Five distinctive difference between a “Foreign babe and a Naija babe”.

Featured

a-and-e

Have ever wondered why most a group of Naija guys would prefer to marry a foreigner and a faction would prefer sticking with the Naija babe, it’s all about taste and preference?  Taking aside those with the wrong motives like those seeking for visa and green card, I will discuss today five distinctive difference between a “Foreign babe and a Naija babe.

  1. Foreign babe loyalty is higher : Foreign babes loyalty to their men tends to be higher than our Naija babes, once they are in love with you, irrespective of your background, financial status, attractive or not or handsome, height, color or race their loyalty is legendary and a top notch. On the other hand, most Naija babes loyalty comes most times comes with a clause, they don’t just fall in love like that. In fact their loving you come with something they can hold onto, they most times love because of good financial status, attractiveness or marriage. So therefore I would rate the foreign girl’s loyalty to be at 90% and our Naija babe loyalty 70%.

 

  1. Naija babes endure and perseverance is top notch: You would find a Naija babe in an abusive relationship and still claims she loves her partner. You will find her husband or boyfriend will beat up and treat her like she worths nothing but yet she will still remain in such an abusive relationship or you will find very few of them enduring and managing with a broke or a cheating dude hoping for a better day. The moment you try this with a foreign babe most especially from the West, my brother,she breaks up with you asap and you will be very lucky if she didn’t press charges against you or shoot you. Please note lack of the foreign babe’s ability to endure in relationships and marriages is one of the major causes of single parenting.
  1. Most Foreign babes love unconditionally: Like I said in my earlier statement irrespective of your background, financial status, attractive or not or handsome, height, color or race their love and loyalty is legendary. The new breeds of Naija babes we have these days are chronic materialistic beings, should it be blamed on the increased rate of poverty in our society or the degraded moral status in the country. Naija babes quantify love and money, forgetting that money can’t bring absolute happiness. This is one of the major reasons we have broken homes these days because they flow with the social tide, marrying for the wrong reasons.

4.      Naija Babes motherhood is next to nothing: Naija babes are better mothers compared to their foreign counterparts , they tend to instill better morals and up bringing into kids more. I could remember back then as a kid, I dare not eat outside as a kid because of the training my mom gave to me. When we have family outings I and my siblings dare not eat without decoding the facial sign of our mom, there’s a sign that says “eat” and there’s is this other sign that says “don’t eat”. If you there eat outside without permission , be expecting a legendary beat from her, she will beat the stupidity out of you with her slippers or cane “Pankere” as we call it.

  1. Naija babe’s stands in love: Naija babes love you with all their guard on, mental alertness so as not to fall prey to their futuristic miss-doing of their partner. You tell C they must ask you have it has to be C because they curious people. For example, you tell a Naija babe that you are at the mall with a friend her most likely question would be “with a female or male friend”, some might go the extent of requesting for you to take a picture of where you are with such friend. A foreign befalls head over heels in love with all their guards, mental alertness, being pocketed by their partner, they can go extra miles for the sake of love.

 

So what team are you ? As for me I’m team Foreign babe o, in this current recession, keeping a Naija babe would cost a fortune biko except there still those who can love unconditionally..winks….

7 soft landing tips to launch you into 2017

2017

1. In 2017 use more of your brain power (Soft work) than might

It is widely believed that most black people are synonymous with using more of their might than the brainpower but in 2017 let the reverse be the case. In our world of today those using more of their might to solve daily challenges are less valued compared to those who uses their brain might (Soft work). It is also believed that strength is readily available to all but the proper articulation and usage of the brain might is not available.

  1. In 2017 embrace only healthy relationships

There’s nothing that weigh a man down emotionally and psychologically than an unhealthy relationship, its either you fix it or you quit! Starting a new year with an unresolved baggage’s is not the ideal way to kick start a brand new year so once again “If you can’t resolve it quit it! And in working relationships click with people who understand your vision and plan of action and try to keep your detractors abased.

healthyrelationships

 

  1. In 2017 be receptive to knowledge

In the year 2017 make yourself teachable and learn-able, no man is an island of knowledge. Learn from new things from daily experiences, books, media, and enemy, superior, minor, friends and relatives and a big bye to your ego.

knowledge

 

  1. In 2017 Be a Responsible person

Push the frontiers of incompetence; try hard to be competent and responsible. Accept faults and reduce the blame games. And for the young bachelors still playing games around get serious with a lady and be responsible, I’m talking to you too young spinsters playing games too. Take full ownership of whatever responsibility being given to you whether big or small.

responsibility-large

  1. In 2017 be ready for opportunities

Learn to always look beyond your nose in 2017. Opportunities comes sometimes in the most unattractive outlook, remember the brain behind the mobile toilet in Nigeria (may his soul rest in peace)? This man made a fortune from human waste and passed it to his generation, funny enough his business slogan is “Sh*t na money”.

opportunity

  1. In 2017 appeal to people’s needs

The quickest and the surest way to get people do something for you is when you appeal to their need, quit that beggarly lifestyle and appeal to people’s needs to get something. For example just this year Mark Angel became a hit, he only appealed to people’s needs with his visual comedy and people in turn gave him back what he needed “Money and Fame”.

appeal

  1. In 2017 avoid parasites

Try to separate people who are Parasitic in nature from the Symbiotic (Those who you benefit from and they as well benefit from you) ones. Simply embrace the symbiotic folks and stay far from the parasitic ones, and try not to be a parasite to no one.

Sylvester Stallone “The struggle and Rise” (Rocky)

Featured

rocky-iii

Remember the super classic movie “Rocky”, starring Sylvester Stallone as the main cast ?

If you are a lover of classic movies I’m sure you do would have seen the movie before, well there’s to that movie than the story entails. The movie became Sylvester Stallone breakthrough into Hollywood, but note that wasn’t his first movie but his first major cast as an actor. Join me as I briefly take you on a journey ride of genesis of Sylvester Stallone break into the limelight through the movie “Rocky”, I hope this would stair up someone out there into greatness.

At the beginning

Sylvester Stallone had it pretty rough in life as a young adult; he came to Hollywood to pursue his passion as a young man. He started as a young struggling actor, fighting for each little movie roles he got.  He was once rejected a movie role he so wanted, but he persisted on getting it. He went as far as sleeping by the door of the director just to proof to the director how much he wanted that minor movie role.  The movie director got really touched by Sylvester’s drive and passion and at the end he got it, the never say die spirit in Sylvester Stallone is what I admired the most in him. Sylvester didn’t stop there he went on struggling as a young man, as the course of his struggles his beloved girlfriend left him. He felt devastated, leaving him only with his dog which became his closet companion as time went on. Sylvester Stallone fed from hand to mouth living each day with hope of a better tomorrow. Stealing, cheating or staying idle was never an option to him instead he pressed harder towards becoming the man he has always dreamt of being.

 

The Genesis of the Break

This was how it all began….. Sylvester Stallone got inspire after watching a boxing fight on TV because at that time I’m sure wouldn’t be able to afford a ticket to a major live boxing match. So he picked up his pen and started writing a movie script, he sat down writing for many hours, never stopped until he finished what is soon to be the world’s renowned masterpiece The movie “Rocky”, script. After completing the script he presented it to one of Hollywood’s huge movie studios, the movie studio liked it and offered Sylvester Stallone hundred bucks of dollars for the script. A hundred bucks of dollars for totally broke dude he hardly feed himself and pay bills wow! But guess what? He turned it down and gave them his own conditions for the script to be released to them.  Sylvester Stallone emphatically asked the movie company to make him the main cast of his own story, the request sounded weird and funny to them. The movie company told Sylvester Stallone that it’s not going to be possible, that they prefer to use an established actor for the major character not a rookie like Sylvester Stallone got inspire. The movie company laughed it off and offered to increase the earlier price offered way higher to convince him to change his mind but Sylvester Stallone turned the offer down and left. After the meeting with the movie company Sylvester Stallone went even more broke that he has to sell his best friend “his dog” just to feed. That was the most devastating moment of his life, he felt as though the world should just come crashing on him.

