GIRL Fired At Beauty Saloon For Refusing To SEXUALLY Entertain MALE Customer

In a warning to some of the illicit activities accommodated by salons besides gossip, as news reaching GIST PLUS has it that a Bulawayo salon 'queen' reportedly fired five girls who were on industrial attachment after they refused to sexually entertain male patrons. The salon (name withheld), besides hair plating, is always known for recruiting young and sexy girls on behalf of some local businessmen. Sources who spoke to us claimed that it has become custom if not law that every girl whom she recruited is liable to sexually entertain her male friends who frequently visit the hair salon.

"The woman is working in cahoots with some local businessmen hiring young girls as sex slaves on the pretext that they were hairdressers. Recently there were five unsuspecting young girls who were at the salon as interns but were fired after they refused to double their duties as sex slaves," said the source.

The mole added that to smooth sail its mission the salon closes late and the girls would be picked up by the woman's sex male clients. The woman, in a bid to cater for her customers' penchant for different varieties is also reported to be working hand in glove with some 'unscrupulous' schoolgirls who always come to the salon. A case in point was a visit by this reporter at one of the busiest salons in the city, which shows flashy cars parked outside with their owners being attended to by a bevy of beauties-cum-hairdressers. However, it is against this background that our reporters went around some of the city salons to investigate what would be actually happening behind the scenes.

In an interview one hairdresser did not mince her words saying some salons were good hunting grounds for men soliciting female pleasures. "Men both married and single are coming here asking for sexual favours. Some even after attending to them they will give us extra dollars and their business cards saying we should phone them. This is a temptation too good to ignore considering that they pay us handsomely after sexually satisfying them," said a woman in her early 20s who refused to be identified.

Although some hairdressers dismissed the claims as "dog's puke" designed to tarnishing their profession, they were however, quick to say their profession is just like a church, where its not everyone who attends it is holy.

3 Ladies Arrested For Raping 124 Men In 11 Days And Stealing Their Sperm For Rituals


Business Unusual! But this is like a movie script difficult to believe, but anyways it is true. Three Zimbabwean ladies Rosemary Chakwizira, 24, Sophie Nhokwara, 26, and Netsai Nhokwara, 24 are currently in police custody for allegedly kidnapping, raping and collecting semen of men at gun point. GIST PLUS gathered that they are always present at bars and fun places to source for their prey, who are mainly men without means of transportation. They offer the unsuspecting men lift, but then drug and drive them to secluded spots to complete their operation.

Midlands police chief Senior Assistant Commissioner Charles Makono said the women came under suspicion after asking officers if they could retrieve the bag of condoms from their car, which had just been involved in an accident. GIST PLUS learnt that 33 used condoms containing semen were found in the bag.

A police investigator also said: “So far, the three have denied raping men and have said they are prostitutes who find themselves so busy with clients that they do not have time to dispose the used condoms. They said they intended to throw away the condoms.” Findings show that the semen has been “selling like hot cakes” in neighbouring South Africa where a condom full could fetch as much as US$400.

