Blogging as a profession over the years has evolved in the way it used to be done.Every business owner who’s ever hosted a blog has experienced the frustration of trying to gain readership.Most people have given up on blogging due to low traffic but I will advice you to remain consistent and learn new ways of driving traffic to your blog. 1. write more. Studies demonstrate that the all the more you update your blog, the more traffic it will get. Google gives higher need to sites with new articles,contents stories etc. So in other to get more traffic to your blog update it often like a minimum of five times a week. 2. Promote with social media. Share each new blog post across your social media networks, including Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, Google+ and Pinterest. If you spend time cultivating your networks and share great content, social media sites can become some of your top traffic sources.This is proven and tested . 3.Guest Blogging. One of the best sources of high quality traffic is Guest Blogging, if you haven’t heard of blogging yet, you have been living under a rock! Blogs are websites on which experts discuss topics in a casual, essay-like format. Guest blogging is when a blogger like you writes an article on another blog. That’s Free Traffic from Other People’s Blogs! 4.Compose better titles. The titles for your blog posts are more vital than the substance itself. That is on account of titles enable potential visitors and users to choose whether they should click and read more. Focus on the article titles you see on magazine covers. They lure readers with promises and solutions. When you do likewise, your readership will experience a large increase. 5. Have a niche. While you may be interested in football, exotic travel destinations, Little League baseball,romance stories and weight loss, you’ll confuse your audience if your content doesn’t follow a clear pattern. Decide who your target audience is, what they want to read and what specific messages you want to convey. 6.Include photos in your blog Studies have shown that photos in blog posts boost readership. Not only does a photo make the post look more appealing and interesting, but you can also include keywords in the Alt Image tag on the photo, boosting search engine optimization (SEO) for your site. Keep in mind that you can’t just pull any photo from Google because you risk violating copyright laws. When you pull photos on google or any site always remember to ask for permissions too. 7.Avoid Plagiarism what is plagiarism? the practice of taking someone else’s work or ideas and passing them off as one’s own.Its one of the things that can kill blog traffic.Your post may not appear on google top searches.People may have read the content you plagiarized somewhere else and see no need to read it again on your blog. 6.Make use of keywords Speaking of SEO, keywords are at the heart of SEO. One of the easiest and simpliest ways to generate more traffic to your website is to ensure that every page on your site has a keyword strategy. So for each blog post you write, choose one key phrase that you believe readers would use to find that post. Next, insert that phrase into the title of the post, the headline on the page, within the content on the page at least two times, in a featured image on the page and also as part of the page link. Keyword concentration helps Google understand what that page is about, which can ultimately lead to more traffic from the search engines. Note-keywords do not refer to single words. 7. Include links. When you mention another company’s product or service in a blog post, include a link to that company’s page because Google likes to see outbound links on your site Plus, readers appreciate it when you provide resources to make it easier for them to find the things they’re looking for. 8. Invite guest authors When others write for your blog, you add more content that you didn’t have to write yourself. As a bonus, those authors will also share with their followers and may ask you to write for them, opening up new readership avenues for you. 9.Make use of forum Forum are a great source of driving traffics to your website/blog ,You should make use of large forums like naijadailies,Nairaland and reddit etc. 10.

