Celebrities / King Charles Orders Prince Harry And Meghan To Vacate UK Home by Featuredgist: 11:50pm On Mar 03, 2023
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been requested to vacate their residence at Frogmore Cottage,” the spokesperson said.
The statement followed a report in that claimed the pair were being evicted from the property, which is owned by the Crown Estate, and that it had since been offered to Prince Andrew, one of King Charles III’s brothers.
Buckingham Palace said Wednesday it would be offering no comment. A royal source told CNN that any such discussions would be a private family matter.
Prince Harry and Meghan now reside in the United States but had retained the early 19th-century property as their UK base. Gifted to the Sussexes by the late Queen Elizabeth II, the cottage is nestled in a corner of the Windsor estate, west of London.
They refurbished the property and moved in shortly before the arrival of their son Archie in May 2019. However, the renovation sparked controversy after the couple stepped back from public life and it emerged £2.4 million (about $3 million) of British taxpayers’ money had been used on the cottage’s refurbishments. They have since paid back the public money following their relocation to California.

Celebrities / Actress Debbi Shokoya Pregnant And Lost All To A Married Man by Featuredgist: 8:29pm On Feb 21, 2023
Actress Debbi Shokoya Pregnant And Lost All To A Married Man
Continuation: So I reached out to few people and few of Debbie friends, they all declined.
I found a way round it and send a neutral person to them and they were able to open their minds, apparently this guy has toasted all Debbie friends round, even as Debbie is pregnant he ask them out round,now the twist is they are all scared to tell Debbie because according to them this whole matter is not ordinary because it was since when This lukman took Debbie to a certain Alfa place that this whole saga started.
Yes Debbie was dating a Lukman as a married guy before but I don’t think she wanted to get married to LUKMAN, the friends went further to say they think there is more to it for Debbie to get pregnant for Lukman all of a sudden and the sudden introduction, they couldn’t confront Lukman because according to them he is fortified with alot of Alfa ( I have loads of voice notes as evidence) and they can’t also talk to Debbie as she seems lost and it’s anything that Lukman says she listen to, it was said that Lukman also compel her to be wearing hijab now that she is pregnant and also put out a press release that she is married and to a Muslim so that when this gist comes out people won’t drag her because according to Islam, he is entitled to marry 100 wives.
Debbie friends on seeing if they fight Lukman physically he might harm them so they came up with a plan, they opened a whatsapp group to delibrate on how to get hard core evidence as Lukman is also asking all of them out , they planned to trick him to an hotel and make video just to show Debbie maybe she will return back to her senses but they scattered the it.

A fast rising Yoruba actress and a talented one at that who is daughter of a pastor, Debbi Shokoya turns a home wrecker.
Last week I was chilling on this mark app ooo, fiam from no where I see proposal picture showing the head of a man and Debbie face alone, ahn ahn, Talo ni Ori, who get this head, I waka small again I see Asiwaju baby abi na ijakumo toyin dey call herself, she sef post ordinary head, I said No, I must find who get this head, na so I carryy two left leg again , I enter Biola Bayo page, luckily that one posted full video but still no face, it was there I began to suspect say, ANOTHER MARRIED MAN DOWN!!!
I was hoping it will not be so because Debbie is still a lady in her late twenties and should not settle for less but Alas I was wrong, she settled for less ooo.
I Sha made sure I found who the owner of the head is and it was there I got to know that the owner of the head is no other person than LUKMAN EJALONIBU ah, Lukman keh, this guy just got married recently now, he is one of the guy that works behind the scene for movies and he is one of Lado boys, so how come, I come say ontop this case, I must get to the root of it, before we know what is going on, Toyin and Biola wey post the proposal picture am don comot am sharp sharp for their page , ha, naso I carry my two left leg go interview some people for Lukman family and I got the truth and I have some videos to back them up.

