About five years ago, four young graduates of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife got together to build a pioneering online real estate platform. Originally trading as Estatenode, the business later metamorphosed into ToLet.com.ng. You might remember it as the startup which, barely 2 months ago, raised $1.2m in a Series A funding round led by Malaysia-based Frontier Digital Ventures.

Between them, they have an interesting mix of backgrounds in Engineering, Commercial Law, and Estate Management, a combination which has no doubt played an instrumental role in their journey so far.

Techpoint spent an afternoon with the co-founders — Seyi Ayeni (CTO), Sulaiman Balogun, Fikayo Ogundipe (CEO) and Dapo Eludire (COO) — at the ToLet office in Ikeja, where they shed more light on their success, struggles, and aspirations.


Muyiwa Matuluko of Techpoint: Congratulations on your successful Series A funding round. It’s tough enough raising money in an environment like Nigeria. But you guys somehow managed to pull it off

Fikayo Ogundipe of ToLet: Thank you Muyiwa. Indeed, it is particularly difficult trying to raise money in Africa, especially if you are going for anything above a million dollars. And we are just a bunch of guys from Ife (Obafemi Awolowo University – OAU), with no international experience working for the likes of Google. Nor are we Stanford, MIT or Harvard alumni. These are real barriers people trying to raise money in these climes face.


Fikayo Ogundipe

I think besides Jobberman and Hotels.ng, we are the only local guys who have been able to raise over a million dollars. So I think that we being able to achieve this sends a message of hope in these, particularly troubling times. As a matter of fact, we ourselves were largely motivated by the chaps at Jobberman because we were classmates at OAU. We honestly believed that if they could do it, so could we. It’s a cycle. That’s why, despite the fact that we are not the media-frenzy kind of people, we were deliberate about announcing this round. People need to know things like this can still happen.

MM: How did you guys come together to build the business?

FO: Sulaiman came up with the idea in 2011 I believe. He first shared the vision with me and I was sold. We realized that we needed a formidable team that could help build it so I got in touch with Dapo and Seyi. Dapo already had hands-on experience in Real Estate while Seyi had a reputation as an accomplished programmer; it was a great mix. We had our first meeting in August that year and the rest is history.

MM: Correct me if I am wrong but, I believe there was barely an existing online real estate market in Nigeria at the time. So why did it seem like such a brilliant idea back then?

Sulaiman Balogun of ToLet: There was Dealfish, which later became OLX. But they were actually a general classifieds platform so as far as we were concerned there was really no one playing in the space. However, in December, just around the time we had managed to vet the idea and were making moves to start building, PrivateProperty.com.ng came along from South Africa. They acquired a little-known property website here in Nigeria and launched.


Sulaiman Balogun

So while we were still on the streets hustling, these guys had branded vehicles and venture backing. It was quite demoralizing, to say the least

MM: Naturally, most people would have given up at this point. What gave you guys the conviction to stick it through?

FO: Even till now I, really can’t answer that question satisfactorily. On paper, it looked like we were really stupid then. But in hindsight, I’d say that nothing beats the passion and desire to solve a problem so hard that you believe you can do it better than anyone who has been doing it for years. So we just kept at it. At some level, the entry of Private Property was the needed validation that there was a market for what we were doing. We honestly believed we could always do it better and faster.

MM: Personally and collectively, what were the toughest obstacles you had to overcome those early days?

FO: If I could speak on behalf of everyone else, I’d say the biggest hurdle for us, besides capital, was sticking to our dream. All our colleagues appeared to have their lives in order; you could see that they had direction. We, on the other hand, didn’t seem to have a clear vision of where we were going. The psychological effect was that we were always in doubt, always in fear of missing out.


Dapo Eludire of ToLet : I agree. Even after 2 years into the business, my parents were still sending me job ads to apply to. Because they couldn’t understand what we were doing, they struggled with acknowledging the vision. That alone was a bit of a downer. It can be really difficult when you are unable to convince the only people you look out to for support. You just have to believe in what you’re doing and keep going.



Sulaiman Balogun: Interestingly enough, I initially appeared to have some sort of direction. Just as I was rounding off my Master's program, I got a job offer in New York. My dad was really excited. So you can imagine his disappointment when I told him I would rather work on building ToLet. He thought I was mad; he literally didn’t speak to me much for over a year. If I had looked from the outside, at myself and what we were doing then, I probably would have thought I was mad too.

Seyi Ayeni of ToLet: Even without actually looking for jobs, I got job offers from the likes of IBM and Facebook. These were really tempting offers but at that point, we were so passionate about building the business that nothing else mattered.

Dapo Eludire: The irony for me was that my dad owns a real estate firm. As the first born and only son, who happened to study real estate management, it was expected that I would take over the family business. It didn’t make sense to my father that I would go against what he had been prepping me for so long. Despite the fact that he is into real estate, he still found it difficult to grasp what we were doing. That has changed now, though. He is now one of my biggest fans.

MM: So at what point did your parents fully acknowledge what you were doing?

FO: I would say after we raised our Series A round, because even after raising $240,000 seed funding from Jason Njoku’s Spark, they weren’t quite convinced.

SB: The turning point for me was in 2015 when my dad happened to meet with a prominent figure within the technosphere. This person was lecturing my dad about how big the internet can be in Nigeria. When he mentioned ToLet as one of the few business making waves in Nigeria, my dad proclaimed excitedly, “that’s my son’s company”!

I have never seen my dad more proud of me than that day. Not even when I graduated from law school.

MM: You guys have been in this partnership for about 4 years now. Was there ever a time you felt like giving up on the partnership?


FO: Never. We’ve considered giving up on the business but never the partnership.

MM: So how many times have you considered giving up on the business?

FO: You know when God said in the Bible that we can’t count the hairs on our heads right? Yeah, that many times.

MM: Based on your experience, what advice would you give young entrepreneurs looking to raise money for their startup?


FO: First you have to be passionate. As long as your aim is not to be ‘cool’, but to actually solve a problem that really exists, you’re on the right track.

Second is the market. Your idea could be fantastic but if your market is small, you can’t really attract investors.

Another thing is timing, which is a bit technical. I know someone who tried to build a similar business in 1999 and it never worked. Some markets take a while to get ripe but when they are ripe enough, even a substandard product will get massive traction.


Even in the early days, when we thought our product wasn’t up to standard, we still attracted offers from Spark, acquisition of talent from MIH and some level of interest from Rocket Internet. My point is that, you should be sure of your market and that your timing is proper.

Once all these are in place, the next thing is to reach out to as many investors as possible. When we were trying to raise our seed fund, we reached out to potential investors on every platform we could find them — LinkedIn, VC4Africa, Angel List, you name it. We got all kinds of responses, a lot of them condescending, a few of them encouraging. Eventually, we were able to get Spark to invest.

MM: What’s the big picture for ToLet within say the next 5 years?

FO: It’s quite simple. We want to get to a point where anyone looking to rent or buy property in Africa thinks of ToLet.com.ng first.

Wawuu!. According to this "sex expert" Miranda Kane - love making is more enjoyable for women when they have plenty of hair 'down there' - because it gives you better orgasms when the hair follicles get stroked. She also added a few more tips on why you should never shave your pubs again.

1. Pubic hair collects pheromones – those lovely little particles that announce ‘Hello! I’m ready for sex, please!’. And is it just me, or do they smell good anyway? That lovely, musky scent that helps you remember what you were up to last night.

2. They’re protection from bacteria. Hairs draw up moisture and protect your Instruments from things like thrush, and removing it leaves tiny open wounds that increase your chances of abscesses and infections.

3. They increase sensation. At the end of each follicle is a nerve ending, so when you gently brush or breath over them, it gives you a tiny tingle to help stimulation.

4. They’re natural, they’re supposed to be there. It’s a major hint from nature that, like pretty much all the other nifty things in and around your body, they have a job to do. Whether that job is warmth, cushioning, or just being a filter for picking out people who want to degrade you by insisting they have a say in what you do with your body hair.

5. If you’re in a sexual relationship with someone who says things like, ‘The only hair I like is the hair on your head,’ then you’re going out with a dickhead. Seriously. Do not let them touch you. Do not give them the pleasure of your beautiful Instruments. Grab your coat, leave, do not pass go and seriously consider charging them £200 for the pleasure of your company.

We all know that an employee must have personal hygiene. No company will want an employee who cannot present him/herself. Personal hygiene as a whole lot to do with your appearance and also you smell. I am not talking about you having a bad odour, I mean too much perfume/cologne.

It is important in a professional setup for an employee to maintain decorum, this is also applicable especially in the matter of personal grooming habits. One of the major factors of physical appearance is the perfume one wears.

Have you ever felt irritated by the intensity of a colleague’s perfume? Well, I have. A number of people wear perfume not just because of personal hygiene, some just do it as a way of seeking attention, the bad kind.

In some states in the US, there is a legal move to outlaw perfumes in the workplace. Some private companies have even banned it. Now for us in Nigeria, it hasn’t gotten to that point yet (I haven’t heard of anything like that).

