Would you rather wear weaves or your natural hair?

Personally, I would opt for a weave. I would rather rock a weave because it is more versatile than my natural hair. There are so many hair styles I can do with a weave that I cannot do with my natural hair. I think a person can do more styles with a weave.

Do you have a favourite hairstyle?

University of Oxford Study Says Women With Big Buttocks Are Smarter & Healthier

Scientists at the University of Oxford have uncovered evidence that women with big butts are not only the most intelligent, but also the most resistant to chronic illnesses.

The study examined the fat accumulated in different parts of a woman’s body, and found that women with phat buttocks were less likely to get diabetes, since they are more likely to produce hormones to metabolize sugar.
What’s more, women with big booties tended to have lower levels of cholesterol and fewer heart problems, according to the study.

The upcoming Black update will introduce Bluetooth 4.0 to all remaining Windows Phone 8 Lumia hardware, as well as the Glance always-on screen tech, and RAW camera support for the Lumia 1020 and 1520.

An herbalist, Ifatade Elegbeleye has been arrested and charged before an Ojokoro Magistrates’ Court, Lagos, Nigeria for allegedly defrauding a woman seeking a husband. Although this is not the first time such is happening but this case took another dimension

He supposedly swindled her of N2m and raped her at his shrine.

The 31-year old professional, Temidayo Akinwale, who is now with child, met her fate when she contacted the herbalist to help her from strange spirits that prevented her from getting a husband.

The incident happened at Elegbeyele’s shrine established at Ayobo street in Ayobo-Ipaja local area.

The accused was arraigned on a six-count ascribe of fraud, stealing and having sex under false pretences.

Elegbeleye who is chilling his heels in jail custody, according to the policeman, lured his victim to a shrine and notified her that he needed to do some rituals to help her from religious husband that stopped her from getting a husband.

I implore all parents to call their children and their wards to order because any child found skating on the highway will be arrested and will be brought to justice. It must stop today. Skating on the highways has to stop now. The danger is too much and it is the responsibility of the government to safe lives,”

Bogus Bride Caught Out When She ‘Flinched’ As Fake Husband Touched Her Knee

Bogus Bride Caught Out When She ‘Flinched’ As Fake Husband Touched Her Knee During Wedding Ceremony

Emilia Ginova (left), 22, was jailed today for posing as a blushing bride ready to walk up the aisle with her groom Louis Esene (right) in Pontypridd, South Wales

A bogus bride was caught out because she 'flinched' when her phoney husband-to-be touched her knee in a register office.

Emilia Ginova, 22, was jailed today for posing as a blushing bride ready to walk up the aisle with her groom.

But a court heard Ginova had only first seen Nigerian student Louis Esene on the day of the service - and was being paid £3,000 to take part in the sham marriage.

In what can be termed an extreme makeover stunt, a black family has become ‘white’.

A man, his wife and their teenage daughter are unrecognizable today with a new hairdo and encapsulating make-up.

They look a typical white family.

This fascinating transformation was done as part of a French television show called “Dans la peau d’un Noir” (In the skin of a Black Person).

Interestingly, a white family also lived like a black family as part of the reality TV show.

Christine Cauquelin, a director of the documentary, explained that “this is not a movie about racism because France is not racist in the sense of segregation, but rather to address the behaviours that are causing tensions.”

Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God is 71 this year. On this note, the man of God, for the umpteenth time, has been asked to leave office as the Church’s General Overseer.
In 2010, four Assistant General Overseers of the Church, Pastors M.O. Ojo, Ilori, Aderibigbe and D. Ojo, were said to have been retired by Pastor Adeboye on account of being 70.
The hit, this time, was said to be increasing, according to sources, that the man of God had to seek help from former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The fact that Pastor Adeboye is said to be Chief Obasanjo’s bosom friend, and that the army general had some level of influence on some of the troublesome RCCG pastors, we gathered, may eventually douse the current tension.

And this is breaking news to me. Lol, some LL readers will agree with me. This is one event we all shouldn't miss.

