"A nation of perverts and paedophiles" - Femi Fani Kayode Posted: 20 Jul 2013 03:57 AM PDT The Nigerian Senate includes some of the brightest minds in our country many of whom are friends of mine and most of whom have been in active politics for many years. They have my respect. However what transpired in the Senate chamber a few days ago was a great cause for concern for not just me but millions of Nigerians from all over the world. How an innocent and seemingly uninteresting, uninspiring and unimportant debate about when and at what age a Nigerian citizen could legitimately and lawfully renounce his or her citizenship turned into a referendum on paedophilia and child marriage I dont know. Yet sadly that is precisely what happened and ever since then the nation has been on fire. Senator (ex-Governor) Ahmed Sani, the Yerima Bakura and the Apostle of political sharia in Nigeria finally got his way and the futile attempt by a small number of good, noble and honourable Senators to amend the existing law on marriage and properly define the age of a female that is eligible to marry was thwarted by the pro-paedophilia, pro-child rape and pro-child marriage group within the Senate. Sadly our distinguished Senators eventually bowed to the will of Yerima and his friends and agreed to remain silent about the age that young girls can get married in Nigeria. What this means is that girls that are as young as 9 years old can continue to be lawfully bedded and married in our country providing they are deemed as being ''physically developed enough'' to do so by their suitors, their prospective husbands and their parents. That is the law and that is the sordid level that we as a people and as a nation have degenerated to over the years. I weep for Nigeria and, perhaps more appropiately, I weep for the Nigerian girl child. I weep because it is obvious to me that the Yerima's of this world wish to turn our country into a giant Bangkok to which millions of sexual deviants flock from all over the world to ''enjoy'' our ''tourist attractions'' and ''have a taste'' of our young and beloved children. Worst still they wish to use religion to defend and justify it. Yet we have no choice but to live with this new reality and to accept it as it is. After all, our representatives in the sacred halls of the Senate were not sensitive enough or ''man enough'' to shoot down the whole thing, to stand firmly against the unholy agenda and to say boldly and firmly that ''come what may'' our children must be protected from sexual deviants and reprobates. And since the Senate, in its infinate wisdom, has now bought into and openly endorsed the "Paedophile Charter" which essentially makes it lawful and constitutional for very young girls to get married and to have sex at a very young age it is my firm view that we have now become a nation of perverts and paedophiles. The Senate had a chance to clear the air and amend the law but, out of nothing but sentiment and an inexplicable eagerness to compromise with that which is clearly evil, they threw that chance away and sacrificed our most sacred values to Yerima and his gang. Worst still they did it with a smile on their faces. Every Nigerian should bow his or her head in shame because instead of crushing the head of the lustful beast that seeks to fornicate with our children, to steal their virtues and to destroy their future what the Senate did the other day was to compromise with and cater for the filthy appetites and godless fantasies of a bunch of child molestors and sexual predators. It is sordid. It is ungodly. It is evil. And it is unforgiveable. Surely we ought to be seeking to protect our children and not seeking to bed them. Yet it appears that not everyone shares our outrage and collective sense of shame. One Uche Ezechukwu made the following contribution which went viral on the social media networks and which I think speaks volumes. He wrote- "Those who are railing against 'paedophile' senators, like Yerima Bakura, must be told that a muslim can't go wrong while imitating the examples of the Apostle of Allah himself and the founder of his religion, in the same way a christian cannot be criticized for following the examples of Jesus Christ. The Holy Prophet Muhammad (SAW) married Aisha at the age of six and consummated the marriage when she was nine. So, why are we judging muslims by our own standards?" I am appauled by these words. The truth is that I have never heard such a self-serving and specious arguement in defence of the philosophies and beliefs of the Ayatollah of Bakura, Senator Ahmed Sani, the practising paedophile who married and bedded a 12 year old Egyptian girl, as this one. Ahmed Sani himself could not have argued it better. Yet I think that it is an utter shame. And this is more so because the individual that is putting the arguement is supposedly a christian. The Old Testament of the Holy Bible prescribes ''stoning'' for adultry