I think placing a ban of perfume is just excessive and rigid.But if we don’t want our companies to start making policies like that, we should be mindful of how we wear perfume.

The principle of avoiding strong fragrances at the workplace is justified to a certain extent as it might cause a distraction to other employees. But one does not need to ban it altogether.

We should be able to wear perfume as long as it doesn’t cause anyone inconvenience. But it is difficult to determine what kind of perfume is workplace friendly.

What to be kept in mind while wearing perfume at work?

It is important to realise that the convenience of the colleagues in the workplace has to be taken into consideration. The employee needs to keep in mind the sensitivity of the people who work with him. The colleagues in close proximity to him can inhale the fragrance which will linger in the air for a long period of time. Excessive fragrance can cause nasal irritation, nausea, dizziness, headaches, and breathing problems. One might not be aware of a colleague’s health problems hence it’s better to keep the perfume subtle.

At times, it is not always the perfume which is the culprit. There are various laundry detergents, shampoos, soaps, and fragrant makeup products which may be responsible for emitting a strong smell. Therefore it is not always necessary that wearing perfumes must be avoided. One should take care if his hygiene products are not too fragrant.

Another reason why wearing strong perfume at work is not advisable is because it draws a lot of attention to the person wearing it. While passing by a co-worker or even on walking into the board room, people present will immediately notice the presence of such a person. This kind of attention gives a wrong impression of the employee. According to workplace etiquette, such people seek attention to make their presence felt. This can create a negative impression in the minds of the head of the company as well as the manager. Consequently, one should avoid strong fragrances at work.

Use of perfume is a personal hygiene of certain people. It avoids body odour and emits a pleasing smell. Excess of anything is unfavourable and same is the case in the use of perfume as well. When an employee’s perfume is causing discomfort to someone, the manager can bring it to his notice in a polite manner. This will avoid any kind of miscommunication between the manager and the employee. At the same time, the workplace environment will not be very strict; instead, it’ll be a healthy one.

Over the weekend, I was on Instagram, checking out posts I have missed throughout the week. I saw a post that kind of made me feel sick. The post read: “We All Love to Hear the Three Most Beautiful Words in the English Dictionary, You Look Thin”. If you ask me, I have never wanted to hear those words. I want to hear things like “You look fabulous”, “You look Healthy”, I don’t want to hear I look thin, I can be thin and also be unhealthy. Anorexics look thin, and they are unhealthy. If you feel you have to look thing, then you are body shaming yourself.

Over the years, the world’s perception of female beauty was said to be Cleopatra. She was described as “Slim and nubile, with cunning hips and the mere hint of a belly. Her charms were of a jewel-like nature; there was nothing large and dowdy about her. All men desired her because all men believed she had conquered the nature of the human body and made it bend to her will, and her will alone. Her beauty was of such a diaphanous nature as to make it seem the slightest desert breeze would blow her away, past the Pyramids and into the Nile. Thus all men wished to hold her and protect her.”

It’s funny how today’s women are still struggling to look like Cleopatra. They cook up crazy diets; exercise like nothing else just because they feel the “fat chat,” is a pox on female existence.

Since Cleopatra’s time, women have been slaves, more or less, to the image of perfect beauty in face and in form. Women today have paid a terrible price for this, in the form of mental depression and desperation, as well as physical torture from plastic surgeries. Pills, potions, and starvation are still so common among women seeking physical perfection.

The truth is there can never be another Cleopatra; you can only define beauty by yourself. Women need to end the insanity and begin restoring the image of their body as beautiful.

If you have an issue with your body, you need to step back and ask yourself why you hate your body. You need to learn to love your body because you can get a kidney transplant but I have never heard of anything like a body transplant. I am in love with myself; I have always been a big girl. I try to be active for at least 20 minutes every day. I try to eat healthily, and I take care of myself. I won’t kill myself because I don’t look like a supermodel. Well, it’s not in my genes to look skinny. And I know what I am saying because the last time I tried it just because I had to learn to love myself, everyone said I look ill, and I was slim, yet, I looked ill.

Your time is better spent doing something other than worrying about your figure. Like spending time with your significant other, finally crossing another book off your reading list, or finally clearing out your closet.

If you happen to love and appreciate food like me, you’ll realise food is too delicious and meant to be eaten. I believe as long as you’re healthy, that’s all that matters. Exercise, eat well, and you’re good to go.

Looks are impermanent anyway. Do you want to go through life always wishing you looked different? Or would you rather eagerly await the joys every age has in store for you? You also need to realise there is no such thing as a perfect body, Chasing a “perfect” figure is just foolish.

You are a woman who has had so many accomplishments, and will still have much more, why are you so bothered about looking like a celebrity? It’s just foolish you need to realise you are beautiful the way you are.

Thinness doesn’t guarantee happiness. What makes you think that a thin person’s life lacks the challenges and adversities that you have faced and successfully overcome? Or that skinny people are automatically treated better than others? It guarantees neither happiness nor unhappiness, riches nor poverty, happiness nor misery.

Your body is not who you are. Feelings, thoughts, and relationships all go into forming who you really are — not your abs or bust size. To feel good about yourself is not to lie to yourself, but to take a self-inventory and honestly examine the good that you’ve done to yourself and to others.

[center]So with an overwhelming sense of pheromones

And justification of my heart thumping and my nerves tingling,

here’s my lips to yours

In a solemn declaration of my infatuation

Let them merge, deepen and maybe heighten my pulse,

like wine fizzling in a cup

let my heated blood sensitize my nipples

as they stand in affirmation of the five-minute connection I felt with you

And ride on thin thirsty waves of sheer amourousness

And let my fingers join closer than out bodies and explore our physicality, mental distance notwithstanding

as long as my breasts fill the cup of your hands, we were meant to be,

we can cuddle in a few knowledge of names only

heart thumping sex filling the blanks

and let me be left with a numbing nothing

and assurances of sweet nothings

buttered with kisses without meaning.[/center]

A few weeks ago, I posted something on my Facebook wall, it was an issue that had been on my mind for a while, and I just had to put it up. To have it, the Facebook community literally crucified me for the post. I was really surprised that a lot of people had something to say about it.

I had more comments from that post than I had in my entire Facebook post in the last two years combined. I don’t regret posting it because I was only giving my opinion to a very serious matter. Something I have noticed affects a lot of women, and they simply don’t realise it. I may also be crucified here for going in depth about it, but its just my opinion and I believe we are all entitled to it.

I have come to realise that most women lose themselves all in the name of being “Mrs somebody”. I read something once, that talked about how a lot of women go into relationships so they won’t be lonely, instead, they loose themselves in the process. Don’t get me wrong, I understand relationship are all bout compromises, but you shouldn’t lose what makes you, you because of a partner.

I started this talking about women, but it applies to both sexes, as there have been cases of men who can’t identify themselves all just because they want to be with someone.

I could remember a few years ago, one of my older friends used to talk about how she will never lose some vital things about herself for any man. I used to laugh at all she said then because they were so funny, but as I got older I realised what she said was very correct. We shouldn’t loose ourselves loving someone else. It will only make us feel empty in the long run.

Unfortunately, this friend of mine did lose herself because of a man she thought was worth it. Now she is bored in her marriage, despises her husband and feels like she is in a prison and needs to find a way out. I won’t be surprised if she tells me she is leaving her husband soon.

Now whats the point of going into a relationship, losing you because of it, and later feeling empty and disgusted by your actions. It just doesn’t make any sense to me.

Loneliness should not make you just jump into any relationship, you might just end up still being lonely with that person.

If you are with someone who doesn’t share the same interest with you, instead of expressing to him/her how discontent you feel with them, you lie to them that you are so happy in the relationship. You can only wear a disguise for so long before your true self begins to fight for air to breathe. Don’t bring suffering to yourself and others by denying your heart the things it so desperately requires to be satisfied. It is better you find someone who wants the same things as you, and won’t expect you to lose yourself because of love.

Don’t be naïve and make crucial decisions based on your relationship, if not you’ll lose your dreams and yourself because of your partner. You need to realise that if you both love yourselves truly and are on the same page , your partner will support your decision. You should also realise that true love will survive any condition, any distance and all obstacles. You should never have to sacrifice your hopes, dreams, or passions to sustain a relationship and any person who loves you will never ask you to.

If you are not careful you can also lose your friends because of your partner. You can be the person who can’t be with your friends because you’re so consumed with your partner to the point where it’s as if you’re not even there. You shouldn’t be making every conversation about your love life. You had a life before you met your partner, learn to balance both.

A partner that truly loves you will learn to understand you and love you for you. He/she won’t expect you to be someone else because of them, they will appreciate you for your uniqueness and will love you more because you stick to who you are.

Permitting that you realize this isn’t a joke and you haven’t clicked the back-button out of Kanye related-hatred, where do we begin?

He’s perhaps best known for his award show interruptions and questionable proclamations, rather than his insights into digital marketing. However, there’s a lot to dissect and learn from the man who has had one of the lengthiest and most consistent careers in pop history. The best place to start has got to be where he’s created a lot of noise lately: social media.


