I found myself looking forward to the weekend. I needed the break, really. Ronke was on still my case about my messed up love life. Her words; ‘make a decision and move the heck on.’ If only it were that easy, I wanted to tell her. Abel had been calling me the past three days and I hadn’t picked his call because I didn’t know what to tell him. I wasn’t ready to carry on an undefined relationship especially with him. ‘So when are you coming back?’ Ronke asked, watching me pack. ‘Tomorrow evening, hopefully,’ I said, folding an extra…

HOLY HUMOUR THE CAR A young boy had just got his driving permit. He asked his father, who was a minister, if they could discuss the use of the car. His father took him to his study and said to him, “I’ll make a deal with you. You bring your grades up, study your bible a little and get your hair cut and we’ll talk about it.” 
After about a month the boy came back and again asked his father if they could discuss use of the car. They again went to the father’s study where his father said, “Son,…

It was like seeing Austin had started out my week on a bad note because I couldn’t seem to find any happiness the rest of that week. When I was in the classroom with the kids, I couldn’t concentrate because thoughts of what he could possibly know about Abel kept dancing across my mind. How long had he known? Had it just been the party or was there something more? Perhaps he had suspected something while we were still together… I didn’t know why it mattered to me anymore but somehow I couldn’t help obsessing. Austin had been my everything…

“Rules are made to be broken”, but only guts can. Celebrities are constantly on a row to tow the ‘ideal’ prim, proper and perfect lane, nevertheless, some deviate; creating their own ideals and remaining implacable. We might not all hail their style choices, but we applaud their resilient-rebellion. Denrele. A.k.a mobile drama. Denrele has made a name for himself by staying true to his weird, over-the-top style, and doing so with deaf ears (he ain’t gat time for haters). Besides when your heel-game is as tight as his, your diva level better be reaching for the sky. Di’ja. Reminding us…

The little black dress is a classic wardrobe staple, howbeit, there’s a thin line between getting it right and falling short. There’s a ‘science’ to it; what fits your body type matters. We don’t need to travel to Sokoto for the answers, our celebrities have what we need, let’s learn from them. Toke Makinwa. The petite media personality knows her body well. She stays away from overwhelming outfits but isn’t about that figure-grabbing life either, keeping things well balanced. If you have a similar body type, take a cue from her style book with this A-line LBD. Toolz. The curvilinear…

HOLY HUMOUR GOD WILL SAVE ME. One day there was this preacher and he was having his usual sermon when all of a sudden it started raining, really, really, hard!!!! After about 1 full hour of complete non-stop rain, they started making evacuations because the whole church was flooding, but the preacher just stood there in the ankle-deep water. A guy in a car came up to him and said. “Preacher, Preacher you better get in here before you drown!” But the preacher just replied, “Don’t worry God will save me.” The man then said “Whatever!” and drove away. The…

What is peach, burgundy, and printed all over? It’s this week’s Instagram style looks! And the slaying continues… of course there’s no better place to show off impeccable style than the streets and at Nigerian weddings (Naija we hail thee!). Instinctively, we were drawn to every heterogeneous stylish moment but nothing could prepare us for the awww-worthy picture which, amongst all others, happens to take home the crown this week.    xosotin chelseathông tin chuyển nhượngcâu lạc bộ bóng đá arsenalbóng đá atalantabundesligacầu thủ haalandUEFAevertonxosokeonhacaiketquabongdalichthidau7m.newskqbdtysokeobongdabongdalufutebol ao vivofutemaxmulticanaisonbethttps://bsport.fithttps://onbet88.ooohttps://i9bet.bizhttps://hi88.ooohttps://okvip.athttps://f8bet.athttps://fb88.cashhttps://vn88.cashhttps://shbet.atbóng đá world cupbóng đá inter milantin juventusbenzemala ligaclb leicester cityMUman citymessi lionelsalahnapolineymarpsgronaldoserie atottenhamvalenciaAS…

Make-up has seen its fair share of evolution.  Who needs plastic surgery? Today, make-up-and-over has the ability to make you look like a totally different person, just ask Instagram celebrity makeup artist, Poalo Ballesteros – a bit of contouring here and there, some highlighting, and… voila! Who are you again?. But its transformative abilities, believe it or not, seems to be canker-worming its way through “I do’s” and ‘happily ever after’s’ with men taking drastic solace in the legal system to sue or end their matrimonies to ‘deception’ a.k.a wives. We ventured into the streets of Lagos for some vox pop, to…
