Emeka Ike: "My Wife" Was Beaten By One Wife Snatcher

Posted: 19 Aug 2017 03:27 AM PDT

Nollywood actor, Emeka Ike is still finding it difficult to believe that he's no longer married to his wife, Suzanne Emma. The unexpected happened earlier this year, when their 14-year-old marriage was dissolved by a Lagos Island Customary Court.

According to the action, the most painful part of his life was watching the mother of his 4 children walk out of their marriage despite his plea to reconcile with her. He shares his pains and regrets, vowing, however, to unravel the circumstances that led to the crashing of their marriage. 

He also believes that his wife was used to blackmail him by those who want him dead.

You took a long break from acting, what happened? 
I tried to restructure the man, Emeka Ike. Emeka Ike is a leader and as a leader, you need to appraise and reappraise your empire and achievements. So, I have been appraising my constituency and I am happy that we are moving forward.

At a point, you relocated to Abuja from Lagos. What actually prompted your decision to move to Abuja? 
I felt that my life was seriously threatened in Lagos. I have said it before that I am going to arrest some people very soon. In fact, some people took advantage of the AGN crisis to threaten my life and all that will be sorted out very soon by the police. I relocated to Abuja to avoid a situation where I would be walking on the streets of Lagos and a criminal would gun me down. I used my discretion to stay away while I watched from afar what was happening in Lagos. That was why that woman (ex wife) is no longer living with me. God knows I am not a wife beater. I didn't touch her and my children testified to that in court. I don't know what came over her and who used her to blackmail me. But all that will be unravelled soon.

Are you saying that you never raised your hands on your ex wife? 
Have you watched that movie, where the wife was saying "everything is alright between me and my husband. He takes care of me and provides all my needs". That was the situation between my wife and I. If I didn't know I would have blamed her sudden change of character on my enemies. I love her so much. Why would she blackmail me by claiming that I was always beating her up when I didn't. To avoid the disturbing mess, I had to abandon my businesses and house in Lagos and find a new life in Abuja.

Does it mean you were not prepared for the divorce? 
I wasn't. I don't even believe we are divorced and I cannot remarry again. I am a real Christian and Christians don't divorce. I told the court that I'm not divorcing my wife but they went ahead and got an injunction against a High Court order. Why was she trying to walk out of her marriage? Who was advising her to divorce me? I must see to the end of this matter because they have put my children out there without a mother. She's in pain wherever she is right now because I know they are dealing with her. I learnt that she was beaten black and blue by one wife snatcher sometime ago, beside Mobil Petrol Station on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway. My own wife beaten up like a common criminal! I want to know what has gone wrong with my wife, I want to know the devil that is behind this. What is the extent of blackmail that brought her to this degrading level? The Inspector General of Police will be investigating into the matter very soon. While doing this, I have to stay away from Lagos because they could be after me.

You accused Pastor Chris Okotie of Household of God Church International Ministries of being the brain behind your marital crisis. How did he come into the picture? 
The guy who is confusing my wife attends his church. He's one of the elders of the church. It's a church arrangement. When there is crisis in the family, a true man of God should invite both husband and wife with the aim of resolving their differences but Chris Okotie refused to pick my calls. Whenever I called him on the telephone, he usually avoided my calls. As a man of God, he was supposed to use his position to save our marriage. I didn't chase my wife out of my house, I wanted Chris Okotie to advise her to return to her husband but he refused to pick my calls. He did not bother to find out what went wrong between us. While I am still alive, my wife was demanding that I should 'will' part of my property to her. She shut down a school I spent millions of naira to establish. Who was telling her to make such a demand? Where is she taking the property to? What happens to our children who will inherit my property? She was insisting on getting her own share of my property. At that point, I had to leave Lagos for Abuja because some people were strongly behind her and my life was no longer safe. But I'm coming back to Lagos soon. My house and property are still in Lagos. Nothing is hidden under the earth that cannot be unearthed someday. She blackmailed me for what I am not. You will feel sorry for a man whose wife was blackmailed to blackmail the entire family.