 

The Break

“But come to think of it, if it were many out there the fact that he was hungry and broke would make him sell the movie script at that mouthwatering price. Many out there would do otherwise, hungry or poverty isn’t enough excuse to lose your dignity and insanity.”

rocky

Few weeks later after selling his dog to feed, the movie company called Sylvester Stallone for talks. He went for the meeting with the movie company and at the course of the meeting they reluctantly accepted to stare Sylvester Stallone got as the main cast of the movie but would offer just peanuts for his pay. Sylvester Stallone gladly accepted the deal; he got paid and went straight to the place he sold his dog to buy him back. For weeks he couldn’t find the person he sold the dog to, but his never say die spirit still pushed to keep on searching for his best friend. Finally he found the dog and the man he sold the dog to, he was so excited to see his dog again, the dog wagged his tail sighting his original owner. Sylvester Stallone immediately offered to buy back his dog but the man refused and told Sylvester Stallone that the dog is now his and there’s nothing he could do about it. Sylvester Stallone narrated the whole deal to him, how he got to the position of selling the dog and the movie script, then the man offered a deal. He offered to sell the dog back to Sylvester Stallone for thousands of dollars (a dog he bought from Sylvester Stallone about a hundred dollar) and a role in the movie “Rocky”, Sylvester Stallone agreed to the deal and got his best friend back.

After his first major movie Sylvester Stallone got his break in the movie industry because he stood by what he believed. He could have accepted the mouthwatering offer and maybe misuse it and his dreams would be left unfulfilled. He was broke, shattered and hungry but he never allowed any of this to determine course his should follow, he stood strong and got the ultimate prize. So to my struggling brothers and sisters or you out there still hoping for a better day, don’t give up, continue doing that very thing that adds value to people, and embrace the “never say die spirit of Sylvester Stallone, you will be noticed and get rewarded someday.

7 vital attributes job interviewers seeks

Featured

business

When going to a for a job interview there are few immediate attribute you are expected to have in order to impress the interviewers,  you should exude these 7  tips I’m about to share in the first 10 minutes you spend with them. The first 2 to 5 mins matters a lot in a job interview, you mess up within this minute, your ability of regaining momentum to impress might be slim. So kindly seat back, widen your attention as I take you on a journey ride of impressing any interviewer….

  1. Appearance: It is said “never judge a book by its cover” but in this case you are first by your cover and like the popular saying goes “you dress the way you want to be addressed”. Your interview starts with your appearance, no one will take you ever serious if you are poorly dressed up. So loosen up their guards first and reduce the vile and attacks, they would throw at you with your fashionable dress sense.  If you are not the fashion oriented type surf the internet to enrich your mind on that regards.

 

  1. Confidence: Confidence is the key, it is hard for people to entrust responsibility to someone without confidence. Let everything about you speak confidently, from your appearance to your facial expression, carriage, charisma and speech. Even if you are nervous or your system is naturally accommodating some atom of fret, try as much as possible to conceal it. The kind of confidence you exude would go a long way to tell them if actually you are the right person for the job. Check out Obama’s first election campaign, his opponent would have overwhelmed him by all standards, but Obama stole the crowd from him with his charming charisma and speech. Fortunately, this has once worked for me before, I applied for a job I’m not academically qualified for and to my amazement I was invited for the interview. On the day of the interview i nailed the job interviewers with confidence and ended up engaging them in (please don’t try this if you are not eloquent or a sweet talker) conversation.

 

  1. Ability check: This is the major reason why they are interviewing you, they want to see if you are the right person for the job. It is now left for you to go extra mile to fortify yourself with the required and necessary information about the job and the company. Never let them catch you on aware, appeal to their needs by giving them what they need and even add “Jara”. Never look desperate or say things that would make them to want to pity you, a friend of mine once made that grievous mistake, he told his interviewers that “he had an accident few months ago” to attract pity. At the end of the day he didn’t get the job, note these people don’t condone any form of liability or inability, so the key is appealing to their needs.

 

  1. Human relationship test: They want to know the level of your human relationship; they want to know how you will relate with their clients or customers. That’s why most times they engage you in conversation outside the working spare. At this point the smile you put on, language articulation and your courtesy would speak for you.

 

  1. Loyalty check: The interviewer would also like to know the degree of your loyalty, that’s why they ask this question most times “why did you leave the previous company you were working” (answer: I want a bigger challenge in my career, a new working horizon after spending couple of years with them, I left them with a proper notice and on a good note), “are you presently in a contract with any organization or engaged in whatsoever thing that would limit your time. They want own majority of your time if not all, especially the banking industry. Giving them assurance of your loyalty to them would go a long way to give you higher advantage of gaining the employment.

 

  1. Background check: This where job experience would speak for you, as a fresh graduate this might be difficult to acquire but it is definitely not a good idea to remain idle after school. Look for something that will get you engaged in regards to the area of your field, render free services if possible. You are after the experience and not the money yet, this point has also helped me too. Every year I voluntarily join the organizing team of a major event in Lagos without getting a dime, then one day an offer came and I was asked if I have ever organized an event before, I happily said yes. I mentioned the event I organized and wala! I got the offer! They want to know where you reside and how it may affect your working flow. Just except to be scrutinized like you are in the custody of the FBI, at this point try as much as possible to give straight and concise answers.

 

  1. Belief: Unfortunately this aspect is not supposed to count but unfortunately in this part of the world we are it does count, majority of us are religious folks. I have been asked by several interviewers in the past “Which church do you worship”? You coincidentally attend the same church or have the same belief as they do; you gain closer ties with them. Tell them you are an atheist, agnostic or a traditional worshiper at your own detriment, though I’m not a religious person but I pretend to be in situations like this biko! Nobody come Lagos to come count bridges.

 

I hope this few points of mine is helpful to you my honorable readers, please always check back on www.herexg.wordpress.com for more educative and entertaining post thanks for reading.

 

6 THINGS TO LEARN FROM TRUMP’S VICTORY

Featured

bbogshq

  1. Appeal to the direct needs of the majority: Throughout Trumps campaign he emphatically stressed on the immediate needs of the White majority, he made sure he carried the White along and made them  his targeted strength neglecting the opinions and reactions of the minority race.

Application

In life you want to sell out your ideas and opinions, appeal to the needs of the majority that matters.

  1. Always work with the right team: Trump would have lost this election woefully if he had not employed the hands of American brightest elites, they re-branded, re-formatted and re-packaged him. You will notice at the middle and tail end of his election campaign he tried to carry all races along and even travelled to Mexico to correct his earlier bombshell against the Latinos. His campaign team did a great job on him so much that he recent campaign speeches would even Hillary campaign heads to into Trumps team.

Application

Working with the right team always works even if you are not the best option; they are cloud scream that shields your lapses and make you appear undisputable

  1. Employ an admirable confidence: If there is one thing I admire about him is the charming confidence he employs in every speech he makes, he brings words into reality in the hearts of his listeners with his admirable confidence.  The confidence attached to his speech  when he made a derogatory statement about Islam shook  UK that they have to threaten him with a ban.

Application

Admirable confidence will stand you out no matter where you go, it was same confidence that gave Obama victory four years ago.

  1. Be Flexible when it matters the most: A Trump who appeared to be rigid, tough and arrogant, man spite derogatory words at his oppositions at the beginning of the election campaign now bentt o become accommodating, stopped using harsh words instead started using more sensible words like “I dedicate this victory to us”.   

Application

If Trump wasn’t flexible at the middle and tail end of his election campaign he would have failed woefully, he readjusted to shake off the devil depiction and appeared like a saint. In life don’t let only your opinion to  always be the ultimate, be flexible when the need arises.

  1. Stay Focused: Even when it all seems not working accordingly, when the major celebrities in American turned their back against him, they even went as far as endorsing his opposition.  But all that didn’t deter Trump went publicly to say “We don’t need Beyonce, Jayz or any celebrity to win”, wow that was powerful! In all, he kept his gaze at the ultimate prize.

Application

Trumps strong focus on the prize gave him the victory. Now here is a practical example for the male next time you “focus your genital on sandy ground you will see the impression the force of the pee would create, but when you toss the genital around no impression is created.

  1. Strike your opposition hard when the opportunity calls: Trump never failed to stroke his opposition during the Republican primaries. He white washed  the likes of Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio and others with bombshell s that got them confused and sterile that George W Bush had to order his younger brother Jeb Bush to pull out of the race because of Trumps vile at him and the family.

Application

Save more energy by striking your opposition when the opportunity calls, it gives you a clearer and better chance of attaining the ultimate prize, giving them more room to attack you would make you lose focus or even make you loss at the end of the day.

My sexual fantasy fulfilled in Lagos

Featured

black-man-white-woman

I’m Doris a married lady from Alabama US; I turned just 40 last week and I celebrated my birthday in a grand style. It was an experience I will live to always remember, I was able to fulfill my long standing sexual fantasy with Chinedu. I have been chatting online with Chinedu for the past 6 months; he is a 27 year old young Nigerian man. We performed all manner of sexual activity online, our sexual attraction getting more intense at each passing day. My online relationship got so passionate that whenever I had sex with my husband I always see Chinedu’s  face, that I once exclaimed his name (Chinedu baby) while making love with my husband. Looking bewildered he asked “who’s Chinedu”. I quickly turned the table around so he wont get a glimpse of what i meant, so I said to him that it was just a sexual exclamation “Shit now do me baby”. I promised myself that I must fulfill this sexual fantasy with Chinedu on my 40th birthday no matter what. It would be a life unfulfilled not making my sexual encounter with him come alive; our relationship is more of lust than love. At the mention of his name my pussy tingles, looking at his picture my pussy drips wet.  I saved majority of my earnings towards this sexual fulfillment, with a strong feeling inside me that it would come out all right and worth pains of saving.

