsa State, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha who was honoured with a moment of perfect silence at the hallowed Senate on his demise. Our gallant soldiers constantly dying in the battle against Boko Haram in the face of lack of water, food, quality weapons and other necessities never went close to such recognition and yet, they bleed defending our territorial integrity against demons created by the political class.

The celebration of Ibori's freedom from jail also reminds of the case of People's Democratic Party chieftain, Olabode George who hit the 'red carpet' after his brief spell behind iron bars. Hamza Al-Mustapha also toed that line as he always elevated to the status of a king overnight for political reasons.

In utmost sincerity, President Muhammadu Buhari can't cleanse Nigeria of corruption. The quest for political power and influence has afflicted Buhari with corruption and corrupt elements that are now his closest allies. Tagging Buhari's name to the fight against abuse of public office is an illusion Nigerians need to recover from. The best fight against corruption should be a collective war. Nigerians need a change of perception. Anybody spending above his means should be 'quarantined' like an Ebola Virus Disease patient.

We need to sacrifice out present cheap gains for a brighter future. We should frown at big thieves the same way we attack the petty ones.
We should bear at the back of our minds that the nefarious actions of the ‘civil robbers’ using their pens to tamper with the commonwealth will give birth to the miscreants on the street.
When there is scarcity of food in the ecosystem, the food chain is altered for survival. The fingerlings become easy prey to the big fishes and it goes on and on.

For Nigeria to move forward, Ibori should be publicly condemned and made to literally parade the streets in sack clothes and ashes as a sign of remorse. He should make a public apology to the Deltans for abusing their trust and scarce resources. Yes, he is not the only one convicted of corruption, but since there is much media attention on his case; it will make an exemplary example to the general public.

We are Nigerians, we are people of integrity, we are not corrupt, we are responsible and cultured people and most importantly, we don't celebrate thieves.
Stealing will never be a part of our culture regardless of the height it is being perpetrated.

Nairaland GeneralToke Makinwa's On Becoming Book: The Falsehood And The 'unbecoming' Fiction by uche87(op): 8:58am On Dec 16, 2016
On-Air-Personality Toke Makinwa's book - 'On Becoming' has enjoyed massive readership and success since its release in November, 2016 all thanks to a well crafted publicity strategy judiciously exploited by her.

Some salient factors have immensely contributed to the popularity of the autobiography. Firstly, there was a good story to tell and this placed the book at a vantage point. Commercializing one's pains and sorrow as a public figure has over time proven to be an instant boom. American white rapper, Marshall Bruce Mathers III popularly known as Eminem is a vivid example as he even went as far as verbally 'lynching' his own mother to sell his music albums. Nigerian indigenous singer Alexander Abolore Adigun professionally regarded as 9ice in 2010 purposely plied that route by using his estranged wife, Toni Payne and former principal, Ruggedman to sell his album through his controversial 'Once Bitten Twice Shy' song. Controversies sell and often times beat the imaginations of the propagators/initiators.
To a journalist, good news is bad news and bad news is good news. The world is hypocritically attached to bizarre news.

Toke Makinwa rode on the backs of the prominence of major blogs in Nigeria to achieve her aim by providing convenient answers to the age-long public questions about her whirlpool of a marriage to Maje Ayida. Toke egoistically slandered, defamed and sacrificed Maje's head on the altar of hustle to rake in cash.

The synopsis of the book alone as undertaken by Bella Naija blog aroused the curiosity of Nigerians who have strong passions for taking an overdose of Panadol for the migraine suffered by other people who don't even know they exist.
Utmost engrossment was given to Toke's book like it could improve the naira and stem the tide of hyper-inflation in the country.

The book is very astounding and peachy from the perspective of literary appreciation. It’s worth more than the rumoured N8,500 set as its price tag. Kudos to Toke if she indeed wrote the book in this age of ghost writers. I was entertained and engulfed with the book till the end. I applauded her and I advised people around me to get copies of the book.

Without being economical with the truth, Toke will woefully fail a polygraph test concerning some questionable details provided in the book if the main focus is placed on her relationship with 'Mr Michael Power' - Maje Ayida and not her tragic family history as well as her childhood. In fact, there are viable loopholes that suggest Toke wrote from a prejudiced view each time the pages concerned Maje.
In journalism, a reporter should note that there are three sides to a story like this which are: Maje's side, Toke's side and the ultimate truth which the public may never know.