Despite the pain she has caused you, you still declare your undying love for her? 
Love never dies. Real love doesn't die, forget what we are talking about. The Bible says that "love covers multitude of sin." She's the mother of my children. She was nobody when I met her, she never knew her father. I built a house for her family in Lagos and also in Isoko. I trained her up to the master's degree level. I gave her the exposure she needed in life. There are thousands of pretty girls who would want to marry me the first week we got divorced. But I am a gentleman, it is not about marriage for me now, it's about doing the right thing. What is wrong with my woman? If it's something we can redeem her from, we will still redeem her. Forget about marrying her again. I don't need to marry again, but I need to know what was wrong with my wife. I need to know why she started blackmailing me.

Can you welcome her back into your life if she returns to you? 
Accepting her back is not the problem, but let her confess and get herself back. I believe she's under the influence of something.

How did you feel watching her walk out of her marriage? 
It's the most painful part of my life. I cried for 24 hours every day for three to four years. I was just asking myself what is happening to me. You know, in blackmail, you will not know what is going on because somebody is playing the game. It was much later that I knew what was happening to me. I need to know the strength of these blackmailers because we have law in this country. And with the law, we will look at the issues pro-actively.

Are your children missing their mother? 
They are not because they feel disappointed in her. She was their heroine. Her son was begging her, saying "mummy please come back because of me." But she replied him; "I am going to marry another man and have other children." If you can say that to your first son, it's either you have a mental problem or you are not okay spiritually. She even said to the judge that she wanted to have other children after having four children. What is wrong with her? Her case beats my imagination. I have been blackmailed, undermined and I have been crushed. She closed down my school on the day I travelled, an investment that a student at St Nicholas was paying N385,000, per session as school fees amounting to N880,000 every year. She went to the landlord and asked him to come and reclaim his property. Who is behind all these things? You cannot be unfair to me and get away with it, not when I'm still alive and seeking justice. I met her on the street and I saved her from the street. She told me she's from a poor home and that she never met her father. I promised her that I would be her father and her lover. I gave her too much opportunity to swallow me.

5 Solid Tips To Grow Your Business That Will Outlive You

Posted: 19 Aug 2017 01:22 AM PDT

Startups are appearing on the tech scene almost every day. This is good news because it shows that quite a number of people have embraced the internet as a means of transacting business. But at the same time, many of these startups with great potentials have disappeared due to the wrong execution of their growth and marketing strategy. Growth is key, yet growing a startup is really hard and most founders struggle with it.

Jumia Travel shares tips to help groom and grow your startup so that it will outlive you.

Do things you do not require in the long run 
When your startup is taking its first step, make sure you get your friends and family to work with you and use your product. Don't just stop there, you can also share what you do on blogs and engage with potential users over social media. You will get useful comments that will make your product more attractive and acceptable.

Focus on a small niche 
Since you are just starting, it is better to focus on a small niche or market because it will be much more manageable. So, don't go too broad quickly. You are more likely to grow by narrowing your target audience, better understanding customer needs, building more focused products, and tailoring your marketing message to a specific audience.

Don't chase money 
Having a startup should never be about getting rich quick. Successful startups that achieve growth early on are the ones that focus on innovation and providing unique, valuable solutions for consumers.

Regularly review strategic areas of your startup 
In the beginning, you probably laid out clear plans the strategic areas of your startup, including operations, sales/marketing, and finance. But if you want your startup to achieve growth, you need to regularly analyse and review these areas.

Delegate and trust, but verify 
One of the key problems many entrepreneurs have is trying to do too many things at the same time. If you manage everything yourself, you can ensure it works out in the smoothest way possible. But know that doing this will make you experience entrepreneurial burnout and this can hinder your startup's growth. So, trust the members of your team and know when to delegate. The important thing is for you to follow up and verify whatever they are doing.

Nigerian Police Reacts To NBS Report: "we are not corrupt"

Posted: 19 Aug 2017 12:57 AM PDT

The Nigerian police has responded to a report by the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics(NBS) alleging that officers of the police and Judges were the most corrupt in the country.