The family interfered and they had to plan a small introduction to cover Debbie’s shame, now what got my attention is, my source reveals that apart from the fact that he wants to use Debbie, he is also a serial blackmailer, he takes videos of how he kisses Debbie, how he makes love to her and send some to his friends bragging that he is the one KNACKING THEIR FAVORITE CELEB, on some occasion Debbie caught him

Anambra Killer Cop and Organ Harvester (Victim): Meet Precious Chidalu Ihedimbu, cousin to Comedian Brain Jotter

She was strangled to death by Patrick and his cohort, take a seat and let me take you through the journey of how she was lured to their den.

She was lured from imo state to Anambra in a bid to arrest iron.

Patrick got somebody to disguise and chat precious that he is interested and want to date precious, they started talked, it grew to the level of throwing advances at her, from there, they sent her money for hair, money for food then they finally agreed to meet, she was sent money for transport as well and she agreed to meet the anonymous on the 13th of may 2022, on the said date she set out and Patrick agent was monitoring her movement, she called her host when she got to the park and that one was with her in the phone all through, When she arrived at the agreed place they planned to meet, Patrick sent another person to pick her up and was lodged in a hotel close to patricks house in Ngozika Estate by this same evil Patrick.
The name of the hotel is SPA LAVENDER inside Ngozika estate.
Patrick also lodged in the same hotel that night as he was having an affair with one of the hotel receptionist who goes by the name Miracle Orji.
The next morning Harrison Akama and another team came to pick up Precious quitely from the hotel to sars awkuzu, I am daring the hotel to release an unfiltered CCTV footage of 13th may 2022 and 14th may 2022.
When she got to Awkuzu SARS, they interrogated her about what she knows about her said boyfriend, she told them that her boyfriend is not an Esn member and they should allow her go, they refused, they took her two phones, one 1phone 6 and one Nokia torchlight, it was while going through her phone they discovered that she has 1.2m in her account , Patrick transfered the 1.2m in her account and gave the phone to Harrison,he also ransack the phone, it was him who discovered that Precious was related to brainjotter the comedian.

Gistlover to IGP: An Open Letter to the Inspector General of Police.
Dear Alkali Baba Usman, I appreciate you for looking into this ANAMBRA killing and organ trafficking issue swiftly, thank you for that.
Also, information reaching me is that you know SP princess on a personal ground, you were frequenting Anambra when you were the force secretary before you became the IGP and thereby got to know Princess and that’s why she is not shaken.
Dear Baba Usman I am telling you this for free that this case has gone beyond what can be swept under the carpet, the world is aware of these Killer cops and we are monitoring these case like our lives depends on it, please do not pull any strings, allow Justice take it full course, there and then we will all appreciate you and know you stand for Justice.
However, as for the panel being set up in Abuja, I think it’s a wrong and deliberate attempt to make most of the victims not come forward,Abuja might be too far for the victims family to easily access and bear witness considering the insecurity going on in Nigeria if one travel by bus,alot of the victims are the less privilege, they cannot afford to pay for flight to Abuja.
The panel should be set up in Anambra and headed by a neutral person, Awkuzu SARS also needs to be monitored closely, no unnecessary movement while the investigation is on going

The female in the organ harvesting group, meet SP Princess, the lady that controls ANAMBRA with her godforsaken private organ, she is a random SOURVENIR amongst politicians.
She’s a Superintendent of Police and she married a junior inspector of police, Officer Harrison Akama against police work ethics.

She warmed Arthur Eze and Willie Obiano beds in the past just to get ranks and connection in ANAMBRA even while still married to her first husband before he pursue that one come move to Harrison Akama who is a junior officer and also married before princess carry her puna come snatch Harrison.

She started an affair with on Inspector Harrison Akama serving in Awkuzu sars sometime in last year in order to solidify her relationship with SARS so as to continue all her illegalities.

