Caroline Danjuma Fights Dirty with Husband’s Alleged Mistress on Instagram

Some nasty drama went down on billionaire wife Caroline Danjuma's Instagram page two days ago, guys. Hmm!

You recall that sometime last year, Caro had taken to her IG page to warn some agents of hell in the name of mistresses that they can't break up her home. As at then, there were rumours that the very popular Matharoo sisters, that one of them was dating Caroline's husband. All of this hasn't been confirmed o. I just know that there's some bitter rage between the two parties.

Well, they both washed their dirty linen in public two days ago after Caro made a post on her Instagram page and one of her amebo followers tagged Jyoti. It degenerated to a fight between the Matharoo sister and Caroline. Caro was so pained she later went on Jyoti's page to confront her and warn her to keep her 'demonic negativity' to herself.

Jyoti wasn't going to let Caro shine on her page either. Check out the scandalous conversations that ensued. Mind blowing! Annie Idibia, Freda Francis all jumped in to defend their girl, Caroline.

NYSC Member caught in Husband Snatching Saga

A married woman who's been hearing of a female Corper running things with her husband in the office got angry when the lady sent her husband a message at night. What transpired between them...

Raymond Dokpesi Jnr, the son of embattled chairman of DAAR group, Chief Raymond Dokpesi has released a statement distancing his father from the controversial $2.1 billion arms deal scandal.

According to a statement released titled "The Continued Detention of High Chief Raymond Dokpesi by The EFCC on Allegations of Money Laundering" which was signed by him, he said his father was only contracted to develop a Multi Media Strategic Development Support Project to promote and project the achievements and highlight the challenges of former president Jonathan's government. He says in the statement that his father is not a contractor with the Ministry of Defence and does not supply arms. The full text of the statement below;

THE CONTINUED DETENTION OF HIGH CHIEF RAYMOND DOKPESI BY THE EFCC ON ALLEGATIONS OF MONEY LAUNDERING

1. It has become very imperative that following an article published in the Nation Newspaper and reprinted in other online and social media, that we provide more clarification on the current detention without trial of Dr. Raymond Dokpesi by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC in Abuja over allegations of Criminal Conspiracy and Money Laundering.

2. In the first place there is no iota of truth whatsoever that Dr. Dokpesi had a hand in any transaction with the former National Security Adviser regarding the purchase of arms, locally or internationally. This falsehood has become commonplace as his detention is constantly being associated with what has generally become known by the media as the $2.1 Billion US Dollars Arms Deal Scandal.

3. We will like to make it abundantly clear that Dr. Dokpesi's DAAR INVESTMENT & HOLDINGS COMPANY LTD, initiated a proposal to the Presidency of Former President Goodluck Jonathan proposing a Multi Media Strategic Development Support Project to promote and project the achievements and highlight the challenges of his government whilst demystifying false information gleefully circulated by the propaganda machinery of the then opposition party.

4. The proposal was submitted to the Former President in person by Dr. Dokpesi and his team in the presence of the Former Vice President and the Former National Security Adviser at the Presidential Villa, Abuja. We must further emphasize that the proposal had absolutely nothing to do with the Peoples' Democratic Party (PDP), nor the Presidential Campaign Council (PCC).

5. We understand that this proposal was thoroughly studied, approved and paid for by the Presidency through the office of the National Security Adviser which to the best of our knowledge has multiple budgetary sub-heads including for the promotion and propagation of information to sustain and stabilize the government and its administration.

6. We are still at a loss as to why a Federal Government that claims to have been popularly elected only about six months ago, will embark on a wide scale propaganda, misinformation and brazen falsehood just to achieve its objective of decimating its perceived political opponents and supporters of the previous government's administration.

7. High Chief Raymond Dokpesi remains a law abiding and consummate patriot who has served his fatherland to the best of his ability with Zeal, Zest and oftentimes a very infectious sense of patriotism.

8. For the avoidance of doubt, Dr Dokpesi has never applied nor bidded for a contract for the purchase of arms. Nor has he ever been registered with the Ministry of Defence for the similar objective of engaging in the supply of Arms for the Government. Unfolding events will soon prove irrefutably and unlike what fictious stories are being fed to the media as published by The Nation Newspaper on Friday 4th December 2015.

9. We urge the Buhari-led APC Government to rigorously investigate all political and economic crimes thoroughly before embarking on a media trial and sentencing even before the law courts of Nigeria have an opportunity to adjudicate.

10. Our democracy must grow on all fronts but more so under the rule of law which remains the bedrock of any democratic system.

Signed

Raymond Dokpesi Jnr.
For the Dokpesi family

Cristiano Ronaldo Allegedly In A Gay Relationship With Moroccan Kickboxer

New reports claim that Cristiano Ronaldo is in a gay relationship with a hunky Moroccan kickboxer, it has been sensationally claimed. It is alleged the Real Madrid star, 30, regularly jets to Morocco after training for ‘cuddles’ with friend Badr Hari.

According to Spanish press, the Portuguese forward has frequently been flying to North Africa after sessions on his £14million private jet to spend time with Hari, 30.

And Daniel Riolo - a contributor on French television show ‘Touche pas a mon sport’ - incredibly hinted that pair were more than just friends. The studio audience was heard gasping when Riolo said: “Ronaldo takes three or four jets a week to see a friend in Morocco to cuddle.”

The three-time Ballon d’Or winner recently shared a series of photos on a holiday he took with Hari. He was pictured lifted in Hari’s arms with the caption “Just married. Always there to pick you up, bro” Other snaps of the trip shared a candle-lit image of a traditional Moroccan meal, as well as a picture of the pair post “wedding”.

The unfounded claims were made despite Ronaldo being linked with a number of beauties throughout his career. Ronaldo famously had a five-year relationship with Russian beauty Irina Shayk but the pair split after he admitted to sending various flirty messages to women across the globe.

Nollywood Star Actress, Yvonne Nelson Suffers Depression

A birthday is always a day to be happy, but it is not the same with Nollywood cum Ghollywood star actress, Yvonne Nelson.
The leggy former model turned actress recently revealed in a chat that turning 30 may be a remarkable landmark for her as a woman but it is obviously getting her depressed.

In an interview on a special edition of Route919 on Live 91.9 FM, Yvonne disclosed that hitting the 30-year-old mark as a woman can be quite depressing.
“I’m blessed to be 30 years but I feel depressed. I actually called my mom and said oh my God I am 30 years. As a woman, it was depressing for me,” she said.

Depression may not be a trending medical issue in this part of the world, but if this is in any way serious, we do hope that Yvonne will get the necessary therapy.
Some people are speculating that maybe the single status of the actress was the cause of her state of depression.
The Ghanaian actress was once in a relationship with Nigeria pop singer, Iyanya. The duo dated for a while and while their relationship lasted, Iyanya dedicated a track, Your Waist, to her in 2012.
