 I’ve always been mocked, insulted over my huge size — Angel Babaorobo A comedian and skit maker, Usman Taiye, aka Angel Babaorobo, tells FAITH AJAYI about his journey as a content creator, his size and other issues  What is your educational background? My journey into the world of content creation has been shaped by different experiences and challenges that have influenced my life. I managed to finish primary school, which I considered a significant milestone in my early life. However, continuing my education beyond that point was a daunting task, due to the financial constraints my parents faced. The lack of resources meant that I could not further my education beyond that point; and, that actually defined much of my life. When did you become active on social media? In 2016, I made my entry into the world of social media. This marked a significant turning point in my life. Social media opened up a world of possibilities and opportunities that I had not previously imagined existed. It

The Washington County Sheriff's Department maintains "they are not a taxi service." They said this before and after Donna's body was found.

Tacha Akide has replied to Sarah Martins, Micheal Uba, and others who criticized her over her controversial advice. We reported some days back that Tacha, in a video that made rounds online, said a lady isn’t obligated to be faithful to their boyfriend if they are not yet engaged.

Her statement didn’t sit well with netizens and some celebrities who heavily criticized her. Replying them via her Twitter page, Tacha noted how a lot of people on the internet aren’t smart and lack sense. She questioned why they got upset over a 30-second teaser without watching the full video and conversation before criticizing her. Tacha used their criticisms as an example of why fake narratives and fake news always make rounds online because people fail to listen before judging. Calling them educated with low IQ, she made them know that at the end of the day, she is smarter than them. “A
