BBNaija: Tobi Reveals What He Won’t Do To Win The Prize Money

Big Brother Naija 2018 housemate, Tobi Bakre, has told Alex that he is desperate to win the N45million prize money. He then went on to mention that he would do anything to win the ultimate prize, except to kill.

Tobi and Alex were captured in a heart-to-heart discussion yesterday and he mentioned to her saying: “I am here for the money.”

And in what looked like a surprise to the viewers, Tobi admitted that he ha feeling for Alex, but he didn’t fail to chip in that the money is more important and he has greater love for the money, as far as the Big Brother Naija Reality TV show is concerned.

“I like you a lot, Alex. But I am here for the money and I will compete against you for the money. However, I will not kill you or do anything that will hurt you for the money.”

He then encouraged Alex to be more competitive, not just for herself but for her family as well.

“I look forward to winning the Head of House challenge every time. I am here for the money and every other is extra and important as well.

“Always put your best foot forward. Now that you realise you are doing this not just for you but for yourself and your family, avoid letting negative people affect your vibe,” Tobi added.

Tobi and Alex seem to be getting closer in the house as he is trying all his best to get Cee-C off his radar. The duo was even captured on bed together just yesterday with Tobi resting his head on her belly and she looked so comfortable with him by her side.

This hasn’t gone down well with Cee-C as it doesn’t look like she approves of Tobi mingling with other female housemates on the show.

Ireland To Hold A Referendum On May 25 To Decide If Abortion Should Be Legalized

Irish Housing Minister, Eoghan Murphy has announced that Ireland will hold a referendum on whether abortion should be legalized on May 25.

Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar had earlier pledged to hold a vote to change the constitution, which guides the Catholic-majority country's abortion laws, some of the strictest in the developed world.

Murphy tweeted: "I've just signed the order for polling day on the referendum on repealing the 8th amendment to the constitution." The amendment places the right to life of an unborn child on equal footing with the mother's right to life.

Ireland is among just 50 countries that allow terminations only when a woman's life is at risk, according to the Pew Research Center. Incest or rape do not provide legal grounds for abortion in Ireland. Six other countries ban abortion under all circumstances.

APC Will Collapse Before 2019 Elections - PDP Chieftain, Sunny Onuesoke

Sunny Onuesoke, a former governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in Delta State, has said the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC will collapse before the 2019 general elections.  

The ex-governorship aspirant made the assertion in a statement he released in response to recent call by Lai Mohammed, the minister for Information and culture for deregistration of the PDP. Onuesoke dared the ruling party to conduct a national convention to elect new executives and see if the party would survive the crisis that would result from such exercise.

He said, “I am not surprised that such a call is coming from the now infamous Minister of Information, whose name is now synonymous with propaganda. The APC as a party is currently grasping for breath, the only thing keeping them going, is the single fact that they are still the unfortunate ruling party. I assure you that before the 2019 elections, the APC as a party, will collapse. This may come as a surprise to you but the signals are already there. There is no denying the fact that the ruling party is divided along different interests, coupled with the recent tenure elongation of the party’s executive committee, which in itself is a contravention of its own constitution. As a ruling party, the APC has failed on all fronts, not only as a government but as a party. The division within the ranks of the ruling party is glaring to all, that is why the ruling party has failed to conduct even a non-elective convention since it was given birth to.”  

Onuesoke also accused the ruling party of bringing economic sufferings on the citizens of Nigerian as it has not invested in the people, but only interested in plotting how to become the sole political party in the country.  

He said, “I challenge them to conduct a national convention to elect new executives, if they will see the light of the day, I am telling you this now that the APC will crash like a pack of cards even before the 2019 general elections. In their almost three years as a ruling party nothing has been achieved, one begin to wonder what they intend to use to campaign in the 2019 elections, no wonder they are calling for the de-registration of the main opposition party, in order to create room for a one party state, which is now their main goal since they have been rejected by Nigerians.”

Facebook's Stock Has Plunged 18%, Wiping Out Nearly $80 Billion In Market Value

On Tuesday, Facebook shares fell by 5% following reports that CEO Mark Zuckerberg agreed to testify in front of Congress about the company's data scandal.

The crisis began on March 16 after Facebook said it was suspending data analysis company Cambridge Analytica for allegedly harvesting data from more than 50 million Facebook users. Cambridge Analytica worked on Donald Trump's presidential campaign.  

Since then, Facebook's stock has plunged 18%, wiping out nearly $80 billion from the social networking giant's market value in the process. Zuckerberg's net worth has fallen by about $14 billion (he is still worth $61 billion, though).  

Tech stocks in general have taken a hit since the Facebook allegations first came to light. The Nasdaq is down 6%.  And other social media companies, most notably YouTube owner Google and Twitter, have both nosedived as well.

Shares of Google parent Alphabet (GOOGL) fell 7% since March 16 while Twitter has plunged 20%. Twitter (TWTR) was down 12% alone on Tuesday after noted short seller Citron Research has changed its tune on the company's stock.

Investors worry that Facebook, Google and Twitter could all face tougher regulations in the United States and around the world because of the Cambridge Analytica controversy.  If that happens, it could stymie growth for all three companies but Facebook in particular. Investors also worry that users may flee these companies because of privacy concerns. And if users flee, advertisers may eventually jump ship too
