Fake bank staff defrauds woman of entire life savings inside banking hall
Latest entertainment gist
A woman has recently shared a distressing account on her social media platform, recounting how her mother fell victim to a scam artist who pretended to be a bank employee at a prominent Nigerian bank.
According to her, the mother contacted her immediately after the devastating incident, leaving her overwhelmed with guilt as she, being the eldest child, was unable to provide immediate assistance to her mother during this crisis.
Her statement “Four days ago, I received news that turned my entire world upside down. My mum called me, crying uncontrollably and talking gibberish.”
“That in itself was so strange because my mum rarely cries. When I managed to calm her down a bit, everything stolen from her by the men in the pictures below. My mummy was bawling like a baby and nothing I was saying was getting through to her.”
“She was talking incoherently and in that moment I was truly afraid that she was going to go bonkers. I tried encouraging her, telling her that money was transient and could always be made back.”
“I’m not sure I got through to her at all. I ended the call and began to rack my brain thoroughly, uppermost in my mind.”
“What can I do to fix this? I felt responsible. I am a first child, I should be able to fix this, to wipe these tears off my mother’s face. But there was nothing I could do for her. I, a recent graduate, trying to find my feet in the world, where would I get millions to replace what she’d lost?”
“I did the only thing that makes sense to me in chaos, I turned to Abba. I opened my mouth and nothing came out tears just kept rolling down my face, where would we begin?”
“But then, I did something I learnt through tribulations. I gave thanks to the giver of all things. I sincerely gave thanks through the tears and pain. God gave, and he can give again.”
“And I prayed for peace and consolation for my mum. This was the most important thing at the moment. And God did give her peace and calm in the eye of the storm. My mom who was talking incoherently for straight two days is calm now and we’re trusting God for the best.”
“I have a plea though. I know it’s a long shot and that the pictures aren’t very clear, but we’re trying to find these men. Even if we can’t recover what they stole, they need to pay for their crimes. Someone you know might know them so please.”
“Ps: if you’re dating a fraudster, are friends with a fraudster, defend a fraudster, or make excuses for them; I hope you know that this is the pain and desolation that they wreck on lives and entire families.”
“It’s Access bank please. She uses both banks and I mixed it up. It was an honest mistake that I didn’t notice on time.”

“My dad Wizkid is not the one begging for pussy” — Son
Latest entertainment gist
When it comes to savage responses, the Baloguns specifically those related to Wizkid by blood, are not to be trifled with and being Davido does not save you from such.
In a recent social media exchange, 13-year-old Boluwatife Balogun, the eldest son of renowned Nigerian artiste Wizkid, threw some savage response at his father’s rival, David Adeleke following their online spat.
Facing some online banter from a Davido fan, Boluwatife Balogun came to his father’s defense rather than keep mute.
The ongoing rivalry between Wizkid and Davido escalated in recent days, with both artistes engaging in public spats and trading insults online. Davido, responding to Wizkid’s jibes, took aim at Wizkid’s physical stature, claiming that Wizkid is so short that he wears size 7 shoes and jokingly suggesting he shops at Footlocker Kids.
Some individuals on social media supported Davido’s claims by sharing photos purportedly showing Wizkid wearing shoes matching his son Bolu’s shoe size.
Davido further escalated the feud by disparaging Wizkid’s music, boasting about his own hits, and challenging Wizkid to release new music simultaneously. He also ridiculed Wizkid’s height, suggesting that despite his own short stature, Wizkid is even shorter.
A Davido fan, seizing the opportunity to taunt Wizkid’s family, commented on Boluwatife Balogun’s TikTok page, asking if it was true that both Bolu and his father wear the same shoe size.
Bolu promptly responded to the taunt, defending his father by highlighting Wizkid’s character and integrity, asserting that despite any jokes about shoe sizes, his father doesn’t stoop to begging for attention or engaging in inappropriate behavior.

Liverpool go Rome ahead of 2024/25 season
Latest entertainment gist
Their current campaign may not be going well despite the huge promises they started it with, but Liverpool are ready to look away and perhaps travel back decades before as they prepare for the post-Jurgen Klopp era.
Ahead of the upcoming 2024/25 season, the Merseyside outfit has released its new home kit for the incoming campaign, with Nike, the club’s official shirt designer taking inspirations from Liverpool’s 1983/84 season that saw the Reds lift their 4th European Cup in Rome.
Go Rome or go Home it appears the plan by Nike for Liverpool heading into the incoming campaign, and the Reds were sure to model the new home kit release.
First team stars such as Virgil van Dijk, Luis Diaz, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Mohamed Salah were on to model the new jersey despite transfer speculations going down about their potential exit from the club post Jurgen Klopp.
Other first team figures seen modeling the new home kit are Alexis Mac Alister, Alisson Becker, Dominik Szoboszlai, Cody Gakpo, Ibrahima Konate, Curtis Jones and Joe Gomez (also rumored to be eyeing an exit).
Missing figures from the new home kit release however are those who currently are on the sidelines thanks to fitness issues, such as Diogo Jota, Conor Bradley, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara, Adrian san Miguel and their academy graduates; Jarrell Quansah, Stefan Bajcetic and the likes.
Out from the names, Joel Matip, Thiago Alcantara and goalie Adrian san Miguel are figures doubtful of remaining at the club next season.