In a statement signed by CSP Jimoh Moshood, the police said;

The attention of the Nigeria Police Force has been drawn to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) and United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) reports published on the 16th August 2017 captioned "Police officers, judges most corrupt in Nigeria – NBS (Bribery as experienced by the population)". The report was claimed to have been based on a survey conducted in April and May 2016 across the Thirty Six (36) States of the Federation and the FCT.

2. The deliberately ill-timed release of the findings from a survey carried out two years ago this week is coming at a time when the Nigeria Police Force has fully keyed into the change mantra of the Federal Government of Nigeria "Change Begins with Me" and total war against corruption. The Force has also established and repositioned the mechanisms of the Force responsible for fighting corruption, bribery and other corrupt tendencies within and outside the Force.

3. The Nigeria Police Force after a careful study of the report, wishes to state categorically that the report is entirely misleading, a clear misrepresentation of facts, essentially based on hearsays which made it unempirical, and the survey instrument absolutely inadequate and therefore a plain distortion of the improved situation in the Force as a result of the renewed commitment and determination to fight corruption, bribery and corrupt tendencies in the ranks of the personnel of the Force.

4. For the avoidance of doubt, since the inception of the present administration of the Nigeria Police Force in July 2016, after the reported survey has been conducted and concluded, the Inspector General of Police has introduced and implemented diverse internal reforms aimed at bringing corruption to zero level in the Force as follows:

i. To ensure that Police Officers operate within the principle of the rule of law and respect the rights of Nigerians while performing their constitutional duties of protecting lives and property and to abhor corruption, the Police formulated a new set of directive principles titled "Our Creed" to reposition the minds and hearts of every Police officer and launched with the following doctrines:

(a). We shall police the country based on international core values of policing with integrity

(b). We shall ensure that the rule of law prevails in our actions and activities

(c). We shall respect diversity, display courage, show compassion and demonstrate professionalism

(d). We shall operate within the principles of Democratic policing

(e). We shall shun corruption

(f) We shall make Nigeria safer and secured

II. Similarly, to further make police officers imbibe a culture where the rule of law forms the bedrock of our actions and activities, and give the fight against corruption the bite and new impetus, this administration has commenced the training of officers on the Administration of Criminal Justice Act (ACJA). The Act is considered an important legislation because of its innovative provisions, and every Police Officer has been enjoined to follow strictly the provisions of the Act. This will to a very large extent has been reduced and eliminated, instances of unlawful arrests, illegal detentions and inhumane treatments in the police stations across the country that can tempt officers to corruption tendencies.

III. The X-Squad Unit of the Force responsible for the arrest, detention, investigation, and prosecution of any officer found wanting and culpable of corruption, bribery or corrupt tendencies has been reinvigorated, equipped and its personnel retrained with detachments in all the Thirty-Six (36) States of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory Abuja to deal decisively with corruption allegations made against police officers to eliminate corruption in the Force.

IV. The Re-launch of Complaint Response Unit (CRU) to a more broadened Public Complaints Rapid Response Unit (PCRRU) was carried out by the current Police Management Team to facilitate dynamism and to promptly address complaints against officers of the Force bothering on corruption. This unit is responsible for receiving and attending to reports of corruption from members of the public against Police officers, it was relaunched by the Inspector General of Police in Abuja in late 2016 and subsequently launched simultaneously by Commissioners of Police in all the Commands of the Thirty Six (36) States of the Federation and the FCT last year.

V. Formation and take- off of Eminent Persons Forum across the Thirty Six (36) States of the Federation and the FCT to create public enlightenment campaign against corruption within the Force and inform the Public of the free and unhindered access to the Nigeria Police Force to report complaints of corruption against Police Officers.

5. The Nigeria Police Force has been working with critical stakeholders in the Criminal Justice System in the country' and other local and International Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) including International Human Rights Organizations to train and re-train Police Personnel to conform to international best practices to shun and detest corruption, bribery and corruption tendencies. This has engendered a change of attitudes and good disposition in the conduct of Police Personnel throughout the country towards abstaining from corruption.

