When I look back at my life, and all the stuff I did as a carefree, young and restless youth, I can't help but shudder at some of my very bad habits. Yes, I was once short-fused; blowing off at the slightest provocation. It was pitiful. Over time I have managed to rid myself of such sad habits but that can't be said for a lot of men some of who, even late in their lives can't still get over it, thereby losing their cool in their homes. No be small thing sha.

Imagine this! A couple who were photographed having sex on a moving motorbike (is that even possible?) traveling along a public road in India have been caught after a shocked motorist driving behind them took a photo and shared it on Facebook.

The man shared the photo and wrote "Have sex riding a bike ... No one will stop you ... This is Goa ... This broad daylight sex show took place right on the Mandovi bridge on Sunday afternoon. Not a single policeman on the way to stop them. A passer-by happened to click this picture. What do you have to say?"

After the pic went viral, Goa police swung into action and tracked down the couple using their number plate. But I don't even know why they bothered to because when they found the couple, they only fined them 1,000 Rs which is about $15.

'Tie your gele in 2 easy steps', The first ever ready-made pleated gele by Yinka Thomas-Ogboja

For most African women, tying a ‘Gele’ (head tie) is a difficult ordeal, which discourages them from wearing this lovely piece and promoting our rich culture. The CEO of Opeke, Yinka Thomas-Ogboja, happens to be one of many women who used to face this ordeal prior to an event. It was either they couldn’t tie the geles themselves, or dress up took forever because of their struggles with the geles and husbands started to turn red in the face, or they weren’t ready to constantly enrich the pockets of makeup/gele artists (no offense). Some even desired to dress traditional to church or certain functions but the headache of headgears was the beginning of abstinence.

The Ascon Filling Station in Lekki Phase 1 is currently on fire. Men of the fire service are on the scene trying to stop the fire which has spread to the Round-about and the Lekki-Ikoyi bridge. The fire destroyed multiple cars on the road. More photos after the cut...

Breaking news! Germanwing co-pilot deliberately crashed the plane

According to breaking news report, the co-pilot of the doomed Germanwing flight deliberately crashed the plane on March 24th, this is according the chief investigator who just held a press conference explaining what happened. The prosecutor said the Chief pilot asked the co-pilot to take over the controls of the plane so he could go ease himself. While alone, the co-pilot locked the door and deliberately manipulated the flight monitoring controls to accelerate the descent of the flight. He refused to open the door of the cockpit to the pilot when he returned and began knocking frantically on the cockpit door. The co-pilot used a button to cause the plane to lose altitude and crash. He never spoke a word during the last 10mins before the plane crashed and didn't respond to air traffic control.

The prosecutor said there was no indication that the co-pilot was unwell. He has been identified as 28 year old Andreas Lubitz from Germany. He is not known to have any links to terrorism or extremists.

The prosecutor said screams from passengers could be heard on the recording in the final seconds. He said they all knew what was about to happen in the last moments and that all 150 souls died instantly.

Parents of 15 year-old girl Precious Nwaigwe, who was kidnapped in Lagos by some Niger-based kidnappers on Sunday May 25th last year have revealed how a relation of theirs connived with some the kidnappers to kidnap their daughter and sell her to some pimps in Libya.

Speaking with Punch, Blessing Nwaigwe, Precious's mother said the police have arrested a relation of theirs who worked with the kidnappers...

“The person that has just been arrested is one of our relatives. He is my cousin’s child and is currently with SARS. When we got his contact sometime in September last year from the kidnappers, we did not know he was the one because they gave us a different name. So, his family and our family had a meeting and he was invited to the meeting to resolve the issue. It was during the meeting that the police arrested him. The suspect said the girl was no longer with him. He told the police investigators that after he was paid N250,000, he released the girl to another person who took her to Libya.”

Depressed Rob Kardashian reaches out to porn stars & video vixens for online friendship

This is according to a report by Radar Online. Read below...

