‘Your Dreadlocks Are Irresponsible’ – CBN Governor Allegedly Tells Mr Eazi

CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele who had an encounter with Mr. Eazi at the 2018 Bankers Committee Retreat, allegedly told the singer that his dreadlocks are irresponsible.

This came after Mr. Eazi disclosed that he was invited to the event by the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele and CEO of Deposit Money Banks in Nigeria.

Mr. Eazi had written earlier;

Today, alongside my mentor @chikanwobi I Sat on a panel at the 2018 Bankers Committee Retreat talking “De-Risking the creative & Service Industries” on the invitation of the Governor of the Central Bank Of Nigeria & CEO’s of the Deposit Money Banks in Nigeria! So glad to see the Nigerian banking industry commit towards the future of Nigerian Creatives! Super Excited #LifeisEazi


However, a Twitter user who presents at the event disclosed that CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele allegedly told Mr Eazi that his dreadlocks is irresponsible, And it was gathered that the Governor of the Apex Bank said it was his first impression. @DoubleEph wrote;

I’m dying here. Mr Eazi went to make a presentation to banker’s committee and Emefiele commented that his dreadlocks are irresponsible

I should add that Meffy said it was his first impression. Presumably he’s changed his mind after hearing how much the young man was making from streaming his music


This Is Why I Defeated Goodluck Jonathan In 2015 – President Buhari


The President has revisited the 2015 election, saying he won because Nigerians revolted over endemic corruption. He spoke yesterday at the opening of the Corruption Risk Training for Heads of Anti-Corruption Agencies of the African Union (AU) at the old Banquet Hall of the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

President Muhammadu Buhari said those who plundered the people’s commonwealth had deployed same to destabilise the system, adding that such elements attempted to compromise law enforcement institutions in their desperate bid to escape justice.

He listed Treasury Single Account (TSA), Open Government Partnership (OGP) and various Executive Orders (EOs) as some of the measures his administration took to check looters.

According to him, the pervasive nature and devastating impact of corruption before the election was dysfunctional.

He said: “When we assumed office in May 2015, the pervasive nature and devastating impact of corruption on the Nigerian nation had become dysfunctional. The momentum for our electoral victory could not be separated from the revolt of the people against glaring endemic corruption.”

Buhari said the training facilitated by the Anti-Corruption Academy of Nigeria (ACAN), the research and training arm of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), was at the instance of his administration as part of the support for the war against corruption in our continent.

He said: “The fight against corruption is a battle for the souls of our different countries and it is one that we must win. Since independence our continent has suffered from the severe consequences of corruption and it is imperative that we take steps to reverse the trend.

“During the past several months, we have been taking steps to institute integrity and transparency in the processes of government and holding those who have plundered our commonwealth to account for their actions.

“However, the costs of recovery and sanctions are also enormous. While commendable successes have been recorded, it has become manifest that corruption fights back. With enormous stolen resources, elements have attempted to compromise law enforcing institutions and pervert the course of justice.

“This realisation highlights the necessity of building a system that focuses on preventing corruption. We continue to implement policies aimed at building resilient systems that can withstand assault by corrupt officials.

“Our steps in this direction include the full implementation of both the Treasury Single Account (TSA) and the Bank Verification Number (BVN), the Open Government Partnership, various Executive Orders, strengthening the Anti-Corruption Agencies and permitting their full autonomy.”

“It is in this context of building robust preventive systems that we must understand this initiative which aims to train leaders of anti-corruption agencies in the African Union by deploying Corruption Risk Assessment Methodology for corruption prevention in our countries.

“Corruption Risk Assessment seeks to identify corruption-prone processes and procedures in organisations and recommend appropriate remedial steps.  The methodology places a premium on prevention as an effective complement to enforcement in the war against corruption.

“In 2016, through support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), the ACAN acquired the capacity to conduct training on corruption risk assessment. Since then, the academy has conducted a number of these trainings.

“To showcase the growing appreciation of CRA as a tool for preventing corruption, the Anti-Corruption Academy of Nigeria has received a request for the training of Corruption Risk Assessors for ECOWAS countries from the ECOWAS Commission in Abuja,” the President said.

President Buhari said the training was an opportunity to extend the benefits of the methodology to other African countries, stressing that “it is clear that we have not taken our appointment as Anti-Corruption Champion for the continent for the year 2018 lightly.”