I had to work it out with my boss to provide me with a fake official assignment to Lagos Nigeria. You might be wondering how this could be possible, well I have a close working relationship with my boss, and he is my friend and my boss. So on the 17th of August I took a flight to the Murtala International airport Lagos, I made my hotel reservations online before arriving. The hotel is located in Lagos somewhere in Ikeja near Chinedu’s office.  I finally arrived Lagos oh my goodness!  I have never seen a an enormous number of black energy bursting people like I saw in Lagos, I noticed how happy they are with smile imprinted in their faces, even as their government is  doing pretty little to enrich their lives.

The driver dropped me at the hotel and i called Chinedu to come over. He arrived, i let him in, and he locked the door. He hurriedly took my face in his hands, rested his forehead against mine and then kissed me gently. Tongue slowly coaxing my lips open and he suddenly his hands reaching around to embrace me, pulling me against his body. My arms came around him, hands seeking skin and his kisses sending shivers down my spine. Moans escaping my mouth as our tongues danced, I reached for his ass squeezing tight. Feeling his hard cock pressing against me the kiss became hungrier, with welling sexual excitement growing per second he pushed me towards the bedroom. Kissing me non-stop till we got to the bed and then he pushed me down….panting hard like a lion about to devour his prey and said “let me show you how much i have wanted you”. He reached down and pulled my dress over my head and then he hurriedly pulled off his jeans to reveal a gorgeous black cock, long, slightly curved and fully erect. His tough masculine hands came under my thighs, and slowly pushed his hands forward reaching for my dripping wet pussy. His finger slowly brushed on my clit, this sent sensational sparks all over my body and I released a loud moan. His cock slid inside me stretching my pussy, my immediate reaction was a thrust of my hips.  Every stroke sent another flash of fire through my body; I spread my legs wider his strokes increased in speed like a horse power engine increasing its momentum.  Hot waves flooded my body as my first orgasm flooded me; I quivered and jerked, thrusting hard against him wanting every inch of him inside me.

He then turned me on my side, lifting my leg for a better angle; once again his cock plunged inside slowly rotating his hip like an oscillator grinding inside me. The tip of his cock hitting bottom on every stroke, like a magnetic flux another wave of orgasm welled inside me. The sexual escape lasted for two hours straight, several positions and energy bursting. All in all, i came 6 times; he came thrice, releasing his thick white seed on my thighs. My pussy was happy; it was an absolutely fabulous experience, at the end it was worth it all. We had a one week of a marathon sexual escapade, oh my! No doubt I will sure want to come back to Lagos for this overwhelming sexual escapade wow!

 

Tips for broke guys to win a refined lady’s heart

Featured

black-couple-hugging

Most people are of the opinion which states that “No broke dude can get frosh and classy babe”, today, I want you know that I have broken that opinion few times as a broke hustling dude. Note, when I mean broke, I don’t mean one who cannot afford to feed well, wear good clothing’s, speak and write good English, pay his own bills. I’m talking to all the struggling guys in the street who hustle and can only afford life necessities but not luxuries. Today I will be highlighting 6 good factor I used to win frosh babes as they are called hearts.

1. Cloud your financial incapability with confidence: There’s nothing a matured, miss independent lady cherish in a man more than confidence. I was in my street one day hanging out with some friends and suddenly this frosh and sweet lady walked pass us, I got attracted to this babe immediately I saw her, I told my friends right away ” I go get this babe number”. They all laughed at me saying ” This kind babe no be your level bro”, then I looked at myself, I was properly dressed. With a confidence i don’t know where it came from I approached this babe and wala! I got her number. The lady later told me that she has been in that neighborhood for few months now and no guy has grown thick muscles to approve her. It didn’t stopped there, after confidence then comes what ?

2. Be at the driving seat : For the first month I dated this babe, she treated me like an option, her loyalty to me was next to nothing. Then I found out why, I have been making a grievous mistakes most broke guys make with ladies. Low self esteem, was the issue, I was treating her with great reverend not wanting to lose her. I don’t tell her what to do as the man, whatever she does and wants is acceptable to me, so she took me for granted, in fact she asked me one day that I’m I even man enough. The month I immediately changed scope. We are discussing the scope in next point.

3. Learn the skill of pulling the strings: As man learn the skill of being in charge even when you are broke, here is the scope I first played after I realized my weakness. We both live in the same neighborhood, so whenever she get back from work she would call me to come catch up with her at the bus stop because I always get home before her. So I will see her off to her house and go back to my house, if she later comes to my house after she might have relax at will, sometimes I even beg her to come. But I changed all these the next month, here’s what I did ” she called me as usual to come catch up with her at the bus stop, instead of going to meet up with her, I told her to go home and fix up herself and then come to my house or she should come directly to my house. Lo and behold she came directly to my house. I started pulling her strings, directing her to meet wherever I want to see her, not me going after her like a Roaster chasing a Hen. From that moment I started taking charge and she started looking beyond my brokenness. ( Note you have to handle this with all manner of courtesy so you don’t appear bossy)

4. Yes she knows you are broke but sell yourself with your mouth: Even though I was broke, she always tells me that, I could go with loaded guys that comes after her like vehicles hunting for fuel during fuel scarcity but she chose to stay with me. All these was because she’s a what I call Miss Independent and it’s never a dull moment with me, I would talk her out of reality. Most people living in my face me I slap you compound was wondering what’s a beautiful babe like her even doing with me, some even went as far as telling her how much of a player and joke I’m. This lady will end up telling me those gossips at the end of the day but would do something I admire but won’t admit it to her “hid the identity of who’s telling her the gossip”. She knows gossips like that appalls me, I could hurt the person saying the gossip.

5. Strike her real well at the slightest opportunity : Don’t joke with a lady when it comes to this, you misuse the slightest green light given to you they go elsewhere to get it. As a broke hustling guy, let her sexual fantasy, pleasure and fulfillment be dependent on you. This would give you the major key into her heart, suck all “suckables” when and hit real hard when it calls for that, do it like your life is dependent on it and stop behaving like a “Bolo”.

6. Get her close to your surest family relation: This act would give the lady an insurance that you are a serious dude and not the type to come mess up with her and then gilt her. And a preferable family relation you should get her close with is either your female siblings or a CLOSE brother or uncle’s wife. ( Only do this when you have intentions to settle down with her).

So being broke is not the end of the road, theirs always a beaming light at the end of a tunnel.

Six silly mistakes business owners do

Featured

businessAs an entrepreneur or a business person, you are called to serve only customers. Most times business owners do some silly mistakes that are very unhealthy for business; here are six silly mistakes business owners do that is dangerous in the business terrain.

  1. Poor Branding scope

Branding in business covers a whole lot of areas but I will be talking about business name here, I laugh out loud most times when I hear or see most business name, I would most times ask myself did this people consulted anyone before choosing such business name. Most of them would try to sound very religious even with their business by naming their business according to their religious beliefs, just this most I finished consuming a bread and I decided to go through the bread’s wrapper and what I found was “God’s will Bread”, lol what a joke! Products that are meant for the entire public consumption should be 100% free from all religious attachments except your target consumers are of a particular religious group e.g. You want to manufacture an olive oil for only the Christian faith you name such product “By His Grace Olive oil”. Every business owner whose product is consumed by the entire public should be smart enough to remove all forms of religious content in their businesses so as to make their business appeal to all irrespective of their customer’s beliefs.

 

  1. Impatient 

Most business owners want to set up a business today and start making huge profits the next month, hell no! Business is no Abracadabra; it takes time for people to start noticing your business and a longer time for consumers to trust your business. For you not to wait too long for sales to come, you then need to apply an aggressive means of marketing e.g. If your kind of business is not out rightly new in the market, you will have to give consumers a good reason to leave Product A for your own new product B, this was the technique the Nigerian telecommunication giant Glo used to break into the Nigeria market with the introduction of per second billing rate. If you have done a proper analysis of a business, started proper operations, the next thing to employ is patience.

