My Husband Impregnated His Sister in Our Matrimonial Home – Woman Tells Shocking Story

The woman identified as Mrs Francisca Obeji, has dragged her husband to court.

The 31-year-old businesswoman, dragged her husband before an Igando Customary Court in Lagos on Thursday where she complained bitterly about him.

She said: “My husband, Ezekiel Obeji, impregnated his `sister’ in our matrimonial home.”

According to the News Agency of Nigeria, Obeji told the court that her husband of seven years impregnated a woman he introduced to her as his `sister’.

“My husband, who married me as a virgin, stopped making love to me three-months after our wedding. Four-months into our wedding, he brought a young woman home and introduced her to me as his `sister’.

“He told me that she would be living with us and I accepted, because I didn’t know all his siblings.

“After some months, this his ‘sister’ got pregnant and my husband ran away with her to an unknown destination and sublet our apartment to another tenant without my knowledge.

“I had to vacate the apartment that day as the new tenant moved in immediately my husband absconded. When I heard that my husband did the traditional wedding with his so-called ‘sister,’ I travelled to his hometown to confirm from his parents.

“His parents told me they could only accept a fertile woman as their wife, while they advised me to go and look for another man to marry.

“I do not know where to trace my husband as he had relocated elsewhere from the shop I established for him and had also changed his cell phone numbers,” she said.

Obeji accused and called her husband, who had failed to appear in court after being summoned severally, an ingrate.

“Ezekiel is ungrateful and I now know that he never truly loved me; he was only after my money.

“When he approached me for marriage, he was jobless, but when he pleaded with me to allow him join me in my business, I accepted.

“After our wedding, he took over the business from me,” she said.

She also alleged that her husband turned her into a punching bag, almost beating her to the point of death within the few months of their living together.

She, therefore, pleaded with the court to dissolve the union, saying she was no longer in love and that she would like to move on with her life.

The court president, Mr Adegboyega Omilola, ordered the petitioner to submit an affidavit of service that would enable the court to continue with the matter despite the respondent’s absence.

Omilola, however, adjourned the case to Aug. 30 for further hearing.

Why Dream Team Lost 2-0 to Germany – Former Minister of Sports Opens Up

mikel

Two goals scored, one in each half of the semi final clash match were all the Germans needed to make sure the Nigerian Dream Team did not play in the Rio Olympics football final which means Germany would now play Brazil on Saturday for the gold medal, while Nigeria would battle Honduras for the bronze.

Former Minister of Sports, Bala Ka’oje, said that the country’s poor preparations to the Rio Olympics contributed mainly to the team’s semi-final 0-2 loss to Germany on Wednesday in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

The former minister who said that the over reliance of the sports administrators, especially the football administrators on luck, failed the Dream Team VI at the ongoing Olympics, adding that rather than prepare adequately for competitions, sports administrators, especially those in the football circle, preferred to prepare teams for competition few weeks to major tournaments.

He blamed the present sports administrators for the Dream Team’s semi-finals loss, noting that efforts should be done to ensure the team grabbed the bronze medal at the expense of Honduras.

“I feel so disappointed watching that match; Siasia’s game plan especially his substitutions were wrong. The team lacked coordination at some point and some of the changes made were unnecessary.

“Inadequate preparation is the major factor why the team lost but I didn’t like the way the boys played; if they had adequate preparation, it would have been a different ball game.

“What this means is that we must prepare for competitions at the right time, when others are preparing; one hopes on luck only when he or she has prepared late for something,” Ka’Oje said.

The former minister however, said that all hope was not lost as the team was capable of defeating Honduras in the third place match to claim bronze.

“They have also tried to get to that level considering the poor preparation of the team before the Olympics. So far, we have not gotten any medal in Rio and we are relying so much on the Dream Team to give us a medal.”

“Eclipse Expected In Nigeria On September 1st” – NASRDA.

