Ajani Bankole, the crown prince of Iyeru Village, married Rolake
monogamously in church. They had true love for each other but they
had no child after 5 years of marriage. They were declared medically
fit everywhere they went. Ajani's people started pressing him to have
a second wife. Rolake too told him to but he disagreed, asking : "What
if the woman elects to give you no peace?" She replied," Why will she
do that? We will be like sisters, sharing equally without remorse. She
won't have cause to be angry". Ajani remarked: "What a simplistic
idea! If the world is as simple as you've stated, there won't be
envy,social upheavals and civil strifes".
Later on, an oracle said: "Rolake shall not have a child unless Ajani
marries another woman. But if he does,she shall get pregnant exactly 3
months after the new wife takes in". Ajani had no choice and he
married Awero under Native Law and Custom and brought her home. Awero
is black in complexion while Rolake has fair skin. The women
complemented each other.
The oracle's words were fulfilled. Awero bore a baby girl, Modupe,
while Rolake had a baby boy three months later. He was named Foluso
Adewole Bankole. Awero hated Rolake for having the first son, who will
inherit the throne after Ajani. Awero later had 2 sons ( Kola and
Soji) in quick succession. When Rolake got pregnant again, Awero went
to a witch-doctor who gave her a salt-like powder. It works and
vanishes and no doctor can detect it in a dead person.
The family ate supper and went to bed but Rolake never woke up again.
Neighbours observed that she was hale and hearty the previous day.
During her burial, Awero tried to jump into the grave 3 times and was
restrained. Foluso became an orphan at 3 years of age and the clan
decided to leave him in the custody of Ìyá, Ajani's aunt.
Àjàní lost interest in his home after Rolake's death and began
travelling often. Awero noticed this and felt unloved. Five years
later, she convinced Ajani to bring Foluso back home. "A father's
house shouldn't scare a child",she said. However, Iya warned him,
"That is a foolish move. You're merely going to expose the child to
the dangers that sent the mother prematurely to the grave".
Awero maltreated Foluso whenever Ajani travelled but he still
performed better in school than her three children. Being a full-time
housewife, Awero had all the time in the world to think bitter
thoughts and do evil.
One day, she went to the juju man who gave her the poison that killed
Rolake. She met Chief Lajide, a rich man, on the way. Chief Lajide
regularly used his gateman to procure youngsters who will be fed to a
mysterious python in his house. Awero got home, cooked rice and meat
for Foluso as his lunch and mixed the killer powder with it. She then
took Kola and Soji out for a picnic so that they won't mistakenly eat
the food. (She had sent Dupe to live with Iya in Iyeru months ago).
However, Dupe ran away from Iya, snatched the food from Foluso, ate as
much as she could, and threw the rest into the dustbin. She went to
her room to sleep and never woke up again.
Next, Awero sent Foluso to tell Chief Lajide," Mummy sent me to see
you about the arrangement". Chief Lajide was then to lure him to the
python's room. However, Foluso helped an old woman to carry her load
home and got there late. Awero got impatient and sent Kola there to
check, with the same words she used to send Foluso! Kola got there
before Foluso and was fed to the python. Foluso was sent back to tell
Awero that the deed had been done. Awero reported Kola missing.
Finally, Awero hired Pedro,a professional killer Lajide had told her
about. Pedro is protected by politicians and businessmen who use him
as a thug or a killer. "He is on the right bed in the left bedroon. My
son sleeps on the left bed. I will leave the front door open". Pedro's
foam rubber sandals made no sound as he entered the house and Awero
did not know he had come until the next day. However, just before
Pedro's arrival, Foluso went to the toilet and Soji sleepwalked to
his bed and slept off. After trying in vain to wake him up, Foluso
settled for Soji's bed. Pedro strangled the boy on the right bed,
Soji.
Now that her children were all dead, Awero ran mad and confessed her
atrocities: "You loved Rolake so I killed her. You love Foluso
too,more than you did my children because he was your first son, so I
planned to kill him, and I'll kill him yet". Ajani took Foluso's hand
and they fled from the house. Awero combed the house with a dagger in
her hands and eventually went naked into the streets.