Rob Kardashian is a recluse in his big sister Khloe's home, shunning friends and family members while he struggles with depression. But RadarOnline can reveal that the failed sock line CEO, 28, is actually socializing with some surprising new pals: voluptuous lingerie models, video vixens and porn stars.

The weight-challenged recluse, who reportedly spends most of his day sleeping at home, also fills the long, lonely hours by reaching out to beautiful women he discovers on social media. “He’s a nice guy. I know a lot of other girls who speak to him as well,” one popular Instagram model, who says Rob first contacted her on Twitter last year, exclusively tells Radar.

The comedian re-posted this pic above on his instagram and wrote a make-sense article. Read below..

"I would have just left this picture to do the talking since they say a picture can tell, but in these days of photoshopping and half processed thoughts, one needs to make it explicitly clear for the import of some messages to sink home. I have said it before, no matter how beautiful a car is on the outside, if the engine don "knock", it's just a beautiful car. Not a functional car. Same way you will meet a girl with all the attributes, but her head no dey house, so when those wire touch. You go hear am. She may be a 38DD, but a DinDinrin in R-E-S-P-E-C-T department. A babe with great figure may not be able to figure out how to manage money. She is only a gimme gimme gimme.

Former Military leader, Gen Ibrahim Babangida has called on pro-Jonathan campaign groups to desist from insulting the military in any of their campaign documentaries. Gen Babangida gave the charge in a statement he signed and released yesterday March 25th. Read statement below...

"In clear attempts to whip up support for President Goodluck Jonathan, certain persons, groups and individuals have embarked on several campaigns of calumny against former military Heads of State and presidents who have had the opportunity to govern this country. Of particular reference is a one-hour documentary aired on Silverbird Television on Tuesday night; 24th March, 2015 that deliberately impugned the integrity of Generals Olusegun Obasanjo, Muhammadu Buhari, my humble self; Ibrahim Babangida, the late Sani Abacha, Abdulsalami Abubakar, and T.Y. Danjuma; all of whom have had the privilege of presiding over the affairs of this great country at various levels.

The Governor of Rivers state, Rotimi Amaechi says First Lady Patience Jonathan is in control of the police in Rivers state and that the police force has been helpless and ineffective in discharging its duties in the state because of this.

Amaechi made the allegation while receiving the special representatives of the UN Secretary-General led by Dr Mohammed Ibn Chambas in his office in Rivers state yesterday March 25th.

“Members of APC have been crying out loud to the country and the world. In Rivers State, the wife of the President, who is from Rivers State has taken over the control of the Police Force. On Tuesday night, the Commissioner of Police attempted to arrest a member of the Rivers State House of Assembly and the reason for doing that is to ensure that APC members don’t come out on election day.

According new reports based on evidence gathered so far by crash investigators, one of the two pilots flying the ill-fated Germanwings flight was locked out of the cockpit before the aircraft crashed into a remote region of the French Alps on Tuesday March 24th. Investigators said evidence taken from the cockpit voice recorder indicated that one pilot desperately tried to smash down the cockpit door after first knocking lightly on the door and not getting an answer.

This indicates that just one of the two pilots on board was flying the plane - and that the second one became panicked after he was unable to get back into the cockpit. Read full story after the cut...

The TV presenter & Tinsel actress shared some powerful words on her instagram page this morning. Just had to share it. Reading things like this from other women make me so happy. Read below..
Tbt. We are often in a hurry to get to where we want to be in life, that we forget what we have endured to get to where we are now. I look back at my journey over the past 3 years and although I am nowhere where I want to be, I am grateful for all I have achieved. I remember when I just moved to Nigeria and was staying with family in ebutu metta, there was a certain man who I had several meetings with to develop a business idea of mine at the time. All was progressing well till he eventually turned the pages and approached me with his desire for me. He changed his rapport and even offered to buy me a flat in banana island so I could be more comfortable and settled.