6. However, it must be pointed out that the Nigeria Police Force sees the report as a clear demonstration of mischief and calculated attempt to promote a campaign of calumny against Police Officers. Nowhere in the report were references made to either the improved transparency in the Nigeria Police Force or the sustained daily sacrifice being made by gallant officers and men of the force in confronting criminalities in the society.

7. The Inspector General of Police, IGP Ibrahim K. Idris, NPM, mni wishes to reassure Nigerians and the International Community that the Nigeria Police Force will continue to fight, discourage and shun corruption, bribery and corrupt tendencies within and outside the Force, and continue to discharge its statutory responsibilities according to the rule of law despite the obvious distractions from the report.

8. The renewed determination of the Force to adhere to International Police Reforms and conform to standard principles, building trust and confidence in the citizenry and above all comply and support the Federal Government War Against Corruption remained unequivocal and unwavering.

Want To Know What We Can Learn From Our Dreams?

Posted: 19 Aug 2017 12:27 AM PDT

I cannot interpret dream, nevertheless, when there are spiritual principles that may help.

First, a blessing is in store for all who long for the Second Coming. 
Your dream, in some ways, pictures the Second Coming. Perhaps that's because it's on your heart or in your thoughts… and that's a positive thing in God's eyes.

"Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing." (2 Thessalonians 4:8).

Next, God promises a blessing to those who read and study the Book of Revelation.
I would encourage you to dive into the Book of Revelation starting today. There are several excellent Bible studies and commentaries that would supplement your study. And I know that you will be blessed by the truth!

"Look, I am coming soon! Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy written in this scroll." (Revelation 22:7)

As believers, we have authority over Satan. 
Your dream seems to show that you understand this principle and are not afraid to act according to it. That's great, because I hope you cultivate that understanding, so that you recognize the acts of the Evil One and stand against them.

"Be Still And Know That I Am God." (Psalm 46:10)

In the midst of spiritual battle, watch out for satanic deception. 
Satan can be disguised with false religion and false teaching. After all, he is called the "angel of light." Carefully watch, wait, and pray. Always.

"But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent's cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ." (2 Corinthians 11:3)

It's always good to look to the heavens for help. 
When you encounter frightening, discouraging, or uncertain situations, I always turn first to heaven. That includes fervent prayer, setting my mind on heavenly things through memorizing Bible verses, and focusing on His work in my life.

"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence comes my help. My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth." (Psalm 121:1-2)

Pray before sleeping, and ask the Holy Spirit to protect your mind and heart as you sleep. 
It's very easy to fill your mind with all kinds of worries, fears, and negative things before bed. Sometimes TV, social media, or other activities can get you worked up. I would recommend that you take a few minutes before bed to pray and read some Scripture. You will calm your mind and heart… and the Holy Spirit will protect you always.

"'Does Job fear God for nothing?' Satan replied. 'Have you not put a hedge around him and his household and everything he has?'" (Job 1:9)

"Commune with your own hearts on your beds, and be silent." (Psalm 4:4)

Maybe our dreams do have purpose... bringing our attention to biblical truth.

Tips To Help You Get A Study Scholarship

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 11:12 PM PDT

Winning a scholarship isn't as hard as you might think, there are certain tips that can help you maximize the process and achieve your goal of winning a study scholarship. Jumia Travel shares 8 helpful tips for getting a study scholarship.

Apply To Every Scholarship To Which You Are Eligible 

This is one of the best strategies to ensure you win at least one scholarship. If you work hard and are able to win more than one, you will have options to choose from. In addition, some of these scholarships are in form of monetary grants, and if you are able to win enough of these scholarships, the money can add up into what can sustain you as a full scholarship.