NASRDA

An annular eclipse that will be visible all over the country with different degrees of totality will occur on Thursday, September 1, the National Space Research and Development Agency (NASRDA) has said.

NASRDA, in a statement yesterday, said the highest degree of obscurity in Nigeria would be in the southern part of the country, particularly in Lagos where it is expected to have 80% obscurity.

In the statement signed by its Head of Media and Corporate Communications Dr Felix Ale, the agency added that the lowest degree of obscurity would be about 45% and this would be observed in the northern part of the country, particularly in Sokoto.

“The annular eclipse will be observed as a partial or near total eclipse across the nation with Abuja, the Federal Capital Territory, expected to be about 60%”, the statement said.

The space agency particularly said the annular eclipse is expected to occur between 7:15am and 10:03am with slight variations in actual timing across the country.

In Lagos, the first contact will occur at about 7:15am while the maximum eclipse will occur around 8:30am and will end by 10:03am, according to NASRDA.

“The eclipse is expected to commence in Abuja around 7:17am, with maximum eclipse to be recorded at about 8:32am and the eclipse will end around 10:00am”, the statement added.

It noted that eclipse is not a spiritual issue but a natural occurrence that can be accurately predicted by science. While appealing to the general public not to panic or adduce any mystical interpretations to this event, the agency advised that nobody should observe the eclipse with naked eyes.

BREAKING: UNAAB Students Vandalize Church And Vehicles During Protest Over Robbery Attack On Their School.

UNAAB

Following a robbery attack on Wednesday night/Thursday morning, where 4 students were robbed including a lady who was allegedly raped and killed, students of the school earlier on Thursday took to protest grounds over the incident.

Vehicular movement along the major road close to their school, Kotopo-Osiele Road, has been blocked as a result. Policemen and operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps deployed to disperse the students, are having a hard time doing so.

Overtime, the students have claimed that there have been reports of robbery attacks on the school but all to no aid from the school’s authorities – this caused them to have the Church where the Chancellor of the school worshiped, vandalized.

The protesting students destroyed the glassed building of the Divine Heights Bible Church and some cars that were in the premises of the Church – they also vandalized a bus along the Abeokuta-Ibadan expressway causing vehicular restraints along the road.

Motives to reach either a student or a school authority has been proved abortive as the school’s main campus has been deserted as at the time of this post.

This Is The Embarrassing Moment High-Ranking Olympic Executive Was Arrested Naked. (Photos)

Pat Hickey arrested

New photos that have surfaced online, shows the quite embarrassing moment a high-ranking Olympic official was apprehended while he was naked in his son’s Rio de Janeiro hotel room.

President of the Olympic Council of Ireland, Pat Hickey, has been charged with selling tickets for prices higher than face value, in a scheme that could have profits of more than $3.1million.

71 year old Hickey is accused of conspiring with some six others to sell the illegal Olympic tickets. He was arrested in a humiliating fashion while at his son’s hotel room in Rio.

Pat Hickey arrested1

He was naked when cops knocked on the door of his son’s room at a luxury hotel in the upscale Barra da Tijuca neighborhood. Hickey’s wife had told cops he had left for Ireland – but they found him in nearby room registered to his son and found him there.

When cops knocked, Hickey poked his head out from behind a door while wearing nothing.

He asked the officers for a minute to put some clothes on — and walked naked into the bathroom, his buttocks exposed to the officers.

He put on a robe and was taken into police custody semi-nude and in disgrace.

Two Prison Officials Reportedly Killed In Abakaliki Prisons During Failed Prison Break Attempt.

prison break

Two prison officials have been this morning killed in Abakaliki prisons, Ebonyi State, after inmates rioted for hours. In the course of the riot some tried to escape but the police foiled their attempts.

Police have cordoned off all roads leading to the facility. Gunshots could be heard intermittently as police battled to recover a firearm allegedly seized from one of the prison officials, a witness said.

It was not immediately clear why the inmates revolted.