Ice Prince has announced that former lawmaker and chief of staff to the Edo State Governor, Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon, popularly known for his jaw breaking words will be hosting the Fire Of Zamani Concert which will hold on Saturday, November 23, 2013 (the same day Tiwa will be wedding) at the Eko Hotel & Suites in Victoria Island, Lagos.

Some of Nigerian music's finest will join Ice Prince, Wale and Chip at the FOZ concert. They include Chocolate City's VP, MI, Burna Boy, Olamide, Yung El, Loopy Music’s Ruby Gyang among other artistes featured on the Fire Of Zamani album.

Shan George: “I Wish I Knew My Father”

Veteran actress and producer, Shan George says she is really bothered that she doesn’t know who her father really is.
Shan George who is aging gracefully at 43, opened up to Showtime Celebrity in an interview saying, ‘I wish I knew my father. I’m the only child of my mother, and my father was a Whiteman. My mum is a very wonderful person, but I guess there is always going to be that part of me that keeps wondering who my father is. I tried several years to trace his whereabouts to no avail’.
The ‘Blood Diamond’ star says she had traveled to Manchester, UK to find her father, but repeated efforts failed to yield any result.
‘Consequently, I traveled to Manchester in search of the man that fathered me. But my mission was not accomplished. I gave up hope of meeting my father at the age of 35.’
The Cross River State-born actress who had her movie debut in ‘Thorns of Rose’, 1997, has been married twice and has two sons.

Man Caught Stealing Offering Inside Mountain of Fire Church

A man, who apparently has no job to enable him feed himself, has been sentenced to spend one year in prison after he was found guilty of stealing from the Mountain of Fire and Miracles church.

Police prosecutor, Sergeant Simon Ibrahim told the court that the convict was a habitual offender and had stolen from the same church in 2012. Sergeant Ibrahim said:
“He stole from the same church last year. He was charged before a different court and was sentenced to one year imprisonment. In fact, he was just released from prison just last week. I don’t think he is ready to change.”
36yrs old Ademola Ayeni was sentenced on Monday after he was convicted on charges of theft for making away with the offerings of the church members. He had been previously convicted of the same offence after he stole from the same church last year.

Magistrate Khadijat Mustapha convicted Ayeni for the offence without an option of fine, saying the sentence is meant to serve as a deterrent to those who might want to engage in similar acts.

A 40-year-old man from Nherera in Mhondoro suddenly grew breasts after he allegedly stole and sold some cattles.

The Villagers believe the man identified as Acry Chinhivi Shayamano has been punished by the cattle owner.

50-year-old Hamilton Magaisa said, "We all know that Acry grew "oranges" because of his thieving. People who steal are punished in so many ways. I have no sympathy for him."

Shayamano did admit that he was a thief but denied ever stealing a cattle.

"Who told you that I have grown "oranges". Mine are not that bad. I never stole anyone's cattle.

"I steal but not cattle. I stole some DVDs and I was arrested and ordered to pay a fine," he said.

He said his grandmother lost two cows in February and that was the time he noticed his "oranges" growing. He said people just made a connection, which was not the case.

A commercial bus driver whose bus was among the five buses blocked by the officials of LASTMA at the Palmgrove bus stop, Ikorodu, striped completely na*ked to avoid arrest.

The LASTMA officials had blocked five vehicles for picking passengers by the road sides.

Drama ensued when the officials took over the wheels of four buses and an old man who drove the fifth bus stripped himself, prostrating by the front tyre of the vehicle and rolling on the floor.

The LASTMA officials took close shot of the driver and the plate number of his vehicle before leaving him.

SHOCKING DETAILS REVEALED: SEE Why Peter Okoye's Family Do Not Like His New Wife

A lot of fans have been wondering why Peter Okoye's big brother did not attend his wedding to Lola Omotayo which took place on Sunday, 17th of November.

Various reasons have been given for this curious occurrence and a report by a Nigeria entertainment website went on to reveal what is truly going on in the family.

On Sunday, November 17, 2013, Lagos stood still for Psquare‘s Peter Okoye and fiancée Lola Omotayo as the couple held their traditional wedding ceremony, surprisingly elder brother Jude Okoye was missing.

