The landlord in Anambra reimburses the new tenant’s rent after learning that he is from Ebonyi State.

The affected tenant, pastor Ifeanyichukwu Eluu, wrote about his experience on the internet. What he wrote was

“My previous experience in obtaining an apartment in the state of Anambra was not pleasant. I had given the caretaker my entire payment for the apartment and was getting ready to move in the next day after signing the required tenancy agreement. 

“However, there was a later review because we had stayed in a hotel for a longer period of time.” We therefore had to move into the property as soon as possible, and we told the caretaker of this. We hurried to acquire the necessities to furnish the house immediately, and that same evening, we moved in.

“At about midnight, I noticed an alert showing the precise amount of money I gave the caregiver. As soon as I called him, he informed me that the landlord had returned the money after learning that we were from the state known as “Abakaliki,” in Ebonyi.

“I was deeply offended, ashamed, and alarmed by the degree of prejudice directed towards my fellow brothers. 

“I finally got a house but then the man asked where I’m demand I told him “Afikpo”. Then he said, okay, I know Afikpo, they are partly Abia state, I can consider you, that’s how we settled. 

Going through this route just to get a house to live in doesn’t make me happy and it seems bias.

“Please, let the concerned handlers review this in time, hence the maxim “Igbo bu ofu”.

In response to her husband’s Facebook message, the singer claims that she mistook him for a fan and chose not to reply. During a live recording of the podcast “Tea With Tay,” Simi revealed these things. She then shared the video to her Instagram page.

“I already said I cannot marry a singer, so I did not know my husband was a singer when I first met him. I mistook him for a fan. 

At one point, he was known as the “King of Photoshop.” She claimed, “I never saw the message he sent me on Facebook, and I did not reply.”

Simi stated that her objective is to defend women’s autonomy to do as they please, free from coercion or fear.

“It is all up to you whether you want to be a slay mama or the most submissive woman in the world,” she continued.

But Simi made a hint that a new album is on the way sooner rather than later.

Why I don’t consider my failed marriages as failure – Funke Akindele

Funke Akindele, a Nollywood producer, has opened up about her failures and the reasons behind her decision not to label her failed marriages as failures.

Akindele stated in a Wazobia FM interview in Lagos that her mother instilled in her the belief that success is impossible without failure at a young age.

She emphasizes the value of her work and mental health while saying she simply takes marriage “as it comes.”

The actress continued by saying that she wants to inspire the next generation, lead a meaningful life, and support her siblings and children.

“If you ask me now, can you tell me one failure? I do not see it as a failure,” she remarked. My personal life—my marriage—I just go with the flow. I put a lot of importance on my mental health. My career matters a lot, sweetheart.

“I must have an influence. I have to empower a lot of people. I have to motivate the youth in our community. I have to continue being strong for my siblings and kids. For what reason am I alive? My mind is focused because I have a goal. 

According to Funke Akindele, “Yes, I cry and I break down, but after I cry, I just look in the mirror and say, ‘keep moving.'”

According to actress Caroline Danjuma, “I regret ending my marriage and would love to go back to my ex-husband”

Remember that in 2016 after nine years of marriage, Nollywood actress Caroline Danjuma and her ex-husband Musa Danjuma called it quits?

Caroline did, however, express in an interview that she would adore going back to see her ex-husband with media personality Innih Emah.

Had she had the experience she now has, she claims she never would have left her marriage.

She explained, “I think I would have handled it better if I had been this age and had the experience I have now. There were just some irreconcilable differences.”

The love of my life would always be him, Musa. My three children are fathered by him. I said to him, “You know what?” I am lucky to have this man as my husband. That being said, he would always be my true love, and that would never change.

“I would love to start a family and get married again, whether it is to my ex-husband or a new, wonderful man that God sent. Yes, if God says this is the man you are going to marry, I would absolutely love to return to him [my ex-husband]. Happiness and mental tranquility are all I want. I just want someone I can grow with and have peace of mind with as I get older. Money is not as valuable as mental tranquility.

It is not possible; we have to deal with what each of them has to offer, he declared. They used to do this to me, so when she said she sounded like the gentle one, I almost believed her.

Do not forget that I am a product of a divorce. My former partner mentioned in our court documents that I utilize to invite my friends to share a bed with her, and that if she does not agree, I will blow her mind.

Men dislike women who are too successful, as Ini Edo explains.

Actress Ini Edo of Nollywood claims that men prefer women who can perform the basic tasks that are expected of them rather than those who are super successful.

She continued by saying that some men find women’s strength intimidating and that they are more attracted to submissive, controllable women.

She revealed this when she appeared with media star Toke Makinwa on the most recent episode of TokeMoments.

“Some men feel threatened by the strength of women,” she said. Due to the possibility of appearing overly engaged. You are a woman, first and foremost, and you are present everywhere. You are also gorgeous.

Generally speaking, men prefer it when women are not overly successful because it allows them to pull you around, claim the role of the woman, take care of the house, cook, and perform other household chores that are expected of women.

It is almost as though you are competing with their ego when you become overly strong. However, the truth is that I enjoy being the queen, as I always say. It is not my intention as a woman to ride over or subjugate any man.

“I do not think I would like to be in charge of a man, no matter how successful I become. What then makes it so beautiful? It is really lovely to stroll alongside my partner while he gives me directions and watches out for me.

Ini Edo added that she is a woman from a traditional background and feels that men are meant to be the head of the household and to look out for and take care of women and their families in general.

CHANGE THEIR WORLD. CHANGE YOURS. THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING.
