Emotions overflow, as ex-housemates depart.BBA 2014.

The housemates had been under severe
tension, believing the exes, who had
been watching their game, knew their
weaknesses and were better prepared.
Luclay added to the tension on Friday,
when he lost his cool, claiming only one
contestant was capable of beating him
to the prize money. He had showered
the housemates with insults after Biggie
asked him to wear his microphone. The
instruction triggered a primal rage that
had clearly been lying dormant inside
him, especially after his altercation with
Goitse.
He had everything to say about how the
Hotshots were way out of their depth in
the game. He said they lacked what it
took to win the prize money.
But when on Sunday, Biggie revealed to
them that the exes were just a ploy,
some of them were in tears.
Tayo could not believe his fate as he sat
down and wept. After Biggie told the
housemates to unfreeze, Goitse stayed
in her position and had tears run down
her cheeks. Idris also stayed in his chair
and did not move as he perhaps could
not believe what had happened. When
Tayo started crying, M’am Bea went
over to comfort him and soon after, she
went and wept in Ellah’s arms. Nhlanhla
joined the ladies in a group hug and
encouraged M’am Bea not to cry as
they had gone through a lot already.
The housemates did not seem at all
impressed with Biggie’s prank but were
definitely glad to have remained in the
house. Idris went to sit outside and
Ellah joined him. He did not look like he
was keen on any company but
remained calm nonetheless.
Goitse sat on her own upstairs, crying
and staring into nothingness. Idris went
up to her and held her in his arms
while she cried. The two bonded a little
as they reminisced about Feza who had
given them a talk. Downstairs,
Butterphly sat quietly, seemingly in a
sulky mood.
Housemates started thinking back to
the characters that were brought into
the house and analysing how they
strategically played them.
With only two weeks left of the Big
Brother Africa show things are bound to
still get heated up in the house.
Although there were no nominations for
possible-eviction among the
housemates last week, Biggie revealed
that all housemates are up for eviction
this Sunday.

Lion blindsided by crocodile in river escapes

Lions might be the kings of the jungle, but crocodiles rule the river. At least most of the time. That wasn’t the case in a video shared by Kruger Sightings the other day. It shows a young lion crossing a river and getting blindsided by a crocodile. A woman in the background can be heard saying, “Oh my God; oh my God,” just before the inevitable. But it has a happy ending: A happy ending for the lion, that is. The crocodile’s next meal would have to wait. The footage was captured by a tourist while standing on the H10 bridge near the Lower Sabie River in the Kruger National Park in South Africa. “All we can say is, lions should always look both [ways] before crossing the river,” Kruger Sightings said on Facebook

Obasanjo tells youths, Fight for Nigeria’s survival.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has told youths to take up the responsibility and effect the needed change in Nigeria instead of blaming the previous generations for the nation’s decay. The former President said this at the 100th-year anniversary of Ijero Baptist Church in Lagos on Sunday. Obasanjo said the generation before him fought for Nigeria’s independence while his generation fought for Nigeria’s unity during the civil war. He said the subsequent generation also fought for democracy. Obasanjo, therefore, said it was time for the next generation to make its own contribution to national development instead of complaining. He said, “Recently, a son of my friend looked at everything around him and got angry and went to meet his dad who is my age mate. He told his father that our generation is a lost one. The father did not pay him any attention so he came to meet me. “He told me what he told his father and justified it by telling me that he went...

Angelique Kidjo: speaks on state of Africa

And with Africa facing new challenges - from Ebola to extremists opposed to girls' education - she is vocal in her criticism of Western depictions of the continent. "Do you think everybody in Africa has Ebola?" she asks on Talk to Al Jazeera. "We didn't invent Ebola. It's just a disease that exists there. Like, are we going to be blamed for inventing malaria too? If there is an Ebola outbreak in the Western world, will the media in the West treat it the same way?" She also expressed her frustration with the way Western media portray Africa as a continent steeped in violence, victimhood and corruption. "A success story in Africa doesn't interest any media," she says. "They are so eager and hungry for horrible stories from Africa. Why? It looks like the West is the hyena, feeding on the misery of the African people. They should be ashamed doing this." On the topic of terrorism, she is crushing in her criticism ...

If I had wanted to be a member of the party that my family belongs to, I would have done that. In the past 10 years, APC has been very supportive towards my development financially, and also, to my children’s development. Senator Remi Tinubu stood by me and she didn’t even stop helping me. During my album launch, she sent First Lady of Lagos State, Dame Abimbola Fashola to represent her,” she stated.