Be safety conscious: call before you act on a text message
A lady's handbag (which
contained
her cell phone, credit card,
wallet etc) was stolen.20
minutes later, when she called
her husband from a pay
phone
telling him what had
happened,
the husband said , "I received your
text asking about our PIN
and I have replied a
little while ago".
When they rushed down to
their
bank, the bank staff told them
that money had been
withdrawn.The smart thief had actually
used the stolen cell phone to
text the husband in the contact
list and got hold of the PIN
number within the 20 minutes and
had withdrawn all the money
from their bank account.
NOTE:
There is nothing really wrong
in
disclosing the relationships
between
you and the people in your contact
list. I am not advocating for/against the use of names like
home, honey, hubby,
sweetheart, dad, mom, etc.
What's important here is, when
sensitive information is being
asked through text, confirm
by calling back. Let's be wise
and
sensitive.
Also, when you are being sent
text by friends or family to
meet them somewhere, be
sure
to call back to confirm that the
message came from them. If
you
don't reach them, be careful
about going places to meet
"family and friends" who text

Woman gives birth after 14 years pregnancy!
Saturday June 7, 2014, will remain the happiest day in the life of
Mercy James. That was the day she miraculously gave birth to a baby
girl after 14 years of being pregnant.
Mercy, a single parent, said of her ordeal during the 14 years she was
pregnant but could not give birth: "When I first took in, I knew that
I was pregnant with signs and test that confirmed that I was. Four
months later, I went to hospital for another test, the result showed
that I wasn't pregnant, but had fibroid.
Subsequently, I began to experience bleeding, at least once a day.
Sometimes, my tummy would protrude in the semblance of pregnancy. I
went to different hospitals, and I kept on receiving the same result
that nothing was wrong with me. But deep down inside , I knew that all
was not well with me."
"So I was taken aback when a midwife told me I was pregnant. But
considering the test which showed I had fibroid, I was angry with the
midwife for giving me what I felt was a false prophecy of hope.
Thereafter, I started going from one church to another and from one
native doctor to the other. The results that I got from them all
remained the same. I became more feeble and confused that I prayed for
death to come. I went again to the midwife two years after and
complained to her about the pains that I was going through. She told
me again that it was not fibroid but pregnancy. She advised me to be
more prayerful so that God will deliver me from the hands of the
devil. I kept on praying and at the same time asking myself that," If
truly I'm pregnant, why is it that the baby was not kicking?".
I bought many concoctions that they said could cure fibroid and drank
them. I even drank 12 bottles of a local cleanser but to no avail.
This went on for years. Then God took pity on me and decided to wipe
my tears.
On the day I gave birth to my baby girl, I initially thought that
worms were trying to come out of my body not knowing that it was a
baby. This was what I told the midwife when we came to her. But after
examining me she told me to push.
I ignored her. I became unconscious for about 15 minutes and when I
regained consciousness, I heard the cry of a baby. I was surprised and
confused seeing my baby. I couldn't believe my eyes. Hmm,I thank God
for my life and that of my baby Miracle. I named her Miracle because
she is truly a miraculous child".

WIFE : He sucks mine now
and sucked it for more than 5 yrs and is still sucking.

MOTHER : He passed between my legs with pains.
WIFE : Hahaha, he only passed there once. He stays between my legs like

