I Was Chained and Forced to Sexually Satisfy 30 Men in a Night - Shocking Confession of a Nigerian Sex Slave

Adejoke, a Lagos indigene, explained that an impoverished background led her to survive by hawking water as a young girl before she becoming an apprentice hair stylist.

Her is heart-breaking. Lured by a false promise of ‘greener pastures’ abroad, the young Nigerian ended up a merciless victim of human trafficking, chained to a bed in a dingy, dirty Libyan room and forced to sexually satisfy up to 30 men in a single night...

“When I lost my dad, his family claimed my mum was responsible for his death,” the 21 year old tearfully said, sharing her experiences at a popular church in Lagos. “They left us with her and ever since then, she has been the one catering for us.”

Aged 19, a middle-aged lady walked into the shop where she was styling and approached her with an unusual proposal. “She came to me and said there was a country she was staying in and if she took me to that country, I would make money and would be able to cater for my family.”

“My happiness knew no bounds,” she recalled, her judgement veiled by the blind promise of greener pastures. “I said, ‘Finally, an angel has come’. Unknown to me, she was a devil in human’s clothing.”

Just one week later, without even informing her mum or siblings, Ifekoya was in a vehicle with the mysterious lady en route to Libya. “She said when we got there, we would board a flight to Spain where I would start work as a stylist”.

The long journey by road through the infamous Sahara Desert was nothing short of hellish. “We were seeing dead bodies strewn on the ground,” she reminisced, shuddering at the grisly recollection.

“Even the vehicle that was following us directly passed on top of a buried bomb; the vehicle just exploded and everybody there died.” Ifekoya witnessed scenes far too horrific to repeat as masked men attacked a vehicle close to hers, beating the occupants to a stupor and raping the women inside.

Finally making it to Libya’s capital city of Tripoli, Adejoke was taken by the woman to a duplex. The first glimpse of her new home was a shock to behold. “I met five Nigerian girls there who were half-naked,” she stated. Smiling wryly at her bewildered confusion, the woman said she would ‘explain everything tomorrow’.

“The following morning, when I woke up, she brought some underwear for me and said these were the clothes I must use to work,” the young Nigerian narrated to the sober crowd.

As realisation dawned to what she had unknowingly entangled herself in, Ifekoya bluntly refused. “That afternoon, people said they wanted to meet me because I was new but I protested,” she continued.

“So, the woman went outside and brought a cane. They really beat me up until I was very weak. She then took me to one of the rooms and tied me down there. She tied my hands to the back of my head and tied my legs separately so that they were open. That very day, 30 men used me in the room where I was chained.”

Shackled as a sex slave alone in the dark, dirty room save for the ravenous men who forced themselves on her, Ifekoya’s willpower slowly began wilting.

“After two weeks, the other girls came to me and said that if I didn’t accept to do this, she would tie me down for two years. When I knew the whole thing was like that, I just accepted.”

Informed that she would have to repay a total of $9,000 to the devilish lady to ‘cover the costs’ of her travel to Libya, the young Nigerian prostituted for almost one year before finally ‘earning’ enough to ‘buy’ her freedom.

However, as hope finally beckoned that she could leave such hellish lifestyle, fate struck another venomous blow. “Immediately I planned to leave the place, I started falling sick – seriously sick.”

Nearly one year of sleeping with multiple men on a nightly basis had taken its toll on her young body. “To my greatest surprise, my womb fell. I had to be taken to the hospital where they operated on me to remove it.”

Feeble and practically penniless, Ifekoya now faced the ominous challenge of making enough money for the journey back to Nigeria. Her options were limited. “At the end of the day, I had no choice. I still had to resort to the same thing to come back to Nigeria,” she admitted.

Eventually ending up in another brothel, she began saving up for the return leg of her nightmare journey. After encountering a fellow Nigerian prostitute who had a similar story as a victim of deception and exploitation, the duo struck a strong friendship and resolved to make the journey together.

At this point, they made what turned out to be a life-changing discovery. “It was when we were in one of our friend’s houses that we were introduced to Emmanuel TV,” she explained. “We started watching and praying along with it.”

Almost 2 years after her intrepid trip across the Sahara Desert, Ifekoya and her friend embarked on the journey back to Nigeria. Inspired by the clips they had seen on Emmanuel TV, the television station of controversial Nigerian pastor T.B. Joshua, they decided to make The Synagogue, Church Of All Nations (SCOAN) their first port of call.

After receiving prayer for ‘deliverance’ from the ‘spirit of prostitution’ and hearing of their sordid stories, Joshua decided to give the ex-prostitutes N200,000 ($1,200) each to restart their lives.

“God has kept me alive to pass this message across to the youth,” the young Nigerian emotionally concluded, admonishing her age-mates not to fall prey to the same tactics used to lure her into slavery.

WHO confirms DR Congo Ebola-free

The World Health Organization confirmed Friday that the Democratic Republic of Congo was Ebola-free, as 42 days had passed since the last case in an outbreak that killed at least 49 people.
 GUINEA-HEALTH-EBOLA
The DRC outbreak, which began in August, involved a different strain of Ebola from the one that has claimed more than 5,400 lives in west Africa.

