How my marriage was saved by this bedroom solution by dimexy247(m) : 8:51 pm On May 20

You are about the read the dirtiest thought of an unsatisfied wife!



So before you read on, be prepared to understand what your wife goes through when you are not 100% of the man you should be for her.

My name is Adaobi and I am married to a caring husband by the name of Frederick Babatunde. Even though Frederick is a man of any woman’s dream, He lacked one thing that is most important to us women even though we find it hard to publicly accept.

Frederick couldn’t observe his manly duties, I don’t mean the material things because Frederick is 100% with that. But the Manly duties that makes a woman moan in ecstasy. And I’m sharing with you my side of the story before I let Frederick take over and tell you his ordeal, the problem and how he found the solution that has long eluded him.

It’s very easy for us women to say everything is alright in our bedroom when we are at the verge of losing our mind and I am no exclusion because I was at the verge of doing what I never thought I could ever do – cheat on my Frederick.

If not for the sworn covenant of “For Better For Worse”, I would probably have slept with another man due to frustration of not getting what I need in the bedroom from my husband.

For so many years, I was dying in silence, the feeling of unsatisfaction was driving me insane and I didn’t know what to do. Then finally the idea of cheating on my husband started playing in my head. At first when it comes to mind, I quickly kick it out but every time Frederick leaves me unsatisfied with his small Johnson and spilling his thick milk in less than 1 minute, my mind start playing games on me by bringing the thought of getting what Frederick was lacking from another guy.

Sometimes I fantasized about meeting a guy that will give it to me hard without any strings attached, I needed to be satisfied so bad that it started affecting my closeness with Frederick. If not for the fear of God and the saving grace that Frederick accepted that he was not 100% when it comes to satisfying me, I would have probably lost my way or become a shadow of myself, also because we could talk about it without any of us cursing on each other.

The fact is, we women are human, we want to be satisfy sexually and if don’t get it, the worse ideas comes to our mind. So your wife is no exception to this rule if you don’t do something about it quickly before it gets out of hand. But I was lucky because as much as we discussed about it, Frederick didn’t stop looking for a solution to his twin problem of small Johnson and 1 minute man-ness (if there is a word like that)

Frederick tried everything the doctors recommended but couldn’t get one that will totally fix the situation. Some recommendations where harmful or had side effects. After years of trying different things that didn’t work for my husband, few months ago, we found a heaven sent natural solution that worked like magic.

In fact just few days after discovering this solution, Frederick drove me to cloud 9 and back after many years. My joy knew no bounds that day. Not only because Frederick now has a Johnson big enough to fill my honey pot or because he can now go on and on for 30 minutes till I beg him to come, but because I can finally clear off the thoughts of cheating on my caring and loving husband from my mind. You can hear from him here http://fredrickbabatunde.com/na/

Will you like to discover exactly what Frederick found that helped me get rid of his 1 minute man-ness and small Johnson? As for me, I am the luckiest and happiest wife I can be to my husband because he didn’t neglect my emotions and feeling, he went all the way without giving up till he found the secret solution that eluded him for years.

It is your own turn to do the same for your wife, fiancé or girlfriend. You will finally be able to hear my husband’s side of the story and see exactly how he found the solution and how you too can also lay your hand on the solution.

5 points men always notice about women during sex by dimexy247(m) : 9:13 pm On May 20

Women tend to be overly-conscious about the way they look during sex. But guess what? Most of the things that women are afraid men would notice are definitely details that really don’t catch their eyes. They are set to noticing more than the physical; in fact, they are more into the details of how the whole experience will go.



Behaviors during the lovemaking and the chemistry are what guys see. They are more concerned about whether they are turning you on or not. If you still are confused, read the five things that men usually notice about you during sex:

1. Your Initiative
If we’re doing all the work and you’re just sort of hanging out to see what’s going to happen next, we’re going to think you’re not all that interested. So show a little excitement, eh? Take the lead in unbuckling or unclasping something. Roll us over, and get on top. Help us make this moment awesome.

2. The Way Your Body Moves
If you’re stiff, it puts a chill on the moment. We wonder if there’s a problem or if you’re feeling self-conscious. But if you’re revved up and sensual, that turns us on. We want to feel your body writhe against us. We want your chest to press against ours, to feel your thigh slide up between ours. The more you engage your entire body in the moment, the more we feel like you’re excited to be with us.

3. Your Eyes
Are you looking deeply into ours? Are you checking out our freshly naked bodies? Both options are good. What makes us uncomfortable is if you’re looking down (are you having doubts?), checking out your own body (feeling self-conscious?), or gazing off to the wall or ceiling (just bored?). So make sure your eyes aren’t telling us something you don’t want them to. Let us know you’re pumped to be here with us.