In the first chapter of the book - 'Confession' that sounded like an extension of the book of Lamentations in the Holy Bible, Maje was portrayed perfectly as a cold-hearted husband who when asked to leave their matrimonial home due to the furore of Anita Solomon (his side-chick)'s nine months pregnancy demanded to eat dinner while his wife rolled on the floor in agony and sorrow. This passage reeks of a desperate quest for public sympathy and credence with Maje as the prostrated sacrificial lamb.

Toke's book is a total aberration to the messages she preached on her Vlog. Toke advocated for strength amongst women in her regular videos. She went as far as advising female folks to opt out of relationships ridden with infidelity while she stayed put in her purported tortuous relationship. Toke approximately romanced Maje for 12 good years during which they fought incessantly and kept reconciling in a dilly-dally manner. Maje according to the book was a serial womanizer empowered by the influence of money but the posing 'voice of the women' named Toke was overwhelmed by love which prompted her to suffer endlessly in expectance of change.

Read an excerpt from the book that pictures Toke at the crossroads:

"Maje and I had been together for nine years, on and off, at this point, and it had been an unending circle of hurt and betrayal. Every time we took ten steps forward in our relationship, we took fifty back. Each time I gave up and let go, Maje would come after me and hold on so tightly till I gave in.

He would play the part of a changed man for a while, but just when things seemed to be getting better he would break my heart again, each time worse than the last.

I was emotionally exhausted; tears, at this point, had become a constant companion. I was unhappy with him - afraid, suspicious, unsettled - utterly miserable without him. I was in a bad place, and it even got worse."

In my own opinion, I believe that is not love but stark madness. Even the fiercest warrior on the battlefield reserves the right to retreat when there is no glimpse of hope so that he could live to fight another day. In saner climes, Toke would be strongly recommended for the professional services of a therapist or a psychiatrist to analyse one or two things pertaining to her mental fitness. Toke's decision to stay with Maje all those years could be likened to racing with a vehicle that has a history of brake failure and hoping to avoid road accidents; that's an expensive gamble. In street terms, it’s simply called 'O.Y.O' meaning On your Own.

An average normal woman who is beautiful, confident, knows her onions, educated, exposed and well-travelled like Toke should know that being in a directionless relationship for just 1 year alone is a recipe for disaster not to talk of over 9 years of dating. This also corresponds with a common Nigerian saying that “the major indication of a beautiful week is its Monday”.

Half of that lengthy time-frame afforded ex President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan the opportunity of taking over from the late Umar Musa Yar'dua as President in 2010 and also contesting as one in 2011 to emerge victorious. Those years afforded ex Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola the glorious chance of being the first man of the commercial nerve centre of Nigeria - Lagos State for two terms of 8 years and also becoming a federal minister. I can bet my life that the Nigerian masses are not even prepared to be that patient with President Muhammadu Buhari due to the enormity of economic quagmire on ground.

Every reader is looking at those 12 years of the Toke-Maje romance like 12 days or 12 months. Maje kept on using the same monotonous and old strategy of cheating honourably and returning on his knees for over a decade. I believe this is unbecoming of a 'Love Doctor' like Toke as portrayed by her Vlog.

Relationship adviser, Toke knew this trick and kept falling for it like she had gotten so accustomed to the affliction to the extent of the discomfort turning to pleasure.

If this is what she wants us to believe, then something is missing somewhere and its more hurting that Maje has decided to enjoy and focus on his fitness business while Toke basks in the proceeds of her 'work of fiction'.

One wonders how Toke refused to practice what she preached on her Vlog. One ponders on how Toke conveniently hid her tears with her heavy make-ups to fake boldness and offer relationship advices to vulnerable ladies/women based on mere general knowledge and impulse rather than experience or professional training. This is a clear-cut case of a farmer offering professional advice to a legal practitioner on lawyering.

Toke was never interested in the women she claimed to be orientating but she was only building a brand and keeping her career afloat. She is just like the popular Lagos socialite, self acclaimed relationship adviser and psychologist - Adejoro Olumofin who once stupefied his Instagram followers by showcasing his erect manhood on social media presumably to covertly lure some obsessed ladies to him for possible sexual exploitation.

Toke admitted that her friends and family members warned her about Maje. In fact, there was a bitter fight between herself and her cousin concerning the issue which led to her ejection from her house. Maje's blood sister was magnanimous enough to tell her the gospel truth about the die-hard promiscuity of her brother who almost had a girlfriend at every available location in the world. Even Maje's mother in an encounter with Toke according to the book apparently admonished Toke to leave her son. This served as a beacon to Toke but she went ahead because of her typical Nigerian mentality which I will expatiate on.