“The Democratic Republic of Congo is now considered free of Ebola transmission,” the UN health agency said in a statement.

The all-clear for the country, where 66 people were infected, came after twice the 21-day incubation period had passed with no new cases detected.

DRC had declared itself Ebola-free nearly a week ago, but WHO said the country’s seventh outbreak of the deadly virus was officially over only on Thursday.

100-year-old woman sees ocean for first time

Just weeks before turning 101, Ruby Holt has seen the ocean for the first time.

She has spent most of her life on a farm in rural Tennessee picking cotton and said she never had the time or money to go to a beach.

"I've heard people talk about it and how wonderful it was and wanted to see it, but I never had the opportunity to do so," she said.

Now she has been on an all-expenses paid trip to the Gulf of Mexico.

Ms Holt's holiday was funded by the assisted living centre where she lives along with a charity which grants wishes to elderly people called Wish of a Lifetime.

She said she had never seen anything as big as the ocean but kept describing the November weather as "cold".

Mark Davis, executive director of Brookdale's Sterling House, where Ms Holt lives said two employees filled out the application for her after finding out that she wanted to see the ocean for the first time.
"They did a water gun fight out in the courtyard during the summer and water got brought up, the beach, and that's what she told the girls, that she had never been," he said.
"When we got to the room yesterday she was just pointing out the ocean and, you know, her facial expressions and... she was just speechless."

Ms Holt, who has four children, said she was always too busy on the farm or working in a shirt factory to travel and that the family never had enough money.
The holiday to the beach in Alabama was the furthest she had ever been from her home in Giles County. Ms Holt said she had only left the state of Tennessee once before.
To visit the beach she travelled 400 miles - approximately the same distance as going from London to Glasgow.

She had been leant a motorised wheelchair which had been adapted to be used on sand and with the support of care workers was able to stand and dip her toes in the water.
Ms Holt said: "We don't have nothing like this in Giles County."

Body Odor: 10 Foods That Cause Bad Body Odor

Food is dire and essential for our existence but there are certain foods that are known to impart foul body odor and act as dark spots to your personality. Bad body odor can sabotage your reputation and lower your confidence.
Body Odor Causing Foods
Most of us are very particular about food. Food undoubtedly plays a significant role in shaping our personality. Someone has correctly mentioned, “You are what you eat.”

Foods affect your body odor. There are foods that give a foul body odor and bad breath.  We spend exorbitantly on deodorants and antiperspirant just to smell soothing and confident. One thing is for sure that none of us want to step out smelling awful.

Following are 10 foods to avoid in your cuisine to be confident of smelling good.

10 Foods That Can Change Your Body Odor

Want to make an unstinky and impeccable impression just stay away from these foods.

1.  Garlic

You must have read in novels that garlic is a wonderful way to keep Dracula at bay. Garlic is a good way to get rid not of Dracula but almost everyone. Its smell is hard to bear.
The strong garlic smell lingers in your breath up to 72 hours. Though it has great medicinal properties but avoid consuming it particularly if you are going for a party.

2. Onion

Just like garlic onions too are known to impart a foul body odor and your breath. Onions are famous for lowering cholesterol and have some vital medicinal ingredients. Raw onions make your breath smelling stinky for hours. Cooked onions are better than raw ones.

3. Alcohol

Alcohol is another element whose consumption may produce foul body odor. Over-drunk person smell obnoxiously bad. The breath mints and mouthwashes simply fail to mask the awfully bad smell. The only recovering element from body odor is time.

4. The Durian Fruit

Durian is one fruit that is banned at public places owing to its extremely obnoxious dirty laundry-like smell. Durian fruit have a custard-like texture. The smell is hard to stand and it causes body odor.

5. Asparagus

Foods affect your body odor in two ways. There are foods that show their signs in your sweat while other might reveal them in your urine. Asparagus is one such food containing thioesters and methanethiol that makes urine smelly.

6. Radish

Raw radish is also known to impart a bad odor to your mouth. Radish gives a strong pungent odor that is quite evident while you talk to others.

7. Fish

Fishes are the richest source of Vitamin A. They are good for improving your vision and enhance the skin elasticity. Too much consumption of fishes makes your sweat smelly and hard to stand.

8. Red Meat

Well red meat takes a long time to get digested and lies stagnant in the stomach for a long time. It releases toxins and causes bad odor in the sweat and foul mouth odor.

9. Coffee

Coffee cause acidity and therefore leads to bad breath. Avoid consuming too many beverages like tea and coffee to smell confidently.

10. Dairy Products

Dairy products are indeed rich sources of calcium and vitamin D but they cause foul body odor due to the high protein content. This protein is broken down in the gastric tract by bacteria and bad breath is produced.

Say What? Why Successful People Wear The Same Thing Every Day....(Must Read)

Have you ever thought about how much time you likely waste deciding what to wear in the morning? It’s probably made you late to school or work more times than you can count.

 simplicity
We waste so many precious moments concerning ourselves with frivolous details. An outfit will not change the world, it probably won’t even change your day. This is not to say that fashion isn’t important, as it has an immense impact on culture and, in turn, the direction of society.

