Opeyemi Aiyeola Advises Couples On Child Training

Nollywood Yoruba actress, Opeyemi Aiyeola-Owolomonse, has turned a preacher of love. The mother of two boys, who lives in the United Kingdom with her family, took to Instagram to preach against domestic violence and the need to raise godly children.

She said, "LOVE urself n others. Isn't it so weird and very discouraging, the level and extent which domestic violence and abuse have gone up in recent times? Rape, child abuse, physical n emotional abuse, unlawful killing, to say the least? In a society where obviously challenges abound here and there...bad as it may seem! I have the strong belief and conviction that an average mind can still smile again! Instead of seeing it from the pessimistic point of view, why can't we be hopeful of a better tomorrow??? why can’t we live a peaceful, united life, where we will love and care for one another? 

"

Where the interest of your neighbour should and would be our priority. It is often said, that the future of tomorrow starts with building a strong successful society, and how do we do that? It is simply by training up the child in the best way to go, its about catering for the safety, interest and welfare of the African child. Much concentrtion should be accorded towards building a good home, because a good home gives birth to a good society...remember? charity begins at home...Stop Domestic violence? let's live a peaceful life? Be at peace with urself and above all LOVE  urself so u can LOVE others and respect the human race. I Opeyemi Aiyeola Owolomonse LOVE myself n U. Happy new month in advance.” (sic)

Dethroned Nollywood Queen, Adaeze Cries Out, "Organiser Wanted Us To Sell Our Bodies To Politicians"

Dethroned Miss Nollywood, Queen Grace Okoro Adaeze, has revealed how the organiser of beauty pageants employ them as sex agents to politicians and other rich Nigerians in a bid to make money. She disclosed this and more in a written statement.
The queen was dethroned last weekend by organiser of the Nollywood Beauty pageant by what was described as her ‘arrogant behaviour” in an official press release.
But she responded to all the allegations in a press statement exposing how the organiser had not only defrauded her but asked to sleep with him coupled with threats of dethronement if she disagreed.
She stated: “I called the contact phone number which was on the advert page for the Miss Nollywood 2015/2016 after filling the online form and making the bank registration payment. Mr. Barakumo Odede who picked the call asked me to order for tickets which I will sell like other contestants which is a criteria to be a potential winner of the pageant.
“I then sold tickets worth #40,000 which I gave to Mr. Barakumo. One night during camping, Mr. Barakumo told us all that he will interview us but it will be privately done in his room. We went in one after the other. I went in when it was my turn and Mr. Barakumo was behaving very funny that made me very uncomfortable in that room. Amongst other things, he asked me if I had a boyfriend, and I said yes, and he said that Queens don’t have boyfriends but rich men pays for it. I left the room angrily and upset, I later found out that he asked other contestants for sex too during the one-on-one interview sessions.
“On one fateful night again, Mr. Bara sent me a text to meet him at the corridor, which I did. But he was not there, then I called him and he asked me to open the next room’s door, when I did, I saw him sitting on a chair with a worried look.  ‘Boss, are you OK?’ I asked him and he replied ‘Yes, but I am tired and I need lovemaking from you’.
“I reminded him of my boyfriend. This word got him angry and he then told me that other contestants were begging for it while he is giving it to me for free and I’m rejecting his offer. He pulled off his clothes and tried to get me down then I slapped him, struggled to get away from him and ran to my room immediately.
“He later sent me a text that he was sorry that he didn’t know what came over him and pleaded that I shouldn’t tell anyone about it.
“On the grand finale, 27th December, 2015 after we have been declared winners, we were surprised to learn that crowns were borrowed from Miss Bayelsa pageant to crown us and immediately after our group photographs, the crowns were returned back to the organizers of the Miss Bayelsa pageant whose pageant was being held same day at a different venue.
“All the regional Queens were not crowned as a result of this. We were given just flowers and sashes. There was no rules, there was no contract agreement for us to sign, no constitution was read to us, no certificate was given neither did we see the 1million naira star prize for the winners as promised by Bara as he is popularly called.
The next day he told us to dress very good…he introduced us to a man who we later found out was a politician. That was when it dawned on us that Bara is up to something different.
“The next morning, Mr. Bara asked for N5, 000.00, I told him that I don’t have any cash on me so he begged and took my ATM card to withdraw the money. I was so shocked to receive an alert an N45, 000.00 debits out of the N50, 000.00 that was in the account. He withdrew all my money, the cash that I saved for my school fees and left just N5, 000.00. When I confronted him, he pleaded that the organization will pay me back the money later and that the hotel management had asked us to leave because he couldn’t pay the complete deposit for our accommodation and that I shouldn’t sell the company’s secret out.

