Wait a minute, so Heidi Klum cheated on Seal with her bodyguard?

That's what Seal is Claiming. After it was reported yesterday that Heidi Klum was dating her bodyguard of four years, Martin Kristen, after photos of them cavorting on the beach emerged, TMZ approached Seal for his comments about the relationship and Seal told TMZ that Heidi had been having the affair with the security guard before they separated earlier this year. What he said below...
"To be quite honest, if there is going to be somebody else in their lives, I'd much rather it was a familiar face. I guess the only thing I would have preferred is that. I guess I didn't expect any better from him, I would have preferred Heidi show a little bit more class and at least wait until we separated first before deciding to fornicate with the help, as it were. But I guess you now all have the answer that you've been looking for the past seven months."
A friend says Heidi denies she and her bodyguard were romantically involved while she was with Seal...and said it is 'sad' that Seal is making these accusations. Do you believe Seal?

The truth about Nollywood actor Rich Oganiru's arrest for allegedly killing his wife

This story went viral some days back but I didn't touch it because I wanted to get the real facts...and here's what I can tell you about Nollywood actor Rich Oganiru and his arrest for allegedly killing his wife.

He really was arrested but he has since been granted bail. The police confirmed that the Nollywood actor was arrested and is being investigated in connection with the alleged killing of his wife.

Rich Oganiru, who is one of the pioneering members of the Actor's Guild of Nigeria, was married to a rich Abuja-based business woman who fell ill and was hospitalized for over three months in a hospital in Abuja. She had a fibroid operation a few weeks before her death. The fibroid operation was supposedly successful and she was discharged. The woman was said to have died at home the same day she was discharged. It was Rich Oganiru who picked her up from the hospital. Please continue...

Waje sizzles in hot new photos; releases new singles

You have to respect the evolution of Waje as a musician. From her first popular single to Kolo, she has grown into her own, bringing out beautiful music with solid emotional depth and performing in show-stopping style.

Oko Mi is her freshest single and is a beautiful love song in Yoruba and English. Her other song 'I wish’ is the recently leaked single that has become popular overnight. It explores a woman whose heart has just been broken and is trying to let go. ‘I wish, I didn’t have a heart, Na only stone fit dey inside…..’ It’s a beautiful song. Looks like Waje is becoming our answer to true Naija soul music

Listen to both songs after the cut...

Happy New Month LIBers!!!

Dear LIB Readers: How can I make my wife climax?

Since I put up the 'Does size really matter' post yesterday, I've been getting quite a number of sex related emails from LIB readers. Decided to share this one because I find it particularly interesting. See it below
Dear people of LIB, I've been married for six years and I've not been able to give my wife an orgasm. Unlike other women, my wife doesn't fake it. We've talked about it endlessly, we've tried different positions, we've done so many things, yet no result. These days I'm reluctant to make love to her because it's no longer enjoyable for me. You can't enjoy sex if the person you're having it with isn't enjoying it. What do I do?
You can't enjoy sex if the person you're having it with isn't enjoying it? Really? Like some men care! Hehe! Anyway, back to question, what can he do?

Chairman House Committee on Sports causes stir in London hotel over pornography

I would not put something this scandalous on my blog if it's not true. This one na inside source story. Lol. Plus, a few Nigerians witnessed the show down between Gaiya and the hotel staff. I know the full story but just to be safe, I'm going to quote another source..:-). See it below...
Although the London Olympics has come and gone, yet the memory of the country’s poor outing without a medal still lingers on in people’s mind. The other astonishing story coming from London, however indicates that while Nigerian athletes were busy competing for medals at the Olympics, the Chairman House Committee On Sports, Hon. Godfrey Ali Gaiya was allegedly busy enjoying himself at the prestigious Marriot Hotel, where he lodged. Hon. Gaiya, who represents Jaba/Zangon Kataf Federal constituency of Kaduna state in the Federal House of Reps, was said to have attracted a big attention to himself when he was about to check out of the hotel.
He watched porn in his room. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Hehe! Continue reading...

Quote of the day: From Nike Oshinowo

“Anytime I enter a church people are always quick to notice me and some may not even concentrate on the service anymore as I always become the center of attraction in such cases. And this also distracts me. Therefore I have preferred to stay at home and worship God, rather than to keep causing unnecessary distractions in church.” - Nike Oshinowo 

#Isorait! lol

Emekuku Family of 9 Died Of Generator Fume – Imo State Govt

 
On Monday July 9th, nine members of the same family died mysteriously in their home. Neighbours and other family members said their deaths was spiritual.

But the Imo state government said it has finally unraveled the cause of death of the Emekuku family. According to the autopsy result released yesterday by the State Commissioner for Health, Dr Obi Njoku, they were killed by generator fume poisoning.

The commissioner said the family slept and forgot to switch off their generator set and subsequently died as a result of the generator fume they inhaled while asleep and not by ‘evil spirits'

N9 Million Plus ‘Tear Rubber’ SUV, For Just 28 Days Work?! Chei!

Considering the fact that the basic salary of Nigeria’s president (minus other perks of Aso Villa o) is less than N1 million per month, this offer sounds exciting. Except for politics, fuel subsidy claims and maybe illegal runs, very few legitimate jobs attract a N9 million monthly wage bill.
  
But this is what the winner of this year’s edition of Gulder Ultimate Search will get – N9 million and a brand new SUV. The eventual winner will also get N500, 000 swagger allowances to flex. But interested people have from now till September 13 to register. 
More details about registration for the reality TV show can be found on - Gulderultimatesearch.tv