Indeed, fashion is where art, culture and history intersect. If we look at the 1960s, for example, the way people dressed was very much a reflection of the counterculture movement and the anti-establishment sentiments of the era.

Simply put, clothes can tell us a lot about sociology.
Yet, at the same time, we’ve arguably become an excessively materialistic and superficial society. Undoubtedly, there are greater things to worry about than clothes.
Similarly, as the great American author Henry David Thoreau once stated:
Our life is frittered away by detail.
…Simply, simplify.
In essence, don’t sweat the small stuff. Make your life easier by concentrating on the big picture.
Correspondingly, a number of very successful people have adopted this philosophy in their daily routines.

Why Many Presidents And CEOs Wear The Same Thing Every Day

Whether you love or hate him, it’s hard to argue against the notion that President Obama has the most difficult job in the world. As the leader of the most powerful country on the planet, the president has a lot on his plate.

Regardless of what he does, he will be criticized. Simply put, he’s got a lot of important things to think about beyond his wardrobe.

This is precisely why President Obama wears the same suit every single day. Well, almost every day, we can’t forget about the time the internet exploded when he wore a khaki suit. Although, that probably says less about him and more about us.

The majority of the time, however, Obama wears either a blue or gray suit. In an article from Michael Lewis for Vanity Fair, the president explained the logic behind this routine:
‘You’ll see I wear only gray or blue suits’ [Obama] said.
‘I’m trying to pare down decisions. I don’t want to make decisions about what I’m eating or wearing. Because I have too many other decisions to make.’ He mentioned research that shows the simple act of making decisions degrades one’s ability to make further decisions.
As Stuart Heritage puts it for the Guardian, “Barack Obama has pared his wardrobe down to such a degree that he can confidently walk into any situation and make decisions that directly impact on the future of mankind.”

The president is not alone in this practice. The late, great, Steve Jobs wore his signature black turtleneck with jeans and sneakers every single day.

Moreover, Mark Zuckerberg typically wears a gray t-shirt with a black hoody and jeans when seen in public. Similarly, Albert Einstein reportedly bought several variations of the same gray suit so that he wouldn’t have to waste time deciding what to wear each morning.

This is all related to the concept of decision fatigue. This is a real psychological condition in which a person’s productivity suffers as a result of becoming mentally exhausted from making so many irrelevant decisions.
Simply put, by stressing over things like what to eat or wear every day, people become less efficient at work.

This is precisely why individuals like President Obama, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerberg and Albert Einstein decided to make life easier by adopting a monotonous wardrobe. Obviously, as these are some of the most successful and productive individuals in history, they are on to something.

Make Life Simple

Indeed, having a diverse collection of clothing is overrated. We waste so much time worrying about things that have no substantial consequences, and don’t even realize how easily we could change this.
This is exactly why president Jose Mujica of Uruguay rejects conformity and refuses to wear a tie, stating:
The tie is a useless rag that constrains your neck.
I’m an enemy of consumerism. Because of this hyperconsumerism, we’re forgetting about fundamental things and wasting human strength on frivolities that have little to do with human happiness.
He’s absolutely right. The vast majority of us are guilty of obsessing over material things. When it comes down to it, they bring no real value to our lives. True fulfillment is acquired by going out into the world and fostering palpable and benevolent changes.

Buying a new pair of shoes might make you feel more confident in the short-term, but it will not enrich your life in the long-term.

Undoubtedly, the world would be an extremely boring place if we all wore the same exact thing every day.
Yet, we might all consider simplifying our lives a bit more by reducing the amount of time we spend thinking about pointless aspects of our day. In the process, one might find that they are significantly less stressed, more productive and more fulfilled.

Life is complicated enough, don’t allow the little things to dictate your happiness. Simplify, simplify.

OMG!!! Saudi wife divorced for ignoring husband's Whatsapp messages

A Saudi man has divorced his wife of two years after she ignored his Whatsapp messages despite being an avid smartphone user.

 
The husband, in his 30s, was frustrated by his wife’s seemingly endless interest in using her phone for chatting with friends and family.
He said she spent most of her time on the phone to the point that she neglected looking after their home and taking care of their child, local news site Al Weam reported.
He added that his best efforts to remedy to the situation has failed.

The wife said she needed to be on her smartphone to keep in touch with her family and friends.
However, the situation deteriorated when the husband tried to get in touch with his wife and called her from his office, but she didn't answer the phone.
 
He sent her messages on Whatsapp and knew she had read them because of the latest update on the application.
He became worried and decided to leave work and go home to see what was wrong with her. When he arrived, he found her sitting in the living room, watching television
.
He asked her why she didn't answer him or acknowledged his messages. When she answered that she was too busy talking with her friend to answer his calls or his messages, he decided to divorce her.
Most online readers posted they were shocked by the domestic situation of the couple and the breakup of their marriage resulting mainly from their irresponsible behaviour and inability to deal with the issue rationally.
The wife was blamed for her negligence and carelessness while the husband was criticised for allowing the situation to go so far.