  1. Poor Customer Service

I walked into an International commercial bank recently to transact a business; I was like wow is this bank really situated in Nigeria? Though I wasn’t properly dressed from the gate the security personnel treated me like a VIP, when I entered the banking hall I asked for the banks teller from the security man standing in-between the exit and entrance of the bank and he politely showed me where to pick one. I observed that there was not a single seat in the banking hall, which simply means that they are not willing to keep their customers waiting and to be precise I transacted my business with the bank in an amazing time of less than 5mins. With that experience, I promised myself to open an account with them before the end of this year. That banks amazing customer care service has won them an additional customer, trust me I have transacted with other banks here in a Nigeria that I ended up having aches in my legs for standing too long. This is not only applicable to banks alone but all business ventures, always please yours customers like you are trying to woo Cinderella, make them feel more important than they feel they are and they will be stocked to your business like Ant and Sugar.

  1. Going into Business for the wrong purpose

It is true that the purpose of every business man is to make profit but beyond making profit you must that purpose that would still make you stay in business even if the ascertained profit is not coming forth. Never go into business because you saw “Chinedu” making profit with his business and you quickly decided to go into the same business as ‘Chinedu”, you never might know “Chinedu’s” drive for the business. One thing is certain you will never beat the original business idea owner, instead of following “Chinedu’s” idea search and create your own purpose of business and become an healthy competitor like Coca-Cola and Pepsi.

  1. Small Business Vision

When starting up a business on of the first thing that should come into your mind is seeking for ways to enlarge and remain in business, most businesses owned by Africans die immediately the business owner dies. I could mention countless businesses that went bankrupt because of the demise of the business owner; the business owner’s family would fight and fight for the business assets till they end up squandering the business assets and bankrupting the business. Have we asked ourselves why all these foreign brands standing the test of time even when the business owner is long dead and gone? The number one reason is partnership; those foreign businesses are not 100% owned by the business initiator, the profit and loss is shared among group of business like minds with the larger share belonging to the business owner or initiator. Instead your business remaining a one man business build it to a certain appreciable level that will attract investors to come in, be smart to sell out some percent of your company shares with you having the larger share so they won’t have an absolute control over your business. This would enable your business to grow bigger, better and more efficient because other investor’s interest is attached to the business. The business will also stand a better chance to stand the test of time even after the owner’s demise.

  1. Focus more on product improvement than brand improvement

If your branding is outweighs your product your business story would look like a very beautiful lady with an appalling character. A perfect example of what I’m talking about is the two giant cocoa beverages manufacturing company in Nigeria. One is more concentrated in branding and advert but giving us chocolate dust for chocolate drink while the other is more focus on the product improvement than branding and hereby giving us a more delicious chocolate drink, the truth is that the later sells better than the former. Improve more on your product quality and it would speak for itself, I didn’t ask us to ignore branding totally because it is also a vital area in business.

An Indian man once said “If you walk in the street of Lagos you will pick Dollars on the floor”, the Indian man doesn’t literally mean you will pick physical cash on the floor of street of Lagos, he simply means opportunities are abound in Lagos. I want to introduce an elderly woman who makes her little money doing the work of the Lagos state Waste Management   (LAWMA), every morning you will find this woman sweeping the highway of Thomas Owode Ajegunle Ikorodu road high.

IMG_20160518_092559  IMG_20160518_092658

She sweeps the high ways , not minding her old age and the high risk the work entails she goes ahead to gather the fine sand collected from the Lagos high way and store them in bags to sell. Instead of subjecting herself to begging, this diligent old lady device a means of survival the hard way not minding how little she earns and at the same time she is indirectly serving the Lagos road commuters by making the road clean. If this old lady could be doing this to survive shame be upon any young able man begging or stealing for survival. If you only open your eyes to the overwhelming opportunities surrounding you, solve problems, make life easier and be smart enough to transform it into income like the poor old lady.

a lady

After a long tiring meeting with my personal assistance at Hotel 69 situated in the broad street of Lagos, so I abruptly made a request

“I need a company this Friday night, so who do you have in mind for me?”

He grinned, and replied me with a high enthusiasm

“Senator Sir, I’m hooking you up sir with this hot, sexy, curvaceous and intelligent lady”

I became more interested, never seen Sam this much fascinated about a lady before. He went…

“I met her on a flight on my way back from Dubai, she is a professional never seen a “Call Girl” this passionate about what she does “

Sam’s statement immediately swept me off my feet, the girl’s description completely matches with the kind of lady I presently desire

“Hmm interesting … Good one Sam but she is of what age range?”

“She should be in her early 30’s; Senator that lady would blow your mind”

“Eeee Sam hope you have not first tested her before me”

Sam’s expression changed, he looked astonished

“Oh no sir! Have you forgotten that I’m gay?”

I felt as though I could swallow back that statement

“Oh sorry Sam, I got overwhelmed by the lady, so what’s her name?”

“It’s ok sir, she is Adriana”

I became very eager to meet with this mystery lady, can’t wait till Friday to meet her

“Sam I want to meet with this lady by lunch tomorrow”

“Sure sir, I will call her right her right away”

Its 12:30pm I’m patiently waiting in a VIP lounge at Hotel 69 to meet with this mystery lady Sam hyped so much, I couldn’t contain my eagerness to meet so I dialed Sam’s number

“Sam what’s happening naa, I have been waiting here for over 30 Minutes and no sign of her coming yet”

Just as I end the call I saw a shadow cast of hour glass figure from the entrance, the closer she gets the faster my heart beat throbs. She is a dark skinned plump and curvaceous lady with a pair of boobs looking like two large wrecking balls fitted together in a tight bra, she seductively fitted her boobs in her dress, making it look like the boobs were trying to break free from the bra. Her waist line is breath taking it is as though she was dragging two planets fitted in a Jeans. She is smartly dressed with a body fitted grey armless blouse and a tight fitted Jean; I was totally thrown into oblivion that I didn’t noticed when she approached me

“Good afternoon Sir I’m Adriana”

That sweet sounding seductive voice of her brought me back into reality, we immediately choke hands

“Oh welcome my dear, please to meet Adriana, I’m Senator Badda and please have your seat”

(Soft music playing at the background)

It is a classic private Bamboo bar; the lights were a bit dimmed so as to bring alive that romantic ambience. There was a table and two cozy chairs pre-arranged for me their prestigious customer my special guest, we sat down and got talking..

“What do you care for my lady?”

“A chill cup of water would do sir, I’m a teetotaler”

I couldn’t hid my amusement

“Wow that’s interesting”

The bar man appeared with two chill bottled water and two tumblers, he wanted to help open and serve the drink but I objected. I snapped open the bottle and served her chill drink; she grabbed her cup and immediately gush it in with poise.

“You sound so intelligent and smart, why this choice of livelihood”

“Mr Badda….” I interrupted

“No please call me Senator”

“Senator I don’t see what I do as a livelihood, it is my profession sir, there is a difference between a livelihood and a profession”

This lady never ceases to amuse me right from the very first minute i saw her

“Hmm…quite interesting, so why this choice of profession dear?”

“Can I ask you a question sir?”

“Oh please do..”

“Please be sincere with me, what was the first thing you thought about when you saw me”

I unavoidably babbled

“Emmm I saw saw beeeaau…”

She cuts in

“Please Sir….I was sex, you were already fantasying on taking me to bed”

Oh this girl don read my mind o

“Well that’s true”

“Senator I’m a sex appeal figure, every man would want to have a piece of me, so I decided to make a business out of it but in a more professional way. I learnt the art of sex and techniques to pleasure people in a whole new dimension. I’m very passionate about my profession, I don’t see myself as a prostitute but a hospitality personnel”

“Wow! You said people, does it means that you pleasure women too?”

“Oh yes! I have a lot of them as clients too”

“Hmm what….”

She abruptly cut my next question

“Enough of this question and answer session, please let’s get to business sir, my p*ssy is wet and ready for you sir”

On hearing this my d*ck twitched, so I quickly led her to my hotel room

Kinds of Lies

lies

 

I won’t dispute the fact that a lie will always be a lie no matter how it’s told or who is telling it and the reason is being told but when we look deeper, access or check properly  “lies” are distinctively divided into three kinds. No doubt this ancient and famous act called “Lie” is practiced by almost all human races, ages, genders, sizes and figures with exception for the littles babies and the mute. To be candid, we can always try to reduce lies to its minimal but we can’t help but tell it consciously or unconsciously at times to safe matters. Bellow I will shed more lights on kinds of lies…

 

  •       Lies based on Respect: Just like title goes, this kind of lie is told based on the respect one has for the person he or she is telling the lies to. Relationship is a very vital part in our own human social system, so this lies are told to protect relationships and integrity. If people were to be charged for telling this kind of lies most Husbands and Wives, Boyfriends and Girlfriends, Business associates would have paid heavily because these categories of people tells this kind of lies without repentance.

