WAEC Threatens To Withhold 19 States Results Over Debts




Hundreds of candidates who sat for the May/June
West African Senior School Certificate Examination
may not have their results released in the next two
weeks, the West African Examinations Council has
announced.

No fewer than 19 states of the federation owe the
council about N4bn examination registration fees.
The WAEC Head of National Office, Lagos, Mr.
Charles Eguridu, announced this on Monday at a
briefing in Lagos.
He, however, failed to make public the affected
states.
Eguridu said, "A total number of 19 states in the
country owe the Council in respect of entry fees
for state government sponsored candidates for the
May/June 2015 WASSCE. Some states also still owe
the Council registration fees for the May/June 2014
WASSCE.
"We have written to the affected state
governments without any response. The poor
response of the debtor states is threatening the
smooth operations of the Council.
"We, therefore, want to publicly plead with the
affected states to off-set the registration fees of
their candidates as soon as possible, as we cannot
guarantee that the results of their candidates for
the May/June 2015 will be released along with
others."

Arsenal Ready To Drop £40million Bid For Benzema


New reports have it that Arsenal FC are ready to table a whooping
£40million before Real Madrid in signing 27-year-old Karim Benzema…
Especially because of the departures of Lukas Podolski and Yaya Sanogo
(to Ajax on loan).
According to Spanish journalist, Paco Gonzalez, Arsenal boss, Arsene
Wenger, called up Benzema, whom he has firmly admired a few times
this summer, to discuss a possible move to the Emirates.
Although both Benzema, who had recently signed a contract extension
with Madrid, which expires in 2019 and Madrid are not keen on the
transfer, he might be forced to move eventually, with new manager Rafa
Benitez looking to give Cristiano Ronaldo a more central attacking berth.
Asernal fans… You like him?

7 Reasons Why Most Upcoming Artistes Will Never Blow


Most upcoming artistes fail to blow not by destiny or ill luck, but as a
result of lack of priorities, styles and many more which we shall discuss.
1. They Don't Advertise Themselves
If you think miracle is all you need to blow, then you must be seriously
sleeping on a moving bicycle. To blow in Nigeria, you have to advertise
yourself aggressively and give it whatever it takes. As a matter of fact,
it's not a bad idea advertising that track of yours on N aijaloaded where
we have music freaks who are always at alert to download Naijaloaded
front page musics, and may not even hesitate to share it with their friends
if it's really worth it. You can ask Qdot and Olamide, they will confirm
to you that good music will surely help your Career.
2. They Patronize Cheap Producers
You need not sing like Michael Jackson before you blow. However, the
impact of good production cannot be overemphasized anytime any day.
Most upcoming artistes may not blow because they always patronize
backyard producers who will produce 5 tracks for them at the rate of
N10, 000. Ooooh common that ridiculously cheap !!.
We know you are not rich yet! But at least, spending as little as N20, 000
to produce a single track is much more better than seeking producers
who produce 5 tracks for N10, 000
3. Lack of Creativity
What makes one stand out amongst his peers is creativity and
uniqueness. However, many upcoming artistes fail to get to the peak of
their dreams not because witches and wizards are following them, but
because they are not creative in any way.
4. Pride
Pride is also a determinant of how far one will go in his music career.
However, it is very evident that it's the habit of most upcoming artistes
to always give people a false sense of their financial status through their
dressings, spending and what not. They are sometimes proud that they
raise shoulders to people who are meant to help or make their dreams
come true in a little way they can. This is one of the reasons why many
of them have failed to blow
5. Poor Dress Sense
They say your appearance is the first letter of recommendation. The
mode of dressing of many upcoming artistes is sometimes childish and
annoying. You see many of them dressing like masquerades; looking
unkempt, poor colour combination, unattractive hairstyle, and many
more which I cannot mention. The truth of the matter is that, when your
appearance cannot catch people"s fancy, how do you convince them to
listen to your track?
6. Immature Lyrics
Good lyrics and punch lines is all you need to at least gain some
recognition. When you listen to the songs of many upcoming artistes,
you will keep wondering if the songs was composed within the ambit of
5mins. That is, they sing a chorus repeatedly for about three minutes
after which a verse will follow suite and that's the end of the song.
Haba !!! It may be working for Vizkid but that doesn't mean you should
try that
7. Imitating The Style Of Others
To succeed in life, you have to do something others are not doing, or
what they have never done. As a matter of fact, we know that 2face
already has his own style and that's his brand, so why copy his style as a
leverage to also get to limelight ?, when you know that you may be seen
as a copy cat . Try to build up your own style