UNDERSTANDING THE POWER OF SOCIAL… AND USING IT WISELY

“No one man should have all that power”

Now the obvious caveat is that Kanye West brings with him the media spotlight and some 23 million followers on Twitter alone, so it’s easier for him to create noise and engage with a wide audience. However, he still offers some useful lessons about how we share and interact on social alone.

Mix things up: Posting the same content over and over isn’t going to garner a return. Kanye varies his content, and also the velocity of it. His notorious Twitter ‘rants’ come thick and fast, followed by quiet phases, emerging to share a release date or image. Translated to your brand, this could mean live tweeting a relevant event, to Periscoping a product launch or even something as simple as the view from your head offices.
Don’t be afraid to be personal: Kanye made headlines by using Twitter as a means to announce that he is/was $53 million dollars in debt. An extremely personal revelation, but one that again put him in the eye of the public and cleverly drew attention to his new album. Now, we’re not suggesting your digital marketing strategy should reveal company finances, but adding a personal touch can boost trust and uncover the face behind the brand.
Share the content of others: Avoid keeping everything centered on your own brand when it comes to your social accounts. Kanye doesn’t just share links to his own music videos or songs on Soundcloud because more often than not, he’s sharing songs from other artists, in fact, he even shared his favorite sofa!


If there’s a piece of content that will be relevant or valuable to your audience, then share it! This not only cements your profile as follow-worthy but builds the image of your brand being ‘in the know’.


KEEP THINGS FRESH

“Her man in the store tryna try his best, but he just can’t seem to get Kanye fresh”

From one album to the next, it’s undeniable that Kanye consistently changes his sound to move with the times and stay relevant. Any track from 2013’s dark and aggressive Yeezus (aside from maybe Bound 2) is in a whole other stratosphere to the chipmunk-like samples that launched him as a hip-hop icon.

While your own industry may be pharmaceuticals or finance, for example, the mantra of keeping things fresh to stay relevant needs to apply to all of your marketing channels. Web design should regularly be refreshed, evergreen content pieces need to be revisited and when it comes to PR, trying something different is always a good idea.

In a world where attention spans are shorter and the volume of creative content much higher, keeping up (and beyond that, being original) is essential.



THE GREAT COLLABORATOR

“I told Jay I did a song with Coldplay, next thing I know he got a song with Coldplay – back in my mind I’m like damn, no way!”

Kanye made his name as a producer and rapper through his samples and collaborations. Borrowing from someone else shouldn’t be seen as a bad thing, and collaborating with people to amplify your content and overall marketing output is something wholly worth considering.

Just like adding features to a song, collaborating with influencers to create content can make it a stronger piece and also put it in front of more eyes – meaning boosted visits and opportunities to market your business to a new audience. When Kanye collaborated with Paul McCartney, it brought the attention of McCartney fans to West and his music. Albeit on a smaller scale, if you were to get an influential food blogger to create a recipe out of your product, for instance, their audience is suddenly yours, too.


ALL ABOARD THE HYPE TRAIN

“Yeezy season approaching”

Kanye coined the term ‘Yeezy Season’, a statement now widely used whenever the man himself is releasing new music, or a new piece of his fashion line. In short, Kanye hype has reached fever pitch, and the release of The Life of Pablo is the most recent example of this.

Again utilizing the power of social media, track-listings scribbled on lined paper were teased, album titles were changed and free songs were dropped out of the blue. All culminating in an ‘album listening party cum fashion show’ at Madison Square Garden which was, of course, live-streamed to sold out cinemas around the world (seriously).

The album was subsequently released exclusively on the streaming service TIDAL, which more than doubled the existing sign-ups and rocketing it to the top of the app store. When the album was finally released on Spotify following a six-week run on TIDAL, it was the first album to go number one from Spotify streams alone.

The key learning? Don’t underestimate hype and the potential gains from throwing an aspect of exclusivity to the mix. While your product may not be seen as exciting as a new album, competitions or exclusive product trails can be a great way to start. For any product launch, PR is your greatest tool for creating hype. Use it to build up to the launch of the product and campaign, and if possible, create a scramble to be a part of it.



CUTTING THROUGH THE NOISE TO STAND OUT

“There’s a thousand you’s, there’s only one of me”

Whichever market you’re in, it’s likely that it’s highly saturated with competitors all trying to do the same thing.

Take a look at how Kanye brands himself and his work. It is deliberately positioned to go against the grain and stand out, with 2013’s Yeezus album artwork being our case in point. Other musicians make painstaking efforts with their artwork, and instead, Kanye decided to ditch it completely, leaving a transparent CD case and CD that looked exactly like those rewritable ones you have lying about at home. On a shelf against the various colorful album covers, there’s only one that stands out.

This approach can be applied when planning campaigns. The press loves an alternative story, especially one that is tied to an event such as Valentine’s Day or Christmas, as most of the content is the highly predictable year in year out. If you can do something slightly unconventional that ties in your product, then you’re most likely on to a winner.


ONE LAST THING… DON’T FOLLOW HIS LEAD COMPLETELY

Whether you’re an avid fan or can’t stand the sound of his name, it can’t be denied that the man is a master of marketing, with an output that can be learned from. That’s not to say there isn’t one gigantic flashing warning sign: don’t follow his example on everything. With all of the good, there are still quite a few things to avoid outright, such as:

Interrupting speeches at award shows
Over-hyping your product (remember ‘This is the best album of all time’?)
Comparing yourself to God, Pablo Picasso, Walt Disney and other momentous historical figures
Making highly questionable statements. For example…
giphy-6

Beyond that though, let Yeezus guide you… your marketing could benefit!

How to identify a Yoruba demon

Well carved beard
Calm look
Agbada
Black Mercedes
That Yoruba name
The Yoruba boy swag
The ultimate squad


He had it all! The Yoruba boy starter pack! 1,000! What was it about this guy that made me so uneasy? and why couldn’t I take my eyes away?

Our eyes meet and he returns my matching look with a daredevil smile…Oh! What nerve! I quickly avert my eyes …Who does this guy think he is? ..Mschew!

He starts to walk towards my direction, looking at me square faced in the eye and I start to feel my heart pounding…My inner self-squeals ‘OMG! he’s coming here”. Instead, he passes my table just to make conversation with the anorexic looking babe at my back. OK! Am pissed and I could not even

Hide it… As I stand up to leave my table, I feel a strong grip on my arm…’Where do you think you’re going?’…….I look back and all I could see was a pink lower lip and a very clean carved beard. Chineke! it’s him! ….Trying to keep my cool before I trip on my 5-inch heels…”I am sorry, do I know you?”

“No, am very sure you don’t but I really want to. My name is Oluwaferanmi”

And he really did get to know me. The aura of calmness around him should have been the red light for me but I just couldn’t resist. He just had this inexplicable resolve about him that made me want to jump through hoops for him, any time, any day.

‘Calm down, Baby girl’ Sewa, my bestie wasn’t having any of my gists. She just sat there looking at me like I am some kind of mumu.

‘You know he would only break your heart right? So why are you going with it?’

The simple fact that I could not answer that question made it ring in my head for days.

What exactly is it about these Yoruba boys?

You know how girls just love bad boys, Yoruba demons embody all the badness! All the bad boy streak! Why else would they be called ‘demons’?

They just always know the right thing to say at the right time. Even if you are wise enough to know it’s a lie, you still want to laugh and smile like a BOLO. You still tend to fall or want more of the words they are dishing. They know it, they know you know it, they know you like it and they know you would always be back for more. It’s pure mind fuckery… Trust me!

They look harmless and sincere. Even those with the bad boy look, beards and all have a certain sincere aura about them.

Knowing that 90percent of girls love romance, they prey on it! These Yoruba demons would stop at nothing just to wine, dine and…..EAT you! They are romantic to a fault. they would pop gifts at your door, just because….. Leaving you fantasizing about how caring, sensitive and loving this “Femi” guy…not to say that there aren’t romantic guys out there o!…. but damn Yoruba demons are smooth Casanovas. There is no limit to a Yoruba demons’ spending. Even if his goal is to “hit and quit that” you would sha get some of the finest trips in town.

They always have this harmless, sincere aura about them and they play these qualities to the fullest. The ones that are not totally handsome have this confidence about them that totally adds up to their “normal” features.

These Yoruba demons pride themselves in their ability to possess and conquer even the most independent, unwilling chick that has seen it all. They are mighty fine, dressed to perfection with their killer smiles and ever so evident sophistication. They are the everyday woman’s dream (you really can’t deny) but most often than none, this dream ends in a nightmare with hearts all over the floor (the girl’s especially).

It is no surprise that these fickle men would not bother to look at the good inside if they are not interested in the package as to them a girl’s packaging is everything! These Yoruba demons don’t joke with their look or the big boy impression they are trying to portray so they tend not to go for anything less.