A security source said inmates made attempts at escaping after the riot started, and had already broken through a wall when anti-riot policemen arrived and tear gassed them into submission.

The prison is located beside the police headquarters, a proximity that enabled a rapid police police response. Sources say the prison officials were killed by the inmates.

The military commander in the area, and state police commissioner have visited the area and were working to restore normalcy. Police spokesperson, George Okafor, told PREMIUM TIMES the command was working hard to resolve the crisis.

He did not confirm if there were casualties.

“There was an attempted jailbreak and the prisons called in the police. We cordoned off the area and restored nomalcy to the area,” he said. “We will brief you later on the issue once everything have been sorted out.”

“Marriage is Beyond Cooking” – Pastor Chris Ojigbani

Chris-oje

Press release from Pastor Chris Ojigbani’s camp. Read Below:

Recently, there is this controversy going on in the social media that a man shouldn’t marry a woman who doesn’t know how to cook or a woman who doesn’t pray for an hour. So, I deem it necessary to clarify the issue. As the apostle of marriage, it’s my responsibility to clarify the issue to avoid causing more delayed marriage, separation and divorce in the world.

This is the will of God concerning the issue: You must not use cooking as a criterion for choosing your spouse. Though food is important in life, cooking must not be used as a criterion for choosing a spouse. Why? I tell you three reasons.

First, a woman who doesn’t know how to cook can actually learn how to cook. Second, a woman can employ the services of a professional cook. Third, a husband can tolerate if his wife doesn’t cook very well. Tolerance is important in marriage because everybody has weaknesses, both husbands and wives. If a woman doesn’t know how to cook, it should be regarded as a weakness and the husband has to tolerate in order to be happy.

It’s very wrong for a man to divorce his wife because she doesn’t know how to cook. Nobody used cooking as a criterion for choosing a spouse in the Bible. In fact, when Isaac married Rebekah, he didn’t meet her, it was his servant that proposed marriage to Rebekah on behalf of Isaac and paid the bride price even before Isaac set his eyes on Rebekah. So in Christianity, we don’t use cooking as a criterion for choosing a spouse.

It’s also important you note that praying for an hour must not be used as a criterion for choosing a spouse. There is no scripture that says Christians must pray for an hour before they become good Christians. What Jesus Christ asked his disciples was: why couldn’t they watch with Him for an hour.

Watching is different from praying. And when they failed to watch with him for an hour, they didn’t cease to be Christians. Even Peter, who couldn’t watch for an hour became the head of the disciples. If Peter couldn’t watch for an hour and still became the head of the disciples, why should we use praying for an hour as a criterion for choosing a spouse?

Do you know that vain repletion is a sin in Christianity? Jesus Christ said that we should not speak much in prayer.

In Matthew 6:7-8, the Bible says that speaking much in prayer is a sin. If you need something, you should ask your Father what you need. Just go straight to the point – the Bible says that He already knows what you need, even before you ask Him. So, if you are not yet married and you are a man, never you use cooking as a criterion for choosing your spouse. It’s very wrong. God will not be happy with you if you do something like that.

I am speaking to you as the apostle of marriage that God has sent to correct the wrong doctrines of marriage in the world. Get married, not because a woman knows how to cook, but because she is a good woman. If you marry someone that knows how to cook and she is not good, what happens to you? Man shall not live by bread alone.

If you are a married man under the sound of my voice, never you divorce your wife because she doesn’t know how to cook. You can teach her how to cook or you tolerate her. Marriage is about tolerance. And as a husband, it’s important you note that it’s your responsibility to nourish your wife, tolerate her, forgive her, and take good care of her. It’s a job you have to do.

God bless you. I love you! Don’t forget: marriage is beyond cooking; marriage is beyond praying for an hour. Marriage is an old fashioned institution. It’s the oldest institution and must be honored.

American Artistes Are ‘Scared’ To Work With Me – Don Jazzy

don jazzy TI

Micheal Ajereh Collins, Nigerian music producer and artiste better known as Don Jazzy, has said that foreign artistes are scared to make music with him.

