The Chairman of INEC, Attahiru Jega, is presiding over the process of collating the results of the 2015 elections conducted this past weekend. The INEC chairman and other officials started the LIVE collations by 3PM Nigerian time and will resume 8PM Nigerian time. So far, 8 states and Abuuja results have been announced. APC took Kogi, Ogun, Ondo, Osun, and Oyo, while PDP took Ekiti, Enugu, FCT, Nasarawa.

Anton Kraft claims to be "the strongest man in the world" and this at only 4ft 4in tall! Anton Kraft broke records for weightlifting by being able to lift four times his own weight, according to him, "I am one of the five strongest guys in the world, regardless of height and weight. And I am the only guy in the world who has ever benched four-times his body weight." And now finally, the 52-year-old thinks it's time to settle down.

Mirror UK reports that the dwarf has revealed he hopes to break down further barriers by marrying his 6ft 3in transgender girlfriend. The bodybuilder, who is originally from Denmark but now lives in Florida, said he instantly fell for China Bell, despite the fact she was originally born a man.

#NigeriaDecides - Initial 2015 Presidential Election Results Are Probably Fake

Posted in: , , ,

Using the #NigeriaDecides hashtag for wider reach, the official INEC Nigeria Twitter account has warned that no announcements for the 2015 Presidential Election Results be made by any third parties. However, their threat has not stopped some sites from releasing unverified and probably cooked up and fake results for the elections which just held yesterday.

While it is very likely that most results from polling stations have been counted, I find it stretching credulity that LG level and State level results could have been collated overnight. It is probably advisable for all to wait till INEC to release final results in 48 hrs as they promised. APC may find themselves to be rejoicing too soon if they go by these results below...

Posted in: ,

Some Nigerian celebs could not make the on-going elections because they had some prior engagements outside the country like the PSquare brothers and Flavour in London, while others chose to leave the country for their own personal reasons. However, I'm impressed by the number of people in the entertainment industry who chose to get involved and inspire others to do the same. Among them are Ini Edo, Timi Dakolo, Banky W, Mo Abudu, Kunle Afolayan, Mercy Aigbe, Segun Demuren, Mocheddah, and more...

See Graphic Period Pictures Censored By Instagram + Poster's MUST-READ Open Letter

Posted in: , ,

Rupi Kaur, a Sikh poet studying at the University of Waterloo, Canada, posted an image of her during her period as part of her photo-series project for a visual rhetoric course on Instagram. The photo shows Rupi in bed with a patch of menstrual blood which had stained the same sweatpants she's wearing above, and had also leaked on the bedsheet.

The photo was subsequently taken down by Instagram citing violation of the 'Community Guidelines'. Though not outrightly against any overt photo guidelines on Instagram, I imagine several people who saw the photo were offended and reported to the site to take it down, and they did. However, Rupi decided to re-post the photo and wrote a powerful open letter to accompany. See the photo and read her post below...
