Thisis what he shared on his facebook page that is actually causing outrage on the internet. Read Below

"It is not Femi Fani-Kayode but rather Bola Tinubu that slurs when he speaks. It is not Femi Fani-Kayode but rather Bola Tinubu that has to take 20 pills before he can go out. It is not Femi Fani-Kayode but Bola Tinubu that his hands shake when he tries to lift his fork and knife and eat.

It is not Femi Fani-Kayode but rather the spokesman of the APC, Lai Mohammed, that is rotting from inside and that has the chronically bad breath of a rabid poll cat. Lai's breath is so bad that it is enough to knock out a polar bear from across the street.

It is not Femi Fani-Kayode but rather Lai Mohammed who is suffering from loose bowel movements and who defecates every other minute to the point that he often has to wear pampers when he goes on long journeys.

I will want to give my family attention and the best when I finally decide to settle down as my parents gave me. My family raised me up by monitoring my activities so I will like to do same for my family.

Throw Back: Movie "The Sound of Music" After 50 Years

Did you see this movie "The Sound of Music"? If not I urge you to look for the dvd and go watch it and come thank me later, can't believe its already 50 years old. Wow, just saw an article on one of my favorite movies of all time. Anytime I would love to re-watch this movies over and over again. But the big questions here is where are those people from the movie today? Fifty years after its premiere, "The Sound of Music" is still among millions of fans' favorite things.

The Julie Andrews film, about the von Trapp family and its "problem" governess, Maria, is beloved enough to have spawned audience singalongs. The performers who played the von Trapp children remain close, doing joint interviews and publishing a book. The film even prompted a live NBC musical, which -- though it was roasted by critics -- still managed stupendous ratings.

Of course, there remains one notable dissenter: Christopher Plummer, who has long had a grudging opinion of perhaps his most famous role.

"I love Beyoncé's royalty factor - she'd be a kind of queen. The villagers would like her, not much mutiny would be going down," he mused to British magazine Heat.

There are also some British stars who are getting Ne-Yo excited. Sam Smith recently swept the board at the Grammys, taking home four of the prizes, and the R&B star can completely see why he's doing so well.