One really funny thing they do after they get to “hit and quit that ” is to act like it’s your fault they are leaving you. They guilt trip you so much so that you start thinking you have serious issues. The really crafty ones would come up with different excuses like; “Oh baby, I have issues with commitment”….The ever popular “it’s not you, it’s me” line or the “Am still working on myself”….”I don’t think I deserve you”… “I think I’m limiting you”….”you deserve better”… “Let’s take it slow”…..LOL!…Who says these?!!! They would never know all these before they hit that o…hehe! smh!

If you are still interested in nailing a Yoruba demon, please, guard yourself, defenses up all the way till the end! Remind yourself not to get your heart broken. Be a bad ass bit** yourself. Let him do the chase, catch his attention and know what to do with it, till you observe if he’s for real but before then, basically lean back (in Fat Joe’s voice) and enjoy the ride!

Humans aren't perfect, and that includes your boyfriend, so it's completely normal for your boyfriend to get on your nerves, same way you'll also do the same. When it comes to relationship advice, you need to understand that it takes two to tango. Guys, a lot of times your habits can be too annoying for your own good. So, maybe instead of being the reason your girlfriend cries, you need to spend more time trying to be the reason behind the twinkle in her eye.

1. Getting way too drunk with your bros

Your girlfriend understands that you'll definitely want to hang out with your friends, but when you end up drunk all the time that happens, then there is a problem. No girl loves to date a guy who comes over drunk and can barely pay enough attention to her. A relationship demands trust, patience, and time. When you are always drunk, how are you ever going to take the time to invest in your relationship? Next time, pass on the last three beers. Buzzed is okay; outrageously wasted is not.

2. Expecting us to cook

This is really annoying. A lot of men expect their woman to cook all the time even when she is ill. I mean what is that. Your girlfriend learnt to cook, she wasn't born with it, you to can learn to cook. Dude, you have hands and a brain, and I am sure you can figure out how to cook a simple meal without burning the house down.

3. Flirting with every other girl.

Flirting isn't bad all the time, harmless flirting is all right, but being with someone who flirts with nearly every other girl can be annoying and terribly frustrating if you have a girlfriend. Put yourself in your girlfriend’s shoes and wonder how it would feel if she would flirt back with every guy who dropped her a ‘hi’. Hurt much? Exactly, you have been doing the exact same thing. So, turn the tables and stop flirting when you already have a beautiful partner right beside you.

4. Refusing to do your part in cleaning the house

We get that you’re okay with the mess -- but we’re not. Show some consideration, and join in cleaning the house. Your girlfriend is not a maid. You also had a hand in making the hand dirty, also share in the work of making it clean.

5. Only wanting to watch dude movies/sports

She knows you are obsessed with sports and masculine movies because she watches them with you all the time. You should also join her in watching things that she likes, it is only fair.

6. Talking only about yourself

The only thing some men are good in talking about is themselves. They don't want to listen to anything their partners has to say, and this is pretty rude. Don't be completely self-centered.

7. Excluding us

“Guy time” is one thing; scheduling back-to-back outings with your friends six nights in a row without your girlfriend is another. Bring her along once in a while.

8. Leaving dirty dishes in the sink

Am I the only one who can’t stand to see cheese-encrusted plates -- lonely, neglected and in need of a serious bath -- sitting in the sink for days on end? At least take the time to rinse the food off. It also wouldn’t kill you to wash a few. Like, with soap.

9. Refusing to go grocery shopping with us

I am sure I am not the only one who hates grocery shopping, but I have to do it if I don't want to starve to death and I also need supplies. It won't do you any harm to also join us while we go shopping, you don't like it, we also don't. Only of you want to eat out for the rest of the week, or you don't want to eat at all, your choice.

10. Snoring

To be fair, this last one isn’t entirely your fault. Still, could you tone it down a little? We’re trying to sleep.

2016 has been an amazing year for superhero movie lovers like me. The year had the release of 8 superhero movies. Now if you are old enough to remember when the release of just 1 superhero movie in a year was a massive event, then you'll understand why 8 feels like a whole lot. There has been no greater time for the need of a hero, as the world faces the possible greatest threat ever to mankind (US president-elect), am just happy we can still have superheroes to give us hope.

2016 was a landmark year in this respect as all three of the major superhero movie universes – Disney’s MCU, Warner Bros’ DCEU and Fox’s X-Men universe – released two films apiece. The fact that we had a large number of releases didn't mean they all nailed it. I'd argue that less of the 2016’s superhero movies truly nailed it.

Now that we are not expecting the release of any other superhero movie this year, I can safely rank the 8 superhero movies released this year from the worst to the best. This is my ranking and if you feel any different, feel free to share yours in the comment box below.

8. Max Steel (October 2016)



If you've never heard of this movie, you are forgiven. I actually just heard about it last week, which is weird since it has this Transformers feel. This adaptation of the Mattel toy range had probably seemed like a surefire hit to the producers and executives of this movie, but unfortunately, the movie sunk without a trace. It couldn't even meet a quarter of its budget, how sad for a superhero movie.

The plot of the movie is plainly dumb (only God knows what they were thinking), the seven-year-old I saw the movie with thought it was someone playing ironman, just to tell you how the movie was basically a rip-off. Another thing that killed the movie, was the characters. The actors were so bland. Truth is, if you haven't seen the movie, you are better off that way.

7. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (June 2016)



This movie almost killed my childhood memories of watching TMNT cartoons. The producer Micheal Bay offended me, with the realisation of the characters, muddled storytelling and general Bayisms (e.g. leering over Megan Fox). The first movie didn't really buy me, but I was hoping they would do better with the sequel. They did try since Out of the shadows didn't have a high bar to match, it wasn't much of a surprise to me that the movie did better than its predecessor.

I am sorry to say this, but I don't think superhero movies are for Megan Fox, she just has a way of annoying me in these movies (Transformers, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, TMNT, TMNT: Out of the shadows). The movie is even stranger and crazier than the last one, with a bizarre plot that’s hard to get your head around just because it’s so nonsensical. The excessive action also means that such things as character depth are swept aside.

Unfortunately for TMNT fans, Out of the Shadows’ poor box office performance has led to the announcement that a third film is probably not in the works.

6. Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (March 2016)


This is one movie I am happy I didn't go see in the cinema. I literally danced when my friends got back and related the horrible experience of sitting for 151 minutes for this movie. After the horrible experience I went through after seeing Man of Steel, I was really happy I didn't go through that for a second time. But I couldn't help myself, I had to just watch the movie and enjoy seeing Superman again. One thing I got from the movie is that Warner Bros didn't learn to from Man of Steel criticisms. The movie as still dark, too grim and lacked a story. The fight choreography was poor, the movie dragged, that it took me two days to finish it.

This movie was a crushing let down since it was one of the most hyped superhero movies. But I am sure the producers don't really care since the movie pulled in a whopping $873.3 million from the box office. I just hope 2017'S Justice League will be a million times better than BvS.

5. Suicide Squad (August 2016)

I seriously don't know which is worse in BvS and Suicide Squad. They both were hyped and they both flopped. Suicide squad was one movie I was really excited to see since I love villains. I felt it was a movie that will be able to show us another side to some of our DC villains, but instead it just dragged on and on.

The movie had some characters that shouldn't have even been in the movie in the first place. What was Captain Boomerang contribution in the movie? The movie had too many characters that were just mumbled up. I didn't get to see joker as much as I would have liked. The villain was just an insult to other villains. The only character that stood out for me was just Harley Quinn. If not for her (and the money I paid to see the movie), am sure I would have walked out halfway through the movie.



4. X-men: Apocalypse (May 2016)


As it is, Apocalypse is comfortably the weakest of the First Class trilogy, a trilogy that I was only just beginning to like. Apocalypse was just a disappointment to X-men fans. The villain was not even scary, this is supposed to be a mutant that can bring the end of the world, yet it felt like a giant smurf trying to be mean. If you are looking for a decent popcorn-muncher to while away a couple of hours then you and see this movie, but really this movie didn't do it for me.

3. Doctor Strange (October 2016)



Welcome to magic and mysticism in a Marvel movie. If you've seen this movie, you might wonder why it falls to my number 3, well I guess that's just the way I feel, but no doubt this movie is a must watch for superhero movie lovers. When I found out one of my favourite English actors Benedict Cumberbatch, will be playing the main character, Dr Strange, I was a bit sceptical. But one thing I have learnt about him is that he can pull off the character of an arrogant genius anytime (see The Imitation Game).

The visuals of this movie are sick. Director Scott Derrickson delivers the most eye-popping Marvel movie yet, as Strange and his cohorts warp reality in a series of psychedelic, trippy action sequences. Visually, it’s probably the studio’s most exciting film yet.

I can't wait to see Dr Strange interact with the other Avengers in Infinity War.

2. Deadpool (January 2016)


I almost ranked this movie as my number 1 superhero movie of 2016, but I have to admit, there is one superhero movie that stole the show this year. Have you ever gone to see a movie, and weeks later you are still thankful that you saw the movie? That was how I felt after seeing Deadpool. This movie was the first superhero movie of the year, and it set the bar high in terms of both audience reaction and box office success. I didn't even know a character like Deadpool can have his own movie. His character was butchered in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, I wasn't really expecting anything from this character. But after seeing the trailer to Deadpool I knew I had to go see this movie.