Stop Making Fun Of Pastors In Your Jokes, Oyakhilome Warns Comedians




Pastor Oyakhilome has warned comedians asking them to stop making jest of pastors while cracking jokes. According to him, this is not a message from him, but from God. The General Overseer of Christ Embassy made this known during a meeting which holds every first Sunday of the month with the BLW nation’s citizens worldwide and a host of other global audience spanning more than 6 continents via live transmission across TV stations and online platforms around the world.
“For those of you, who are comedians, try all you can not to make fun with pastors in your comedy. Because you are going to see some comedians whose lives would be a comedy. This is what the lord said I should tell you. Because a lot of them who does such will have their lives reduced. Which means you are going to see them and say; is this you? Is this what your life has become? Don’t joke with sacred things. Pastors occupy sacred place. You must know what to joke with and what not to joke with,” the Pastor said.
He that has ears let him hear

8 Ways To Keep Your v**ina Feeling FRESH 24/7



Harbiodinho.com-ladysV-
First order of business: Don’t douche.
There’s nothing that can put a stop to intimate fun like feeling funky in your lady parts.
“A number of everyday triggers, including your period, pregnancy, s*x or some medications can upset the delicate vaginal ecosystem and elevate pH, which should always be maintained at 4.3-4.5. When pH is unbalanced, odor-causing microorganisms can flourish.
Many women run to the drug store for fragrance sprays; and wipes and pads just to mask the problem, which can actually be harmful to delicate tissue,” says Machelle Seibel, M.D., and OB/GYN.
So, how can we keep our vaginas feeling pretty down there? Try these tips:
1. Eat more fruit.
There’s plenty of legends out there that pineapple juice or strawberries make you smell good in your neither regions. And the same is true for men, too. Can sweet fruit really lead to sweet fruit? Maybe. And it can’t hurt to try.
Plus, you’ll be eating healthier, and that can only bring good things for your vajayjay.
2. Keeping that area dry.
Don’t hang out in a wet bathing suit or run errands in wet work out clothing.
“Even if you don’t have access to a shower, bring a change of dry clothes with you to decrease your chances of getting a yeast infection,” says Seibel.
3. Wear cotton underwear.
Although silk and lace underwear feels sexy, cotton underwear is better for v**ina health. Try to wear it as often as you can. Your v**ina will thank you.
4. Take probiotics.
If your v**ina smells funky, something weird may be going on. That can mean bacteria or an infection. If you take a probiotic vitamin, or start eating more probiotic yogurt, you can nix that bacteria before it starts becoming an issue.
5. Try a cleansing ritual.
Those fancy bidets exist for a reason, but chances are you don’t have one handy. Keep your lady parts clean by gently washing with a cloth dipped in water and fragrance-free soap each time you shower — and before and after you have s*x.
You’ll be keeping your v**ina clean without throwing off your pH balance.
6. Stay away from douching.
“Douching is potentially very dangerous. If you have a problem with odor that’s not related to a medical condition, try keeping your pubic hair trimmed … pubic hair is meant to trap bacteria and particles so they don’t enter the v**ina, but those things may cause odors,” says Taylor Stokes, a sexpert at Free Your V.
7. Clean yourself up after s*x.
s*x is super fun, but let’s be real. All sorts of gross stuff is passed back and forth.
Help prevent UTIs, often caused from the spread of bacteria during s*x, by tossing some intimate cleansing wipes in your purse. An alcohol-free wipe is your best option, so look for something like Freshends Luxurious Towelettes, which are adult flushable wipes made with natural ingredients, including aloe, vitamin E, cucumber extract and chamomile.
They’re individually-wrapped and no larger than a credit card. And bring enough to share, because guys can also use wipes like these (before or after s*x) on areas that are sweaty, sticky or smelly … so, like, all over.
8. Always pee after s*x.
Quite simply, it helps to clean out those pipes. Peeing after s*x will help you avoid the dreaded UTI.

