Move over Nicki Minaj, Nigerian singer Lamili did it first!

Image
Advertorial. Not written by me... A photo of American Rapper Nicki Minaj half naked in a bath tub with milky water has been in circulation recently, however Nigerian singer Lamili seems to wonder if the idea was taken off a scene in her #WannaLoveYou music video released last year and directed by PRODIGY. in Lamili's music video you can see Lamili half naked in a bath tub, you'll agree with me that Nicki Minaj's version is very similar. Well it's not everyday you see foreign artists taking ideas from us. So Big up's to Lamili. Lamili recently won the award for the "Best Contemporary Female Artist" at the just concluded BORA Awards, she also won "Next Rated Female Artist" at the 2014 Scream Awards. Congratulations...

See Photos: Photos:The Italy Bound 'Ghost ship" with 796 migrants abandoned onboard

Image
Herded like cattle into the rusty hull of an ageing merchant vessel, these are the desperate migrants abandoned by people traffickers to drift helplessly at sea. The grainy photo – taken on board freighter Blue Sky M – reveals how 796 migrants including women and children were packed together in squalor on the freezing metal floor. It was taken by a 35-year-old Syrian, who claims he paid almost £11,000 for himself and his pregnant wife to make the journey. And on board a second so-called ghost ship, authorities this week found 359 people shivering and starving who had been crammed into freezing livestock holds on a 50-year-old freighter called Ezadeen. With nowhere to sit or sleep, the migrants were forced to squeeze between metal bars designed to contain cattle and sheep and huddle together in the filthy pens. The passengers, including 54 women – several of whom were pregnant – and 74 children, eight of whom were unaccompanied, endured a mis...

Image

UK Govt have yawared lol. See what they are proposing for toddlers

Image
How weird is this? Nursery staff and childminders have been given 'duty' by the UK government to report toddlers they suspect of being at risk of becoming terrorists under new Home Office measures. They will now start spying and labeling toddlers from black and ethnic minorities. From  Telegraph UK Nursery school staff and registered childminders must report toddlers at risk of becoming terrorists, under counter-terrorism measures proposed by the Government. The directive is contained in a 39-page consultation document issued by the Home Office in a bid to bolster its Prevent anti-terrorism plan. Critics said the idea was “unworkable” and “heavy-handed”, and accused the Government of treating teachers and carers as “spies”. The document accompanies the Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill, currently before parliament. It identifies nurseries and early years childcare providers, along with schools and universities, as having a duty “...

When I heard IK mention Idris name as winner, I thought he was joking- BBA Tayo

Image
Nigeria's rep at the just concluded Big Brother Africa, Tayo Faniran says he was shocked and thought the shows host, IK Osakioduwa was pulling a fast one on him when he heard his fellow competitor, Idris announced as the winner of the reality show "You see, when we were all in school, we all knew who the best students in the class were, and when someone who was the best student scored 70, we would say, haba, this person should score like 90.  Idris himself knows I won, but he only got the money.