Social network has been buzzing. The twins’ publicist Bayo Adetu said Jude was missing at the wedding because he was stuck in Ghana. Psquare had performed in Accra, Ghana at the ‘Glo and Bounce Slide‘ tour the night before. Adetu says Jude missed his flight and couldn’t get back to Lagos in time for the nuptials.
But a source who was part of another artiste’s entourage to Ghana for the concert says Jude Okoye did NOT travel to Ghana. ‘We didn’t see him, the twins were here with their band but we didn’t see Jude‘, a source said.

According to reports, a new tactic is being employed by members of the Boko Haram sect; they are kidnapping Christian women and turning them into “wives.”

One of such women is 19-year-old Hajja who was asked to choose between converting to Islam and becoming such a wife or dying a cruel death.

Hajja was abducted from her village in the heart of Boko Haram territory in July and was forced to live through the torture of imprisonment. She watched men die and was sometimes the cause of their death.

Reuters reports:

In a new development, Boko Haram is abducting Christian women whom it converts to Islam on pain of death and then forces into “marriage” with fighters – a tactic that recalls Joseph Kony’s Lord’s Resistance Army in the jungles of Uganda.

The three months Hajja spent as the slave of a 14-strong guerrilla unit, cooking and cleaning for them before she escaped, give a rare glimpse into how the Islamists have changed tack in the face of Nigerian military pressure.

IMPLEMENTATION of the agreement between the Federal Government and Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, may have to be delayed as the Chairman, Senate Committee on Establishment and Public Service Matters, Aloysius Etok, has said that the ongoing negotiations between the duo would be null and void without the input of National Wages and Salaries Commission.

Senator Etok stated this during an oversight tour of the Commission. He said that under no guise should the Federal Government negotiate salary or wage increase without the input of the relevant commission.

He attributed most of the incessant industrial actions in the country to sentimental negotiation for salary increase in the civil service.

Asuu cartoon
He said: “We have said this earlier that on no account should Federal Government negotiate salary increase or anything that has to do with wages or salaries without the input of the Commission.

“They should avoid the issue of sentimental increase or negotiation and there should be no exceptions. Four months is about a semester.”

Etok further stated that the commission was expected to have played a prominent role in the 2009 agreement reached between the Federal Government and ASUU.

This message was sent to in on Monday. Really pathetic...

My name is Olu, a Nigerian resident in Beijing China. My brother was sentenced by Chinese people local court to 10 years in prison for an alleged robbery case he knows nothing about. There is every indication to proof his innocence but the court has refused to grant all his proof.
Quote
The most pathetic is that his wife was also sentenced with him and right now there is no one to take care of their two babies (Aged 3years and the other 1year old). He is Type 2 diabetic and I learnt he complains of inadequate medical attention at the detention. I don’t want my brother’s case to be like the Florida man James Bain who was found innocent after spending 35 years in prison or like the reported case of Yu Yinsheng in China who was found innocent after spending 17 years in jail on the alleged of his wife murder.
The Nigerian embassy is aware of this incident but they have refused to show any interest...

Daniel Curry, a young actor who was badly injured last month while performing in the Broadway musical “Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark,” has filed court papers contending that his accident was due to malfunctioning equipment in the show, and not to human error, as the show’s producers have maintained.

The legal filing in Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday seeks to halt any effort by the producers to alter or destroy a computerized stage lift until his experts can examine, photograph, and test the equipment to prepare for a possible civil complaint, which the performer is now considering, according to one of his lawyers, Elias N. Fillas. The lift was elevating Mr. Curry to the stage when the accident took place. The lawyers are also requesting any contracts and other paperwork related to the lift, and any internal production reports about the accident. The Daily News first reported the legal filing.

The court papers include the most specific information to date about Mr. Curry’s injuries; he sustained fractured legs and a fractured foot, and has had surgeries and amputations as a result. In a telephone interview on Wednesday, Mr. Fillas declined to describe the amputations or comment on Mr. Curry’s recovery, other than to say he remains at Bellevue Hospital.