 

  •      Deceptive Lies:   No doubt this kind of lie are told mainly because of selfish interest, it is told not because you respect the person you are telling the lie to but because that person is holding an important thing that is of interest to you. They are most times desperate and desperate times calls for desperate measures and that measure is Deception, now let’s categories of people that hopelessly guilty of this kind of lies are the Politicians, Casanovas, Gold diggers, Swindlers and Con artist.

 

 

  •       Pranks:   This a kind of lie or deception practiced because of entertainment or laughter, it is an healthy kind of lie but some most times takes it to the extreme. A dose of this kind of lie or deception is good for our daily social activities in our homes, work , schools, parties   and place of worship but WARNING “ Prank responsibly”.

5 wrong moves guys makes online that that turns off ladies

Featured

guy chat

Ladies all around the world be it Africa, Asia and America are almost the same, they share very similar feature not letting their guard off most especially when you are a stranger. The internet today is fast changing that every day, you could start with a word as short as “Hi” and end up hitting and keeping the price. But a lot of dudes go about this the wrong ways; these are 5 wrong moves guys makes online that that turns off ladies.

  1. Unattractive DP: Images speaks more than a thousand words, it would speak for you and save you the energy of describing your physical features. You will find most dude taking pictures in front of a dirty wall or a shabby looking background with a funny pose and then upload it as their display pictures on their social media platforms. You will find some taking pictures with a blurry camera with a funny pose like bending beside flowers and shrubs like in the 60s. Dude step up your game this is the 21st century take decent with a mix of some raunchy good quality pictures, it goes a long way to give the ladies of what you would taste like.
  1. Asking too much and dumb questions: This is a huge turn off for the ladies and many guys are guilty of this, they want to know everything about a lady the very first minute they start conversing and they most time get short of words and start asking dumb questions like “Are you a Christian or Muslim ? What kind of phone are you using ? Do you have light (power) blabla ? Even if you want to ask questions be creative about it, ask it in a way she will start to pour out her mind to you by that way you will discover her area of interest instead of directly asking her what her area of interest is. And finally when she finally start asking you questions, your jackpot is around the corner. Below is a brief example of what I mean

Wrong move

Ade: Hello Dear

Chika: Hi

Ade: How are you?

Chika: Fyn

Ade: How was your night?

Chika: Fyn ooo (this time the babe start losing interest, might even ignore)

Ade: You are so sexy and hot

Chika: ???

Good move

Ade: Hello

Chika: Hi

Ade: How are you doing today?

Chika: Fyn

Ade: Hope you had a great night

Chika: Yes I did and you?

Ade: My night was splendid; I’m Ade from Lagos and you?

  1. Being uninteresting or Boring: This is where your explorative and creative skills is needed, try to explore her needs and desires and amplify it without making it look obvious. For example her desire is bread and butter; present those bread and butter as a hot delicious sandwich. Play with her imaginations, leave her with wild imaginations after each chat, and cleverly show off your knowledge most especially in the area of her interest. Most ladies admires intelligent guys, you don’t have to be a nerd to be intelligent, step up that sexiness and handsomeness with something in your brains. Don’t leave reading and learning alone to the nerds.
  1. Stalking: After hitting a good start up chats, or maybe gaining little attention from the lady most guys’ gets overzealous and become the ladies monitoring spirit. They start looking up for the lady online almost every minute, gosh! Give it a break! Ladies needs some amount of space , in fact make them believe you are busy even if you are not, and not the other way around your last time on Whatsapp ,BBM,Facebook 2secs ago all day. Dudes give it a break, apply the law of demand and supply, make them miss you, this would prompt them to start looking for you, then your value increases.
  1. Trying too hard to impress: At this point most guys allow the attention they are getting from their crush to get over there head, by making a fool of themselves, letting out way too much information that might in a way turn off the lady’s surmounting emotions Dude be a gentleman you be more of the reader than the typist

Whew! I hope I have been able to be of help to you my delectable readers, please always try to check back for some more informative and exciting piece from my humble self HerexG wink!

Beware of Dogs in your Office

Featured

black-professionals

 

The world is filled with so many wicked and desperate people hovering about as scents, friends and associates; you will find the very desperate ones mostly in our homes and offices. I will lay more emphasis on taking strict safety precautions in our offices or place of work, in doing so I will share real life experiences, so I crave your indulgence to read and learn.

A few months ago one of our close family friends was employed as a clerk in one of Nigerians prestigious federal universities, after getting the employment; he immediately applied for admission to pursue his Bachelor’s Degree in the same school he is working. He was so hardworking, humble and loyal to the university rector that he found favor in the sight of him both as a staff and student. Immediately after graduation this young man was promoted as the Liberian of the university, many of coworkers was congratulating him little did he know that these same people would later be his doom?  One faithful day this young man came to his office with his food park from home, he shares the same office with other junior staffs. That very day was on a Friday, he was supposed to go pick up his son who attends the university’s primary school which is not far from his office.  As he was leaving his office, he kept his food park right inside his office drawer without locking it. Shortly after, he came back with his son and right immediately he fetched the food from the drawer and he and his son ate the food together. Few minutes’ later father and son started bleeding, coughing out blood while eating, they were both rushed to the hospital. Unfortunately the father died, but the boy survived, it was later found that the food that they were eating was poisoned. This is the height of wickedness and evil manipulation in the office; none of his immediate coworkers sharing the same office attended his funeral.

So one has to be very careful in dealing with people even in the office or place of work, never leave your consumables or private properties open where anyone could reach it. If you must leave your office, leave with your food (consumables) or safely lock it, the world we live in today is filled with wicked and desperate and mean people.black-professionals

TIPS ON HOW BEST A SINGLE LADY SHOULD SOCIALIZE IN HER 30S

Featured

single

The social life style of ladies in thier 20s should be quite different from ladies in thier 30s, when a lady in her 30s socialize like she is in her 20s, most people would likely perceive a negative perspective on such a lady and she will eventually attract the wrong people to herself. Ladies in her 20s are predominantly carefree, they are attracted and moved by materialism, love to explore excessively, the drive to catch fun is very high that’s why you find them mostly in places like late night clubs, parties, being with numerous companies and associates.

Now does it means that ladies in their 30s should be left out of socializing ? The answer is simple as “No”, here are six ways a single lady in her 30s should socialize without attracting the wrong people and perception of her personality…..

1. Always conceal the search for your life partner: Ladies, don’t make it resounding or too obvious that you are single and searching, this is the point where most matured ladies get it all wrong. When you make it too obvious that you are in search of a spouse or life partner, it sends immediately sends the wrong signal to that potential spouse, it will at the long run make him feel as though he is doing you a big favor by dating or marrying you. Reduce to the max every form of desperation and insecurity, instead employ tactically the good old prank ladies in their 20s uses to keep men abate “The hard to get game”.

2. Embrace and Get devoted to a Belief:  Africans most especially Nigerians are a sucker for religion and spiritualism, you can easily pierce through a harden criminals heart if you appeal to his own religion or belief. For the Christians become a devoted church worker with some swag and class, not the “Mgbeke or SU” ones looking so unkempt and without a drive and passion for life and the same goes to other religions and believes.

3. Attending Occasions and Events: Attend more of classy weddings and business meetings “Alone”, majority of the potential spouse you get at 30s are mostly gentlemen and most times shy, so give them all the opportunity to come approach you. Reduce all that girls large round table sittings when you attend events and occasions, give a smooth avenue to reach you. Note not all men are that confident to fish you out of sitting of group of friends.

4. Reduce Luxuries :  Avoid looking too expensive when going to work, event or occasions, just dress responsibly, cute and smart. Cut down all forms of flamboyance and looking too flashy, one of the ladies I respect most when it comes to this aspect is Nollywood Rita Dominic, though she might be rich but she doesn’t look too expensive, she just look smart and beautiful all the time. Ladies make yourself approachable and not looking like a demigoddess.

5. Embrace the “one man MOPOL” Phrase: Reduce and avoid too much companies , most especially guys, avoid the “friend zoned guys” those guys that loves hanging around ladies that they are not dating or having a relationship with, don’t allow them deny you of a potential suitor. These guys will clinch to you to the extent that people would start thinking if something is going on between you both, not knowing that he just using you as a showoff to his ladies.

6.  Take a chill pill: And last be very humble, polite but not stupid, if you have to talk, talk in a polite manner, avoid loose and derogatory words in the public. Get a natural shock absorber, so example when someone accidentally steps on you, don’t allow all hell loose, just accept the sorry or the least you could say is ” please be more careful next time” and not “are you blind….. ?

