Simi, a Nigerian alternative musician  paid a visit to the BBNaija housemates on Monday, after her sterling performance at the eviction show on Sunday. She received a grand welcome presentationby the housemates with a dance routine they earlier rehearsed from one of her song titled, "Pardonmypun".




The house mates took turns to share their dreams and aspirations at the end of their stay in the house with the siimi. However each and everyone of the contestant in the house also took turns for a selfie with the singer.
Moreover, ThinTallTony (TTT) has emerged Head of the House (HOH) for this week and won't be needing viewer’s vote this week to stay in the house due to the winners immunity.

I dont know about you,  buy twitter has totally changed the way i watch television. I'm a big sports fan and a loyal Arsenal supporter.  I go most home games at the emirates stadium but when they play away I'll read whats been said on Twitter and join in by tweeting and retweeting.  When you cant be together to watch the game,  Twitter offers the chance to be together even when you are on your own.  I'm a great believer that social media and television are extremely complementary.
Like me,  more and more viewers are turning to social media to interact and participate in live conversation about TV. Understanding this social media buzz is extremely important to the TV  broadcast industry.
Thats why some groups have a global partnership with Twitter. They have an agreement to collaborate on new research products in the area of advertising effectiveness,  consumer satisfaction and media measurement.  They call it DATA OF NOW and they are confident it will allow them to to make real time predictive research a reality  for clients across a range of services and Copycart Integrated hopes to partner as well very soon.
They have also extended this exclusive global partnership with Twitter for provision of social TV ratings and Analytics. Towards the end of 2014 they unveiled the first official twitter metric for measuring Twitter TV audience engagement in the UK and Spain,  and since 2015 the agreement has continued to extend to include the Nordics,  Russia, as well as oart of Africa and South East Asia eventually covering up to 60+ markets. The new tool,  the partner groups Twitter TV ratings, uses geofiltered Twitter data to allow broadcasters,  media agencies and advertisers to track exactly how Twitter amplifies the power of television.
Some groups Twitter TV ratings makes available new metrics.  These include Unique Authors people tweeting and thier affinity to brands,  channels and programs ;
Unique Audiences using data only available to the partner group,  they are able to measure the number of users who viewed tweets related to individual broadcast;
Impressions similar to Unique Audience  except this shows the total number of actual views that tweets about a particular program have received. The new tool alo features existing metrics like the number of tweets and retweets about a program,  before, during and after transmission ; the average number of tweets per minute ascribed to that broadcast.
This is all assessed by the dashboard which includes a live,  real time leaderboard,  giving users a snapshot of the top tweeted program as they happen,  with the ability to focus in on the actual content of tweets in real-time too.
Twitter not only has the power to boost TV viewing during broadcast but that smaller channels and shows can boost their share of voice #digitization by employing effective twitter strategies.
The Twitter TV Ratings are already an amazing resource for broadcasters,  agencies and advertisers who are making use of offical new metric. They are able to assess programs and services,  planned program promotions more effectively and assist media buyers and sellers to integrate insights from social data more comprehensively into TV component of thier midia mix.
Partners have commenced wooon launching the twitter TV ratings across the world. They believe they will offer unparalleled insights into social TV audiences.  As we know Twitter can indeed amplify the power of TV so now its time to turn up the volume.
We know from our study 'A year in the UK released in October 2014, that Twitter not only has the power to boost TV viewing during broadcast but that smaller channels and shows can boost thier share of voice by employing effective Twitter strategies.
Based on the detailed examination of a years worth of exclusive data from both Twitter and BARB,  excluding news and live sports programs,  its key findings include that TV Tweets level broadly correlate with TV channels shares and programs or series viewing figures across a broad time period,  although some channels over-perform on Twitter relative to audience share. Also, that Twitter activity has a direct,  positive influence on viewing figures during broadcast for 11% of programs, boosting audiences by an estimated  2% during those shows.
Valentine celebration is almost upon us
and the endless circle of robotic moves
will soon start. Robotic moves because
almost everyone recycles typical gifts.
Flowers, wristwatches, dresses etc. the
usual. I reckon that every celebration of
love should come with some titillating
and spicy angle to it. So why do we have
almost the same kind of love sharing
experiences over and over?
In the spirit of love, we’ll share some
simple and creative valentine celebration
ideas with you. These, you can adopt to
add an exciting new twist to your
celebration this valentine. Come along as

we explore the options:

Surprise Get-Away After Work Hours
Unlike the last, this year’s valentine falls
on a workday, so it may be quite tricky to
plan something romantic. Considering the
stress of work and all, your bae may be
exhausted and tired.
Now, that is the opportunity. Bae is tired,
yes. So, what better valentine gift than a
surprise get-away? A place where both
of you will relax and enjoy an evening of
cool. No rushing to the kitchen to prepare
dinner or queuing for tickets at the
cinema. How would you fancy it if bae
surprises you with this?

