Despite its crumbling economy, Zimbabwe, a country which has been ranked among the world's worst-performing countries, has been rated 'the most highly developed country in Africa' by it's President Robert Mugabe.
The controversial leader made the declaration during the World Economic Forum on Africa which took place Thursday in Durban, South Africa.
When asked to comment on the global belief about Zimbabwe being the perfect example of a failed nation. Responding to the statement, Mugabe declared that his country is the most highly developed country in Africa.
'That is not true!' He started, adding that 'Zimbabwe is the most highly developed country in Africa. After South Africa, I want to see another country as highly developed.
To justify his declaration, he said: 'We have a bumper harvest,' he continued, 'not only maize but also tobacco and many other crops. We are not a poor country. If anyone wants to call us fragile, they can. You can also call America fragile,'
BON EXCLUSIVE: Mercy is Mentally Unstable…Husband Speaks
Larry Gentry, the businessman husband of actress, Mercy Aigbe, has sensationally revealed that his wife and mother of his son, is mentally unstable. In a chat with BONONLINE, Wednesday morning, Larry said, “Mercy has mental issues and i am the one who knows how many places we’ve been to so she can remain stable. I have papers to prove these.”
Larry, who has come under several attacks for allegedly beating the popular actress, disclosed that contrary to the news that made the rounds, it was Mercy that ganged up with her friends in her designer, Luminee House, to attack him. He claimed that while the others beat him, his wife hit him hard with a stool.
Invoking biblical curses on himself, the auto merchant sweared that he has never beaten Mercy in their seven years of marriage despite the fact that he has caught her several times frollicking and fornicating with different men.
He gave an example of last year when she said that she was going to China for two weeks but instead, spent the whole time in a Dubai hotel with a man. To lend credence to this claim, Larry showed us different whatsapp conversations to buttress this allegation and a particular one where Mercy was asking a third party to get some dollars from the man for her.
“When I challenged my wife, she said she only wanted to collect money from him – a married woman!!! But i discovered that it was the same man that paid for the Magodo house she just moved to, which i also found out had been rented over a month ago.”
Continuing, Larry said, “See, i understand Mercy’s antics too well. All she wants is to move out of my house and be free to live the life of a single woman. What i have tolerated from her all these years, no man can tolerate from any woman.” He said further that as a husband, “I worship mercy and I have deposited N8m at Benefit Motors to buy her a N16m Range Rover ENVOGUE for her 40th birthday. I have also paid N1.2m for a hall opposite Sheraton Hotel to celebrate her big but she has her eyes on other things.”
Asked why he has not consulted her family to intervene, he says Mercy has no regard for her parents, citing an example of last year when her dad collapsed while on the queue to get his pension and was rushed to the hosipital. When the actress was informed, Larry said she lied that she was in Calabar and till now, had not gone to see the old man. He claimed that he was the one that went there and spent about N180,000, adding that because she refused to take care of her mom, he put the old woman on a salary of N25, 000 per month.
Attempts to reach Mercy were unsuccesfull as at the time of posting this story.

The Oyo State Police Command has commenced investigation into the death of Miss Deborah Effiong, a 100-level Law student at the University of Ibadan.
The Oyo State Commissioner of Police, Mr Abiodun Odude, made this known in a telephone interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Thursday in Ibadan.
Odude said police investigation into the incident followed the report by the university’s authority.
He gave an assurance that the outcome of the investigation would be made public as soon as it was completed.
The University of Ibadan had on Wednesday issued a statement through its Director of Public Communication, Mr Olatunji Oladejo, announcing the death of Effiong.
Oladejo expressed the regret of the university management over the sudden death of the student at the University College Hospital, Ibadan.
“Her sudden death, however, remains a mystery and it is in the light of this that the university management wishes to state that the cause(s) of her death are still being investigated by the appropriate authorities.
“Her parents had been duly contacted by the relevant key officers of the university on the loss.
“It is pertinent to state that by the tradition of the Queen Elizabeth II Hall where she was a resident, an event tagged “Freshers/Finalists’ Week’’ was organised by the Hall’s Executive Committee.
