Dancer Kaffy – “Submission does not mean a woman must lower her voice before a man”

Posted: 16 Aug 2021 12:00 AM PDT

Legendary Nigerian dancer, Kafayat Shafau-Ameh aka Kaffy, has shared her thoughts on the never-ending debate on submission in marriage.

According to her, submission does not mean a woman must lower her voice, essence, and purpose just because she is in the presence of a man.

It has been a trending discussion on social media in recent times if women are to submit to their husbands whether they like it or not.


In a post shared on her Instagram page, Kaffy opined that submission doesn't mean a woman has to lower her voice, essence, or purpose just because she is in the presence of her man.

She averred that submission to her means that women are in agreement with the assignments of a man. She however pointed out that most men don't even have clarity of themselves as they are under too much pressure, distractions, and expectations created by culture and society.

See what she wrote below;

"The word "Submission" if it were a human being would have committed suicide because of the falsehood attached to how it's name has been used .

"First of all the word does not mean one is a slave to another nor does it mean a woman must lower her voice , essence and purpose just because she is in the presence of a man.

"Submission here to me (my point of view) is more of being in agreement with the thought, purpose, assignment and essence a man carries as this would gravely affect the amount of selfless , sacrifice and trust a woman needs to have to become the Favour God has ordained her to be to the man.

"And don't forget every woman carrying Favour is a woman with a dream and essence amd assignment too. She MUST only submit to one who would obtain what she carries in her that God wants to manifest into the world .

"Man being a Lord , Custodian or asked to LOVE his wife also comes from a place of nurturing , developing , enduring ,learning , and so many more Christ – like qualities . And not just emotional and financial provision . The world needs to be a better place and it takes people who understands their assignment and purpose on earth .

"A lot of our men don't even have clarity of self , too much pressure ,distractions and expectations created by culture , society in fact safe to say expectations of the FLESH over that of the kingdom has led to a lot of straying of souls .

"Both men and women need a break to gain clarity , to find themselves before seeking a partner .

God help us all !"

Why A Hong Kong Ferrari Dealership acclimated the iPhone 12 Pro Max

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 02:40 PM PDT

 

iPhone Pro Max. ...Image credit: pixabay


There are lots of facets and criteria to consider back evaluating smartphone cameras, and if we have been to damage down the cell digicam journey into separate categories, there'd be a diverse list of "winners." Samsung's Galaxy S extremely, for example, has the most excellent zooming gadget, while the Oppo find X professional has the top-rated ultra-vast perspective digicam. But the most effective mobile digital camera for shooting video? That'd be the iPhone sequence—certainly, the iPhone Pro Max.


Frank Liew, arch advertising officer of Blackbird Concessionaires, the respectable broking of Ferrari in Hong Kong, sure thinks so. That's why when he changed into tasked to shoot a short movie marketing two Ferrari sportscars—one anew released in Hong Kong—he selected the unorthodox approach of shooting the entire mission with an iPhone Pro Max instead of a "skilled" digicam.


"I've been the use of the iPhone given that the released in to steal video clips on an everyday basis," says Liew. "and that i become concerned about the theory that this widely wide-spread equipment we all have in our pockets can create something fascinating."


Both Ferraris Liew become tasked to market had been the Portofino M, which just launched in Hong Kong last month, and the SF Stradale. Liew says with each vehicles wearing diverse personalities, he got here up with this "nighttime-and-day dual-world" concept, by which pictures of the Portofino M cruising all over the day is seamlessly intercut with scenes of the SF Stradale rushing via imperative at evening.

The industry common device to film excessive velocity scenes of a relocating vehicle zipping through the road is the "Russian Arm," an automatic arm with knowledgeable brand digicam connected, related to the roof of an automobile so as to catch high-perspective photographs of one other automobile.


"It's an industry usual utilized in everything from automobile advertisements to Hollywood blockbusters," says Liew, "however we don't accept entry to at least one in Hong Kong and that they're very expensive to build."

So Liew fabricated his own version with an iPhone Pro Max linked to a client DJI Ronin S gimbal, which turned into then related to a crane that's operated by hand from the returned of a pickup truck.

