US reality star Kenya Moore headed to Lagos

I'm sure you all are wondering why this is news...well, the former Miss USA and Real Housewives of Atlanta star is dating an African. She confirmed this to Wendy Williams on her show a few weeks back. But the thing is, people are speculating that the African prince is actually a Nigerian.

Kenya was in Nigeria a few times last year and is heading to Lagos as you read this. She posted a pic of her boarding pass on her instagram page a few hours ago. Anyone know who she's seeing in Lagos?

National Conference: Preparing for a Marriage, not a Wedding - by Reno Omokri

Another article written by Reno Omokri, Special Assistant to President Jonathan on New Media. Now that the modalities for the National Conference have been released, it is clear that this dialogue is going to be a citizens driven discourse which to every true progressive must be very reassuring, because as most married couples know, it spells disaster for a nuptial union if you spend time preparing for a wedding rather than a marriage. A wedding is a day’s event. A marriage is a lifetime affair. And what Nigeria had on the 1st of January 1914 was a wedding. Recently, I became aware of Brian Tracy's maxim of management which provides that " every minute you spend planning saves ten minutes in execution; this gives you a 1000% Return on Energy ".
