 Update on the condition of Matt Reum, the Indiana man that was discovered trapped in his vehicle near a creek after a wreck he had six days prior. Mr. Reum had to have his leg amputated from mid shin down, and is listed in critical condition.  He survived 6 days trapped in his vehicle unable to reach his cell phone to call 911.  Two men discovered Matt while the pair were looking for a fishing spot. The pair almost didn't even go that day. Luckily for Matt, they decided to set out and look for a fishing area on that particular creek.  Mario Garcia and his son in law Nivardo De La Torre, saw the man trapped in his vehicle. They approached and touched his face when suddenly Matt opened his eyes and started talking to them. Matt asked for their names because he never wants to forget who saved his life. This is truly an amazing story. Matt Reum stated, "No matter how tough things get, there is light at the end of the tunnel sometimes in the least expected way."

He spoke in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast co-hosted by actor Chinedu Ani Emmanuel, aka, Deity Cole and Husband Material. Alibaba said, “Sometimes some people will say I am not helping but 4/5 of the jokes you are telling are mine. “There was one guy who called me the other day, very popular skit maker. He pushed one video out. And it’s a joke about… This one happened in Warri when someone wanted to cut somebody’s light and they brought dogs and cutlasses and told the person, ‘When you finish come down.’ I told that joke 1988.

Dad wasn’t involved in my upbringing but now feels entitled – Erigga laments Nigerian hip-hop artist, Erhiga Agarivbie, better known as Erigga, has lamented that despite absconding from home at eight and training himself, his dad feels entitled to his wealth. He said his dad wasn’t involved in his upbringing but as soon as he became successful, he started reaching out to him and making demands. The Warri-born rapper disclosed this in the latest episode of the Spill With Phyna podcast. Erigga said, “When you see parents start feeling entitled, it doesn’t make sense because you had many years ahead of me, why didn’t you make it before me? People don’t really address this entitlement mentality in Africa. “I was facing the street alone. I was involved in too many things that I can’t even say on camera. And I just keep wondering like what if I was shot or arrested? Because most of the people I was with then are either dead or in jail. “I’ve to start raising myself at the age of 8. I started

 "I met my husband in Enugu, he was a youth corper then in Enugu. I was also posted to Enugu. So a friend of mine visited me and she came along with her boyfriend who also came along with my husband. That was how we met and it was love at first sight. I think people frown at love at first sight but it worked for us.  I fell in love with his broad shoulders. Then he was really looking very cute. I can still remember what he was wearing that day – a red shirt, long sleeves and jeans trousers. That was 37 years ago. He couldn’t even take me out because he didn’t have money as a youth corper. It was quite magnetic and that was it. There is a 3-year age difference between us. I am older than him anyway. I was like 25 then while he was 22. It was love that really endured.