He expressed optimism that most of the countries have subscribed to not only the United Nations Convention against Corruption (UNCAC), but also the African Union Convention on Preventing and Combating Corruption (AUCPCC).

‘I Don’t Want To Have Any Regrets’- Hazard On Real Madrid Move


Chelsea forward, Eden Hazard, has again spoken about being linked with Real Madrid and admitted he does not want to have any regrets at the end of his career.

Hazard has previously spoken of how a move to the Bernabeu would be a “dream”, fuelling speculation he will soon be on his way out of Stamford Bridge.

The Belgian’s deal is due to expire in 2020 and a new contract has yet to be agreed, although Chelsea remain determined to hold on to their star man.

And Hazard has now revealed talks with the Blues are on hold, as he dropped another strong hint that his future lies in the Spanish capital.

“There was a bit of talk (with Chelsea), but then it stopped, now we’re waiting,” he told French radio station RMC.

“Not yet,” Hazard added when asked if he knew where his future lay.

“The new (Chelsea) coach (Maurizio Sarri) thinks football like me, so we’ll see.

“The family is in London, I’m also going to be 28. I do not want to have any regrets at the end of my (career). It’s a decision I’m going to make, I do not know when, but I’ll make it.”

EPL: Drogba sends message to Aubameyang for ‘stealing’ his goal celebration



Chelsea legend, Didier Drogba, has sent a message to Arsenal star Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, after the forward borrowed his celebration during the Gunners’ 4-2 win against Tottenham on Sunday.

Unai Emery’s men ran out winners in the North London derby thanks to two goals from Aubameyang.

Drogba recently retired after an illustrious 23-year career and the Ivory Coast legend used to celebrate his goals with a famous pumped celebration.

And the 40-year-old sent a message to Aubameyang after the Gabon striker appeared to use his celebration against Spurs.

Taking to his official Instagram page, Drogba captioned a photo of Aubameyang: “When your lil bro does your signature #spreadyourwings #blessings”

Money Rituals: Why I Asked My Client To Bring Human Parts – Herbalist Makes Confessions

The Osun State Commissioner of Police, Fimihan Adeoye, has paraded a herbalist identified as Amos Sulaimon, in Osogbo, alongside his client, for engaging in killing for ritual.

According to PUNCH Metro, while speaking to journalist during the parade, the ritualist said that he told his client, Supo Bamidele, to bring a human head and wrists in order to discourage him from engaging in money ritual.

The Police Commissioner said that Bamidele was caught with a severed head and wrist in Ile-Ife, and upon his arrest, told the police that his herbalist asked him to bring the human parts for ritual.

While explaining what transpired between him and his client, Sulaimon stated, “I am an herbalist and I live and work in Ile-Ife. Bamidele had been coming to me to seek spiritual assistance. I inherited this job from my father and we don’t engage in money rituals.

“I don’t do evil nor engage in money rituals. In the last four months, Bamidele had been disturbing me for spiritual assistance, because he claimed that his business was not doing well and that he wanted a charm that could improve his fortunes.

“Because he would not allow me to rest, I told him to bring a human head and wrist. It was a ploy to scare him away. I never knew he would go to the extent of looking for the items.”

Responding to questions from journalists, Bamidele, who sells planks, said he resorted to fortune-changing charms because he was not doing well in the business, adding that his wife and children had left him because he could not provide for their needs.

He said that he exhumed a corpse at a burial ground in Onikooko area of Ile-Ife, severed the head and wrist, and headed for the residence of the herbalist.

“I was, however, caught inside a tricycle that I took while going to my herbalist’s house. I didn’t know any of the people buried in the cemetery; I just went there and took the parts that I needed,” he stated

Strike: We have reached partial agreement with ASUU- Chris Ngige

The Minister of Labour and Employment, Chris Ngige, says the  lingering strike action of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), might soon come to an end as the leadership of the union and the Federal government have reached a partial agreement.

Recall that the academic union began their strike action on November 5th to demand better funding for the Education sector. 

Speaking after a reconciliation meeting with the union yesterday December 10th, the Minister told newsmen that the strike would soon be called off as efforts are being made to meet the demands of the union.

“We have finished our deliberation. I am happy to report that we touched some areas of understanding in implementation from the memorandum of action which we agreed to in 2017. Some of these areas we have substantial compliance and some other areas have not been fully dealt with. Like the issue of shortfall in salaries of some federal universities’ workers and lecturers, ASUU has given a list to the accountant-general’s office and we have agreed that by Wednesday that list should be cross-checked by the presidential initiative on continuous auditing. So, the accountant-general’s office is to get back to us by Wednesday.