The makeshift Russian Arm: an iPhone pro Max strapped to a DJI gimbal linked to a manual ... + crane.

The makeshift Russian Arm—which Liew jokingly nicknamed "iCrane"—accustomed Liew and his crew of six to get high- and low-perspective shots of the Ferraris in movement. however Liew wanted an even more unconventional shot.

"I grew up spending loads of time at the arcades where I performed riding games," Liew remembers. "And there changed into this video video game digital camera angle where the digicam looks to be aerial in the back of the automobile, in order that you see now not simply everything on the highway but the total lower back of the vehicle too.

Image credit: Pixabay


Given the measurement and weight of profesional cameras, this may have required a very costly, specialized rig—however Liew, of route, became shooting with a tiny light-weight machine with wonderful stabilization developed-in. So he in simple terms strapped an iPhone pro Max to some rods that hung out the again of the automobile. The iPhone professional Max's extremely-broad perspective digital camera allowed the cell to catch the whole motor vehicle and the road forward without wanting to be placed too a long way at the back of the car. The iPhone's stabilization did the rest of the work.

At last, Liew and his crew strapped the iPhone to a DJI bombinate to get greater aeriform photographs. The entire shoot lasted three days, with three weeks spent on put up-creation to slice the photos seamlessly together.

The ensuing video, titled "The Handover," is a trendy, professional mini film that showcases not simply Ferrari sportscars, however the Hong Kong skyline and iPhone's video accomplishment as well.

"they are saying the most desirable camera is the one you've got with you," Liew says, "and the iPhone pro Max is the camera that's always with me."

Lynda Clems, a Nollywood actress, has finally disclosed the details of her dispute with her colleague Annie Idibia, wife of singer 2Baba.

The Enugu-born actress in an Interview on Thursday accused Annie Idibia of intellectual theft following the release of the latter's new TV series Nkoyo, also alleging that both parties had earlier agreed on a settlement outside court but the other party defaulted.

"Nkoyo the series is supposedly a continuity of my movie Open Scar. I contracted Annie Idibia to play a character called Nkoyo in my film Open Scar. Apparently, she loved her character so much she decided to develop it into a series without my consent or approval," she said.

"Well, she is been sitting on her high horse and sending people to talk to me about it but didn't wanna reach out or do the right thing. My lawyers wrote them and they begged to settle out of court.
 
"While we are waiting to hear back from them, they started publicity and eventually put the series out."

Laycon –"Why I Refused Admission Into Other Varsities Except UNILAG"

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 05:00 AM PDT

Olamilekan Agbeleshebioba, aka Laycon, a Nigerian rapper and the winner of BBNaija 2020 Lockdown Edition, is no doubt living the life of his dreams, as the reality TV star recently performed for the Recording Academy (Grammy) Press Play at Home programme and has also been having well attended shows in different parts of the country.

In an interview with Accelerate TV, the 'Fall for me' rapper stated that he had always known he would be successful. He said, "I have always known I would be successful. When I say 'successful', I want you to know that people have different metrics for measuring success. My own idea of success would probably be different from that of someone else. The yardstick that a lot of people use to measure success is different from what I use. The bottom line is that I never had doubts about my success."

The rapper also noted that he stayed home for three years in order to gain admission into the University of Lagos. He added, "I stayed home for three years and I was getting admission offers into other schools but I wanted UNILAG, because I felt it would help me as an artiste. I believed I would be exposed to more growth as an artiste there."

Asked about his dreams are as an entertainer, Laycon said, "My dream is to keep growing, evolving and elevating in all areas of my life. I want to go on a world tour and perform at major international cities. I would love to do a lot musically and to feature people I don't have access to yet. I just need to keep working hard to get there."

BBNaija: Yerin –"Why Maria Is My Least Favourite Housemate"

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 04:30 AM PDT

Yerins Abraham, one of the evicted Big Brother Naija (Shine Ya Eye edition) housemate, has revealed why fellow contestant Maria is his least favourite housemate in the ongoing reality TV show.

Yarin said that though he believes a female housemate and one of the wildcard contestants in the game, Maria, was partly to blame for his quick eviction from the show he did not hate her.

