Posted: 20 Jul 2019 12:00 AM PDT

Reno Omokri 
A former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has advised not to give money to people who use better phones as that would amount to 'stupidity'.

Mr Omokri said this in a tweet on Friday.

He said that a mobile phone is a communication gadget and not a status symbol.

Omokri added that anyone who gives money to people with better phones is 'enabling their false lifestyle'.

"A phone is a COMMUNICATION gadget, not a STATUS symbol. NEVER give money to someone who uses a better phone than you. Doing so is not CHARITY. It is STUPIDITY. You are enabling their FALSE LIFESTYLE. CHARITY funds NECESSITIES, not LUXURIES," he said.

The former presidential aide also said that one of the things that keep poor people poor and in debt is the habit of upgrading their phones.

"One of the most USELESS habits that keeps POOR people POOR and in DEBT is the habit of UPGRADING your perfectly good PHONE just because APPLE, SAMSUNGMOBILE or TECNOMOBILE have introduced a new one. Do you see RICH people being that STUPID?" he queried.

Yinka Ayefele, Nigerian gospel artist, has confirmed the arrival of a set of triplets with his wife, Temitope. Mrs Ayefele welcomed the babies, two boys and a girl, in Maryland, USA.

The 51-year-old musician shared a video of himself with the babies on his Instagram page this afternoon Friday July 19th.

"FAVOURED," he wrote.

Recall that in June, there were reports that the singer's wife had welcomed the triplets in the US. He however denied the reports, saying it was fake news.

The media aide to the singer, David Ajiboye, who confirmed the arrival of the triplets, said Ayefele had earlier denied the delivery of the babies because he doubted the credibility of the source who had contacted him for information on the matter in June.

Ayefele got married in 2000, three years after he was involved in a car crash where he sustained a spinal cord injury.

Celebrities have sent out congratulatory messages to him on the arrival of his bundles of joy.

Kemi Olunloyo "Busola Dakolo Wasn’t Raped, She Is After Fame"

Posted: 19 Jul 2019 05:30 AM PDT

Kemi Olunloyo "Busola Dakolo Wasn't Raped, She Is After Fame"
Tuesday, July 16, 2019, Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo, Nigerian journalist, activist, media enthusiast and social media personality, made an appearance on TVC's Your View to discuss her investigation into the controversy between Pastor Fatoyinbo and Busola Dakolo.

Dr. Kemi Olunloyo started the conversation, stating that she is an investigative journalist and not taking sides with the Pastor. She made clear that she understands sexual violence as well as the sensitivity of the matter but however criticized CHUDE for having not done justice to the interview.. In her words: "When speaking about a Pastor, a man of God who could be easily defamed by a woman, a timeline should have been included."

When asked why she had not interviewed the Pastor on the allegations, seeing as she is an investigative journalist, Dr. Kemi emphasized that as an investigative journalist, you should go to the source [the News-maker]. "I did contact Timi dakolo, I sent him the exact message I had sent to Busola. Before I realized what had happened, Timi dakolo had publicized a screenshot of my message to the world!" Kemi went further to explain that as a result of the screenshot posted online by Timi which included her mobile number, her phone was on fire with over 585 missed calls.

It was at that point that she switched her attention to the Pastor to get an interview with him, but there was no chance for that as he zoomed off after service from the pulpit saying the Lord asked him to keep mute.

When asked how she knew there were holes in Busola's story, Dr. Kemi stated:

"LINDA IKEJI was never pregnant, that baby was from a surrogate mother. Nigerians don't have to believe what I say despite having all evidences. Nigerians don't understand "press freedom". I can call Donald Trump a racist, say he looks like a monkey and I would walk away with it but in Nigeria, I would get arrested and castigated." On whether she hijacked the whole story and made it all about herself, she specified: 'The PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) I had isn't an illness, it is a mental disorder. It's not my motive to hijack the story or be the star of the story, everyone should be investigating the story.'

The shocker came when Dr. Kemi said out-rightly that she had come to a conclusion Busola Dakolo wasn't raped, however she has not concluded her investigation. She further stressed that Busola has a lot of holes in her story: "The whole thing isn't adding up at all, no timeline and everyone did the mathematics. Busola is 36, substrate that from 16 – (1999). He raped me in my house and called me to come babysit his child and raped me again on our way there in the car, a car that wasn't in existence until 2003."

"Timi Dakolo was part of a rape campaign movement in 2015, where he said he would die if any of his daughters happen to be victims of rape. If he knew that his wife was a rape victim, why didn't he voice out at the time? Why did he use innuendos? Given the fact that CHUDE is a professional practitioner and knows his career is on the line, he shouldn't break a story that wasn't investigated or has element of truth in them and not verifying facts without matching up events!"

DR. KEMI who stressed that she has never been in support of rape, blatantly said the whole story was false and she doubts every part of it. Also that the video by CHUDE was edited and 'cut into pieces'. She also said that Busola is trying to use the medium for fame and "clouting" with such sensitive issues should be punishable.

Daddy Freeze calls out Mountain of Fire Ministries over alleged Antichrist doctrine

Daddy Freeze calls out Mountain of Fire Ministries over alleged Antichrist doctrine
Daddy Freeze has called out the Mountain of Fire Minstries' authorities, over its doctrine he described as Antichrist-like.

The Free The Sheeple leader alleged that the act of praying for a member's enemies to die is an Antichrist doctrine, as Jesus Christ instructed Christians to pray for their enemies to prosper and even lend them money whenever they need it.

He wrote;

Dear MFM,
Kindly consider the following scriptures before your next prayer session.

Please if you pray for your member's enemies to die, STOP IT!
Instead, teach your congregation to pray for their enemies to prosper and encourage them to lend their enemies money whenever they need it, expecting nothing in return, as Christ instructed us to.

Anything outside this is an Antichrist doctrine! ~FRZ

Mildred Okwo, an award winning Nollywood film producer and director, has expressed concerns at how movie producers churn out movies but have little or no financial reserves to fall back on whenever the need arises.

In this tweet, Mildred wonders how how movie actors, directors and producers run to the public for help when they fall ill despite having over 100 movies to their names.

"It's terrible when you have 100 movies to your name but people have to contribute to send you to hospital when you fall ill. This is not an industry we are building o. People don't have 1 million Naira saved but they have shot 10 films …? This not a profession o", she tweeted.