“We also have the issue of earned allowances, revitalisation, these are issues of 2009 agreement and partial implementation and we have agreed on the modus operandi to look into the fund situation, this is due to low revenue on the part of government.

We have agreed on what we are going to do to make sure that the outstanding amount is handled in a way that all parties will be properly accommodated. We also discussed the issue of state universities and agreed also that even if education is on the concurrent list, the universities should be properly funded and staffed so that we do not produce half-baked students from those universities. In realisation of this, the ministry of education will set up a committee, that would engage the Nigeria Governors’ Forum, and the minister of education has taken steps in that direction to formalise the interaction. Thus discussion are fruitful and we do hope that in the next adjourned date we would have had the requisite result on the few agreements reached today.” he said


Also speaking to newsmen, the National president of ASUU, Abiodun Ogunyemi, said

“Our own understanding is that we heard promises made on the part of government, we shall await the report on all the issues, which they have made the promises. Only after that, we can get back to our members to take a decision.”


Man Beaten Mercilessly After He Was Caught Wearing Bra While Trying To Steal Pant For Money Ritual in Delta (Photo)



The suspect after he was apprehended

A Nigerian man has been humiliated and beaten mercilessly after he was apprehended wearing bra on Friday night while on an alleged mission to steal underwear in Delta State that he would use for money ritual.

It was gathered that the suspect was reportedly caught by local vigilante in Agbarha area of the state after he had allegedly stolen a bra and was looking for underwear to steal to complete his mission.

When he was quizzed by the security operatives, the suspect allegedly confessed that a man whom he asked to show him the way to make money told him to go and find where to hustle underwear and bra before he helps him.

He was told after picking or stealing the items, he should meet him at a popular Tozak hotel in Ughelli area.

He was caught by vigilante members after stealing only one bra.

Below is what Facebook user Ofejiro Skillz wrote:

"Oman this thing dey worst oo this guy go thief bra for agbarha yesterday night and wen bakasi hold d idiot he begin dey confess say if he go tozak hotel say the boys Dy trow away money and he dy pick almost 5k dey come house and when he ask one of the boys to show am road ,the guy come say make he find bra and underwear come ,say if he don see d bra and pant make he come meet dem for tozak,say Na only bra he don see remain pant."

How to make natural hair soft and curly


A lot of people with natural afro hair often ask: ‘where can I learn how to make my natural hair soft?’ we have the answer! We will tell you how to make natural hair soft and curly in the easiest ways possible. So check this article out if you want your hair to be all cute and healthy.

The easiest way to make natural hair soft

If you have had your natural hair for a while, chances are, you are already aware of this method. It simply calls for the use of leave-in conditioner. It is a tried and true method of getting your hair moisturised and soft.

The best way to get the most out of your conditioner is to warm it up before application and apply it all over moist hair. If you have your hair in twists or braids, it is best to undo them and apply conditioner to each individual strand. After that, leave it in your hair for up to half an hour and wrap your head in a towel. Then, carefully rinse it off and enjoy your silky smooth hair.

How to make natural hair soft with the caramel treatment

If you do not want to use any chemicals on your hair, we have several recipes you can try out, one of them being the caramel treatment. For it, you will need:

1/4 cup of blackstrap molasses;1/2 cup of honey;1/2 cup of olive oil;3 jars of baby food (banana flavoured);A teaspoon of apple cider vinegar.

Yes, you read it right, you are going to be using baby food to make your hair softer. It is a neat trick we have recently learned, as using banana baby food instead of just regular mashed banana is much more convenient (and easier to get out of the hair).

Mix all the ingredients thoroughly and apply the mixture to your hair with an applicator brush. Do not comb it through, as it might actually damage your hair in the process. When you are done applying it, put on a shower cap and leave it for at least half an hour (you can even leave it overnight). After that, thoroughly wash it all off, and your hair should be nice and smooth.

How to soften natural hair (Cherry Lola treatment)

Beauty blogger by the name of Cherry Lola has come up with her own treatment, and we will tell you all about it. For this recipe, you will need:

Two cups of plain yogurt (organic);10 tablespoons of liquid amino acids;3 tablespoons of baking soda.

Mix the ingredients until they are well incorporated, and then leave the mixture until it gets foamy. Apply to clean hair and leave in for 20-40 minutes.

