Money Can't Buy You Love| Euromillion Lottery Win Tears Couple Apart


Money can't buy you love..This saying makes so much sense as British couples David and Angela Dawes have reportedly ended their two-year marriage because of rows on how to spend their Euro million lottery win.

According to Mailone

David and Angela Dawes won a EuroMillions jackpot worth £101million two years ago. But according to members of their family, they are currently living apart – with relatives blaming the split on rows over how to spend the windfall.

Mr Dawes, a former taxi driver is thought to be staying in West London, where he owns a £3.5million flat close to his beloved football team, Chelsea FC.

Mrs Dawes, a former charity worker, is still living in the couple’s luxury home – where she yesterday refused to confirm the split, saying: ‘I don’t know what I am meant to have done, I don’t know why I am in the paper.’

Gov. Chime Ejects Wife From Government House


Governor Sullivan Chime has finally evicted his official wife from the government house in Enugu after several days of wrangling.  The first lady of state was packed up and moved with her 4-year old son to her mother’s house in Enugu. Security agents were posted outside the house for several hours to ensure she did not return to the government house.

Mrs. Chime described how her marriage to the governor had broken down, with four years passing without any intimacy between them.

She said she continued to stay in the government house hoping that the governor might change his ways after receiving treatment for cancer in the United Kingdom; she also charged that several members of her family would not allow her to leave the governor because they were benefiting from the governor directly.

Gov. Sullivan Chime Attempts To Eject Wife From State House


Governor Sullivan Chime of Enugu State attempted to eject his wife, Clara Chime, from her State House quarters over her decision to go public about his illegal detention of her.

In effect, Mrs. Chime would have regained the freedom she has been denied for months, and for which she has campaigned publicly in the past week.

The governor’s action followed a marathon meeting the governor held with Clara’s Igwe family, during which the governor decided to let her leave the government house.

However, insiders say Mrs. Chime said she would prefer to travel out, preferably to the United Kingdom, to take care of herself and then be allowed to return to her matrimonial home upon completion of her trip.

Sources at the meeting said the governor turned down that offer, instead telling the First Lady to pack out immediately.

N225 Million Car Scandal: 'Stella Oduah Is A Serial Liar' - House Of Rep Committee On Aviation

 
 

The House of Representatives Committee on Aviation has concluded that Mrs. Stella Oduah, the Minister, is a serial liar.

In a report on its investigation obtained by SaharaReporters, the committee dismissed every single claim the Minister made during her testimony to the committee earlier in the week concerning the purchase of two bulletproof cars for her by the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA).

It stressed there was no appropriation for the purchase of the two armoured cars, and stressed that the NCAA proposal for the purchase of the two MBW armoured cars was rejected.

“There was no provision for armoured vehicle in Nigerian law for a minister in any event, any procurement for an armoured vehicle must be provided for in the appropriation act and backed by relevant approval,” the report said.

Who Says You Ain't Pretty...Don't Lose That Confidence


A Teenage girl complained to her grandma at the dinning table. She said: grandma, I'm not pretty, I don't have nice clothes like my friends in school and her grandma said "child, clothes don't make you pretty, they make you BROKE!". Now we live in a world where the minds of the young and innocent(females in particular) are being manipulated to believe in an ILLUSION....a world where TV is REALITY and FACT a FICTION.

The quest to want to really "BELONG" becomes the "real hunger" in the life of a young growing female; and I ask myself, who took away her self-confidence, who taught her the act of inferiority complex and who said she needed artificial eyelashes,expensive designer shoes and a hair extension of 150thousand naira just to look good, huh??!

"Order The Release Of Mrs. Clara Chime From Unlawful Detention By Her Husband Or Be Dragged To Court" - Femi Falana Tells IGP


Lagos lawyer and human rights activist Femi Falana has petitioned the Inspector-General of Police Mohammed Abubakar to order the immediate release of Mrs. Clara Chime, the First Lady of Enugu State from unlawful detention by her husband and disciplne the police and state security officers who colluded with the governor to perpetrate the cruel act.

