CHIXY'S CORNER

A teenager’s first words after waking up from his heart transplant are a lesson in not taking the small things – like breathing – for granted. Trevor Sullivan, a 15-year-old kid from Detroit, was diagnosed with severe cardiomyopathy last February. He had been waiting for eight months for a donor heart to become available, allowing him to get the life-saving operation. And as he woke up he cried: ‘I’m so happy. I’ve been waiting so long. I can breathe again… and talk.’ What is Cardiomyopathy? Cardiomyopathy is a general term for diseases of the heart muscle. It means the walls of the heart chambers have become either stretched, thickened or stiff. This stops the heart being able to pump blood around the body. Source: NHS Choices When his father Philip, 43, asked him if he felt good, Trevor replied: ‘I feel amazing. I’ve never felt so good.’ Speaking to ABC News after recovering, Trevor said: ‘I really like the video, actually. I think it’s really cool and I wish everyo

Northside Entertainment dance hall singer, Cynthia Morgan has finally revealed what actually transpired between her and HKN act Davido.   The dance hall singer said the real reason behind the drawn beef between them was because Davido called her names first. According to her,   “I do not want to talk about my spat with Davido or shed more light on it because I do not really know what to say. People who actually care tried to find out what really transpired between us. Davido called me names on Snapchat and I retaliated. When you say something to me, I give it back to you if I do not like it. Unfortunately, people did not hear my own side of the story before they reached their conclusions. I do not really have any problem or beef with Davido. He called me names and I called him names too. He started the whole episode by calling me a Malu, which means cow. I do not tolerate things like that from anybody”   However, Cynthia Morgan called the HKN act a ‘fu ck boy’, a

A girl named Barbie-diva on Instagram shared these photos on her page calling the man in the pics her ‘bae’. But it so happens that her ‘bae’ is a married man named Sampala207 on Instagram. the man reached out to her publicly and asked her to immediately delete the pictures, that he was no ‘bae’ of hers. For those who don’t know what ‘bae’ means, it’s a term of endearment for your significant other. Doesn’t she know he’s married? Naija wives and the headaches they go through because of social media. Dem no call your husband for ministerial position, na all this kind thing dem dey see him name inside. Continue… The girl has still not taken the photo down. Source Information Nigeria My thoughts  The writer asked a question if the side chic doesn't know that the man is married.  My Question is  Does the man not know that he's married? Was he not the one that took the picture with the girl?. Can't you see how comfortable he is i

A man who discovered that his wife had been sending nude pictures to other men humiliated her by forcing her to walk naked through New York. He follows the woman after she sexted seven other men calling her a bitch and whore. Speaking in Spanish he says: ‘Take off your towel. Co-operate, bitch. Show what you are, so pretty and so great. She’s a tart. Let’s go. Let’s go. Say hi to the camera and say why you’re doing this. ‘Take off your towel and pay the price for the shame I feel after telling you how pretty you were and that I wanted to start a family with you, but it the meantime you were talking to seven other men.’ Some have questioned whether the clip is real or if it’s some kind of stunt. She tries to hide between cars and at one point uses a motorbike cover to try and cover herself after he takes the towel from her. It was posted on LiveLeak and is believed to be in Harlem, New York. But, as one person said: ‘I don’t know what she did and I don’t care. Nobody deserves to

                                                     bride and groom.   BY ABIYAMO 2 · JANUARY 18, 2016 Although millions of eight-year-old girls in Nigeria are presently playing or disturbing their mothers for more noodles, there is one particular eight-year-old girl who is now a married woman. I have confirmed that two days ago, a marriage ceremony was conducted between a rather curious couple: the bride is eight years of age and she is in primary four (we are presently still getting more information on the groom but initial reports say he is aged 14 and is in SS1). They are of the Baba Ahmed family in Zaria and this is reportedly not the first of such marriages they have conducted. Sources told Abiyamo that although the marriage has indeed been formalized between the two ‘lovers’, there will be no sexual intercourse until at least they finish their secondary school education. It is unclear if there will be other marital duties such as cookin

The end came for 30-year-old Falilat Janta, one of the most wanted human trafficker on the police list.  As reported by punch, Falilat was arrested with her baby girl in Iseyin area of Oyo State after being on the run for a long time. She was on the list of traffickers wanted in three countries, Nigeria, Benin Republic and Togolese immigrations services. Confirming her arrest by the Comptroller of Immigration, Oyo State Command, Innocent Akatu. “This is a special occasion because a notorious trafficker who had been on the wanted lists of Nigeria, Benin Republic and Togolese immigration departments has been arrested. She is young but she has been involved deeply in human trafficking. “She was once arrested but because she was pregnant, she was let off the hook on compassionate grounds. She has since proved to be unrepentant. She trafficked four ladies to Nigeria and handed them over to end users. “Two of them worked in Lekki, in Lagos. We have two letters from the Togoles

