Court dissolves 35-year-old marriage over sex starvation

A Mushin Customary Court, Lagos, on Thursday dissolved a 35-year-old marriage between Paul Odunbaku and his wife Titilayo over sex starvation and emotional abuse.

 
Odunbaku, 63, an engineer, had urged the court to dissolve his marriage to Titilayo, for alleged sex starving and emotional abuse.

The court President, Mrs Rukayat Wushishi, in her judgment, dissolved the marriage and admonished them to maintain peace.

Wushishi appealed to the petitioner to continue to play his fatherly role to his six children, five of whom, were married.

Odunbaku, had told the court that the marriage had been devoid of love for the past 21 years.
According to him, Titilayo, a school teacher, has starved him of sex for the past 21 years. The petitioner, who lives at No. 11, Balogun Street, Ladipo, Mushin, said the marriage was contracted in 1979.
“My wife has starved me of sex for over 21 years and has tried to pour acid on me. She did not stop at that, Titilayo also on one occasion threatened to stab me with a knife.
“My wife is very abusive and uses different offensive words on me whenever we have a misunderstanding and she also throws various dangerous objects at me,” he said.

Titilayo, who urged the court to dissolve the marriage, said she was no longer interested in the relationship.

According to her, several attempts have been made by ministers of their church to settle their differences but it has yielded no result.

Titilayo told the court that she started denying her husband of sex following more pregnancies after six children.

She said that she had to abort several pregnancies because they could not afford to have more children.

Lady: 5 Funny Things Men Do Before A Date That You Don’t Know (Must Read)

Sometimes, men try to always pass this message of them being in control at all times to ladies but male ego hide so many things we do that only if the ladies knew…they would chuckle within them.

 

Picture a lady going on a date probably for the first time with a man that she truly likes; deep within there are so many unsolved puzzles that goes through her mind. Funny enough, the lady isn’t the only one that’s facing this reality check (unknown to her).

Men also do some funny things before such a date— join me smile through this as I reveal some of the things men also face before such a special date.

1. PONDER ON WHAT TO WEAR

If you think only ladies ponder on what to wear before a date then you might be mistaken; every man wants the lady he likes to find him attractive as well, so he ponders on what to wear for quite a while before going for his best option.

2. STARE AT THE MIRROR

Ladies, if you think the mirror is meant for just you then you might actually be deluded—you need to see the man going on a date with a lady he likes, he stares at himself in a mirror just to be sure he’s looking perfect. It’s funny that men castigate women for time spent in front of a mirror, but we also do this too on special occasions.

3. WONDER IF SHE WOULD FIND HIM ATTRACTIVE

Ladies aren’t the only one caught up on whether the man would find them attractive; I’m not even sure who do this more because men are also caught up in this scenario. Would she like me? Would she see me as the perfect gentleman? Would she think I’m unattractive? Questions like these also run through a man’s mind.

4. THE RIGHT LINES TO SAY

This is where the man’s job becomes even more difficult; ladies expect the man to have the right words to say and the right conversations to start up; this would even add more tension to the way the man feels. So before he goes to meet her, his mind is already bundled with what do I say? How do I make her smile? What are the best things to discuss and the best lines to use? How can I tease her? Etc…...

5. PRACTICE THINGS

When he knows it’s a lady he actually likes, consciously or unconsciously a man sees himself practicing so many weird things like even how to give a cute smile, how to walk confidently and even the right way to talk.

Being a man isn’t an easy job after all. So ladies, when next you’re preparing for that date with a man that you really like (and he likes you too), you should know that you aren’t the only one caught up in so many weird and funny things. Women also make men do funny things.

Sad Story: How a 22 Year Old Nigerian Died in Police Custody in United States

Two Sheriff’s deputies in Savannah, Georgia have been placed on administrative leave with pay for “inappropriate actions” due to the death of 22-year-old Nigerian student, Matthew Ajibade, who died in their custody.

According to Source, Ajibade who suffered from bipolar disorder, died in the isolation cell of a Savannah county jail.

He had been arrested for battery after the police were called over a domestic incident.

Local news reports state that it was Ajibade’s girlfriend who called the police, and when they arrived; she told them he needed to go to the hospital. However, a preliminary incident report on the arrest states that neither Ajibade nor his girlfriend requested to be taken to the hospital.

When officers arrived at the scene, Ajibade was said to be standing with his girlfriend, and holding her tightly. They both had a blanket over their heads.

The girlfriend subsequently removed the blanket when authorities arrived, and when she did so, her face appeared to be bruised and her nose was bleeding, police allege.

The police report also states that when an officer tried to pull them apart, Ajibade “started to resist apprehension in a violent manner, and was taken to the ground, so that he could be handcuffed.”

