Ikeji had written:

'My family and I have had less than 2hrs power supply in a week, could be lesser but let me just say 2hrs. Since January, don't think we've had upto 20 hrs of power And we have a minister!

'then after 4 days our 10 cards will be exhausted. What a messy place. And after 4 years, y'all will beg us to go vote. Vote for who

In his reaction to the post, Adewale Adeleke stated that Fashola was set up to fail as Minister as he was assigned to three different ministries to oversee

He wrote;

One minister to run three different ministerial positions. Power, works & housing he was set up to fail. The power sector alone can be split into two sectors Gencos & Discos unless Nigeria becomes serious about power generation we will continue to be in darkness!

Demmie Vee – They made videos when Jesus fed 5000 people
Fast rising Nigerian singer, Demmie Vee is back on the headline for the wrong reason. The Surulere crooner claimed that there were video recordings when Jesus fed 5000 people, as documented in the Bible.

In his claims, he mentioned that if there had been no video taping or recording, there would have been no record of the incident.

See his post:

"There is nothing wrong with you doing a proper video of yourself giving to the needy.Even when Jesus Christ fed Five thousand people with 2 loaves and two fishes.They made videos and recorded it.If it wasn't recorded and documented,How do we know about it today?"

Iyabo Ojo's daughter, Priscilla says she's too young to have a boyfriend
Recently, Iyabo Ojo's daughter, Priscilla, clocked 18 and went to a strip club to celebrate her birthday. She was also spotted spraying money on a dancer who was literally naked.

When the video surfaced online, it generated mixed reactions from the public. Some didn't see anything wrong in her action, while others felt such a lifestyle was irresponsible. She then had to tender a public apology to her mum.

In a chat with Sunday Scoop, Priscilla said she was not interested in talking about the issue again. She stated, "I don't want to talk about it (strip club). Right now, I am focused on my education. I am also not in a relationship; I am too young to have a boyfriend.

"Turning 18 makes me feel grown and mature. I'm reminded that I'm no longer a kid and I must learn how to handle certain things like an adult."

According to her, acting has been part of her since she was a little girl but she couldn't do much because of the need to concentrate on her studies. However, she quickly added, "I am in my final year now in the university and I will love to continue to act like my mum."

She described her mum as her world, saying they behaved like sisters and understood each other perfectly. "My mum taught me how to dance but I think I am a better dancer than her now. I train her now," she said.

Toyin Abraham – Some people I’ve helped have turned round to hurt me

Toyin Abraham – Some people I've helped have turned round to hurt me
In spite of the negative things said and written about popular actress, Toyin Abraham (formerly Aimakhu), she says she doesn't dwell on whatever negative things are said about her. She said, "There is nothing wrong with constructive criticism. I like it when people point out my mistakes and I'm able to correct them.

"However, if you criticise me just for the sake of it or to get attention, I wouldn't pay you any mind. By the time you analyse issues carefully, you would realise that the so-called critics are people who don't know you. They form their opinions based on what they see on screen or what they hear people say.

"You need to know me before you can say certain things about me. Otherwise, you would just be relying on hearsay and that is not too good. Life is too short to dwell on things that make you unhappy. Personally, I like to see people around me winning. Making people happy makes me happy, and I will always continue to do that. There have been times that I helped people but they later came back to hurt me but that doesn't deter me from helping other people. I feel incredibly blessed and I will continue to do the little I can to help others."

On how her family members react to negative reports about her, Aimakhu said, "Initially, it was tough because they were usually worried about me. But now, they have got used to it. They know who I am and they know that many of the things that are said about me are not true. To survive in this industry, one has to have a thick skin."

However, the actress refused to comment on her purported marriage and pregnancy. "I am known as an actress and I feel that's what we should concentrate on. Some of these things distract us from talking on what's important. My focus is my career and that's what I'm interested in talking about."

Rosaline Meurer – Why I’m still close to Tonto Dikeh’s ex-husband

Rosaline Meurer – Why I'm still close to Tonto Dikeh's ex-husband
Nollywood actress, Rosaline Meurer, says that she doesn't have plans to stop working with Tonto Dikeh's former husband, Olakunle Churchill.

In a chat with Punch, Meurer said being an ambassador of Big Church Foundation made it hard to stop working with Churchill.  She stated, "Churchill is like a family member to me; so, why should I leave him? Even when the incident was fresh, I never thought of leaving Churchill because he didn't leave me. Also, all Tonto said about me was false."

The actress added that she didn't regret taking her time before venturing into Nollywood fully. She stated, "Before I came into the industry five years ago, I was always visiting Nigeria. I don't regret joining the industry when I did. Everything is about time and knowing the right people. Without connections and God, you can be acting for years without achieving anything."She insisted that she had no problems with Tonto Dikeh, apart for her lies. She said, "Everyone has their lives to live. I am living mine, and she should live hers too."

According to Meurer, who is the new ambassador of DoctorCare 247, playing nudity or sexual roles is not something she is ready to take up now. She said, "I cannot go nude or act sexual roles in movies; the most I can do is kiss. I even have to rehearse kisses sometimes. I know they say acting is not real but the sexual movement is real. I have yet to reach the stage I can freely act sexual roles.

"Also, to be honest with you, I hardly get s#xual advances from men. If you come to me, I know how to talk to you and you would start seeing me as a nice and lovely friend."

On her new endorsement deal, she said when she was approached, she took her time to know about DoctorCare 247. She stated, "It is a 'telehealth' platform that enables doctors and other healthcare specialists to diagnose and treat patients online. I am an actress and I have huge social media presence; so, I will use my position to make the platform more visible to people."

Mark Zuckerberg Builds Sleep Box For Wife, Priscilla Chan

Posted: 28 Apr 2019 05:07 PM PDT


Facebook CEO and billionaire Mark Zuckerberg has built a sleep box for his wife Priscilla so she could sleep well at night.

Priscilla, according to Mark, had been having difficulty having good sleep because of the kids. The sleep box was constructed in such a way that it emit some light when it;s the right time for her to wake from sleep.

He made the revelation via his Instagram page:

Being a mom is hard, and since we've had kids Priscilla has had a hard time sleeping through the night. She'll wake up and check the time on her phone to see if the kids might wake up soon, but then knowing the time stresses her out and she can't fall back asleep. So I worked on building her what I call the "sleep box".

It sits on her nightstand, and between the hours of 6-7am it emits a very faint light — visible enough that if she sees it she'll know it's an okay time for one of us to get the kids, but faint enough that the light won't wake her up if she's still sleeping.


And since it doesn't show the time, if she wakes up in the middle of the night, she knows to just go back to sleep without having to worry about what time it is. So far this has worked better than I expected and she can now sleep through the night.

As an engineer, building a device to help my partner sleep better is one of the best ways I can think of to express my love and gratitude. A bunch of my friends have told me they'd want something like this, so I'm putting this out there in case another entrepreneur wants to run with this and build sleep boxes for more people!