Ryan Renolds plays the character of foul-mouthed, irreverent super human Deadpool since he is neither a hero nor a villain. The movie was rated R for a reason because Deadpool is the most foul-mouthed superhero/villain ever (Iron Man is sarcastic, not foul-mouthed). The director Tim Miller should be commended for making the most of the R-rating in some great action sequences.

It's safe to say that Deadpool has become the new face of the X-Men franchise.

1. Captain America: Civil War (April 2016)


There’s only one film that can be claimed as the best superhero movie of the year. Bringing just about every hero in the MCU together for an emotionally-resonant, fanboy or girl -pleasing punch-up, Captain America: Civil War was everything I hoped it would be. It’s tough to say whether it is the best Marvel movie so far, but it’s certainly up there.

This movie introduced me to the Black Panther (now I can't wait to see the movie) and a funny, witty spiderman. Chris Evans and Robert Downey Jr. both give terrific performances as the two friends brought into conflict by both their differing ideologies and their personal feelings for the Winter Soldier.

Earning comfortably over $1 billion at the global box office, Civil War stands as the highest-grossing film of the year. Obviously, all the previous movies helped to give it a boost, but what this really proves is that if you give the public a good film they’ll come to watch it.

Your friends are settling down, and you cant hep but feel its time to jump the broom. Maybe its the wedding pictures you are seeing on Instagram, or do you really want to marry your current partner? Check out these signs and see if you’re ready for marriage.

1. You know why you want to get married

Do you just want to be able to say you’re married, or do you really want to spend your life with your partner? Think about why you want to get married. What benefits will you get from marrying your partner, as opposed to continuing your relationship as it is? Ask yourself the hard questions and make sure you’re ready for marriage.

2. You want to plan a marriage, not a wedding

Are you thinking of getting married just because you want top plan a wedding? Weddings last several hours, but a marriage lasts forever. (Hopefully!) Don’t plan for one day—plan for the rest of your lives. Think about how your everyday life will be with your partner, even when you’re not the centre of attention.

3. You and your partner share a deep relationship

But if you’re getting married, you need to have a deep relationship. Deeper than just having fun all the time, going out every night, being carefree. You need to be able to tackle tough issues together.

4. You know and trust your partner

Don’t get married just because you’ve been dating for four years. Get married because you know your partner. You know their past and you know their hopes and dreams. You can imagine their reactions to certain things. You know all this and you still love them. Beyond that, you trust them. Trust is vital for a marriage, so make sure you can trust your partner completely.

5. You both don’t shy away from conflicts

Don’t just gloss over your problems and think to forget them will make them better. Work out any kinks in your relationship so they won’t blow up later. Don’t get married because you think it will solve a problem. Solve the problem first! If you can’t work out any issues, then you and your partner won’t be able to communicate effectively.

6. You make long-term plans together

Once you get serious and decide to commit to each other, you need to make plans together. What if your partner wants to travel the world? Are you OK with staying home alone, or would you go with your partner? Know what each of you wants, and make sure you’re OK with working through these goals and plans together.

7. Your family knows and likes your partner

If your family and friends don’t like your partner, where is your support system? Will you be alienated from your friends and not invited to family events? Also remember that your family and friends know you best, and if they think there’s a problem with your relationship, maybe you should listen.

8. Sometimes you look down at your left-hand ring finger and freak out because something is missing.

Your hand won’t feel normal until it’s weighed down by a gorgeous ring.

9. You can't imagine life without them

Overall, you’re in love with your partner. You can’t see yourself with anyone else. You can’t see yourself without your partner. If you know you can’t be happy with another person, and you’d be incredibly unhappy without your current partner, then let it go and enjoy your loving relationship and marriage!

Annoying people are everywhere. They are on your phone, in your email, on aeroplanes, and may even be sitting in the cubicle next to you at this very moment. Maybe they talk too loud and too often on their cell phones, or maybe they have an annoying habit of disappearing into the restaurant bathroom as soon as the check arrives. While you can’t control them, you can control how you deal with annoying people. Take a look at these 10 types of annoying people and see if you recognise anyone you know.

1. Empty Pockets

This annoying person loves the good life. Unfortunately, they can’t afford it. The person with the empty pockets will constantly borrow money, but make it look like an afterthought as in, “I forgot my wallet – can you get this and I’ll pay you back?” These annoying people will still find excuses so they won't have to pay you back, yet they still want to borrow more. I resemble your father ni.

2. The Braggart

These annoying people constantly have to tell you how great they are doing at work, how amazing their child is doing at school, even the fact that their dog got top honours at obedience school. No matter what good news that you have to share, The Braggart will always be able to one-up you and come up with even better news.

3. Mr Personal Information
These are some of the most annoying people at work. They constantly engage you in conversation about their personal lives and personal problems, offering way too much information. If this person is your superior, it can be even more uncomfortable. If you have to listen, do so politely and don’t offer any advice – they don’t want it. At the same time, don’t offer any personal information of your own as fodder. Remember, the closest relative of Mr Personal Information is Mrs Gossip.

4. Rampant BC senders

These people insist on sending you broadcast messages all the time. They keep sending you annoying long messages you will never read. Thank God for the delete button



5. Improper User of Cell Phones
This is quickly becoming one of the top annoying things people do. If you’ve ever been in line behind one of these types, you can overhear the most intimate details of their lives until they reach the checkout, at which time they will most likely continue their conversation. Not only is it annoying, but it is rude to the people they are dealing with. If you want to experience this full force, just enter a danfo bus in Lagos.

6. Airplane Irritator
The natural habitat of these annoying people is most commercial airliners, particularly if they are overbooked. The Irritator will plop right down next to you and start talking even before the plane takes off. They will tell you about their travel, what they’ve seen, and many irrelevant details of their personal lives as if you are their very closest friend. The best way to avoid annoying people like this is to head them off before they get started.
7. The Unwanted Advisor
These annoying people know absolutely everything about everything and are more than willing to share that knowledge with you. If you have children, they will regale you with advice about how to raise them properly whether they’ve had experience or not. They are the relationship experts, the doctors, they literally know everything. I tell you to say I need advisor ni?
8. Irritating In-Laws
You know them. They butt in at every available opportunity with impolite questions. When are you going to have children? What were you thinking when you bought that couch?

The best thing about these in-laws is that the person with the blood relationship has to deal with them, and that lets you off the hook most of the time.

9. The Annoying Salesperson
Annoying sales people are unavoidable at some point in your life. They are largely, but not always, focused on larger purchases such as cars, furniture etc. They treat you like it's not your money you want to pay. If you are irritated and can’t get any satisfaction by complaining to a manager, vote with your feet and walk out the door as fast as possible.

Annoying people are a part of modern life, and new technology is making the problem worse every day. If you have any of these annoying people in your life, a good offence is your best defence. Think of ways to avoid them before you get cornered in an annoying situation. Just because people are annoying doesn’t mean you have to put up with it.
Do you know any other type of annoying people? Kindly share in the comment box below, thank you.

While a lot has been said about sex, including the best moves in the bedroom, pre-intimacy, and the likes,it seems that one aspect of love-making has been ignored.

This is with regards to the moments that follow after having sex. I must confess, I have been a late beginner, or a bloomer, in this niche but I have learned the ropes through some valuable series of trials & errors. I say “valuable” because I realize that your entire bedroom performance or anything related to it can be best explored and understood through actual actions.

Even here, when I am proposing how to deal with the after-sex moments, the idea is just to provide you with some handy tips that have surfaced from my experiences, both good and bad.

Eventually, you would need to choose which of these make more sense to you and which ones are worthy of being tried. If you have already achieved absolute bliss in dealing with the after-sex moments, there is no reason you should seek a change!

This article is more attuned towards guys, like me, who have found these moments to be slightly awkward, not knowing what to do. In order to deal with such anxiety or confusion, read through the following:

Cuddling: Yup! It Works For Both

This is regarded as the standard thing to do—something that is supposed to score a lot of points with your girl and is deemed to present your caring side. Some guys might not be expressive or sensitive enough to understand how beautifully this thing works.

Unless you are a maestro between the sheets, chances are that your performance will vary every time you make love to her.
Sometimes, you might be found wanting in satiating her the way she was expecting and in such circumstances, cuddling acts like the back-up you want. In a way, it completes the deal, dissolving any apprehensions in your or her mind.

Even if you came out trumps during the act, it would be better to try the cuddle. Those who have tried it would vouch for the fact that being pressed against her, with both of you still warmer-than-usual and sweaty in that sexual high, is just priceless.

2.Talking—Depends Upon Your Mindset

I have heard many guys and read psychiatrists recommend having a conversation. However, I fail to understand its utility. Do you really want to start talking during the moments you are recuperating in a way? It really isn't recuperation but more like regaining your senses, with the sexual energy spent.