“The first day being Monday, 01 May, 2017 featured ‘’Health Day’’ in the morning and “Movie Show’’ at 7.00pm.
“Her colleagues reported that the deceased was seen at the Hall Cafeteria, the venue of the Movie Show and it was reported that her “normal self’’ was seen at about 8.40 pm.
“Thereafter, she received a telephone call from a fellow; she left the venue of the movie show to meet the caller.
“The fellow had been identified after her death by the Campus Security Service,’’ Oladejo said.
He further explained that on getting back to the venue of the movie show, her colleagues stated that she suddenly became hyperactive and developed a strange attitude.
Oladejo added that her colleagues said Effiong danced abnormally and excessively in the cafeteria after the meeting.
“It was further revealed that she left the venue of the movie show and, thereafter, there was a bang, which her colleagues explained, she jumped from a dangerous position in the Hall.
“She was later found by her colleagues in a seemingly helpless condition in the precinct of the Hall and immediately, she was rushed to the university’s health centre by her colleagues and porters on duty.
“She was later referred to the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, for further medical attention where all efforts to save her life proved abortive,’’ Oladejo said.
Effiong was said to have died overnight at the tertiary health institution.
According to a new biography, former US president Barack Obama proposed to a woman he dated in the 80's who rejected his proposal twice before he met and married his wife, Michelle Obama. The woman is said to be Sheila Miyoshi Jager who is of Dutch and Japanese descent.
The author of the new book, "Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama," David Garrow, says Obama met Jager in the mid-'80s when he was doing community organizing in Chicago.
Garrow said that when he interviewed Jager, she told him that even back then, Obama had a strong belief he'd someday become President of the United States.
She also told the author Obama had "a deep-seated need to be loved and admired." Adding that in 1986 Obama asked her to marry him, but her parents were opposed because they thought she was too young to get married, so she turned him down, but they continued dating.
Then, Garrow says, Obama's presidential ambitions became a centerpiece of their relationship, which caused a conflict between them because he worried that marrying a non-African-American wife would do him political damage.
Garrow says he "felt trapped between the woman he loved and the destiny he knew was his."
Obama then went to Harvard Law School in 1988 and the relationship became strained but Jager says Obama again asked her to marry him before he left, but she was off on a research trip to Seoul and rejected his proposal, for the second time.
Obama then met and started dating Michelle after their first year in law school but, according to Garrow, he was still occasionally seeing Jager. But when he solidified his relationship with Michelle, he stopped seeing Jager.
Jager, is now a professor of East Asian Studies at Oberlin College.
A five year old little girl who was being married off to her nine-year-old 'husband' was rescued by welfare officials, as they stood at the altar to get married to each other, while their parents looked on.. The wedding ceremony which was taking place in Mambapur, Telangana state, central India, was fortunately stopped by India's Child Welfare Department officials, who carried the crying 5 year old child away from the venue and into protective custody.
The wedding was said to be a part of a reported caste ritual.
Children's rights activist Achyuta Rao from charity Balala Hakkula Sangham said the parents were conducting the marriage because someone had died recently in the household.
He said:
"As per their custom, no relative will enter their house after the death of a family member, unless they perform an 'auspicious event' and celebrate it."
Police reportedly counselled the parents of both children after the wedding was disrupted.

According to her,
"The two dates were chosen and compelled by Satan for them to lure unsuspecting numerous souls to a banquet of death, that will result in strange holocaust in our nation. After the wedding, you will be hearing and seeing incidents of plane crashes, fire incidents, multiple road accidents, tankers and trailer killing people, cancers, diseases of kidney, liver, prostrate, eyes issues and diverse health problem causing strange death in people and the economy situation will worsen.”
She revealed that she is not against the wedding but only want the date to be shifted until after her son;s birthday.
