When God says no one will see him, I take it that he meant we should see him through our MOTHERS. You are my small-God and the most loyal being.
Mum, I was told be you passed on, you requested for your church members to come and pray for you and you left in your quiet but peaceful sleep while everyone was also around you. Your son, grand-children and friends.
Just past 12 yesternight I was speaking about mothers to few women where I was and how great I value mothers and virtuous women, what a sign. You lived a good life mum, we lived all my life together. In all honesty, you can pass for a sinless being. Go and rest mum.
Still in shock ???? BLACK FRIDAY. One of the days I will never forget. There is however room for praise to you God. Aluta Continua.
RIP my first love, my gist partner, my best friend, my biggest fan, my ebony, my sweetest heart, my pillar, my backbone, my pathfinder, my defender, my comfortable, my suffering partner. I lost one of my most priceless gift. Mum, my love for you is undeniable. I am grateful. I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU MUM. god's don't die, YOU ONLY WENT TO REST. RIP#Africa ... spill TEA....

''Very Annoying when people ask questions like “how did he make his money” “where him carry money from” Why do you want to know how He/she made Money? There is a fundamental issue here and we need to fix it starting from The Youths of our dear Nation.
We tend to hold hardworking young men accountable and forget we have people who we all elected into power and going by what they earn officially cannot afford the lifestyle they live.
So don’t ask me questions Cos your money no dey miss ????''

“I have been into this act for over three years and I cannot explain why am still doing it, but one thing was certain, I know that the police would apprehend me one day.”
“I cannot state exactly why I was engaging in the act; I remember that I became involved in it since I divorced my wife.
“I usually give them (victims) little gift items and some herbs with which to take their bath before the intercourse so that they would not reject my advances. May God forgive me,” he said.#Africa ... spill TEA.... Easy on Shade #jaiyeorie
Whenever Davido arrives the airport, he usually leave his check-in luggage for his aides to clear. Immediately he arrives on a flight, he goes out and will start doling out money outside the terminal.
“Today, he arrived as usual with several luggage and about 17 in all. The rule is that whenever you arrive, you are expected to release your tags to the Checkport staff for confirmation and verification, but rather than comply with the simple rule, one of his aides insisted he won’t allow them to check the tags.
“He rebuffed everyone who were carrying out their lawful duties and resorted to attack the officials. No fewer than four officials were beaten by the person in question with at least two of them soaked in blood.
“When he was uncontrollable, he was bundled into the cell and he insisted that he must be taken to a police station. This however, attracted Davido’s attention who was already out of the terminal. He had to return, but the security officials refused to hand over the luggage to him. One of the luggage we even gathered contained some money in foreign currencies.#Africa ... spill TEA....

“As we roll out, you’ll see less public content like posts from businesses, brands, and media.
“The public content you see more will be held to the same standard — it should encourage meaningful interactions between people,” Mark Zuckerberg wrote.
I read an article about how the women had this audacious goal of becoming Africa’s first-ever bobsled team to go to the Winter Olympics. I was super inspired, and instantly thought, I wonder if I could be a part of that?But after asking the team if she could be the fourth member, she told them that although bobsleigh is a sport for four men, it's a sport for two women. In 2017, another opportunity arose. She saw an Instagram call for essays by the Nigerian Bobsled and Skeleton Federation in Houston, Texas. She packed her bags and went to Houston, arriving the morning of testing and participating in the evening. She received a call from the Federation weeks later, she said, asking her to come to camp in Canada.
So, when I saw that, I was thinking, maybe they need a fourth person and maybe that fourth person could be me because there’s a history of track and field athletes going into bobsled.
I honestly didn’t know much about the sport, but knew that there was a lot that I could draw from my track and field background to help me succeed in it. You run as fast as you can for about 30 meters to gain momentum before you launch into or onto something.Adeagbo on her Instagram shared the great news that she had qualified for the winter Olympics, writing:
I was able to pick up the push start very, very quickly because I already had that experience with the runway of triple jump. Where I really have the advantage is only for a very short amount of time, four or five seconds of the race. But the track is a mile long, so the race will last another 50 seconds.
Hello Pyeongchang! I successfully completed my 5th qualifying race with a 3rd place finish! I’m looking forward to representing @bsfnigeria & becoming the first female African Skeleton athlete to compete in the Winter Olympics. Dreams do come true!Simidele Adeagbo also shared a video, captioning it: “What an epic day! ❤️🇳🇬☠️🔥💃🏿”