ABUJA Prostitutes Sell Sperm To Ritual Killers


Randy men in Abuja stand the chance of having their semen taken away and sold to ritual killers by commercial sex workers who have laid siege to the city. This demonic practice may have been responsible for the woes suffered by some men including sterility, erectile dysfunction, marital crisis, failure in business and even death, said observers.
Our correspondents reported that some prostitutes with condoms filled with fresh semen were arrested by officials of the Abuja Environmental Protection Board (AEPB), while raiding some red light areas of the city.
A total of 104 suspected commercial sex workers have been arrested for prosecution during raids carried out by the board in collaboration with the Society Against Prostitution and Child Labour (SAP-CLN). SAP-CLN is an Abuja-based non-governmental organization involved in the rehabilitation of prostitutes and street children.
An AEPB official, who pleaded anonymity, said some of the commercial sex workers were found with condoms containing fresh male semen after they were picked from the streets. He said the recoveries of the used condoms were made when officials searched bags brought in by the commercial sex workers.
Other items recovered include Benelyn cough syrup laced with codeine, Indian hemp, cigarettes and Dunlop Plastic Solution, an adhesive used in vulcanizing tires.
He said, “It is a recurrent thing here. We find condoms with sperm when we search their bags. The necks of the condoms are tied to prevent the contents from spilling and are carefully wrapped in toilet tissue.
“We also found Benelyn cough syrup, marijuana, cigarettes and an adhesive used by vulcanizers in fixing tyres. Some of them become very wild after taking drugs and one has to be careful when going for the raid.”
A commercial sex worker, who gave her name simply as Joy, told our correspondent that the semen found with some of her colleagues were secretly taken away after they had sex bouts with their patrons.
In an attempt to extract the semen from unsuspecting male “clients,” she said, commercial sex workers exhibit extraordinary care and sex appeal, attributes which, she further claimed, caused many men to lose their guard.
As soon as the man gives in fully to the pleasure of the illicit affair, she said, the prostitute moans and screams wildly in fake ecstasy thereby setting the stage to carry out her mischief.
But where the male “client” refuses to succumb to the trappings of the fake expression of passion, she said, the girl would rub fetish powder on her nipples and offer them to the man to suck. After sucking the breasts, the man loses consciousness and the sex worker would steal all his valuables and collect his semen.
She said some of her colleagues also use drugs to knock out some of their patrons and entice them into having sex in a semi-conscious state. She said: “After pulling the condom, the girl would go into the bathroom and flush the tissue she used in cleaning the man while tying the neck of the condom.
“She would tie the neck of the condom to avoid spillage and carefully hide it away until she is ready to go. Sperm is a very hot thing for people, who use it for medicine. I don’t know how much they sell it because am not into that kind of line.
“But I know that a lot of girls do it and they make so much money from it. I don’t want to carry somebody’s blood because I don’t know what the juju priest will do with someone’s sperm. I only do ashawo (prostitution) business. I don’t sell sperm.”But determined to stamp out the criminal practice, the Federal Capital Territory Administration, through the AEPB, has launched an operation to dislodge prostitutes from the city. The operation, which is carried out in collaboration with the Society Against Prostitution and Child Labour (SAP-CLN) has led to the arrest of 104 commercial sex workers in various parts of the city during three raids.
At the raid which was carried out on Thursday, September 29, a total of 44 suspected prostitutes where arrested and held for prosecution. However, on Monday, October 3, the team arrested another 33 suspected commercial sex workers, while 26 suspects were arrested during another raid on Thursday, October 6. The operation is carried out based on the provision of Section 35 (1g) of the AEPB Act No. 10 of 1997, which prohibits sex trade in the capital city.

The suspects were arraigned before a mobile court presided over by Mr. Aminu Abdulahi, a magistrate with the FCT. Out of the 44 suspects that were arrested during the September 29 raid, a total of 31 pleaded guilty to the charge, while 13 pleaded not guilty and were granted bail.

About 16 convicts who could not afford a fine of N5, 000 as stipulated in the AEPB law were sent on one-month imprisonment at Suleja Prison.

However, 13 other convicts, who could afford the stipulated fine, were sent for rehabilitation at the SAP-CLN center located in Sabo Lugbe, off Umaru Yar’Adua Way.

Out of the 33 suspects arrested on Monday, October 3, five of the suspects were released on bail, four were freed after they were screened and an undertaking extracted from them by the court.

The remaining 25 people pleaded guilty to the charge and were accordingly convicted but only seven were sent to Kuje Prison, while 17 paid fine and opted for rehabilitation. The coordinator of SAP-CLN, Mrs. Grace Adogo, said the organization was touched by the plight of the commercial sex workers who were sent to prison.

She said a lot of the commercial sex workers saw what they did as business and not as a criminal activity. Adogo recounted the story of an inmate who, after spending one month at the rehabilitation centre, suddenly stripped herself and shouted on top of her voice that she could no longer cope.

According to her, the inmate said she used to sleep with several men in a day and send some of the proceeds home for the upkeep of her family. She said, Our security men ran away on sighting her. “She shouted that she should be released immediately and we did, because we couldn’t keep her against her wish. She said she used to sleep with several men in a day and could not continue to cope without seeing a man.

“She told me that her mother called and said she had lost so much revenue during the one month she was in the center and that she should come out and continue the business. The girl went back home.”

