''I am not happy because you guys are frustrating my life because I am getting depressed already. I thought I have moved on and everybody has moved on. I have not been getting jobs, I am getting broke. You know as a public figure you have to have money to take care of some personal expenses. Right now I don't have any money. Now, if people book me for a job, the company or brand would see Godwin Maduagu and they would say no, we can't use this boy. How do you guys want me to feel? How do you expect me to feed or survive? You guys said I made a video to trend. Now who is now trending and who is now losing? How do you expect me to make a video that will destroy my life and everything. You guys should just pity me now, Please. I am not happy. I want to get my life back. I need money. Right now I feel like I am going to commit suicide because I can't take this anymore. It is really depressing and it is affecting me psychologically. ''

Read the story below ''A Christian brother travelled to the UK, he disembarked from the plane to discover his international passport with 5 years visa had been stolen or missing. He complained to the officials, they tried everything they could for him. The document was not found. He was returned to Nigeria. People started shouting “Village people”. About six pastors and even the ones he knew in the UK before traveling to Nigeria all saw the hand of the enemy. This brother started moving from one pastor to the other seeking a solution to the “village people” after him. His younger sister brought him to one of our programmes He told me everything I asked him if he was a born again Christian He said yes What do you do in the UK He said he was a barber and he had a thriving practice Where do you live? He mentioned the location, he said he was sharing Accommodation with about 20 other people They all troop out to work during the day and come in late at night to sleep and troop out again Some of the guys living with him are into drug, some into fraud et. I started laughing I asked him if he had called any of those guys since he got deported He said no I asked why? He said he didn’t want everybody to know he was in a jam I said please call one of them This was in 2018 June! He had been in the UK since 1998 and only came to Nigeria in 2018 to celebrate his mother’s 70th Birthday. He placed the call, the Person that picked filled him in about a police raid that happened in their house three days after the day he was supposed to have returned to the UK The police and other agencies went to raid their house in the middle of the night and everyone was in jail. The brother couldn’t Close his mouth He was just stammering Many so called pastors are wired to pronounce negative stuff and project fear and evil If indeed God is your father, he could subject you to a minor inconvenience in order to preserve you from a huge mess! The brother’s passport was found and mailed to him in Nigeria by an air hostess He eventually married the lady last year and they are both living in the USA now. None of those “village people announcers” saw that coming! When you’re in Christ, you either walk in the light or you walk in denial of the light!''

Gay Nigerian teenager gets a new home after being rejected by family
FlyJ posted a topic in Latest News and Gist
Bright, who comes from Benin City, Nigeria, struggled with depression and eventually became homeless when his parents threw him out following a blackmail experience with the Nigeria police. In early May 2020, the 19-year old was lured and arrested by police officers in Benin City, who had used other previously arrested young gay men as bait to entrap their friends. “I just walked into their trap. I did not do anything. I only wanted to meet up with one of my friends after he called me that he needed me to come to help him pick up something for another friend of ours. It was there that two police officers grabbed my trousers and asked for my name. The moment I accepted, I was arrested,” Bright said. Members of the Nigerian queer community have identified many locations in Benin City and other cities as notorious hot spots for police harassment and anti-gay blackmail. It’s not a crime simply to be gay in Nigeria — only specific sexual acts are criminalized in the country’s various Criminal Code, Penal Code, and shariah law codes. Nevertheless, police often work with individuals to lure gay men to locations where they arrest them. After Bright was arrested, his family paid about N80,000 (approximately $210 USD) for his bail, he said. But when he returned home, he received a shock. His family had “called and reported the issue to everyone including our pastor. I was then asked to leave the house that I brought shame to the family. My dad said he was never going to have a gay son,” Bright said. Bright said he was homeless for over a month until a friend took him in. However, the friend was also living with his family, and they did not approve. It was then that he reached out to NoStringsNG, which provided transportation for him to move to Port Harcourt, Nigeria, where he was provided shelter at a safe house run by a trans group. However, Bright was only able to stay there temporarily. In June last year, through support provided by NoStringsNG with help from the Saint Paul’s Foundation for International Reconciliation, Bright was able to rent a new place to stay with a friend. He was also able to use his computer skills to secure a job to support himself. “I know I feel lonely and depressed sometimes, but I am truly happy to have found a place to stay. I have some peace now and can sleep well at least at night. I appreciate the support and I am glad,” Bright said. Source- 1 reply

