Men of God in Nigeria are known for different things. Some are controversial and mostly specify in prophesying things that have already happened.
Samuel Adeyemi, the senior pastor of Daystar Christian Center not only preaches on the altar but also changes lives through his motivational speeches and life coaching talkshows he hosts on radio stations within and outside the country.
He has also authored several books some of which include: Nigeria Of My Dreams, Generation Z+ and We Are The Government.
Impressed by his lifestyle and values, a Nigerian man, Davis King, took to his Facebook to express the admiration and respect he felt. He says:
This is not hero worship and today is not his birthday or anything like that. I am only celebrating excellence because I know it inspires others…
Let us know your opinion on the Facebook post in the comments section.
Not everytime complain about the struggles of Lagos, sometimes find beauty in everything around and show it to the world.
25 year old Oshomah Abubakar chose to portray different sides to Lagos from a creative, yet hilarious angle.
He draws his inspiration from the hustle that Lagos brings and also the constant drive to always be better than yesterday.
Lagos Traffic
The struggles of boarding a Lagos Danfo.
The National Theatre reimagined as a head gear.
The Ikeja bridge boys.
And this face everybody makes when NEPA strikes.
The brand manager-in-training at Minimie noodles and Computer Science graduate from Ajayi Crowther University is a also a photographer and writer on other days.

Roses are red, violets are blue, the month of Febaery is here and we are ready too!
FeBAEry = February = Valentine’s day.
The question is are you ready for Valentine’s day? These comments show some Nigerian’s are already feeling about the day of the bae!
While others sleep, the search for an already trained boyfriend has begun.
As I haven't any viable Valentine's Day plans, I am looking to lease an already trained boyfriend. If you have one you're not using, DM me
There are only a few people in Lagos who will claim to never have been to a ‘buka’ or ‘mama put’ place. For those that are regulars and those that want to try them out, we made a list of top places to try out. Thank us later.
1. White House – Sabo Yaba
This place serves the whole of the Yaba area and beyond, people are addicted to it. Wives come to buy meals for their husbands and the home here. Convinced yet?
2. Ajisafe – Ikeja

They have this rice and stew combination that will make you keep going back for more. They have a variety of options and it is usually very hard to stay fully awake after you eat here. Satisfying.
3. Ghana High – Lagos Island

This place gives the island people a very good alternative to going all the way to the mainland for buka food. Ghana high is usually filled with white shirt and suit clad workers hustling to get their favorite dishes.
4. Olaiya – Surulere

When it is time for lunch, it’s pretty much a struggle to get a parking space anywhere around here. The amala and gbegiri with ewedu here tastes like whatever the inventors made.
5. Amala Yahoo – Ogudu
Food here is so good they named it after food. This is the place to go to if you have an addiction or craving for Amala and you want to satisfy it properly.
6. Saudi Food Palace – Bariga
This place crawls with sweet and enjoyable dishes. It’s a little hard to stay away from Saudi once you go there. If it is very close to you, you would probably not want to cook for yourself ever again.
Looking for designer rice? Or stew to blow your mind away? This is your place. It’s been tried and trusted, the lines there at lunch time will convince you.
8. Defence Car Park Canteen/First Bank Amala – Marina
It’s fondly called First Bank amala. People don’t bother about the name just the food that comes out of the kitchens and the hot, steaming amala. It’s a struggle to eat here and keep your clothes clean. Food so good you want to stay at the canteen till they close.
9. Belgium – Mile 2
Some people just call this place Amala Belgium. Amala so good they had to name it after a foreign country. The food here tastes better than anything you may have had. Of course, they have their signature taste.
One of the things that has accompanied Nigeria’s vast cultural diversity is stereotypes.
Naturally, stereotypes aren’t necessarily true and can draw lines of division. Sometimes they are hilarious and this artist brought the hilarious side of some of these common stereotypes into his art.
The 22 year old graduate of Geophysics from Covenant University uses the Japanese animation, Chibi art style, to create his art pieces.
The Chibi art style originated from the appearance of the Japanese anime characters and has been used to create several other graphic art.
Ajoku David Uchenna shares tribal bonds from the Igbo and Yoruba tribes of Nigeria and got inspired by the common cultural stereotypes on Nigerian Twitter.
He aspires to create more art in preparation of a comic series similar to Archie and Juggle head, done Naija style, of course.
Bayo, The Yoruba Demon.
Emeka, The Igbo demon.
All his characters bear tails because he believes that demons aren’t necessarily Yoruba and that Nigerians generally love to live the baby boy/girl lifestyle, wearing nice trad and turning up at Owambe parties.
.. And this one for Owambe lovers.
David also doubles as a photographer and works at a Nigerian NGO ACSI when he isn’t creating art.
We promise we’re not throwing shade but Rihanna looks like she has questions…
1. Why doesn’t Rihanna look impressed? Did the album not tap?
2. Is she asking herself if she should have asked Adele to feature on one track?
3. Or maybe she’s asking herself if she was truly invited to Toolz’s wedding.
4. Perhaps she’s asking herself if she can get into the headphone business and clean out like Dr Dre.
5. Maybe, just maybe, she’s asking herself how her Nigerian fans will afford her album at N300 to the Dollar.
6. Could Donald Trump actually become the President of America?”. If so, will she be deported?
7. Or could she be wondering if Arsene Wenger will EVER buy a striker?
8. It’s possible she’s wondering if Lil’ Kesh should actually have won the Next Rated award at the Headies.
9. Or could it be that she’s wondering if she got some of Dasuki’s money by mistake?
Whatever it is sha, we’re eagerly awaiting this album. Hopefully, it’s amazing.
So what do you think Rihanna is asking herself in this picture?
Friend zone aka the “you will never be bae zone” should have a lot of warning signs for would-be occupants of the zone. See, we are the good guys and know just how painful it is to be cast into that zone.
So here are 12 signs that indicate that a girl has friend-zoned you completely.
1. When she tells you she isn’t ready for a relationship then goes on to date someone else two weeks later.
Smh!
2. If she says “God forbid” and makes this face whenever the topic of both of you being in a relationship comes up.
Yup! She is highly disgusted by the idea of dating you.
3. When you suddenly become her brother or any member of her family.
Sorry, bro!
4. Are you helping her pick dresses for dates with other guys?
As per chief stylist.
5. Or has she called you her “best bestie in the whole world”.
But….
6. When she replies “Awww” after you just sent her a 3-paged epistle on how beautiful she is.
Eh yaa!
7. When she starts tell you of a guy that she likes and that guy isn’t you.
So much evils.
8. Or she tells you she wishes to find a guy like you.
But still refuses to make you her bae.
9. When she tweets “I am single to stupor” and you guys have been talking for almost a year.
Very tragic!
10. And she feels really comfortable telling you all the gross things like how bloody her period feels like.
Dis tew much. Forreal.
11. When she starts asking you for relationship advice.
Because, you are Dr Phil and bestie rolled in one.
12. And when she refers to you as the guy she could have kids with if she happens to be unmarried at 40.