but that does not mean that christian countries, or indeed secular states like Nigeria, should stone adulterers. Neither does it mean that we should preserve the institution of slavery or crucify petty thieves simply because the Holy Bible endorsed both practices in the Old Testament. We must accept the fact that the interpretation of biblical and koranic provisions are evolutionary and are ever changing. Jesus Himself said ''laws are made for man and not man for laws''. The suggestion that paedophilia has any place in any modern and decent society simply because it was once practised in the distant past is not only a despicable arguement but it also does not make any sense. After all cannibalism and child and human sacrifice were once widely practised and were held as being perfectly acceptable throughout the world as well but that does not mean that we should practice any of those terrible vices today. The young man, Uche Ezechukwu, who appears to be defending child rape in the name of islam, should either let someone lay with and ''marry'' his own 6 or 9 year old daughter or he should seal his lips forever and stop trying to defend the indefensible. His assertions, and I daresay those of Senator Ahmed Sani and anyone that shares their primitive views, are not only utterly immoral and reprehensible but they are also intellectually dishonest. I say this because the truth is that there is NO muslim country in the world that has adopted the "paedophile charter" where 6 or 9 year olds can marry and be bedded except for Saudi Arabia, Iran and Yemen. Every other muslim country in the world, including Turkey, Indonesia, Pakistan, Malaysia, Egypt, Jordan, Senegal, the Sudan, Tunisia, Afghanistan, Lebanon, Palestine, United Arab Emirates, Bangladesh, Qatar, Bahrain, Dagestan, Albania, Bosnia, Somalia, Algeria, Libya, Mali, Azerbejhan,Niger, Turkestan, Chechnya and Syria have specifically banned child marriage, paedophilia and child rape in their various constitutions and laws and some have declared it ''repugnant'', ''unacceptable'' and ''unislamic''. Are these people not muslims too? As a matte if fact are they not better muslims than those that insist on sleeping with or marrying underage girls in the name of islam? Like christianity and judaism, islam is a noble, pure, honourable and ancient faith that seeks to protect the weakest and most vulnerable in society, including children. No-one should use the misinterpretation of its provisions to try to justify or rationalise what is essentially depraved, shameful, disgusting and barbaric behaviour and the most sordid and filthy expression of sexual deviance and perversion. Even animals do not marry or bed their own infants. The bitter truth is that paedophiles have no place in any civilised society. I am constrained to say that in the light of their "yes" vote to child marriage and their green light to paedophilia, every single member of the Nigerian Senate that voted with Yerima on that day and that supported his filthy agenda should bow their heads in utter shame and they should be compelled to offer their own infant and under age daughters to strangers for marriage. I repeat, they have turned us into a nation of perverts and paedophiles and I say a pox on all their houses. I reserve my commendations and respect only for those Senators that opposed and voted against Yerima's protestations and agenda and that stood for that which was right even though they could not muster enough votes to have their way. My word to this brave and righteous few is simple and clear- keep the struggle alive and continue to resist the evil that resides amongst us all. You are the only thing that stands between our children and the practising paedophiles in our midst who seek to ravage and bed them even before they have entered their teens. |
Funke Akindele reverts to maiden, removes Oloyede from her social media accounts Posted: 20 Jul 2013 03:18 AM PDT Following an official statement released a few hours ago by Funke Akindele's camp confirming the end of her one year marriage, the star actress has removed her estranged husband's name, Oloyede, from all her social media accounts. She's also spoken for the first time about the end of her marriage. She told Stella Dimoko Korkus: First of all let me clarify that I have not replied any SMS or spoken to anyone on this development before now and neither have I threatened to sue anyone. I do not know who sent out that SMS denying that my marriage is over. That was what necessitated me sending out a press release so as not to confuse the public, especially my fans whom I'm so passionate about. Yes my marriage has crashed. Let the people who are laughing at me continue laughing. My job afterall is to make people laugh. Let those who are without sins or mistake cast the first stone. Let them continue judging me. God is the overall judge. He is the one I look up to. |