4. Your Breath
No, I’m not talking about whether it stinks (although—let’s hope it doesn’t!). I’m talking about how it sounds. Is it heavier than usual? Similarly, is your voice deeper? These clues tell us whether you’re genuinely aroused. You don’t need to play it up by panting like you just ran a 5-K or trying to mimic the deeper notes on an organ. But if you’re getting into it, let it show. Let us feel your breath against our neck, whisper something sexy into our ear, let us know you can’t wait for what’s about to happen. Our arousal feeds off of yours, so don’t be afraid to be visibly turned on.

5. If You’re Freshly Waxed or Wearing Expensive Lingerie
Hey—no judgment if you’re not. But the prep work implies that you were thinking about sex, and we’re all for that. After all, so were we. Glad we’re on the same page here!

Trouble looms as Amaechi, Sirika engage in power tussle by dimexy247(m) : 9:26 pm On May 20

– Sirika is said to be showing insubordination to his direct boss, Amaechi

– Sources say this may not be unconnected to his (Sirika’s) relationship with President Buhari

– Amaechi is said not to be taking the acts with a pinch of salt

– Aviation workers express disappointment over the public squabbles of the ministers

There is a mild war brewing in President Muhammadu Buhari’s cabinet between Rotimi Amaechi and Hadi Sirika, Signal reports.

Amaechi is Nigeria’s minister of Transport while Sirika is the minister of state for Aviation and the pair are said to be at loggerheads over reported acts of insubordination by the latter.

According to Signal, sources revealed that both ministers were close to exchanging physical blows on Monday save for the intervention of some civil servants and aides who were at the scene of the disagreement.


Sirika is reportedly reluctant to have Amaechi (a senior minister and direct boss) push him around. But the former Rivers state governor is on the other hand, not having any of Sirika’s acts and is working to put him in his place.

The reason for the junior minister’s acts, sources disclosed, is the fact that he is from President Buhari’s Katsina north senatorial district, where he served as a senator.

A source explained details of the incident to Signal thus: “It’s all about power tussle. Sirika thinks Amaechi is overstepping his boundaries and should mind his business as Transport Minister. But Amaechi is also in charge of Aviation.

“He is the senior minister, while Sirika as Minister of State for Aviation is junior minister. But Sirika sees himself as the President’s guy. So, he refuses to take directives from Amaechi and now Amaechi is feeling undermined.

“This has led to a big power play between both men. It is becoming so messy that even the official portraits of both ministers are missing at the airports. That’s why Amaechi was doing maritime summit in Lagos while Sirika was doing aviation in Abuja.”

When contacted on Wednesday to explain why both ministers’ portraits were absent at airports across the country, Yakubu Datti, the general manager, corporate communications, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN), said: “We are awaiting the official portraits of the ministers. They are yet to send them in to us.”

Pressed further on whether the tussle between the ministers is the reason for the absence of their portraits at the airports, Datti explained that Amaechi’s portrait is at the airport, explaining that only Sirika’s image was not present.

“It is one ministry with one permanent secretary. So it is only the portrait of the senior minister that should be there,” he noted.

Civil servants in the aviation sector have expressed their embarrassment over the tussle between both ministers, especially because they have brought their misunderstanding to public glare.

A senior government official who pleaded anonymity, said: “It is a shame. Both ministers are embarrassing themselves publicly. It is a mess. And President Buhari on his part has been silent over this issue. He should call them to order immediately.

“The aviation and transport sectors are very key sectors of our economy. We can’t continue to have two adults who should know better fighting over the pettiness of who is in charge or control of what. When two elephants fight, unfortunately, it is the ground that suffers.

“Nigerians are the ones who will bear the brunt over this unnecessary squabble.”

Meanwhile, Nigerians have asked President Buhari to, without delay, remove Amaechi from his cabinet over corrution allegations leveled against the former Speaker of Rivers state House of Representatives.

Amaechi was accused of diverting APC campaign funds during the presidential election but he has denied ever being involved in the said act of corruption.

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has described President Muhammadu Buhari as an honest and straightforward man who would not loot the country’s treasury.

“‎Today, we came here to appeal to you. Go back to history, we worked real hard to bring Nigeria on progressive path. For me a progressive government is all about the welfare of the people.

“Mr president, the former president of NLC, and senators are here to make it clear that you are not an enemy of a government that is progressive.