Woman Abuser Calling: - KATE HENSHAW Denies Ever Abusing SAMMIE OKPOSO


Recently a story was credited to top Nollywood actress Kate Henshaw-Nuttall about her experience in an abusive relationship with her former boyfriend, and she never mentioned anybody’s name in particular.

Read her comment: "I can’t withstand violence in a relationship. I was once a victim. The relationship lasted for about three/four years. I didn’t know who I was then. I was so timid, I almost stopped smiling and almost stopped laughing, but there was this inner strength in me that helped me to rediscover myself. In fact, I had no self esteem then. I wanted to change and be who I was not, based on the ill treatment and violent nature of my man then. He was constantly abusing, beating and battering me inside the house and in public places. I think there was a time when I walked round with bandage on my leg, courtesy of my violent lover. Funny enough, this violent lover of mine claimed to love me and wanted to marry me then. I wanted to marry him. I had started buying pots and other household items because I was in love. I wanted to settle down; I wanted to have my children with him. I wanted to be happy and continue to do my work but he was that bad. I kept think he would change, but he didn’t. I tried my best to be everything to him, but finally I said enough was enough, this relationship was not of God and not for me. During those turbulent periods, I was ashamed. I couldn’t tell anybody. Why did I stay? It’s very ironical because after the beating comes the gifts, the begging, the cries and words like ‘It’s your fault, I’d try and change, it’s not me..’ Everybody will now be saying forgive him, he’s begging. In one of the beatings, he broke my ankle..but let’s not dwell much on things of the past. I cannot tell you his name; we are both separately married now and still waxing stronger in the entertainment industry. Those that knew us then know the person and they also know his name".

But the story is taking another dimension as some people have started accusing gospel singer Sammie Okposo as the person she is referring to.

In a quick retraction, Kate was said to have told her close pals that she did not mention Sammie’s name to anybody, claiming it is the people that put 2 & 2 together, all she just did was to voice out her opinion about the high rate of violence against women.

No reaction from Sammie Okposo on the allegations yet.

At last: MERCY JOHNSON's Traditional Wedding Held


Despite opposition from the ex-wife of her fiance, Nollywood actress Mercy Johnson is going ahead with her wedding to Prince Odi! GIST PLUS gathered that, Mercy and Prince Odi celebrated their traditional wedding on Friday, 26th August, 2011. And while Mercy Johnson’s PR agency is confirming Prince Odianosen Okojie formally divorced his estranged wife on Tuesday 23 August, 2011, Lovely Okojie is singing a different tune saying she never signed divorce papers. According to what GIST PLUS stumbled, Lovely released the following statement: “I never signed any divorce papers. No member of my family signed any divorce papers. In fact there was no court hearing on Tuesday August 23. There was a hearing last week Wednesday where my father, sister, and lawyer represented me, but the case was postponed to Monday August 22. My family members didn’t show up on that day. So who signed the divorce papers? Also how can a court in Edo State divorce us when we got married in Italy? The only way Odi can divorce me is to go to the courts in Italy after a 3-year official separation or ask Italy to transfer the case to Nigeria.”
Nawa o! Whatever the case is, Mercy is moving forward with her white wedding tomorrow. Congrats to the happy couple!

CHRIST EMBASSY Finally Stops MERCY JOHNSON's August 27 Wedding!


If the information available to GIST PLUS is anything to go by, then, controversial Nollywood actress mercy Johnson has finally called off her planned wedding to Odianosen Okojie. This is coming after an allegation of husband snatching was leveled against the actress by Okojie’s wife, Lovely. The development has made nonsense of the glam and allure attached to the impending union in the last couple of weeks. Mercy reportedly made move to absolve herself of the allegation and revamp her battered image.
Her not so buoyant public rating had nose dived when Lovely went public with the allegations that the groom Mercy intended to walk down the aisle with is actually another woman’s husband. Before this disclosure, the Kogi born actress had junketed severally on the pages of celebrity journals feeding the world with details of her love story- and visions of a wedding to be proud. Apparently she only provided fertile ground for a hard to live down scandal to explode and thrive. Sources close to the actress claimed that her major sin is not taking off time to know her husband to be thoroughly- she merely swallowed hook line and sinker the tissues of mirage her prince charming fed her.
Insiders alleged that indeed Okojie told her he had child from broken marriage- but not children and wife hidden away. Informants also alleged that it is the growing public interest in the scandal that forced the cocoon of deceit off Mercy’s eyes with revelations that shattered the mirror of lies by Okojie. Informed sources disclosed that now that it has dawn on her that her marriage plan to her dream man is rapidly slipping out of her reach, Mercy’s preoccupation right now is to protect her career. Calling off the marriage is an advised move aimed at portraying her in good light with fans and critics. She’s said to have intimated stakeholders of this development.
She is being back in this line of action by Christ Embassy, the church that was supposed to host the wedding. Source claim that despite this move- Okojie is still begging the actress to let them go ahead. This appears far from becoming reality- even if Mercy agrees- with his wife, Lovely putting things in place to storm the country from her base in Canada and put a stop to the wedding by all means.