In an interview with Saturday Beats, he said, "According to what she (Maria) said, there was a time she wanted to have her bath and I was already in the bathroom. I then let her go into the bathroom. The way the bathroom is designed, when one is inside, one could have the feeling that someone else is looking at one. She felt I was looking at her but I did not do that. I wasn't even aware that she felt that way. She should have talked to me about it but she never mentioned it even though we spoke many times. I always wondered why she acted in a certain way towards me. I learnt that people perceived me as a pervert and that was why some people refused to vote for me. It had a negative effect on my image. I don't hate her but she is my least favourite housemate."

Speaking about being boring in the house, Yarin said,

"The major reason people had the perception that I am boring was because I was unfortunate to leave the show so early. There were people in the house such as Saskay, JayPaul and Yousef that were not as social as I was in the house. It was just the first week and everyone has the time to adapt to being in the Big Brother Naija house. What made me a bit withdrawn in the house was because I was going through some emotional challenges but I brought myself back. I was nominated for eviction by the wild cards (Maria and Pere) who probably had some issues with me but never confronted me. People who think I'm boring just did not know me that well."

Yerins also admitted to being attracted to Liquorose. He said, "I was attracted to Liquorose. I was the first person she talked to in the house. We really bonded and spoke about things that people only talk about when they've known themselves for a long time. Few days into the competition, I told her I liked her. And we agreed to know each other better. I wanted to apply pressure and ask for us to be a team but I later noticed that she and Emmanuel had something. So, I took a step back and allowed them do their thing."

Sharing his opinions on two of the contestants, Whitemoney and Pere, Yerins said, "Both of them are playing the game but Pere is doing it in a way that is not genuine. Outside the house, I noticed that he is perceived by people as being fake. We are from the same place (Bayelsa) so I don't want to think too badly of him. He told me that he didn't nominate me for eviction but I later found out that he did. He keeps proving to people that he is not someone to be trusted.

"As for Whitemoney, he has always been amazing from the first day of the show, and his cooking is great. We talked a lot and he is someone I am rooting for to win the show."

Yerins also stated that his time on the show reminded him of some of his struggles in secondary school. According to him, he was seen as a nerd, and people did not often include him in social activities. He also stated that he was constantly bullied in primary school.

BBNaija: Nini Confronted Pere And Maria Over WhiteMoney’s ‘Kitchen Strategy’

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 04:00 AM PDT

Big Brother Naija season 6 housemate, Nini, expressed dissatisfaction with the way Maria and Pere handled the issue of food in the house.

Recall that, three days ago, the current head of house, Pere suspended Whitemoney from cooking in the kitchen.

Pere suspended him because he wants to relieve him from the stress and he also feels cooking is Whitemoney's strategy.

White money has not been cooking for the last three days now and there's chaos in the house because the people appointed to cook are not as diligent as Whitemoney.

Just after they've completed their task at the arena yesterday evening, the housemates gathered to talk about food and share the noodles Big Brother had delivered to them.

Angel who was appointed to be in charge of the kitchen said she won't tolerate anybody insulting her because she didn't come to Big Brother's house to cook for anybody.

After several arguments, the head of house, Pere made a statement concerning Whitemoney using cooking as his strategy for the other housemates but he said this indirectly without mentioning his name.
After Pere made this statement, Nini began shouting that they should leave Whitemoney alone. She said if Whitemoney's strategy is cooking, they should leave him and let him cook.

She said the current head of house, Pere, made a big mistake by disrespecting White Money. She further urged the housemates to appreciate White Money because cooking cannot be used as a strategy to win the Big Brother Naija show.

Truly, ever since Whitemoney stopped cooking, there has been mismanagement of food in the house.

BBN Shine Ya Eye -Tega Loses Cool As She Causes Confusion In The House Over Her Missing Property

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 03:30 AM PDT


Big Brother Naija Shine Ya Eye housemate, Tega, turned the house upside down over her ruffled bed sheet and missing pillow case.

This happened in the early hours of Saturday as the housemates prepared to sleep after the Jacuzzi Party on Friday night.

Tega met her bed scattered, pillow case missing and duvet gone. She became angry and shouted about the matter.

As none of the housemates seemed to pay attention, she then went to ruffle everybody's bed and the housemates tried to calm her down.