“This is by the way, we must introduce history… the political history of the country is not being taught in schools anymore.

“Buhari is straightforward. We didn’t say we won’t have problems with him, but he has integrity.

“They brought in SURE-P, but the only thing about SURE-P is corruption.‎ It was sure stealing, sure diversion….

“Buhari will listen to us‎; we will work together to make this change possible.

“I can swear that Buhari will not touch a penny for personal gain. He has that character and integrity to steer Nigeria.

“Let us look at a new mechanism of doing things.

“Let us work together for a government that we know is honest. My mission here is for peace, for us to return to the negotiating table.

“Let us build Nigeria, let us make it the centre piece of Africa.

“Let us call off this strike. I c‎ome to beg on behalf of my party.”

No weapon was found in Dasuki’s guest house – DSS by dimexy247(m) : 1:31 am On May 21



The Federal High Court in Abuja was yesterday informed that no weapon was found in the guest house of the residence of former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd), when it was searched by operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, last year.
At the resumed trial of Dasuki on charges of unlawful possession of firearms, the government witness, Mr. Samuel Ogbu who was under cross examination confirmed no incriminating items was found in the guest house.

Ogbu, who is an operative of DSS, was cross-examined by counsel to Dasuki, Mr. Ahmed Raji (SAN) and insisted that the only weapons recovered was in the house of the ex-NSA.

The witness told Justice Adeniyi Ademola that some money was found in Dasuki’s house but that he would not know whether the defendant committed money laundering offence or not because he does not know the definition of money laundering under the law.

Further trial has been adjourned till June 8 and 9 2016 at the instance of Dasuki’s lawyers.

Pastor Caught Hawking “Fetish” Meat In Ondo Apprehended. (Photo) by dimexy247(m) : 1:36 am On May 21



A self- acclaimed pastor with one of the Pentecostal churches, was arrested for allegedly hawking fetish items in Akure, the Ondo State capital.

The pastor, Adeniyi Johnson, said to be mentally challenged, was arrested by resident of Ijomu in Akure metropolis while hawking the items as fried meat in the area. The pastor, according to eyewitness account, brought out the items from his pocket and put them inside a tray before hawking.

EchoNg gathered that those who saw him immediately raised alarm and were trying to lynch him before some elders intervened and suggested he should be taken to the Oba’s palace.

Reports had it that the suspect, who is in police custody, was formally in the Iju/Ita Ogbolu branch of the church, before he was transferred to Ipogun branch.

When he was reportedly quizzed by the palace chiefs, the suspect said he was divinely instructed to share the items so as to save his ailing son.

On hearing his confession, the crowd that followed him to the palace attempted to stone him to death, but the palace chiefs reportedly prevented them as the suspect was taken into the inner chambers of the Oba.

The suspect reportedly told the chiefs that his son was dying and that unless people eat the fried meat he was hawking that the son might not survive.

He was said to have pleaded with those who arrested him to allow him finish what he had started so as to save his dying son. The chiefs later arranged for his transfer to the custody of the Police.

EchoNg learned that he is being detained at the Police Area Command headquarters of the state for interrogation. Sources at his church revealed that he had been sacked over a month ago to enable his family take care of his mental problem.

Beautiful Egyptair MS804 Stewardess Had Posted A Photo Of Plane Crashing Into The Sea. by dimexy247(m) : 1:42 am On May 21



An air hostess on EgyptAir flight MS804 had posted a picture of a stewardess with a plane crashing into the sea on Facebook, it has emerged.

According to Daily Mail, Samar Ezz Eldin, 27, uploaded the controversial image in September 2014 just four months after she started working at Egypt’s national carrier.

It shows another air hostess dressed smartly in wet clothes pulling a carry-on suitcase out of the water with an image of a passenger jet plunging into the sea behind her.



Miss Eldin, who studied modern languages at the Ain Shams University in Cairo, was among the first victims to be named as investigators admitted the cause of the disaster was still a mystery.

DAVIDO REVEALS HIS TEAM MEMBERS ARE STEALING FROM HIM (PHOTOS) by dimexy247(m) : 8:55 am On May 21



Davido may be having internal issues with his gang. Yesterday, the ‘Aye’ singer took to his Snapchat to reveal that yet-to-be-identified members of his team are beginning to steal his money, and this comes just a day after he posted yet another photo of wads of dollars on the platform.

“Oh lord, keep me calm,” Davido wrote on Snapchat yesterday, adding, “they [are] stealing my money now.” However, he did not reveal any names.