Do all this and you will get suitors all attracted to you, but the problem would be how to identify the right suitor, in my next post I will analyze and break down how to identify a potential marriage suitor. So watch out guys

Understanding Temperaments and Relating it with Careers

Featured

Understanding human temperaments is the key to towards achieving excellent human relationship, understanding human temperaments is also very vital in choosing careers. Many out there are presently practicing careers that are totally not in line with their temperament, those who successfully choose and practice careers that are line with their temperament are most times called Genius or they most times very successful in their chosen careers. Today I will try to help us identify and analyze these temperaments and relate them with the various practicable careers (I will use Nigerian celebrities as a case study).

Denrele-main

Sanguine: These are the category of people I termed “Hyper-Active”, it is never a dull moment with this kind of people and they lighten up every dull atmosphere. They are extremely extroverts, talkative and display body movements to go in sync with their conversation, they will even first greet you if you fail to greet them. One very good thing about them is that they have no space to harbor grudges against anyone, they say it as they see it and their weakness is isolation, they can’t afford to be isolated. Not finding who to dramatize or talk to can be disastrous to them, it can even lead to depression. These set of people are the party freaks, they love gatherings where they can have the opportunity to exhibit their dramatic skills. They extremely love being the center of attraction

 

Careers that best suits The Sanguines

 

  • Entertainers
  • Compere
  • Comedians
  • Pastors with Charisma
  • Actors
  • Radio and TV personalities
  • Marketers
  • Public speakers
  • Dancers
  • Tourist guides

 

Some Sanguine Celebrities whose careers are in sync with their temperaments

Dbanj, Chris Talker, Harts ( The little man), Chris Talker, Harts( The little man), Eddie Murphy, Chris Rock, I Go Die, Seyi Law, Derenle Edun, Saka,Tosin Buknor, Nedu (Wazobia Fm), Fela Durotoye, Pastor Chris, that dude who played a pastor in the movie titled “Coming to Amerfica”

When their temperament is channeled into negative use

 

Public Nuisance and Gossips

Sani-Abacha

 

Choleric: They are the authoritative people, most times serious, strict and disciplinarians; I termed these categories of people “The Drivers”. They are extroverts who don’t take craps and no for an answer, they enjoy giving orders, commands and rules, very ambitious they are natural leaders. Most of them are the perfectionist type and they love things going their own way, you start becoming their enemy if you don’t abide by their rules and their best friends are those who are loyal to them, those who rarely antagonize them. They love being listened to and are obsessed with power; they have this strong energetic drive that makes people subjective to them. When it comes to more important public speeches they can take anyone to the cleaners, they are good orators.

 

Careers that best suits The Choleric

 

  • Force
  • Politician
  • Head of departments and Organizations
  • Strict Teachers
  • Ruler
  • Aggressive Pastors
  • Project Managers
  • Rappers

 When their temperament is channeled into negative use 

 

Hardened Criminals, Dictatorship, Terrorists, Rebellion  

 

 

 

melancholy

 

Melancholy: I termed these categories of people “The cool headed folks” very reserved kind of people, they don’t like wahala at all. They can be very analytical that is very good at analyzing and interpretation of written words, figures and pictures these folks are introverts, they enjoy and regard every bit time of time they spend alone. You want to become their permanent enemy, just deny them of their privacy, space (They are obsessed with space) and time alone. You don’t expect this category of people to first greet you if they are not that close to you, they don’t say too much but they can say more in words, figures and pictures, they are the creative geniuses. The Melancholies always try as much as possible not to pass their boundaries; they always mind their own business. In whatever you do please don’t try to push these categories of people to the wall because their outburst is always crazy, they really don’t know how to react or exchange words, it’s either they hit you physically or do something that would really hurt you. The very good thing about them is that they always tend to do excellently well at jobs the requires much concentration

Phlegmatic 

They are the extreme kinds of introverts, they so love hiding inside their shell, they are the very cautious, careful and sometimes fearful individuals. This one’s don’t like “wahala” (problems) at all at all, you can live with them for ages and not have a single problem but don’t just bring a Sanguine to live with them because you will frustrate life out of them. Phlegmatics are very unsociable, they love being by their selves most times, you will never find them starting up a conversation, for example you ask them “how are you ?” they will reply you “fine” and just stop there until you ask them another question. They can be trusted, loyal, calm, patient, and good observers, they are not thrilled by the flashy things of this world, and moderation is their watch word. The Phlegmatics are very conservative but not highly analytically as the Melancholies because they would easily loose interest on things that stresses them much. They most times contented with what they have not very ambitious like the Cholerics and they don’t enjoy speaking to a crowd or being the center of attraction

I Regret Slashing My Girlfriend’s Neck With Razor Blade – Lagos Barber

Featured

Eighteen-year-old Boluwatife Ajadi had been looking forward to enjoying the New Year festivity with her family in peace and happiness, but she spent it in agony on a hospital bed, hanging on to life.

Boluwatife, who finished secondary school in September 2014, fell victim of a vicious attack by a scorned suitor, a young man who had been seeking her hand in a romantic friendship, around 11pm on December 30, 2014.

But the culprit, 21-year-old Sakiru Buari, insisted that Boluwatife was his girlfriend.

When our correspondent visited Samas Hospital, a private health facility in Baruwa area of Lagos, there was no way of speaking with Boluwatife. She had been unable to speak since the attack, her family said. The girl had been induced to sleep by the hospital staff.

Her elder sister, Adeola, who narrated what happened, said she had feared that her sister might not survive the attack which left a long and deep gash on her neck.

A picture of the fresh wound showed part of the girl’s neck, flesh that is almost the size of a palm, hanging loose.

“The man used a razor to cut her neck,” Adeola began.

“There was no doubt that he actually wanted to kill her. It all started about 11pm when we were hearing a noise outside our house on Alhaja Wasilat Street, Baruwa. Someone was shouting ‘thief, thief’ and we all rushed outside but I did not realise my sister was not inside with us.

“When I went outside, I saw someone staggering towards us holding her neck. She was struggling to call for help. By the time I realised it was my sister, she collapsed on the ground.”

Saturday PUNCH learnt that soon after the attack, neighbours who had heard Boluwatife’s initial alert for help, were able to catch Buari who had attempted to flee at the time.

“When they caught him, the man was even saying that he regretted that she did not die. All I could do was scream for help as I went to where my sister collapsed.

“At that time of the night, nobody was willing to help us. No vehicle stopped for us to take her to the hospital. At a point, I had to go to the middle of the road pleading for help.

to stop bleeding during treatment at a

“Eventually, a young man at the scene picked her up from the ground and carried her towards the nearest hospital with the help of other eyewitnesses.”

By the time Boluwatife got to the hospital, she had lost so much blood that her soaked clothes were dripping blood, it was learnt.

Banging on the door of the hospital with screams, those who carried Boluwatife were admitted into the compound as the doctor on duty went to work on the barely conscious girl.

Adeola, said she had never seen the man who attacked her sister before that day and was sure he was not her sister’s boyfriend.

“The man must not escape justice,” she said. Their father, Gabriel, said he was not at home at the time of the attack but could not imagine what could have pushed the man to want to kill her daughter.

He said, “I even thought she was dead when I was called to the scene and saw the amount of blood on the ground.

“The place looked like a slab where an animal had been slaughtered. We are lucky that residents of our street called the beast who did this to my daughter.

“He said it to my face that he had no regret for what he did and was even angry that she survived the attack. At least, we are happy that he had confessed to the attack and we cannot wait to see him off to jail.”

The police at the Ipaja Division, Baruwa, have taken Buari into custody with promises that the suspect would be prosecuted appropriately since he had confessed to the crime.

The Divisional Police Officer, Mr. Ajewole Adebayo, a Chief Superintendent of Police, said Buari would be transferred to the Department of Criminal investigations, Yaba, Lagos, as soon as his men had finished their part of the investigations.

When our correspondent and child and woman rights activist, Esther Ogwu, visited the police division, Buari, who was still wearing the clothes soiled with bloodstains, had caked blood on his hands.

“I don’t know what came over me at the time,” he said. The young man who said he was from Abeokuta, Ogun State, explained that he dropped out of school in senior secondary year one.

“She is my girlfriend and I don’t have any reason to kill her. We did not fight. I just don’t know the spirit that came over me at the time I brought out a razor and slashed her neck. I know now that what I did was
terrible,” he said, as he looked away with.
Buari said both his parents were dead and that the only known relation he had was in Abeokuta.

He said he works as a barber even though he did not have a shop of his own.

Ogwu, who has taken over the girl’s case, said that the most important evidence of the case would be the explanation of the victim herself.

“Unfortunately, she is not in any condition to speak at this time. But like every case of assault involving women, we would ensure that the girl gets justice in this case,” she said.