A 13-year-old boy has been apprehended by the police in Kogi after reports emerged that he had killed his 12-year-old friend.

Yinusa Halilu, allegedly took the life of Mustapha Kazeem, his friend and classmate, after the latter damaged his earpiece.

The development was revealed to newsmen yesterday by the Acting Commissioner of Police in the state, Austin Evakhabokun.

According to reports, Evakhabokun said that a scuffle ensued between the suspect and the deceased, both primary school pupils, when the suspect demanded the return of the earpiece he lent to the deceased.

He said that the late Kazeem said that the earpiece was damaged and Halilu demanded monetary compensation for the damaged earphone.

He said that the demand enraged the deceased who reportedly called the suspect a thief, adding that this resulted in an exchange of hot words, as Halilu insisted on collecting the money by force.

Amuneke Beat-up Iheanachos' American Football Agent

A football agent, Henry Galliano, was on Monday evening assaulted by a Nigerian coach, Emmanuel Amuneke, at the Rockview Hotel, Owerri, the Imo State capital.

The assault, which happened at about 6:00 p.m. was caused by the decision of Golden Eaglets star, Kelechi Iheanacho, to choose Galliano as his agent ahead of one recommended by Amuneke.

As agent, Galliano would be responsible for arranging club transfer deals for Ihenacho, a member of the world-conquering Golden Eaglets.

Iheanacho was selected by FIFA as the best player of the just-concluded FIFA U17 World Cup in the UAE. He has since been linked to top European clubs including FC Porto and Manchester City.

PREMIUM TIMES learnt that Iheanacho has signed an agent deal officially with Galliano with a copy of the agreement sent to the secretariat of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF. The agent also confirmed that a copy of the agreement with Iheanacho was submitted to the NFF on October 21.

The architects said that the design of the Al Wakrah stadium was inspired by the flowing shape of a dhow.

The design of one of the nine new stadiums being built in Qatar for the 2022 FIFA World Cup has reportedly been likened to a honeypot after the plans were unveiled.

The architects said that the design of the Al Wakrah stadium was inspired by the flowing shape of a dhow, a traditional sailing vessel used by pearl divers and fishermen in the region for centuries.

However, Metro.co.uk reports that blogs likened the 40,000 capacity stadium to a honeypot, and a blog writer applauded the design, unintentional or not, saying that the 'bigwigs' behind the design should embrace this so-called faux pas and rebrand it as a deliberate nod towards the increasingly liberal Qatari policies concerning women in sport.

The writer further said that in a world where sport and honeypots very rarely come together with such prominence, and quipped that 45,000 people crammed inside a woman's reproductive system is not a big deal as they have been there before.

Men in India are already beginning to celebrate as the annual Assam Ra*pe Festival is just days away. Every non-married girl age 7-16 will have the chance to flee to safety or get ra*ped. Madhuban Ahluwalia who heads up the annual festival told reporters why the event is so important. “This is a long time tradition in Assam dating back thousands of years,” says Ahluwalia. “We rape the evil demons out of the girls, otherwise they will cheat on us and we will be forced to kill them. So it is necessary for everyone.”

The Assam Festival began in 43 BC when Baalkrishan Tamil Nadu molested everyone in his village of Doomdooma. Baalkrishan Tamil Nadu is remembered every year at this event, in fact the trophy given to the man with the most rapes is called “The Baalkrishan”. 24-year-old Harikrishna Majumdar told reporters that he has been training all year for this event. “I’m going to get the most ra*pes this year. I’ve been practicing all year.

Yeah she is beautiful...Congrats once again.

“A passenger bus and a mini-truck laden with margarine, both on top speed, were driving by when the Indomie truck swerved in their direction. In a bid to avoid the truck, the bus swerved and in turn ran into the mini truck and then fell on the divider.

“The Indomie truck sped off. The margarine truck caught fire and it spread unto the passenger truck.”

Although the three occupants of the mini-truck came out alive, they sustained severe burn, while passengers of the bus were unlucky and could not escape.

The inflammable nature of margarine was said to have fueled the fire which continued to intensify leaving the passengers to their fate as sympathisers took to their heels.
