"Fed. Govt. denies hiring Stephen Davis as Boko Haram negotiator"?

Who is deceiving who in this Nigeria? “FG has denied claims by Australian hostage negotiator, Stephen Davis, that he was hired by the Nigerian Government to negotiate for the release of Chibok girls”. This is what I just read and I'm amazed. Hang on a second, if the federal government did not hire him, then who did? The news in Nigeria can be very confusing. One moment they are hiring a negotiator and the next moment they are not. What or who do we believe? Do they just like confusing the citizens or what?

"SON & Fake Products" - Etcetera

I always look forward to this guy's articles because they get me going. Happy people, I hope you are enjoying your weekend. I bring you an interesting read from Etcetera on Nigeria and fake products. Enjoy the article below...

I am sure every Nigerian must have at a point rained curses on the Standard Organisation of Nigeria for its failure to fulfil its statutory duties to forestall the importation and local manufacture of fake and substandard products. And I can also bet that no Nigerian businessman or woman would accept blames for the substandard products in their shops. So who’s to blame for the ridicule the nation is subjected to as a result of fake products?

An emotional Ali Modu Sheriff breaks down as he attempts to dissociate self from Boko Haram [photos]

Aww Alimodu Sheriff, former Borno state governor went all emotional and couldn’t help breaking down in tears during a press conference in Abuja in a desperate attempt to disassociate self from Boko Haram. Sheriff was named by Australian negotiator Stephen Davis as a major sponsor of the sect. He ferociously denied this accusation at the press conference.

What can I say? In Nigeria one cannot really be sure of these things.

Anyway, please remain happy and spread happiness around guys. Xoxo

"We are raped and molested by our own children" - Imo Christian mothers cry out

Christian Mothers in Mgbishii, a rural community in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area in Imo state are desperate for help regarding the terrible situation they live in. 

According to Vanguard, the women are complaining of lack of security and the fear they have to live in every day because of the alleged crimes committed by their children in the community.

"We are raped and molested by our own children. You cannot come to Mgbuishii and return home safely because of the crime rate" the women said.

The women claim they have complained to the state government and other agents about the high rate of crimes committed by their children but their complaints have fallen on deaf ears.  

Photo of the day: #BRINGBACK becomes election campaign slogan

Hmmm what a nice use of intertextuality! The #bringback slogan which is associated with the kidnapped Chibok girls' “#bringbackourgils” protest has now become a political slogan. I just love Naija. We recycle and reuse anything popular in order to access the public.

The slogan is now used for Johnathan’s campaign but no, Johnathan is not missing he simply wants to be brought back for a second term. I reserve my comment on this and will only laugh. Do you guys think this is an appropriate slogan for him? 

Please remain happy and spread happiness around. Don't forget to protect yourself and your loved ones from Ebola virus. Xoxo. See another photo after the cut

Woman dragged to Lagos court for jilting lover

Relationship drama can be so interesting to read! I think being single is the best thing that can happen to anyone in this life. When you are single, drama just stays away from you; there’ll be no one to drag you to court just because you have decided to end the relationship. Anyway, it seems some people can’t help being single and sometimes they get unfortunate like 43-year-old events planner, Omolola Shittu who is being accused by ex-lover of stealing. Omolola denies claims of stealing from him, saying that she is just dealing with his pain because she ended her affair with Unachukwu. Read her detailed account as reported by Vanguard after the cut…

Ebola scare at Lagos Airport as British national slumps and dies on arrival

According to reports, many passengers took to their heels yesterday evening as a high ranking British national reportedly slumped and died shortly after landing at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport

Eket, Akwa Ibom State records first Ebola Case - Reports

Oh no! I will never understand why people keep deluding themselves with religion. According to reports, one of the Doctors at Emmanuel General Hospital in Eket, Akwa Ibom State claims that a corpse that arrived the hospital tested positive to the deadly Ebola virus.

Information revealed that the man was kept in a church till he died and the wife is currently sick. The family members that brought the corpse have refused to disclose the name of the church and the wife’s name out of fear.

Snakes Invade Fed. Govt. Girls' College Hostel in Akwa Ibom State

Snakes invade college dormitory! I’m not sure why the federal government pays very little attention to education in Nigeria. Public schools’ buildings are in a state and one wonders how anyone can even learn in such an environment. I really respect the students who still manage to excel academically in spite of these harsh circumstances. I just read about this now and it’s really disturbing. I attended this school and the situation wasn’t this bad but clearly, it has deteriorated. I hope that the authorities do something about this because not everyone in Nigeria can afford to send their kids to private schools. I think every child has the right to a decent education free of snakes. Read the story after the cut as reported by Punch online

"The Celebitchy" - Etcetera gives his take on the famous Omoni Oboli's blue dress

Happy people, Etcetera has given his take on the famous blue dress nollywood actress/producer wore to the presidential villa for her movie premiere and I have decided to share the article here. I heard the actress apologized and said she didn't know the dress was revealing. Hmmm she probably doesn't have a mirror but what's my own. Anyway, read the article below. Have a great weekend and remain happy dearies. Xoxo...

