“This is the latest form of police oppression” – Actress, Chinonso Arubayi says as she recounts witnessing a police officer allegedly trying to extort a motorist for splashing water on his uniform

 

Actress, Chinonso Arubayi took to her Instagram page recently to raise an alarm over what she says is the “latest form of police oppression”.

According to her post on her IG stories, the actress claimed she witnessed a police officer try extorting a motorist for splashing water on his uniform.

Criticising the officer’s action, she said the police officer who won’t hold the government responsible for bad roads was trying to extort a driver who was only working to earn a living.

She wrote,

I just witnessed the latest form of Police Oppression. Holding on to a driver’s car keys and taxing him heavily for splashing water on your uniform. You won’t hold yourself accountable for seeing a pot hole and standing by it in the dark. You won’t hold the government accountable for the bad roads. You will rather oppress an innocent driver. Working hard to earn a living in this economy

Olamide gifts his 2.4m wristwatch to a fan for singing his song word for word at a concert

 

Popular Nigerian music star, Olamide Adedeji recently made the night of a concert goer who sang his song word for word at the Goldberg Takeover Party.

The YBNL boss, who was one of the guest artistes at the show, gifted the young man who appears to be a staunch fan his Bay Ice wristwatch said to be worth N2.4 million.

In a video serving rounds online, Olamide paused his performance after spotting the fan singing his lyrics word for word in the audience.

The singer who was impressed by the fan, told him to come on stage to show off his talent and if he is good enough, he might sign him to his record label.

Following the fan’s performance, the iconic rapper gave the fan his Bay Ice wristwatch as a gift and the fan who was blown away knelt down to thank the rapper.

Watch below,

A while ago, Olamide granted the wish of a Twitter user whom he had previously chastised when the latter asked for a car a few months ago.

In January 2022, the fan asked the YBNL Boss to help him with a car to bolster his e-cab hailing business and he also offered to pay Olamide back if he could get the car on hire purchase.

The fan tweeted,

“Baddo I need car for my bolt business oo… even if na HP i go pay back. Make we run biz. Thanks.”.

Olamide saw the tweet and replied, “Money weh you keep for my hand… ori iya e gbaa ile.”

In an updated tweet, the young man revealed that Olamide reached out to him and surprisingly gifted him a car following his post.

Sharing photos of himself in the car, the fan wrote,

“Today am so happy because I be car owner by this post. @Olamide went out of all odds and put smile in my face. You are so special. Plus say na low key you do am. I go post am. I love you more. Thank you Boss @asakemusik manager. YBLN no go fall. Appreciation mo dun pe. Baddo you be Baba. God bless you more.”

“Marriage is a woman’s greatest achievement” – Writer

 

A Nigerian writer has sparked a debate online after he averred that marriage is a woman’s greatest achievement.

The young man made this assertion while urging men not to pursue women for marriage, pointing out that it is a woman’s responsibility.

According to him, a woman should be the one approaching a man for marriage because getting married is her greatest achievement.

He suggested that a woman hasn’t really accomplished anything until she gets married, no matter how great her accomplishments may be.

His stance stirred varying reactions from tweeps on the micro-blogging platform. While some agreed with him, a host of others believe that the narrative has changed.

In his words,

“A woman who wants to marry you should be the one reminding you about wedding/marriage. That’s her greatest achievement. Some of you men are ignorant of this, and na you the marriage dae shack for body”.

His stance stirred varying reactions from tweeps on the micro-blogging platform, while some agreed with him, a host of others that narrative is changing.

A Twitter user @kelseywealthy_ wrote, “Marriage can never be my greatest achievement, speak for the women in your life.”

@jerr_mali, “Not in this era, it isn’t.”

@joel__ek, “Lol….hopefully not for this coming generation….the narrative is changing”.

@ekinadese_, “Marriage is never a achievement lol cos some women don’t even want to be married… next pls”.

@susangold15, “Marriage is a great achievement for a woman   But is for those who want to settle down. But that one no mean say u go suffer with anyone o. If your bf/husband no get money And u go marry am  OYO”.

Woman hospitalised and nearly dies after picking up a dollar bill she found on the ground

 

A woman from Kentucky, United States, Renee Parsons, almost lost her life after picking up a dollar bill she found on the ground over the weekend.

The mum of two took to Facebook to recount the horrid incident that took place on Sunday, July 10, while she and her husband with their two children were heading to a conference in Dallas, Texas.

She said they stopped at a McDonald’s in Bellevue, Tennessee, and while there, she spotted a dollar bill on the ground and decided to pick it up.

Within few minutes, her body went numb and she couldn’t talk, move and could barely breathe after which she lost consciousness.

Describing how she felt, Renee said, “It’s almost like a burning sensation, if you will, that starts here at your shoulders, and then it just goes down because it’s almost like it’s numbing your entire body.”

Her husband, Justin, who was scared of losing his wife sprung into action and drove her to a nearby hospital – St. Thomas Ascension Hospital – where medics quickly administered treatment on her.

She eventually regained consciousness and became well after fours hours and was discharged from the hospital.

Meanwhile, there are conflicting reports as to what led to her condition. While the hospital diagnosed her with accidental drug overdose, some opined that the dollar bill was laced with Fentanyl which caused her to suffer an adverse reaction.

Renee who has used her experience as an example, warned people against picking up stray cash from the ground.

“The [moral], I don’t care if it’s a $20 bill or a $100 bill do not touch it!!!” she warned on Facebook.