Home-Made Dinner Amidst Candle-Lit
Atmosphere

It is not every time that you have the
chance to eat romantic dinners in a
perfumed atmosphere with bae. At least,
the bustling demands of working in Lagos
sees to it that it is not always possible to
have that.
So, giving bae his/her most craved
delicacy in a romantic home atmosphere
will be more than satisfying. You only
need to pre-make your props the night
before. Get home early enough to put
finishing touches to everything. Then, you
have fantasy land in your home for the
two of you.

Dress Up and Stay In

You might think this is absurd, but I bet
you it isn’t. Don’t forget the 14th is a
Tuesday. That means the week is still
fresh and workload at the office may still
be intense.
This option ensures you and boo don’t
miss out of all the hype and jazz of the
moment. Take a great bath together, put
on your outing dresses and sit in to have
a romantic chit chat. A private moment
like this helps you reminisce on how it all
started and project on achieving your
dreams and aspirations. You should try
this option out. You’ll love the relaxed
atmosphere.

Rent-A-Romance

Yes, that is exactly what I meant, rent
yourselves a romance. How do you do
this? You can either have it indoor or
outdoor.
For the outdoor options, you can rent a
power bike and have a jolly and fun-filled
ride around the estate with bae. Not in
your regular vehicles, no. it should be in a
vehicle that will evoke romance, fun and
that you can feel bonded in.
Ok, you and bea can’t pull off a power
bike ride, well I believe you can do so on
a bicycle. So, consider the idea of “being
my valentine on a bike!”
For outdoor option, you can get an old
movie and watch with some popcorn and
drinks. Make yourselves happy and comfy
right there in your home.

Get A matching Tattoo

This is for the weirdos and the daring
couples. What could be more funky and
romantic as getting a matching tattoo
with bae? I believe nothing can beat this.
You can opt for a ‘not-so-conspicuous’
part to be tatted on. The whole idea is
that you get a matching tattoo that both
of you can relate with. It will serve as the
bonding relic of a valentines day well
spent. While getting the tattoo, you can
book your favorite booze from the local
winery, bar or even a club! Or better still,
try out something new, a little whisky or
cognac. Just get your freak out! You can
bet there is no forgetting that experience.


Fulfil A Fantasy

You’ve known bae for a while now, and
you know what they’ve always craved
and desired. That thing that has always
been a desired fantasy.
Fulfilling this will not only blow your
bae’s heart but will also make them
know you value and have them at heart.
So folks, go all out and choose your
most preferred valentine celebration
option. All that matter is that you do
something out of the usual and
something memorable. Have a blissful
celebration in a bit.



Relationship Blogger, Joro Olumofin has taken time to share this to ladies, as he lists the qualities men look out for in today’s women.

See list:

Most men today are looking for the following:
1️. A Lady with an above decent paying Job ( at least 200 -250k)
2️. A lady with a foreign passport ( Born in the US or UK )
3️. A lady who has MBA or Msc. Bsc almost doesn’t count anymore
4️. A lady who has a car, some guys don’t want to pay for taxi fair anymore
5️. A lady who has her own place and doesn’t cramp his own personal space
6️. A lady whose parents have strong connections in Politics or Corporate world
7️. A lady who contributes money to every date, outing, bills payment etc .

Abraham Maslow, a renowned Psychologist in his hierarchy of needs theory stated that without Physiology we can not reach the love and belonging stage. I.e without ( food, water, basic needs) we can’t love appropriately. Has Maslow’s theory affected us as Nigerians as a result of the bad economy.
A lot of Nigerian men today are gradually moving towards ladies who have something to bring to the table. You hear things like. “Omo that babe dey drive benz she be wife material o”, “when I combine my income with the oil & gas babes own my empire go complete” .

This being said, the economy is always going to be a strong factor in our lives but let’s try find love amidst these hardships. You can be rich today and be poor tomorrow I.e the economy is a variable but when Love is built on a strong foundation it will be constant.

It is really sad that income, area you life, family connects, colour of your passport now takes front row seats over Personality attributes and traits.


The Director-General of the National Youth Service Corps, Brigadier General Suleiman Kazaure, has admonished corps members to stop seeking relocation from the North to other states, saying the region is no longer volatile.

According to him, more than 50 per cent of corps members sent to the North usually seek relocation to other parts of the country.

Kazure claimed that the recent development has not encouraged unity in diversity which the scheme preaches and stands for.

Addressing the 2016 Batch B Stream 2 corps members at the Niger State Permanent Orientation Camp in Paiko on Friday, Kazaure urged the corps members to keep an open mind and give the North a chance.

Kazaure, who was represented by the Director of Information and Communications Technology, Mrs. Christy Uba, said, “Do not dwell on the negative things you have heard about the North; do not seek relocation.

“I want to assure you that the people of the North are peaceful and friendly. Keep an open mind and give it a chance and a trial. Your being posted here was not by mistake; stay here and make some impact on the people of the state.”

The DG then encouraged the corps members to share their challenges with state and local government coordinators and desist from taking their grievances to the social media.”

In her address, the Niger State NYSC Coordinator, Mrs. Theresa Arokoyo, lamented the security challenges being faced at the camp, while calling on the state government to give corps members a permanent orientation camp that will be more secure.