Religion / Recognition Of Jerusalem As Israel’s Capital Will Cause War-palestine President by acupikin: 8:25am On Dec 07, 2017 |
Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital will lead to ‘endless religious war,’ Palestinian president says JERUSALEM—Fresh anger poured in from across the Muslim world Wednesday as President Donald Trump said theUnited States recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, a move that Arab and European leaders have warned could spark violence and destroy any hopes of reviving the Mideast peace process. Israel responded with satisfaction to the president’s announcement, in which Trump also said he was setting in motion the process of moving the American Embassy from Tel Aviv. In a show of appreciation, the Jerusalem municipality projected the American and Israeli flags onto the walls of the Old City, home to important Jewish, Muslim and Christian holy sites. Yet even as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised Trump’s declaration as “courageous and just,” Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas slammed the “destruction of all the efforts to achieve peace.” Ahead of the announcement, U.S. allies in the Middle East and Europe had urged Trump to refrain from taking steps they fear could ignite unrest across the region. Jerusalem’s status is one of the most sensitive and inflammatory issues fuelling the Israel-Palestinian conflict. Israel claims the city in entirety as its capital; Palestinians want the eastern sector to be the seat of government for a future state. In a White House address, Trump called his decision “overdue” and in America’s best interests. “This is nothing more or less than the recognition of reality,” he said. The president made no reference to signing a waiver that officials said he would sign delaying any move of the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem. Establishing a Jerusalem embassy was a major campaign promise of Trump’s and one that officials said he had focused on in discussions with top advisers in recent weeks. The waiver means there will be no embassy move for at least another six months. Trump’s recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital will lead to ‘endless religious war,’ Palestinian president says Instead, Trump stressed that he directed the State Department begin the process of moving the embassy as required by U.S. law, however many years that might take. After his speech, he signed a proclamation to that effect. Trump’s declaration of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital is a powerful symbolic step. The U.S. has never endorsed the Jewish state’s claim of sovereignty over any part of Jerusalem and has seen the city’s future as indelibly linked to a comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace agreement. Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, has been trying to restart a new peace process. UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, speaking from New York after the address, said Jerusalem’s status was an issue to be decided through negotiations. “In this moment of great anxiety, I want to make it clear there is no alternative to the two-state solution,” he said, referring to a broad international consensus supporting side-by-side Israeli and Palestinian states. At the Vatican, Pope Francis prayed that Jerusalem’s status quo would be preserved to avoid adding new tension to a world “already shaken and scarred by many cruel conflicts.” Leaders from Britain, France, Germany and Italy joined in the chorus of criticism for Trump’s decision. French President Emmanuel Macron called the U.S. move “regrettable.” British Prime Minister Theresa May said she intended to speak with Trump and express concerns. Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, meeting in the Turkish capital with Jordan’s King Abdullah II, said the president’s stance would provide a boost for terrorist groups. The leaders plan to convene extraordinary meetings of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation and the Arab League in the coming days to discuss the region’s response to the U.S. moves. Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu says the whole world opposes U.S. President Donald Trump's move to recognize Jerusalem as Israel's capital and move the U.S. Embassy there. Cavusoglu commented before meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson. (The Associated Press) Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the U.S. consulate in Istanbul, according to live footage from Turkey’s state-run TRT television. Erdogan threatened this week to cut ties with Israel if Trump went ahead, calling Jerusalem a “red line” for Muslims. Ahmed Aboul Gheit, the Arab League’s secretary-general, said he was surprised that the U.S. administration would “get involved in an unjustified provocation of the feelings of 360 million Arabs and 1.5 billion Muslims to please Israel.” The status of Israel is one of the few issues that unites leaders in a part of the world riven by war and sectarian divides. Archrivals Saudi Arabia and Iran, which are engaged in deadly proxy conflicts in Yemen and Syria, have offered some of the harshest commentary about Trump’s plan in recent days. Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, told a gathering of Iranian officials Wednesday that “without a doubt, the Islamic world will resist this conspiracy . . . and beloved Palestine will finally be freed,” the semi-official Fars news agency reported. Palestinians, already discouraged over what they describe as a consistently pro-Israel stance by the U.S., said Trump’s decision essentially killed any remaining peace hopes. Leaders called for three “days of rage” culminating after Friday prayers. Although protests in the West Bank were muted Wednesday, in part because of the cold weather and rain, hundreds took to the streets in the Gaza Strip, chanting angry slogans against the U.S. and Israel, and burning the flags of both countries. “Trump has just declared the end of the two-state solution,” said Tahrir Aloumor, 36, who joined a demonstration in the Jabaliya refugee camp. “Shame on you, Trump.” International backing for Trump’s plan was almost nonexistent, but Israeli media reports on Wednesday cited at least one leader who is on board with the president’s move: Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte, who is denounced by human rights groups and many Western governments for a deadly anti-drug campaign. Israel’s Channel One reported that Duterte expressed interest in moving his country’s embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem. The Trump administration has opted against an earlier plan of converting the existing U.S. Consulate in Jerusalem to an embassy, said a non-governmental expert on the Middle East who consults regularly with the White House. Instead, it’s looking to construct an entirely new facility over the long term and a U.S. team is examining prospective sites in Jerusalem, said the individual, who wasn’t authorized to disclose private conversations with U.S. officials and requested anonymity. http://www.metrodailies.com/worldnews/trumps-recognition-jerusalem-israels-capital/ |

Politics / Atiku Will Speak At PDP National Convention On Saturday by acupikin: 6:48am On Dec 07, 2017 |
Atiku will speak at PDP national convention on saturday December 7, 2017 adminNewsNo Comment on Atiku will speak at PDP national convention on saturday Atiku will speak at PDP national convention on saturday The Peoples Democratic Party has said former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar won’t vote at its December 9 national tradition, which holds at the Eagle Square, Abuja. It says this is as result of the arrangement of the party’s constitution that deals with new memebers In any case, the gathering said Atiku would be permitted to speak at the convention. The Publicity Secretary of the National Caretaker Committee of the PDP, Dayo Adeyeye, who spoke to journalist at a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday, said the party’s constitution ought to be used as a guide on the issue. “You should simply get the constitution of the party and see whether Atiku is qualified to vote or not,” Adeyeye stated. At the point when pressed further, he stated, “First of all, I can tell you that we are happy with Atiku coming back to the PDP. It is very exciting for all of us. It is exceptionally energizing for every one of us. It is a good omen to everyone in the PDP. Atiku a founding father “He was one of thefounding fathers, one of the individuals who assembled this party and he is returning home. His room was never possessed, so we have opened it for him. “He will be part of the convention. He will even make a speech at the convention yet he may not vote. Chapter 2 (Part 1) of the party’s constitution deals with admission of members into the party. On Procedure for rejoining, Sections 8 and 9 explain, “A person, who desires to rejoin the party after leaving it shall apply to his Ward Secretary for re-admission; and unless given a waiver by the National Working Committee, he willbe placed on probation for a period of not less than one year. “Subject to the provision of Section 8(b), a member on probation shall have the right to attend all meetings of the party, but shall not be entitled to vote at such meetings, nor shall he be eligible to contest elective office on the platform of the party.” One of our reporters learnt that the party is planning to amend the above sections of the constitution at the convention. The expected amendment will place returnees on six months probation before they could contest any position or be voted for. Atiku, who was founding member of the party, decamped to the All Progressives Congress in 2014, asserting that will be his last bus-stop However, he left the APC about a week ago, and returned to the PDP on Sunday. In the mean time, Adeyeye has asserted that some agents of the Federal Government were planing to disturb the party national convention He said the former ruling party had what he described as credible information that some overzealous elements in the government were planning to disrupt the convention. Expressing that there was nothing to demonstrate that President Muhammadu Buhari was part of the plot, the spokesman pleaded with the President to intervene and caution the unnamed aides. Adeyeye added, “They have been trying every effort but we are happy that we have no information that it is coming from the very top. “But some overzealous elements in the administration are bent on disrupting it. It is very credible information. They are doing everything possible to make sure that this convention is disrupted. “They are afraid that if