How to soften natural hair without relaxer with henna method

While henna is usually used to make hair red, it can also be used to make hair softer. For this treatment, you are going to need:

Four bags of green tea;Two tablespoons of honey;A jar of henna (150-200 grams, depending on how long your hair is).

If you want to keep your hands and surfaces clean, use gloves, plastic cup, a bowl and a spoon. You should also cover the surrounding surfaces with some newspapers or something similar to avoid semi-permanent stains.

After that, follow these steps:

Heat up about two cups of water until almost boiling. Put the teabags in the water and leave them in for a while.Put henna in a bowl, and when the ‘tea’ has gotten cooler, pour it into the same bowl and mix until you get the mashed potato consistency.Wash your hair, detangle it with your fingers and leave it slightly damp.Add some honey to your tea/henna mixture until it gets as thick as pudding.Apply the treatment to the hair working back to front until all your hair is covered.Put a plastic cap on your head and leave it overnight or even longer. You can leave it on for as long as 16 hours or even more.Gently remove the paste from your hair with your fingers and wash it off with warm water.When almost everything is out, apply some conditioner and then jump into the shower to finish the job. Rinse thoroughly so that there is nothing left.

If you want to get even better results, use the deep conditioning treatment afterwards, and your hair will be nice and soft.

How to make your natural hair soft with the coconut milk treatment

The last recipe we want to share with you is the treatment made with coconut milk. For this, you are going to need:

A can of coconut milkTwo tablespoons of oil (you can use any type of oil)Two tablespoons of honeyFour tablespoons of plain yogurt (plain)Juice of one limeSome cornflour

Mix everything together in a bowl, but do not include the corn flour yet. Then, start adding the cornflour by half a teaspoon until you get the consistency you want. Apply the mixture to clean hair and leave it in for half an hour before rinsing with a sulphate-free shampoo.

How to curl natural hair without heat

If you are trying to figure out how to make natural hair curly and soft, we can give you one major tip: stay away from everything that involves you applying heat to your hair. It can easily undo everything you have just done from the previous section and leave your hair dry, coarse and brittle.

For that reason, we want to offer you a quick rundown of how you can get lovely curls without using any heat. Here are five simple ways you can try:

Finger coils

One of the simplest ways of getting cute little curls without heat is finger coils. All you need is a moisturising curl cream and your fingers. Wet the hair, apply the cream (or you can use leave-in conditioner) and put your fingers to work! It is somewhat time consuming, but the end result is worth it.

Bantu knots

Not only are they a great hairstyle altogether, but they are also a great method of getting curls. Wash your hair, detangle it, leave it partly wet and do your hair up in bantu knots, section after section. Use curl cream if necessary. After you are done with walking around with bantu knots on your head, carefully unwrap each knot and get your luscious curls.

Flexi rods

These magical soft and bendy sticks come in all shapes and sizes, so you can definitely find the ones that fit you specifically. You can wrap your hair around them (either dry or moist) and leave them in overnight and wake up to a full head of curls!

Perm rods

Similarly to the flexi rods, these sticks can help you get your curls, only these are usually short and rigid. It is also best to leave them overnight, but this time, you should certainly wet your hair and apply some leave-in conditioner or other moisturising products beforehand. After a good night’s sleep, you will have your adorable curls.

Curl formers

Probably one of the fastest way to get your hair all nice and curly is by using curl formers. You just need to wet your hair, put some product in and then put your hair in these curl formers strand by strand. Leave them overnight a have a curly head in the morning!

Try them out, find the ones that work best for you and enjoy your silky curly hair!

Dear Nigerian musicians,learn from Falz.Everyday is not for breast,yansh and popping bottles

Use your talent and platform to motivate and inspire the people who are your fans.

Falz.  (notjustok.com)

It felt like redemption when I came online after a little hiatus and saw the internet overwhelmed with Falz's public display of creativity soaked in the water of i-have-to-say-it-now-or-never.

Social Media Mess

left the internet when twitter Nigeria started trending hashtags like "#bigbumbumtwitter, #bigbreasttwitter and other big things that contributed little to the existence of humanity. 

Coming back it was a breath of fresh air.  Seeing the same people who trended their breasts and butt trending the sheer creativity of falz.  That was good for democracy.

