November 28, 2014

Here are some fabulous ankara print styles for a fashion goddess. While Maheeda is busy releasing her Goddes Of X nude photos, we are taking the opportunity to present to you, these fabulous ankara print styles that have been showcased on the runway of Glitz Africa Fashion Week Accra.

Now that we have shown you all the fabulous ankara print styles from Seyi Jones, let us tell you more about Maheeda and her photos.

The Holland-based Nigerian singer Maheeda whose real name is Caroline Sam and also goes by the alias, “Naija Bad Girl” became popular and well known for releasing nude photos. Instagram once deleted her account for posting nude and provocative photos.

Even though she took a break from posting her naked photos on her social network, the mother of one is not ready to stop promoting herself with her nude photos anytime soon as she has just released new ones with the title, “Goddess of X”

In a recent interview with Encomium Nigeria, Maheeda said she has no problem sharing her naked photos because she uses it as a way to promote and get attention for her music.

“True, I don’t have a problem doing that but I think it is because of my job and I know most Christians won’t understand it. But I just believe that this is what I have to do, to get attention, especially when it comes to my job and I just believe His grace is enough for me. He loves me more than my ‘nakedness’. If you see God as a Father because He sees you as a daughter, I would not because of your nakedness want to ruin you or kill you. That is how I see God. He understands me. He hates me but He loves me at the same time,” Maheeda told Encomium.

Asked if there’s any rivalry between her and US-based Nigerian p.o.r.n.star, Afrocandy, she said, “I really don’t know, maybe she feels threatened. I used to feel threatened as well, it is normal. Sometimes I feel jealous of Muna, Tiwa Savage. I feel like why are you having all those things which I don’t have. It is just normal but it is the ability to control it that really matters.”

On whether she has learnt any lesson from being an orphan and going into prostitution, she replied, “Sober? I have come to that point of my life where I don’t judge people. The way you learn is different from the way I learn. The way you see things is also different from the way I see things. If you think someone is doing something the wrong way, why not pray for them instead of criticizing them, because the more you criticize in bad faith, the more you are destroying them.

Bottomline is that we are not all the same. Maybe this is my own way of learning. I may not learn the way you did, just give me time because you never know what will happen at least. When there is life, there is hope.”

Maheeda, who said she’s also into nude modelling told the magazine there’s nothing the critics will say to stop her from doing what she’s doing. She also said her Dutch husband is very supportive of her. She got married to him two years ago and relocated to the Netherlands where’s she’s now based for 2 years.

Woman From Hell: Ugandan Maid Begs For Forgiveness For Brutally Beating A Baby

The woman from hell nanny who slapped, stomped, kicked, threw, and walked over an 18-month-old baby for throwing up on the floor while she was babysitting her is asking for forgiveness and said she’ll never do it again.

The 18-month-old Arnella Kamanzi, that was mercilessly beaten to near-death by Jolly Tumuhiirwe is reported to have been taken to the hospital pediatric section of the Mulago Hospital to undergo further medical examinations.

According to a source from the national referral hospital in Uganda, “The baby was brought here for examinations and a number of tests will be done to establish whether she is in good health.”

Jolly Tumuhiirwe, who is currently in Luzira prison and has been scheduled to reappear in court on December 8th says the world should forgive her for beating baby Arnella to near death. She said her anger was referred to as the innocent and defenseless baby because her father was sick and her bosses refused to pay her upfront.

“My dad in Kabale was very sick and yet my mom did not have any money. I asked my bosses for some money to send to my dad but they told me that I hadn’t made a month yet and my father was dying, so it kept on haunting me.”

“That is the more reason I referred the anger to the baby but I’m sorry. But that madam (Arnella’s mum) is not easy. She used to say that I steal money from the clothes and Eric’s wallet, I eat the baby’s food…and yet I can’t eat the food, I’m not a baby, those were all lies, so, I was also not happy from my heart.”

She went on to say she feels guilty for what she has done and that she did it because she thought she was disciplining the child as has seen the mother slapping Arnella as well.

“I feel guilty..ok when I was doing it I thought I was disciplining the baby because also the mother sometimes slaps her, I also saw from the mom. The torch I used was small and it’s not hard. I think I will never do it again”

Hated in Prison
Speaking about her prison experience, Jolly says the other inmates hate her for what she has done and want to beat her up. She then went on to ask the world to forgive her and ask bosses to be nice to their maids.

“It’s not good at all even my fellow prisoners don’t want to associate with me, they want to beat me up. In fact, they were saying that I should join them in their rooms, nobody likes me and I’m feeling bad I will never do it again, I ask the world to forgive me and also tell the bosses who have maids to treat them well.”

How A Cameroonian Lady Succeeded In Turning Herself To A Living Ghost

While Hollywood actress, Halle Berry has taken her ex-partner, Gabriel Aubry to court for trying to turn their daughter white – and Lupita Nyong’o is making strides and being celebrated worldwide is a beautiful dark-skinned woman, a 35-year-old Cameroonian woman is doing everything possible to change her dark skin to white and looking like a living ghost.

A picture shows the former Cameroonian model, Irene Major looking dark and beautiful. In another picture, she is seen looking sick and like a living ghost. Irene, who is married to a Canadian oil tycoon, Sam Malin, says she’s proud of her new pale and ghostly looking skin that was achieved through extreme bleaching.