the PDP should hold a successful convention, that their days in government are numbered. “By the time we hold this convention and our officers are elected and they take offices next year, there will be a floodgate of people even from the APC to the PDP. “This is credible information and that is why we are appealing to President Buhari to please rein in his aides. We have evidence that the President is aware of this. “It is happening and we are calling on him to do his own investigation and to call those who are trying to cause this problem to desist because it is capable not only of destroying this democracy but also capable of destroying the country.” In another development, the Chairman of the Convention Planning Committee, who is also the Governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, has summoned all the 37 state chairmen of the party to an emergency meeting. The meeting, which will hold in Abuja on Friday, it was gathered, would enable Okowa to discuss the delegates’ list. There are rumours that some persons are planning to tamper with the list. Adeyeye, however, said there was no truth in the allegation, stating that the list would be made available to each aspirant at least 48 hours before the convention. Secondus, Adeniran, George, others must face delegates –BoT Also, the Board of Trustees of the PDP said all the eight national chairmanship aspirants of the party must be allowed to test their popularity at the national convention on Saturday. It stated that it would be impossible to zone the office of the national chairman of the party to any section of the country. The Chairman of the BoT, Senator Walid Jibrin, stated this at a press briefing in Abuja on Wednesday. Jibrin stressed that all the nine chairmanship aspirants should be allowed to face the delegates, who, he reckoned, would determine who to choose. Those who have indicated their interest to run for the office of the national chairman are Olabode George, Uche Secondus, Gbenga Daniel, Jimi Agbaje, Rashidi Ladoja, Taoheed Adedoja, Tunde Adeniran, Raymond Dokpesi and Segun Adeyemi. Some of the aspirants were screened by a committee, headed by a former PDP governorship candidate in Edo State, Mr. Osagie Ize-Iyamu, in Abuja on Wednesday. Out of the nine aspirants, only two are not from the South-West. They are Secondus and Dokpesi, who are from the South-South. Jibrin added, “The BoT believes that it is too late to micro-zone the position of national chairman after more than eight aspirants have purchased the forms and are right now about to be screened by the Special Screening Committee. “They should be allowed to test their fame through the election that is about to start on December 9-10. “I want to assure our party members that whoever emerges as the national chairman, the BoT is ready to cooperate and work with him for the progress of the party. I will like to reiterate our position that the BoT has not anointed any candidates for now.” He urged all contestants for different positions to develop the spirit of give and take, adding that they should accept the verdict of the delegates. “They should all accept whoever emerges as the national chairman. They should continue to remain loyal to the party and accept that power comes from God. He gives it to whom He likes and takes it away from whom he likes and gives to whom he likes,” he stated. Jibrin said the APC should be grateful to former ex-Vice-President Atiku for not tearing his membership card while leaving the ruling party for the PDP. He said this was not so with former President Olusegun Obasanjo, who he said tore his PDP card when he left the former ruling party. The BoT chairman urged others who defected from the PDP to the APC to return to the main opposition party. Those he mentioned include the President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki; and a former Governor of Kano State, Senator Musa Kwankwaso. Jibrin said, “As the party joyfully welcomes Atiku back to his home, the PDP, we are waiting to receive more members of the APC, including Kwankwaso, Senators, members of the House of Representatives, President of the Senate, Senator Bukola Saraki, APC governors who had earlier left the PDP. Thereafter, all of us will unite to take power from the APC come 2019.” He also commended the judiciary for saving Nigeria and “democracy by coming with the Supreme Court judgment” that sacked Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as the PDP national chairman. Wike, govs backing Secondus for selfish reasons –Oyelese In a similar vein, a former Minister of Mines and Steel and chieftain of the PDP, Mr. Wole Oyelese, has said the Rivers State Governor, Mr. Nyesom Wike, and some PDP governors backing Secondus to emerge as the party’s national chairman are doing so for selfish reasons. He warned the party leaders and delegates against falling into the trap of Wike and other governors by ‘imposing’ Secondus as the PDP chairman, adding that doing so would lead the party into a “disastrous crisis.” Oyelese, who said this in a statement on Wednesday, noted that “Secondus leading the party is certainly a disaster in waiting to happen.” He urged the delegates to help the party to avoid the disaster. Oyelese added, “I will not expect anybody that loves the PDP to support Secondus because of his past record but there is a difference between loving the party and