Don Jazzy States Female Specifications, Slim Girls Not Allowed!

Image
He is humble, God-fearing, amazing at what he does and is every girls dream guy. However, Micheal Collins aka Don Jazzy has stated explicitly that even though he respects all women alike, he will never be attracted to a slim lady. In his words ,” there’s no way a woman ‘shaped like a broom can ever attract my full attention”. While we are choosing to take offence at that statement, he went further to explain that a failed marriage at the United Kingdom made him wary of women. He says he would not like to go through that again for the sake of his son from that marriage. Since there isn’t any hope for the slim ladies, we have decided to make it a level playing ground for the rounder more curvacious ladies by putting up his specifications for all to see. These are the qualities that Don Jazzy would like in his potential woman “ The way she looks, talks and how she carries herself. My id...

MI, Jude Abaga Eyeing Wedding To Girlfriend Erica Okundaye

Image
Not many know that multiple award-winning music act, Jude Abaga, aka MI, is just as much a devoted lover as he is a devoted artiste. While his longtime fiancée, Erica Okundaye’s name might not readily ring a bell, the former model was the first runner-up in the edition of the Miss Nigeria beauty pageant that produced Damilola Agbajor as winner. Apart from the fact that the smitten duo has been co-habiting at MI’s Obanikoro, Lagos residence for about 18 months, she is often seen around the Gbagada axis of Lagos cruising his white Range Rover Sports jeep and his similarly hued C-class Benz. Also, in his office where she also spends a lot of time, she wields a lot of influence. Many are waiting to see how soon he will walk the light-skinned Edo state born lady down the aisle.

NEWS: ‘Same Sex Marriage Is Capable Of Wiping Out Human Race In 20 Years’ – Pastor Adeboye

Image
The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) , Pastor Enoch Adeboye has condemned Same Sex Marriage  describing it as evil. Speaking at the New Year Thanksgiving Service organised by the Joint Christian Mission of the Obafemi  Awolowo University (OAU), Ile-Ife , at the weekend, Adeboye said that the act is capable of wiping out human race in 20 years of its practice . ‘ The will of God for human being is to be fruitful, replenish and multiply on earth’, Adeboye noted, further describing Same Sex Marriage as anathema to God’s will and instruction . ‘How can a man who marries a fellow man produce a child? How can a woman who marries a woman produce a child? If this evil is allowed to stay, there will not be new born babies again in the world. As the older generation dies, would there be new generation to succeed them? Even plants and animals have new generation to succeed them ’, he asked . He implored those in the gay commun...

‘It was the worst decision I have seen live’ – Enyeama disses CAF officiating

Image
Vincent Enyeama argues with referee Grisha Ghead Nigeria goalkeeper and captain Vincent Enyeama said Egyptian referee Grisha Ghead ‘s decision to award holders Zambia a late penalty in their African Nations Cup match on Friday was ‘one of the worst calls in the history of football’. His opposite number, Zambia goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene , saved a point for the champions by converting the 85th minute spot- kick to force a 1-1 draw in Group C. Television replays certainly suggested that if Nigerian defender Ogenyi Onazi touched Zambia’s Emmanuel Mayaka as he fell, it was unintentional and could well have been outside the penalty area. ‘ It was the worst decision I have seen live. I don’t know what is happening with the officiating ,’ Enyeama fumed. We had a terrible official in the first game too. But a decision like the one today does not belong in African football, and certainly not in a match of the magnitude of the champions against Nigeria ,’ Enyeama fu...

‘I was raped before I turned 17′ – Foluke Daramola

Image
Popular  Nollywood  actress  Foluke Daramola  has revealed she was raped before she turned 17. In recent interview with punchng.com, the actress was asked about her first crush and sexual encounter, and she explained that at 17 she fell in love with her first crush, a certain Seun Olomofe but before then she had been raped. She narrates that one of her neighbours had taken advantage of her when she was quite young: ‘ My first introduction to sex was rape. It was with one of our tenants. I got so close to him and saw him as an elder brother. He looked at me as someone that had been exposed because I was busty and he thought I had had a sexual experience before. So he had his way with me ’, she narrated. Daramola says she’s gotten over it but would like to share the sad story with the younger generation because ‘it is something that has been talked about’.

Goodluck Jonathan Now Begging Obasanjo for Reconciliation

Image
President  Goodluck Jonathan  has begun moves to reconcile with former President Olusegun Obasanjo , as a means of ending the rift between himself and his benefactor. Jonathan and  Obasanjo  had fallen apart over the last few months, following critical comments made by  Obasanjo  about the government. In a recent interview on Cable Network News, the former president criticised Jonathan’s handling of the Boko Haram insurgency and advised him to initiate a dialogue with the extremist sect. Obasanjo  told the CNN in the interview that Jonathan had been applying less of dialogue and more of force in solving the Boko Haram issue. But the Presidency, in a reaction to the ex-President’s submission, said  Obasanjo ’s position on the Boko Haram issue had been contradictory. Both men also disagreed on the choice of the chairman of the PDP Board of Trustees. While Jonathan rooted for a former BOT Chairman, Chief Tony Anenih, his predecessor repo...

Why I Maltreated My Son – Prophet Elikanah Ajibade (PHOTO)

Image
A  cleric, Prophet Elikanah Ajibade, who was charged  to court on Tuesday and was remanded in prison, for alleged physical  abuse  of his son for attending a  church service  against his instruction, has denied reports that he asked the boy to roll on hot coal ashes.The boy who is now in the care of JWC staff, reportedly left home for the new year eve service on Monday, December 31, 2012, in a church which was not his father’s. The father, a Cherubim and Seraphim prophet at Okinni, a town in Egbedore Local  Government area of Osun State, had earlier told his son who is his late wife’s third son not to go to any other church for the service to usher in a new year. It was gathered that Prophet Ajibade, in annoyance, went to the church, rudely interrupted the service and brought David out, lashing him with strokes of cane. Despite efforts and pleas by members of the church, Salvation Army Church, Okinni, to rescue the hapless...
