Teyana Taylor wins Golden Globe
#jaiyeorie
Teyana Taylor has added a major milestone to her evolving career, winning her first Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress. The win placed Teyana among a new generation of actors being taken seriously beyond their original lanes.
What made the moment resonate wasn’t just the award, but the quiet fullness of it.
Teyana’s journey has never followed a straight line — it has moved through reinvention, pauses, and growth that wasn’t always visible to the public. This win feels less like a sudden arrival and more like timing finally catching up with effort. It raises a gentle question worth sitting with: how many people are still becoming, even when the world assumes their story is already written?
But what made the moment resonate wasn’t just the trophy — it was the words she spoke into the world. Teyana closed her speech by looking beyond herself, dedicating her success to “brown sisters and little brown girls,” reminding everyone that softness is not a liability, depth is not too much, and light doesn’t need permission to shine. That message — put gently yet boldly — went beyond an awards stage and into the quiet places where people carry their own dreams. It asked something tender and profound: how do we hold our own experiences of struggle and hope as reasons not just to win, but to open doors for others once we walk through them?

#jaiyeorie
Toyin Lawani has called out Euracare, a Lagos-based hospital over alleged complications she experienced following a surgical procedure at the facility.
The businesswoman and CEO of Tiannah Empire called out the hospital on Sunday in a series of posts on her Instagram page.
Narrating her experience, the mother of three stated that she visited the private clinic for “spine surgery” but lost the use of her legs and had lung infection after spending almost N100 million at the hospital.
While threatening to sue the hospital when she’s strong, she wrote:
“Euracare Hospital your cup is finally full, shebi I told you people I don’t have your time yet.
Don’t worry just wait for me. I’m coming.
“Every time i say if U hv health issues in Nigeria & you make it out Alive just thank your stars,
They feel the comment is to berate Nigerian hospitals,
I saw one mumu person saying trash about me last week all cause I was speaking from experience, I just ignored,
U go spend close to 100m for hospital & them go still mismanage your health,
They thought I was joking when I said I was going to sue,
But I said they should just wait, when I’m stronger ✌️,
Most of this hospitals just front with white people & the after care is shii✌️
Still suffering the consequences from euracare right now 😤 na another thing u go find go there, na another thing dem go carry put for ur hand ,
I kept Asking myself why I did my spine surgery implant in Nigeria,
Till today I still can’t speak well or walk well,
I had complications started bleeding in my lungs ,
Had to be taken back into the theatre the next day ,
To reoperate again, before i know i stopped breathing,
They had to puncture my lungs & they destroyed my vocal cords ,
I remember a night I was given 2 injections & my heart seized like seriously guys i couldn’t breathe,
😤@prettydammy2 @segun_wealth witnessed it ,
her hubby had to threaten them,
Wo the trauma I faced in that hospital for months I still can’t get over it till date ,
I’m Still in & out of hospital till date due to this,
They won’t even care if it’s their mismanagement, U will still pay.
I lost the use of my two legs after I was sent home & I ended up back in that hospital again ,
I had to call the ent doc in UK,
He then told them to operate for the 3rd time to take the tracheotomy tube out from my lungs and see if I can breathe myself without it,
Wo after that surgery, I was on next flight d next day to UK with my family,
When I got here, the doctors told me i had to redo another surgery again & said
I had infection in my lungs,
When they showed me the big lumps they brought out after, I was in shock 😳
U mean after 3 surgeries in that same hospital back to back , yet i still had to hv another one when I got to uk,
Its just so shameful,
See the statement is not said Enough

#KOF👸.”
She added:
“PART2 of WHAT MY EYE SAW AT EURACARE ✌️😤

Bath myself again ,
And I’m still in therapy for speaking till now .
When I tell people I’m dealing with trauma they don’t understand me at all,
This traumatic experience changed my whole entire life completely,
How I see things or even people.
I just appreciate life more and tend to let go of so many things cause wo your life can just go in a sec ✌️
NIGERIAS HEALTH CARE SYSTEM NEEDS REGULATION
Anybody from abroad can have money and come open hospital in Nigeria as a business & do as they wish.
They will use international standard to lure clients.
I have proof to show I came out from my surgery without no hole in my lungs and if @segun_wealth didn’t raise alarm about the swollen neck they wouldn’t still notice,
It was after then I noticed I had difficulty breathing.
Till now I still need a walking stick to support myself,
Wo the story of that hospital is long o .
I just had to first save my life ,
I promised them when I’m well and sound they will hear from me,
But seeing @chimamanda_adichie story today triggered me to speak up,
So that so many people can be saved 🙏🙏🙏🙏
When I said I spent almost 100m I wasn’t joking. I still have my receipts from Euracare .
Euracare is like a business center ,
Most of the doctors there are not even permanent doctors,
They come perform surgeries and go ✌️
#FUNFACTS
#KINGOFALLQUEENS
#KOF 👑”
Lawani broke her silence after renowned author, Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, accused the same hospital of medical negligence that resulted in her 21-month-old son’s death on Wednesday.
Reacting to Chimamanda Adichie’s allegation, the Lagos state government ordered a full investigation into the incident.