Lot of challenges that have to do with money and human being, but one must also know that there nothing in life without it’s challenges. So the challenges that have come my way so far are not new and not what I can not over come.

When do you hope to release your first album in the market?
If all things work out well, as I am presently discussing with some marketers, I think by December this year, it will be release.

With ever growing Nigeria music industry, what are you coming to contribute in the industry?
I am an inspirational musician. I am coming to give people hope on love, life to their career, destiny life challenges among others. I am that musician coming to be the real role model the up and coming musicians truly look up to in future. My songs will let people know that no matter the challenges one might be facing, if one work hard, he will definitely achieve bountiful success.

Who are your role models in the Nigeria Music industry of today?
I like D’Banj, Asa and PSquare, but this does not mean I do not appreciate others. In fact, the Nigerian musicians are very creative and they are doing wonderfully well.

Where do you hope to see yourself in the next five years musically from now?
By the special grace of God, I hope to see myself at the top where people should be able to appreciate me and my music, and also talk very good of me.

Who are the artistes you will like to have music collaboration with?
I would love to have music collabo with D’Banj, Asa, Psquare and MI.

With the piracy problem in the industry today, are you not afraid venturing into the industry?
The problem has long been there and many of artistes are still joining the industry, I don’t see why I should be afraid, moreover, a lot is being done to reduce the piracy problem and coming into the industry, I am going to join hand with others to see what we can both do about it. However, the government at all levels should also do more on this, the musicians themselves have to come together for what they truly want.

Are you aware of the musical body called PMAN?
Yes, I am actually planning to belong to the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria (PMAN).

The shows you have performed.
I have not really performed in any shows in Lagos since I just relocated from Port Harcourt, but In Port Harcourt, I did took [art in so many that I have sincerely lost count of,

What are the things that motivate you before going on stage?
Oh! Dressing very sexy of course motivates me.

Then when you are on stage?
I dance a lot. I am a good dancer and good music makes me to its rhythm, and if I have good back up dancers too, it motivates me also.

Have you experienced any negative remarks from the public?
No, because I always make my private life right.

How do you carry your audience along?
Whenever I am on stage performing, I love to come down to Nigerian flavour by using Pigin English to sing instead of using too much grammar. Moreover, I must add here that it depends on the events, because every audience has its own way of approach. If your audience is those that love street music, you have to come to their level. One just has to flow with his or her fans in the best level they can understand and appreciate the music. It is the event that determines how I carry the audience when on stage.

The craziest thing you have ever done on stage?
Wearing bum short, I like to look sexy on stage. Some people normally think that I am a crazy person, but that is me, I hate to pretend. I like wearing short things on stage; it brings out the best from me.

How do you balance your home front and music career?
My husband is very understanding and supportive of my music career. I balance them up very well. I want to add here that my family comes first before music, so I don’t want my music career to come before my family. I love my husband and son; they are first before my music. Though, I need money, but I am not into music for the primary objective of money.

Are you planning to take to music professionally?
Yes, professionally, even in abroad, musician still do other things apart from music.

Advice to up and coming musicians.
You just have to work hard, pray to God to grant you favour in all you do, because without God’s favour, all your labours will definitely be in vain. Do not come into the industry because of money or fame as the primary objective, but come into the industry for the love and passion you have for music and entertainment in general, then fame and fortune will be added unto you.
