A Nigerian man has left netizens in stitches with his response to a job rejection email from a company in the UK. After applying for a support worker position at the company, Dayo received an email from the HR department stating that his application was unsuccessful. However, instead of accepting the rejection, Dayo crafted a witty reply that took the internet by storm. Dayo’s response to the HR representative in post a post shared on X by @HenryHennery, showcased his determination to secure the job. In his email, he expressed gratitude for the previous response and humorously declined the rejection itself. Dayo boldly announced that he would be present at the company’s premises on the 9th of January to acquaint himself with the team. He wrote; “Dear HR, Thank you for your response. I could sense the empathy in the previous email. However, I regret to inform you that I reject your rejection. I will be present on the premises on the 9th of January to acquaint myself with the team. Best wishes, Dayo.” The HR representative, Sonia, was taken aback by Dayo’s humorous response. In her reply, she thanked him for his email but pointed out that his CV stated he was based in Nigeria. Confused by Dayo’s intention to visit the premises in person, Sonia requested clarification on which premises he intended to visit, reminding him that the company was based in the UK. She wrote; “Good afternoon Dayo,
Thank you for your email, your cv states that you are based in Nigeria, therefore could you please tell me which premises you intend to visit on the 9th January? As we are based in the UK.
Kind regards.
Sonia.” The unexpected exchange between Dayo and Sonia added another layer of amusement to the story, leaving netizens eagerly awaiting Dayo’s amazed. @fazygodspower reacted: “Omoh, na who gree really lose.” @MikeUbaka said: “Tell them that you will be there no matter what.” @BigSwissMo commented: “You need answer am say u don dey road dey come.

Jealous wife writes resignation letter to husband’s company
Recently, a Nigerian woman shared her story, revealing that her husband had left their matrimonial home shortly after she took certain actions. In her confession, she admitted to writing a resignation letter on behalf of her husband and sending it to his company.
Her motivation behind this drastic step was rooted in her intense feelings of jealousy. According to her, there was a female colleague at her husband’s workplace who showed a clear attraction to him. This ongoing attention from the co-worker had been causing the woman increasing distress, leading her to take this drastic measure as it deeply troubled her. Her statement: “I am a jealous lover and I dislike anyone giving my man attention of any sort. My husband does not hide anything from me. I check his phone at will and he tells me stuffs.” “Recently, a lady at his place of work started giving him attention, which he told me about. I noticed they give each other reports and gradually became very close. He takes her calls in my presence. One time they both went on a trip, I made sure I kept him awake on call all night. She became his favorite coworker.” “Something happened when he was on a one-week break. I don’t know what got over me, but I turned off his phone and hid it. My husband is someone that doesn’t give his phone attention for a whole day when he is at home.” “I wrote a resignation letter on his behalf and sent it to the company’s email address. I sent it on Monday last week, and then went ahead to delete the mail. I also blocked the company’s email address.” “I love him so much, so much. He is my life. He is a good father. Please help me. I will do anything you tell me to do. God, I have chased my husband away.” See some reactions below: @bluprint7g: “A woman doesn’t know what she’s capable of doing until she does it.A transparent husband is being punished by his own wife. A wife has ended her husband’s source of income, hence provision is truncated. Why is she asking for help when she clearly destroyed her husband alone.” @ade_dohyin: “I am fighting the urge to call this woman oloriburuku. So she is not even pained about the man’s job but she’s more worried the man is with his colleague … Jesus Christ. The man should just see if he can get his job back and I pray he did and he should never look back.” @EjodamenJunior: “Agba my take might not make sense perhaps it is based on how I am feeling as I read this. If I was the husband, I will start a relationship with that co-worker she is afraid of, and I will flirting with different women. Ogun go kee her.” @PatrickSleek: “She’s sick and it will be foolish of that man to remain in that marriage. You do be shocked to know that her type are usually the cheat in marriages. I’m sure the company will reinstate him once they found out the truth from him. Meanwhile, he should consider that his colleague.” @Iremainillegal: “Omo! This is so hard for me to swallow. For the fact that you made me loose my job out of jeslousy. Hehehe nothing wey anybody wan follow me talk Ajeh! That’s the end! A jealousy wife is a big red flag. Oti lo niyen!” SEE POST:

Charly Boy accuses record company of breaching contract signed 35 yrs ago
Veteran entertainer Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has threatened to sue Premier Records Limited over alleged violation of terms of an agreement in musical contracts signed about 35 years ago. He made this known in a letter written to the record label by his lawyer, Mr Rockson Igelige, which was made available to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Wednesday in Abuja.
Charly Boy In the letter dated June 19, 2023, the lawyer said Charly Boy had signed Artists Recording Contracts with the company in 1988, 1990 and also recently. He, however, alleged that the contracts had since expired, but Premier Records was still breaching his client’s copyrights to the musical works. “On our client’s instructions, we demand that your company hand over our client’s master tapes, artworks, promo collateral for the music and other relevant and confidential information with your company within 30 days of the date of this letter. “We also demand your company’s payment of our client’s outstanding royalties,” the letter read in parts. According to Igelige, the albums affected included, the one recorded in 1990 containing songs such as Big Bottom, Aids, Sexy Lady, Mama, and Nwata Miss. He also listed an album titled “U-Turn” with songs including Akula, Sheri, Comfort, Civilian Barrack, Akula (Instrumental). Also in the list is an album titled “Reality” which contains songs such as Monkey, Family Support, No.6 Man, Give Mv Life, Lagos Life and Baby Come Back. He contended that the terms of the contracts entered with the company as Polydor Record in 1988, Polygram Records Limited in 1990, and currently Premier Records Limited had ended by expiration of time. “In this wise, we have our client’s instructions to formally inform your company to stop further breach of our client’s copyrights to the musical works under the musical albums and single(s) produced during the aforesaid expired contract period. “This is a result of the fact that the condition precedent as well as the consideration for the contracts were not met and furnished. “This serves as a legal notice that further breach after the receipt of this letter will attract legal action.“We hope and trust that your company will comply with our client’s modest demands,” he said.

Chinese company invents kissing device to combat loneliness in long distance relationships
Siweifushe, a Beijing-based company, invents a kissing device called MUA to address loneliness experienced by couples in long-distance relationships.
The MUA, which is named after the sound of blowing a kiss, is a long-distance kissing machine that collects users’ kiss data through motion sensors hidden in its silicon lips. The device also captures and replays sound and slightly warms up during kissing to make the experience more authentic. The MUA can be used with an accompanying app, and users can even download kissing data submitted by other users.
The device was inspired by the lockdown isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic, and it was released on January 22, 2023, priced at 260 yuan ($38). In just two weeks after its release, Siweifushe sold over 3,000 kissing devices and received about 20,000 orders. The MUA resembles a mobile stand with colourless pursed lips, and it is available in several colours with the same unisex lips. Although the MUA is not the first remote kissing device, it is a popular and innovative solution to address the lack of physical intimacy in long-distance relationships.
