Sometimes, little things get overlooked; no one pays admirative attention to the house fly, except of course you aim to kill it. Most times, while admiring a well-suited man, we do so down to his spiffy shoes, and even though monitoring spirits could go as far as noticing the expensive looking wrist watch, attention is seldom paid to cufflinks… why? Well, that might just be a question for the gods, however we know that cufflinks say a lot about a man. Here’s what we think… Yarn Cufflinks These are the most affordable cufflinks you can get. To the ladies, this…

It’s no news that the world of Nigerian fashion is blazing, and has us thinking… Versace and the likes surely have to be a bit worried, no? Our fashion industry is definitely growing steadily but surely. Design brand, Tzar Studios, known for their unique, eclectic interpretation of fashion gave us a peek into their SS16 collection and our attention kept returning to the models feet – they definitely didn’t have on your regular Joe-slides. And yes, we love them! Love it or hate it, we think your feet would love these!xosotin chelseathông tin chuyển nhượngcâu lạc bộ bóng đá arsenalbóng…

Okay, maybe the headline is a bit too dramatic. Once regular folks evolve into celebrities, they lose every iota of privacy. Constancy in the public eye comes with the con of being judged by every Tom, Dick and Harry. However, some celebrities have mastered the art of staying under the radar undetected (Lagbaja comes to mind), while others learn to just take the bullets as the come (dear Toke Makinwa we salute your bravado). But the fact is, a celebrity tag isn’t needed for people to whip out their claws to scratch. And, no thanks to the online community growing…

My Dear Son, As is my tradition with you, when I come across some literature that I consider will be useful to you on your earthly journey, I share it with you. Here below is one I came across recently: An American man walked into a restaurant in London. As soon as he entered, he noticed an African man sitting in the corner. So he walked over to the counter, removed his wallet and shouted, “Waiter! I am buying food for everyone in this restaurant, except that black African guy over there!” So the waiter collected the money from the…

It plagues other West African countries as well. The overall case-fatality rate…

Over the past week we have been treated to some intriguing encounters and plenty of goals in the English Premier League. Arsenal and Liverpool gave us a repeat of the rollercoaster entertainment that Manchester United and Newcastle presented the previous night but it was the encounter in West London between Chelsea and Everton which brought us the best and worst of the Week. The match brought two halves totally unrecognizable from each other. The first half was cagy and tight with both teams looking desperate to make the game a reflection of their dire league forms. Guus Hiddink’s decision to…

Let’s face it, not every girl is girly. Not every girl wants to look like a princess. Sometimes she just wants to roll like a dude, existing only in baggy clothing. If you’re this girl, this is for you. Being tomboy doesn’t mean rocking a ‘feminine’ piece, like a skirt, should be a style-taboo. Fashion is about making clothes work to your advantage, so let’s help you place the ‘girly’ into your ‘laddish’ lifestyle effortlessly. Here’s how… The A-line denim skirt Good thing this 70’s trend is back. Moving away from the butt-showing-dirty-days, the denim skirt has evolved sanctimoniously, that…

HOLY HUMOUR YOU LOOK DVINE …BUT The Catholic Church requires women to wear a head covering in order to enter the sanctuary. One Sunday a lady arrived without her head covering. The priest informs her that she cannot enter without it. A few moments later, the lady re-appears wearing her blouse tied to her head. The shocked priest says, “Madam, I cannot allow you to enter this holy place without your wearing a blouse.” “But Father, I have a divine right,” she informs. “Yes, I see. And your left one isn’t bad either, but you still must wear a blouse…

A while back, Nigerian senator, Ben Murray Bruce, blocked a twitter follower for hurling insults at him – I guess the African father in him couldn’t take it anymore. Not long ago, an image of Tiwa Savage looking unlike her usual self flooded the internet; from blog sphere to social media street, and the comments were nothing short of… murderous. It has regrettably become a spontaneous activity for random folks to sit behind their computers and smart phones, making hurtful comments. While we can’t sensor everyone, we can learn to deal with it like a boss with these tips. Never…

The name of the rat that harbours the virus that causes Lassa fever is called Multimammate rat (because it has many nipples like all these local street dogs after delivery). While the botanical name is Mastomys Natalensis. Because there is an upsurge of the disease in many states of the (Nigerian) Federation, it is pertinent that we follow these rules. Practice good hand washing hygiene. All apple lovers should wash them with salt and warm water before refrigerating them to eat. People ought to also avoid testing of dry Garri by chewing them for starch in the market. Also, Garri…
