Great stuff!

3 scorned girlfriends turn up at airport to confront boyfriend after discovering he cheated on them all

20 year old Charlie Fisher (pictured right) who had been cheating with three young women, 17 year old Becky Connery (pictured left), 19 year old Lizzie Leeland-Cunningham (center), and another 20 year old girl who didn't want to be named, was embarrassed at the airport by all three women when he flew home from holiday. According to Becky, when all three of them found out he'd been dating them for more than six months and was cheating on them with the other, they teamed up and decided to teach him a lesson.

The girls stormed the airport as Charlie was returning from a holiday and started shouting 'Liar Liar' at him. 

Becky told how she found out that the man she was in love with was cheating on her - and how she and his other girlfriends decided to have the last laugh.

She told UK Daily Mail:

'I'd known Charlie for three years but started seeing him in March, and early on we had the conversation that we weren't seeing anyone else, that we were exclusive. I was in love with him, and he said he was in love with me, but I had my suspicions from the start.

He was very protective of his phone, he wouldn't let me put pictures of me and him on social networks, he deleted comments I made about us - looking back, he was very shady.'

Becky said she was at Charlie's house the night before he traveled on holiday and saw a message from a girl on his phone saying 'I will meet you later'.

She said it instantly made her suspicious as he'd asked her to go home early that night as he had to finish his packing. 

'Charlie caught me and we had a row - I asked who this girl was and he said she was just a friend.'

After Charlie traveled, Becky found the girl who sent the text on twitter

'I told her we were both seeing the same person and she wasn't surprised - she had been with him since January, and had always had her suspicions'

The two girls then met and discovered there was a third girl, Lizzie Leeland-Cunningham, 19 and made contact with her through Facebook.  

Lizzie had been dating Mr Fisher since meeting him on Facebook in April. She said;

'He was a real charmer and had a real way with words - he knew how to say the right thing at the right time. But what I didn't realise was that when he was going off to see his friend 'Chris', he was actually seeing one of the other girls.  He did it to them, too, saying he was going to see 'Harry' when he was seeing me.

'I suggested as a joke that we should all go to the airport to meet him.  The other two said "Yes, good idea" straightaway, so we met on Saturday morning and went to the airport together.' 

As Mr Fisher came out through customs, all three girls called his name. Becky said: 

'He froze and looked at us.  He said: "Why are you here?  Why would you do this? We were like "Are you joking?"

"I said to him: "I can't believe how you could be like this for seven months."'

Lizzie said: 'He came out of customs and saw all of us and his face just dropped. We said we wanted to talk to him, and he said "Can't I talk to you later?" and we said no, we wanted to talk to him now.

I said to him "Don't you have anything to say to us?"'.

Charlie headed towards the car park with his grandmother, who had come to collect him, but the girls continued to berate him, stopping only to explain what their grievance was to his grandmother.

'She just shrugged and said "OK" when we told her why we were angry', Becky said.

Becky put a picture of the girls at the airport on Twitter, with the caption: 'Just been at the airport to meet my cheating boyfriend...' and was celebrated as a hero by Twitter users, who said: 'This is awesome - you go, girl.' 

Now the girls, who say they're happy to have ousted him from their lives, have forged firm friendships with each other.

'They're great - I'm seeing both of them for nights out soon,' said Becky.  'We can't think what we saw in Charlie in the first place.

'I'm so glad we confronted him - it's not the 16th century any more - girls don't have to put up with this.'

Vice Principal Caught Doing It In His Office with Female Student

The Vice-Principal of a government school, 57-year-old Taiwo Ajayi, has been caught defiling a 12-year-old student of the school. He was caught by one of the staff in the school, Mr Victor Babayemi.

He reported the matter after suspecting the movement of the young girl inside the vice principal’s office.

“The witness became apprehensive when the student, after spending a considerable time in the VP’s office, did not come out. The witness went near the door and discovered it was bolted from behind, she knocked and the movements, sounds and subsequent demeanor of both the suspect and the victim gave them away.”

According to a police statement in Ado Ekiti, Ekiti State, Mr. Ajayi was said to have allegedly committed the offence inside his office at Saint Mary’s Girls Grammar School, Ikole Ekiti.

