President Buhari receives in audience Former President Goodluck Jonathan in State House on 10th Oct 2019.
As of the time of filling this report, the reason for Jonathan visit to Aso Rock is yet unknown.
Dear average Nigerian married men, hope you learned something from Mike O Edwards of BBN 4?
Infidelity is a choice.
You are responsible for what you do with your penis.
You cheat or misbehave because you want to or you are a dog, not because you can’t control yourself.
Mike lived 99 days with different beautiful ladies of different sizes, complexion, height and shapes.
He saw them in skimpy outfits, shared bathrooms and bedrooms with them, but not for once did we see his boner.
Not for once did he behave inappropriately around any of them.
He respected himself, his wife, his wedding vows and his brand, even though he knows our society would have made excuses for him or forgiven him easily if he had messed around with any of the girls in that house.
Remember this when next you want to make silly excuses for philandering husbands or put the blame on wives of cheating men.
Remember this when next you justify sleeping with the house help, sister inlaw, colleague, neighbour, wife’s best friend or your side chick.
Like or hate Mike, he really set a good standard for married men in that house.
He made a point.
This role similar to that of Tony Blair who on leaving the office as United Kingdom Prime Minister was appointed the Middle East envoy for the United Nations, European Union,United States and Russia.
Goodluck Jonathan would be the first African past Head of State to be assigned such role.
From lecturer to Commissioner, from Commissioner to Deputy Governor, from Deputy Governor to Governor, from Governor to Vice President, from Vice President to Acting President and from Acting President to President. Now, from President to a World Leader!
The reason they stopped teaching history in our schools is firstly because they don’t want you to know that we were once a decent, civilised people and secondly because they don’t want you to know that some of our leaders are genocidal maniacs who have commited mass murder and treason.

Former British Prime Minister, David Cameron, has alleged that ex-President Goodluck Jonathan stopped Britain from rescuing some of the Chibok schoolgirls kidnapped by Boko Haram insurgents.
Cameron disclosed that the then government of Jonathan did not give enough support to Britain during the abduction of 274 schoolgirls from Chibok, Borno State in 2014.
In his memoir, “In For The Record,” the former British Prime Minister said his country’s troops traced the location of some of the victims and offered to help but Jonathan refused, TheCable reports.
He said: “Iraq wasn’t the only place we would need our military to counter this extremist menace. Boko Haram in Nigeria was linked to al-Qaeda, and believed Western education and lifestyles were a sin (the meaning behind its name). It too wanted to institute a caliphate, and like ISIS it would use whatever barbaric means it thought necessary.
“In early 2014, a group of its fighters centered the government secondary school in the village of Chibok, seizing 276 teenage girls. They were taken to camps deep in the forest. The Christians among them were forced to convert to Islam. Many were sold as slaves, entering the same endless violent nightmare the Yazidi women suffered.
“As ‘Bring Back Our Girls’ campaign spread across the world, we embedded a team of military and intelligence experts in Nigeria, and sent spy planes and Tornadoes with thermal imaging to search for the missing girls. And, amazingly, from the skies above a forest three times the size of Wales, we managed to locate some of them.
The former Prime Minister stated that he expected Jonathan to handle the Chibok issue better.
“But Nigeria’s president, Goodluck Jonathan, seemed to be asleep at the wheel. When he eventually made a statement, it was to accuse the campaigners of politicising the tragedy. And absolutely crucially, when we offered to help rescue the girls we had located, he refused.”
What a lie from Cameron. Go and clear your stupid Briexit that you started, enemy of progress. You guys hate GEJ because he did not agree to your stupid believe. God will judge you all.
Here is Dr Adewale Ayuba, the Bonsue Fuji king. This is his first outing at Iperu Remo, on the 26th November 1979. He was then known as Sir Sunny Ayuba & his Ereke Fuji.
“Mr. Johnson” redirects here. For other uses, see Mr. Johnson (disambiguation).
Adewale Ayuba, born on 6 May 1966, commonly known as Mr. Johnson, is a Nigerian singer known for singing Fuji music.
