| Stephanie Coker-Aderinokun: Why I made my IVF story public Posted: 10 Mar 2020 12:00 AM PDT  New mum, Actress Stephanie Coker, inspired and motivated some awaiting mothers during the week when she revealed that she had her child through IVF.Well, speaking on why she made her story public unlike other women who would do anything to keep it as a top secret, Mrs Coker said, "My vlog, 'African and Pregnant' is a four part docu-series that follows my pregnancy journey. During my procedure, I did a lot of research about IVF. However, I was only able to find very few videos of people I could relate with, discussing the procedure and side effects."Speaking on the part her husband played in going public with her story, Coker-Aderinokun told Punch, "My husband really encouraged me to share this story. He could see how it would benefit others. And that was why he agreed to be in the series, even though he is very shy. I also had two of my friends who had gone through IVF and they both were really encouraging. My husband really encouraged me and it's very rare for an African man to do such."The former TV presenter also stated that she was successful at her first IVF attempt. Speaking on her experience, she said, "It was not only draining but life-threatening as I developed Ovarian Hyper Stimulation Syndrome. My stomach became swollen with fluids. I threw up blood and was aspirated everyday for a week. This syndrome causes the ovaries to swell and become painful. It can become very serious and ultimately life threatening." When the actress shared her story, some people felt that a three-year wait wasn't enough for her to have tried IVF, but she disagreed, saying, "I don't agree with that. It is a couple's decision to embark on that journey, specially if you have been advised by a doctor that it would be the best option for you." On why she keeps her family out of the public eye, Coker-Aderinokun said, "My family didn't sign up to be celebrities or public figures; I did. For that reason, I try to protect them because not everyone has thick skin and trolls can be quite nasty."  | ||

| Actress Nazo Ekezie: ‘What women should do to their cheating partners’ Posted: 09 Mar 2020 11:00 PM PDT  Nollywood actress cum movie producer, Nazo Ekezie is feeling concerned over the constant rise of domestic violence cases in Nigeria, especially the instance of women stabbing their cheating husband.Through her Instagram page, the Anambra State script interpreter shares her thoughts on the best way to tackle the situation."The only reason a woman would stab a man that is her boyfriend or husband is because she doesn't like herself again. Which is understandable; the process of this whole marriage thing and marriage thing could make you lose yourself."I think sometimes you even forget that you should always put yourself before any other thing. It is also important for women who are into relationship or marriages to have friends or family members that they can always put a call to the husband or partner when he starts losing himself. It's crazy, how you forget yourself and then do the unthinkable by ending your life because you are trying to correct a cheating man."You have told this man to stop cheating, you have asked him, you have begged him, yet he wouldn't listen. You have said it to him so many times, is he your child? Why do you want to lose your life because you want to correct a man?If he hasn't changed, he doesn't want to change, Let him go. "Leave that relationship or marriage before it ruins you. You mustn't have to stab him. If you do, it must be because you have lost hope in yourself. You have come to believe that outside that relationship, you are nothing," she said. The Flawed star actress added, "I think we should love ourselves so much and put our happiness and wellbeing first before any other thing. Love yourself, pamper yourself. Anything that would mess with your head, let it go, forget about it. "  | ||

Fear will stand guard and make sure that you don't hear from God and you don't trust him. Fear will arrest you and lock you up in the prison of your mind so that you can't achieve your purpose in life. Fear will put you in solitary confinement for years to damage your self esteem and relationship with others. Fear will lock you up in a state of poverty mentality so that all that you think about is take take take and never give give give. Fear makes you think everyone is against you and after you so that you don't see the good in others. I can go on and on about fear. Take a look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself what FEAR has done to you. Answer the question honestly and break the chains today. God has power over any prison. As his child you have the power and authority to blast the gates open and walk right out. Stay strong. #friday #stelladamasus #africanwoman #igbogal."Recall that few days ago, the Delta State born actress penned an important note to her fellow actresses who go overboard trying to look sexy.Stella Damasus maintained that one doesn't necessarily have to be naked to look sexy. "I will say it again. You don't have to be nude or vulgar in your appearance to be sexy. The way you carry yourself even in a pair of Jeans and a sweat shirt can make heads turn. Don't show it all or put everything out there to be called SEXY. You are enough dear."  | ||
