Story: The Heat Of Virginity – Part 5

                           The company made arrangements for me to travel to the U.S for a 10 months managerial course. I only wished I could tell the good news to Tope, but there was no means, she didn’t have a phone, she wasn’t on social media and not even an email account, Few days later I traveled to Texas, U.S. It was a wonderful learning experience and I was well taken care of. I met people from different parts of the world and I had a great time. At the end of the exercise, I returned back to Nigeria and the following day I was a*signed to the position of an a*sistant manager. I had my own office and desk, it was too good to be true. My salary was wow!! My life was beautiful. After 3months of working I was able to acquire a brand new car. I could afford any luxury that I wanted. ¶° More story @ focuswap.com My fashion changed, I got lots of cool natives and suits, expensive wrist watches, perfumes… I didn’t know how to spend my money, every month it kept

Story: The Heat Of Virginity – Part 4

I loved her and I became so fond of her. We became more carnal and grew in intimacy. Everyday we engaged in lascivious delight and Tope began to enjoy the pleasurable ecstasy each time we entangled in the salacious act. After my service year had ended, I decided to stay back for a week so as to bid farewell to Tope. I knew everything we had was going to end as soon as I departed from Kogi state, and she knew that too. She couldn’t help but cry all through the last few days I spent with her. I felt for her, I was moved but I couldn’t change what fate had put before us. ¶° Story from √ focuswap.com.ng The day I was leaving, she saw me off to the garage. As I waited for the vehicle to be filled, she was sobbing inordinately, her face covered in tears and her nose licking…. It was a sorry sight, I hugged her close and she cried out loud. “Noo… My life! My life! Oh God why?” I said to her. “Tope it’s okay baby, I will miss you dearly.” She then said. “What wil

According to the command’s spokesman, Victor Isuku, a male suicide bomber aiming an attack on a mosque at Dalori Quarters was intercepted by a youth vigilante.

In Reopening in 2nd Qtr, Forcados Pipeline Set to Boost Oil Exports

Image
The Trans-Forcados pipeline, which was shut for most of 2016, is likely to be reopened around the end of the second quarter of 2017, the Chief Executive Officer of Seplat Petroleum Development Company Plc, Mr. Austin Avuru has said. Owned by the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) and operated by Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC), the pipeline has been attacked severally by the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA). It was first attacked by the Avengers in February 2016, the first on a subsea pipeline in the country. A spill that occurred on February 14, 2016 from the subsea crude oil export pipeline forced Shell to declare a force majeure on Forcados liftings on February 21 due to the disruption to production. Attempts to repair the 48-inch pipeline were frustrated by further attacks by the militants. But Reuters quoted Avuru as saying yesterday that the facility would come on stream near the end of the second quarter of this year. “We have a lot of locked-in produc

Counting Cars Cancelled?

 Home  >  Entertainment  >  Counting Cars Cancelled? Counting Cars Cancelled?   Petar Senjo    January 31, 2017     Entertainment     0 Comments According to rumors from few sources, it seems that  Counting Cars  will be cancelled. In recent years we saw an increase in popularity of reality TV Shows and History Channel provided few really great ones so it would be a shame if Counting Cars don’t get the renewal. We immediately need to say that this is only a rumor, but it is strange not to see any details about the future season. Currently, the show is in its fifth season and popularity should force  History Channel  to prepare the sequel, but no details are coming. In case you do not know, this show is all about cars and the life of Danny “ The Count ” Koker that loves classic and muscle cars. He and his crew are working on the restoration of various iconic models, but they are not only into cars as we could see motorcycles getting few touches of ingenuit It

Image
In a general sense, cheating has been said to involve relating with others in such a manner that leaves your partner betrayed and in some instances, rejected as well. It needs to be stated here that people react to cheating in different manners. While seeing a partner with another woman at a restaurant could be seen as cheating to one person, that partner would need to be caught embracing or kissing that woman before it is classified as cheating by another person.

Arsene Wenger Arsenal manager to accept FA charge over touchline row

Image
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has revealed he will accept a Football Association misconduct charge after being sent off in Sunday's explosive win over Burnley. Wenger was sent to the stands by referee  Jon Moss  after allegedly using abusive or insulting language towards fourth official  Anthony Taylor  after  Burnley  were given a stoppage-time penalty at the Emirates Stadium. The French coach tried to watch the final moments of the match from the entrance to the tunnel and was shown pushing Taylor when the official asked him to leave the area. Arsenal went on to win the game 2-1 after being awarded a penalty of their own in the final minute, but Wenger's post-match apology for his behaviour couldn't stop the FA charging him. Wenger could face a fine or touchline ban, but, asked on Thursday if he would accept the charge, he said:  "Yes, I answered that in the press conference, I have little more to add. "I am big enough to stand up for what I do