The article:

Remember Monica Lewinsky? If you do, then you should also remember the “Blue Dress” she wore to the white house that got President Clinton, the most powerful man in the world and the then president of the United States of America almost impeached. And 16 years on, just when everyone thought the seductive blue dress has been locked away in a highly secured vault somewhere at the pentagon; it reared its dangerous head at Nigeria’s presidential villa, worn by a nollywood actress for her movie premiere. Only this time, it was seductively patterned as a strip wear.

New case of Ebola reported in Nigeria as greedy doctor dies of virus in Port Harcourt

I was excited that Nigeria has contained a virus but today's reports reveal the contrary as a new case surfaces in Port Harcourt. A doctor who secretly treated a diplomat, who met with late Patrick Sawyer in Lagos, has died from the virus. Apparently, the doctor was secretly treating the diplomat in a hotel in Port Harcourt. The diplomat survived the virus but the doctor has reported died and the wife is currently ill. His greedy act has also led to about 70 people being quarantined. The hospital, Good Heart Hospital and the hotel has been shut down.

Nigeria defeats Ebola, just one case left - Health Minister

There seem to be some victory over Ebola for Nigeria and hope for Nigerians. According to the Minister of Health, Prof. Onyebuchi Chukwu, the situation seems to be under control as the number of Ebola cases has been successfully reduced to just one.

Addressing newsmen today August 26th in Abuja, Prof. Onyebuchi said only one patient is still at the Isolation center in Lagos. Out of the thirteen confirm Ebola cases, five of those infected died while seven responded to treatment and were discharged.

This is really interesting news. I can now breathe and stop worrying about my friends and family members. Hmm maybe I can also consider homecoming. But let’s hope that tomorrow’s headline won’t say “presidency denies the reports that Ebola virus has been successfully contained”. In Nigeria, anything can happen.

Anyway, for now read the minister's statement below and let’s have some faith…

Ebola: Zmapp works for an American doctor but not a Liberian doctor as he dies of virus

Happy people, so according to reports, the famous Ebola experimental drug Zmapp that saved American doctor’s life could not save a Liberian doctor’s life. The National Deputy Chief Medical Doctor in Liberia, Abraham Borbor, who contracted the deadly virus while attending to Ebola patients at the John F. Kennedy Medical Centre in Monrovia, has died from the virus despite taking the experimental drug, Zmapp.

Oh no! See graphic photos of what madam did to househelp in Abuja

Oh no! Someone needs to wake me up pleaseeeee. This is so sad. How can a person in her right senses do this to someone's child in the name of discipline? I am so disturbed by this image.

Happy people, I just read about this wicked and babaric act now. Apparently, a woman in Gwarimpa area of Abuja asked her househelp (domestic staff) to sit on a burning electric cooker because she allegedly urinated in bed. The little girl was rushed to the hospital with this damage. I hope that this woman is made to pay for this act. I don’t think she deserves to live among humans. Happy people, what would you do if someone did this to your child, sister or anyone? More photos after the cut...

WAEC Failure: who is to blame for poor performance of students?

Happy people, I have been reading different things online about how poorly Nigerian students did at WAEC this year. The first thing that came to my mind was, how won't they fail when they don't even have a good learning environment and enough support to excel academically?

Chibok girls' parents lose hope on missing children, seek closure of case

Parents of the kidnapped Chibok school girls said they want the case closed since the search for the girls has not produced any tangible result.

The parents seem to have given up any hope of being reunited with their children again. They also believe that the girls are no longer alive and as a result, have urged the federal government to bring the girls’ corpses for honourable burial.

#ILOVENAIJA: have a laugh plsssss

Happy people, when you have too many problems and you are Nigerian, all you really need to do is laugh about it. I have been having a laugh all evening because of the things I read on social media about Nigerian. Well since I love sharing happiness, I thought I should share this with you.

What can you do about the situation of Nigeria than laugh? Girls have been missing for over three months now, we are battling boko haram, people are suggesting the creation of more states, you travel by air and arrive at sea and the list goes on. Please laugh about it and remain happy. Xoxo.