“I have always carried him along in all I do yet he keeps pestering me for money and recharge cards. I called when I wanted to unveil my pet project (the Hope Support Initiative Foundation) and he…pledged to donate N700, 000.00 (it is on the video tape) Bara asked me to date him I refused.
“The day I asked him of my certificate as (Miss Nollywood Culture and Tourism) Mr. Barakumo got so furious and threatened to dethrone me if I ever ask for the certificate again. That was when I knew he was up to something sinister.
“Mr. Robynz…approached Mr. Bara and advised to settle all these issues that are responsible for the beef he is having with his queens, from the certificate to the N1million prize, Mr. Bara took it as an unfriendly gesture. Mr. Barakumo told him that it was the duty of our boyfriends or sugar daddies to buy the cars for us then he will claim that he gave us the cars after branding them, saying that this is how it is done.
“I now understood why he told us in camp never to have boyfriends but rather should date men whom he believes can get us the cars. So, we should go out and sell our bodies for money and that the organization has nothing to give us and that he has given us a platform for us to sell our selves.
“The last straw that broke the camel’s back was when I was invited for a children’s day party by the wife of KOLGA chairman and I sent Bara a text to inform him…but he didn’t reply. Then surprisingly, on the 25th night he sent me a text message asking me to suspend my trip to Bayelsa…he said that I’m making the money and sharing it with Mr. Robynz and that he will make sure he disgrace and dethrone me if I dare him and that I want to do what the immediate past Miss Nollywood Nigeria 2014(Queen Gwen) did and that he won’t let it happen again.
“I went to Bayelsa on Thursday 26th May, 2016…for a courtesy visit to the General Manager of Niger Delta Television. Immediately Mr. Barakumo saw the interview on the news he became furious and told me that I want to become popular and famous like the immediate past Miss Nollywood Nigeria and that I am rude consequently, he will dethrone me.
“Mr. Bara was more furious after he saw my post about the success story of the Children’s Day celebration at KOLGA, Bayelsa State. That’s how he concluded to fabricate all the lies he published and that he has dethroned me. He immediately sent me all the links and blog addresses that he published it.”

Housewives Cry Out To Single Girls, "Leave Our Husbands Alone"

Maryam is confused on the next step to take. As a matter of fact, her 10-year-old marriage is being challenged by what she describes as ‘satanic invasion’. She says,“My husband has always been a faithful partner and most of my friends envy me. I thought all was well with my marriage until I started seeing some strange text messages on his phone. Apart from that, he could come back very late and tender flimsy excuses. Even making some calls whenever I was present is becoming uncomfortable for him. I tactically asked his driver and I got the shock of my life—my husband is seeing another woman! After making inquiries, I realised that this other woman is not only a widow; she is old enough to be his mother. Where on earth did he meet her? What would he enjoy from that old hag? Though he is still the perfect husband and father at home, I am scared that he could be bewitched and start behaving otherwise. What do I do to stop that woman? I don’t want my husband to know about my discovery because it could lead to a quarrel and nobody would believe my story because he is a quiet person and I am an extrovert.”

Temi, 30, is also in same shoes: She recalls, “My husband receives thousands of text messages that could make him a billionaire if converted to cash,” she reveals. According to the mother of three, her husband, Bernard, is seeing many women and exposing her to danger. “Now, I have had to treat thrush, a disease I never had when I was single, for about three times in five months! Whenever I asked him if he was seeing other women, his reply was: ‘they are my clients and please don’t act funny.’ When I could not stand the ‘thrush’ episode any longer, I told him point blank that I contracted it from him and he innocently said that it could be from my office toilet because there are many young women there.My problem is how to catch him in the act because he looks and acts as if I am the nagging wife. Recently I flipped through his handset and saw a strange text message. I quickly copied the number and called whoever owned it. Before she could say ‘hello’, I warned her against seeing my husband and even threatened to kill her if she proves stubborn. Well, I thought I had scored a point and on my way to taking back my husband by force. The next two hours after the call was horrible for me because my husband drove back home, asked why I embarrassed his client and threatened to leave the house if he loses that contact. According to him, she was the one helping their company in getting juicy contracts in Abuja. I am so confused. I ended up apologising to him but I know that he is unfaithful.”

For Nike, the road to marital fulfillment is to ‘get greedy girls’ out of her husband’s path. “They flock around him just because he is an artiste. Initially, I was not bothered because I met him in the business. But after getting married three years ago, I felt really uncomfortable especially when one of them would call him and engage him in ‘midnight calls’. Whenever I woke up to get to the toilet, he would be on the phone. Five days ago, I snatched the phone from him and shouted: ‘leave my husband alone’ to whoever engaged him endlessly. Do you know what my husband said? He said he was talking with his business partner abroad, who was about coming to Nigeria for a big film production. Could that be true? I am fed up because any move I take to curb him from been flirtatious is viewed as ‘jealous, malicious and overbearing’. What do I do before my home breaks down?”

Comment

Some of these ‘outside’ women could be so daring, dangerous and desperate, when your husband is within ‘your grip’ what with your behaivour and patience at home; they end up with their missions unaccomplished.