The state police image maker said investigation revealed that the randy vice-principal had a similar case in the past which was not reported and added that the young girl also admitted that the man had carnal knowledge of her on the table inside his office.

“The report of a medical examination confirmed that the young girls’s hymen is not intact,” the staff who caught them in the act said.

“With the evidence against him, he will soon be arraigned in court for defilement,” according to the police but Mr Ajayi is however denying the allegation. He said "I didn't do anything o!"

Wealthy Businessman Caught Doing It With Female Student

The man is rich, he flaunts he wealth anyhow and young girls with their big eyes can't say 'No' whenever he is in the mood and invites any of the girls in the area for his randy show. But he ran out of luck recently as he was caught live in the act with a secondary school student doing it by his car on a bush part.

The rich man was given the beaten of his life as those who caught him couldn't understand why he should take a girl as young as this into the bush for his greedy "enjoyment" when her mates were in school. Those who know the man say this is not the first time he would be doing such with young girls...

...the guy is just using his money and businessman status to "fire" young girls anyhow. Na wao!

Girl In Trouble: The Rough Guy I Slépt With Knows My Boyfriend

I'm in a very good relationship with a very good, fun, loving man. Let's call him Francis, though that's not his real name. He's 34, I'm 28, we've been together for about 6 months now. Everything is perfect, we are both committed to building a future together. But something happened recently and I'm afraid it's about to cut my joy short.
My bf's elder brother recently had a housewarming party and I attended the party with my man. Only to get there and meet another guy I had been intimate with in the past! His name is Steve. To make matters worse, my boyfriend knows Steve very well and he even introduced me to Steve at the housewarming party as his woman. Turns out Steve is Francis' elder brother's friend!

What happened between me and Steve happened way before I met Francis. It was at a club in Enugu, a one night stand...

I had gone clubbing with girlfriends. At the club I met Steve, he was really nice, he bought me drinks, we had a good time, I got carried away and ended up being drunk and hor-ny in his car. The rest is history.

All I remember is that when I woke up the next day in Steve's house, I was mortified at what I had done. I practically took off and that was the last time I saw or heard from him till that day at the housewarming party.

I'm afraid that my future with Francis is in trouble. This is his brother's close friend. I'm afraid that this guy may talk to someone about that incident and somehow, Francis will get to hear of it too. 

So, I've been very worried. Should let Francis know, no matter how little, that I ever had something to do with Steve or should I just keep quiet?

National Conference Approves Creation Of 18 New States

Many surprises are coming from the National Conference holding in Abuja. The Confab on Thursday took a bold and unprecedented step under a democratic dispensation when it approved 18 requests, in principle, for state creation across the country as a way of meeting the yearnings and aspirations of the people. It has also put to rest decades of agitations by promoters of new states.

The resolution was among others adopted by delegates at plenary while considering the report of the Standing Committee on Political Restructuring and Forms of Government, which was subjected to robust debates.

The approved requests, subject to the amendment of the constitution, were proposed by the committee and they are:

Apa State from the present Benue, Kainji from Niger State, Katagum from Bauchi State, Savannah State from Borno, Amana from Adamawa, Ghari from Kano, Gurara from Kaduna, Etiti State from the South-East zone, Aba from Abia, Adada from Enugu, Njaba/Anim from both Anambra and Imo States, Ogoja from Cross River, Anioma from Delta, Ijebu from Ogun, New Oyo from the present Oyo State and unnamed others.

Henceforth, it has been resolved that state creation should be on the basis of parity between the geo-political zones to ensure equality of zones.

Power Rotation gets legal backing
Meanwhile, delegates have also resolved that henceforth the office of the President of Nigeria shall rotate between the North and South divide and simultaneously revolve among the six geo-political zones of the country.

This resolution applies to the office of the state governors, which shall be rotated among the three senatorial districts of each state while that of the local government chairmen shall be rotated within the local government areas.

The Committee, among others, had examined Nigeria’s attendant political challenges and the need to lay a solid foundation for an all-inclusive and cost-effective system of government which would serve the best interest of Nigeria and Nigerians.

Whenever the President dies in office, is incapacitated, is impeached or resigns, Conference agreed that the Vice President shall take over the position in acting capacity for a period of 90 days during which an election to the office would be conducted in order to allow for each geopolitical zone to run the full course of the constitutionally allowed tenure without undue disruption.