Has Emeka Ike’s Wife Filed For Divorce?



emeka ike
Reports floating around now have it that Emeka Ike’s wife has filed for divorce from her husband of 12 years. Emma alleges that Emeka assaulted her constantly and called her a witch whenever they fought.
Unconfirmed sources say that she told a customary court, “It was when my husband beat me mercilessly I believed that people truly saw stars whenever they were unconscious. It was my brother who took me to the hospital where I spent two months. There was also a day I was feeding our last child with tea, my husband, out of anger took the tea and poured it on my head.”
 “I even persuaded his sister to bring four of her children to our school without paying a dime but instead of showing appreciation, she said I was a lavish spender and that was how I stopped being in charge of his school.”
emeka ike and wife
She continued, “Each time we fight, he calls me a witch saying whenever he intends to start a project and he informs me it eventually fails. He also said if he hadn’t married me, I would have become a prostitute. Since I left, he doesn’t allow me to speak with our first two children asking me to come home if I really want to see them. Even when I was in with him, he leaves home for months on the pretext of different appointments. I can’t face all this anymore. I need help.”
It has been reported that the court case has been adjourned till July 22, 2015.

Your Opinion!!! What Will You Do If Your Wife Did This To You?





A woman tells her husband that she is going to visit her sick mum in the village. She goes on Friday and returns on Sunday, with plenty of fruits and food stuff, saying they are from her mum to the husband and the children.

The husband gently asks her about her mother's health and how she was doing, to which she replies that she took her to the hospital in the village and she is recovering and getting better.

The wife adds that her mother insisted that she must re-visit the village in a few days, to spend at least a week with her.

"I'm worried about Mama" the wife crooned, with tears swelling in her eyes. "She'll be fine, dear." Hubby lovingly replied.

The husband then politely asks her to take the items to the kitchen. As she enters, she meets her mother preparing food in the kitchen. Apparently, her mum came visiting since the Friday that she left home.

You can imagine the plight of this woman. Stuck, shocked, dazed and dumbfounded at the kitchen door! Whether to go in and drop the items 'from mama', or return to her hubby in the living room!

How wouldyou handle this case? Your humble opinion is required.

Drop your comment.

Exonerated Angola prisoner dies after nearly 30 years in solitary confinement


LagosgistA man who was exonerated after spending nearly 30 years on death row in Louisiana died just over a year after his release. Glenn Ford died Monday June 29th after a battle with lung cancer. He was 65. Ford was convicted of first-degree murder in 1984 but was exonerated in March 2014. Ford would have still been on death row if not for a confidential informant who told police in 2013 that someone else confessed to him about the murder that Ford was accused of committing. Lawyer and friend William Most told ABC News Ford was diagnosed with stage 3 lung cancer several months after being released from the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola. Most said that it quickly progressed to stage 4 and spread to his bones. "He was a really inspirational person and ... I'd even heard that he inspired people that had no connection to him," Most said. Ford was featured on ABC News’ ”Nightline” in April and agreed to meet with the prosecutor who put him behind bars, who wrote an open apology letter after Ford was exonerated. But Ford said at the time that he was unable to forgive him. When he left prison in 2014, Most said Ford, then 64, only had $20 to his name. He had been living in a home provided by Resurrection after Exoneration, a group dedicated to helping prison exonerees. Ford was involved in three lawsuits at the time of his death, two federal suits for which Most was representing him and one state suit. The federal suits were for compensation for his wrongful imprisonment and inadequate health treatment, and the state suit was a separate compensation suit. Though he never married, the suit will continue and his children could stand to benefit from any rewards from the court, Most said. Ford had several children, many of whom live in California, and more than 10 grandchildren at the time of his death. Most said Ford was able to visit California since being released from prison and one of his sons came to Louisiana to see him before he died. Though they were located in the same prison and overlapped by several decades, Ford was not a member of the Angola Three, a group of three prisoners who were put in solitary confinement ranging from 29 to 43 years. Ford spent 29 years, three months and five days in solitary confinement in the prison, Most said in a news release confirming Ford's death ABC News
