"HBD SON

We named u Amazing Nikechukwu Evra bcos of the mystery sorrounded with ur birth.

So u horriedly came out frm d womb a day to ur 7th month….yes u heard me right(approximately last day of ur 6thmonth) bcos u wouldn't wait to make my whole word to be summed up to 3 letter words-mum".


Oxygen and every other equiments where set to aid ur survival as u where so tender and immature to survive and u where quickly transferred to the 'baby unit" it became a big shock.

The unit seems like a space-age control room – very hot, with lots of flashing lights, beeping monitors and other mystifying pieces of equipment. Among all these are the incubators,

My tiny baby was at the centre of a tangle of tubes, surrounded by equipment inside the incubator(i and ur daddy where separated 4rm u and can only see u through the glass of the room window.. (this was to avoid him contracting infection 4rm outside the world) oh how sad it feels only to be apart 4rm ur long awaited miracle.


My tears, my sadness, my heart jumping out of my chest for months it was so distressful but God, hubby,my pastor and members,my parents, siblings, in-laws, and very few bossom frnds where they althru and made me hv hope again.

my Son inside the incubator was looking quite different to what i had imagined. (Newborn babies never look like the bouncing bundles that you see in the nappy adverts, but a baby born prematurely will be at an earlier stage of development, and so may look quite different to what you might expected) he had a very red skin,his eyes hasnt sprought out yet, very trace noise and undeveloped mouth, so he fed(from extracted breast milk 4rm my breast through a tube fixed 4rm his mouth down to his stomach for 3months consecutively, wit 2 times blood tansfusions and lots of injections through the canular monuted on his forehead for mounths and God saw us through an we came out miraculously.


Today is my Son's 3 yrs and i and ur daddy , aunties and uncles are giving all we hv to u Son…and pray u wil live a fulfilled life of sweetness.

Ur word of prays wil impact in his life positively.

Hbd our miraculous son.."

Tiwa Savage – “I Pray We All Learn How To Be Children Again”

Posted: 04 Aug 2020 07:00 AM PDT

Popular Nigerian singer, Tiwatope Savage, known professionally as Tiwa Savage has shared what she has learned by mere observing her son, Jamil.

According to the songstress, looking at her son made her to realize that children are kind, loving, and innocent, etc. However, their behaviour changes as they grow older as the world teaches them about jealousy, envy, hate and racism, etc.

She wrote:

"Just looking at my son and I realize how innocent he is, how kind he is, how loving he is, how honest he is, (although sometimes too brutally honest) how forging he is because he still cries to sleep in my bed even when I put him on time out, how great he is.

And then I see that as we grow older the world teaches us about jealousy, envy, hate racism, tribalism, sexism, all the isms, the world slowly starts to put limitations on us forces us to diff beliefs and fears, etc when we are born great. My prayer for us tonight is that we all learn how to be children again."

Lady questions Jesus after a failed miracle in Lagos hospital

Posted: 04 Aug 2020 04:00 AM PDT

A Twitter user, @Mykael_yuddy, has shared an interesting encounter he had with a lady who tackled Jesus Christ for not answering her after she attempted to raise the dead to show that there is power in his name.

Lady questions Jesus

According to Mykael_yuddy, he was at the Isolo General hospital when the lady in red, pictured above, met with him and asked if she could share God's word with him.

He declined her offer and this led to an interesting episode on how she attempted to raise a dead.

Read his tweets below…


"I really don't know what's wrong with religious people but the level of delusion I witnessed today is out of this world.

I was walking out of Isolo General Hospital when the lady in red approached me saying she wanted to preach the Gospel. I responded that she should take that gospel to the sick folks in the hospital who needed healing.

She insisted that she was directed by the holy spirit to preach to me, and that to prove that it was the holy Spirit who sent her, she would raise a dead body in the hospital so I would believe.

"This would be interesting" I said to myself. As we stood there, a car rolled up into the hospital carrying a dead person. She walked briskly to the car and asked if the person was dead and that people would witness the power of Jesus. I looked on in utter amazement

Well, the lady who had died was stretchered out and the lady in red began screaming, and commanding her to wake up in Jesus name. This went on for at least 50 minutes. Nothing happened.

She began crying and begging the holy spirit not to forsake her and to prove that he was with her. That went on for another 35 minutes or so. Finally, she stopped and said "sorry for your loss" to a man who I think is the lady's husband.

As she walked out of the hospital, I could hear her saying to herself, "Jesus why didn't you answer me?" It just goes to show how dangerous religious delusions are."

Posted: 04 Aug 2020 02:30 AM PDT

Big Brother Naija housemate, Dorathy has insinuated that she won't show off her closet like Nengi because she is not in competition with her or anyone else in the house.

Last night, after Erica discussed with Dorathy about Nengi's attitude, Dora advised Erica to stop worrying herself over her because she sees her as an attention seeker who always wants to be on the spotlight.


Backing her opinion, Dora recounted the day the guys wore wigs in the house. Dora said the wigs were not enough so she went into her box to bring two more. Nengi followed suit immediately and brought out three wigs.


"Nengi feels it's a competition but it's not because if she opens her box, she'll be shocked by the things she will see", Dora said.