During that time, can you really make a conversation?
I have even read articles that propose the idea of planning for the next time. Maybe planning after an hour or so of having had sex could work but I really don’t get the idea of indulging in chitter-chatter immediately. I would like to come back to the Cuddle. Here, a few words, whispered into her ear, something akin to praising her performance, might actually work but talking—I don’t think so.

3. Being Slightly Physical Helps

This is like an extension of the Cuddle, it is rather useful and most folks are prone to missing it. The fact remains that your compliments for her or hers for your performance might not seem sincere at times. You need to express your happiness in a more convincing manner.

Here, simply stroking her or planting small kisses on her neck, the shoulder can work. I guess there are no standard guidelines that can tell you whether this will have the desired effect but I have realized one thing—if the lady was slightly hesitant about getting intimate or the sex ended with something that bothered her, this can act like an instant therapy.

4. Just Eat & Laugh in the Afterglow

This is something that should work for everybody, including the non-cuddly sorts. Just ensure you have something to eat. Place a few bars of chocolate or maybe a few cans of beer, chips, cookies, etc. Literally, anything works.

This is the easiest way to dissolve any awkwardness that might creep in when you are with somebody for the first time. A bite of anything sweet really feels good at this time since you have just exhausted yourself. Personally, I would recommend keeping something to drink, nearby.

These moments don’t have to be serious. Just eat and point out your own or her moves that went wrong! Eating and poking fun at each other while the afterglow is just setting in is perhaps the easiest way to handle this.

What not to do?

I guess anything that makes it look casual or too regular should be avoided. My list of things to avoid includes:

Immediately Rushing to Your Phone—as if a few unread messages or missed calls are going to spell disaster for you.

Tuning into the Television—as if what you just did wasn’t entertaining enough and now you need to divert your mind.

Rushing to the Bathroom—if you need to relieve yourself or if something went wrong, it is understandable but hiding in there, with a newspaper, is just cowardly and lame.

Concluding Thoughts
I have personally never had the opportunity to shower together or do something as elaborate as giving or getting a massage. I have only read and heard about these things. In terms of an after-sex activity, showering does seem like a worthy contender while a body massage just sounds tiring. I mean, if you have more energy to spend, why not initiate Round 2?

The final season of one of our favorite series Teen Wolf premiered yesterday, and it's with a heavy heart I write this. The sixth season of the hit supernatural series is to be divided into 2 sets of 10 episodes, a total of 20 episodes and it's expected to be an epic finale to our favorite supernatural beings.

If you haven't seen the season premiere, don't worry this article doesn't contain spoilers (I don't like spoilers also). Now, what are we to expect in this new season of Teen Wolf.

There are still so many things that need to happen before the McCall pack leaves Beacon Hills. The seniors in the pack are preparing to leave high school and head out to college.

All’s good in the town of Beacon Hills. In fact, it’s been that way for the last three months. As it stands, all the supernatural threats once plaguing Scott and his friends have vanished. However, everything changes when it’s suddenly not the threats vanishing, but the people.

We are going to be introduced to two new emerging villains: the Ghostriders and the Nazi werewolf. The Ghostriders happen to be the one who kidnaps people and wipe the memories other people have of them, so they happen to be gone forever. And my favourite character in the series Stiles happens to be the one to disappear in the pack.

When someone as integral to the group as Stiles is gone, what happens? How does everyone function? This is the question the final season of Teen Wolf is going to ask. The town may not need its heroes anymore, but do the heroes still need their friends? Can they survive after high school when they all split up and head off to college? What’s closure for this group of kids thrust into a fight they never asked to be a part of? How will Scott save Stiles if he can't remember who he is?

Of course, Tyler Posey (Scott McCall), Holland Roden (Lydia Martin), Dylan O'Brien (Stiles Stilinski), Dylan Sprayberry (Liam Dunbar), Shelley Hennig (Malia Tate), Cody Christian (Theo Raeken), and Khylin Rhambo (Mason Hewitt) have all been slated for returns. At Comic-Con, creator Jeff Davis revealed that Ian Bohen (Peter Hale) and J.R. Bourne (Chris Argent) will also be back.

Unfortunately, Arden Choo isn't returning to Teen Wolf, so we won't be getting Kitsune and Werewolf action, from Scott McCall and Kira Yukimura. Now this leaves the question:

How is Scott going to survive, since he just confessed that he is in love with her?

Are we going to get a clue of how her training with the skinwalkers is going (Even if there is no training)?

Also, we won't be seeing much of Stiles Stilinski, well because he happens to have disappeared. So less bromance between him and Scott McCall. This also reduces the possibility of a Stydia (Lydia and Stiles) reunion during the first half of the season.

Tyler Hoechlin won't also be returning, so we won't be getting our dose of Derek Hale in season 6.

A number of characters have left Teen Wolf with unfinished stories, I wonder if this season will help us understand what happened to characters like Isaac (Daniel Sherman) and Jackson (Colton Haynes).

Whatever the case may be, the series creator, Jeff Davis has promised us an intriguing and mesmerizing final outing for all willing to see this journey through to its end.

So we all still have 20 more hours to spend with the characters before saying goodbye to our favorite Werewolves, Werecoyote, Banshee, Kitsune and human from Beacon Hills.

Let me leave you with the amazing trailer of season 6.

There are so many reasons why men cheat they say, oh the female is doing something wrong. Oh, shes not good enough or maybe they just need to explore their options. I have never been a fan of an indecisive man but I fell for one tho. So my question is how do you recognize an Indecisive man(also known as a fuckboy).

Here’s 5 signs you are with an Indecisive Man i.e a fuckboy;

1. He lies way too much and he sucks with the lie, even when he’s being held at gun point he will never say the truth he will rather choose to die

2. Everyone around him is a relative or his sister’s childhood friend or a neighbor. Even worse his street friend 5 blocks from his mother’s house.

3. He makes you feel like you are the only one in the relationship. He can’t ever make a decision and even when you ask for his opinion on matters concerning your relationship he never knows. My sister at this point please just carry your load and go.

4. When y’all fight he’s comfortable with not talking for days. He doesn’t try to reach out to settle the matter and sometimes he even goes the extra mile to block you on all social media platforms lol, this is one chronic fuckboy behavior.

5. He’s always on your matter, checking your phone, over paranoid, doesn’t want you talking to other guys, lol he doesn’t want to be paid in his own coin. I hope I have been able to help one or two sisters with these few signs. Y’all are precious.

My extra quote of the day; Waste my time once, shame on you, Waste my time twice, biggest shame on me.

The enzymes and nutrients in raw honey give dull hair shine without weighing it down. Coconut oil penetrates the hair shaft to condition and smooth the cuticle and give your strands the lustre you crave.

Mix one tablespoon raw honey with two tablespoons coconut oil. Apply thoroughly to the bottom two-thirds of damp hair, starting at the ends and working up. Let sit for 20 minutes, and rinse well.

6. Sunburn Treatment
Honey restores hydration to the deepest layers of sun-exposed skin—and both honey and aloe vera contain powerful anti-inflammatories to calm burned skin and aid recovery.

Mix one part raw honey with two parts pure aloe vera gel. Apply to sunburned skin.

7. Exfoliator

You can exfoliate your skin using honey, once or twice a week. Mix one part baking soda and two part honey. Baking soda offers light exfoliation while the honey soothes and smooth’s the skin. You can use this to exfoliate all part of your body

You are thinking about marriage, and you are wondering how the girl you’re dating will differ from the woman you are going to marry.

When you are younger and not thinking about marriage, you might date a girl or woman based on how attractive she is. You probably are not bothered with the maturity and intelligence of the individual, all you know is you are attracted to her.

There is a difference between the girl you date and the woman that will end up being your Mrs – The words girl and woman cannot be used interchangeably and it does not have any relation with the biological age of a person.

What I refer to here is the level of maturity, stage of life and her vision regarding life. There are certain people who just never grow up and that highlights the differences between the girl you date and the woman you marry.

This does not mean that your woman won’t have those immature “girlish” tendencies or vice versa. But the excess of those tendencies is what can be defined as immaturity.

If you are married, you will have realized that the girl you dated is different from the woman you married. This does not mean she changed completely, it means that her priorities and perspective about life and marriage will improve in many ways. Hopefully, for the better.

Now, what makes her different? Here are 10 differences between the girl you dated and the woman you married.

1. The girl you date loves you for the financial support and security she can get from you. She always expects something expensive especially when she gives you a gift or does you a favour.

The woman you marry is with you because she believes in you and the fact that both you will be able to build a strong financial cushion together. She does things for you just because she loves you, not because she wants something in return.

2. The girl you date always puts herself first. She is not bothered about your career, your future or your vision in life. All she cares about is herself.

The woman you marry cares about your future and career as well as hers. She balances your plan and hers to make sure it works together and you both achieve your goals in life.

3. The girl you date is overly conscious about her appearance and the attention she gets from other men.

The woman you marry is only interested in being attractive to the man she married. She is not bothered about petty things and she is not narcissistic. She understands that real beauty emanates from within.

