Singer Obiwon: Money or children do not make a good marriage

Posted: 11 Aug 2019 11:00 PM PDT


Nigerian singer Obiora Obiwon has taken to social media to narrate his experience as a married man. The singer shared his thoughts on what couples need to do to have a good married life.

The singer, who shared his thoughts on his Instagram page, is also a songwriter and recording artiste.

Singer Obiwon expressed that due to his experience as a married man, he noticed that money, intercourse, and children are not what makes a good marriage. He noted that the three things enhance marriage, but they do not form the foundation of marriage.

According to Obiwon, two friends that are mutually yielded to God, and mutually submitted to each other make a good marriage.

He noted that couples need to be humble and unselfish with each other. Obiwon stated that the three remaining things can be added after the foundation of a good marriage has been laid.

His post reads:

In my little years married and from what I've seen, I realise:

1. Money does not make a good marriage

2. Great sex does not make a good marriage

3. Children do not make a good marriage

Surely these three things enhance marriage but they do not form the foundation. I opine that ultimately a good marriage is made of:

1. Two friends .

2. Fully and mutually yielded to God .

3. Fully and mutually submitted to each other; yielding humbly and unselfishly to one another – daily.

That to me is the foundation that withstands every thing in the world and the imperfections of our human nature. After these then the first 3 can be added as the icing on the cake. If you're reading this. My prayer for you is this foundation! Solid as a rock!

Nothing special. Just to say I love you @nkechisgram

Pastor Adeboye — What God told me about Osinbajo’s helicopter crash

Posted: 11 Aug 2019 10:00 PM PDT


Pastor Enoch Adeboye while preaching at the Holy Ghost Service of the Redeemed Christian Church of God 67th Annual Convention on Friday August 9, recalled how God told him about the danger Vice President Yemi Osinbajo was in before the helicopter crash he survived in February with his team in Kabba area of Kogi State.

According to the RCCG General Overseer, God whispered to him while in his prayer room that his son (Yemi Osinbajo) was in danger.


"I got the message but I didn't know how to present it," he said.

"He was going around on political campaigns so I didn't know how to stop him. I also didn't want him to be scared so I resorted to praying for him."

The General Overseer said he prayed for two minutes, repeating "Father, protect your son," four times.

Recall that Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in his testimony after the February crash he escaped unhurt, said he did not understand why the pastor repeated the prayer of safety for him.

"I briefed him on the progress we have made with the campaign and then the General Overseer prayed for God's protection for me in all my travels and movements.

"That was not what the devil had planned but what did the headline read, Vice President Osinbajo's helicopter crashes all unhurt, not one crash," Osinbajo said during a thanksgiving service in Lokoja.

Bam Bam speaks on engagement "I never knew I will end up with Teddy A"
BamBam who got engaged last sunday to fellow reality star Teddy A, says she never knew they will last this long or ever get into the stage they are. Accoridng to her it was all a game until it became a reality. Speaking to saturday beats, she said;

"It (engagement) is real. Just like every other thing, you would see it happen. I can't start giving (wedding) dates".

BamBam also advised intending couples to be best friends with their partners so they can know each other's limits and boundaries.

She stated, "If you cannot make a best friend out of your intending partner, where you know their limits and their boundaries, then you are messed up really. I am blessed that Teddy is mature, not careless, and as public figures, we know how to manage situations that seem beyond our control."

Describing her union with Teddy in the Big Brother house as fate, she said, "Fate happened to us. I can't say it was pre-planned. He had a serious relationship that was one-year-old before I met him. He had a girlfriend he was serious with, so we did not plan to fall in love with each other. We did not know we would last this long. We had a very rare connection in the house. We both knew it but we kept telling ourselves 'it's just for the game' but it was no game. So, I can't predict what fate has designed. So, people should not go in there hoping to be a Teddy A and BamBam. I went to the house for a different purpose, but ended up getting Teddy as a bonus."


Wizkid- I am Yet To Be Successful

Posted: 11 Aug 2019 01:30 AM PDT


Award-winning afrobeat singer Ayodeji Balogun, better known as Wizkid, has said he is yet to accomplish anything, as he still wants more.

Wizkid made this known during an interview with Vanguard, where he described success as the number of lives one has touched in their career.

He said: "Success is making sure that every African child out there has an opportunity to actually get ahead in life. Success, for me, is touching people's lives."

"There are a whole lot of things happening around the world. There's poverty around the world. I will definitely like to do more. I don't think I am successful yet, to be frank."

Asked about the first big money he made as an artiste, he said: " the first money I ever collected was N250,000; I was so excited, I told my partner at that time; 'Bro, we started this music hustle with nothing, now we are able to make N250,000."

"If we are able to really make this kind of money, I think we can touch a million US Dollars."

Speaking on his assessment of the music industry, he said " I never really thought we would make the hits we are making right now. Things have changed immensely in the last couple of years."

The superstar stated that the biggest challenges he faces in the music industry is piracy, adding that much money is not made when their works are being pirated.

He further said "It's not easy running a record label in this country without government funding and support. It is also okay for more corporate brands to step in and support the artistes."

U nid to knw our work can get seen by their people too & it might be inspiration for them & they will tweak it around Abit , cse I'm aware the styles are not exact but they are similar same way I send my work to celebs abroad it can get copied in that process too, The Big companies that mass produced my collections & distributed it into the main markets in Nigeria saw the pictures some where too na I created this master pieces via @elegantebytiannah styling Year's before this, use google you will see them online with dates and events I wore them to.

My point is Nigerians need to Realize we Are very powerful and We Are Great worldwide, we are admired worldwide for our creativity and uniqueness, so let's be our brothers & sisters keeper & push our creatives more internationally, if Tiannah style metGala their celebs go faint nio, case them no Reach my creativity, my master pieces are always a hit back to back.


We show no mercy when it comes to Amvca, this year people sent me few creations that were similar to mine at met gala and asked why I wasn't styling them myself they even tag me on @ladygaga s transformer saying I did it tv stations started calling me for interviews, I'm like ah see everything takes planning &timing , there's no rush ,I gat this will make u guys extremely proud, the time is nearNigeria always limits my creativity but internationally they yearn for my creations, I make more money On my Abroad clients than here, if u are not careful you will just be making asoebi everyday here & be wasting ur gud creations as one off, whn it's Avant-garde Abroad& it's well paid for,

So i joined forces with the baddest Talent manager in losangeles , so now you will get to see my creations on the Bodies I have always wished to style , Nigeria to the world, no mercy My Dreams Are About to come through, I always said it that if Gucci can do it& be worldwide, Tiannah can do it #FASHIONGODDESS