Mrs Chime, Falana said, is being detained illegally in Government House, Enugu by Governor Sullivan Chime. And failure to order her release would compel the law to take its course with the IGP dragged to court. 

In the letter dated, November 1, 2013, published exclusively by SaharaReporters, Falana said Mrs. Chime is his client who has been kept in custody and not allowed to see or speak with anyone for the past four months on the orders of the governor.
SaharaReporters on October 28, also published exclusively a letter by Mrs. Chime in which she appealed to human rights organisations to come to her rescue because Governor Chime had placed her under house arrest.

MARRIAGE TIPS: The Choice Of A Bride


 The choice of a bride is a serious business. Thus picking the right wife is of utmost importance. With the rising trend in marriage crisis, one has got to be critical in his choice of a bride as there have been numerous cases of infant marriage crashes. Truly the foundation of such a union is built basically on “LUST”.

The choice of a bride goes beyond her beauty, sexual prowess, etc. Too many unions based on the foundation of lust for beauty, lust for sexual prowess and the likes have gone down the drain. It is just too sad that men continue to fall for these mistakes.

In choosing your bride, it is pertinent to understand that the union is a lifelong commitment and requires a great deal of forethought. Marriage is not just about love and bonding with your soul-mate.

Is He The Marrying Type?


Fred and Cindy enjoyed a rosy relationship for 8 good years. Their relationship began way down their university days. They were head over heels each other and everyone thought it was till eternity.
They both graduated and not even the mandatory One Year NYSC could separate them as they both served their Fatherland in different zones. Fred was posted to the North while Cindy served in one of the secondary school in Ondo state.
These lovebirds were inseparable, the cohesion was just so strong that they became the envy of all as they go to events in matching outfits. Fred and Cindy  brought families together and they were both at liberty to visit themselves without any hassle from their parents.

…cut long story short, Fred got employed in One of the International Oil Companies and once upon a rosy relationship began to hit the rock….too bad
All effort to put Fred to other was futile…yea the money was there…there existed a difference in class as Fred got himself hob-nobbing with the Oil moguls…and he felt his 8 years old “boo of life” as he professed back then was no longer a fit for him….LEVELS DON CHANGE…..

Why He Is Not Ready To Get Married


I have noticed this myself and have heard the sad tales of young single women from all sorts of backgrounds and theological persuasions. I have witnessed the self-indulgent lifestyles of guys who like women and seem to like babies well enough, as long as they belong to someone else. I have watched normal, rational moms turn into Mrs. Okonkwo overnight, sharing their frustrations with the lack of suitable men for their daughters who are prepared for and longing for marriage and children.

It seems to me that there are plenty of things that could cause a young man to be anxious about pleasing a wife, causing him to delay marriage. Below are just some thoughts whirling around my head why men find it difficult to marry.

A DEBT THAT MUST BE PAID


Specimen A: In the year 1861, civil war broke out in the country we all know today as the United States of America. The war originated from the attempted secession of the Southerners from the Union, a move which the Northerners perceived as a violation of the essence of the American republic and so, rejected. Ergo, war broke out between the Southern states which had formed themselves into the Confederate States of America and the Northern states which were called the Union. By the year 1865 when the war ended, casualties numbered over half a million on both sides.

Fast-forward to the year 1900, thirty-five years later, the United States had established itself as the world’s foremost industrial nation. Overall, the nation experienced a stunning explosion in the scale of industry and in the pace of production.

Specimen B: May 30, 1967, civil war broke out in the country we all know today as Nigeria. The war was fuelled by the attempt of the South-easterners to secede from the country Nigeria. The move was condemned by the Nigerian government as injurious to the country’s oneness and a catalyst for an extensive disintegration of the nascent republic. Ergo, war broke out between the South-easterners who called themselves the Republic of Biafra and the Nigerian government. By 1970 when the war ended, casualties numbered well over two million on both sides.