I saw a disturbing post last night on facbook that really messed my night up. It was a picture of a nude teen girl in a beer parlor at ‎Enugu with a man sucking her breast. Disgusting! #shrugs.  I was asking myself series of questions, was she high on something? Was it at gun point? Was she threatened to do it? Given that she was completely nude while the guy sucking her breast was clothed with his face covered on her breast. Or were they involved in a truth or dare game? Where was her parents?  I couldn't place my hands on anything.   Sincerely I'm worried about teenagers of this generation that is why I always tell parents to pay attention to their teenagers.  Parents should realise that things have changed, teenagers of today are different from teenagers of years back. Teenagers of the 80s were not exposed to what teenagers of today are exposed to for all it's worth the only gadget a teenager of the 80s rocked was a Walkman, but today's average teenag

Some people just can’t seem to grasp the concept that social media posts are social. We see people get themselves in trouble time and time again for oversharing, but it looks like a new king of poor social media judgment has just been crowned. Meet Malik First Born Allah Farrad, who will be spending the next 15 and a half years of his life in a federal penitentiary because of a single Facebook post. Farrad, born Marvin Buckles, was sentenced on Thursday to 188 months in a Tennessee federal prison following his 2015 conviction of being a felon in possession of a gun. The longtime criminal was last convicted of federal gun and drug charges back in 2000 after police found firearms and crack cocaine in his possession. Farrad was released from prison after serving out his sentence. Before that, he had a long history of arrests and convictions that began at age 14, the Knoxville News Sentinel reports. His most recent misstep is likely his saddest, however, as authorities never would hav

One of the things i've learnt in life is for you to achieve your goals you must be determined. You don't get to your destination on a smooth road, you will run into different types of road blocks and obstacles. However if you're not determined to reach your destination, you will often give up and often not get things done.  That is the story of Miriam Okabie determination got her where she is today.  Miriam is my very good friend she used to be on the big side, I remember her saying there's a gym at home but it's boring to workout alone. Then I invited her to the stadium to come workout with us. Miriam became my workout convert lol. I can vividly remember when she started working out she was so determined to lose weight that even the difficulties she encountered at the time  did not deter her from coming to the stadium.   This morning after a long time of not going to the stadium to workout, I went to workout and guess who I met at the stadium Miriam.

It's a tradition in my church to set some days apart every new year to fast and pray committing the new year and our ways to God. This year is no exception. We're having a 21 days fasting and prayers captioned "The Ultimate Experience ". Ministers from other churches were invited to be part of the program.   Today's guest speaker ( Evangelist Eli Andrew) took me down memory lane he talked about something that many preachers have stopped preaching about. "SIN".  I can't remember the last time I went to a church and the minister took his time to preach about sin‎.  All you hear is cast and bind, back to sender, die by fire, spiritual  husband/wife, you must marry this year, prosperity and lots more. Don't get me wrong I'm not saying that one should not pray about his enemies or pray for prosperity all I'm saying is ministers should hammer more on sin so evil can reduce in our society. Truthfully God talked more about " Holines

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested a man, Okhuli Damian, for allegedly stealing a baby girl from a day care centre in the Alakuko area of the state. Our correspondent gathered that 29-year-old Damian, who lives in the Shogunle, Oshodi, had come to the Alakuko area, and hung around the day care centre, before he gained entry and stole the one-year-old girl. It was learnt that when the one-year-old girl was discovered missing, the school management raised the alarm, and alerted the Alakuko Police Division. This is not the baby (had to put a baby pix her).   A police source at the division told PUNCH Metro that the suspect had been arrested, and the baby girl had been rescued and reunited with her parents. He added that the suspect had been transferred to the State Department of Criminal Investigation for further investigation. He said, “The suspect had come to the school at about 12pm on Tuesday, December 1, 2015, to steal the baby girl. “When the management

When I read certain stories I ask myself what actually is the motive behind this act because it doesn't make sense to me.   according to metro uk This woman knitted a life-size replica of her son because he didn’t want to cuddle her anymore let me ask a "dumb" question, now that she has a replica of her son does it hug her on it's own? Sometimes parents should just let their kids grow up.     The gist is She decided to knit a life-size replica of him and now she cuddles that instead. Marieke Voorsluijs , a textiles designer from The Netherlands says the life-size knit took about two months to make and she had both her sons’ blessing. ‘My son is reaching puberty. We used to cuddle all the time, but those days are becoming scarce,’ she explained in an article for Bored Panda .   son and his replica ‘Now he’d rather hang with friends, play with his phone and listen to his iPod,’ she writes. And while she accepts that this is ‘exactly according to natur

Nothing wey person no go see and hear for this world. According to metro uk A man has developed child sex dolls that he claims will stop paedophiles from abusing children but experts are concerned it could have the opposite effect. Shin Takagi, a self-confessed paedophile, has never acted on his impulses . However, he wanted to build something to help him keep his urges under control. ‘We should accept that there is no way to change someone’s fetishes,’ he told the Atlantic , explaining how he had founded Trottla – a company that builds life-like and anatomically correct child sex dolls. ‘I am helping people express their desires legally and ethically. It’s not worth living if you have to live with repressed desire.’ He added that the dolls, which imitate girls as young as five, could be used in conjunction with other treatments, such as chemical castration and cognitive behavioural therapy. However, there is no scientific research to back up his claim that the dolls would