What I thought was impossible
He did it effortlessly for me
THANK YOU JESUS for this amazing blessing & plan for my life! 🙏🏾#historyinthemaking#breakingbarriers#watchmework 📸@candicewardphotography
“He took me into this room and then just closed the door and started kissing me,” she said.Simons, now 43 and with two children, claims that she also met Seagal on the day of casting. When she complained of a headache, he offered her a massage.
“He then took my clothes off and before I knew it he was on top of me, raping me … I wasn’t sexually active yet. People always talk about fight-or-flight. But no one talks about the freeze.”
“The only way I’m able to describe it is I literally felt like I left my body,” she said.
“I think because of the situation I was completely caught off guard. Tears were coming down my face and I know that it hurt. He was three times my size.”

Throwback to my Matriculation Day in Unilag. 1998. Day of Glory that became a Day of Disgrace!
•
Back Home (then), we had this little-black-and-white-brandless-TV that never showed steady pictures...We always had to slap it hard for it to show properly and each heavy slap only held vice for bout 20mins! I was always exasperated with it!
One Sunday, I rubbed anointing oil on it and Alleluia, the "skoin-skoin" of this toolbox-sized TV ceased and it was perfect picture all day (only on that Sunday)! Then & there, I saw a promo for an audition: New young actors and actresses wanted for the most popular family series back then. (D Executive Producer is late now, Heaven bless her soul!). I was FRIGGING EXCITED. Jotted down d address, went d next day (Monday) to their office in Ikeja, paid 2k for d form & got the Audition dates.
•
The actual auditioning date was the same day as my Matric. Even before the Matric, I posed with a makeshift gown (cos I couldn't afford one) & raced to Ikeja in my very best ensemble (My Dad's checkered shirt, my best denim pants, borrowed shades and my Yaba-Aba-made trainers that always smelt so bad after I took them off).
I was at the auditioning ground from 10am thru till 7pm waiting for my turn. I honestly didn't mind the long wait...I wanted to be on the show so bad cos I needed the cash, exposure and of course, work. My turn and I went in with all d confidence in d world.
They called in 10 of us & when it was time to act, I nailed it. However, there was an Actor on the panel (very popular at that time) who was eyeing me in disdain. He suddenly started throwing questions at me, perhaps in a bid to make me look stupid or throw me off but i was damn ready for him.
He looked me squarely in the eye and told me, I recall this too well; "YOU WILL NEVER MAKE IT IN THIS INDUSTRY. YOU ARE TALENTLESS AND JUST WASTED OUR TIME. YOU WANT US TO PUT U ONSCREEN? SUCH A DISGRACE". I thought he was reading from d script. Next thing, I was walked out with the others.
D other guys tried consoling me but I left shattered. Trekked from Ikeja to Yaba. Cried all The way home.

@DavidOyelowo has FINALLY joined instagram! I taught him everything he knows!!! Welcome Oga! #YellowWithOyelowoSee the post below:
"We're asking a lot of men, in light of the #MeToo movement, how men can grow in 2018,” the reporter asked, to which the boxer replied, "The who?"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“The #MeToo movement. Women speaking out about sexual assault,” she said,Mayweather said
"When you say 'me too' ... when somebody is like, 'I got a Rolls-Royce, I be like 'me too.' When somebody say they got a private jet, I say, 'Me too. I got two. Me too.'"⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Well, I didn't know! My Me Too movement from the beginning was whenever somebody said what they have I'm like, "me too." Somebody say they got a billion dollars, I say, "I made a billion dollars, me too."⠀