The said Inspector Harrison Akama is the hit man of CSP Patrick Agbazue who is responsible of most of the extra judicial killings in anambra state.
SP Princess Nwode secretly married Inspector Harrison Akama in December against police regulations.
An SPO( Senior Police Officer) can NEVER marry a rank and file( ie from constable to Inspector rank) it amounts to instant dismissal, when she saw that she has gained entrance to Patrick through Harrison, she got Harrison Two brand new mikano trucks,
White and black, Harrison has since moved into Princess house and they go about bragging that they are untouchable, that’s how they come together to form a squad, once they get a Victim, they work hand in hand to make sure they achieve their illegal aim, princess who is the woman among them is used as their traps most times, they invade rich people houses , kidnap them and start calling their family for ransom, one thing is sure, it’s only 1 percent fo their victims that come out alive by the grace of God, the remaining 99 percent are missing forever , even the 1 percent.

He is the SARS COMMANDER in ANAMBRA, He is behind most of the kidnap cases, extortion and organ harvesting in ANAMBRA.

As I am about to take you through a journey of this evil boy atrocities, the only help I need from you all is to tag NIGERIA POLICE FORCE massively, we do not know his next target in Anamabra
There are people that were arrested and never came back.
They were all killed by CSP Patrick Agbazue and Inspector Harrison Akama who is Patrick hitman now Married to SPO Princess, Which is totally against the ethics of their job, @nigeriapoliceforce should look into it, They all came together to from a deadly squad and I will give details of how they operate below

Once Patrick and his team are set you during their parades , there is a possibility that you are not going home alive, it's in two categories, it's either he kills you for having enough money in your account and taking your vehicle and transferring all your money to a certain account or he kills you for not having any money at all, you see those two categories are the categories alot of people fall in, he has one popular habit, he has a room he takes his victims to , torture them and write a note for them ,he will make them confess to a crime they didn't commit before he and Harrison Akama kills and harvest their organ,
All the vehicle CSP Patrick is driving was taken from suspects he arrested and murdered in cold blood
Even the white camry spider he drove to work yesterday is owned by a Yahoo guy he murdered in cold blood,As of yesterday his accounts number, 2282966036, Zenith bank Agbazue Patrick Chukwuemeka has alot of millions in it With choice properties scattered all over Nigeria, a CSP that earns a little above 200k a month has all of this gathered together,New World Mortuary Nteje is where most of the bodies he kills are deposited with the help of one Hausa guy named Sanni, He does all the illegalities concerning the morgue for them, they are supposed to deposit dead bodies to a teaching hospital but due to the number of illegal killings on a daily they are using a private morge.

Politics / US Lawmakers Tells President Joe Biden To Stop The $1 Billion Nigeria Weapons De by Featuredgist: 11:14am On Feb 16, 2023
US Lawmakers Tells President Joe Biden To Stop The $1 Billion Nigeria Weapons Deal
Two members of the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee, Democrat Sara Jacobs of California and Republican Chris Smith of New Jersey, have written President Joe Biden to rescind a nearly $1 billion arms sale to Nigeria following Reuters reports on an illegal abortion programme and the targeted killing of children by the Nigerian military.
This was contained in a letter addressed to President Joe Biden that was jointly signed by the lawmakers, calling for a review of Nigeria’s security assistance and cooperation programmes, including a risk assessment of civilian casualties and abuses caused by arms assistance.
The Reuters series, “Nightmare in Nigeria,” sparked calls for the Nigerian government to investigate from the U.S. departments of state and defense, the German foreign ministry, the United Nations, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch. Human rights experts said the army’s actions could constitute war crimes.
The lawmakers, according to the letter, expressed their dissatisfaction with the facts stated in the Reuters report and stated that continuing with the nearly $1 billion arms sale with Nigeria would be highly inappropriate.
The letter reads: “We write to express our concern with current U.S. policy on and military support to Nigeria. Last month, Reuters completed a series of investigations into the Nigerian military’s conduct, which revealed an alleged secret mass forced abortion program since 2013 and apparent systemic targeted killings of children, in addition to a consistent record of human rights abuses and civilian casualties. Despite this, the United States recently approved a $997 million sale of 12 AH-1Z Attack Helicopters and related training and equipment to Nigeria.
“Over the last 20 years, the United States has had a significant security partnership with Nigeria, with more than $232 million in security assistance, $1.6 billion in foreign military sales, and $305 million in direct commercial sales.
“While the United States has paired its security assistance with training focused on international law compliance, humanitarian workers on the ground report that Nigeria’s security forces “appear to have a limited understanding of humanitarian law and tools for effective engagement with local populations.” Moreover, the assistance we have provided has done little to stem the conflict – in fact, insecurity has worsened from the abuses committed by Nigerian forces.
“On top of all of this, there continue to be reports of weapons captured by insurgents – weapons that the State Department and Defense Department have proven unable to sufficiently track.
“Therefore, we believe continuing to move forward with the nearly $1 billion arms sale would be highly inappropriate and we urge the Administration to rescind it. Given the recent reporting of Nigeria’s previously unknown mass forced abortion program – which allegedly ended at least 10,000 pregnancies – and the targeting of potentially thousands of children, we also urge a review of security assistance and cooperation programs in Nigeria to include a risk assessment of civilian casualties and abuses resulting from such assistance and whether such assistance has ever been diverted or had any significant positive effect on the conflict and violence in Nigeria.”