Start Your Search As Soon As Possible 
When trying to get a study scholarship, you need to start your search as soon as possible because if you wait till the last minute you will miss half the deadlines. There are many scholarship schemes out there for you to take advantage of, you just need to start your search as soon as possible, even before your final year if possible. Be sure to consider scholarships from private foundations and government bodies, in addition to those of the universities you intend to apply to. Even company scholarship schemes, should be considered as long as you're eligible.

Ensure You Have A Professional Online Profile 
This is more of a precautionary move, in case your online profile is considered during the screening of your application. Ensure you use a professional email address on your applications and clean up the content of your social media accounts, removing inappropriate and immature material.

Be Weary Of Scholarship Scams 
There is nothing like a 'guaranteed scholarship' and you don't pay an application fee for a scholarship. Don't be too eager or desperate when searching for scholarships, so you don't fall into the trap of fraudsters. Ensure you confirm the credibility of whatever private foundation or government body you intend to apply to, before going forward with the application. This is because there are some fraudsters out there posing as 'scholarship companies' to take your money and disappear. You, therefore, have to be smart about your scholarship search.

Keep A Good Record of All Documents 
You shouldn't be looking to get the necessary application documents together at the last minute, instead you should ensure that all documents that are likely to be required are ready or you at least have a way to easily get them ready when needed. You shouldn't try to get needed documents together at the last minute to avoid making mistakes with your application and missing important deadlines.

Consider Scholarships With Smaller Awards 
Scholarships with smaller awards are usually less competitive and easier to win, so you can consider applying for these. To maximize this option, you can apply for as many of such smaller scholarship awards that you're eligible for, and work hard to win as many of them as you can. Eventually, the awards can add up to something significant enough to help you with most of your study goals, if not all.

Make Sure Your Application Is Good 
Try to figure out what is expected of you on the application and be authentic with your delivery of this. Brush up your essay writing skills and refine them to excellence so this can help boost the strength of your application in the essay writing category. Basically, do your research well, and ensure you give all it takes to submit an outstanding application by all standards.

Don't Be Deterred By Failure 
Yes, you might get a few negative responses on your scholarship applications but it's not the end of the world. Don't give up. Even if you don't win a scholarship on entry into higher institution, you can still continue to apply for some available to you while you're studying. Eventually, you will get one because like most things in life, the most successful scholarship winners are the ones that keep trying. Don't let failure stop you, let it be a stepping stone to your success story.

One-Legged Miss BumBum contestant poses for sexy shoot, reveals how she lost her leg | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 10:11 PM PDT

 A Brazilian Miss BumBum contestant, who lost her leg when she was run over by her jealous ex, has taken part in her first ever modelling shoot.

Rubia Machado made history when she became the first disabled entrant to take part in the world famous contest.The 29-year-old – who is representing her state of Tocantins ,said she was trying to "break prejudices" as she posed topless in just a black thong.


She said: "
It was difficult after what happened but I had to turn my life around and keep going.
"I am just as much of a woman as the other girls and I am trying to break prejudices."
She added: "I had never done a sexy shot before. I felt very sexy. This is a dream come true".
Rubia was left in a critical condition when she was run over by her vicious ex-boyfriend ten years ago.She recalled how her former lover drove straight at her and one of her legs was dragged under the car.

Doctors were forced to amputate her leg in order to save her life following the horror smash.


The model says she never got the justice she deserved because her ex was under the age of legal responsibility at the time of the attack.

She turned to fitness as she recovered to make herself as strong as possible and now has set her sights on the BumBum title.
"I want to teach people with disabilities that they should never give up, that they should trust themselves and focus on what they really want.
"You should look in the mirror and feel that you are perfect, that is what I have been doing since the accident."

JAY-Z has finally broken his silence on his fall out with former friend and rapper, Kanye West.

