| Uche Ogbodo – I Want To Remarry, Have More Kids Posted: 12 Jul 2020 12:00 AM PDT Nollywood actress and single mother of one, Uche Ogbodo is ready to take another shot at love. The movie star whose marriage to Apo Arthur in 2013 crashed over irreconcilable differences a few months after, told Inside Nollywood that she wouldn't mind getting married again so her daughter could have some siblings to play with."My baby girl will have siblings soon. I assure you. Watch out. I am still a lover girl as I was a few years ago. It's only that I am a little wiser and stronger. Now, I am open to finding love again and getting married. I won't say I have regrets over my past. I only have lessons learnt. Also, I don't frown at finding love in the industry. If you find your love amongst your colleagues in showbiz, please feel free to nurture it. If I find love here, I will definitely nurture it. But I have never, not yet," she asserted.The Enugu State-born thespian also talked about the high and low moments of single motherhood. Hear her: "The joyful moments we (my daughter and I) spent together, discovering ourselves as she grows up are my high moments. The lows are when I had to cry in my bedroom all alone, praying to God to save me from stress, because I work too hard trying to provide all she needs. It is not easy but I am thankful for grace." Ogbodo, however, advised single parents striving for survival not to give up. "Know that you have an everlasting love in that child in your arms. It's love that is pure and true, that never lies nor disappoints; and that will never betray or abandon you. So, cherish the moment in time." Source: TheSun  |
| Maheeda – Entertainers Are Sacrificing Their Souls To The Devil Posted: 11 Jul 2020 11:30 PM PDT Caroline Sam, popularly known as Maheeda, shocked many of her fans when she recently revealed that she's now born-again. Maheeda, who once called herself 'Naija bad girl,' told Saturday Beats she got convinced to dedicate her life to God after listening to a preacher online.She said, "I listened to a preacher online and it ministered to my soul. It made me believe that I have to present my body to the Holy Spirit to use and I have a purpose in life to fulfil. I know people are waiting for God to change me. I looked at my life and there is nothing I need that I don't have; God has provided all. My daughter might get married soon because she is a woman now. So, I have nothing to do now than to work for God."Sam also noted that she has put a stop to posting erotic videos and pictures on social media.Counselling her colleagues to change their ways and dedicate their lives to God, she said, "God still loves them and He is waiting for them with open hands. It is better late than never. In this evil world of spiritual powers everywhere, they (entertainers) are sacrificing their souls to the devil and it's easy for him to deal with them as he wants because they don't have the protection of the Holy Spirit."  Maheeda also insisted that she owed no explanation to people who doubted her new faith. She said, "I owe no one any explanation. It is about God. If anybody wants to find out if its genuine, they should ask God. The period of this pandemic is an opportunity for people to move closer to God and have a personal relationship with Him, instead of always relying on their pastors." SOURCE: PUNCHNG  |