Celebrities / Awesome Show, Yetrihanna Did Not Get Paid For Her Super Bowl Performance by Featuredgist: 11:02am On Feb 16, 2023
Awesome Show, YetRihanna did not get paid for her Super Bowl performance
Sunday’s Super Bowl brought in around 113 million viewers who also took in Rihanna’s high-flying halftime show performance — but the “Umbrella” star wasn’t paid for her appearance.
“We do not pay the artists,” NFL spokesperson Joanna Hunter told Forbes in 2016. “We cover expenses and production costs.”
NFL’s vice president of communications Brian McCarthy clarified to Newsweek last year that headliners do get union scale, which is paid to the union then distributed to artists.
“There is not an appearance fee, but the artists are indeed paid union scale,” he said.
SAG-AFTRA, the union representing most performers might require a minimum of around $1,000 a day for a high-budget show like the Super Bowl, which would be a pittance to Rihanna who is worth around $1.4 billion, according to Newsweek.
Still, the show is a win-win for the NFL and the headliner, as record sales tend to skyrocket following such a high-profile performance.
Lady Gaga’s sales increased 1,000% after her 2017 show, Forbes reported.
While the NFL forks over a reported excess of $1 million for production costs, some artists have started reaching into their own pockets to make sure their show is exactly the way they want it.
Both The Weeknd and Dr. Dre spent around $7 million of their own money on their Super Bowls shows, Forbes reported.
“I get involved with every aspect of anything that I do,” Rihanna said at a press conference before the show last week. “Whether it’s the Super Bowl, whether it’s a makeup product, whether it’s Savage lingerie… I want to see the copy on the website. I want to name every lipstick that I make. If it flops or it flies, my name has to stand by that.”
Fox Business reached out to a rep for Rihanna to find out if she paid any of her own production costs.
Rihanna sang hits like “We Found Love,” “Only Girl (In the World)” and “Rude Boy” in a red jumpsuit that revealed her baby bump for the first time while being raised and lowered on a platform along with dozens of backup dancers during her show.

A new ocean is being formed in Africa. Geologists have confirmed that a new ocean is being created as the African continent is split in half. An international effort has revealed that a 35 miles long rift appeared in the Ethiopian deserts of the Far region in 2005 and is probably the start of a brand-new sea.
The recent study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, combines seismic data from the rift formation to demonstrate that it is driven by processes similar to those at the ocean’s bottom. The tectonic plates of Africa and Arabia collide in the desert and have been gradually separating for about 30 million years. The same motion has also split the Red Sea, but this is only happening at a rate of a fraction of an inch per year.
Soon humanity might have two motherlands. Africa’s 54 nations are being divided according to geologists researching the continent’s plate tectonics. The East African Rift, which separates eastern coastal countries like Kenya and Tanzania from most of the continent, passes across Mozambique from the Afar area of northern Ethiopia.
A new study in the journal Nature found that the two pieces of land are separating at a rate of 7 millimeters per year. Nations like Zambia and Uganda will have their own coastlines. Scientists claim that several currently active volcanoes along the river, including the Aloo Dalapila in Ethiopia and the Old wenyolangai in Tanzania, provide new insights into the process. In particular, the Erta Ale volcano in Ethiopia has been erupting nonstop for more than 50 years. The Victoria microplate, the biggest of its kind on Earth and tucked