 Ajibade’s girlfriend reportedly informed police of his medical condition, handing them a bottle labeled Divalproex, that contained pills. The drug is usually used to treat certain types of bipolar disorder or seizures.

             The two deputies placed on leave – Cpl. Maxine Evans and Cpl. Jason Kenny

Authorities said he was placed in an isolation cell because “he became combative with deputies while being booked and his behavior was deemed dangerous.”

Ajibade eventually died in the cell.

His family is demanding answers, and insists that he should have been taken to the hospital instead of jail.

An investigation into the cause of his death is currently ongoing.

Ajibade who studied film at the Savannah College of Art and Design before deciding on computer science and switching to Savannah Technical College, was born in Lagos, Nigeria.

“Matthew was going places, and they were good places,” O’Mara said. “And we need to know why he’s never going to get there,” says his brother, Chris Oladapo.

Justin Bieber Fans Threaten to Kill The Model That Posed Alongside For Calvin Klein Ad

Earlier this week, the cute singer unveiled a series of Calvin Klein ad campaign photos that featured himself in a state of undress.  But instead of focusing on his sexy tattoos and rippling abs, some Beliebers have instead chosen to focus on the woman posing alongside on top of Bieber in this alluring pictures.

She is a model named Lara Stone. And some young women want to murder her.

“I'll kill that girl,” Tweeted a user with the handle @ameliebeliever 6, while another added: "hi bitch i hate u. touch justins d*** again and ill kill u im not joking."

Disturbingly, this is not the first time Bieber supporters have taken their passion for the star WAY too far.

In March 2011, soon after Selena Gomez started to date Justin, she was the victim of similar threats from her new boyfriend's followers.

Bieber should really take to his social media accounts and tell these misguided souls to calm the eff down.

In another controversy related to his seductive photo shoot, meanwhile, many are asking another troubling question: Did Justin stuff his crotch?

Photo: Kylie Jenner Cleavage Photo Shocks Fans, Nearly Breaks Instagram

Kylie Jenner flaunts some insane cleavage in her latest Instagram photo, sending her followers and pretty much all of the Internet into collective freak-out mode.

One glance below and you'll quickly know why ...

 

Kylie Jenner's cleavage is off the hook in this photo. Just unbelievable, really. Is it real? We think so. Is it spectacular? You tell us.

 

We're used to revealing, envelope-pushing photos from Kendall and Kylie Jenner by now, but never before has she shown such ample, supple ...

Just look at those things. Wow. Just wow.
 
Kim Kardashian’s half-sister showed off her assets in a low cut tank that had many praising her look, but left others making plastic surgery accusations.

“Has boob injections too tho! @kyliejenner,” one commenter wrote, in reference to the much talked-about debate over the size of Kylie Jenner's lips.

One responded thus: “How in the f--k?”
That pretty much sums it up right there.
In her recent Cosmopolitan cover story, Kylie denied that she's gotten any work done ... yet. "I'm not against surgery,” Jenner told the publication.

"I’d never say no, but I don't desire it right now.”
"You guys have watched me grow up since I was 9. My face is going to get different. I [just] know how to do my makeup, contour and everything."

The body is going to get different too, apparently.

What do you think of Kylie's new look, and the photos that showcase it? Are you loving it or do you fear for her and long for the good old days?

Bride Dumps Groom On Wedding Day: See Why

A final student of Federal Polytechnic, Oko in Anambra State, southeast Nigeria, did the unthinkable when she snubbed her groom on her wedding day and called off the wedding already arranged by the two families.

  

      Ekene Uzoigwe:The supposed groom
 

According to Source, the wedding was to take place on Saturday, 3 January, 2015 and guests invited to witness the ceremony at St Patrick Catholic Church, Umuchu in Aguata Local government, Anambra State, were shocked when Ifunanya Igwebuike refused to show up to tie the knot with Ekene Uzoigwe.

After several hours of waiting, she later sent a message to the Parish Priest, Rev. Father Lawrence Maduagwu, that she was no longer interested and asked him to cancel the wedding.

Ifunanya alleged that she could not go ahead with the marriage because she was a graduate unlike Uzoigwe whom she claimed was a school drop-out.

Rev. Maduagwu had no option than to inform the groom and the guests that were already seated at the church hall that the wedding had been cancelled.

This caused an uproar in the church as guests who expressed shock over what happened started trooping out of the church.

Narrating what happened,  Uzoigwe said he proposed to Ifunanya for marriage and she agreed on condition that he would send her to school, which he agreed.

He said after she gained admission, he was financing her education and they agreed to wed during her final year.