being selfish. “Wike wants to build a political empire using the PDP as a platform, hence his support for Secondus. Some governors, who are also afraid of their shadows, believe that they cannot manipulate Chief Bode George and believe Secondus could easily be manipulated. “Wike and the other governors are unnecessarily anxious. They are not thinking about the future of the party. They should know that there is no room for experiment.” Oyelese also appealed to the PDP leaders in the South-South to see Nigeria as a country that must be united and not divided along any ethnic lines. Speaking about the claim by Secondus that he had the best record among those aspiring for the office of national chairman, Oyelese challenged him to come out with details of his achievements. He said as the organising secretary of the party, Secondus caused more division in the Oyo State PDP when he allegedly accepted three different results from three different groups during a congress. He said in 2014, he allegedly imposed an unpopular candidate in the governorship election in Oyo State, leading to the PDP’s failure at the poll. “Is that the kind of man that will lead a great party like the PDP or any other party for that matter? Anybody that could be so compromised should not be the chairman of PDP,” he said. Meanwhile, a group within the party, the PDP Committee for Justice and Fairness, has called for the immediate removal of Dr. Sunday Onor, who has been nominated as the Secretary of the Convention Electoral Committee. The group, in a statement on Wednesday and signed by its Chairman, Etim Nsikak, said Onor, who joined the party two months ago, “is an ally of Governor Nyesom Wike, who is openly backing Secondus for the chairmanship position.” It added, “It is obvious why the secretary of a critical committee and its chairman are Wike’s allies. How do we get fairness and justice form such a committee?” source-http://www.metrodailies.com/atiku-speak-pdp-national-convention/ |

Education / Reps Hail Crippled Beggar Turned Lawyer And Oau’s Record-breaker by acupikin: 7:29am On Dec 06, 2017 |
The House of Representatives on Tuesday praised former physically-challenged Lagos beggar Mr. Abdulsalam Kamaldeen, and Miss Aarinola Olaiya, for their Academic accomplishments. While Kamaldeen conquered his physical challenge as a crippled beggar to graduate, Olaiya was regarded by the Olaiya was honoured by the House for the rare academic feat of being the first medical student to graduate with distinction in Surgery at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, since 1989. Kamaldeen, 38, whose story was first reported in The PUNCH a few years back, and Olaiya, 24, got an overwhelming applause from legislators amid the entire of the House in Abuja. This came after individuals had talked about a movement moved by the Leader of the House, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila, to celebrate the two youthful Nigerians. The Speaker, Mr. Yakubu Dogara, left his chair at the enclosed section of the chambers to meet Kamaldeen and Olaiya where they were seated to shake hands with them. Other lawmakers joined Dogara in clapping for the two in appreciation of their excellence. Talking prior, Gbajabiamila reviewed Kamaldeen's wretched story, including how he became afflicted with poliomyelitis at the young age of three. He included, "Kamaldeen, 38, lost his two legs to polio at the young age of three; lost his mom at four years old; and began elementary school at eight. He started street begging to raise money to buy school uniforms, books and to feed. "Kamaldeen begged for alms through ; referred to in the city of Lagos as beggar; and slept under the Idumota Bridge for several years before saving money he gathered from commuters to rent a room. “From street begging, he bought a GCE form in 2002; passed his GCE and JAMB examinations and was subsequently admitted to study Political Science at the University of Lagos. "He sat for another WAEC and JAMB examinations while planning to complete his first degree in Political Science. In his dream to end up a lawyer, Kamaldeen gained admission to study Law at the University of Lagos in 2010. He went to the Nigerian Law School in 2015 and was called to the Nigerian Bar on 30 November, 2016.”" For Olaiya, the House leader said she produced a unique result. He stated, “Miss Aarinola Olaiya, 24, was admitted into the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Osun State, to study Medicine and Surgery in 2011; she scored an excellent Cumulative Grade Point (CGPA) of 4.74 in her first year. “Subsequently, in her second through sixth year, scored: Distinctions in Anatomy, Medical Biochemistry and Physiology (200 Level); Distinctions in Medical Biochemistry and Pharmacology (300L); Distinctions in Pathology and Pharmacology (400L); Distinctions in Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Mental Health and Dermatology (500L); and Distinction in Surgery (600L). “The achievement was elusive for a period of 28 years in OAU/Nigerian medicine and community health.” Gbajabiamila described Kamaldeen and Olaiya as Nigerians of “humble background,” who fought all odds to achieve greatness. The leader noted that Kamaldeen’s case struck him deeply when he first heard his story. He added, “His story is amazing, sad, as it is also inspiring. Going through Law School for able-bodied men is