"She's not that girly" Kim K says daughter prefers boyish clothes

Kim Kardashian says her 16 months old daughter North West has developed her own unique style and prefers the masculine, boyish clothes to girly, pink dresses. Kim explains;
"She's not that girly, I don't really like pinks and your typical girly colours. I like a neutral palette for her and with Kayne the same. I'm not big on loud or over the top colours. I love when she wears greens and reds and blush, just different colours of blue and creams. She doesn't like pink or purple. She likes greys, creams, oatmeal colours and black,' she told Lucky magazine.
"Every once in awhile she'll add in some colour, like with her little red Air Yeezys, but other than that she likes to keep it pretty simple.'
Is it that she prefers it or that's what they put on her? Can a 1 year old have their own sense of style?

Gov. Amaechi reacts to presidential statement, comes for Reuben Abati

Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers state has reacted to yesterday's voice from the presidency where he was advised to stop political rascality and blackmail. Speaking through the state's Commissioner for Information, Ibim Semenitari, Governor Amaechi said there was never a time he discussed First lady, Dame Patience Jonathan. He also described Presidential Spokesman, Reuben Abati as the rascality within the Presidency...."I would want to say that the Presidential Spokesman should be careful for the kind of threats he issues to an elected Governor. He should remember that the President is not a prefect of the governor. He was elected as President just as the Governor was elected as a governor, and Nigeria is a federation. And please, Abati should know his limits and need not attempt to cross his boundaries."It is a bit strange to hear the kind of comments coming out of the Presidency and this shows that the statement was already prepared before governor Amaechi spoke. At no point in his speech did Governor Amaechi make any references. His wife was not even discussed because she is not an official of government. I do not understand where or how Mr. Abati got his story, so we just take it that this is one of those clear indications of rascality within the Presidency trying to call a dog a bad name and hang it”.

Photos: woman reportedly delivers baby boy after 5-year pregnancy

An Abuja-based woman, Mrs Adenike Kolawole, (pictured left) who was barren for 27 years, has reportedly given birth to a baby boy after carrying a 5-year pregnancy. Is that even possible?

According to PM News, Mrs Adenike gave birth on Sunday October 26th at Evangelical Church of Cherubim and Seraphim located at Pipeline Road, Mafon area, Ejigbo, Lagos during the church's Sunday service.
Narrating her story to PM news, Mrs Kolawole said she suffered miscarriage in the early period of her marriage and afterwards found it difficult to conceive again. She said she had sought medical help both spiritual and orthodox but none provided any remedy. She said she finally took in five years ago but even in her pregnant state, she was still having her menstrual cycle. She said all through the years she was pregnant with her baby boy, herself and her husband (pictured above) suffered rejection from family and friends 
“I was rejected by my relations, my husband’s family who did not give me the chance of bearing a child. My only consolation was my faith in God,” she said
She said on the day she gave birth to her son, she was in church for their Sunday service when she noticed her water broke and within minutes, her baby was out. 
Her excited husband, Kayode said he did not believe his wife was pregnant all these years because he had waited in vain. He said he was grateful to God for what he had done and thanked the well wishers for their support.
