LoL, you realise they don't really own all of those wristwatches? most times they're simply modelling for them and posting the pics online while cashing in on the reputation that they're so rich, most of these celebs live simple private lives and only put on these extravagance for show; that's why once they have terrible health issues you'll realise they're not as wealthy as you thought they were as they'll start soliciting for donations which would make the average fan ask "What about all these cars and wristwatches they always show to us?"

hopefulLandlord:
LOL if you believe those guys own private jets, I want to sell the Buckingham palace to you

Nigeria's king of comedy, Ali Baba, has reacted to the photo of big and bold corper currently trending on internet.

The Veteran Comedian took to Instagram page to warned that some things should not be used as joke.


He wrote: "I have seen this picture online and ignored it. I received it from 6 different people. Amusing as many found it, I did a double take. Only God knows how much guts it took her to wear that and pose for the picture. But that doesn't matter. She is a graduate. That doesn't matter. She offered to serve Nigeria. That doesn't matter. She posed for the picture. That too doesn't matter. What matters to some is just the laughs. I'm a comedian, So we tease everyone. But sometimes we need to know how sensitive some issues are and skip skip skip... We all have our issues. May not be weight related issues. But we sure do have them. Come to think of it, this lady here may just be the sweetest friend to some people. She may be a chronic romantic to a high heavens. Strong Christian with the genuine fear of God. Can be trusted with secrets. Generous to a fault. Very lively. Awesome cook. Home maker. Talented singer. First class graduate... But she won't cut across like any of those things I just listed. The one that you will choose over her will be a size 10 slay queen. That has no degree. No respect. No home training. Kisses and tells. Has no friends. Can't be trusted. Knows all the babalawos in the outskirts of town. Husband snatched... yes, that slay queen will get 50,000 likes. But this One? Naaa. Don't get me wrong nooo... She needs to keep for so she can be healthier... But when you consider all the good qualities she may have, her weight counts less."

Personally, the Nigerian syllabus is more robust than that of the UK, there is more universality being presented in the Nigerian syllabus. The best Computer Scientist are excellent Mathematicians, the major problem remains lack of quality laboratories and lecturers, if the listed issue is solve, i would rather ask my kid to go study in a University where he would gain knowledge across board than a specific one.

safarigirl:
they are wrong for such depiction

The earliest Europeans were Neanderthals who spent their time hitting each other over their heads with clubs, if we all begin to depict them like that, their descendants will get offended

this useless stereotype of black people living in a jungle using spears and bows and arrow to fight while the white leaves in skyscrapers and drive jn flying cars should end in 2018
