Yes, some sites actually reported that actor Chinedu Ikedieze and his wife of eight months Nneoma had a baby recently. A report he finds ridiculous. 
"Everybody knows my wife graduated from a fashion school a couple of weeks ago. Did she look pregnant or was she like a nursing mother? Yes, the photo is mine but it was taken in 2008 with a fan's baby. I don't know why it is now being recycled. I honestly don't know the intention and plan of those who are sharing the photo"

Drinking your urine daily cures you of illness? Really?

Here's something I read in a Nigerian magazine today
Do you know that drinking your urine very early in the morning, every day, makes you stay healthy all year round? It does not matter what the nature of the sickness is, urine therapy will sure be of help, since the principle remains the same; every sickness contains its own cure. Breast cancer or any other form of cancer, when detected early can be effectively treated with urine therapy.
Drink urine? Seriously? Excuse me while I go throw up...

Dear LIB readers: No marriage proposal, no engagement ring, yet about to wed

From a LIB reader
Dear Linda, I read your post on a lady not liking her engagement ring and it reminded me of my own situation. My introduction is this Saturday and my wedding is in November, yet I don't even have an engagement ring.
He never even proposed to me. Each time I speak to him about it, he makes a joke of it. I feel its kind of absurd. I have always desired to be proposed to and given a ring before my introduction day. This has always been my childhood fantasy.
Is this normal? Are there married ladies out there who got married without an engagement ring? I want LIBERs to advise me honestly and not insult me .... Smiling .

Man commits suicide in Surulere (Photos)

I got this exclusive photos and story from people who live in the area...Olaitan street in Masha, Surulere.

Is he really? Do you agree?

Is this the solution to would-be-offenders of one-way traffic in Lagos?

 
We all know about the very strict Lagos traffic laws and fines. Someone thinks this is probably the solution to prevent one-way driving in Lagos...instead of putting LASTMA officials on the roads who aren't trustworthy and also risking their lives.

Saves wasted man power hours and you are free to pass it as a road user if you have money for new set of tires. Lol. What do you guys think?

Dear LIB readers: I hate my engagement ring

From a LIB reader
My boyfriend of three years proposed to me just this Thursday night with the cheapest looking ring I've ever seen. He said the ring is expensive but it looks cheap and I hate everything about it. He said his sister picked the ring out for him. I'm not surprised she has no taste. Can I sell my ring and get another one for myself? I've seen a ring I want, should I discuss it with him or just get it without his knowledge?
