Singer Kefee is Dead, Official Statement Denies Earlier Reports of Pregnancy and Pre-Eclampsia
Kefee Obareki Don Momoh has died at the Desert Springs Hospital in Las Vegas where she was taken to after she collapsed on a long-haul flight and went into coma. She never came out of the coma contrary to earlier reports. And she also was not pregnant or suffered pre-eclampsia.
Kefee was a gospel singer, known best for her singles Branamah and Kokoroko. She was said to be in her mid 30s, she had recently released a song, and was working on an album. She and her husband had spent the last few months in the US pursuing courses in video production and directing to aid them in their business.
May her soul rest in peace. And may her husband especially, and the rest of her family be comforted.
Her manager confirmed her passing in a statement and Kefee's husband also spoke to a radio OAP who announced it on air. Below is the official statement from Kefee's UK publicist for the family.
Sex Education For Married Women, Have You Read This?
The text from the picture above is suppossedly an extract from a sex education school textbook for girls, printed in the 50s or 60's to help women to enjoy sex with their husband and keep their home.
However, according to those that know better, the extract is a fabrication. It didn't surface until long after the text began circulating by email and is "clearly a mock-up". It is just possible that it dates from the 50s - presumably as a satire on contemporary images of the ideal housewife. On balance it's likely to be far more recent, however. It is said to have been circulating in faxed form since the 1980s.
Read the text in full below, and laugh. Or maybe not. In this day and age, some people still think this is how sex in marriage should be. Do you agree?

Have You Seen a Baby Moving Inside The Womb Like This Before? Watch!
A close up shot of the belly of a 37 weeks old pregnant woman shows the unborn baby moving around in the womb, pushing so hard that the outline of its head, behind and legs are visible on the mother's stomach. Have you seen such an amazing sight before?

Former Abductee Speaks on Being Raped By Boko Haram and The Baby She Has For Shekau
Meenah Dawah (not real name), was kidnapped after she was forced to watch her parents being shot dead and held captive by Boko Haram for 27 months. She has told her shocking story to 1Q4 news, and says she was raped by multiple men and has a baby which may belong to Boko Haram leader Abubakar Shekau.
Meenah was kidnapped at 17 from her village in Konduga town, northern Nigeria by the dreaded sect after the massacre that claimed her family and has been moved around a lot since then. She only regaind her freedom after the Nigerian Military sacked the Boko Haram camp where she was held at the time.
However, though Meenah is free from the terror of the Boko Haram, she is now facing the stigma of having been raped and having a child that belongs to a terrorist. I wonder if there is a fund to help these victims of the Boko Haram violence against women?

[Please Advise] Dear RML, WHAT AM I DOING WRONG???
This came in as a comment on the Real Love Story post
Awwww!!!! The story got me praying to God and asking for something beautiful as this to happen to me. At times I just feel like giving up. What is wrong with me that I don't seem to hook up with someone I love and who in turn genuinely loves me? There must be something wrong isn't it RML readers?
I've got a guy who head over heels in "love' with me but frankly I FEEL NOTHING for him. A friend tried to match make me with someone in the US and when we started off, it was ok though I was constantly appalled at his terrible use of the English language(both written and oral) and he is supposedly doing his Masters.
