Twitter users roasts Comedian Ebiye for color-shaming Lupita Nyong’o Posted: 24 Jul 2019 12:00 AM PDT
Ebiye had shared a photo of himself with black paint on his face and included a highly disrespectful and sensitive (as perceived by some twitter users) caption. But in response got more than he bargained for. But this didn't sit well with Twitter users. They didn't find the caption funny and responsible, as they insulted and blasted him, saying that was a dry joke to pull. See reactions below; Chris had this to say; "How Ebiye moved from being a promising comedian to a sexist, racist, colourist attention craving human should the studied in schools". Another Twitter user wrote; First, he insinuates Aramide slept with men for an award- which was duly deserved. Now, he makes a blatant colourist insensitive joke denigrating Lupita. It's beginning to look like every six months, the devil sits on top of Ebiye's career and decides to write coconut with it. Ushbebe got dragged into the conversation for his yesterday's distasteful joke, calling Tacha and Mercy prostitutes. A tweet read "Ushbebe called Tacha and Mercy runs girls. Now Ebiye is shaming another woman again. What is wrong with Nigerian comedians?" Some tweeted in his defence saying the public should stop with the hypocrisy. A tweet read "You guys should stop this bloody hypocrisy🤧 you guys bash Ghanaians and Kenyans all the time cos of skin colour, but Ebiye does it and he is now a racist. Same thing with Skales, he called Biodun a fake pastor just like everyone but got bashed for saying it. Make una smell out" See more reactions below; In This Story: #Twitter #users #roasts #Comedian #Ebiye #colorshaming #LupitaNyongo Sharing is caring. Share this story | ||

Commedian AY gives reasons for Flaunting his Cars and House Posted: 23 Jul 2019 10:30 PM PDT
The comedian made this revelation when a follower questioned him for showing off and tried to school him on why billionaires like Dangote and Otedola don't do same. AY, while trying to defend himself, mentioned that he is into entertainment and such is needed. Read his full post: "THE REASON THEM DANGOTE WILL NOT DO IT… First things first, you must always remember that @aycomedian is in the business of entertainment. More so, entertainment on the other hand is any activity which provides a diversion or permits people to amuse themselves in their leisure time, and may also provide fun, enjoyment, and laughter. In other words i can create my own entertainment by spontaneously inventing ideas; or participate actively in any activity you may find entertaining. "If we are going to be honest with ourselves, we should admit that some of us go into show business wanting people to talk about us and wanting everyone to know who we are and the things we can do. But that also does not take away the fact that there are a whole bunch of people who will still not like us. No matter how we try. "Why do you think talents post their works online? Why do people watch The Kardashians even when some believe that they have less talent like AY? Why would some people come out of Big Brother Nigeria and suddenly become relevant? It's all because In show business you must have something to show before the business would come. Entertaining you and showing you a part of my lifestyle, might surprisingly just be me carrying out my brand ambassadorial duty in the video that went viral. "Do you even know if the builders of my house or sellers of my cars are giving me a percentage for every contact i bring? Abi na crime to promote my wife @Midas_interiors work too? "We are all here to HUSTLE. Always speak for yourself and leave them Dangote out of it. Even DJ Cuppy don dey introduce Otedola enter showbiz by flying to Italy to buy icecream. Lol. "Above all i want to be an inspiration to every young person that wants to get into show business. Hard work, perseverance, and discipline: all the things you need when want to be an Ay.. May God make you BIGGER In This Story: #Commedian #AY #Reasons #Flaunting #Cars #House Sharing is caring. Share this story | ||