Reports reaching us is saying AirAsia flight that went missing
early yesterday morning may be at the bottom of the sea.

Indonesian officials have set a search party for the missing plane, hunting for the missing plane . They have spotted objects in the sea believed to be wreckage from
the plane which was carrying 155 passengers and 7 crew members.

Just this morning an Australian Orion aircraft detected suspicious objects near Nangka island, about 160 kilometres south-west of Pangkalan Bun, near central Kalimantan, which is about 1,120 kilometres from the location where the plane lost contact while an Indonesian helicopter saw two oily spots in the search area a few hours later, this is according to Indonesian officials.

Experts are suggesting that the aircraft was likely flying too slow to avoid a thunderstorm they encountered and this caused the plane to stall
and crash.

An interview with a Nigerian gay activist, speaking on how he was almost killed being a gay

Featured

As the struggle for gay freedom in Africa is fought Bisi is one of the foremost gay activist fighting for the gay community in Africa he had an interview with NPR.com , 29 year old Nigerian Gay rights activist, Bisi Alimi, who was the first person to come out as gay on Nigerian TV, he talked about the challenges of living as a gay
Nigerian man, living with the HIV virus, his relationship with his immediate family members
and also about the Nigerian anti-gay law.

Checkout the expository interview below…

Alimi’s acting career was just starting to take off when his sexuality stole the spotlight. The
student newspaper at University of Lagos, where he was studying theater, threatened to publish a
photo of him with his then boyfriend. So Alimi beat them to the punch. He went on “New Dawn
with Funmi,” one of the most popular talk shows in Nigeria, and challenged a long-held belief that
homosexuality was brought to Africa by white colonizers. That was also the year Alimi was
diagnosed with HIV. Suddenly, his home country no longer saw him as a rising star. Alimi lost his roles on TV and on stage, many of his friends shunned him and the police even arrested him on unexplained charges.

In 2007, things got worse. He was detained at the airport on his way back from the United Kingdom, where he gave an interview to BBC
Network Africa, and was released two days later. Then a group of men entered his home and attempted to kill him. Alimi fled to the U.K. and hasn’t been back to Nigeria since.

Why are you happy about Nigeria’s harsh anti-gay law?

I see the law as a catalyst for change for good in Nigeria. You don’t understand what it is like to
fight a beast that you cannot see. Before the signing of that law, between 95 and 98 percent of Nigerians were in support of it. The latest poll says 88 percent of Nigerians now support the law. That’s a 10 percent drop. Some people who are not LGBT are now saying, “Did we just support a law that criminalizes people … for falling in love?” [When] you see that your uncle or cousin is gay, it kind of changes the conversation.

Speaking of family, how does your family feel about your identity?

I’m in a relationship that I can’t talk to my parents about — it’s like a big elephant in the room. But [the fact that] they want to accept me [as gay] is a form of support.
I was diagnosed [with HIV] in 2004, and I’ve never discussed it with my parents. This is my personal life, and I don’t want them to get
involved with it. Many times when I struggle with the challenges of being gay and being [HIV] positive, even living in diaspora and so many other things, I just really want to have somebody I can cry to who has blood lineage but I just said no.

So who is in your support network?

Mostly close friends. Many times it’s people I don’t know. I remember one incident when I was
at my university. I was going back to my room at night and I was stopped by two guys. They were
making very derogatory statements and becoming really aggressive. There was a [student] coming. So I raised my voice: “What did I do to you, why are you guys so frustrated with me?” ]The student] stopped and said, “What’s
going on?” I told her these guys were attacking me, and they said, “Oh he’s gay, he’s a faggot.” She just looked at them and said, “What if he’s a faggot? What’s your problem?” She stood up to them. These are the unsung heroes of my existence because anything could have happened that night.

Back in 2007, a group of guys tried to kill you and that’s when you fled the country. But did you ever want to leave Nigeria before then?

I was lucky enough to go through a 2-hour ordeal of being beaten and almost being shot in the head and escaping. If those guys are still alive, they might have read one or two of my interviews. I wonder how they feel that they
almost killed me. But I felt that leaving was never a choice until my mother said, “Do you still have reason [to stay]? I think you should leave.”

How did you react when when you were diagnosed with HIV?

By 2001 I started working in HIV prevention because I lost my best friend [to the disease]. So I was kind of aware. That was why my diagnosis was a shock to me. I broke down and started crying and thought like this is the end of my life because I have seen my friends die. It’s such a big thing that even within the gay community, if you’re positive, that’s the end of it. Nobody wants to talk to you or date you, but you become the story everyone wants to talk about. So I didn’t tell anybody. I carried it for three years before leaving Nigeria. I didn’t start medication until 2009.

If you had known about the treatments and support for HIV then, would you have reacted
differently?

No, because then I might still be in Nigeria. And I still wouldn’t want to talk about it because it would still be a death sentence. Treatment is a big challenge and people [in Nigeria] still don’t have access to it. And the support system is still
not there because of the stigma against gay men — it’s a belief that [HIV] is a punishment from God. So it’s very difficult to exist with that system.

How would you assess the progress across Africa in providing HIV treatment?

We are still betraying generations when it comes to HIV prevention and treatment. Many people still need access to this treatment and we still have children being born with the virus when we know we can prevent it. We’re lacking political willpower and funding to HIV projects. It has become a political game.

Being an advocate gives you a different kind of stage than acting does. If you had a choice, would you go back in to acting?

I think I studied theater because I was pretty much a drama queen [laughs]. Acting is my biggest passion. The unfortunate thing is that it’s something I would never touch again because it left a big scar in my life. Even when I did try to go back to acting, I kept thinking, “If you keep doing this, you’re going to bring up media interest again.” I have media interest now but it’s very humane. It’s not about who I kissed last night or who I’m hanging out with.

So you’re done with theater?

If there’s anything I want to go back to, it’s acting. I want to be back on stage dancing and acting, but I’m also very scared of it.

The summary of it all is that homosexuality is yet to be accepted in Africa most especially Nigeria, you are seen as a weirdo when you are gay in Nigeria .

And now Shmurda’s lawyer Greenberg is talking and really blazing hot, he reportedly said

“I’ve analyzed the indictment down to the bone. It’s just talking. Bobby
shouldn’t be charged with anything. I have told your colleagues in the media, the indictment is a bunch of b*******.
The first 41 pages are just kids talking, in not even English. Bobby isn’t charged with anything except talk in the indictment.”

And he continued saying

“The government hates rap and the government hates rappers,” he declared, while he also insisted that he is “not going to let them crucify Bobby Shmurda.”

If Bobby Shmurda is found guilty of five of the eight charges brought against him, he could spend between eight and 25 years in

North Korea blast US calling Obama a monkey

Featured

This is really epic, North Korea calling President Barack Obama “a
monkey” and blamed the U.S. on Saturday for shutting down its Internet amid the hacking row
over the comedy “The Interview.”
North Korea has denied involvement in a crippling cyberattack on Sony Pictures but has expressed fury over the comedy depicting an assassination of its leader Kim Jong Un.

After Sony Pictures initially called off the release in a decision criticized by Obama, the movie has opened this week.

On Saturday, the North’s powerful National Defense Commission, the country’s top governing body led by Kim, said that Obama was behind the release of “The Interview.” It described the movie as illegal, dishonest and reactionary.

“Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a monkey in a tropical forest,” an unidentified spokesman at the commission’s
Policy Department said in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.

“If the U.S. is to persistently insist that the hacking attack was made by the DPRK, the U.S. should produce evidence without fail, though belatedly,” the statement publish by KCNA said.

He also accused Washington for intermittent outages of North Korea websites this week, after
the U.S. had promised to respond to the Sony hack.

There was no immediate reaction from the White House on Saturday. According to the North Korea commission’s spokesman, “the U.S., a big country, started
disturbing the Internet operation of major media of the DPRK, not knowing shame like children playing a tag.”

The commission said the movie was the results of a hostile U.S. policy toward North Korea, and
threatened the U.S. with unspecified consequences.

North Korea and the U.S. remain technically in a state of war because the 1950-53 Korean War
ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.

The rivals also are locked in an international standoff over the North’s nuclear and missile programs and its alleged human rights abuses. The U.S. stations about 28,500 troops in South Korea as deterrence against North Korean aggression.

North Korea’s Internet links restored amid U.S. hacking dispute

Featured

North Korean leader Kim gives field guidance at the Kim Jong Suk Pyongyang Textile Mill in this undated photo released by KCNA in Pyongyang

As the internet saga between US, Sony and North Korea continues ,North Korea experienced a complete Internet outage for hours before links were restored on Tuesday, but U.S. officials said Washington was not involved.

