Why Would Any Mom Do This To Her One-Year Old?

Posted in: , ,

I am a fan of Chacha Eke and her adorable little daughter Kamarachukwu Darlene Faani, see preious pics here and here. The little girl turned one today and the actress just released these pictures from her birthday studio photoshoot..

Should you blame the first time mom, or whoever runs the studio for allowing these troubling pictures of a baby in full make up? And what's up with the old woman wigs too? And the phone, car keys, and porshe in the backdrop, what happened to colorful decorations for the little girl's hair and having cute back drops of toys and such?

If one wants to play dress up with their little girl, by all means! Ideas boku - professions, traditional outfits, play, outdoors, and more. This little girl looks overwhelmed and not a day under 50 with all the makeup and wig. I hate to call out any mom, but this is so not it!

My only consolation is that the little girl later looked to have some fun, and may be too young to remember this. But mom should hide these pictures or make sure there's a funny story to go with them.

Nigerian Government Reacts to Maltreatment of 17-Year-Old Student By Egypt Air

Posted in: ,

The Nigerian government through the foreign ministry has summoned the Egyptian ambassador, Ashraf Salama to formally protest the treatment of 17-year old Joshua Abdul-Azeez, during his botched trip using Egypt Air. The junior minister, Viola Onwuliri, accused Egypt Air of “child-abuse” for starving the teenager of food for three days, after wrongly routing his air ticket, and she demanded an unreserved apology from the Egyptian Government.

According to PremiumTimes, she said it was unacceptable that Egypt Air had failed to respond to repeated enquiries from the Nigeria Embassy in Cairo on what led to the treatment of the Nigerian student in Ukraine like a criminal.

In his defence, the Egyptian ambassador said the Nigerian media was to blame for escalating a “small incident’’ involving a Nigerian passenger and Egypt Air. He added that his embassy had contacted Egypt Air, which is wholly owned by the Egyptian government, and his home government on the incident but had yet to receive a formal report.

Below is the touching story from the young boy of how he was wrongly routed to Moldova instead of Kiev where he was to study medicine. From that mistake, he was stuck in airports over three days with no food, and then in Egypt, while trying to work out his situation, he was called a bloody Nigerian, and had his passport torn before being deported back to Lagos.
