Nollywood actress Eniola Badmus had refuted the rumours that she is 44 years old.
The shocked movie star took to her Instagram page on Thursday, September 9, 2021, where she debunked the rumours.
"Y'all should stop adding to my age, I'm not 44 years old. I never reach 40 years oooo, can't be older than my senior ones. My elder sister is not even up to 44 years old so get your facts right," she said.
The movie star recently celebrated her birthday.
Badmus is a Nigerian professional film actress, scriptwriter, entertainer and social media influencer.
She rose to prominence in 2008 after she featured in the movie Jenifa.
Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, says that the Living Faith Church, popularly known as Winners’ Chapel, is ‘in order’, following the report on the sacking of pastors at the church.
He made this known on his verified Facebook page on Monday, stating that any pastor that fails at growing the church should be sacked.
He wrote, “I read the letter from Winners Chapel and it did not mention anything about money. Rather, it used the word ‘church growth’. Christ called us to engage in evangelism-Matthew 28:18-20.
“Any pastor that fails at that core duty should be sacked. This is what Christ told us in Matthew 25:14-29.
“The sacked pastor who went to the press after releasing a live video is playing on your emotions. He is not considering that he is undermining the faith of believers.
“In John 15:16, Christ said ‘I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit.’ Now, ask yourself what the consequence of not bearing fruit is.
“Christ answered that question in John 15:2 “Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away”.
“This is why the only thing Christ ever cursed in His lifetime on Earth is the fig tree that bore no fruit-Mark 11:14. Winners, Chapel is in order.”
This came shortly after one Pastor Peter Godwin, a cleric at the Winners Chapel, claimed that the church sacked him and about 40 other pastors in Ekiti State for failing to grow their respective parishes.
However, a source learnt that the figure might be much higher than 40 nationwide.
In a letter that has been trending on social media, which is dated June 25, 2021 and signed by the Executive Secretary of the church, Adebisi Aboluwade, the pastors were asked to vacate their official accommodation and hand over their identity cards to their respective area pastors.
The letter addressed to one of the pastors
In a trending video, Pastor Godwin, who claimed to be one of the pastors affected in Ekiti State, said he was employed on August 28, 2020.
He claimed that he was invited with about 40 of his colleagues by the state pastor on July 1, 2021, but was sacked for failing to grow the revenue of the church.
Godwin said, “When I got there, I saw other pastors too, over 40 of them. So, I joined them.
“A few minutes later, we were [each] issued a letter. I opened the content of the letter to see what was there and I saw that it was a sack letter.
“So, I called the management the next day to find out what happened since I wasn’t involved in any dubious activity or evil act. I was told by the management that the church doesn’t operate at a loss.
“They also told me that the total income that is being generated from my station should be able to cater for my welfare and accommodation, so as a result of low income, I’m hereby dismissed.”
Insecurity is a common problem amongst humans. It’s normal to have down days where you feel you can’t seem to do anything right. But feeling insecure about yourself all the time can take a toll on every aspect of your life, from your physical health and emotional well-being to how you perform at your job.
Below are some steps to deal with insecurity:
Affirm Your Own Value
Take inventory of everything you’re doing right. Chances are, your thoughts about yourself aren’t taking into account the hundreds of positive micro-decisions we make on a daily basis.
Remembering how you helped your neighbor with their groceries or assisted your boss during an important meeting, can help you focus on your contributions rather than shortcomings.
Channel Your Thinking into Something Positive
Insecurity is mostly psychological and it is caused by what you feel you don’t have. You may look at other people and things thy have achieved, and deep down that you want to be like those people. Don’t get it wrong, wanting to be like them is not a problem but obsessing over it breeds insecurity.
One way to defeat this is to train your mind to think positively about life and its outcome. If you feel insecure about giving a speech, say some affirming words like, “I can talk in public, I am bold, I am eloquent”, these are words of affirmation that can boost your moral. Sometimes if you are stuck in a psychological state, try to change your environment and get to a fun place to free up your mind a bit.
Take Care of Your Needs First
If you’re always looking after everyone’s needs and forgetting yours, you’re not placing value on yourself. Adding more self-care to can counter negative thoughts and build up your self-worth.
Some ways to show more love to yourself:
Nurture your body by getting a massage.
Workout at least 30mins a day.
Take a social media detox.
Practice self-compassion; talk nicely to yourself.
Eat regularly and prioritize sleep.
Embrace Your Awkward Self
There are character traits you think is weird about you. Appreciate and accept it with self-love. If it’s bad, work on it. There will be moments when you fumble, see it as just part of life. Accepting this fact can help you feel more comfortable about yourself. The next time you find yourself feeling embarrassed or awkward, try to forgive yourself first, accept that errors are bound to happen and then work on it.
Spend Time with People Who Love You
Surround yourself with loving, supportive people to build up your confidence and make you feel accepted for who you are.
Setup more dates and outings with the people you love. When other people tend to comment the good qualities in you, it will help you appreciate your own unique qualities and perspectives.

The price of all food stuff in Nigeria has increased astronomically but the cost of some food items are truly shocking.

Here are 5 most expensive food item;
Tomato paste
Tomato paste was something you bought when you did not have money to buy fresh tomatoes. Nowadays if you are buying tomato paste you are rich. It went from N50 to N150 or N200 in some places.
Garri
This is another food you bought when you were broke, you could get a Derica (a measuring tin) for as low as N50, now Garri is as high as N600 for the same measurement.
Plantain
Actor Mofe Duncan posted that he got a bunch of plantain for N6000. We all had a good laugh at his expense because he was obviously swindled but it was not too long ago you could buy a bunch of plantain for N100 now the least you can get plantain is N500
Sachet water
The people who drink bottled water will not relate but sachet water used to be N5 for a unit and N100 for a bag of water. Now it is N20 for a unit and N200 for a bag of water. The price doubled!
Chicken
In the good old days when you can get half a kilo of chicken for N650, nowadays it is priced something between N1800 to N2000.
Rice would be given a honorary mention but it has been expensive since this regime came on board and closed borders.
