Naira Marley has sent a message of warning to his fans, who are known as Marlians.   A lot has been said about the Marlians - some of them in jest and some as criticisms. Marlians are considered as people who do not live by the rules but make their own rules. This has begun posing a problem recently as some young people have gotten themselves in trouble as a result.    For instance, at the start of school this year, some secondary school female students were allegedly suspended for starting a Marlian cult in school.    Parents and some pastors, including Apostle Chris Omashola, have blamed the decay in society and in our youths on Naira Marley's influence on kids, which they say has not been positive.   Omashola even claimed God revealed to him that Naira Marley is a demon sent to derail the future of our youths.   The singer has now sent out an advice to his fans, urging them to enjoy their life but to also ensure that they do not destroy their future while at it.   He

I give all credit and respect to Tyson.  Even though Tyson is going on like 50 now, I still remember Tyson as the young, young 21-year-old.

Be that as it may, the President has denied these cases.  Be that as it may, Kanu has come back again with one more verification. Posting on his Facebook Page on Wednesday morning, he stated: "Buckingham Palace doesn't invite dead individuals."  Peruse his announcement beneath I discharged undeniable logical proof to demonstrate past each possible uncertainty that Abba Kyari and his pack of Fulani dread supporters enlisted a 45-year-old Sudanese man Jubril Al-Sudani to supplant the dead despot Major General Muhammadu Buhar Among the logical proof I exhibited, was the way that Jubril isn't as bare as Buhari, which drove me to move him to expel his top out in the open. On account of old British imperial clothing regulation for

Dangote completes deal to buy 10,000 trucks from Indonesia In a Country where the government says they have the peoples interest at heart, we do not see what measures theyve put in place to better the lives of its People.  Instead it imposes high tax rates while they stuck up wealth and assets for them and their families abroad, leaving the masses to suffer. The so call plot to close borders in order to make us patronize and invest our resources in Nigerian made products was a good idea, the only issue that comes therein are embedded in these questions; * What are the measures put in place to enable governments goals come to reality? * How is the government going about regulating prizes or Nigerian made goods? * Whats the empowerment scheme by the government in this law? Why did I put these questions forward? Someone told me a few months ago that Nigerian elite owned companies liked Glo Comms, Dangote, Cadbury etc, pay lesser percentages of tax fees compared to smaller busi