What Really Went Down Between Me & Iyanya; Yvonne Nelson Bares It All Posted: 20 Jul 2013 03:15 AM PDT For sexy Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson, heartbreak is a painful experience best avoided. Not exactly in the mood to relive her sensational breakup with popular Afro-hip hop act, Iyanya, she ended up doing so just to set the records straight like never before: How are you enjoying your stay in Nigeria? Did I tell you I'm half-Nigerian and half-Ghanaian? I was given a Nigerian name recently which makes me half-Nigerian. My Nigerian name is Damilola. It has been wonderful, I always say Nigeria is like a home for me. When I'm here, I do not feel like going back home again. But it's just that everything seems to be faster here. You are in the country to premiere your latest movie. What's the movie all about? The movie is titled, 'House of Gold.' It is a family-oriented comedy, and I want people to come and see two of Africa's music stars Ice Prince and Omawumi make their debut in a movie. I produced the movie in partnership with Media Ghana. "House of Gold" tells the story of Dan Ansah Williams, a high-flying entrepreneur, business mogul, polygamist and socialite who is battling with cancer and has six weeks to live. With the help of his long-time associate and legal representative, he embarks on a mission to recall all his children, most of whom were born out of wedlock, back home. Dan's last wish is to have all his children under one roof for seven days so they will get to know one another and bond due to the fact that they share the same blood line. However, that reunion proves a little more than everyone bargained for as each child indeed returns with an agenda, and this sets the stage for the most hilarious and bizarre seven days of their lives. I'm urging people to come and see the movie because they are going to laugh and have a nice time. How did you get Ice Prince and Omawumi to star in the movie? It was very challenging given the fact that they are busy people, always performing at shows. I have my own way of doing things. I spoke to them and they gave me their time and schedules, so I worked with it. We spent about 15 days on set. Your first movie, 'Single and Married' was also directed by Paschal Amanfo, what do you have with him? Paschal is one of the best directors in Ghana. He is a very straightforward director and it's very easy working with him. You would like to work with somebody who helps make things go smoothly while on set. What's your experience like working with Ice Prince and Omawumi on set? They were amazing on set. Ice Prince was the one who really shocked me because he had a show a night before joining us on set. He did not even sleep, as he took the next flight to Ghana and the moment he stormed the set, he started reading his script and mastering his lines. Omawumi was so good that I was tempted to ask her why she's not into acting in Nigeria. I also had the funniest Nigerian actor,Francis Odega, on set. Why did you decide to star the duo in your film? It's my own marketing strategy as a producer. I believe they have their own fan base and audiences. I wanted to spice up things. When you watch my movie, my cast are usually very interesting. People are sick and tried of seeing the same Nollywood and Ghollywood faces in our movies. I could have used notable Nollywood actors, but I just wanted to spice up things because I don't think people are expecting what they are definitely going to see in the movie. Controversies have been trailing your acting career in recent times; from your break-up with Iyanya to accusations that you bleached your body and more recently, an article posted online where you lamented that Iyanya used and dumped you. Why all these controversies? Did anybody hear me say that? Nobody used and dumped me. As journalists, you should know that your colleagues are fond of using sensational headlines to drag traffic to their blogs and websites. At the end of the day, I did not say somebody used and dumped me. I don't remember saying anything like that. But what actually happened between you and Iyanya? I guess it is out there. I granted two interviews on this whole thing; Bella Naija and Toolz (The Juice). I don't want to repeat myself. My interviewers took what they wanted to take away from the interviews I granted them. I don't have any control over what they decide to publish or put out there. You have moved on after the break-up? It happened last year. The reason I granted those interviews was to let my fans know the truth about what transpired between Iyanya and myself. Sometimes, one's fans desire to know what's happening to their idol. How do you address the allegations of lightening your skin? Do I look like someone who is bleaching? One thing people should understand is that we use a lot of photo tricks.If you watch our movies, for instance, I look a little bit dark but if you see my pictures, I look fair in complexion. Commonsense should