"Don't Sell Yourself Short Just Because Of A Ring."- Benita Okojie and Adeyeye Aderonke.

Gospel singer, Benita Okojie, advises young
singles ladies against bowing to the
pressures of marriage in message she shared
on her Instagram page:

Dear Sister, I know that now that you’re done with school and have
a steady job. The most asked question from parents,relatives and
even friends is “When are you getting married?” For our parents;
they want to carry their grand child. Our siblings; they can’t wait
to be called Uncle and Aunty Our Neighbours and Relatives; can’t
wait to see little junior running round the house. They have every
right to want this as much as we all do but everything will happen
in God’s time. The pressure is real and so many people who
married because of pressure will tell you that you shouldn’t make
that decision just because there’s pressure to. Don’t sell your self
short just because of a ring and change in Status! There’s a
blessing in Waiting. Waiting for God’s Time. While you wait. Don’t
sit at home. Meet people, Share your values, Interests and faith as
you prayerfully trust God to bring you the Mr Right. The greatest
tragedy in life is to marry someone else’s Rib because your destinies
are intertwined. May You find your own Rib! #InJesusName

My Opinion
I have been saying this and I will say it one million times, the "wrongest" reason for a woman to marry is pressure. Don't be pressurized to get yoked to someone who is not yours.

If you mistakenly get married to someone you are not compatible with, even the Bible said "The end of the man is word than his beginning" This time its the lady's end that will be worse than her beginning.


The world is not ending now, even if it is nko. Must you rush into a man's arms to fulfill all righteousness? Most of you don't understand love not to talk of marriage. But because your friends are
getting married, you feel left out. You feel you have not achieved anything.

My dear, how many lives have you impacted. How many lives have you given meaning to? How many faces have you put a smile on?
If its none, then you have no business getting married.

"Any Office Holder Coming Into Office To Loot Money is Mad" - VP Osinbajo

Vice President President Yemi Osinbajo says that it is madness for people in positions like President Buhari and himself to come into office and look for money to loot. A statement by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Laolu Akande , quotes Osinbajo as saying this while receiving a delegation of Christian Ministers Welfare Initiative also known as the Pastors ’ Forum , Taraba State , at the Presidential Villa , Abuja yesterday. “ This morning, I had a meeting with the President and he repeated to me twice, he said ‘ at my age , there is only one thing I am looking for , I want to see a great Nigeria . ’ He has no other objective and I feel very inspired by that . It is madness for anybody in our position to be looking for money. According to him , God put people in a position of authority for them to be able to do something for their people. I think if any Nigerian gets the chance to be President of the country , there is nothing he / she is looking for anymor...

THE WILDFLOWER MOVIE REVIEW.

  Think of The Wait and how it made you feel. How it brought things you have ever seen, heard of or experienced right to you, that is exactly how you would feel with this movie.  This is a movie that is a must watch if you are a mother, an elder sister, if you are connected to a female one way or the other, this movie is for you. Trust Aunty Biodun Stephen to always give you real life and realistic themes and plots. Hence the plot of this movie is so close to home that I could remember some scenarios. But the movie was dragged at so many points. If you are looking for a movie that would kick you in the punch at once, this is not that movie. This is the movie that you have take your time to go through the prolonged actions and scenes, which was caused by some actors, who unfortunately were key players. Anyway, overall, I'd give it an 8/10. Plot is cool. Directing is cool. Delivery wasn't perfect for a lot to cast, even the top ones. Everyone was just at their relaxed mood, whic...

King Of Swazi chooses Wife, Publicly Test Girls' Virginity As They Dance Naked. (Photos)

A common tradition in Swaziland (Swazi) permits the King, Mswati, to choose a new bride every year. This is done in a festival named Swazi Reed Dance Festival where girls are paraded and tested publicly to know their virginity status. It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...