He said this while speaking in a recent interview conducted by Boiler room in collaboration with British Council.

“Most of these American artistes would call you, they believe you have something that they like, so they call you to come and try something out”, Don Jazzy said.

“A bunch of people that I have tried to work with or have tried to work with me chicken out at the end of the day because they aren’t really ready for the music change; they want me to tweak it till it gets back to their sound.

“I can give you your sound, but then, you called me for something and then I try to give to my sound and I want you to do your thing on top of it which would give the sound a wider recognition but they say they aren’t ready for this switch drastically. I think they are still scared.”

The 33-year-old Mavin boss said he started paying more attention to music during the Kennis Music era.

“I would say I started listening more during the Kennis music time because after Storm records, then it was a time for Kennis music and they came with Tuface, Remedies and all.

“At that point, I was still in secondary school and I was like “Yo! They were putting a lot of swags into this my work”. So I started taking note of the music and it started shaping me into what I would like to do but then, there was no way for me to do it.”

Don Jazzy also said that Nigerian music is designed to make people happy during their struggles.

“Everyone is struggling; we all have a problem in the country but there are sometimes when we need that peace of mind.

“While some people are consciously trying to make you aware of what is going on in the struggle, there should be other people that would keep you happy when you are going through the struggles and that is where we come in.”

One & Only Nigerian Weightlifter In Rio Says She Won’t Represent Nigeria Again.

Mariam Usman

The one and only weightlifter that represented Nigeria at Rio has revealed she has lost the zeal to represent the country at international events.

Mariam Usman, seen in the photo above, left the shores of Nigeria for Brazil, the Commonwealth medallist in the +75kg in weightlifting knowing fully well that winning a medal at the Rio 2016 Olympics would be a tough call.

She would not pretend to be a magician nor claim perfection where there is none. Usman believes one can only reap where one sows.

She competed in the +75 category, amassed 265 kg and finished 8th in her group. While speaking to reporters at the Games Village in Rio, Usman said:

“It is painful to come to the Olympics and see people who are your contemporaries perform better than you; not because you lack the ability but because you were not prepared like them,” she said,

“For me, it is not just about jumping unto the plane every four years to go to the Olympics. Every athlete you see here wants to step on the podium. If you can’t aim to climb up there, you have no business coming to the Olympics. I can only consider going to another Olympics if things change for the better. But if the statues quo is maintained, I don’t think I will go to another Olympics again.”

She said training for the Rio Olympics was non-existent while her counterparts from other countries who are competing here in Brazil have been training for three to four years.

“Olympic gold medal doesn’t come cheap. It is painful that one has to suffer and when competition comes they expect you to win a medal with your blood. “The people you have to compete with had everything they needed: training grants, competitions and are exposed to the most modern equipment. I had nothing. You don’t expect such people who have invested so much to lose to one who don’t even train adequately.”

The African champion said before the 2012 Olympics, she had better training than she did under the current dispensation.

“Yes, I feel 2012 was better. I had better training and my result was better. This time nothing was done to better one’s performance.”

Woman Sets Guinness World Record With 17-Months-Old Pregnancy.

wang shi

A Chinese woman has reportedly set a Guinness World Record recently with her 17-month-long–and counting–pregnancy.

People’s China Daily reports that the woman, named Wang Shi, became pregnant last February. Her due date was Nov. 15, but the date came and went with Wang’s baby showing no intention of entering the world.

Worried, Wang went to the hospital every seven to 10 days after her due date passed for check-ups. Doctors ruled out a Cesarean in the 14th month of pregnancy because the fetus was still in stage two–not mature enough for the operation.

“Experts say there are women who gave birth after 13 months of pregnancy, but never 17 months. They can’t explain the reason,” said Wang’s husband.

Nevertheless, Wang is now in good physical condition. The baby weighs 3.8 kilograms. She says she will have the C-section by the 18th month