The rapper, 47, recently chatted with Rap Radar hosts Elliott Wilson and Brian "B.Dot" Miller to discuss his song "Kill Jay Z" in which he reportedly threw jibes at Kanye.He said

. "It's not even about a Kanye diss. It's not a diss, I'm talking to myself the whole time," JAY-Z said
In the single, he raps:
"I know people backstab you, I feel bad too/ But this 'f— everybody' attitude ain't natural/ But you ain't the same, this ain't KumbaYe/ But you got hurt because you did cool by 'Ye/ You gave him 20 million without blinkin'/ He gave you 20 minutes on stage, f— was he thinkin'?/ 'F— wrong with everybody?' is what you sayin'/ But if everybody's crazy, you're the one that's insane."
During his Rap Radar sit-down, JAY-Z continued,
 "I'm not talking about Kanye when I say, 'You dropped out of school, you lost your principles,' I'm talking about me!
"You got hurt, because this guy was talking about you on a stage," JAY-Z said referencing West's infamous Sacramento concert rant last year. "But what really hurt me, you can't bring my kid or my wife into it. … We've gotten past bigger issues, but you brought my family into it, now it's a problem with me."

 "You know it's a problem because me and him would have been talked about it, been resolved our issues. And he knows crossed the line. He knows. And I know he knows. 'Cause we've never let this much space go between one of our disagreements and we've had many. That's part of who we are."
At the November 2016 show, West called out Bey and Jay saying

"I went down seven years on behalf of you. Beyoncé, I was hurt because I hear that you said you wouldn't perform unless you won Video of the Year over me and over 'Hotline Bling,'In my opinion — now don't go dissing Beyoncé, she's great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. We are all equal. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are just to win."

Two Nigerians arrested after clearing American couple’s $120,000 retirement fund | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 02:31 PM PDT

 Two Nigerian residents of the United States, Messrs Temilade Adekunle and Abdulrasheed Yusuf, have been arrested on suspicion of forgery, ID theft and communications fraud.

Their victims are American couple, Steve and Andrea Voss. The money allegedly stolen from them was their retirement fund.


According to Mrs. Andrea Voss, one of her lifelong goals was to see different parts of the country, including Hawaii. "That's been my one dream," she said. "I really want to go there."

Andrea and her husband, Steve Voss, are a year and a half into their retirement, local TV station, KSL, reports.

Last week, they took a trip to Yellowstone, but when they got back on Friday, August 11, they noticed there was a serious issue with the money they've saved for retirement.

"I was curious because the market was doing well this past week and I said, 'What's that at?'" Steve Voss said. "And I logged into my account and it's a zero-dollar balance."

Added Andrea Voss,
 "He told me and I was like, 'You've got to be kidding. This can't happen to me. This happens to other people.'"
Steve Voss says someone had used his personal details to liquidate their account. The check had already gone out.

"The package has been sent but redirected from my home for pickup somewhere else," he said.

Unified police said the package hadn't been picked up yet, so they set up a plan to be there when someone came to get it.

Eventually, police said two men showed up to get the package. Police said they followed the two and pulled them over. They said the men had fake out-of-state IDs and a separate 401(k) check from another person.

A 401(k) is a retirement savings plan sponsored by an employer. It lets workers save and invest a piece of their paycheck before taxes are taken out. Taxes aren't paid until the money is withdrawn from the account.

Unified police detective Shawn Fausett said all credit is due to the Vosses for checking their account.

"In reality, this whole case is hinged upon Mr. Voss checking his balance," Fausett said. "If he wouldn't have checked his balance until (Monday) morning at 9 a.m., it would have been too late because the suspects would have been gone."

Police identified the two suspects as Temilade Adekunle and Abdulrasheed Yusuf.

They arrested the two for investigation of forgery, ID theft and communications fraud.

Police believe the two had flown into Salt Lake City to pick up the checks. Officials believe the men were getting ready to leave town again.

Police are also looking into whether or not other people in the area may have had similar experience.

The total amount between these two checks, police say, was around $120,000.

"That money would have gone to the suspects," Fausett said, "but the victims actually are losing more because the 401(k)s were cashed out early, and they had penalty taxes and so forth, so the victims themselves are probably out $150,000 if the checks are actually cashed."

Now, the Vosses are extra careful and they hope others will keep an eye out as well.

"People typically don't check their 401(k)s until they get a statement in the mail," Steve Voss said. "Get online and check your 401(k) at least once a week."