4. The girl you date doesn’t trust you enough to reveal are most guarded secrets.

The woman you marry will have a problem hiding things from you. She knows and believes that honesty is the best policy. She expects you to be understanding and mature, so she trusts you completely.

5. The girl you date believes she knows everything and that she is always right. She is not opened to learn new things.

The woman you marry is willing to learn new things, learn from her mistakes, and knows there is always room for improvement.

6. The girl you date is going to compare you to her ex, other men she knows or even celebrities.

The woman you marry knows you are already trying hard to be your best self and won’t compare you to anyone. She loves you for you and knows you can’t be someone else.

7. The girl you date isn’t considering a future with you. She is not planning to get married or start a family with you.

The woman you marry is excited about spending the rest of her life with you and can’t wait to start a family with you.

8. The girl you date will act like a kid and always throw tantrums. If she is angry or displeased, she will start acting aggressively or will give you the silent treatment.

The woman you marry will also get angry but she will be more matured the way she deals with her emotions. She is willing to talk to you about her issues and also try to work things out.

9.The girl you date believes that compromising means bowing down to a demand. She is not willing to compromise with you, it’s either her way or no way at all.

The woman you marry understands that compromise is necessary for a healthy marriage. She understands that things don’t always work out the way we imagine in life and is willing to compromise so as to have a healthy happy marriage.

10. The girl you date has to be entertained and will leave you once she gets bored.

The woman you marry is someone you can have fun with either relaxing, doing activities, or do nothing together and still enjoy each other’s company.

Lagos-based real estate classifieds start-up ToLet.com.ng today has raised a $1.2 million Series A round of funding from Frontier Digital Ventures.

“The new funds raised will be used to improve the platform’s technology offering to both property seekers as well as that used by listing agents. The rest of the funds will be channelled into improved marketing efforts and aggressive expansion across Nigeria over the next 12-18 months,” says To Let’s Chief Executive Officer, Fikayo Ogundipe.

ToLet.com.ng was founded in 2012 as Estanode.com by four young Nigerian graduates –Fikayo Ogundipe, Sulaiman Balogun, Dapo Eludire and Seyi Ayeni. It received $230,000 in seed funding from Jason Njoku’s Tech company accelerator Spark.ng in 2013, and subsequently rebranded to ToLet.com.ng. Since then, the real estate classifieds start-up has quietly grown into one of the leading and recognizable online property portals in Nigeria.

“Our Agents are much happier to stick with us because, unlike competitors who use subscription models, we collect commissions, which essentially makes our service a performance-based one and ensures ‘we don’t get paid unless our agents get paid’. The commission fee is the model locally operated among Nigerian real estate agents. Our research showed that Nigerian real estate agents prefer the model of sharing commissions on closed deals as against paying subscriptions that don’t have guaranteed returns,” says co-founder Sulaiman Balogun.

From inception till date, ToLet.com.ng has facilitated over 8 million dollars in transactions value and currently boasts of roughly 20,000 listings online from a growing number of just over 3,500 real-estate agents.

Despite a recession being officially declared by the Nation’s Statisticians, the Real Estate Services in the Second Quarter of 2016 still grew by 2.12%. The contribution to nominal GDP in the Second Quarter of 2016 was 8.64%. Which only further validates the company’s belief in brighter days ahead. ToLet.com.ng’s mission is to be the largest property vertical in Africa by 2020.

“We are super excited to be making this investment into ToLet.com.ng, and look forward to being part of helping fuel their next stage of accelerated growth. We have full confidence in the ability of the founding team to continue with the awesome job they have already started and we look forward to the consolidation of their position as the Number One property classifieds portal in Nigeria,” says Shaun Di Gregorio, founder and CEO of Frontier Digital Ventures.

Frontier Digital Ventures is a Malaysia-based investor in leading classifieds companies in emerging markets. Last year it invested $500,000 in Ghanaian real estate classifieds start-up MeQasa and has made several investments across frontier markets including Panama’s general classifieds Encuentra24.com and Pakistan based property website Zameen.

Not really a bad idea though. Just another way of reducing distance and improving on our communication skills. #JustSaying

Owning a home is superb and awesome giving you that fulfilled feeling of not bothering about rent. It also saves you from some annoying landlords, most especially "Lagos Landlords".

It is also a means of avoiding quarrels with different personalities of tenants.

Aside from that, owning a home is also a big lifestyle change.

Everyone loves being a home owner, but I’m also here to argue when it makes sense to rent instead of buy too. It’s actually a big commitment you shouldn’t take levity.

So here are five big reasons why you should rent, not buy.

1. You want flexibility.

I think that this is the go-to argument for renting vs. buying.

Even a 12-month lease is more flexible than a 30 year mortgage. If you plan on relocating soon (for work, for family, or just because), renting is the way to go.

Have to move on short notice? Many landlords will allow you to buy out of your lease or sublet if you need to break your lease agreement. In experience, this is much easier than trying to sell your house.

2. You aren’t responsible for maintenance.

If you aren’t that handy with a wrench, you can rest easy knowing that your landlord should take care of any repairs your rental property needs.

When you own a home, it becomes your responsibility to fix, replace, and pay for those repairs yourself. And you can bet that any DIY (Do It Yourself) mishaps you make will mean calling in (and paying) a professional.

Does renting cost more? Sure.

But as my friend Mike said, “you pay for the luxury of not having to worry about those things.”

3. You have an irregular income.

Irregular incomes can be a huge deterrent for home ownership.

Although mortgage payments are as consistent as monthly rent, and in certain cities owning can be more affordable than renting, you don’t have to worry about property taxes or escrow payments as a renter.

Since you’re not responsible for maintenance or other upkeep, you’re less likely to drain your emergency fund on your apartment. This makes renting a surprisingly helpful strategy for saving money for other expenses.

4. You want to skip your commute.

As a content curator, blogger and freelance writer, I am super lucky to have the ability to work from home, but I know some of you are still braving traffic every day.

If you are spending hours each day trapped in the car commuting to work, you could potentially save big by renting.

But how? Consider how much money you spend on gas each month, not to mention the time or strain on your vehicle.

If you work in an area with an apartment complex or rental homes nearby, consider moving closer to your office. The flexibility of renting (see number 1) will allow you to do this!

Beyond the savings in gas, it’ll drastically reduce the amount of time from work to your bed at the end of the day. Although you may miss out on the charms of suburban living, renting can also give you the opportunity to live in places you wouldn’t typically consider. You may find that you love city life!

5. You aren’t financially ready to buy.

If you’re hesitant about buying a home, you probably should rent. Homes are a huge financial responsibility and can end up costing even more if you aren’t prepared or don’t do your research. Think about it this way: the upfront costs alone of buying a home are usually tens of thousands of dollars.

Compare that to the upfront costs of renting, which typically include security deposits, pet deposits, and any move-in fees.

Both are expensive, sure, but home ownership is much more so on the front end.

Before you buy a home you typically need to have plenty of savings as well as a stable job and good credit. While you work on achieving these goals, renting can be a great option for you.

The emotional roller coaster that follows a breakup is scarier than any ride at Six Flags Great Adventure.

Your heart goes through ups and downs. There are fleeting moments of empowering independence, followed by heart-wrenching moments of pure loneliness.

It’s a juxtaposition nobody wants to be caught in, but it definitely sparks some serious soul searching.

After taking off your seatbelt and (cautiously) stepping off the roller coaster of heartbreak, you may finally be ready to give somebody else a chance.

In order to do so, you must properly evaluate what you need to do for yourself before hooking up with someone new.

A wave of darkness is the automatic “buy one get one free” that comes with a breakup. It’s more than normal to experience sadness and fall into a personal bubble that nobody around you can pop.

Allow a short amount of time to feel sorry for yourself. It’s healthy… in moderation.

Step 1: Throw yourself a (short-lived) pity party.

It’s clichéd, but you’re allowed. A good rom-com has the ability to cure most emotional wounds. Gather some friends, crack open some wine and indulge in something gluttonous.

You deserve it. Give your heart (and your hips) some love.

Step 2: Put some pep in your step.

Now that you’ve allotted some time to absorb the pain, it’s time to do something for you, and only you!

Wake up and get those endorphins going. Not only is starting your day with a workout a proactive step in healing from the trauma of a breakup, but the endorphins from the workout will also help reduce stress and improve your self-confidence.

If exercise isn’t really your thing, that’s OK too! Sign up for something out of the ordinary.

Push outside of your comfort zone. You may even find a hidden talent or a new passion. Take an art class, experiment with the ins and outs of pole dancing, learn to cook. Do this for yourself!

Step 3: Indulge in autonomous pleasure.

Yes, I’m telling you to masturbate. To be autonomous means to act independently or to have the freedom to do so.

And, yes, I am implying that you can explore whatever you would like to with your hands. Learn about the world of self-love and what it can provide for your sense of self.

Masturbation is one of the best ways to discover what you do and don’t enjoy with a partner.

Step 4: Learn to let go.

As humans, it’s only natural for us to hold on to feelings, whether they are good or bad.

