RE: ARMY DEMOLISH PROPERTY IN KADUNA.{PHOTO}.

-
Image
        1.​ The attention of the 1 Division Nigerian Army has been drawn to a Twitter message, report in mass and social media of alleged involvement of military personnel in the demolition of a politician’s property by KASUPDA in Kaduna, Kaduna State.This is not true. No Nigerian Army soldier was involved in the exercise.The allegation and the attempt to drag the Nigerian Army into the issue of demolition is yet another baseless and unsubstanti ated claim to malign the hardworking, loyal and professional officers and soldiers of 1 Division Nigerian Army and discredit them. 2.Contrary to claims, the troops of 1 Division have not been involved in any illegal activity of either harassment of politicians or demolition of their properties in Kaduna and its environs. Therefore this claim remains the highest mischief and misleading and it is viewed as another calculated attempt to distract our troops from performing their professional duties. Therefore, the public should disregard such f

WEARING RED & RED IS NOT A FASHION CRIME+MY COMPLETE SUNDAY LOOK+OTHER FASHION PHOTOS.{PHOTOS}.

Image
      Wearing red and red is not a fashion a crime.The only fashion red crime here is when you try to wear red and red and you don't match the red well.If you want to take such red risk,make sure they are all the same red colour.You can only block two different types of red if you are adding another colour like a white shoe,or black purse,or gold belt.On Wednesday February 14 was Valentine day and also ash Wednesday.Though I saw a lot of people wearing red,I could not celebrate mine that day because as a Catholic we should be fasting and praying that day.So on Sunday,I decided to show off my Valentine style to church.I wore all-round red,from my gown,necklace set,purse and shoes.Then I wore a gold stud watch and bracelet to ease the red tension.I had to mix two colour of red lipstick,so that it will match the colour of my red gown and jewellery.More photos below.