tell anyone that the pictures are treated. What happened is that I posted my new picture online and people started alleging that I was bleaching my skin. That's how the whole thing started. My mum is fairer than me, and my siblings are all fair in complexion. I don't bleach and I don't intend lightening my skin. Do you feel hurt each time you read negative stories about yourself? I don't. I don't even know why they say all the things they say about me. To some people, if you tell them you can fly, they would believe in you. Whatever they read in the dailies, they believe in. It's good for them. So, I can't go into everybody's home to tell them, "Look at me, I haven't bleached before." I'm happy with myself. Are you in any relationship at the moment? Not that fast. I'm now a "sacred virgin," meaning you are not a virgin but after a long time, you become a sacred virgin. There are some special people in my life that I hang out with once in a while. But I'm not in any relationship at the moment. I just want to take my time. It's not as if I'm looking for guys. I believe that when it is the right time, they will come looking for me. But are you not thinking of settling down? It's something that I'm thinking about, but I just want to take my time. More so, I'm still young. However, if it comes my way, why not? But definitely, not with somebody in the entertainment industry. Meaning that you wouldn't want to date an entertainer again? Not at all. Is it because of your experience with Iyanya? I guess everybody knows that. It was quite a shocking experience. Even after your break-up with Iyanya, there were some tweets meant to be an apology to you from one of your contenders, Tonto Dikeh. How did you receive the tweets? Like I said in my interview with Bella Naija, I hate a situation where you bring a third person into any relationship that I'm involved in. I don't want to mention names. There are certain things I wouldn't want to talk about here. I know that those tweets were actually meant for me. There is no problem. I hope she's happy now because she did whatever she had to do. She advised me to move on, and I wish her good luck. After reading your interview in Bella Naija, we sought Iyanya's reaction and he told us you were free to say whatever you wanted to say. Has it got to that extent? Fine! You guys should go back and read the interview again. We are in a business where everybody is trying to protect his or her fan base. Most of his fans are women while my fans are basically men. So, I would do anything to protect my male fans just as he was trying to protect his female fans. He can't run away from the truth. I decided to open up because I didn't want to disappoint my male fans. I was ready to talk about it. And nobody could stop me from doing so. Given this situation, would you turn down any offer to be on the same set with Tonto Dikeh? I don't have any problem with anybody. As a professional, if I get a phone call from a producer and the script is something I like as well as the person directing the film, why not? I will. I'm not fighting with anyone, even though we are not friends. But all the same, whatever tweets she posted were meant for me. It's okay, there's nothing wrong with that. We all have our lives to live and were brought up in different backgrounds. I don't have to respond to anything. At this point, would you say you were heartbroken? I once was. What's the healing process like? Just like any other person. I guess everybody goes through heartbreak. It's a natural thing and as time goes on, you get over it. I can't sit down at home and cry all day long. I'm occupied with a lot of things; I have movies to shoot, I'm travelling and handling other projects. How would you describe Iyanya? Great guy with great talent. He's like the best singer I've ever known and he gives me good reason to think so. Before the breakup, were you envisaging a situation where the relationship would lead to marriage? I don't know. But you gave the relationship your best shot? I'm sure if you are in a relationship, everybody gives his or her best to it. We all gave our best. What was the real problem? The real problem was what I spoke about in the two interviews I granted to Bella Naija and Toolz. What is it that people don't know about you? Back in Ghana, you hardly see me hanging out with any guy. This is because I'm always indoors even when I'm not shooting a film or travelling out of the country. But here, in Nigeria, the reason people get so many stories to tell about me is that each time I'm in the country and they see me in the company of some of my colleagues, they will start drawing conclusions that we are dating. That has been my problem in Nigeria. I cannot control what people say about me because I don't live here. Sometimes, I need these guys to take me around. In Ghana, I drive myself around and do my things in my own way and nobody says anything about me. It looks as if I can't have friends any more. If anybody they see me with is going to be an issue, then there is already an issue. Am I the only person that hangs out with friends? All these things doesn't disturb me either because I'm a free spirit. I think people should stop linking me with guys. I'm not hiding anything. If I have a boyfriend I should be proud enough to talk about him. |