Nigerian ladies believe in weeping profusely in a 2016 Range Rover Autobiography with bruises all over their faces rather than treading the path of happiness on a brand new Bajaj motorcycle. It’s always the mindset of 'for-better-for-worse' with a rare fighting spirit when there is oil in the region like the Niger Delta area, but the same woman will stand her ground and boldly walk away like a boss when the ground is as indebted as Osun State.

I used to have an affluent friend during my University days who saw more female private parts than a mid-wife. His girlfriend was aware of his randy nature and she stayed with him because his financial role in her life was tremendous. This very beautiful girl took the responsibility of sourcing for the numerous phone contacts of his bed mates to harass and threaten them without any due focus on the young man who is the 'causative agent' in this case.

One day, he landed her a 'military slap' outside an eatery in the presence of a sizeable crowd. Even those that never knew her covered their faces in shame on that fateful day. The scene was 'graphic' but guess what, the lady shook it off and was back with for more torture in less than 24 hours. That's the power of the greenback; so stop lying to yourself that the naira has totally lost its value.

Toke loved Maje's lifestyle and his privileged family that owned a bank from day one. Her account of how she met Maje gave her away and also exposes the plausibility of Maje's return to possess his possession later in the future in spite of her current bitter disposition. It was enviable and pleasurable visiting exotic places in Lagos and Abuja at no cost like they were established for charity purposes because Maje was paying!

Replacing a free-spending socialite could be bothersome and intricate especially in a Nigerian society where some rich people have stronger grips over money than the poor; they will not just let the cash go.
There was certainly more to her motivation than mere true love which is like a ghost we all talk about but no one has ever seen.

In the course of reading the book, I also noticed that Toke conveniently painted herself as perfect as our Lord Jesus Christ. Prior to her relationship with Maje, she had flaws aggravated by the tragic demise of her parents. She was lonely, cold, erratic and delinquent during her early days at the University of Lagos. But dramatically, Toke became an angel when she met Maje. Maje was always wrong while she was always at the receiving end except for the part where she slapped Maje during an altercation or towards the end of the book where she admitted not being wife enough to Maje due to their frequent squabbles.

Is it not incogitable that Toke in the book never made mention of she demanding for money from the top-class Maje or him stunning her with tangible gifts aside flowers, cards and the peppered snail that was delivered to her house in the build up of their romance? This same Toke was quick to mention how Maje demanded for a paltry sum of N2,000 from her which she suspected was for Anita before their marriage. She pointed out that she supported Maje financially at the budding stage of his fitness business.

Even when a separation was rocking the union, Maje once again demanded for funds for the upkeep of Anita's baby which she declined smartly. So the conclusion here is that even during her state of financial vulnerability as a student, Maje's ATM card never came in handy at any point or let's assume the editor of the book found that part inconsequential. With this explanation, we could safely watch out for Maje as the new Anti-Christ born to preside over the dreaded Armageddon.

Furthermore, there are glaring indications that Toke must have coerced Maje into getting married to her and I will spell out my observations. Their marriage was clearly cosmetic. Toke erroneously believed marriage as an institution would change Maje. While Toke tested her star in the United Kingdom, she claimed she once asked Maje why his family members were yet to meet hers but Maje boldly cited the financial gap or class difference as an excuse and this caused her to lose confidence in herself. It would be recalled that Toke's Big Mummy wasn't even poor; she resided at the highbrow Victoria Island area of Lagos. Maje's reluctance made it seem as if her family was from the heart of Ajegunle, Oshodi or Okokomaiko in Lagos. The will wasn't vigorous from the start. This is a scenario of an option feeling like a priority.

Another point is Maje's frequent patronage of Anita. The fact that Maje kept returning to her at the expense of his relationship with Toke indicated where his heart truly belonged and to confirm this, Maje confessed his love for Anita when Toke was lodging at a topnotch hotel with him for her United Nations event-anchoring job.

Another strong attestation of the forced marriage is the fact that Maje who has no history of mental disorder kept cancelling the wedding registry appointments at the eleventh hour which he did three times. Even when he showed up, he only came with two of his aunts. Who does that? This is Nigeria where such occasions are celebrated to the fullest even to the extreme point of incurring heavy debts that the couple may later repay in tears and regrets.