It wasn't the wedding she had envisioned, but Joan Lyall says her marriage to paralyzed Secret Service agent Garrett Fitzgerald in a Boston hospital room over the weekend was the happiest day of her life. "We were planning a big white wedding [for March 4] with more than 200 guests at a beautiful venue on the water in Long Island," says Lyle, who is from Malverne, New York. "That was the vision I had in my mind, but then the accident happened and my vision changed and focused solely on him and marrying the man of my dreams." Fitzgerald, 30, a Suffern, New York, native who lives in Boston with Lyall, 28, and their 5-year-old Newfoundland named Hunny, was working a campaign detail in New Hampshire on Dec. 29 with three other Secret Service agents when a 45-year-old unlicensed driver's car hit their van head-on. Fitzgerald's colleagues received non-life threatening injuries. The driver of the car that hit them was pronounced dead at the scene.  

Body Piercing - is a procedure in which a sharp instrument is passed through a fold of skin or part of the body. Call me old fashioned I really don't mind because I can never be a fan of body piercing. These days increasing number of people are piercing their bodies in strange places _------- > the navel, tongue , nipple, genitals etc. I've tried without bias to see how body piercing adds to ones beauty but I'm always grossed out by the thought. (shrugs). I've always sensed that there is something wrong about body piercing and was proved right when I read about a young girl (19 years) who was wheeled into Salt Lake City hospital who had stopped breathing from an overdose of a “date-rape drug” . Doctors at LDS Hospital tried to put a breathing tube down her throat, but their path was blocked by three 1-inch-long metal stud barbells running along the length of her tongue. “One doctor got to the point where he said, ‘If you have to rip her tongue, just do it, sa

I shudder when I read news headlines like the one above. Nigerians are hard working and intelligent people, I see no reason why a few bad eggs would go to any length to give Nigeria a bad name. According to pulse.ng the suspects Emmanuel Adanemhen, 50, and his brother-in-law Eduwu Obasuyi, 40, will be jailed for 14 years for taking part in a 25 million pound Internet fraud involving victims from 55 countries. The suspects who are big time fraudsters use fake identity to open bank accounts to launder funds from bogus schemes, which included dating website scams, false inheritance scams, overseas lottery wins and shipping frauds. One of the con men Adanemhen was arrested by the police and was force to lead them to his partner in crime Obasuyi, of Friern Road, East Dulwich, who was about to board a plane from London to Lagos, Nigeria.     suspected fraudsters. Confirming their arrest by Detective Constable Paul Walker, from the Kent and Essex serious crime directorate, he s

The news of a 27 year old feminist campaigner who claims she was raped by a man in a shower in South Africa went viral on social media. Amber Amour who is from New York uploaded a photograph of herself sitting on the bathroom floor with tears streaming down her face alongside a graphic and disturbing description of the event.  As a woman I'm tempted to take sides with her because I know that being stigmatized a rape victim wrecks a woman emotionally and the after effect of rape is very devastating but after reading her story I felt she wanted to be raped because most things didn't  add up. Thankfully reading different comments I realised I'm not alone with my thoughts.  Amber Amour My thoughts.   * She went to her old hostel to leave a note for her friend Nick * There was a guy there, Shakir who desperately tried to get with her though she kissed him once but he seemed drunk and she felt it was "Bad Timing ".  Note -------> He is not even

  Sometimes I can't help but wonder if social media is a blessing or a curse.

A groom punched two bridesmaids at his own wedding reception – leaving his wife’s best friend needing reconstructive surgery. John Paul Campbell, 27, attacked his new wife’s best friend, Samantha Dewar, after she stepped in to stop the first fight, a court heard. He punched her full in the face and she was sent flying onto the floor. Campbell pleaded guilty to inflicting grievous bodily harm. Samantha suffered a fractured cheekbone and had to have a metal plate inserted to reconstruct her cheek. Samantha Dewar Samantha, who lives in Macclesfield with her baby, three-year-old daughter and fiance, said she had been friends with the bride since attending Tytherington High School, but they have not spoken since the wedding. She said: ‘We’ve been best friends since school and I helped her get ready for the wedding. I can’t believe what’s happened, I’ve lost my best friend. ‘Everyone was having a nice time at the reception and it was at the end outside in the car park when it hap

When I read certain stories I can't help but wonder if it's true because some of these stories are disgusting to say the least. According to pulse.ng A 22-year-old man, Ganiu Amusa, has been arrested by policemen attached to the Alakuko Divisional Headquarters of the Lagos State Command, for allegedly raping a 5-year-old boy  The Punch Newspaper reports that the toddler informed his mother, Mrs. Adenike Ejigbo, that his anus was aching him and when the mother asked him when he started developing the pain, he narrated how 'Uncle' Amusa sodomised him through the anus. The alarmed mother immediately reported the matter at police station where the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), Supol Ajayi Abayomi, ordered investigation into the matter and Amusa was arrested. After initially denying committing the act, Amusa later confessed and owned up to the offence and was thereafter transferred to the Lagos State Criminal Investigations Department SCID, Smith Street, Yaba, fo