Delegates also agreed that based on the adopted zoning formula, whenever a president leaves under any of the circumstances mentioned above, another president would be elected from the same zone where the previous one came from.

Conference also voted in support of the recommended Modified Presidential System of Government, which is seen as home-made model of government that combines the attributes of Parliamentary and Presidential systems.

New Presidential powers
A President elected under this new system shall exercise full responsibility for his government and shall select not more than 18 ministers from the six geo-political zones of the country.

It was agreed that henceforth, the Minister of Finance and no longer the President as presently obtained, would present the annual budget estimates to the National Assembly.

Conference also voted to retain the existing bicameral legislature instead of the unicameral proposed by the committee.

Referendum coming
As the conference is about to finish its business in two weeks’ time, delegates have resolved on the need for modalities for the entrenchment of referendum in the Constitution in order to decide the outcome of the confab.

BOKO HARAM STORIES

We are living in desperate times now and it’s becoming clear as the days go by that the PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan’s burning ambition to be re-elected would come at all cost even with the blood of Nigerians. The recent bomb explosion in Ife, Osun state has all but exposed the hands of the PDP and shown that Boko Haram is of three types - There is the religious Boko Haram led by Abubakar Shekau which all know, there is the criminal minded ones and there is the political Boko Haram which in the run-up to the 2015 elections everyone would find out is the militant wing of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In my article some months back on Boko Haram I mentioned the three forms of the terrorist group including the political one. I gave the example of Kano during the 2012 fuel subsidy protest and reminded Nigerians of the church worshippers who were killed according to eyewitness account with semi-automatic rifles, the type issued to government secret service agents, that together with other incidences including the Boko Haram suspects that were arrested in an abandoned Bayelsa state government building in Ijora-Lagos state, plus the bombing in Ife penultimate Tuesday shows for a fact Boko Haram has a political arm used by faces in this present government to terrorise Nigerians.

The PDP has set the stage for its tactics ahead of the elections in 2015 and it is simple - bomb parts of Nigeria and indeed Nigerians and place the blame on the door of the opposition APC. Men like Femi Fani-Kayode are being used to attack them in the press and various online media as sponsors of terror. Isn’t it queer that days after Fani-Kayode accused the APC without proof of having a militant terror wing and an evil character in Musiliu Obanikoro accusing Bola Tinubu and his friends as starting Boko Haram that suddenly Ile-Ife was bombed? Coincidentally, the crown witness in Fani-Kayode’s EFCC corruption case was nowhere to be found when the trial resumed last week, an obvious step towards throwing out the case by the judge for lack of diligent prosecution as scripted by the Presidency and the PDP in exchange for his recruited job of blackmailing the APC and its leaders.

The same Fani-Kayode who has no...

Known Political constituency and has never won an election as a politician is the one castigating the APC and pontificating for the people of the South-West and indeed Nigerians. He defected to the APC and called the PDP all sorts of names but came back to the same PDP and now he is calling the APC all sorts of name too.

A man who called President Barack Obama of the US the Antichrist prior to his re-election in 2012. In a sane and civil society such a man would not be taken seriously and would have been forced to have himself checked to prove his mental sanity but in Nigeria such people bestride our airwaves feeding us with garbage. Obanikoro on his part I wouldn’t blame too much, I lay all the blame on Tinubu’s shoulders. Tinubu it was in 1999 who brought back such dubious anti-democratic element from exile in the US claiming he wanted technocrats and ‘sons of the soil’ in his government.

Tinubu did this against all the advice of Lagosians then who cited how Obanikoro burnt down the ancient landmark City Hall building in Lagos during the Sani Abacha regime when he was the chairman of Lagos Island Local Government and a popular campaigner for Abacha’s life presidency at a time Tinubu was in exile fighting for democracy with NADECO. He didn’t listen and rehabilitated Obanikoro politically, going on to make him a senator in 2003 under the Alliance for Democracy (AD) banner and today his fingers are being burnt with those decisions. Of all the so called technocrats Tinubu brought into government, its ‘non-technocrats’ like Babatunde Fashola and Rauf Aregbesola that are still standing strong by him today. Most of the rest have since bitten the fingers that fed them. I lay the blame on Tinubu for not identifying and even up till now talents amongst the die-hard party supporters who have stood with the party from AD, AC, ACN and now APC and are the foot soldiers who have the grass-root appeal but I believe things are changing now.

