Nelson Mandela dies at 95

I woke up to the sad news of Nelson Mandela's passing this morning. Even though it's been expected for a while now, it is still quite sad.

Nelson Mandela has died at his home in Johannesburg, South Africa aged 95. The anti-apartheid icon died at 12:50pm EST surrounded by close family. Mandela's death came nearly five months after he was admitted to hospital with a lung infection. Despite being allowed to return home three months ago, South Africa's first black president has not been able to move from a bedroom described as being a 'virtual 24 hour intensive care unit' and has needed a ventilator to breath.

South Africa's president Jacob Zuma announced the long-expected death in a special television broadcast last night. Mr Zuma said: 'Our nation has lost its greatest son.' 'What made Nelson Mandela great was precisely what made him human. We saw in him what we seek in ourselves'.

May his soul rest in peace.

Islamic terrorists might have 'blown themselves up' in Kenyan Shopping Mall and List of Terrorist Attack Victims

The Westgate Shopping Centre (Mall of Terror) is on fire
I've watched the Kenyan Mall massacre in what appears like a real life Hollywood movie in disbelief and fear. Even as my heart goes out to all the victims of this terrible attack, one thing on my mind is 'This could have been anywhere' I think about shoprite and how people go in there in their hundreds on weekends to do their shopping and simply just say a prayer.

I pray for all the victims of this terrible act and their families. May God almighty heal them.

Finally, Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth breakup.

Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth have decided to take a break, it has been claimed.

The pair, who have had a tempestuous relationship over the past few years, have reportedly decided to postpone their wedding while they see if they are better off apart.

I really think this is a good move. Miley doesn't seem like someone who's ready for marriage at all with all her wild ways of behaving and naked pictures, performances and video. The fact that she unfollowed Liam on twitter says it all besides, all that break-up and make-up was just beginning to be so boring. 

Wish them both the best in their next endeavours. 

The 12 O'Clock Man

I attended a company sponsored training today and the passage below was a time management case study which incidentally is a real life event. 

After we’d read the passage, we were all told to draw the process of how we typically spend our time daily. It wasn't surprising to see that most of the men and some women have become '12 O'clock parents' 

The passage was written by Reuben Abati in 1994 and it was quite surprising that as far back as 19 years ago, this syndrome was already sweeping Nigerian Families.

Kate Middleton's Post Baby Pictures (Perfect)

While Kim Kardashian hid away for over 2 months after the birth of her baby and still hardly makes public appearances, Princess Katherine is out and about looking radiant and perfect like she was before she ever got pregnant.

Barely 2 months after the birth of the Prince, she attended a gala dinner with her husband in that smashing dress without any sign of stress or post-baby bump while the skinny jeans picture was taken only 5 weeks after the birth of her baby.

She looks so perfect, I can't but agree that indeed, this lady is a complete princess.

How tragic! 8-year-old girl dies after sustaining internal bleeding on her wedding night to a 40 year old man.

This is so sad. I mean, seriously, why will these men prefer to marry children and not women of their age or at least mature enough to be wives and take on the responsibilities of being wives and why will these children's family be so mean that they'll be willing to sell off their daughters to these perverts?

An 8-year-old girl identified only as “Rawan,” died following internal injuries she sustained on her wedding night. The young girl was forced into married to a groom who is reportedly about 40 years old.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Final Part (True Story)

After a couple of months, I moved from my family house into a beautiful BQ and got myself a lovely car. I don't know whether I was trying to heal by splashing gifts on myself but whatever it was, it worked. I stopped missing him and started enjoying myself and being happy again. I became carefree once more and for a long long time, totally removed my mind from husband things and just concentrated on living and enjoying my life. I joined a society in church, dedicated more time to work and splashed some money on some good clothes and salon. My life was back on track and it was a good life.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Part 2 (True Story)

Shortly after that, I noticed that James had become very cold and unresponsive. He even became mean to me and just wasn't acting the 'nice scattered guy' that I'd come to know and love, so, I started probing and asking him what the matter was. After a lot of talks that wasn't leading to anywhere, I told him that I guess he probably needs a break and he jumped at it. We took a break and agreed to talk again in a couple of weeks and those weeks where the worst time of my life.

Bittersweet Heart Break. Part 1 (True Story)

When I was in secondary school, I dreamt of being a wife and a mother. I desired so much to fulfil this dream that I was practically willing to marry the next guy that asks me out when I turned 30 and there still wasn't a man in sight. I didn't care what he was, I felt I could always make the best of any man that I met if only he'll ask me to marry  him. I was afraid that time was no longer on my side and I might end up never living my dream.

It's a big fat lie! Being 35 and above does not make you less fertile than a younger woman says a controversial new book.

I've always been of the opinion that the issue of having problems getting pregnant after 35 is not a universal one. I believe that African women (especially those without any natural fertility issues and those who haven't gone through lots of abortions) can get pregnant for as long as they want until they hit their menopause but all the books and doctors have always said otherwise and made it look like you've committed an unforgivable sin when you're above 35 and only just looking at getting pregnant for the first time.

Prime Minister of Britain, David Cameron vows to spread gay marriage around the world

Seriously, I don't get these people. If they want to legalize gay marriage in their country, all good and fine but why on earth will they want to ensure that they spread the virus all around the world? Could this be just a campaign stunt or is this guy actually an advocate of the devil?

Africa has said gay marriage is against their culture, it's not something they want to be involved in, why then, will a British Prime Minister who knows nothing about other people's culture vow to spread it around the world?

Too much Money. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Spend nearly $1 million on gold plated toilets for their new home.

Kimye's gold plated toilet
Toilet oh! I mean, regular toilet that they'll use to do 'the do' and simply flush. They've spend a whopping $750,000 on four gold-plated toilets for their mansion in Bel Air. This excludes the money they've spend on six special-edition beds which came to almost $1 millions, Swarovski-encrusted fridge and freezer and what-have-you.

Seriously, do these people have too much money or what?

I beg see pictures of the bling bling fridge and other stuff after the cut.

Hi Yimiton, How do I tell my parents I'm pregnant for a man they warned me against?

I don't even know where to start this story from, but I guess I'll have to tell it anyway. 

I met Deji 2 years ago when I was still in Unilag. He was like the most gorgeous man I'd ever seen, tall, well built and extremely handsome. I totally fell for him when we spoke for the first time, I knew I wanted to date him.

I was elated when he eventually asked me out, it was like I was living my dream. I was so in love with this guy and was proud to show him off to all my friends. I also told my parents about him and they were anxious to meet him.

Court of Appeal sets Al-Mustapha free!

The Court of Appeal in Lagos has discharged and acquitted Hamza Al-Mustapha from the murder of Kudirat Abiola.

The judgment overturns that of the Lagos High Court which sentenced him to death by hanging.

The presiding judge accused the lower court of being “stroked to secure a conviction by all means.”

Mr. Al-Mustapha was a former chief security officer to the late dictator, Sani Abacha.

He was sentenced to death on January 30 for conspiracy and murder of Mrs. Abiola.

Mrs. Abiola, 45, was shot in Lagos on June 4, 1996, as the lower court ruled, on the orders of Mr. Al-Mustapha.

I know I've always been silly, but seriously, this is the stupidest thing I've ever done in my life and I'm so confused, I don't even know who to turn to. 

Ever since I was in secondary school, I've been known to be a lover of many women. I used to be very proud of my achievements but when I got married and couldn't stop it, I started wondering if there wasn't something wrong with me. I just can't get satisfied with sleeping with one woman at a time.