After a relationship, we hold on to the good and bad aspects of the past and allow them to poison our being. When you finally realize it’s time to let go, you’ll be able to move on.

This step of the evaluation process doesn’t happen overnight, and it doesn’t happen at the same pace for any two people.

When you break up with someone, you’re opening yourself up to criticism and comments about what you did “wrong” in the relationship.

This can either be a pivotal point of self-growth or can send you into an unfathomable depth of shame.

Everybody has unique quirks. These quirks make us who we are and nobody has any right to tell us there is something wrong with them.

Step 5: Transform this new independence into acceptance.

Steps one through four were all about you as an individual. If you are ready, it may be time to attempt accepting somebody else into your heart.

Just because you are opening your emotional self to somebody else doesn’t mean you’re letting go of the person you’ve become through your journey.

The roller coaster of a breakup is bound to put you through a whirlwind, but eventually the indescribable feeling in your chest will settle, the butterflies in your stomach will fly away and you’ll wake up emotionally revitalized as an improved version of yourself.

Waist beads also known as (Ileke idi in Yoruba) or (Jigida in Hausa) are most popular in the northern and southern part of Nigeria, they are jewellery worn as the name implies around the waist. They are worn to highlight feminism and beauty to draw tremendous attention to the hips and bum.

The female buttocks represent many things in Africa as well as sentiments as it can be a determining factor for a man when choosing a partner.

I have always been fascinated by jewelries but I got hooked on waist beads when I saw it on my neighbour’s baby and trust me I was mesmerised with the beautiful array of blended colours, and my first thought was that when I start having children of my own.

I would put waist beads on them considering I wanted not less than a dozen children at that time, I really could envision that and because I thought it was jewellery for only babies.

Imagine how excited I was when I learnt I could also wear waist beads. I bought my first strand of waist bead with my food allowance while I was in junior secondary school, it was hardly visible but it felt like I had finally become a woman, not in a sexual context though, I just felt waist beads are supposed to be a part of my image as a female.

There is a certain pride and confidence of a waist bead wearer especially the first few weeks of wearing it, I am sure people who put on waist beads can totally relate. It is the same feeling a woman has when she is wearing a new and very sexy lingerie, no one looking at her knows what is wearing except her and that feeling is like knowing the secrets of the whole world.

Fast forward to a couple of days later, after avoiding my mum seeing me naked successfully I was caught unaware that morning and when I heard the what is this in her “are you crazy” tone, at that point I knew without doubt I had to say good bye to my beautiful beads.

I got a lecture that day about how it is only promiscuous girls that wear beads and that I was too young to be interested in things like that.

What really are waist beads?

Waist beads are believed to possess great erotic appeal and the power to arouse sexual desire from the opposite sexual desire and like my mum.

So many other people believe it to be a sign of promiscuity.

Some believe it is not Godly and can be used to trap men into unwanted relationships.

Others believe it helps in forming a rounder buttocks, wider hips and a more narrow waist.

I believe it is just one of the numerous ornaments we have to adorn our body and it is just a matter of whether or not you like it.

There are no restrictions on waist beads as far as I am concerned and that they come in different sizes and colours for preference so if you are one of the people who have always loved them from afar or you have been skeptical about trying it, what are you waiting for? I can guarantee that you will not want to stop.

Now go beautify that waist!!

If you’re in a relationship for a while, find new ways to spice up your sex life and keep it interesting. Having sex with a new partner may feel great; but there’s nothing better than getting innovative in bed with someone you love and understand completely.

Below are 15 sexy ways we feel might help spice up your sex life.

1. Have an affair with you partner

Plan a date with each other and pretend like both of you are having an affair. You’ll never realize how sexy it feels until you try it. Meet each other in a restaurant and seduce each other like two lusty lovers.

2. Role play in bed

Dressing up as someone else is an easy way to enact all your secret fantasies without having an affair. Try being a doctor and a patient, a professor and student.

3. Add more pre-intimacy

One of the best ways to have great sex is by focusing on pre-intimacy. Spend 15 more minutes on making each other Hot before having sex. Both of you will end up having better sex. Caress and compliment each other’s bodies during those 15 minutes.

4. Make sex an impromptu, unpredictable act

As hard as it may seem, avoid planning ahead for sex or scheduling time for sex unless both of you are on very busy schedules.

5. Feel sexy

Look good and start working out if you have to

Pamper yourselves with fragrant scrubs, sexy lingerie, and get yourself a new haircut, wear good clothes. Feel sexy, and you’ll look sexy.

6. Surprise each other sexually

Surprise your partner into a sexual high now and then. Surprise him by receiving him naked when he comes home, or tell him that you’re not wearing your panties under the short skirt when both of you are out having dinner.

7. Think beyond the bed.

There are many sexy places to get naughty besides the bed. Think kitchen, couches, bathroom, backyard, or a pool. Get innovative and the sexual rewards will be more pleasurable.

8. Take off on a sexy vacation now and then.

Pick a vacation spot that both of you would like, be it a crowded sex resort or a beautiful, idyllic paradise island. And spend all vacation thinking of nothing but sexy thoughts.

9. Sexy texts and calls.

Don’t wait for your partner to be around to seduce them. Send a few sexy photos in the middle of the day and tease your partner into wanting more when both of you get together at night.

10. Watch porn

Sometimes, watching porn can help both of you get into the mood and have a better time making love while watching another couple making out on the screen.

11. Fool around

Don’t wait for some alone time to make out with each other. Be affectionate with each other all the time, and take affection to a whole new level now and then. Kiss your partner when they’re on the phone with someone else, or take their pants off and give them an oral in the middle of a phone call.

12. Make some noise

Moaning in bed or whispering sexy nothings is a huge turn on that can’t be explained. Talk to each other in bed and you’ll arouse your partner in no time.

13. Create sexual memories

Try something new all the time. Have sex in a car or on a beach while on a vacation, skinny dip or even with another couple in bed. As long as you create new and exciting memories all the time, sex can never ever get boring.

14. Use mirrors

Use full length mirrors alongside your bed to heighten your sexual experience. You can have sex really close to the mirror if you want to recreate a foursome sexual fantasy. Watch yourself or imagine another couple.

15. Sexual setting

Design your bedroom to revolve around sex. Use fragrances and candles, and the perfect cushions to make lovemaking feel like a sexy luxury.

This article is controversial and it will be based on my opinion.

Once they get to a certain age even if it is completely unnecessary.

It’s not ‘socially acceptable’ for women to wear bras. Bras are very uncomfortable, after all. It’s just socially acceptable for women not to show the shape of their nipples through a thin top. You could be an AA small bust but this will still be necessary because female nipples are sexualised and small boobs still have them.

So this would be socially less acceptable even though she’s small:

I have 100’s of bras, and pick one from my collection to wear…once a month. Just because it lifts you up a little and looks quite pretty with all those patterns and frills and makes you feel good, even if no one else will see it.

But lets face it, they’re very uncomfortable. Even the lacy ones with less padding, because what’s with all those straps, someone NEEDS TO INVENT SOMETHING MORE PRACTICAL.

But don’t despair, if you don’t want men to stare and women to turn their noses up, and you’re anything below a C, you can easily get away with these, which I wear all the time to avoid social suicide:

Or try frilly tops or tops with inserts so nothing peaks out

Since the first case of Zika Virus in Uganda 1947, sectors and different NGO’s has embarked on different methods and means to curb the disease.

To combat the outbreak of Zika virus, JCI Lagos Royale in partnership with Contagious 128 Media and the World Health Organization (WHO) has set up an online campaign tagged #NoFearZika to create awareness about the disease.

The campaign is focused on mobilising citizens via social media to adopt best practices that will help protect them and their families from contracting the disease.

These practices are necessary to help slow, the spread of the deadly disease and eventually stop the virus. The #NoFearZika digital campaign is particularly geared towards the forthcoming Olympic games in Brazil whose 15% of her population is currently infected with the disease.

Working with the partners on this campaign, the #NoFearZika campaign focuses on education about the virus to reduce misinformation and ignorance about how the virus spreads, how it can be controlled and how to curtail it even after Rio 2016 travellers return to their various countries.

For Details on how to control Zika Virus is available on Contagious128.com/zika-virus or www.who.int

According to Google Trends, the Trumps have surpassed the Kardashians to become the most searched family in America, off the heels of the 2016 Republican National Convention.

The chart below shows the recent uptick in Google searches for the Trump family.

This trend is not surprising, either. After all, the RNC was more of a showcase for the Trump family than it was for just the Republican nominee himself.

The convention’s first night was marked by Melania Trump delivering her controversial speech. It was book-ended by Ivanka Trump introducing her father with the most notable, and somewhat ironic, speech from a Trump family member.

In between, Donald Trump’s daughter Tiffany spoke, along with his sons Eric and Donald, Jr. The prominence of the family within the program of the convention prompted comparisons to the Kennedy family.

I see a Trump-heavy Cabinet.
Kinda thought that ended with Kennedy.

There’s no doubt, though, out of all the family members, Donald Trump’s speech was still the most important and the most ominous.