I've always found it funny that musicians in Nigeria who live in a country where there are no roads,  no light,  paralyzed healthcare system, joke of a government, body-present senators and all the evil things your mind can conceive are busy screaming in their studios "I get big banana" "30billion for the account" "coedine diet" and so on and so forth.

Awareness.

You may want to argue that they have their place in entertainment and I will totally oblige. But hey,  if you can make us shaku in this economy, you will not die if you bring out 4 minutes of your time to shout at the government. 

Future generation  (Frisky Larr)

Tell them that you are aware of their madness.  Use your art and tell sublime truths.  Use your voice and highlight the ills of the day.  Use your talent and platform to motivate and inspire the people who are your fans.

Materialism.

I see a number of Nigerian musicians and all they do on instagram is flaunt wealth.  Flaunt chains. Flaunt jets and all that. 

All those things are good for your self esteem and showbiz, but, you won't die if you take a short break from that trivialityand do some meaningful thing that will help the next generation. Moreover, a hundred years from now,  those videos of you flaunting cash will be seen as idiocy.

A number of Nigerian musicians,all they do on instagram is flaunt wealth.  (www.naijanewspapers.com.ng)

These musicians masquerade as people who Fela inspired.  Many of them say it for formalities. The only inspiration they drew from Fela is having baby mamas anytime they are bored.  But the real thing which made Fela a legend is a far cry from them. 

After watching "This is America" by Childish Gambino, I shook my head and almost called out our musicians.  Glad I didn't.  Uncle falz did justice to that beat in less than four minutes and I am proud of him..

Truth is bitter.

There is a prize that comes with saying the truth in a system that truth is labeled a treasonable offense.  Falz threw caution to the wind and said his truth.  Our truth.  The truth of being Nigerian. And in my opinion, this a bold step that only one person can take and watch others follow.  He did it.

It is the job of other musicians to do so.  Nobody is begging you money.  Say our truth for us.  You have a voice.  Use it for the sake of your children who will ask you one day "Daddy why did you born me in this country"

Say the Truth.  (chicagotribune.com)

Do it for the poor ! Do it for the souls of young Nigerians who are roaming the streets jobless.. Do it for my friend who died because there was no fuel in the generator for oxygen in a government hospital.  Do it for all the people who died as a result of bad roads.

Say the truth for the sake of the thousands souls whose blood has been shed because they were in a certain place in Nigeria where some people feel it is their right to bomb people as a sports because the government is spelt in incompetence!

Everyday isn't for breast and yansh and popping bottles.  Some days in the studio,  leave breast alone.  Leave nyash.  Think humanity!

Think love!

Think unity!

Think freedom!

Inside the underground hotel in Africa that took a man 11 years to dig


If you suffer from claustrophobia and have a fear of the dark, then this kooky underground hotel in Africa might not be for you.  

Travel blogger Drew Goldberg, 27, from Arizona, visited a rural part of Malawi, where he discovered the unusual inn. 

In a video he explains that it took a man named Chifundu 11 years to dig the guesthouse out of the clay-like mud, and now he charges anywhere from 68 cents to $2 for people to stay.

In a video he explains that it took a man named Chifundu 11 years to dig the guesthouse out of the clay-like mud, and now he charges anywhere from 68 cents to $2 for people to stay 

Venturing into the hotel, Goldberg explains that a main staircase leading off the entrance 'just keeps going down and down'.

As there is no electricity, it makes filming a little difficult but Goldberg manages to shed some light on the interiors.

He explains that there are a total of ten rooms at the hotel. 

The beds appear to be pretty simple, with mats placed on top of rectangular mounds of mud.  

There are ten rooms in total but no electricity or mattresses

Goldberg points out that 'at least there are pillows' as he gives one of the beds a test

Goldberg points out that 'at least there are pillows' as he gives one of the beds a test.

'Not bad for $2 a night. I could sleep here easily,' he exclaims.

Venturing back to daylight, Goldberg discovers the kitchen in the backyard, with a stove fashioned out of bricks. 

Apparently Chifundu started digging the hotel in 1974 and finished his project in 1985. 

Goldberg says there is no electricity or internet in the area.  

While it might not make for the most comfortable of stays, Goldberg concludes: 'Chifundu is an amazing person who is as happy as I’ve ever seen a human being.

'It's worth coming here just to meet him.' 

Goldberg, who has been to more than 130 countries since 2012 making videos via his blog 'Drew Binsky' and Facebook, plans to hit Bhutan for his next adventure.
