In this age of social media, if you blink twice, you may miss something. And because everything is now fast-paced, clarity is often lost in the noise of click-bait headlines, unending chatter of Twitter lords and visual excesses of Instagram sensations.
Enters TrueYarn to sift through the clutter, offer some insight, common sense and help you read between the lines of the ‘things wey dey happen for obodo Naija’.
Here goes:
Memo to runs girls
Who would have thought that runs girls (code-name for professional sex workers) would be the last hope of our dear country?
Etinosa Idemudia, best known for stripping naked during an Instagram Live session with MC Galaxy, is the receiver of the ministration which she says came directly from heaven on a Sunday morning.
Quoting historical examples, Idemudia reminded us that prostitutes have been known to influence the decisions of big men and big gods since time immemorial.
And to think that it has been staring us in the face all these time – it just never occurred.
Finally, we now know how to get our leaders to do the right thing for Nigeria. What a moment of clarity!
Blackface’s Angry Queen
Congratulations dear Blackface, your never-ending tussle with 2face Idibia is now a teenager.
The tussle is now exhibiting various tantrums, also not uncommon for a teenager.
The release of his own version of African Queen, 15 years after the song was first released, is proof that grown ups can still act like teenagers.
What shall we call this new African Queen – a spinoff, remix or a cover?
Meanwhile, can anyone explain why his own African Queen is not smiling in the artwork?
Goodbye Venita
Like every other thing in life, Venita’s rancorous stay in the BBNaija house has come to an end.
After leading several gossip sessions, conniving ceaselessly, and getting in the middle of other people’s fights, viewers were more than happy to send her home last week.
It’s not all bad news anyway. The actress can now use her newly acquired fame to kick-start her career in Nollywood.
P.S: We only heard about her great cooking skills rather than see them in action.
The Blossom Triangle
For reasons yet-to-be-known to us, the marriage of Blossom Chukwujekwu to Maureen Esisi has failed to blossom past three years.
Although Maureen has promised to “spill the real deal” to everyone interested in their failed union, the grapevine is working overtime and churning out all sorts of theories.
According to Auntie Stella of SDK fame, while the marriage was thriving on social media, it never did well in real life.
Auntie Stella says the actor has packed out of his house and is ready to collect back the bride price he paid.
Meanwhile, Lilian Esoro has been dragged into the matter with allegations that she’s involved with Blossom.
Stay tuned. The story is still unfolding.
Teddy A-irpods
Conversation about xenophobic attacks took a pause last weekend as the air pods used by Teddy A at his wedding enjoyed national spotlight.
Despite the fact that Teddy A wore his own airpods in his own ears to his own wedding, the folks at Twitterville felt the onus was on them to have an opinion.
Sometimes, try and mind your business, world people.
The Ken Erics Affair
Since the era of celebrity marriage collapse is in full swing, here goes another one.
This time, singer-actor Ken Erics is the subject of our attention.
Again, courtesy of Auntie Stella, we understand that his estranged wife says their marriage ended on the night it was “contracted” and that they never got around to consumating the union.
The wife, known as Oyin, said she has never seen the actor’s nakedness and that once when she tried to seduce him, she became a victim of domestic violence.
Meanwhile, the rumour mill has been swirling with talks that the actor loves boys… way more than girls.
Side-EYE
Abayomi ‘Omoba’ Adesanya, chairman of Okitipupa LGA in Ondo, recently announced the purchase of FOUR TYRES for a Toyota Hummer Bus that had been abandoned for years.
The purchase of the BRAND NEW tyres came two days after he swore in 15 personal assistants.
Omoba is really working!
