The Fixer

I used to believe life should always be about what is right and wrong, what is obtainable and what is not, I have been dating this girl for over 4 years now ( I know what you would say so feel free to say it), we have loved each other althrough the  period and neither of us cheated until one cursed Sunday I woke up at my friends apartment from Saturday's hangover and he has left for work since he happens to be on duty that day, I was in his shower when I had the doorbell, wrapped in a towel I made for the door to see who it was, completely elusive that I was not in my house, I opened the door and it was his neighbour, she was suppose to drop her own share of the maintainance fee for the buildings water system, and thought my friend was around only too meet a stranger wrapped in only a towel, I collected the money from her and she left back to her apartment.
Few hours later I heard the doorbell ring again and I went to see who was at the door, it was she again, the neighbour only this time she was pleading for my assistance, saying her pressing iron just stoped working due to an  electrical spark at the socket, that she needed my assistance in checking it out, after my hesitation I finally agreed to take a look at it.
The room was spacious and had an abience of that of a motel. While in the process of figuring out what went wrong with the socket in her apartment she asked me to excuse her to the rest room, only a couple of minutes later she walked in with her briefs, acting very casual like she has no idea of the message she was sending.
I fixed the sockets and opted to leave, which she objected and insisted i stay a while while she offers me refreshment as her way of appreciation. Leaving for her room while I was waiting suddenly I heard her call out my name seeking for help and I immediately dashed into her bedroom in response, behold before my eyes was a nude lady standing behind the door being shut as I entered the room....

Nigeria Health Minister confirms Ebola death in Port Harcourt

Nigeria has confirmed its first Ebola death outside Lagos – a doctor in the oil hub of Port Harcourt.

Nigeria’s Health minister Onyebuchi Chukwu said the Port Harcourt doctor had died on 22 August, but the results of the tests have only just been made public.

The doctor, who secretly treated a diplomat who had contact with the index case, Liberian-American Patrick Sawyer, has died of Ebola in Nigeria.

His wife has also taken ill and has been quarantined in Port Harcourt. Interestingly, the diplomat the doctor treated is still alive.

The diplomat, who was part of the team who met with Patrick Sawyer in Lagos, flew to Port Harcourt, Rivers State for treatment, evading Nigerian federal government surveillance for the disease. The late doctor then took him to a hotel for treatment.

As a result of this, 70 people have been quarantined. The doctor's hospital, Good Heart Hospital in G.R.A Port Harcourt, has been shut down. The unnamed hotel, where the secret treatment took place, has also been shut down.

The Minister of Health and the Rivers State government are expected to make a statement on the incident tomorrow. 

Charly Boy Gives Lessons on Marriage

Son of late Justice Chukwudifu Oputa, Charles, better addressed as Charly Boy, says marriage is not all about finding someone who matches up with on all the cards but someone that does not want to blow out that little light inside his/her partner.

According to the ‘Area Fada’, as he is also known as, he grew up seeing his parents love each other dearly, but does not get carried away because they argue and quarrel as if they couldn’t stand each other.

The singer stressed that though marriage is full of various challenges, but he never realized that he had been with someone from another background, home training and different ideology for 36 years.

He explained that his three failed marriages happened because he wasn’t psychologically and mentally prepared for the messes and challenges associated with marriage.

Charly Boy also revealed that he has been married to his wife, Lady Diane for years and the seeming success of the union maybe as a result of his experience from other broken marriages.

The Area Fada advised that for there to be a sustainable union, it is important that couple listen to each other in a way that the partner can’t possibly doubt their love for them.

“It was when I realized that love was forbearance that I had a successful marriage. Both parties have to know and have that. You bear and you keep bearing and you keep bearing. To be a bearer you must be a forgiver, sometimes no apologies rendered. Oooops! Yeah, that’s marriage,” he advised

Withces are people i the church and they control governance.... Withces Leader

Forum, the umbrella body of all Binis in the country and Diaspora, Chief David Edebiri, the Esogban of Benin Kingdom in Edo State, says unknown to many, witches run government and once they make decision, it is binding all over without the people knowing how.

The Bini chief, who recalled that witches were very vicious before now in the kingdom, said a traditional parliamentary action was endorsed by “our great, great grandfathers” to put together a group, which he (Edebiri) is presently the leader, to tame their excesses.

Speaking on being a departmental head of witches, the chief cleared the air that he was not a witch but rendering service to humanity.

“You should know that the head of the Federal Ministry of Health is not necessarily a doctor. I do not need to be a member, if I was a member, I will not be able to do what I am doing now. Secondly, their grade is too junior, if I were to be a member I cannot be in their grade. This thing has grade,” he stated.

Chief David Edebiri further disclosed that witches do not succeed where the name of Jesus Christ is being mentioned, adding that these people (witches) are either church singers or one thing in the church.

“But I can tell that so many of them have been converted to Christianity after passing through this place. The elders, who made this possible were very wise people, otherwise, what we should have been seeing today is burning and killing people, who are witches and that would have brought the society to another catastrophe,” he revealed.

AY: I spent all my savings on my first show

Ayo Makun, popularly known as AY, is one of Nigeria’s respected comedians. He has won the hearts of so many fans across Africa. His comedy and music show, known as AYLive, which is an annual event, has become a permanent feature at every Easter celebration in the country. AY once worked with Ali Baba, who is regarded as the king of comedy. He gained experience from Ali Baba’s Comedy Club and garnered more experience from Opa William’s Thousand Laughs and Made in Warri. He tells why this year’s show is tagged ‘Happiness Edition’, about the movie‘30 days in Atlanta’ and his new club

What makes this year’s Easter show unique from the past editions?

Ay Live has a seasonal trademark that comes with different tonic in terms of quality contents. We are also very cautious of the fact that it is a show that cuts across all age and creed.  Lovers of the brand should be expecting a double portion of the level of entertainment that was witnessed last year.

AY show is ranked as one the biggest comedy shows in the country. What would you say is the reason for this?

  The major reason cannot be taken away from the special grace of God, which the AY brand enjoys. More so, paying solid attention to the entertainment yearnings of Nigerians, with the mindset of delivering the best contents would always give birth to such ratings, as one of the best in the country.

Why is this year’s edition called Happiness edition? Why did you choose those you are featuring this year?

For years, we have been soliciting for corporate sponsorship for AY Live until Maltina came along. So, there is no better way to express how happy we are with the involvement of Maltina. Incidentally, both brands are known for sharing happiness, hence we came up with The Happiness Edition. We chose the line-up of artistes performing on our April 20 (Easter Sunday Show), simply because they all have the very best of entertainment that they can share to create happiness.

What is the biggest risk you have taken in your life?
