Murdered Man Allegedly Ressurects After 7days
For those who believe such stories...enjoy...:-)
He was murdered. After about seven days of inquiry into his ‘death’, his relatives went to the mortuary with a coffin to take his body but were shocked to find him alive. Lazarus Oluwafemi Agbolahan Makinde, now an evangelist shares his story.
To hear him, especially through the telephone receiver, you must be determined and very patient. The first time this reporter called him, the impression that initially came through as the voice was barely audible, was that he must have been tired out or had some ailment. It was indeed difficult deciphering the near whisper.

Nigeria Vice President to Get a N2billion Home
Our Vice President is getting a home worth N2 billion from the
government of Nigeria. There's a N50bn budget for the Federal Capital
Territory and N2bn, according to the FCT Minister Bala Mohammed, is
going into the construction of the official residence of Vice President
Namadi Sambo, while N300 million is for the construction of the
official residences of Senate president David Mark and his deputy, Ike
Ekweremadu; the Speaker, Aminu Tambuwal; and his deputy, Emeka Ihedioha.
So my question is; if they are building new homes for these people,
where were they living before now? First a N2bn 150-seater banquet
hall, now a N2bn home for the VP. This is the priority of the
Government of a country where more than half the population live on
under $1 a day. #Standingovation
Oh and Julius Berger is handling the home construction, with 20 months as
completion period.

Majek Fashek Cant Stop Useing Cocaine
"People must talk. But they make you popular; that's the truth. You

They said I'm crazy, I use cocaine. Well I still use cocaine. I dey
blow my nose, I dey smoke my igbo. As I speak to you, I have cocaine in
my pocket and in my house. I still dey use am. I can't stop. How will

playing without getting high. Pastors dem dey high too. The truth is
that you can't be on the human level and give the message. The humans
are looking up to you, so you must be super- human to live up to their
expectations." Majek Fashek

Monalisa Chinda's ex-husband 3rd Marriage Crashes,Ex Wife Open`s Up
I met Dejo on Facebook in 2009. In 2010 we became very close and started talking on the phone. I didn't know anything about him and in 2010 I was in Nigeria on holiday but we didn't get to meet. While in Nigeria I got to hear he was married to Monalisa Chinda. When I got back to the US I did Google his name and I saw the whole story about his marriage. At that point we were already very close and used to talk a lot. Due to the fact that we were very close, I asked him about what I read about him on the internet and he confessed that he was married and didn't talk about it because we didn't have the chance to talk. I asked him what he did wrong and why he was so violent to his wife. All these questions I asked because we were already very close and he started explaining how he met the lady in London and brought her back to Nigeria to become an actress. He stated that things started going wrong when she became a Globalcom ambassador and she started misbehaving. Infact he told me he was not legally married but they work together.Plenty more after the cut...

How Pregnant Woman Died in PH Hospital Over 20k
A pregnant Nigerian lady has died because doctors in Port Harcourt
insisted the husband must pay N20,000, less than $150, before she was
treated. And her family members are still in shock about her death,
such that they are not even thinking of burying her for now.
The 34 year old woman, Ijeoma Umumadumere, nee Ahamefule, (pictured above) was rushed in the morning of 25 November to Garrison Clinic in Port Harcourt, when she complained of a sudden stomach pain and headache, while cooking. Her husband rushed her to the clinic on Udom street in the oil rich city. It was between 9-10 a.m. And she was five-months pregnant.
But doctors and nurses would not attend to the pregnant woman because the husband only had N5,000 on him, instead of the N20,000 being demanded, as a precondition for treatment. Even the N5,000 the man had on him had been used to offset registration and other costs.