Under this circumstance, one could assume Toke proposed marriage to Maje who reluctantly said YES out of pity.

And also, the fact that Toke never got pregnant for him at any point in 12 years or significantly during the short-lived marriage is another point of concern. Probably Toke edited that part out on the grounds of confidentiality but what happened when they got married? Toke initially assumed the wealthy and classy Maje never wanted a child yet due to the extra expenses of raising one in the face of his new business challenge.

She claimed Maje channelled his entire energy and finances into establishing his fitness facility and having a child would have been an extra expense on him. Is it not ridiculous that such cheap issue is bothering a celebrity couple of the upper class?

So fathering a child now equates the cost of managing a private jet following the mindset of Toke? That doesn't add up sister Toke! Not at all!!
Maje never just wanted a permanent bond between both of them and in the book he later told her to her face to spite her. One wonders how Maje kept 'pulling out' for 12 good years without any mishap. The dude must be the author and finisher of withdrawal method also known as Coitus Interruptus.

At a point, Maje was actually struggling to have sex with her even on vacation to show how lost he felt with Toke. This same man was also reported to have constantly turned down taking pictures with Toke e.g. the Chinatown saga or flaunting her on social media as women folks would desire.

Another fallacious part of the book is how Toke painted a 'born again' picture of herself. This was prominent while she was in her hotel room in France on a working visit. She talked about how she fasted and prayed out her marriage and how the 'Holy Spirit' communicated directly with her by leaving revelations in her mouth while she passed through what looked like a trance. She also talked about a pastor of the House on the Rock Church named Goke Coker telling her about her calling in Christendom. In as much as I find these revelations fascinating about Toke whose lifestyle suggested the exact opposite, one is forced to conclude that Toke has a split personality.

She is like the modern day hypocritical Christians who are very lukewarm in their service to God. We are talking about the class of people who are neither here nor there. The set of people that engage in all manners of immoralities at nightclubs on Fridays and head out for evangelism on Saturdays as well as the Church on Sundays. They are simply actors and life is their movie set.

Toke reminds me of the President-elect of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump who chipped in Christianity issues during the political race to the White House simply to secure the support of the evangelicals. The same Trump freely insulted his opponents and other public figures in unspeakable manners. The same Christian Trump grabbed p**sies of some women he encountered prior to his presidency. So Toke's reference to Christianity to score cheap points and attract sympathy is an expected and welcome development.

I hate being judgmental but I must admit that the only thing Christian about Toke may be that she is a Church goer. She is far from a born again Christian. Toke's lifestyle abused virtually all the Christian practices. Toke engaged in pre-marital sex with Maje. She admitted attending club houses and we all know what goes down there. Toke never used her Vlog to preach the word of God. She never used her radio and TV programmes to do the same. Her guests were not even gospel artistes but the trending and hot secular ones who sang about weed, alcohol, sex, violence and all manners of frivolities pertaining to youth exuberance.

Toke has been caught in the web of scandalous outfits worn to high-profile events to steal headlines forgetting the fact that her body is God's temple as the bible teaches us. Her outfit to her book signing that almost left her panties to the full glare of the public backs up my point. That action was premeditated. Toke wanted to be talked about to boost the publicity of her book. She chose the economic benefits over morality and she is born again.

Ultimately, Toke's one of a kind bleaching is legendary. She actually went from being dark to being white. The Bible says we are all perfectly made by God. Doesn't her action negate that biblical provision? Toke even consented to making a sex tape with Maje before their marriage just to please him. What happened to her personal values and dignity as a woman?

Words are cheap and actions speak louder than the voice. The truth is that Toke doesn't even know who she is. I am pretty sure she is only sure of her name while the understanding of her own behavioural tendencies is in doubts.

Toke has perfectly played the victim with Maje representing the male folks being the villain who derived joy from the pains of others. Toke is now the voice of the women forgetting that in life we are the architects of our own misfortunes. The kind of choices you make will determine the results you get. These are foundation principles of life.

Toke sold her heart to her tormentor when there were several opportunities to walk away and now she is seeking public sympathy and demonising Maje. I pray Maje shares his own side of the story one day but it seems he is purposely maintaining a loud silence to allow Toke enjoy the floodgates of financial returns from her highly entertaining piece that has swiftly pushed her Instagram followership to over one million since the book launch.

Forget about the intended message in the book, the quest for money is rife.