Peace approached her and invited Tega to come have her bed because she (Peace) would sleep with Nini and Saga on one bed.

Tega responded, "You don't get it, Babe. Somebody went to my bed, unlaid my bedspread, took out my duvet cover, removed my pillowcase and everybody is acting as if nothing happened.I can sleep on that bed but I need to know who unlaid my bed."

Queen said, "It's only Big Brother that can show you."

Jaypaul also tried to calm Tega down by holding her and telling her to relax, but the mother-of-one was having none of that.

"Now Head of House is saying that he can't do anything about it. He cannot see what is going on. If it is something else, everybody would have seen it. Let us all lay the bed to sleep again," Tega said.

Pere came to the scene and played detective by claiming that he knows who did it but will not say anything.

However, Tega was determined to keep everyone awake as she started making noise by striking a knife on a pot.

For some of the housemates like Sammie and Angel, this was music, as they danced to the beat from the 'pot drum'.

4 types of single ladies that men normally avoid

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 03:00 AM PDT

It is easy to not spot the issues that may be keeping potential partners away from you.

If you are single with an eye towards dating and finding the man of your dreams, it may be easy to keep thinking you are quite the catch and that it's the loss of menfolk who keep sleeping with you.

It is easy to not spot the issues that may be keeping potential partners away from you. Sometimes it could just be a refusal to admit them.

There are few habits and behavioural patterns that could make it easy for guys to quickly move over from you. Here are some of them below:

You pressure for perfection too early
This does not come immediately, or right off the bat. And you need to realise this. . Some connections need to be worked on to grow into the love story you desire. Projecting an unrealistic desire for 'perfect' on a guy too early will shoo him off even though that is not what you want.

You postpone things you should focus on
When it comes to dating, you want a relationship, but don't prioritise the things you should be doing to make yourself a better person, and therefore a better potential partner. Stop making up reasons why you can't have what you want right now. Self-development is good, but take small steps versus using them as an excuse.

You let the past upstage the present
Sounds like you? Well then. It may make sense to slow down, take a break, and get back into the dating game when you're actually ready. You may be disappointed if you force expectations of perfection, especially too early into the relationship.

You think you are available, but you really aren't
We love to think we are emotionally available for the "one" at all times, but sometimes we have to be realistic about our own roadblocks. A "reserve relationship pattern" is described as someone who is in a relationship, but keeps someone hovering around her as a backup plan in case plan A falls through. This type of person also still consistently communicates or sexes an ex. They also can't stand to be alone.

If this sounds like you, the best remedy is to be alone and get comfortable before pursuing a relationship.

Sitting on the toilet for too long is dangerous for your health

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 02:30 AM PDT

A lot of us these days spend a considerable amount of time sitting in the toilet, not because of poop delays but because we are busy surfing through our phone, playing games or actually reading books.

Toilets have now become like the only place where you get to break away from the commotion of life and can sit on the throne and do whatever you feel like- without any interruption.

What experts say

According to medical experts, no one should spend more than 10 minutes in the toilet. In fact, the lesser the better.

Germs
For starters, spending too long in the toilet with your phone makes your phone susceptible to 18 times more germs. In fact, recent research revealed that 1 in 6 phones actually had traces of faecal matter on their surface – without the person even realising it.

It can lead to haemorrhoids
Another reason why you should limit the time you spend in the toilet is that sitting for too long can lead to haemorrhoids and protruding blood vessels around the anus. Yes, that happens.

Problem in bowel movement?
Also, if the real reason behind spending too long is toughened bowel movement, even then you must restrict your time pressuring the veins in the rectum.

Using a relaxer
"I think about it all the time. I had pretty long relaxed hair. Although, my hair is longer now. Relaxers do damage your hair and, I am much better at maintaining natural hair. I don't think I would know how to keep relaxed hair healthy."

Longer natural hair?
" Leave it alone! Doing too much to hair often leads to breakage. Get quality products, keep your hair moisturized, do protective styles, and leave it alone. "

Shrinkage
"Shrinkage is a sign of healthy hair. So, it is a good thing!

"But if you need to stretch your hair; braids, twists, threading are all great options. Using heat with a blow dryer should be your last option but also works well."