tough, let alone for a cripple. “Despite the circumstances of his life, he chose to work hard to make a name for himself. “He did not attempt to go into crime or opt to cross the Mediterranean in the hope to go to Europe.” Contributing to the debate, a member from Plateau State, Mr. Edward Pwajok, SAN, said he prayed for Kamaldeen to rise beyond the Nigerian Bar to the Nigerian Bench. Pwajok stated, “I celebrate these young Nigerians. Despite suffering from polio, today, Kamaldeen is called to the Nigerian Bar. “I see him rising beyond the Bar to the Nigerian Bench one day. I challenge young, able-bodied Nigerians to learn from these two graduates, especially Kamaldeen.” On his part, the Deputy Speaker of the House, Mr. Yussuff Lasun, said the lesson to all young Nigerians was that the “best way to go is to be hard-working.” Summing up the debate, Dogara asked Kamaldeen and Olaiya to do more. “You still have to do more through dedication and discipline. This recognition by the House should spur you on for more achievements,” he added. Both Olaiya and Kamaldeen were elated and thankful as they reacted to the gesture of the House. Olaiya said she was so happy because while in school, she never knew she would be this celebrated. She stated, “I am happy, very happy. While I was in Medical School, I was just working hard but I didn’t know that a day like this would come. “I appreciate the House and the Leader, Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila, for what has happened today. “I like the lawmakers and I hope to be like one of them one day. I will still have to go for further studies.” Kamaldeen also said disability should not be allowed to become a hindrance to success. “The reality of life is that life itself is a competition. No matter your condition, you must compete and compete favourably,” he said. Olaiya’s mother, Felicia, gave a piece of advice to parents, “Send your girls to school. They must go to school.” source-http://www.metrodailies.com/reps-hail-crippled-beggar/ 1 Like 1 Share |

Sports / FG Budgets N3 Billion For Super Eagles For 2018 World Cup by acupikin: 5:48pm On Dec 05, 2017 |
The Federal Government has planned N3bn to empower the Super Eagles to have have a successful outing at the 2018 World Cup 2018 which begins on June 14 in Russia. The Minister of Youths and Sports, Mr. Solomon Dalung, udisclosed this to State House correspondents after a closed-door meeting he had with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Tuesday. Dalung said while sponsors and partners would raise part of the money, the substantial part of the “conservative budget” would be provided by the Federal Government. "We have a preservationist spending plan of about N3bn however out of that N3bn, FIFA will raise about N900m; our sponsors and partners are likewise going to raise N600m. Government will moderately raise about N2bn or N2.5bn to complement," the minister said. He said plans were in progress to guarantee that the players get their allowance latest by March 2018. "One of the difficulties we have been facing in sports administration is the welfare of the players and the officiating team and we plan to set a new approach to deal with the topic of welfare. “By March, we intend to start paying the players their allowances, camping allowances upfront. That will go a long way to boost the morale of the players and their confidence too. "The new strategy for administration in football has taken the pattern of change We will likewise guarantee that there is solidarity inside the football family. “Unity, too, is a key factor going by some of the reports we had in the past where poor performances were attributable to lack of unity between the family, the technical team, the officials and the players. This time, unity has to be promoted. "finally, we will likewise guarantee that government makes funds available on time. That is the reason the budget has since been sent to the President for a unique intervention He said the government was comfortable with the group the team belong to despite the presence of Argentina. He stated,He said, “We are comfortable with the team because having tested Argentina which is a highly ranked team in the group, we can say confidently that with good work, good training, good welfare for the players and team spirit, we will top that group going by the disposition of our national team “After the groupings, Nigeria falls within Group D and we appear to be the underdog going by the ranking of the teams. “But I think ranking is more or less a paper job, what is very important is how you will perform and I believe that we are comfortable with the teams. “Some people have been arguing that Argentina did not present their best, but we also have some players we didn’t invite and we also intend to invite them. It is an issue that is going to be determined practically by the level of preparation of the Nigerian team. Don’t forget that the Nigerian team had enjoyed a formidable home support and they are inspired to deliver. “So we will engage in more friendlies to try and determine our strength and areas of improvement before the final competition.” Dalung said the government would mobilise a strong delegation that will support the team because of its belief that sports is an about number. source-http://www.metrodailies.com/federal-government-budgets/ 1 Like 2 Shares |