Man sues Tinder date for $200k after she made his life ‘a nightmare’ | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 02:31 PM PDT

A Texas man is seeking thousands in damages from a former Tinder flame he claims spread lies about him and ultimately cost him his job.

"I feel terrible," Joseph Lazarus told the Houston Chronicle. "I feel like I'm living in a nightmare I can't escape."
In a defamation suit filed by his attorney, Joseph Matthew, the 32-year-old Marine Corps officer is seeking $200,000 from a woman he met through the dating app in 2014.

The pair's relationship lasted several months after which Lazarus went on to end the relationship, claiming they simply didn't hit off. She wanted to remain friends, but everything took a turn when he didn't.

She allegedly sent a series of menacing text messages — including one in which she allegedly said she'd accuse him of rape if he didn't pay her $10,000, promising to stop once she got the funds.

The threats continued into 2016, and Lazarus was eventually dismissed from his job at a luxury car enterprise because his boss spotted a concerning post on the user-submitted gossip site, thedirty.com. His employer told him he could not risk the company's reputation over the harsh and illicit words written about Lazarus.

Titled "Joseph Lazarus is trash," the post describes him as "creepy" and "a guy who would have sex/rape fat chick just to amuse his friends."

The documents filed Wednesday were also paired with text messages the woman sent to Lazarus' friends, claiming he would buy her dildos instead of flowers and that he was a "rapist, cheating liar."

"I don't know what she's talking about," he told the Chronicle. "I certainly didn't mail her any sex toys."

His attorney said he's taken more than a dozen revenge porn cases, but that it was the first time the alleged victim was a man.

"There's no way Joe Lazarus can defend himself against these baseless allegations," Everybody has the right to be left alone. That's all Joe Lazarus is asking, it to be left alone.Matthew told the newspaper.

Assault Case: S/Africa grants Grace Mugabe immunity | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 02:31 PM PDT

South Africa has granted diplomatic immunity to Zimbabwe's first lady, Grace Mugabe, allowing her to return to Harare and avoid prosecution for the alleged assault of a 20-year-old model, Reuters has reported quoting a security source.
A security source said immunity had been granted.


The source also said Grace Mugabe failed to turn up at a Johannesburg court hearing on Tuesday because of concerns she could be attacked.

Engels' mother Debbie, who released photographs of her daughter with gashes to her head requiring 14 stitches, said it would be "very sad" if Grace Mugabe was allowed to leave.

However, her daughter's legal team  which includes Gerrie Nel, the prosecutor who secured a murder conviction against Olympic and Paralympic track star Oscar Pistorius — would counter such a move, she said.

"Gerrie Nel and the team have contingency plans," she told Reuters, without elaborating. "They will run with it."

Afriforum, an Afrikaans rights group that Nel joined in January after quitting as a state prosecutor, said it would be illegal for Pretoria to give Mugabe immunity and branded the plans a "disgrace".

"The government has two responsibilities: one, to protect its own citizens and two, to act according to the law. And the granting of diplomatic immunity would transgress the law," chief executive Kallie Kriel said.

Harare has made no official comment on the saga and requests for comment from Zimbabwean government officials have gone unanswered. The South African government has restricted all official comment to the police ministry.

U.S. tourist celebrating his first wedding anniversary killed in Barcelona terror attack | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 02:01 PM PDT

Jared Tucker, a swimming pool installer who visited Barcelona on a one-year wedding anniversary trip with his wife, is among the dead in the city's horrific terror attack, his father told the Daily News.

"We just got the text — Jared's body was identified at the morgue by his wife," grieving dad Daniel Tucker, 76, told the Daily News, his voice cracking with emotion.

"It's just something we really just don't understand. I don't know what else to say."
"Everybody loved him. He's been a partner working with me since he was 16 years old. We have a pool business, and he's been right there the whole time. All our customers love him. All people love him," he added.
 He said Jared, 42, and wife Heidi Nunes, 40, traveled to Europe to celebrate their one-year wedding anniversary.

