It’s election weekend and for all intents and purposes, tomorrow hopefully marks a semi-new beginning for Nigeria. However, for this to happen we all have to troop out en-mass to vote and ensure we exert the change we all clamour for. The entire country is set to be on lockdown, hence, our primary destination would be to the polling units near us.

In case you’re up for a stylish moment this weekend, we…

Tobi Bakre; the ex-Big Brother contestant – the one who constantly got into a quarrelsome spar with the controversial Ceec – was trending.

I will make a suitable partner for him.” So the LORD God formed out of the ground various wild animals and various birds of the air, and he brought them to the man to see what he would call them; whatever the man called each of them would be its name. The man gave names to all the cattle, all the birds of the air, and all the wild animals; but none proved to be the suitable partner for the man. So…

The women’s magazines promise sex tips that will keep him coming back for more. The men’s magazines guarantee six-pack abs in just six weeks and surefire techniques for getting commitment-free sex. If these things really were surefire, would they have to publish new techniques every month? But it’s…