Politics / Shettima Says Northerners Should Reject Atiku For Opposing Sharia Rule In Nigeri by Featuredgist: 11:10am On Feb 14, 2023
Shettima Says Northerners Should Reject Atiku For Opposing Sharia Rule In Nigeria

All Progressives Congress vice presidential candidate Kashim Shettima says northerners should ditch Atiku Abubakar for his opposition to the enactment of Sharia rule across the region.
Addressing party faithful at an APC local government conference in Abuja on Friday (February 10), Mr Shettima urged the northern voters to reject Mr Abubakar at the February 25 polls because he fought against the Islamic legal system in the North, Peoples Gazette reports.
“This person you call your own says you should not call him ‘Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, but rather Atiku Abubakar’,” Mr Shettima told his audience in the Hausa language. “Your person says he is the only person that fights against Sharia in the north. Is that your person?”
The APC vice presidential candidate’s remarks is his latest attempt to whip up ethno-religious rhetoric against the Peoples Democratic Party presidential candidate.
Peoples Gazette had recently reported how Mr Shettima, at Emir Palace in Daura, Katsina, publicly challenged Mr Abubakar to come out and mention eight people he has mentored in the North; or the capital projects he executed in the North while he served as Nigeria’s vice president between 1999 to 2007.
Mr Shettima told his audience that Mr Abubakar’s presidency would not serve the North’s ethno-religious interests.

Celebrities / Rihanna Is Pregnant With Second Baby, Reveals Bump At Super Bowl 2023 Halftime by Featuredgist: 7:05am On Feb 13, 2023
Rihanna is pregnant with her second baby, PEOPLE has confirmed.

The 34-year-old 2023 Super Bowl Halftime performer took the stage in Phoenix Sunday dressed head-to-toe in bright red, revealing a baby bump, and becoming the first pregnant woman to star in the halftime show.

Rihanna played up the big reveal in the opening moments of her performance, rubbing her stomach and leaving the zipper of her outfit — a jumpsuit layered over a close-fitting bodysuit and sculpted bandeau — down to reveal her belly.

A rep for Rihanna confirmed the news to PEOPLE Sunday night.

The Grammy winner and her beau, rapper A$AP Rocky, welcomed their first child in May 2022.

He was seen excitedly supporting her on the sidelines during the halftime show, filming her performance and dancing along.

Rihanna first revealed in January 2022 that she was expecting her first child with Rocky, 33. After she was photographed debuting her baby bump in New York City, a source told PEOPLE that Rihanna is "excited to be a mom" and "couldn't be happier."

"Everything Rihanna does, she does it her own way on her own time table, and having a baby is no different," the source said, adding that the couple were over the moon about their baby on the way.

"They're just like any other pair of parents-to-be. Yes, they happen to be famous, but they're just the cutest, giddiest young couple that's expecting kids."

Rihanna opened her highly-anticipated Supr Bowl performance with "B--- Better Have My Money" and also performed her hits "Run This Town" and "Umbrella" on Sunday.

Before welcoming their first child, Rihanna told Elle that, as a fan of The Real Housewives franchise, she thinks her parenting style will be similar to that of Real Housewives of New Jersey's Teresa Giudice.

"Teresa from Jersey does not play about her kids. She will flatten you about those kids. And that resonates with me a lot because I feel like that's the type of mom I'm going to be," Rihanna told the outlet. "Psycho about it."