An Obanikoro who after leaving the AD for the PDP did not win its governorship primaries in 2007 losing out clearly to Hilda Williams (the widow of the late Funsho Williams) but the ticket was still given to him by Bode George and then PDP chairman Ahmadu Ali. His campaign in 2007 proved to be the most violent in the history of Lagos state perhaps in the entire South-West. Every single campaign he held from Idumota to Ojota to Ikeja, at least five AC supporters and innocent bystanders were killed in hails of bullets. It was the darkest time I ever witnessed in the history of Lagos state not even Abacha’s regime was that terrifying in the state. It was so bad, Lagosians were asking themselves if Obanikoro’s thugs kill everyone, who would be left to vote for him on election day? Not surprisingly he lost the election by a handsome margin. Now, that same terror template is being imported into the West ahead of the elections in Osun state on August 9th and the elections in 2015.

In the lead up to the elections in Osun state, Ile-Ife (where PDP candidate Iyiola Omisore hails from) has been bombed and obviously it would be pinned on APC by the likes of Omisore, Obanikoro and Fani-Kayode. The plan is to get Omisore interacting with the masses eating pop-corn and climbing iron horses (okada) and claiming to the popular with people, then the political Boko Haram, the militant wing of the PDP would be bombing parts of Osun state including Ife and claim its the APC doing it because they are jittery of him winning like Fayose did in Ekiti state and they are trying to stop him campaigning especially in Ife where he hails from.

Its the same template they would use across the whole South-West so as to win sympathy for President Jonathan and claim the APC are the demons who have prevented him from performing and that is where I worry. The real Boko Haram promised to bring their campaign of terror to the South particularly our oil refineries and oil installations in Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta state but definitely not Ife. Everyone remembers Akure prison was attacked by people suspected to be Boko Haram but it was to release their members jailed there, but they have no reason to bomb Ile-Ife. Lagos state naturally is a target for any terror organisation as its the commercial nerve of the country but the state government has done well so far to limit attacks there through prompt intelligence operations and arrest of suspected extremists and aliens including the ones arrested in the Bayelsa state government lodge in Ijora but to bomb Ile-Ife is far-fetched for the real terrorists as it gives them no political mileage. The APC governor in Osun state, Aregbesola, cannot bomb his state as that would be senseless. The bombers were clearly the militant wing of the PDP, the political Boko Haram who would soak the feet of Jonathan in blood so as to get re-elected.

The signs are as clear as daylight, and places where they feel they would struggle for votes like in the South-West would be the epicentre of bombing campaigns. Expect to see their activities increase in Osun state, then they move to Lagos, Ogun and Oyo state with more bombings as all those places are controlled by the APC. On standby would be the likes of Fani-Kayode and Obanikoro to blame it on Tinubu and APC and try to turn the people against him rather than against Jonathan who has shown generally, he does not care about Boko Haram believing they are killing Northerners anyway so its none of his business. 

But for me these terror war has become personal as I have families in Lagos and Ogun, lots of friends in Oyo and Osun state. Its also time Tinubu, APC governors and stalwarts organise a high-powered emergency security meeting (call it the COBRA meeting like the UK Prime Minister chairs when there is clear danger) and face this new threat from the PDP’s Boko Haram militant wing who are hell bent on bombing Yorubas and indeed Nigerians in the South-West to death.

In part two of this article I would highlight why the life of the Ooni of Ife is in danger and he needs urgent security protection before his cousin allegedly kills him and pins it on Boko Haram, APC and Tinubu who was reported to have generally made some remarks against some Obas in the South-West. I would also explain why the lives of Obas in Yorubaland are at risk (Boko Haram has killed and attempted to kill Emirs in the north, so its easy to kill an high profile Oba in the west by PDP’s political Boko Haram and blame it on Tinubu). 

While I would give my recommendations to the APC on what needs to be done urgently before things gets out of hands, also I would give my one pence advice to President Jonathan and hopes he listens, as he has surrounded himself with immature, power hungry and evil men who would assist him in bringing our country to the end.

