Pregnacy Questions And Answers That Will Get You Laughing

Celebrities And The "Child Outside Wedlock" Syndrome

Olamide and Son

Celebrities are supposed to be role models to the younger generation and examples of how young men and women should behave. However, this has continued to be evasive as celebrities are most caught up in acts like sexual abuse, drug abuse, child abuse and now "marriage abuse".

I have observed a pattern in the entertainment industry for a few years now. It is the fact that many male celebrities now prefer to have babies outside wedlock with their girlfriends rather than marry them first. Some eventually end up marrying the girlfriends(e.g Peter Okoye) which is one out of hundred. It just makes one wonder why human beings just decide to usurp a process laid down by God and turn it around to suit them. Even when it is clearly a sin and not how God planned it.

Dear celebrity, Here is an advise for you if you are reading this. Life is but for a short while, so is your fame. Make positive contribution to society. Add positive values to generation that will come after you. Be remembered for how you impacted positively, not how many bastards you made your proteges father. These proteges copy tour actions but cannot be responsible for children born from such irresponsible behaviour like you can.

Back to the gist jare. Below is a list of male celebrity who have chosen the path of having babies outside wedlock. The most recent addition to the list is Flavour who just impregnated is "Ada Ada".

And you need to see how this men and their girl friends flaunt the pregnancy on the web.#sodomandgomorahthings

Seun Kuti

He had famously declared early in 2013, that he is not getting married anytime in the future because he would not embrace the thought of losing half his earnings. However, he likes being a father.

Afrobeat artist and son of Fela Anikulapo Kuti, Seun Kuti and his partner Yetunde George Ademiluyi welcomed a daughter in December last year. The baby's name 'Ifafunmike' means "A child gotten from a deity".

In a recent interview, 31-year-old Seun talked about the exhilarating experience of fatherhood. "Training your first child is a life experience. It is a lesson in selfless service. You know, babies are strong but they are also quite dependent. You know you have to sacrifice your time, and now I am the one who sacrifices my time all night. "My partner works all day, I work all night. I am in the studio anyway, so I can stay awake all night. Well, it is interesting and my baby is quite peaceful," he stated.

Wizkid

Despite the fact that he happens to be one of the youngest and busiest fathers on the Nigerian music scene, Wizkid, whose real name is Ayodeji Ibrahim Balogun, still has time to spare for his kid, Boluwatife. He is also the first son of Wizkid and his mum Shola Ogudugu. There is no sign that the rich lad will be getting married anytime soon though but Wizkid is enjoying his role of a father and often posts pictures of his son on his instagram page.

Former Child Star Benita Okojie Getting Married Soon

In the 90s, Benita Okojie, at the tender age of 12, was a sensation as a gospel music child artiste.  Now 24, the multiple award-winner relives the experience of stardom and adulthood

Child   stars face a lot of pressures while growing up, did you experience such?

 I did but the winning factor for me was the close relationship I had with God and my family.  I did not shut my loved ones out of my life. They are the ones who can tell me the truth about anything, no matter how big it is. I have a good relationship with my parents and I talk to them about everything. My mother, especially, was a pillar of strength for me and I was able to tell her a lot of things and she helped me through all the changes. I am a very spiritual being and I pray a lot.

How did you handle the superstar treatment in school?

The early stages of the job were very harsh on me. I had friends who just had issues with my person, not necessarily because I did anything wrong but because they felt that I was going around with a larger than life image. I do not think that was the situation but because I am out there, everybody wants to judge me based on what they don’t even know.  I thank God for my parents and my siblings who helped and supported me all the way. I made very good friends also. Now, I am a graduate. I have friends who I hook up with once in a while and we hang out and attend functions together.

What has changed about your career now as an adult?

The difference is not so significant because I will always do indigenous songs. It is a language which I am able to express myself in. But I am going to do a lot of English songs as well because I know my fan base extends to people who do not understand Edo songs. There are some foreigners too. Recently, I checked our facebook page and saw a lot of foreigners posting comments there.

What lessons have you learnt as an adult?

I have learnt about growth. As a young lady, boys will seek one’s attention but one should learn to have a great relationship with guys while setting boundaries with them at the same time. Your parents should always be people you respect, no matter how big you are and how much money you make. You would always need parental love and support. Mine have been there for me all the time. Sometimes, when the youthful exuberance in me crops up, my parents would always make sure that I stay grounded. They always remind me of where I am coming from, where I am going and what I have done. That has kept me balanced. Guys would come and go but your parents would always be there.

What has been happening to your music career?

I am working on a couple of singles and a talk show but while I am still waiting for all of that, I am having as much fun as I can have.

What about marketing your songs?

I don’t think I can handle that but I have put friends and family members in place to assist me, they are also learning in the process. My sister is my personal assistant and my mother works with the board of my management and that helps a lot. It is easier to communicate with family. Whenever outsiders are brought in, they are made to understand that I am more of a family girl and we always like to do things together. This helps us to be focused. I don’t allow business to becloud what I do. Most importantly, I am a gospel artiste and my job is to win souls for Christ. If money comes, it will help facilitate what I do well but it should not be the basis for doing what I do.

Are you limiting yourself to gospel?

Grandmum allegedly 'kidnaps' little girl in the UK, Nigerian mum cries out

Hello HTP Blog readers, I am so sorry i have been off blogging for a few weeks while concentrating on some other areas of influencing family and parenthood. I miss blogging so much but there was just no time. I miss my readers and the feedback. Good news however is that I am back. 

What better way to kick off the return of juicy information on family, marriage and parenthood than a CRY FOR HELP from a young mother all alone in UK who has been treated callously by someone she trusted. Her Baby daddy's mama. News like these just make it hard to trust. Read and share. The child must be returned to her mother.

Moronke Temilola claims her daughter's paternal grand-mum (her baby daddy's mother) took her daughter from the UK to Nigeria yesterday without her consent and wants anyone who has seen either the woman or the child to reach out to her or report to the police.

My 2 year old daughter Liya was kidnapped on the 6th of October 2014 by her paternal grandmother and its been confirmed by the police that she has been taken to Nigeria. Annette Ehiemere , the paternal grandmother, who lives in Port Harcourt with her son(the paternal dad) Izuchukwu Ehiemere ,asked to come visit her granddaughter in April and since she had nowhere to stay I allowed her stay at mine so she can get to know her granddaughter and spend a little time with her, all these I did in good faith.

She spent 5 months and all these time I didn’t suspect she was making plans to kidnap my baby, I knew her birth certificate was lost but I just thought it was around somewhere in my room and I would find it, not knowing she had taken it. I resumed at university on the 6th and by the time I got back home, they were gone and after reporting to police it was confirmed that they had boarded a flight to Nigeria. She took my little sister as well and dropped her off at her sister’s in Hackney so I wouldn’t quickly suspect that was what was happening and made her drop my sister off the next day.

I had my baby Liya in 2012 and I have been the only one by her side, when I got pregnant and her dad didn’t want her, I told him I know choosing to have her is selfish but I really want to keep the baby and I would take responsibility for her. I have gone through hell taking care of my baby but it was joy to me, she is my motivation, everyone knows how much I struggled to make my baby happy. She isn’t familiar with anyone else, she has never travelled out of the country before talkless of travelling without me by her side. I didn’t even get to hug my daughter goodbye.
