Meet the New 007! Meet Lashana Lynch, who’s Replacing James Bond at MI6 in Upcoming Movie

Image
British actress  Lashana Lynch  is taking over from  James Bond  as the new 007 at  MI6  in the 25th movie in the franchise. According to  The Mail , who quoted a “movie insider,” Lashana Lynch is the new character who takes over  Daniel Craig ‘s secret agent number after he left the British intelligence agency. The source says the stories begins with Bond retired in Jamaica before he was called by spymaster M ( Ralph Fiennes ) who calls him back to help tackle a new global crisis. The source continued: There is a pivotal scene at the start of the film where M says ‘Come in 007’, and in walks Lashana who is black, beautiful and a woman. It’s a popcorn-dropping moment. Bond is still Bond but he’s been replaced as 007 by this stunning woman. Bond, of course, is sexually attracted to the new female 007 and tries his usual seduction tricks, but is baffled when they don’t work on a brilliant, young black woman who basically rolls her eyes at him and has no interest in jumpin

Temi Olajide: How to Handle Mum-Guilt as a Working Parent

Image
there has never been more working women in the world than we have today. In fact, according to a World Bank research in 2011, more than half (57%) of Nigerian women between the ages of 15 – 64 years old are in some form of employment. So, the truth is that most women have to work to either support their partners, or to provide for their kids as a single parent. As a result of this, many mums have no choice but to spend long hours away from their little ones. Most mums are often consumed with guilt, because they have to leave their children early in life to the care of either family, daycare/creche, nannies or after school programmes. The truth is your reality requires you to work, so the earlier you embrace your decision, the faster you will find ways to deal with your mummy guilt. If you really had a choice, you’d probably take your little one everywhere with you. But the truth is you don’t; the next best thing is to manage the situation in the best possible way. Now, if yo

Five Wedding Dress Codes Explained!

Image
Are you unsure of how to dress for a daytime, afternoon, or evening wedding that you just got an invite to? Here are five common wedding dress codes explained. Resort formal Just because the wedding will be held on or near a beach doesn’t mean wearing a fancy cover-up or flip-flops are appropriate for the event. A summer dress or colourful cocktail dress are both great options for ladies, and a linen suit or khakis and a button-down shirt for the guys will be comfortable and stylish. You should have it at the back of your mind that you may likely be on the sand, so wear fancy flat sandals since it will be nearly impossible to walk in high heels. A morning formal wedding If your friends (the engaged couple) got inspired by Prince William and Princess Kate (Middleton), who had a formal wedding in the morning, there’s a strict dress code for guests to follow. The men can wear a cutaway coat with tails, a vest, and pin-striped pants with a top hat-optional. Another option is a m

Those pushing you won't be able to help you by the time I finish with you - journalist Tunde Moshood replies Cossy Ojiakor

Image
Journalist Tunde Moshood has reacted to the post actress Cossy Ojiakor made on Instagram earlier today, accusing him of working with her arch-enemy, Halima Abubakar, to run several defamatory stories about her some years ago. Read  here . In his response which he posted on his IG page, Tunde vowed to deal with Cossy. According to him, he would not have responded to her attack but he had to because she dragged his daughter into it. Read his statement below Stop Press! The Burden Of Proofs On Pathological Liar, Cossy Orjiakor-Her Sex With Dog Controversial Video Its been 10 years since we ran the Sex With Dog story of Nigeria's No.1 porn star, Cossy Orjiakor. Good for her then, it wasn't an internet era, so the story was good as being stale before she pulled her luck too far. Ordinarily, I would have kept mute with all the name callings but having to drag my innocent daughter was going to the crescendo. The trouble with most of us is that we would rather be ruined by

Insecurity: Arrest Obasanjo now- Miyetti Allah tells President Buhari

Image
The Fulani socio-cultural organisation in Nigeria, Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore, has called on President Buhari to as a matter of urgency, arrest former President Olusegun Obasanjo over his recent remarks on insecurity in the country. The group said the former President in his open letter to President Buhari released today July 15th, accused Fulani herdsmen of being the root cause of insecurity in the country. The former President in his open letter, said it is quite unfortunate that criminality has now been attached to the Fulani tribe because President Buhari is from the Fulani extraction. ''The unfortunate situation is that the criminality is being perceived as a ‘Fulani’ menace unleashed by Fulani elite in the different parts of the country for a number of reasons but even more, unfortunately, many Nigerians and non-Nigerians who are friends of Nigeria attach vicarious responsibility to you as a Fulani elite and the current captain of the Nigeria ship.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s open letter to President Buhari on the insecurity has vindicated the party’s position.   Obasanjo, on Monday in another open letter to President Buhari, lamented about the state of the nation, while calling for urgent actions to tackle Nigeria’s challenges. Reacting, the PDP in a statement signed by Kola Ologbodiyan National Publicity Secretary, on Monday, described Obasanjo’s open letter as patriotic and prove that President Buhari has failed as the nation’s chief security officer. The statement read: “The party notes that President Obasanjo’s letter reechoes its numerous caution against the violations, insensitivity, impunity, vindictiveness, divisiveness, intolerance and dangerous sectionalism that characterize the Buhari administration and which are jeopardizing our national unity.   “The PDP urges President Buhari to read between the lines and listen to the voice of reason from w