HOW TO REACTIVATE A YAHOO MAIL ACCOUNT YOU DEACTIVATED YOURSELF
On May 13,2014, I deactivated my Yahoo Mail account from a cyber cafe
because I couldn't sign in from my mobile phone. I was always told to
sign in from a computer and I don't have a PC or laptop. I removed the
account from my Facebook-connected email addresses and made one of my
Gmail accounts my new primary email. New Facebook notifications ended
up in my new primary email account.
When I deactivated the account,I was told the account would be deleted
by Yahoo in 90 days. It looked so long then. I later had second
thoughts on learning about mail forwarding. Why didn't I just adjust
the Yahoo account's settings so that all the emails will be forwarded
to my Gmail account for me to read on my phone? How do I reactivate
my mail now?
I tried various methods (e.g.trying to sign in with my username and
FORGOTTEN PASSWORD) . I tried to sign up with the same username but
was told the username had been taken (i.e.by me). That reassured me
that all is not lost.
On June 17,2014 (more than a month into the deactivation), I signed
in from a cafe ,using my usual username and password. Usually, I would
get INVALID ID/PASSWORD on doing this. But on this fateful day,I was
told my account had been deactivated and given the REACTIVATE button
to click. I was then given SIGN IN to click and it worked. I was able
to access all my emails (both before and during the deactivation
period) and forwarded some of them to my other email addresses.
BOTTOM LINE: You can always reactivate your Yahoo account before the
90-day period of grace expires. Perseverance is the key. Signing in
used to get me INVALID ID/PASSWORD,but it later worked. I don't know
about deleted accounts,though.

The world's youngest mothers
Puberty, which is the process of a child's body maturing into an adult
one that is capable of sexual reproduction, usually begins in girls
when they're around ten to eleven years of age. The major landmark of
female puberty is menarche, which in simple terms is the onset of
menstruation. This process of puberty is then usually considered
complete by the time girls reach sixteen to seventeen years of age.
However, there are several documented cases of extremely early onsets
of puberty and menarche, known as "precocious puberty".
Precocious puberty may be brought about by a tumor in or an injury to
the brain, among others, but whatever the cause of precocious puberty,
girls who experience it often otherwise end up leading normal lives.
But shockingly, a few of the girls who undergo premature menarche end
up conceiving at unbelievably young ages. Undeniably, what makes such
cases so scandalous is that obviously, these girls engaged in sexual
intercourse for their pregnancies to take place, thus giving rise to
the certainty of child abuse having been committed against the minors.
Here are the ten shocking cases of the youngest birth mothers in
recorded history:
10. Anna "Anya" from Russia .( Age of Motherhood: 8 Years, 7 Months.)
Not much is known about the case of a certain "Anya" from Russia who
gave birth in Rostov-on-Don in April 2000. At the time of the
delivery of her baby, Anya was only eight years and seven months old.
Apparently, a thirteen-year-old neighbor had raped Anya and caused her
to get pregnant after she had undergone menarche at an extremely young
age.
9. Hilda Trujillo ,from Peru .
Age of Motherhood: 8 Years, 7 Months.
( www.hdwallpapers.in )
Hilda Trujillo of Peru was from a poor family that lived in a one-room
residence. With her family stayed a 22-year-old cousin, who one day
secretly raped the seven-year-old Hilda. Five months later, Hilda's
mother, a servant, noticed that her daughter's stomach was growing
abnormally. That prompted her to take Hilda to a doctor, who revealed
that Hilda was pregnant. The cousin who raped Hilda was immediately
charged and arrested.
Approximately eight months after the doctor's diagnosis, on December
2, 1957, Hilda, without the aid of any anesthetic, prematurely gave
birth to a 6-lb healthy baby girl named María del Rosario.

Don't be an impersonator!
Every body shape,height and complexion has its own admirers. Nobody is
"beautiful" enough to attract everybody or "ugly" enough to attract
nobody. That is why many beauty queens are accused (by those who do
not favour their looks) of sleeping with the judges to get the crown.
Many women wear fake hair,fake boobs,fake hips,etc to hook a man. The
funniest of them are those wearing fake boobs and hips. The poor guy
will know the truth only after taking her to bed. Who is to blame if
he dumps her later? The impersonator. Meanwhile,guys who love small
bust have kept away because they considered "hers" too big for their
liking.
A woman who bleaches her skin before marriage will find herself in
trouble when she stops and the hubby discovers she is really
dark-skinned. Meanwhile, "her" fair skin had prevented her from
marrying a man who loves dark skin. Pastors, parents,etc will beg him
to forgive her for the deception but the relationship will never be
the same again. Can he ever trust her again,even on serious matters
like her fidelity and the paternity of their children?
CONCLUSION: You are beautiful as you are, as long as you were created
by God (Genesis 1: 27-31). Don't let anybody convince you otherwise.
