I WANT TO MARRY MY CAT!!!

Designer Karl Lagerfeld has declared that he wants to marry his pet cat Choupette.

The eccentric creative director of Chanel said the one-year-old white Siamese cat was his most prized possession.

Choupette, as the cat is called, has its own staff, including three maids who are tasked with noting down everything the feline does while Largerfeld is away from their home in Paris so that he can check up on how his beloved pet is spending its time.

"There is no marriage, yet, for human beings and animals… I never thought that I would fall in love like this with a cat," Lagerfeld told CNN's Fashion Week: Backstage Pass. 

When asked if the cat flies by private jet, Largerfeld said: "Yes, why not?"

Choupette is well known among fashion circles. As well as its own maids, the cat has 27,000 followers on Twitter. It has its own pillow and dines with Largefeld twice a day, eating food that has been specially prepared.

Choupette's biography on the Twitter account @choupettesdiary reads: "I am a famous beauty who refuses to eat on the floor & my maids pamper my every need. I am Choupette Largerfeld and I am a spoiled pussy."

SPANISH POLICE NAB SIX NIGERIAN WOMEN OVER PROSTITUTION RING



With about 12 years gone by since the Idia Renaissance group in Benin-City led by Mrs Eki Igbinedion, wife of former governor of Edo State, led a spirited campaign against human trafficking especially to Italy and other parts of Europe, the Spanish police have revealed they have broken up a ring that smuggled women from Nigeria into Spain and forced them into street prostitution by burning them with irons and using voodoo rituals.
The well-connected pimps, who usually come to Nigeria to look for young and innocent girls for the illicit trade of prostitution on the streets of European countries, usually lie to the parents of the unsuspecting girls that their children are being taken abroad to work as store/supermarket attendants, clerks or such other jobs.
In turn, they lure these girls to their destinations and make them swear an oath of allegiance and loyalty and even faithfulness to the terms and conditions of their engagement. The gang often tortured the women and scared them with curses to force them on to
the streets.
PROSTITUTES
 According to Daily Mail of London, six people, including one woman, believed to be the ringleader, were arrested after one of the women alerted the Spanish authorities.
“The control exercised over women was total, involving verbal threats as well as physical violence and various voodoo ceremonies to terrorise them,” police said in a statement.
“The ring leader caused them serious injury through bites or by using an iron to cause second-degree burns.”

The ring allegedly recruited women in Benin City, the capital of Edo State, reported Sky News.
Most of the women were vulnerable, struggling to raise children because their husbands and fathers had died. The gang transported the women over land to Morocco.
From there, they were smuggled to small wooden boats and taken into Spain. They were forced to work as street prostitutes in Barcelona and Malaga.
Spanish police have swooped on them several times in past years on similar prostitution rings that used the threat of voodoo curses.  Often, the victims are taken to shrines and after taking oaths, are made to drink some substances that are meant to act as a monitor on their oaths. After which, they are
 told to leave personal items like dresses, bras, or such warts behind.
They are told this gives the juju priests power to harm them from afar, should they fail to keep to the terms, a kind of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).  They are instructed to pay their debts, determined by the pimps, and forced to join a prostitution ring.
The women are brainwashed to believe that breaking their promise to the pimp will hold catastrophic consequences for both them and their families. 
Sex gangs often use a form of witchcraft or juju to scare their “slaves” into working for them. Last year, a Nigerian people smuggler who used witchcraft
rituals to force children to work as sex slaves was jailed for 20 years in Britain.
Osezua Osolase, 42, tricked poverty-stricken Nigerian orphans into travelling to the UK with the promise of a better life. But the young victims were raped, equally abused and subjected to voodoo-style rituals by a child trafficking cartel.
Osolase, the linchpin of a multi-million pound global sex trafficking ring, used “juju” magic

THINGS FALL APART FOR CHINUA ACHEBE

The Pride of Nigerian Literature andauthor of most widely read book in mordern African Literature, Chinua achebe has been confirmed dead.He died in a hospital in Boston after a period of long illness.

Achebe has been called "the father of modern African writing and many books and essays have been written about his work over the past 5 decades. In 1992 he became the first living author to be represented in the Everyman's Library collection published by Alfred A. Knopf. His 60th birthday was celebrated at the University of Nigeria, by "an international Who's Who in African Literature". An observer after the event noted: "Nothing like it had ever happened before in African literature anywhere on the continent."
Achebe will be remembered for turning down the federal Government's offer to honor him with national award 'Commander of the Federal republic in 2004 and 2011 stating:
"I have watched particularly the chaos in my own state of Anambra where a small clique of renegades, openly boasting its connections in high places, seems determined to turn my homeland into a bankrupt and lawless fiefdom. I am appalled by the brazenness of this clique and the silence, if not connivance, of the Presidency"
 Achebe's novels focus on the traditions of Igbo society, the effect of Christian influences, and the clash of Western and traditional African values during and after the colonial era. His style focuses on the Igbo oral tradition, and combines straightforward narration with representations of folk stories, proverbs, and oratory. He has also published a number of short stories, children's books, and essay collections. Since 2009, he has been a professor at Brown University in the United States.
He died at the age of 82.

POPULAR NUDE BEACH SUFFERS SHUT DOWN THREAT.


A very popular nude beach is being shut down on weekdays to help reduce sex and drugs. On the 19th of March, Washington Post reported that a beach at Wisconsin River near Mazomanie will be shut down on weekdays now. Nudists from everywhere like to come to this beach.
Visitors to this beach obviously get turned on by what they see and they have been going out in the woods to do drugs and have sex. The management of the nude beach seem overwhelmed by these acts and want to put a stop to it so closing the beach on weekdays seem like a stop gap solution to this.
Back in the 90's the beach actually worked only in the day and stayed closed at night, also visitors were   stopped people from camping there. 
This is just one more step in the way of making things safer at the beach. They are doing everything that they can to make things better in this area.
 By the way, what's the big deal about nude beaches?

ABUJA'S SONGBIRD, LINDSEY UNVEILED.....

If you haven't met her before, you'd say she's shy, Naive and withdrawn. Give her a microphone and Guitar and watch her change your beliefs about her. Lindsey Abudei is arguably the voice of this Generation. With the skills of Tracy Chapman on the Guitar and the soul of ASA on the microphone, this SOUL SISTA is set to rock Nigeria and the world in general. Recently she was hosted on the Midday Dialogue by INYA ODE on Nigeria info abuja, and she gave a hint of what she'd be doing at the DMP (Designers Market Place).
I had no choice but to abandon all my scheduled events for the day to watch this songbird sing, and indeed it was worth it. Delivering songs from her EP and doing two cover songs (Fela Wahala and Asa Jailer) and the crowd just couldn't contain its excitement as this breath of fresh air took their breath away. The Live band was put together by FLUX FACTORY, abuja's premier Management company, led by Gospel on the beat (remember the first line on Davido's All of you.. he produced the song).
I got a little recording of her session with Inya at the studio and an extended version of her Live performance.

Watch out for the Live performance tomorrow