Well... This is a sort of a funny story. For one, I don't buy things off the street when I'm in transit. Never liked it. I look at it from a security risk perspective. Moving on... So the other day, these guy kept stalking me with plantain chips and then winking as part of his attempt at getting me to buy. Lol. Then I lost it. Lool. Well... I started frowning. That was my response back to him. ...then of course, after driving some few hundreds of meters and tracing back what really about the situation got me upset, I realized that I had sort of convinced myself that the only reason why he persisted was because I was female along with the stereotype associated with women, eating and impulsive buying. Lool. One of these days, I'll start up a list of items you can buy while on the road. It is amazing. God bless their hustle... ✊🏾

Hey Girls, It's been a tad quiet in here. How are you all doing really? Psychologically, physically, emotionally etc... With all that is happening in Nigeria, I'm hoping you are able to find a safe space for yourself to recharge and heal on a daily basis? With COVID lingering on, I hope you are still able to stay connected with those who truly matter. Get in here, let's chat it out ☻

...and guess what I found

The last few days have made me question whether or not creaming up to get a lighter tone comes down to preference or to esteem issues. I'm sure everyone who has made an effort to get lighter has voted for it being their preference but... if one digs further to the root cause and discovers the why behind the preference, one quickly realizes the depth and layers of interwoven issues that point to a certain dissatisfaction with one's own self image. Who decides for you what beautiful ought to look like? #Foodforthought 📿

No one kmows what it holds but everyone can hope and dream and you know what? Dreams do come true. Just a few hours more and it is here. I'll be here somewhere but for now, happy clock watching. Lol 📿🥂

Hello Ladies, Do you do this thing where you go on a shopping spree towards the tail end of the year? So that you hit the new year with a big bang? Well.... just asking ☻

Hello ladies, I do hope that you have at the very least gone for the biometrics before now. I was practically devastated when I punched in the USSD code only to get a mesage back that my data wasn't on the database. Lol. I was weak. Lol. I imagined having to be at the NIMC enrolment centre for 7am on Monday. I imagined having to go through the horror of queing up and being in the same space with hundreds of others trying to get theirs as well. I had planned that I'll be there for Monday and to keep going back till I got it sorted. As a matter of fact, I was determined to get it out of the way before the end of the week. *Drum roll* lool. Then I spoke to someone who made me realize that as long as I have my slip even though I haven't completed the process or even gotten a card, then my NIN would be on that slip! Eureka! Lol That was indeed a beautiful truth. I had gone for capturing in 2015 but never bothered to complete the process. Don't ask me why. Don't judge. Lol. So, yes. I have the NIN. Thankfully. I do hope that I haven't spoken too soon. Lol. The dreaded queues. If you haven't gotten the NIN, sort it out sooner rather than later alright? Cheers to you all 🥂

ONE statistic that has surprised many Australians in the same-sex marriage vote is that New South Wales had the most marginal Yes vote of any state. Just 57.8 per cent (2,374,362 people) voted Yes, with a significant 42.2 per cent (1,736,838 people) voting No. Every other state was above 60 per cent Yes, with the Australian Capital Territory top at 74 per cent, and Victoria close behind, on 64.9 per cent. The ACT has a small voting population, with 175,459 ticking Yes and 61,520 No, but you might have expected NSW and Victoria to be comparably progressive. In fact, NSW’s metropolitan electorates were some of the highest Yes voting seats in the country, with Sydney tying with Melbourne for the nation’s most strongly in favour, at 83.7 per cent. Even rural seats in western NSW were relatively strongly skewed to Yes. It was seats in south-west Sydney, many of which have large socially conservative immigrant populations, that were most likely to vote No. Out of 150 Federal Electoral Divisions, 133 recorded a majority Yes response, and just 17 divisions recorded a majority No response.