5 products every naturalista should have?
"Cleanser (it can be any, but of course I'd say my brand's shampoo)
Deep conditioner 
Leave-in conditioner 
Oil/serum
Spray bottle to moisturize your hair quickly"
How is your wash day routine?
"It varies sometimes depending on my hairs needs at the moment, but usually;

Prepoo to detangle and get my hair ready for shampoo using my serum and a conditioner that usually has some protein.
Shampoo using my brand's shampoo.
 Deep condition using a moisturizing treatment and heat cap. Sometimes, I deep condition using a protein treatment depending on how my hair feels.
 Use Leave-in conditioner with protein.
Style with Sheabutter or creamy hair products.
Seal and massage my scalp with my hair serum.
Leave my hair to air dry.
 Use a satin bonnet or scarf whenever I'm not in public."
How do you style your natural hair?
"My go-to style is two crown flat twists. That was the style I used to grow out my hair. Other than that, I'll do all-back and wear a wig or do braids with extensions."

"Sometimes, I'll do ponytails or a high puff/bun. But I ensure to keep my hair as moisturized as possible and my scalp supple using my products to massage."

From our conversation with Anto Lecky, we learnt that you do not have to do too much to have a long and full natural hair, the basics are enough especially if you have the essential products listed above.

5 unbelievable fruits that will help you get rid of belly fat

Posted: 15 Aug 2021 01:00 AM PDT

Studies have shown that fruits do not only help with better and proper digestion of food, they also aid in balancing blood sugar which usually helps in burning belly fat, and weight loss.

Studies have shown that, in addition to exercise and dieting, eating different varieties of fruit is one of the best ways to get rid of belly fat as well as weight loss.

This is because, fruits are rich in both nutrients and minerals that naturally, you can't get elsewhere even from supplements.

Additionally, further studies have shown that fruits do not only help with better and proper digestion of food, they also aid in balancing blood sugar which usually helps in burning belly fat, and weight loss.

Here are five unbelievable fruits that will help you get rid of belly fat

1. Red grapefruit
Researchers have attributed the effects of fat burning foods to a combination of phytochemicals and vitamin C in the grapefruit.

And according to a printed study in the journal Metabolism, eating half a grapefruit before meals may help reduce belly fat and cholesterol levels.

As a matter of fact, participants who partook in the six-week study saw their waist shrink by an inch after eating red grapefruit with every meal.

Researchers attribute the effects of fat burning foods to a combination of phytochemicals and vitamin C in the grapefruit.


2. Apples
When it comes to health benefits, apples are royalty.

Rich in abundant nutrients which help with your immune system, apples are a great fruit for having a flatter belly and weight loss because of its high fiber content and phytonutrients.

Studies have shown that fiber and phytonutrients help slow digestion of food thereby making you feel full for longer and they help in balancing the production of blood sugar by not spiking it unnecessarily which can lead to weight gain and other diseases such as diabetes.

3. Tomatoes
Although tomatoes are generally known for cooking, they are packed with a whole lot of vitamin c and phytonutrients that make them effective when it comes to getting rid of belly fat.

Studies have shown that vitamin C is what enables our bodies to burn fat that is already stored with exercise. And the phytonutrient carotenoid serves as an antioxidant for our body that helps with losing weight and cardiovascular health.

4. Watermelon
When you're trying to lose inches around your waist, low-calorie foods that fill you up, such as watermelon, can aid your weight loss efforts.

The summertime favorite is a refreshing treat that helps satisfy your sweet tooth while providing some key vitamins and antioxidants. Although research on watermelon's direct effects on losing belly fat is not very popular, it still doesn't change the fact that the fruit makes a healthy addition to a weight loss plan.

5. Pineapple
Studies have shown that pineapple, which is a nutrient-rich fruit containing vitamin C, manganese, thiamine, copper, fiber and vitamin B-6, can flatten your tummy, prevent stomach distention and help your body burn a few extra calories.

Additionally, the fruit contains one very important enzyme: bromelain, which is found in the stem and within the juice of a pineapple. This enzyme metabolizes protein, contributing to a number of health benefits, including a flatter abdomen.
