Goodwill Message Delivered By His Excellency Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode

Protocol, Let me on behalf of the government and people of Lagos State express deep appreciation to the Chairman, the executives and members of the Christian Association of Nigeria, Lagos State chapter for keeping faith with this annual programme aimed at seeking divine intervention in the affairs of our State. I believe this yearly congregation is one of the major reasons for the progress and prosperity our State has continuously witnessed. I have no doubt that today’s service will usher in the presence of God as we reverence him in intense words and prayers. There is nothing prayers cannot do in the lives of people who look upon the Lord and surrender their affairs in His able hands. In the book of 1Thessalonian 5:17, we are commanded to pray without ceasing After all, Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ started with prayer and ended with prayer. ‘Humility in Service’, the theme of this Divine Service says it all. John 13:1-16 where the theme is taken from

UK Man Spent Ten Years Tattooing His Body Black

Image
A 27-year-old tattoo artist from England who goes by the name Eli Ink is making a name for himself as he is turning his skin black by using coats of ink. In his own words "‘I’ve always been blown away by art itself. Picasso is a huge childhood inspiration to me, especially abstract art, but I do like all forms of art. Body art was just the next local step for me growing up.’ You can easily see his obsession with the abstract on his own body. It's a philosophy that guides the choices he makes.  'I wanted to look like an abstract character in one of Picasso’s paintings. I love the abstract look, no thought, just pure expression,'  ‘My work is not perfect, there is still room for improvement, everyone must start somewhere.’ Eli said the negative reactions don’t bother him anymore. ‘The best is always nice compliments, that’s always nice to hear, either from tattoo collectors or just passers-by, the worst is always older generation looking

Maradona Refused Entry Into US For insulting Trump

Image
According to Diego Maradona’s lawyer, the Argentine legend has been refused entry to the USA for insulting president Donald Trump. The 57-year-old former World Cup winner wanted to obtain a visa to travel to Miami, Florida, for a court case involving his ex-wife, Claudia Villafane. However, Maradona’s lawyer, Matias Morla, appeared on Argentine TV show Buenos Dias America and discussed comments the legendary player made on Venezuelan network TeleSur. “You can imagine, I was in the embassy and I said ‘Diego, please don’t talk about the United States’. Because the interview was with TeleSur and I know how these things go. “And the second question was ‘What do you think of Donald Trump’? “He said ‘Donald Trump is a chirolita (a slang term for dummy or puppet)?’ After this, I said I’m going to have to represent you in Miami instead.” The court case in Miami surrounds Villafane allegedly buying seven apartments in Miami with money she stole from Maradona. Maradona is current

World’s Tallest Man Meet World's Smallest Woman For A Photoshoot

Image
Have you met a 24-year-old woman that is just 2 feet tall? I bring to you Jyoti Amge, an Indian woman notable for being the world's smallest living woman in the world according to Guinness World Records. Amge’s height is due to a form of dwarfism called achondroplasia. It is a genetic disorder that affects bone growth, causing short stature and disproportionately short limbs. She was declared the shortest woman in the world in 2001 at the age of 18. At that time, she weighed just 11 pounds! Jyoti Amge (2 ft 0.6 in) and Sultan Kösen ( 8 ft 2.82 in ) met up in Egypt for a photoshoot and the resulting pictures are amazing! The project was organized by the Egyptian tourism promotion board, and it’s safe to say it is garnering quite a bit of attention. Howbeit, she looks roughly the size of Kosen’s shoes! And who is  Sultan  Kosen? Sultan  Kosen  is a Kurdish man from Turkey, born 10 December 1982  he has 4 siblings (3 brothers and a sister) who are of normal height, he

In just two days into season three of the TV reality show, BB Naija has recorded it's first romantic moment. In the less than 15secs video, both were seen sharing some passionate kisses.. This comes as quite a surprise because it appeared Miracle was quite enamoured by Ifu Ennada orginally and Nina has made it clear that she is very serious about her boyfriend outside the House. Was this just a case of carnal attraction or are both Miracle and Nina making moves as a part of a strategy? Big Brother Naija is turning out to be a melting pot full of flavour and we wouldn't expect anything less, what with all these smart and attractive people all in one confined space.