He said he had paid her bride price and she was part of the whole wedding plan and he even gave her parents N160,000 to prepare for the wedding, besides other arrangements and expenses incurred on the wedding and reception.

Uzoigwe said she did not inform him about her decision to back out of the wedding until he got to the church only for the priest to inform him and the guests about  the cancellation of the wedding.

“If she had informed me, I would not have made arrangements. We had already cooked food and bought drinks for the wedding,” he said.

He said when he contacted her parents, they said they would not force her and asked him to come and take back the money he gave them to prepare for the wedding.

Uzoigwe said he was still shocked about what happened because he did not quarrel with Ifunanya before the fateful day.

He said he also made sure she was comfortable by making money available to her while in school.

Uzoigwe is a business man based in Abakiliki, the Ebonyi State capital. He met Ifunanya at their home town, Umuchu, where he proposed and sent her to school.

President Obama's Daughter, Malia Rocks Pro Era T-Shirt in Mysterious New Pic - See Photo

A mysterious new photo appearing to show U.S. President Barack Obama's eldest daughter, Malia Obama, wearing a hip-hop group's T-shirt is going viral.

Posted on social media Sunday, the picture features the 16-year-old in a white shirt emblazoned with the logo of Brooklyn-based collective Pro Era:

Malia Obama is seen with both arms behind her head, double ear piercings, a ponytail and a wide-mouthed expression that is neither a frown nor a smile.

While the image's exact origins and authenticity remain unknown, a member of the hip hop group confirmed that it had been sent by an Obama friend.

Pro Era founder Joey Bada$$ said through a rep that Pro Era had received the snapshot from "a mutual friend of Malia and the Pro Era member."

Public interest in the First Daughter has risen in the past year as she and her 13-year-old younger sister Sasha continue to display more personality.

Back in August, a rare selfie of Malia Obama showed the First Daughter at a Chance the Rapper show at the Lollapalooza music festival in Chicago.

                         Malia and Sasha Obama on Thanksgiving. 

 

They were slammed by a GOP Congressional aide for not showing enough class.

 

More recently, the two siblings joined their parents for a family vacation in Hawaii, where they disembarked Air Force One looking really grown up.

"One child is going to be driving this summer," First Lady Michelle Obama recently said of how quickly time passes when you're a parent. "Look out!"

"My youngest loves dancing. She dances in an organized program several times a week, but they’re into what kids are into," FLOTUS went on.

Apparently that includes Pro Era in Malia's case. What do you think of the pic? 

Would anyone care if it weren't the First Daughter? Should they? Discuss.

Mercy Johnson: I am Grateful and Happy New Year To My Fans

Mercy Johnson is grateful to her fans all over the world.

The Nollywood diva sent messages yesterday to thank her fans for their love and support they gave her in 2014. She also said she has received their complains about her not dressing up to standard and promises to change.

One of the best feelings one can have is the feeling that some people who have never met you in person have your back.

I have experienced love from unimaginable people; Ghana, Liberia, Paris, UK, USA, Seychelles and all over the world.

More Below......

Some met me crying, gave me gifts, took pictures, asked questions, and some, not so pleasant. But in all of these, I have no complaint because being where I am is a gift and privilege by God. A privilege and a place I never thought I would be, a few years ago. This level has its own attendant consequence, as I take in the blessing; I appreciate the not-so-pleasant side as well.  For this, I am grateful to God, my fans, and stakeholders in the industry who love me just the way I am.

I want to also say a very big thank you to my husband for giving me room to fly. Some men out there would probably have clipped my wings but Odi is not some kind of man. I want to say thank you for being so supportive and understanding.

I want to take this time to say thank you to everyone who made the journey of 2014 easier despite the attendant challenges. I am grateful to the marketers and my colleagues who stayed in touch with me even when I was pregnant, directors who were patient with me, fans who watched all the movies of 2014, those who took time out to search for me on Google, who corrected me in love and those who watched ‘30 Days in Atlanta’ (to make it biggest Nollywood movie in cinema history). I am also grateful to everyone who showed me one form of love or the other during the birth of our second son, Prince Henry: Nigerian Embassy in the US, social media followers and my ever diligent media and management company, Bigsam Media.

I plan and hope that 2015 will be different from previous years. The jobs I will do will be slightly different from that of the past. I will take up more challenges. I will also have to balance things out because I still have to play the role of a wife and mother, but all in all, there should be a new Mercy Johnson of sort.

As per the style, I have received all your complaints and I will try and improve but please, do not forget I am just a down-to-earth-girl-next-door. Thank you.

And please, AMVCA is around the corner, let’s win again together this year, on how to vote, check @bigsammedia on Twitter.

As always I am grateful. I wish you the best this year has to offer. Happy New Year.
