Tonto Dike Is Still Mrs X - Shows Off Goodies From Her Mystery Man

Posted in: ,

Many people guessed that Malivelihood was Tonto Dike's Mr X until he was seen flaunting another woman on his social media. Some then used that as definitive proof the couple had broken up. But if the two were ever together, it must have been a long time ago. Or maybe all her men are Mr X until she is ready to announce him to the world. For now, the Nollywood actress appears content showing off the goodies she gets from the mysterious man and just having some fun. With one of her recent pictures she wrote;

Nothing we are is by CHANCE, IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF THE GRACE OF GOD* I hope today brings u as much Joy as Life Has given me & Beyond** GOODMORNINGAWESOMEFOLKS #MRSX.

One of the best feelings one can have is the feeling that some people who have never met you in person have your back. I have experienced love from unimaginable people; Ghana, Liberia, Paris, UK, USA, Seychelles and all over the world.

Some met me crying, gave me gifts, took pictures, asked questions, and some, not so pleasant. But in all of these, I have no complaint because being where I am is a gift and privilege by God. A privilege and a place I never thought I would be, a few years ago.

Omotola, Genevieve, PSquare, More Celebs Open Up On How They Lost Their Virginity

Posted in: , , ,

Sometimes I laugh at the questions that Nigerian journalists ask, but it's not that the questions are irrelevant, but they are asked so flippantly. One of such questions involves asking celebrities when they had sex for the first time. Sometimes the celebs answer directly, other times, they take a roundabout route.

One thing that should worry us, and make these journalists take these questions more seriously, is the number of celebrities who lost their virgnity as a result of rape or child sexual abuse.