The proud skin bleacher shared her before and after photos with the UK Daily Mail saying she looks more beautiful with lighter skin. “When my skin is lighter, I just feel prettier. It’s a taboo subject, and people get judgmental about it, but that’s how I feel,” she told the paper.

Speaking about how lighter-skinned women are considered to be prettier in Africa, Irene said, “A skin-lightening regimen has been part of my life practically since birth. There are many different types of African skin — from dark charcoal to a lighter version — and you grow up knowing that the lighter ladies are the prettier ones. It’s just a fact.”

Skin bleaching is becoming rampant among black women that videos and posts on how to lighten skin tone or lighter skin tone with fast results, receive massive traffic and views from women hoping to change their skin colour. These creams are labelled as skin toning cream, lighter skin tone cream, even tone skin cream, skin toning lotion, and several others. A few months ago, US-based Cameroonian singer, Dencia was all over the news for her Whitenicious skin bleaching cream.

If reports by Page Six are true, fans of American rap artist and owner of Good Music label, Kanye West will not be hearing new songs from the entertainer.

According to the reports, Kanye is ditching music so he can concentrate on a career in fashion as he has realised there’s more money that could be made in the fashion industry than he’s currently making singing.

“Kanye West is coming to the conclusion that there are bigger bucks in fashion than in music. After his next [collaboration] with Paul McCartney comes out, he’s going to step away from music and concentrate on clothing,” Page Six reported.
According to the reports, Kanye’s line has been kicked back several times because he has not had the time to concentrate on music and fashion at the same time. As such, the African American rapper would be stepping away from music to enable him to concentrate fully in fashion.

“He got a $15 million signing bonus from Adidas, but his line has been pushed back four times because he hasn’t had enough time to work on it.”

The Hollywood actress thinks her ex-partner does not want Nahla to appear African American and has resulted to straightening her naturally-curly hair – as well as lightening it with products to make the child look more white.

Time magazine Amends Mislabeling Of Chibok Girls, No More Boko Haram Girls

After an internet attack from Nigerians who felt Time Magazine was insensitive for their mislabelling, the magazine has made amends. Time Magazine listed the Chibok girls as Boko Haram girls as one of their nominees for the 2014 edition of the Person of the Year award.

Many Nigerians found the labelling insensitive and distasteful. As a result, they took to the internet to call out the magazine and register their disappointment.

The girls were kidnapped by the Boko Haram terrorist group about six months ago while they were in school. All efforts to bring them back home has been unsuccessful. The kidnapping led to the popularity of the #BringBackOurGirls hashtag that has been supported by the American first lady, Michelle Obama, as well as several well-known politicians and celebrities.

“I Did Nothing Wrong And I’d Do It Again”- Says Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson

In an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Ferguson Officer Darren Wilson says he did nothing wrong by shooting and killing black teen, Michael Brown.

Asked if there was anything he could have done to save Brown, especially if he was white, Wilson said no and that he would have done it again because race had nothing to do with it.

Officer Wilson who fired multiple shots at the unarmed teen said he started shooting after Brown threw the first punch through the window and hit the left side of his face. He said when he asked the teen to get back or he’ll shoot him, Brown charged at him and attempted to grab his gun – taunting him that he was too much of a pu**y to shoot him. He said Brown tried to shoot him with his own gun and that was the first time he shot and called for backup.

On why he kept on the pursuit after Brown ran away, he said his job was not to wait in the car but to know where the teen was running to, so he needed to go after him while he was waiting for the back up he called for.

On going forward after killing someone, he said he’ll have a normal life. Asked if he will not be haunted by the fact that he killed someone. He said no and that it will always be something that happened. He added that he has a clean conscience because he knew he was doing his job when he killed the unarmed teen.

The jury’s decision not to indict Officer Wilson for Brown’s shooting and subsequent death resulted to violent protests yesterday that saw cars, gas stations and businesses going up in flames.

Yesterday, American businessman, Donald Trump made a series of tweet where he blamed President Barack Obama for the incident and said because the president has done a poor job, there’ll be no chance of America having another black president in generations to come.

Because President Obama Has Done Such A Poor Job As President, You Won’t See Another Black President For Generations

According to American businessman, investor, television personality, chairman and president of The Trump Organization and the founder of Trump Entertainment Resorts and CEO of Trump hotels, Donald Trump, Americans will not see another black president in generations to come because of President Barack Obama’s poor performance. Trump made the statement through his Twitter account while sharing his views on the Ferguson riot. “Sadly, because president Obama has done such a poor job as president, you won’t see another black president for generations!,” he tweeted.

Speaking about how there has been a wide racial divide in America since Barack Obama became president, Trump tweeted: “Despite having a black president, the racial divide seems greater than it has in decades. If Obama were a leader, this would not be the case.”

He also said the riot would have still taken place no matter the jury’s decision. In his words: “If the decision by the grand jury in Ferguson was the exact opposite, you would still be having the riots right now!” “There is no excuse for riots in Ferguson regardless of the grand jury outcome,” he added.

On what Russia and the rest of the world will be saying about the US he says: “Can you imagine what Putin and all of our friends and enemies throughout the world are saying about the U.S. as they watch the Ferguson riot.” He continued, “As China and the rest of the World continue to rip off the U.S. economically, they laugh at us and our president over the riots in Ferguson!”

On control and the African American community he tweeted, “President Obama has absolutely no control (or respect) over the African American community they have fared so poorly under his presidency.”
