  • Once in a while, haters come around and try to spoil people’s happiness with their bad belle, glory be to God, they always fail.

    But you see, for petty people like some of us, when haters show their faces, it’s important to drag them for filth.

    We heard this amebo of a bride that took her entire bridal party to Shoprite just to prove a point to her haters.

    According to the gist, one bad belle rival that showed her pepper worked at Shoprite, and this bride wanted to let the world know who the winner is.

    The admin’s caption ati she wanted to show her competition that she has won. I have cried!! ???

    We can only wonder what transpired between them.

  • Two years ago, talented Nigerian photographer and artist, Ike Ude, moved back  to the country and of course, he was captivated by the awesomeness that is Nollywood-the 2nd largest film industry in the world.

    In October of that same year (2014), he photographed and created stunning portraits of Nollywood actors, producers and directors, in a beautiful photo series aimed at celebrating the beauty of Nollywood

    This amazing work of art, ‘Nollywood Portraits: A Radical Beauty’, has gained recognition and will be showcased at the Museum of Contemporary Photography at Columbia College Chicago from October 20th of October to the 23rd of December.

    It’s amazing how Nollywood is gradually receiving all the recognition and exposure it deserves.

    You can watch his campaign video for the exhibition here.

  • Whenever the name  ‘Shekau’ is mentioned, the picture of the loud-mouthed leader of despicable terrorist group, Boko Haram, only comes to mind.

    The most interesting fact, however, is how Shekau has come back to life after the Nigerian Army has reported his death more than 3 times since the onslaught against Boko Haram started in 2011.

    To be fair, in 2016, the Nigerian Army has made commendable efforts to bring an end to insurgency in North Eastern Nigeria. In fact, some of the people who fled the war are returning to Borno and a few schools have been re-opened.

    Although they reported his death or serious injury in August, he recently released a video claiming he was well and alive.

    Na wa o! Is he Lazarus?

    How many lives exactly does he have abeg?

    Please, men and women of the Nigerian Armed Forces, wyd?

    He needs to make up his mind if he’s going to die or not because this his resurrection game has become really boring.

  • Initially thought to be a Secret Service agent, Dr Oladotun Okunola, has been spotted alongside U.S presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton’s campaign trail.

    Following Hillary’s unfortunate stumble during the 9/11 memorial service, Dr Oladotun was one of the people who helped in restoring her health.

    Dr Oladotun, who was trained in Howard University, currently works in collaboration with Neuroscience Center of Northern New Jersey, to provide specialised care in epilepsy, clinical neurophysiology, and sleep medicine.

    Although Americans are currently raising questions concerning Hillary’s health, we couldn’t be more proud to see one of our own doing such a great job in saving people’s lives.