"I am not against the wedding, all I am relentlessly pleading is for a shift in the date and they turned against me, even on the 11th and 13th of May they are planning to assassinate me or keep me in police custody from 10th – 14th May 2017, when they would have completed the devilish wedding ceremony. Sir, is this a wedding ceremony or a clever, premeditated, devilishly calculated scheme to sacrifice thousands of souls as they come to the feast of death, ostensibly announced as wedding ceremony? I am alive and healthy and I am not mad, God used me to convince my son to change his mind to marry this lady called Tope Adebutu, now they want to kill me by all means possible.”
Mrs. Taiwo Obasanjo also said she would stage a peaceful, public protest on the days of the wedding, and had already informed the police.
“This protest is to bring out people to praise the Almighty God very loud with songs and drummers to sing and dance like King David, as they hold the demonic ceremony. We will not insult or abuse anyone. Please, I want the whole world to know that I am not mad and I am not against my son’s wedding but the whole truth will be revealed by the Almighty God who sees in secret all that is hidden, for the power of the Almighty God is supreme. Reminder will be sent out to let people know that as many as are free, can join me in praising the Almighty God publicly when then wedding day draws near.”
Mrs. Obasanjo’s letter comes weeks after her suit at the Ikeja Division of the Lagos High Court was dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

Actress Adesua Etomi and singer Banky W really did their best in keeping their relationship off the public and they won!.
So, I just went back to revisit the birthday post she made for him on the 27th of March, and I just realized that no clue was given! She just sent it like a normal birthday post even though they were already engaged.
The first underlined words got me wondering if that was the first words Banky W used when he slid into her DM. Remember she said;
"He slid into my DM and sent the funniest message and that was how we became friend[/b]s[b]. " and he said;
"Now I personally don't like being "hooked up", so I decided to approach you myself[b] by sliding into your DM[/b] a few days later. Introduced myself, made some silly attempts to make you laugh".
Wedding Party Star, Banky W shared pictures of some scene from the part two of the movie.
Banky W who married Adesua Etomi in the first part of the movie, shared a picture of an heavily pregnant Adesua Etomi, and other picture of other cast such as RMD, Eyinna Nwigwe.

A 40 year old Nigerian man identified as Alhassan Zambram was early this week found dead in his room at the East Tanokrom, a suburb of Takoradi, Ghana. Although the exact circumstances leading to his death is yet unknown, it is suspected that he was murdered as a blood stained machete was found lying close to his corpse.
Confirming the incident, the Public Relations Officer of the Western Regional Police Command in Ghana, Olivia Eyrabena Adiku, said that the police was investigating the incident.
According to Olivia, one Fusieni Ibrahim, the landlord of House Number H/No.Pt.197 East Tanokrom, informed the police in the area about the alleged murder. ASP Adiku said the landlord told the police that at about 5:20 am on Monday May 1st, he went to the mosque to pray and when he returned he was informed that his tenant Alhassan Zambram, a Nigerian national, has been found dead in his room. She said the landlord and other tenants rushed to the police station to report the case and later the body was conveyed and deposited at the Effia Nkwanta Regional Hospital mortuary at Sekondi for preservation and autopsy. According to Adiku, no arrest has been made.
“We are still investigating. We cannot say anything at the moment. We are not ruling out foul play though.”she said
"15 years in America as a green card holder, i never felt any type of pressure to change status, all these years until Trump came. I always thought the blue passport was not necessary afterall i was still nursing big political ambitions for Nigeria.
I never cared for the inconvenience of being separated from the rest of my family who are all Americans to boot, ( except Stephy who is French) when ever we had to pass through immigrations on our many travels. And then Trump and his extreme vetting policies which by the way folks is no joke."Questions like forsaking all royalty and titles, will you bear arms for the country, when and why did your name change from Imaobong to Regina, have you ever been arrested, do you have any criminal records, do you owe money under a different name, when did you first come into America, when and where did you get married, how many times have you been married, what was your entry point into the country ( to ensure I did not float over on a log or scurry over in a tunnel). Why does your adopted daughter have the same name as you ( africans know its a thing of honor to have a child named after you), what is your source of income, what outstanding fees do you owe ( at this point my heart flutters, maybe Great Lakes has told them things about school loans). I was surprised they didn't ask if I was born female. Anyway after all said and done..... I got a handshake and walked out of there as............"
