Speaking as a guest at the just concluded Nigerian Entertainment  Conference (NEC), the actress said; “Somebody on a blog a few days ago wrote that there are Nollywood personalities who are friends with politicians, sharing the national cake together.

A United States-based Professor of  Education, Georgianna Duarte, has canvassed the need for more male teachers in schools, especially at the early childhood level. She spoke on Wednesday in Lagos on the sidelines of a Focus on the Young Child Education summit organised by a group, Early Years Consult Limited. FOYC initiative seeks to raise the quality of early childhood education and care in Nigeria and Africa to the global best practice standard. Duarte, who lamented the dearth of male teachers across the globe, described the development as a “disturbing one”. According to the professor of Early Childhood Education at the University of Texas-Rio Grande Valley, the masculine elements will do some good to the school system. She said, “The dearth of male teachers is a challenge in Nigeria and in many parts of the world. It is a problem internationally. I believe that our classrooms should have masculine elements. “We need to recruit more men in the early childhood educati

from Real Buzz We all have certain activities we love, but did you know you could be addicted to your favourite hobby? Check out the 10 surprising things you may be addicted to. 1: Surfing the internet You may think that browsing the internet is nothing more than a pleasant way to pass some time. However, researchers in China revealed that internet addiction actually alters the brain in a similar way to addictions to drugs and alcohol. It is thought that sufferers of Internet addiction disorder (IAD) could face similar symptoms to those suffering from other addictions, including withdrawal symptoms. One study of users of internet-ready smartphones found that many are so addicted to their device they now hear “phantom vibrations” in their desperation to receive a message. 2: Falling in love We all know that person who goes from relationship to relationship, never seeming to spend more than five minutes alone. Well, according to research, it may be that they are actually

in Share by Julia Melko Dating a player is a huge challenge and it’s not every woman’s dream. But sometimes a woman falls in love so quickly and strongly that she doesn’t want to realize that she is dating a player. If you realize that you are dating with a player, but don’t want to break up with him, here are a few important things to know when dating a player. Dating a player can be quite dangerous and can even lead to a heartbreak. Remember it. 1. Insincere conversations Normal relationship usually consists of sincere and trusting talks and frank treatment. It’s wonderful when you can share common goals, plans, dreams and when we are curious about the past. The player isn’t the one who is really interested in all these points. Your talks usually contain superficial information. 2. Cancellations all the time Do you often get calls or messages that your date is going to be cancelled again? Moreove

Yesterday, April 23, was World Book and Copyright Day. The theme for this year’s was “History and Stories”, to celebrate the contribution of books and authors to our global culture and the connection between copyright and books. Nigeria leads in the global league of States with the largest number of children of school age that are out of school and also has an estimated level of illiteracy at 70 per cent of its adult population. The essence of the day should hopefully intrigue Nigerian leaders enough, to rouse them to begin to fund, motivate and prioritise creative and research enterprises. This would enable us appreciate in greater depth books as the most potent vectors of values and knowledge, and depositories of the intangible heritage that propels development. As windows onto the diversity of cultures, books serve as sources of material wealth and this is why effective copyright laws must be enacted to protect works of creative artists. More importantly, our governmen

by Dr. Shauna H. Springer When one looks to one’s partner to be any type of drug instead of a living, breathing human being with an agenda of his or her own, the result is often a short-lived bond . In terms of motivations for marriage , thus far I’ve been focusing mostly on delusional thinking processes caused by fantasies we create during the cocaine-rush phase of relationships. For example, within the context of a short courtship, two delusional reasons for getting married are “because it feels like I’ve known you forever, even though we just met” and “because our love story would make a great movie.” There are a number of other equally bad reasons to take the plunge. These generally fall into three categories—anxiety, inadequacy, and self-centered pragmatics. If you are contemplating marriage or are “on the hunt” for a spouse, I’d advise you to get honest with yourself and plumb the depths of your motivations. Do your motivations stem from any of the following thoug

by Amy Shearn We’ve heard it again and again: Don’t expect that you can revise (or worse, correct) someone. Loving people means loving them the way they are. 1. Stop Expecting People: To Be Your Partner in Crime A group of friends and I had been out late one night when I saw it there, glowing like a beacon: the 24-hour frozen-yogurt stand. “You  have  to get something with me,” I urged a friend’s girlfriend, who I didn’t know well. At my insistence, she came with, and after I ordered a Snickers-covered chocolate something, she reluctantly ordered a small lemonade. It took me a good while to realize that she had a lot of reasons for not wanting to be my partner in crime: She was out of money, she had to be up early and was hoping to head home. I’d thought it would be a fun, dorm-room-y bonding moment, but in the end, I was forcing the connection, as if only her enjoyment would justify my own. Ditto for staying up all night, ditto for spending a lot of money on fancy soap

by Meghna Mukherjee If nagging and yelling has not come to your rescue yet, try some other way of addressing this problem. Sometimes you just need to find out another way to get your partner hear you out.   Communication problems are something that happens in every relationship. But that does not mean that you give up on your relationship. Here are some ways you can resolve the issue. Realise your relationship has a problem  The most important and probably one of the first things to solving this problem is that you acknowledge the fact that you are having problems in your relationship. Once you admit that there is something that is going wrong between the two of you, talking it out will become simpler. Talk about it  Normally when you don’t talk at all about your problems, what is bothering you or anything at all with your partner, it tends to bring out a communication problem in your relationship. Often couples don’t seem to recognise this problem and they go about igno

Harrysong a.k.a Mr. Songz has reacted to the story making rounds on the blog about his parents, the news item culled from a supposed interview he had with a magazine and published on the 22nd of April, 2014. The sought after songwriter and singer finds it appalling that an interview of such would be fabricated and published. 'I have not granted any magazine an interview in the last 12 months where I spoke about my late parent so I find it worrisome, disheartening that a magazine would manufacture a story like such.

Oh dear, we have got some gangster here baby. New kid on the block, rapper Godwon who exposed Sinzu in an alleged ATM theft in the United States, have told his fans that if they thought the only thing he does was music, then they are wrong. He admitted he stole candy back then ( at least that’s the one we saw on an American website) and also dropped a quick one by hitting back at Sinzu’s fans, that they are stupid as F*ck and it's quite simple!
