Actress Lilian Esoro Reveals Secret Behind Her Failed Marriage With Ubi Franklin

According To Vanguard Popular TV series actress Lilan Esoro has revealed reasons as to what led to her failed marriage to Ubi Franklin.

According to reports, a filmmaker and closed friend to the thespian, who pleaded anonymity, say she always complained about how distanced her husband was.

“He never showed up in any of her filming location and this was often a thing of worry for Lilian” he said.

Other reports stated infidelity and physical abuse as other reasons their wedding packed up 4 months ago, immediately their son Jayden was born.

Recall that words once emerged on the street saying Lilian wanted to marry another Nollywood actor who is now married, but opted for Ubi who was a backup plan from the start. And their marriage is said to be loveless from the beginning. Another claim alleged that Ubi Franklin wasn’t even plan B as she has always been the girlfriend of a very successful comedian.

However, Entertainment commentators say Lilian Esoro said no when Ubi Franklin initially proposed but he did all he can to convince her including her family as he was overly generous to them.

Recession: “We Are Missing Nigerians” – Dubai Luxury Shops Cry Out

Dubai luxury shops are feeling the absence of Nigerians who have been kept away from their usual travels to Asia’s shopping capital by a weaker naira and higher airfares, Businessday reports.

Nigerians who typically buy huge volumes of luxury goods are cutting down on their expenses. “Before now, purchases from Nigerians made up about 18% of our market share, but it has dropped to about eight percent this year. .

I tell you the truth, we really miss Nigerians here and we hope things get better so that they can shop again as they used to,” Bilal Chaouch, sales manager, Paul Smith, said.

“We hope the government in Nigeria will help provide dollars for Nigerians to come and shop here as they use to do. We hope things get better because patronage by Nigerians has been part of our success story,” he added.

Johanna Pascual, sales manager, Accessorize, also said Nigerians often bought accessories in large quantities but there has been a sharp drop this year because only few Nigerians have been visiting recently and those who come do not buy as much as they used to.

“I always believed Nigerians were very rich people because when they came to buy gold, they always bought in large quantities and paid immediately. But that has changed now. We have not sold as much as we sold accessories by this time last year,” Pascual disclosed.

Gilbert, a sales representative of Timex, said he has observed a sharp drop in demand from Nigerians for luxury brands. The Dubai attraction has lost its shine as Nigerians now struggle at the airports to get dollars to travel unlike before when they could easily travel with the cards and shop in over 200 countries around the world.

“It Was Difficult To Get Roles Because Of My Dark Complexion” – Mercy Johnson

Nollywood actress and mother of three, Mercy Johnson Okojie in this recent chat with Saturday beats has revealed some producers did not give her movie roles because of her complexion.

She said that when she started out in the Nigerian movie industry, most
movie directors and producers always preferred to cast fair-skinned ladies at the expense of talented but dark-skinned ones.

“It is very true that when I was starting out in the movie industry, it was difficult to get roles because of my complexion. I faced that a lot and I tell people that my success is just grace. Somebody once told me that I am too dark but that is where the grace and favour of God comes in. Regardless of everything, most of the dark-skinned actresses that are my contemporaries made it,” she said.

The actress also told Saturday Beats that it would be unfair of anyone to say she features in any movie without any consideration.

“It is not true that I pick just any movie role. People are different and what appeals to one person might not appeal to the other. One of my most popular movies is ‘Dumebi Goes to School’ and I know how many actresses rejected that script before I accepted to do it. That movie has been one of the highest selling movies in Nollywood till date. I think it is not fair for anyone to say I just jump on any movie production.

As human beings, our strength is in our diversity and differences; this means that what you call trash might not be trash to someone else. I select my scripts and I work with all of my heart because acting is my passion. When I read a script and it appeals to me, I have fun while I do it,” the actress said.

“Any Woman Who Refuse Her Husband Sex Even If Its Only Once Has Sinned Against Allah” – Islamic Expert On Marriage Counselling Reveals

A Muslim police chaplain has been ordered to explain himself after heallegedly claimed that women “sin” if they do not consent to sex with their husbands.

Musleh Khan, who claims to be an expert on marriage counselling, believes that a wife must be completely obedient to their husband, according to a leaked presentation.

The new police chaplain reportedly said that unless a woman is ill, or is fasting during the holy month of Ramadan, they must consent to sex when their husband demands it.

He allegedly said:

 “Without a valid reason then she committed a major sin.
“So sisters it’s part of your act of worship towards Allah that you try to respond to this as best you can as part of your duties as the wife.”

Khan also reportedly advised women that they should seek permission from their husbands just to leave their home.

The perturbing comments came in a question and answer session at Ummah Nabawiah Mosque in Ontario, Canada, in 2015, where Khan explained that a girl is fit to be married whenever she hits puberty.

Speaking about Mohammed’s marriage to nine year-old Aisha in the Koran, he reportedly said:

“Nine year-olds back then are comparable to 20 to 30 year-olds now.
“Back then at nine years old you were mature enough and you could get married.”

DailyExpressUK reports that the president of the Toronto Police Association, Mike McCormack, received a torrent of emails about the chaplain’s views and said Mr Khan “needs to clarify his comments.”

“Covenant University’s School Fees Has God’s Approval, My Critics Risk God’s Wrath” – David Oyedepo

The Bishop of the Living Faith Church worldwide, has appealed to those criticising the school fees charged by Covenant University to desist to avoid incurring the wrath of God. He said the critics were acting in ignorance and risked incurring the wrath of God.

He said one of such critic smitten with a strange plague of chronic mouth odour over the act only received spiritual pardon following his confession and “my intervention before he was restored to dignity.”

Oyedepo said the issue of school fees paid by students of the university was a godly agenda to meet the demands of raising godly children in an environment conducive for learning.

He said such criticisms were products of ignorance as what students pay could not be compared with what obtained elsewhere that lacked facilities. “The school fees has Gods approval and is in accordance with the quality of facilities provided by the university in meeting the educational needs of the nation,” he said.