Sex or Food: How Couples Should Get It Going Posted: 20 Jul 2013 03:10 AM PDT I can't get my husband's food ready and at the same time be his fantasy sex partner. It is not possible. One has to give way. A working class wife told me this on the phone: 'He wants his food and sex at the time I thought the 'only way to a man's heart is through his stomach'. Well, the truth is that even after you feed your man well with the best delicacies that money can buy, with an average husband, food and sex still goes hand-in-glove. Ladies, no matter what you think, it is what you do in bed and in other matters, apart from food, that will guarantee a sealed deal between you and your man. I am not saying that giving him good sex is the 'only' way to set your marriage on the path of bliss. What I mean is that everything else could amount to nothing without great sex. As a matter of fact, sex is so important to your man, just as it is to other men. It will be unwise not to live up to his expectation in bed even if you are a good cook. Although most women are not trained to make their men eat well and at the same time be good in bed and make their husbands scream their heads off in the heat of the action, it will not hurt to appreciate the fact that sex is an art that one can learn. I want to talk about what every woman who wants to keep her man should know. They are little things that we always take for granted, which frankly speaking, make a world of difference between satisfying our men sexually and alienating them, thereby, giving room to unnecessary quarrels in the home. To begin with, if there is one place in your home that you need to pay a lot of attention to, it is the kitchen and the bedroom. As much as every woman endeavours to keep her kitchen neat and good, wise women understand the need to turn the bedroom into one unpretentious sex theatre. Everything in your bedroom must look, smell and taste sexy from the beddings to the décor and right down to the lighting. It is important to eliminate distractions by restricting, for example, the television set to the sitting room (where it really ought to be) and ensuring that books remain in the study. The bedroom should only be for making romantic conversation, curdling and sleeping in a peaceful manner, and for making hot and unforgettable sex. Nothing else is acceptable. The kitchen has been known to be the woman's territory. Ladies, you should keep your 'sexual empire' neat at all times. Nothing kills the passion faster than faded, unappealing and ugly grandma-type of underwear, or cheap, low quality brassieres and pyjamas. Investing in good and sexy lingerie will not only elicit an appreciative response from your husband, it will also ensure that you get his praises for food well prepared and undivided attention. Flaunt your God-given body lustfully before your man while serving his meal because it is your unique gift to him. A confident display of your body in a seductive manner is a sure turn-on for any man, and quite honestly, chances are he will not care that your figure is not the drop-dead, come-hither type that keeps heads turning in its direction. It will not cost you a dime to be adventurous in your own bedroom. Place his food on a small side table in the bedroom. It is the perfect place to whet his sexual fantasy. While you are at it, remember that going through the same sexual routine all the time will lead both of you nowhere. Therefore, it is important to break the monotony by trying out something new. For example, you can decide to share his meal in-between you on the bed and afterwards, turn off the light and seal the dinner with 'desert sex' and surprise him with a bit of bedroom acrobatics. If he is the one who makes the first move, now is the time to take the initiative for a change. Go all out to spice up your sex life. Dream up new ideas. Doing this will not make you look like a slut; rather it will transform you into every man's dream. Believe me, with most men, there is nothing that is as thrilling as a wife with a creative chef habit and a healthy sexual appetite. If the kitchen activities are cumbersome, there are caterers who specialise in preparing special local delicacy. They are all around us, once in a while you can place an order and make do with such for a while. Some people can cook better than you do and feed your family well with a healthy balance diet, but nobody else should be able to give him great sex. So when it comes to placing priority, food and sex with man most times go hand in glove. By Funmi Akingbade |
