Some of us have the notion that when a man and a woman get together, it is usually the woman who may have cajoled the man into the marriage. But that is not always true, men are real people with their own needs and emotions - and often they are the ones who seek and find the woman after their heart. However, it is not often that we get a candid insight from a man who is married or about to get married.
Of course, people have different reasons they get married ranging from security and wealth to physical looks. Most often, we cover everything under the blanket of love.

Aluu4 movie in the making!

11:37 AM Add Comment
There's an Aluu4 movie in the making and it's being produced by Simony Productions,the Idumota marketers that brought you Blackberry Babes.

The movie will be titled Aluu4. I kinda have my reservations about this movie...mostly because it's being produced by Idumota Marketers who only care about making money and not necessarily as a tribute to the memory of the young men who lost their lives on October 5th. And I'm almost sure no one from the production team contacted the family members of the murdered boys, or even visited the Omoikiri community in Aluu where these killings occurred...and they probably didn't interview anyone directly involved in the case, including the police, to get an insight to what really happened that Friday morning.

Quite a story......enjoy reading...!
I currently live in the UK and I am married to the most loving guy that I can ever think of, trust me I have been around so I know the attribute of the word "most loving guy" though all is not perfect at the moment but the dilemma now is that I am stuck between my mother, myself, my husband and our four months old baby and I really think I have made a very serious mistake courtesy of mother and all her advice.
I have known my husband for close to 12 years and of which have been married now for 2yrs. Unknowingly to my husband I had a baby for my secondary school love just after I finish my SS3 exams in Nigeria, and with the help of my mother we were able hide this from everyone apart from my immediate family because my then boyfriend denied the pregnancy and my mother did not want word to get out the her most precious teenage child has become pregnant.
To cut the long story short, I gave birth to my first baby girl in a very small town in one of my mothers numerous friend's village, and my mother flew me abroad shortly after, and my baby was given to an Orphanage home near Port Harcourt run by again one of my mother numerous friends.

Mobile Phone Internet Data Bundle & Subscription Codes For MTN, Glo, Airtel, Etisalat

8:47 AM Add Comment



This is list of all mobile internet data bundle or data plans & subscription codes for MTN, Glo, Airtel and Etisalat (All Networks in Nigeria). These mobile data plans are specifically made for internet connection on Phones, Smartphones and Tablets but you can as well use them on your Laptop PC, Notebooks, Macbook and Desktops. Look through the list to find out the mobile data bundle that fits your budget and time schedule. Enjoy reading.
My Take on All These Networks Regarding Data Plans:
If you subscribe to any of the MTN mobile data plans, I would warn you to be careful and wary of their tricks. You should always make sure you don’t have extra credit on your SIM after you have subscribed, this is because MTN will not alert you when you exhaust the allocated MB and they will allow you to continue surfing the internet until you exhaust your credit. They will not even alert you, you will just get to know when you can no longer connect to the internet. SEE MORE AFTER CUT>>>

50 Cent Agrees To Fight Floyd Mayweather On December 14 in A Boxing Ring

5:03 AM Add Comment
Friends for years and almost business partners 50 Cent and Floyd Mayweather engaged in a very public twitter feud a few days ago. The insults got personal on both ends, leaving fans wondering if the two could ever reconcile.Well, if boxing lovers Alki David & Damon Feldman have anything to say, The Duo could actually take their twitter beef  into the ring. David and Feldman are partners and owners of Celebrity Boxing Offerings, and they have proposed that 50 and Pretty Boy Floyd solve their issues in a 3 round, 2 minute each boxing match in Vegas on December 14.

Neither party has accepted nor declined the offer, so the decisions could go either way.
After surviving 9 shots, I guess Mayweather’s fists can’t scare 50 Cent. He tweeted some pretty harsh words directed at his former buddy Floyd Mayweather not too long ago. 50 made it pretty clear that for the right price – $5 Million, to be exact – he’ll step in the ring with the undefeated Mayweather.

 This is just the latest in the deterioration of their friendship/business partnership. 50 cent made sure to stipulate that December 14th is too soon, but he seems pretty confident in his ability.
“I’ll fight Him dec 14th is too soon. I would need time to get in shape. I’m 204 right now I hit that boy he will see a white light.” — 50cent (@50cent) November 9, 2012