Oprah Winfrey Opens Up About Unexpected Changes She Experienced After Using Weight Loss Drugs
#jaiyeorie
Oprah Winfrey has spoken candidly about the unexpected effects she experienced after using GLP-1 weight-loss medications, a class of drugs that includes Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro.
The media mogul, 71, was recently featured in an exclusive interview with People Magazine, during which she discussed her weight loss and her new book, “Enough: Your Health, Your Weight and What It’s Like to Be Free.”
According to Daily Mail, Winfrey began taking a GLP-1 medication in 2023 as a “maintenance tool” alongside diet and exercise but attempted to quit just six months in to see if she could lose weight without it.
Regardless of her diet and exercise routines, the show host said she still gained back 20 pounds after stopping the drug. While she has not revealed the specific medication, she has credited it with helping her lose more than 40 pounds and calming what she described as constant “food noise.”
She shared:
“It’s going to be a lifetime thing. I’m on high blood pressure medication, and if I go off the high blood pressure medication, my blood pressure is going to go up. The same thing is true now, I realize, with these medications. I’ve proven to myself [that] I need it.”
In a new interview, Winfrey said the medication led to several changes she did not anticipate.
One of the most notable is that she completely stopped drinking alcohol. She explained that she no longer has any desire for it, despite previously being able to drink heavily.
Research suggests GLP-1 drugs may reduce cravings by affecting dopamine-related reward pathways in the brain, which are linked to habits such as drinking. Studies have shown reduced alcohol consumption among users of these medications.
Winfrey also revealed that she now works out almost every day, saying she feels sluggish when she doesn’t exercise. She currently exercises up to six times a week, combining hiking, weight training and treadmill workouts.
According to her, the medication helped shift her mindset around food and weight. She said she no longer blames herself or feels the need to punish her body, adding that she feels healthier and more energetic than before.
However, Winfrey acknowledged that after briefly stopping the drug, she regained some of the weight she had lost, reinforcing her view that GLP-1 medications may require long-term use.cades of public struggles with weight, including restrictive diets and extreme calorie reduction.
Winfrey revealed that her default weight, at 211 pounds, was not healthy, as she was pre-diabetic and had high cholesterol.
At her highest, she said she weighed 237 pounds in 1992. While she has stated a goal weight of 160 pounds, she has not disclosed her current weight.
Winfrey said she hopes her story helps others understand that obesity is not simply about willpower, especially for those with genetic risk factors.
She encouraged people to seek accurate information and make informed choices, whether or not they choose to use medication.

‘Stop Sending Your Sons And Daughters To Live With Priests’ – Catholic Priest, Chidi Philip Warns Parents As He Gives His Reasons
#jaiyeorie
A Catholic priest, Chidi Philip has warned Nigerian parents to stop sending their young daughters and sons to live with priests for “training”.
The young Reverend Father said this is necessary to avoid what he calls “mistakes”.
According to him, nobody is perfect, priests are human, families are human, mistakes happen but there is one mistake parents really must stop making -sending their children to go and live permanently with priests “for training” to become a priest.
He added that keeping children away from the parish rectory is a way to protect the children, the priests, and the church.
In his words:
“For the Sake of the Child and the Priest: Stop Sending your son or daughter to Live With Priests in the parish rectory.
“Recently, I watched a video of VeryDarkMan where a Catholic priest was falsely accused of wrongdoing simply because he welcomed a boy into his parish to help him.
“Thankfully, the truth eventually came out and his name was cleared. Still, I couldn’t help but think of the emotional and spiritual trauma that comes from being wrongly accused, especially when all you wanted to do was help.
“Nobody is perfect. Priests are human. Families are human. Mistakes happen. But there is one mistake we really must stop making, sending our children to go and live permanently with priests “for training” to become a priest.
“The rectory is not a seminary. The priest’s house is not a boarding home. And the priest is not a substitute parent. Yes, children can visit occasionally. They can receive guidance, support, mentorship. But living permanently in a priest’s house is not healthy, not wise, and not safe, spiritually or emotionally.
“And honestly, I don’t even blame many priests. In our culture, it is very difficult to say no to relatives and parishioners. There is pressure. There is expectation. There is the desire to help. Sometimes priests accept simply because refusing would cause misunderstanding or offense.
“But we need to know this, priest’s life is a battlefield. Spiritually. Emotionally. Sometimes even physically. Priests fight battles daily, many of which the public never sees. And when the enemy cannot strike them directly, he can attempt to strike through the people closest to them, including the young people living under their roof.
“Beyond that spiritual reality, there are also human risks. Scandals. Misunderstandings. False accusations. Emotional dependency. Abuse of trust. Broken boundaries. And yes, really dark stories that never should have happening at all, the appearance of impropriety is enough to ruin reputations and destroy lives. One careless rumor is enough. One manipulated story is enough. One emotional attachment taken the wrong way is enough.
“How many times have we heard of “Father’s boy” or “Father’s daughter,” where unhealthy attachment, confusion of roles, or spiritual manipulation creeps in? This is not about attacking priests or families. It is about protecting everyone.
“The rectory is not a private house for experimentation with boundaries. It belongs to the Church. And the Church must protect priests and children alike.
Honestly, our dioceses need to regulate this culture more strictly. There should be clear rules. No minors living permanently in the rectory. No informal “training to become a priest.” No blurred relationships.
“If your son or daughter is meant for priesthood or religious life, there are seminaries and approved formation houses. These are structured environments with trained formators, not private living rooms with constant visitors, spiritual duties, and unending pressures.
“Let me speak directly to parents. If you currently have a child living with a priest, bring that child home this year. Bring them back to their family. Their normal childhood.
“Some environments are simply not meant for growing vulnerable hearts. Because the truth many won’t say out loud is this. After living in the parish rectory. Some children come out wounded. Some come out good. Some leave confused about faith. Some even walk away from God. Some become atheist and lost respect for priesthood and the church entirely.
“Support priests. Love priests. Respect priests. But don’t turn the priest’s house into a boarding school or a long-term lodging for your child. Protect your children. Protect your priests. Protect the Church. Sometimes the best way to help is to simply say, Father, thank you but my child will stay at home.”

You’ve brought so much joy, you’ve truly been a gift.

I love you endlessly”.
