Lola Okoye Opens Up - Molested By Catholic Priest & Abused By First Boyfriend

Posted in: , ,

Lola Omotayo Okoye opened up at the recently held Kinabuti Dare2Dream Project in Lagos where she was invited to address young girls. Lola felt the best example she could give, was to use a certain aspect of her life to explain herself better to the girls.

She explained how a priest molested her while in high school, how bitter she was to herself and the reasons she couldn’t tell anyone including her family who loves her so much. She later met another man in life, and the story repeated itself before finally meeting Peter of P-Square and the rest as they say is history.

Malavath Poorna, a 13-year-old Indian girl whose parents are poor farmers successfully climbed to the top of Mount Everest, making her the youngest girl to do so.

The Indian girl said she met with a Nepalese climbing team on the 25th of May in Tibet, who agreed to guide her through the adventure.

However, speaking to the media on Wednesday in New Delhi, the young girl said it wasn't such an easy task as she battled with extreme cold, dead bodies, fear and difficult climbing conditions as she was climbing up the world's tallest mountain.

According to her, "tears of joy" flowed uncontrollably when she made it to the top of the mountain and saw "mighty mountains and morning sunlight" all around her.

Posted in: , ,

Michelle Obama is an excellent example of what any country would expect their First Lady to be. She supports her husband the president, without being over exposed in her own duties. And she is always elegantly turned out, choosing clothes that suit her and are ver modest in taste and price.

Here are some of the pictures of the first lady this past week. The picture above was tagged;

"The First Lady closes the Summit on Working Families by sitting down with @RobinRobertsGMA to talk about her own experience as a working mother. #FamiliesSucceed"

#Bossladies - Funke Akindele At the Lagos Street Sweepers Annual Workshop

Posted in: , ,

Did I mention that I am currently in Naija? No? I landed a couple of days ago and I'm semi-loving it. As usual, it is a mix of the good, the bad, the ugly. But the clean streets are part of the good, which is why these pictures by Funke Akindele caught my attention in a specific way. I have seen Lagos streets close up, and the women street sweepers in action. I have to agree with Funke that they are doing a great job.