'It's my first time with two girlfriends, and to be honest it's very difficult because it has to be 100 per cent even. Whatever I do for one I have to do for the other, so it's a fine balance. My mates reckon it's a cool problem to have.'

On how the two séxy sisters are managing to "do things" with just one man in the bedroom, Lucy said:

That is the question they get the most from people who want to know it they get down behind closed doors, saying "Put it this way, we're very active girls and he needs twice the energy."

Funny enough, their boyfriend Ben is also a twin but the sisters want only him to enjoy their things. Lol!

I Don't Miss My Mainland Agberos & Alomo

 I am an Ajebutter. Not by birth, or by formings, or by swag – I am simply an unapologetic Ajebutter by default. I didn’t choose to be born one. God, without seeking my opinion (because He’s God, I guess), gave me the genes of an Ajebutter and a funny Bri-Merican accent . By luck or some twisted work of fate, fortune, Karma (I might have killed ten defenseless puppies in my past life) or destiny, I have found myself in Lagos, crazy Lasgidi, and this is my story…
 

Yes O! I don port o...
Finally I decided to move from the Lagos mainland to the Island, and Jesus, I'm loving it. Having spent over a year in Surulere, and dealing with a number of interesting occurrences and lifestyles, I wish never to return....ever!
To be honest, (before you all begin to think of all the fancy residential spots in your head,), I didn't move to Victoria Island, Lekki Phase 1, or where the old money resides, Ikoyi. Nah, they're way too expensive for me...for now. I moved to a less fancy spot with plenty of water, and a high number of Niger Republicans.
I moved to Ajah! The glorious suburb of Lagos.
I have spent 2 weeks here, battling with my new environs, dealing with the tush neighbours, and getting used to the idea that I never will have to leave home without dipping my fine shoes in some little puddle, or try to dribble my way out of a number of small ponds.
And in 2 weeks, I have discovered the true meaning of life. You see, this life ain't all about the grind, and daily hustle that characterize living on the mainland. It's a bit more than that. A little chill, a little more relaxation, and boom! Life becomes clearer.
For example, I now know how much a bag of cement is worth. On the mainland, I was too busy fighting off Agberos to even remotely consider building my house. But now the world appears free from trouble and pidgin english, so now I must build that house. Gbam!
And also, one other really interesting feature I love about living in Ajah, are the ladies. Of course! The women here are mostly tush. They have a sense of esteem and belonging, and always swing their hips slowly to seducing effect. Yes, I have been looking, and that's only because they wear very strong colognes to always make me notice them. Other than that, I'm a good Christian brother, born, baptized, and bred in the Presbyterian Church of Nigeria. Amen.
But before I go, let me at least spare some kind words to the Lagos mainland. My sweet Lagos Mainland.
'Dear Land Of Agberos,
How are you? I hope you haven't exploded from all that population, hustle, and Agberos?
Well, after one year of scary but interesting romance, I have decided to break up with you. Not because you are bad, or haven't been nice to me, but because all the Agberos in the world originate from you, and I can't speak my English with a confused accent without being threatened by some envious illiterate. Also, Alomo and Agbo aren't my favorite drinks, neither do I love to smoke weed and SK.
But you do love those things, and no matter how much I try to live with it, I have discovered that I can't. It make s life hell for me. Even all your Danfo conductors aren't helping. The other day, one ran away with my N900 balance, the other one stole N40,000 from a passenger, and jumped into the sea. Although he was later caught sha.
Not to say you were really that bad. All the late night roadside noodles and eggs couldn't have been possible without you. Also, I can speak some Yoruba now, and also know the taste of Amala and Ewedu. Thanks. I will look back with fondness on all the good times we shared.
Your Runaway Boyfriend,
Jonathan Joey Akan

I Used My Sister’s JAMB Fee To Record ‘Little Money’—9ice Confesses

Some people are bold enough to take risks that could be deadly or catastrophic in life, but as it is widely said; most risk takers have become successful in life.

The first female winner of MTN Project Fame, Chidinma Ekile, was said to have sacrificed her JAMB examination to be part of the talent hunt show, and at end of the day, she emerged winner and today, she is a successful music star.