Adewale Ayuba, popularly is known as Ayuba, Mr. Johnson, and the Bonsue-fuji maestro, was born on 6 May 1966 in Ikenne Remo, Ogun State, Nigeria. He grew up as a child singer, and by the age of eight he had started singing at local musical competitions and fiestas in Ikenne. This led to him pursuing music as a career after his secondary school education at Remo Secondary School, Sagamu, Ogun State.
Although he had gained admission to study Architecture at the Ogun State Polytechnic in Abeokuta, his music career took center stage. To carve a niche for himself, he released his first album Ibere (Beginning) at the age of 17 and as a result he rose rapidly in the Fuji music scene. In early 1990, Ayuba signed with Sony Music (Nigerian) to record an album, Bubble, which was released in 1991 and brought Ayuba into international prominence. Bubble marked the first time in history that a Fuji Music album gained widespread recognition, topping music charts for six consecutive months and winning multiple awards at the Nigerian Music Awards (NMA). It also won Ayuba the coveted Artiste of the Year Awards, including the Album of the Year Award, Song of the Year Award, and Best Fuji Album of the Year Award—four in all.[citation needed] With the success of Bubble, Ayuba hit the pinnacle of his career in Nigeria.
Ayuba’s high-tech instrumentation and distinct voice changed the face of Fuji Music. For the first time in History, the Nigerian Elite, who until then had ignored Fuji Music, embraced it. After the success of Bubble, Ayuba released a follow-up album, Mr. Johnson Play For Me (also on the Sony Music Nigeria label), which also became an instant success in 1992. In 1993, Ayuba was signed to Premier Music (Nigeria) before embarking on his first West Africa coast tour, performing in several African countries. The success of this tour led to his first US tour, also in 1993, during which Ayuba performed in over ten states. He also successfully performed at the world-renowned New Orleans Jazz Festival. In addition, he was awarded the Key to the City of Providence, Rhode Island by its mayor after two successful concerts there. His Los Angeles debut was also a success, and C.C. Smith of Los Angeles Weekly Magazine wrote that “Ayuba bases his Fuji on two elemental forces—rhythm, and the human voice—to create compelling, enchanting and powerful sound. Expect frenzied dancing style and colorful costumes, exultant fans and enough talking drums and percussion to remedy even a terminal case of sensory deprivation.”
After his return in 1993, Ayuba released another chart-topping album, Buggle D, on the Premier Music (Nigeria) label. It gained even more recognition than Bubble and won multiple awards at the Fame Music Awards, topping the music chart for several months. In 1994, Ayuba took a bold step with a vision to “[internationalize] Fuji Music” and toured the UK and the US with his band. He recorded while in America in 1995, and he performed at various international concerts including the 1996 Summer State Concerts in New York, the African Mondo Concerts of 1996 and 1997, the New Orleans Jazz Festival of 1997, the 1997 International Festival in Houston, Texas, and the Black Entertainment Television Jazz USA Concert. Ayuba was signed by US-based Q-disc Record Company for a year contract and released Fuji Time on the company’s label in 1996. In 1997, he released Fuji Dub on the Agogo Music Label in London.
We sha9ll be bringing you the concluding part this post soon.
Enrique Uwadiae was a former gang member who turned a pastor after he had close-to-death stabbing experience
Ever since that experience, he has been helping young people get away from a life of crime
As a Nigerian, Enrique Uwadiae, has added to the pool of the nation’s success stories as he was recognised by the London Standard.
He was given the recognition as one of London’s most influential people of 2019 who are 25 years old or below.
It should be noted that Uwadiae was a gang member who turned a new leaf and became a pastor.
His significant decision to leave a life of crime happened after he was stabbed. He now uses his new life to inspire young people and others who want to do away with crime and live a life in full.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has advised Nigerians who were evacuated from South Africa to be ready to go back to the country if a bilateral commission meeting scheduled between President Muhammadu Buhari and South African President , Cyril Ramaphosa yielded a positive outcome .
My own take:
Please don’t go back to South Africa. The same thing will repeat itself again. South Africans are animals, they have no empathy. The Lord will provide for you, even out of nothing, you shall get something.