The major substance of any electoral petition is that the election in question showed "substantial non-compliance" with the constitution and the Atiku petition matter with 62 witnesses, hundreds of written testimonies and over 50,000 documents has so far proven this.At the commencement of the hearing of the matter, PDP agreed with the lawyers of the respondents (APC and INEC) to use ten days to call its witnesses – this process ended last Friday with some major facts established solidly at the PEPT on the matter of substantial non-complianceThe point about substantial non-compliance is key and I had mentioned this when the matter commenced – it comprises of two aspects: to first show that there were electoral irregularities, to then show that those irregularities were widespread enough to alter the electoral outcome.PDP/Atiku have presented all the facts from key states where Buhari/APC votes were inflated and Atiku votes reduced – including the states where INEC announced high voting figures for Buhari especially Borno, Yobe, Kano and some others; the documents were all admitted as evidence.RELATED: PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION TRIBUNAL: INEC Final Result Admited As ExhibitWorthy of note is that the agreement between the lawyers to all parties was not only about the time to be spent in building a case but also on the admissibility of the evidence and APC/INEC lawyers agreed not to challenge those evidences at this stage – so everything got in.The APC/INEC lawyers tried to oppose the submission of video evidence which highlighted not only the controversial issue of the INEC server but also instances of the breach of electoral laws – but the Judges pointed out that the agreement was clear and PDP presented it all. Baba Buba Galadima was the first witness of the PDP while our Egbon, Osita Chidoka was the final witness: 62 called to testify and written testimony taken from hundreds more from across the country. With all I've seen, the PDP/Atiku case has been well made and solidly built. PDP/Atiku will submit further evidence from INEC's own records as we go on with this last stage of the electoral procedures – INEC only just complied with the Tribunal directive and presented crucial election documents just last week. RELATED: Tribunal rejects Atiku's, PDP's prayer for forensic analysis, scanning of election materials INEC also opens its defence today. The documents so far submitted include mutilated result sheets from PU to State levels – showing clear manipulations of results in favour of Buhari, original results signed by all party agents that show that what INEC announced in some places were entirely fabricated. Keep in mind: only two things are needed to invalidate an election: non-compliance with the electoral law, substantial enough to alter the general outcome. INEC now has five days to defend the fraudulent result it announced for the February 23 Presidential election. The Atiku/PDP legal team is led by Dr. Livy Uzoukwu who is a thorough and brilliant mind while Chris Uche has led the witness testimony process – a combination of intellectual depth and rigour with courtroom mastership. And it's not yet over until sometime in September. Focus has mostly been on the matter of the INEC server and I've personally been quite happy to see APC/INEC engaged with that – the major issue however has been the key presentation of the PDP at PEPT: the February 23 election didn't comply substantially with the electoral law. Ordinarily, the issue of a server should not be the public focus except for some reasons: The INEC lawyer denied it in open court at the PEPT on two different occasions and it has kept APC/INEC busy, while PDP/Atiku have made the case solidly and forced INEC to admit its server. The fact that APC and INEC didn't scream "ambush" last week shows that they're not as brilliant as one would expect – that INEC owns a server for electoral purposes has been solidly established.
And I suspect they won't use their 5 days this week without further admitting this. Nobody expected INEC to absolutely deny ownership of a server and the denial was so ridiculous that Nigerians themselves without any prompting raised the alarm with evidence provided. That this has become the dominant news is therefore not surprising but at PEPT, PDP was focused Anyone who followed the PEPT proceedings carefully would notice that PDP only brought up the matter of the server on two days – during Segun Showunmi's testimony and on the final day with someone from Kenya. RELATED: Buhari tells tribunal, I'm not aware Bulkachuwa's son campaigned for me The man has now returned to his country please – PDP isn't foolish. APC lies spread through their usual channels have tried to distort everything at the PEPT but the focus of their lies has been mainly on the server. Funnily, the 5 grounds of the petition are openly available in the petition document itself and all 5 have been proven adequately. It's amusing that any PDP person will spread news from well-known APC media channels – it's a good thing they never understood what the major substance was and they've been going on and on about servers – the only thing needed from there is for INEC to admit it lied, now proven. INEC will have the next 5 days (which I doubt they will exhaust without admitting that they actually have a server) and APC will have its own 5 days to debunk facts that PDP has already established. I suspect that APC won't have enough time, especially if chasing shadows. As an example: PDP showed that the schools Buhari claimed to have attended did not exist at the time he claimed he attended them. APC will have not only to show that it won the election of February 23 but also show that the schools existed as at then and that Buhari attended. And this is just one of about a dozen facts that PDP established already with witnesses, electoral documents and video evidence. With all I've seen so far at the PEPT and what I know is yet to come, #AtikuIsComing is only a matter of Justice and will happen by November 13. September is when the PEPT delivers a verdict and regardless of what it is, the matter will proceed to the Supreme Court which will then have 60 days to deliver a final verdict. By calculation, that will be on November the 16th – at the latest. We will stand even beyond then.

#BBNaija2019: Moments Omashola burst in on Thelma during shower time Posted: 23 Jul 2019 01:30 AM PDT
Omashola had again run into trouble after the Saturday night party and this time, he crossed Thelma's path by entering the bathroom without an invitation. Hot-headed Thelma wasted no time as she engaged Omashola in a battle of words. After the BBNaija Saturday night party, a tipsy Omashola attempted to enter the shower room as Thelma took a bath. While it is unsure if the Warri pikin saw a nude Thelma in the bathroom, she didn't spare him as she used several unpalatable words on Omashola for the act. An angry Thelma also made it known that Saturday, July 20, 2019, was the last time she was going to respect Omashola as he had not acted responsibly. Following the episode with Thelma, Omashola realised he had truly offended her and blamed the act on alcohol. However, Omashola later went up to Thelma and apologized blaming alcohol for his actions. He said, "I messed up by forcing myself in the bathroom with you, I'm sorry. I didn't mean it in any bad way, I'm sorry Thelma." Unfortunately, Thelma had none of it and all attempts to smoothen ruffled feathers fell on deaf ears leaving viewers and other housemates to wonder if Omashola had a glimpse of her in her birthday suit. From the bathroom to the sitting room, to the bedroom to the kitchen, Thelma was unwilling to budge and it was certain Thelma won't be relating with Omashola anytime soon. Thelma had been at loggerheads with many housemates in the last 21 days of staying in the house and the housemates include Tacha, Esther, Ella, Diane, and Frodd.

#BBNaija2019: Mercy and Diane share their thoughts about Tacha after her eviction Posted: 23 Jul 2019 01:00 AM PDT Tacha got a fake eviction on Sunday, July 21, 2019, and it has become a major talking point among the housemates in the house.
For Diane, she didn't bother hugging Tacha as she left the house because they weren't close at any point in the house. She, however, was impressed with her attitude in the house because she came out as a very bold and confident housemate. Mercy, on the other hand, said the reason she stayed away from Tacha was because of her attitude and manner she handled situations in the house. According to her, Tacha had a way of always calling everyone out whenever she had something to say, even if she was referring to someone which wasn't cool. Tacha and Seyi got a fake eviction on eviction Sunday and have both been confined to a room in another part of the house. It is not clear when Big Brother plans to let the guys back to the house but one thing is for sure, we cant to see the faces of the other housemates when they get back.
