Meet The Celebrities Who Tormented Nigerians In 2013
Nigerian Designer, Emmy Collins who is known for being so outspoken and constantly criticizing celebs is at it again, this time he has made a list of the train wrecks of the year and of course blasted them.
2013 was a very eventful year for us here. We saw the worst of the worst all in the name of “celebrity”! We saw popular people with no talent become more popular, we saw people with no style at all torture our eyes on every red carpet. This list names 8 people who tormented us in 2013, and whom we really wish they could ” make it stop”. So these people are what I would like to call, the train wrecks of the year:
1. Tonto Dikeh
From her crappy music, to her even crappier acting, down to her tacky style choices, this council member of the bleachers inc is certainly a train wreck. Fighting on Twitter, dissing other “celebs” on social media, showing off knock offs on instagram down to the NDLEA weed episode, there is no stopping Tonto. Girl loves attention, and will do anything to get it. If only she can devote this amount of passion to bettering her craft.
2. Davido
What Davido lacks in talent, he makes up with a HUGE ego. This noise maker is a product of a massive PR machine, oiled by (as we hear) family money. The spoilt brat flights at clubs, spews rubbish during interviews, and is always ready to cuss out anyone who doesn’t agree with him. In a country where you can become a “celeb” with half baked talent, Davido certainly reigns supreme.
3. Muna
If Muna would get off fighting with anyone who describes her lack of talent on Twitter, maybe, just maybe she would have one hit song. This former MGBN who describes herself as a rapper (rolls eyes) is certainly a very pretty girl, but it appears that is all there is to her. Her personal style also hasn’t improved. Winning MGBN is a great launch pad, so I suggest that she figures out what it is that she is good at, because rapping (rolls eyes again) is definitely not one of them.
4. Toyin Lawani
We woke up one morning and Toyin lawani was everywhere. This stylist (her words not mine) and chairperson of the Bleachers INC is clearly the joke of the year. She’s currently pregnant, so I will try to be nice (lol). She should however go easy on the bleaching, and we are so tired of seeing her knock offs on Instagram. Someone told me that she is a fashion designer also (scoffs). Ms lawani is not about to stop.
5. Cossy Orjiakor
I cringe whenever someone refers to Cossy as a Nollywood actress. So showing off humoungous b**bs and a flabby body in the most rachet way possible qualifies her as an actress? Shame!! Cossy has no talent whatsoever, I would have suggested she moved to Las Vegas to be in a burlesque show, but her flabby body won’t quite cut it. So the big question remains “what is it that Cossy does”?
6. Afrocandy
This “I am getting old, but I must be talked about” woman is hilarious joke. She is described as a producer/director of soft P0*n movies, which she often features in. She is often on social media, sharing her opinion on everything. Somebody described her as Nigeria’s Anna Nicole Smith and I nearly fell off the chair laughing. Dear Afrocandy, you are getting older, just accept it! Being ratchet won’t reverse the clock.
7. Maheeda
I certainly don’t know how to classify this woman. I am not quite sure what she does, besides showing off her “vijayjay” on Instagram and there seems to be no stopping her. Not even Instagram themselves who suspended her account, can stop her as she is back and stronger! Lol! We have no words!!
8. Uche Jumbo
I am not big on Nollywood, but I hear that Uche Jumbo’s acting has improved. I also hear that she has become a film maker, which is good too. However she is on this list because of her style or lack of it. Her marriage to an American eye candy hasn’t improved her horror style. Her horror highlight was at the AMVCA nominees party where I could have sworn that she was attacked by a pack of wolves just before she got in the red carpet. Girlfriend needs a stylist like yesterday. Well let’s hope they make it stop in the new year

UNBELIEVABLE: Goat Delivers Human in Ekiti
Ekiti in Ekiti SouthWest Local Government Area was on Tuesday thrown into confusion when information filtered that a goat had delivered a human-like baby goat.
Olori-Oko community is about three kilometres to Ikeji Arakeji in Osun State.
Residents of the community and people from the neighbouring village trooped out on Tuesday to catch a glimpse of the strange creature.
The goat was said to have delivered a ‘mystery human baby’ around 6am on Tuesday having fallen into labour around 8pm on Monday.

Mass Failure - WAEC Releases Poor November SSCE 2013 Results
Mass Failure! WAEC Releases Poor November SSCE 2013 Results
The West African Examinations Council (WAEC) has released what its official called ‘a discouraging’ result for the November/December 2013 West African Senior School Certificate Examination.
The WAEC Head of the National Office, Mr Charles Eguridu said that there was worrisome decline in candidates’ performance in the examination when compared with students’ performance in 2011 and 2012.
“This year, 2013, we have a total of 86,612 candidates representing 29.17 per cent obtaining credits in five subjects and above, including English Language and Mathematics.
“In 2012, a total of 150,615 candidates representing 37.97 per cent obtained credits in five subjects and above, including English Language and Mathematics.
Students of a public school in Lagos: 2013 WASCE results discouraging “In 2011, a total of 139, 827 candidates representing 36. 07 per cent also obtained credits in five subjects and above including English Language and Mathematics,” he said. Eguridu said that of the 308,217 candidates that registered and sat for the 2013 examination, 299,784 had their results fully released while 38,260 other had theirs withheld in connection with examination malpractice.
Giving further breakdown of the results, Eguridu said that 120,115 candidates obtained six credits and above, while 161,721 others recorded five credits and above. He said that 198,832 candidates who sat for the examination obtained credits and above in four subjects, while 230,325 others obtained credits and above in three subjects.
The HNO also said that a total of 256,500 other candidates recorded credits and above in two subjects. Eguridu said that 82 blind candidates registered and sat for the examination, adding that, of the figure, 17 candidates obtained credits in five subjects including English Language.
According to him, blind candidates do not take Mathematics and Science practical in the WASSCE. Eguridu attributed the poor performance of candidates during major examinations to wrong values, lack of role models, poor incentives for teachers as well as lack of qualified teachers, among other challenges. He said that the council was set to partner with any state government in providing strategies to teaching and learning processes.
He said that this would will help in effective curriculum delivery He announced that the council will deploy cutting edge technology in the conduct of its examinations as from May, 2014, beginning with the May/June, 2014 WASSCE. Eguridu said the council would use Radio Frequency Identification Smart Cards. He said that the cards would be for easy and accurate identification.
Eguridu said that there would also be automated attendance registers, instant and accurate identification, instant malpractice reporting and effective post examination management. “In view of the council’s zero tolerance for malpractice and increased use of mobile handsets during examination, the council has made it mandatory for all schools to provide serviceable metal detectors. “This will be used to prevent candidates from smuggling mobile handsets into examination halls,” he said. According to Eguridu, the council will continue in its quest to improve on service delivery through the deployment of information communication technology. He said that the council had fully migrated from paper-based registration to electronic registration of candidates for its examinations.
Eguridu noted that in the November/December, 2013 WASSCE, the council deployed biometric technology in the registration of candidates, while data capturing was the basis of identifying candidates and taking attendance. He said that reports from the field indicated a drastic reduction in impersonation of candidates. He said that the reported cases were being investigated and the reports of the investigation would be presented to the Nigerian Examinations Committee of the council in due course, for consideration.
According to the HNO, a total of 8,433 other candidates have a few of their subjects still being processed due to some errors mainly traceable to them and cyber cafes in the course of registration or writing the examination. “Such errors are being corrected by the council to enable the affected candidates to get their results soon,” he said.