I'm some 40 minutes early but what does it matter. Lol. Christmas isn't much about what is happening around us. The Christmas feeling lies within our hearts. As you all celebrate with loved ones, think not just of yourselves but of how we can collectively make Nigeria great again! Hahahahaha. I honestly hadn't planned the words in bold but it does look good on white. From the chapel with love, Ho Ho Ho to one and to all.... 📿

Hello Ladies... So the Christmas is finally upon us. In a few days it would be Christmas and I'm not sure about you but I'm looking forward to it. The season gets more expensive each year. Lol with new additions to the family and growing tastes of my lovely high maintenance nephews. Lol. Just wanted to spread some cheer but more importantly, I wanted to remind you all to stay safe. COVID is lurking around, you better watch out; 'cause I'm telling you now... Lol. You wanna know how serious it is? Well... this time of year, I'm typically attending a musical when I'm in town but not this time around. Wisdom is profitable to direct. It doesn't make any sense to risk it. I tell you what, if I can prioritize my health and safety over a BAP musical, then anyone can. Lol. From me, Compliments of the Season to you all 📿

It's that week of the year! The traffic this time of year is usually epic and I'm sort of preparing myself for the week. Although some say the traffic has been terrible for a while now. There's just this build-up up until the 24th thereabouts before Lagos gets quiet. I'm not sure if people would be travelling this time around. It has been a perculiar year. So brace yourselves and check your google maps before you dare embark on any journey this week. Lol.
-
I must be the last person standing who is yet to conclude her Christmas gifts shopping. Tomorrow is another day. Lol. Funny how I prioritized shopping for myself instead. Lol. I've been such a wonderful gift to all around me all year. If it comes to it I'll tie a red bow on my self and sashay away. Hahahahahahaha

A 45-year-old businessman, Garbar Pakachi, on Thursday approached a Nyanya Customary Court, Abuja, to dissolve his 22-year marriage over his wife’s inability to cook on a daily basis. Pakachi in his divorce petition alleged that since he married Martha Ahmed, he has never known peace. “Since I got married to my wife, we have never had peace in our marriage; she has the habit of disobeying me. “Worst of all, is that she cooks only once a week,” he said. The petitioner also said that the wife hardly spends time at home with the family. “She returns late at night from her business, sometimes she does not return at all till the following day,” he said Other allegations were that the wife attended night clubs without his permission. “One night around 3:30am, I went to my wife’s room and discovered that she left our last child all alone in the room, and she was nowhere to be found. “Immediately I called her phone to know her whereabouts; to my greatest surprise she told me that she was in a night club, and she did not return until 4:00am,” he said. He told the court that all efforts he had made over the years to correct his wife’s behaviour proved abortive, and that he was tired of the marriage. The petitioner begged the court to dissolve the marriage and give him custody of the four children of the marriage. The respondent, Martha Ahmed, a businesswoman who was present in court, also said she was tired of the marriage. She begged the court to give her custody of the last child of the marriage. The judge, Jemilu Jega, admonished the couple, adding that 22 years of marriage was not a joke. “Twenty years of marriage is not a joke; you should not allow this problem to destroy what you have built in the past 22 years.’’ He advised the couple to reconcile and adjourned the case until Nov. 21 for judgement.

Hello Ladies. I wonder if you girls are back to attending Sunday services or you've gotten used to streaming services online. The thought underlying this topic pretty much just dropped in my mind and while it is something we probably all know, I thought to share all the same. Lol. The law of averages hold very true. YOU are the average of the people you surround yourself with. What I have realized is that there is a lot happening out there. There are tons of opportunities one can leverage amd there is free help out there in terms of financing etc. You just need to know where to look or who to ask. You just need to have a network of serious minded indivduals whose collective network you can tap into. It is of no use being a champion of mediocres or being the smartest in your circle because, if you aren't constantly challenging yourself then soon enough, you too will be left behind. Why not take stock of your friendship list and see what is missing? Is your team solid or do you girls just sit around and talk about TV shows, food, girls, sex and social media gist. Remember, there is a world of young people in Nigeria breaking barriers and doing remarkable things. Who says that can't be you? Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are! 📿