This comes as a surprise especially because the HKN gang boss never fails in plunging incredulous amount of money just to buy lavish presents for his team. In April, after he bagged the N100 million-Pepsi deal, he revealed he went diamond shopping for each member of his team, and this was weeks after he had gifted each person a Rolex President wristwatches, valuing at least $8,000 (N1.5m) each.

And so, who will be stealing from Davido? Knowing how he outed his cousin B-Red for being jealous of Mayor Kun, we guess it won’t be long before he spills it all.

Buhari didn’t receive rescued Chibok girl & her Boko Haram husband – Presidency by dimexy247(m) : 8:59 pm On May 21



The Presidency has refuted reports that President Muhammadu Buhari received at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, the rescued Chibok girl, Amina Ali alongside the suspected Boko Haram member claiming to be her husband.
This message was posted on the official Facebook page of the Presidency, Aso Rock Villa, on Friday.

According to the message, the man who accompanied Amina to meet Buhari was her brother and not her supposed husband, who is an alleged Boko Haram commander.

The message reads, “Our attention has been drawn to rumours and insinuations that the young man who accompanied Amina Ali to the State House to meet President Buhari is her alleged terrorist abductor.

“This is false; there is absolutely no truth to it. The young man who was in the State House alongside Amina and her baby and mother is her older brother.

“He is different from the man who appeared with her in photos released by the Nigerian military, in the immediate aftermath of Amina’s rescue.

“All insinuations alleging otherwise are false, mischievous, and should be wholly disregarded.

“Under no circumstances will a presidential welcome be extended to terrorists or abductors.”

Nigeria: ASUU Protests, Says Fuel Price Hike a 'Terror Policy' by dimexy247(m) : 2:07 am On May 22

The Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) Zonal Coordinator of Ibadan, Professor Segun Ajiboye has described the increment in the pump price of petrol by the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government as a 'terror policy'.

Ajiboye, while addressing a crowd of anti-subsidy removal protesters in front of the University of Ibadan gate yesterday, stated that the pain of Nigerians in the past one year had become unbearable and required a mass anti-terror movement to check it.

Also addressing the rally, the NLC state chairman, Comrade Waheed Olojede asked Nigerians not to see the strike as a labour struggle alone but a joint movement to check anti-masses policies.

In many parts of Lagos, commercial activities were briefly disrupted as members of ASUU and other affiliate unions of the NLC made good their threats as they staged what they called sensitization rally across major streets.

In his remark, the ASUU chairman, University of Lagos (UNILAG) Capter, Dr Adelaja Odukoya said the protesting workers were glad that they were able to live up to their threats.

In Katsina State, members of the academic union of Umaru Musa Yaradu'a University (UMYU), joined the strike. Lectures and other academic activities were disrupted at the institution yesterday as students were told to stay away.

The branch chairman of ASUU, Dr. Jamilu Shehu said there was no way for the branch to opt out since it was a national directive. But commercial banks, courts and government offices remained open for businesses since the commencement of the strike.

In Kano, a group of activists, Kano Civil Society Forum, protested the increment of petrol price, describing it as an 'inhuman and anti-masses policy'. The protesters who stormed the Kano office of Media Trust Limited, carried placards with inscriptions, "Kachikwu must go", "Removal of subsidy is callous", and "No food for the poor in Ramadan." Speaking on behalf of the protesters, Musa Bashir, the Secretary-General of the group, said they were opposing the increment because of the pains it would inflict on the masses.

“It Is Unfair To Marry One Wife, Other Women Will Be Useless” – 9ice by dimexy247(m) : 2:16 am On May 22



Singer 9ice, whose real name is Abolore Akande, thinks the idea of a monogamous marriage is unfair to women.

According to Daily Post, the singer opened up in a new interview with Ebony Life TV, where he talked about his plans to marry more than one wife and have as many children he wants. The ‘Gongo Aso’ crooner, added that women would end up useless if men were to take only one wife.

“We have more women currently. If one man marries just one wife, other women will be useless,” the singer said, adding, “I’m a product of a polygamous family that is why I am also productive; because there are more women than men, it would be unfair if a man marries one wife.”

Recall that 9ice insinuated through his song ‘Once Bitten, Twice Shy’, that his ex wife Toni Payne cheated on him, and this plagued their relationship and led to their breakup.

In January, years after the their separation, the singer made peace with Ms Payne through a statement issued on his Instagram, clearing the mother of his child of all rumours of cheating.

9ice has four children; with ex wife Toni Payne, he has a son and a set of twins with Victoria Godis. His present partner, Sunkanmi Ajala, has a daughter for him.