The owners of Microsoft, and Facebook dropped out of school to pursue their dreams, and today, they are parts of the richest people in the world.

For Alexandra Abolore Adigun, better known as 9ice, climbing to the top didn't come very easy. He was admitted to study law at the Lagos State University (LASU), Ojo, but dropped out of school to pursue a career in music, which eventually paid off for him.

The singer started attracting the curiosity of music faithfulls in Nigeria with his song; ‘Little Money’ around year 2005, but he said that the song was recorded around 2000. Soon after, he stole the hearts of many music lovers with ‘Ganja’ and by then, he was seen as a good singer with prospects.

Even though his voice sounds like a cracked one, this did not stop him from becoming the darling of many music lovers. Later, 9ice became an A-list artiste with his ‘Gongo Aso’, which ruled the music scene in Africa.

9ice was one of the musicians privileged to perform in London during the 90th birthday celebration of the late South African leader, Nelson Mandela some years ago. The Nigerian singer was reportedly paid heavily for his performance, where he played his ‘Gongo Aso’ hit tune to the delight of the audience.

Speaking recently in a radio interview, which was well monitored by Nigeriafilms.com, the Ogbomosho, Oyo State-born singer disclosed that he once used the money meant to purchase a JAMB form for his sister, who happens to be the last child of the family, for his music career.

“I used the money given to me to purchase a JAMB form for the last child of our family, Atinuke, to record ‘Little Money’. Those days, when you want to get JAMB forms, you go to Ikoyi (Lagos) for it. When I got to the Third Mainland Bridge, at Iyana Oworo end of the bridge, I started contemplating whether to board a bus to Ikoyi or not. After some time, I went to Akoka from there and headed to ID Cabasa’s studio and gave him the N10,000 with me.

“I told him I would use the money to record two songs, but I felt I should do ‘Little Money’ first. I can remember while that song was still on the mix, some friends of Cabasa that came around liked it and asked who did the song. They told Cabasa to quickly finish mixing the song and get it released. Some of them gave me money as a form of encouragement and I was able to get the N10,000 back,” 9ice narrated.

I Don’t Look Good In Corporate Wears–Oritsefemi Confesses

Fast-rising Nigerian music act, Oritsefemi Majemite Ekele, widely known as Oritsefemi has disclosed that he cannot be found wearing any other fashion dress style except the ‘hommies’ styles, stating that jeans and other trendy dresses are fashion accessories he can spend heavily on.

Known to always step out in Tees (T-shirts), jeans, baggy shorts and dark sunshades, the ‘Double Wahala’ crooner, since his debut in the Nigerian music industry, has flaunted hairstyles like dreads and short black mohawks, commonly known amongst Nigerians as ‘Gallas’, is currently trending a blonde look since his ‘buzzing’ comeback to the music scene.

When asked by Sport tales what his new hair-do represents, the ‘Taliban’ master replied that it stands for sexiness, as it makes him look unique.

Fashion, for Oritsefemi, who has tattoos, which can be found on his biceps, neck and two other parts of his body, means everything to him because he is a musician, as according to him, in showbiz, he has to be well presented and acquitted with fashion. He added that one will be addressed the same way is dressed.

But according to him, he claims he doesn’t like the fact that he can’t step out and be himself , citing instances like wearing his ‘own’ pyjamas on him and not getting people complaining about it.

He went on to say that there are a lot of things he craves to do as a normal human and feels right to do, which to him is human rights, and doesn’t see any reason to reduce basically his own rights as a human, just as lots of people have that freedom to go on social media and say whatever they feel like they want to say, but the reverse is the case for him, without him been attacked.

For the celebrity model, gifted singer and Mavin records CEO and Chief, the best idea ever is the ‘lagbaja’ (face-masked). As when he (lagbaja) is wearing his mask, he is lagbaja, and when he is not wearing it, the public eye doesn’t know who he is. Don Jazzy bwent on to laud the Nigerian afro beat musician’s face-masked concept.

Don Jazzy claims he maintains a dual and split personality due to his career, which is Michael Collins for when he isn’t seen around or spotted with a walking stick and Don Jazzy when he is with the stick.

The Nigerian superstar wished he came up with that concept first, as he can’t step outside and do whatever he pleases.