"It was their first big trip together, the first time they went to Europe," he said. "But Jared dropped out of sight right after the terror attack. They were doing everything to find him. We got a lot of people involved to see if they could find him. There were no reports until this morning. She was taken over to the consulate."

Where is the Donald I called friend? Russell Simmons pens open letter to Donald Trump | Mr Olumide's Blog

Posted: 18 Aug 2017 01:26 PM PDT

Dear President Trump,

Remember when, from the behind the scenes, you strategically helped Rima Fakih win the Miss USA pageant, making her the first Muslim woman to ever wear the crown? Remember how influential you were to crowning Leila Lopez from Angola, who is black, as Miss Universe?

 Do you remember me introducing you to the beautiful black supermodel Kara Young? You were smitten with her, dated publicly and bragged about how wonderful she is in numerous interviews.


Do you remember all of your New York Jewish and African-American friends you probably spent more time hanging out with than all the WASPs you could find? Do you remember making sure Jews who were turned away at other country clubs had an open door policy at Mar-a-lago?

Do you remember that guy? I do. That was the Donald I called friend. That is the Donald I know. Where is he now? I have to believe he is still in there, somewhere.

The yogis say that life's journey is inward and we grow into the self by struggle and obstacles placed before us, and that they are only there to speed up our inevitable evolution, toward our connection to God or the higher self.

All the turmoil surrounding your time in office is a test. It can be used for good or used for evil. You can ace it or fail it. It can push you toward being a smarter, more evolved and more self-aware version of yourself or be used to destroy you and the people you took an oath to serve. There is a ticking clock over your head, and the fate of the nation and maybe the world has already been severely altered by you.

The trouble is, time is running out. It takes but a second for disaster to strike. Remember Rwanda? As I assume you know, it was started by extreme Hutu nationalists in the capital of Kigali and soon before anyone could stop it, the genocide spread throughout the country with staggering speed and brutality. Previously law-abiding citizens were incited and encouraged by local officials and the Hutu Power government to turn on their neighbors. Sound familiar?

Or what about the lost second that was a mere five years between when the concentration camps of Auschwitz were established to when Hitler took his own life? Or who can forget the widespread ethnic cleansing that accompanied the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina from 1992 to 1995?

None of these experiences should be ignored. It is time you take responsibility for your role in inciting this violence. Your time in office has dramatically heightened tensions and damaged our democracy.

Is this the legacy you want to leave behind? Your children's legacy and your grandchildren's legacy? On the road you are on, old friend, the Trump name will come to be regarded in American history as a wannabe dictator who surrounded himself with bigots, white supremacists and money-hungry wolves.


If you do not change your course immediately, you will go down in history as the great divider, the destroyer of the environment and the embodiment of everything we as Americans have fought so hard to call ours. You have put in place many people whose mere presence is racially charged. Others who are there only to empower the rich at the expense of the poor.

Everyone has darkness in them and everyone has light. For all of us, this is a constant battle — but the one who wins is the one we feed. You can begin to feed the light. The racist, bigoted movements you are feeding now are gaining power by your words, actions and refusal to hold people accountable for the destruction they are causing in your name.

Racial tensions are rising, as is the Resistance. Their clashes have just begun and there have already been casualties such as Heather Heyer on your watch. Tensions are only going to reach more of a crescendo and more blood will be shed. And the people will blame you, and rightfully so. There are not two sides to a Nazi or a white supremacist, Donald, and you know damn well what you said on Tuesday was horrendous.

The good news for you is you are still in office. You can turn this around. You can beat down racists and bigots, you can stop putting money into coal, stop destroying our environment, stop worsening climate change by empowering the factory farming industry.

And for the love of all that's sacred, you can stop tweeting threats to North Korea that may get us all into a nuclear war. You can find your highest self. You can become conscious. Scripture tells us the Donald I knew — or an even greater Donald — is still there inside you, sleeping. It is time to wake him the f--- up.

Simmons is co-founder of RushCard and Def Jam Records and founder of Phat Farm.
