IS IT OK TO DATE YOUR FRIEND'S EX?

When it comes to dating your friend’s ex, most of us know “The Code.”  It’s that Girl Code that contains the unspoken rule that dating your friend’s ex is TOTALLY out of the question. He’s off limits…period. But are there any “loopholes” when it comes to this “rule?” For example, what if they dated in school and you’re now 30 years old and your best friend is married to another amazing guy? What then? Is it okay to go after a friend’s ex after a certain amount of time has passed? And if so, how long is long enough? Pls share your thoughts.

KEMI OLULONYE TAKES HER SOCIAL MEDIA MADNESS TO ANOTHER LEVEL, CALLS JESUS GAY

I have refrained from talking about this woman on my blog because she's not worth talking about. To me she's just an aging woman who is trying desperately to be relevant while desperately holding on to her youth that has long passed. This is what she wrote on Twitter and I just feel sorry for her now. If you want to know who she is, Google her 'cos I don't have time to waste on profiling her here. See more of her blasphemous tweet and Stella's response after the cut...

AGAIN?! FIVE YEAR-OLD GIRL RAPED FOR 4 DAYS BY NEIGBOUR IN INDIA

The 5-year-old rape victim is covered by a sheet as she is transported to a specialist unit from Swami Dayanand Hospital, Delhi, today
A five year old girl is fighting for her life after she was raped by a neighbour in India. She was kidnapped while playing outside her home and was held captive for four days. She went missing on Monday and was found on Thursday when someone heard her cries for help.The neighbour is believed to have repeatedly raped the child, mutilated her genitals and tried to strangle her. Specs of blood can be seen on the sheet used to cover her above.

Doctors found ‘foreign objects’ inside her genitals including a 200ml bottle and parts of a broken candle. She also suffered injuries and bruising to her chest, lips and cheeks.  The Doctor who examined her said it was ‘one of the worst cases’ he had ever seen, and that the next 48 hours will be crucial in determining her chances of survival. 

My heart is so heavy right now 'cos I have a lil' girl and I cannot begin to imagine what that poor child must have gone through. Pls say a prayer for this little one.  This is the third rape of a minor in India this month, all the girls were raped by neigbours. A student doctor also died from the injuries she sustained while she was raped in bus in India last year. This is one case too many, the Indian government needs to wake up and fight this barbaric and ugly trend with all they've got.

Two weeks ago, many families mourned, following the death of no fewer than 80 people, including 57 passengers of a commercial luxury bus, which collided with a fuel tanker in Ugbogui, on the Benin-Lagos expressway and burst into flames. The victims were burnt beyond recognition and were given mass burial last week. However, today the family of Kenneth Chinedu Nwaokoro, a 24-year-old final year student of Information Technology of Caritas University, Enugu, who survived the accident, is rejoicing.

This lucky young man, from Imo State, was returning to Enugu to complete his final year project, after visiting his brother in Lagos. He is currently on admission at the Orthopaedic Hospital, Enugu. Narrating what happened and how he survived, Nwaokoro told Saturday Sun: “When we left the park to embark on the journey, our bus was half filled; so the driver picked passengers along the road until the bus was filled, except for the seat beside me, which I did not allow anybody to occupy.