U.S.-based Dyn, a company that monitors Internet infrastructure, said the reason for the outage was not known but could range from technological glitches to a hacking attack. Several U.S. officials close to the investigations of the attack on Sony Pictures said the U.S. government had not taken any cyber action against Pyongyang.

U.S. President Barack Obama had vowed on Friday to respond to the major cyberattack, which he blamed on North Korea, “in a place and time and manner that we choose.”

Dyn said North Korea’s Internet links were unstable on Monday and the country later went completely offline. Links were restored at 0146 GMT on Tuesday, and the possibilities for the outage could be attacks by individuals, a hardware failure, or even that it was done by North Korea itself, experts said.

Matthew Prince, CEO of U.S.-based CloudFlare which protects websites from web-based attacks, said the fact that North Korea’s Internet was back up “is pretty good evidence that the outage wasn’t caused by a state-sponsored attack, otherwise it’d likely still be down for the count”.

Almost all of North Korea’s Internet links and traffic pass through China and it dismissed any suggestion that it was involved as “irresponsible”.

Meanwhile, South Korea, which remains technically at war with the North, said it could not rule out the involvement of its isolated neighbor in a cyberattack on its nuclear power plant operator. It said only non-critical data was stolen and operations were not at risk, but had asked for U.S. help in investigating.

South Korean President Park Geun-hye said on Tuesday the leak of data from the nuclear operator was a “grave situation” that was unacceptable as a matter of national security, but she did not mention any involvement of North Korea.

North Korea is one of the least-connected nations in the world, and the effects of the Internet outage would have been minimal.

Very few of its 24 million people have access to the Internet. However, major websites, including those of the KCNA state news agency, the main Rodong Sinmun newspaper and the main external public relations company went down for hours.

“North Korea has significantly less Internet to lose, compared to other countries with similar populations: Yemen (47 networks), Afghanistan (370 networks), or Taiwan (5,030 networks),” Dyn Research said in a report.

“And unlike these countries, North Korea maintains dependence on a single international provider, China Unicom.”

NO PROOF, CHINA SAYS

The United States requested China’s help last Thursday, asking it to shut down servers and routers used by North Korea that run through Chinese networks, senior administration officials told Reuters.

The United States also asked China to identify any North Korean hackers operating in China and, if found, send them back to North Korea. It wants China to send a strong message to Pyongyang that such acts will not be tolerated, the officials said.

The Chinese Foreign Ministry said on Monday it opposed all forms of cyberattacks but there was no proof that North Korea was responsible for the Sony hacking.

North Korea has denied it was behind the cyberattack on Sony and has vowed to hit back against any U.S. retaliation, threatening the White House and the Pentagon..

The hackers said they were incensed by a Sony comedy about a fictional assassination of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, which the movie studio has now pulled from general release.

China is North Korea’s only major ally and would be central to any U.S. efforts to crack down on the isolated state. But the United States has also accused China of cyber spying in the past and a U.S. official has said the attack on Sony could have used Chinese servers to mask its origin.

North Korea’s internet is down, all thanks to US

The saga between Sony, North Korea and the US government stiffens with more controversies, here is  a brief summary by LIB
Sony Pictures released a movie called The Interview, a comedy about a fictional assassination of North Korean leader, Kim Jong Un.. North Korean didn’t find it funny and hacked into Sony’s computers, rendering thousands of computers inoperable and forced Sony to take its entire computer network offline. That wasn’t enough, they then threatened terror attack on US citizens if Sony doesn’t cancel showing the movie, forcing Sony to pull the interview from theaters and losing almost $200m. Then the US govt got involved and told Sony to go ahead and release the movie, that they don’t take lightly to threats and promised to retaliate for the attack on Sony. It looks like they’ve kept their to promise. North Korea is currently offline. funny isn’t it ?

“Internet connectivity between North Korea and the outside world is currently suffering one of its worst outages in recent memory, suggesting that the country may be enduring a mass cyber attack a few days after President Obama warned the US would launch a “proportional response” to North Korea’s hack against Sony

North Korea, which has four official networks connecting the country to the Internet — all of which route through China — began experiencing intermittent problems yesterday and today went completely black, according to Doug Madory, director of Internet analysis at Dyn Research in Hanover, New Hampshire.” Bloomberg reports.

BREAKING: Nigerian Military Sentences 54 Soldiers To Death For Mutiny

Featured

A military court in Nigeria has sentenced 54 soldiers to death after they were found guilty of mutiny.

The soldiers were convicted Wednesday in Abuja on a two-count charge of criminal conspiracy to commit mutiny. Represented by Femi Falana (SAN), the brunt of the defense’s case boldly argued that the soldiers were not guilty of mutiny as accused.

“My Lords, contrary to the general belief in military circles, protest by soldiers does not constitute mutiny,” Falana argued in his defense, obtained by SaharaReporters. Imploring the court to uphold precedent as established in the case Cpl Segun Oladele & 22 Ors. v Nigerian Army supra, Falana said “Can we safely conclude that the prosecution has proved all the ingredients in this charge of mutiny against the accused soldiers?”

“The answer is in the negative,” he said.

“In the instant case, the Prosecution did not prove that the order given to carry out a military act followed the standard or proper procedure of giving such an order; that the accused soldiers deliberately and by collusion disobeyed the order; that the disobedience and the acts strike at the foundation of discipline in the Army; that the accused persons used violence or threat of violence; and that the acts of the convicts ‘were deliberately designed to put the Nigerian Army in imminent danger’.”

Despite a thorough 48-page defense, the 54 soldiers were sentenced to death today.

Four other soldiers were acquitted.

He then later posted his experience on Facebook, explaining to his followers what happened and even shared a photo of the note he sent to the man and a picture of the couple at the game.
The images have since gone viral with many questioning if he was right to wade into a complete stranger’s relationship.

Lye claimed in his post that the woman kept the phone screen tilted out of eyesight of the man seated next to her, and would even shut it off and put it away when he engaged her in conversation.

Feeling sympathetic for the man seated in front of him, who he believes was being cheated on, Lye got up near the end of the game to find a pen and piece of paper to write the stranger a note.
When the man got up to leave, Lye handed the piece of paper to him and said to read it when he got home.
Lye later took to Facebook to post an image of the note and the woman who was was seated in front of him, showing the back of her head with her phone out, writing a text.
The pictures have since gone viral online and many have called Lye out for interjecting himself into the stranger’s relationship.
Lye has since defended his actions to  saying he usually likes to stay out of other people’s business, but overheard a few rude comments the woman made Mad World News,to the man she was with that made him pity her partner.
He says at one point in the game, another spectator commented on the size of a portion of fries saying: ‘Wow! For the price they charge for fries here, that’s pretty small. They barely give you anything.’
The woman in question allegedly quipped back: ‘It’s okay, I’m [used] to small things’.
Others criticized Lye for possibly putting the pregnant woman in harms way, pointing out that her boyfriend could have been abusive.

Meet lina Medina the Girl Who Gave Birth At Age 5

Featured

Lina Medina is a Peruvian woman who is the youngest confirmed mother in medical history, giving birth at the age of five years, seven months and 17 days. When she was five years old, Lina Medina of Ticrapo, Huancavelica Region, Peru was brought to a hospital by her parents because of her increasing abdominal size. Lina’s parents suspected that their daughter was suffering from a tumor in her stomach, but doctors were instead shocked to discover that the young female was in her seventh month of pregnancy. Her parents were shocked, but they later revealed that their daughter had strangely begun menstruating when she was only eight months old and had prominent bosoms by the time she was four.
Dr. Gerardo Lozada took Lina to Peru so that other specialists could confirm that she was indeed expecting. That move expectedly attracted a lot of attention. In fact, a North American filmmaking company offered Lina and her family $5,000 for the rights to document the unbelievable story. The offer was rejected.

Meanwhile, at Peru, the original diagnosis of Lina’s advanced pregnancy was upheld, and on May 14, 1939, Lina delivered a healthy baby boy, Gerardo Medina, via caesarian section. Doctors who performed the surgery noted that Lina already had fully mature sexual organs at the time she gave birth to her son. The boy, by the way, was raised to believe that Lina was actually her sister, but at ten years of age, he discovered that Lina was really his mother. Nevertheless, they continued to treat each other like brother and sister.

On the question of who had gotten Lina pregnant, her father, Tiburelo Medina, was actually arrested on suspicion of child sexual abuse. However, he was later released due to lack of evidence. In fact, even Lina herself did not seem to have any idea regarding the circumstances of her impregnation. Nevertheless, she managed to live her life quite normally, completing her schooling and working as a secretary, although Gerardo died at forty due to bone marrow disease.