Celebrities / Davido Is Better Than Wizkid -opinion by acupikin: 7:20pm On Nov 26, 2017 |
His voice and personality Davido voice is one of a kind,distinctively flavored. His range and pitch are effective and effortless. His songs differentiates Afro-pop style from Western-hip-hop style and other kinds; and remains authentic. His Criticics are misguided and frivolous. Davido is just a beast !! It’s called talent !! It’s called being the best !! Anybody hating on his songs should go and download sense in Itunez or playstore. Firstly,They said he killed his 3 friends for winning multiple awards.He responded with FIA and they went mad.Wizkid and his clueless jealous fans called him frog voice and different names.Well,Frog voice with the most youtube subscribers,over 200 million views on YouTube,’IF’ alone is biggerthan wizkid”s all songs this year,even with Drake not coming closer to Wizkid”s Voice. With Yankee passport they said he’s local.The same local is winning international awards with frog voice while your internationsl kid won local awards.My Davido with back to back hits with frog voice,on a world tour with frog voice,got presiedential welcome with frog voice by gabon”s president,got presidential welcome with frog voice by rwanda president and his family. After all Wizkid and his naive fans failed attempts to bring davido down with their hatred and jealous,Davido finally put nail on wizkid and his fans coffins by wining the “Best African Act”worldwide at the 2017 MTV EMA all that with frog voice. Videos Davido is on another level his videos are mind-blowing,matured and the energy he puts in makes it really intersting to watch.Just check pout fall,fia and even the recent like that.Wizkid videos are so lacking in energy and vibes,maturity as if he doesn”t want to spend money on his videos or he doesn”t feel like doing them.Fall video alone is better than all wizkid videos put together. Final conclusion Wizkid is also a good musician,I even have some of his albums but for anyone to compare him to my davido that person is in for a long thing. Davido is better by far….. source-http://www.metrodailies.com/davido-better-wizkid-opinion/

Celebrities / A Leaked Video Of Rapper Cardi B Exposing Her Bare Boobs Surfaces Online(18+) by acupikin: 1:06pm On Nov 25, 2017 |
A leaked video of rapper Cardi B exposing her bare boobs has got people talking after it surfaced on the internet. In the video, the ‘Bodak Yellow’ rapper is seen dancing before raising up her bra and exposing her boobs in front of the camera. Watch video below; Here Belcalis Almanzar, or Cardi B, is known for her distinct Spanish accent and New York street slang. Born to a Trinidadian mother and Dominican father, she spent time between Highbridge, a Latino-majority neighborhood of South Bronx, and her grandmother’s apartment in Washington Heights. Although her parents split when she was a preteen, she grew up with 36 cousins and a dad’s side of the family that loved to joke. “I have real good parents, they poor. They have regular, poor jobs and what not,” she said in an interview with Global Grind. “They real good people and what not, I was just raised in a bad society.” Cardi B said working as a stripper for 4 years “saved her life.” Cardi began working as a stripper at 19 after getting fired from her previous job as a cashier. She started at local strip clubs and later worked her way to more lucrative spots in Manhattan. Through stripping, she was able to earn enough money to become financially independent — enough so, she moved out of her abusive boyfriend’s place. “There was two pit bulls in that house, and I had asthma. There was bedbugs, too,” she told Vibe. “On top of that, I felt like my ex-boyfriend was cheating on me, but it was like even if he was cheating on me, I still can’t leave because—where was I gonna go?” Cardi B’s hilarious Vines and videos went viral and she became an Internet celeb. While she was still working as a stripper, Cardi B began her ascent into Internet fame. Her charisma attracted an initial social media following of three thousand strip club regulars, bartenders and “little drug dealers and scammers” who though she was “hot,” according to Fader. On her account, the rapper didn’t shy away from candidly discussing sex, men and making money — leading to multiple viral videos on Vine, Instagram and Twitter. “You know people be asking me like, ‘what do you does?’ Like, ‘are you a model? Are you like a comedian or something?’ Nah I ain’t none of that. I’m a hoe, I’m a stripper hoe. I’m about this shmoney,” she said in one of her most viral videos. She then quit stripping to make money hosting club events as an Instagram influencer. Her Instagram notoriety landed her a spot on the reality show Love & Hip Hop: New York. After taking social media by storm, Cardi B entered the reality star scene by appearing on season 6 of VH1’s hit, Love & Hip Hop: New York. Though she only stayed for two seasons, Cardi B is known for one of the most infamous feuds in the show, with the girlfriend of fellow cast member Swift. Her one liner from the show (“a girl have beef with me, she gonna have beef with me forever”) went viral, inspiring the song off her debut mixtape, ‘Foreva.’ After reality TV, she got serious about pursuing her music career. cc:lalsticlala,mynd44 To see video follow link-http://www.metrodailies.com/leaked-video-rapper-cardi-b/ |
