Hot Tea: Pope Francis Oks Catholic Priests Forgiveness of Abortion

As part of moves to make The Church more open and inclusive, Pope Francis has granted all Catholic Priests the right to forgive women who have had abortion(s). He will give the priests the discretion during the Roman Catholic Church's upcoming Holy Year.

His decision was revealed in a letter published by the Vatican. There, Pope Francis described the 'existential and moral ideal' faced by women who have terminated pregnancies.

He said priests should use words of genuine welcome but ensure those involved were aware of the gravity of the sin committed.

In the Catholic Church, abortion is a grave sin that those who perform it incur an automatic excommunication. It can only be forgiven by the chief confessor i.e Archbishop of the diocese.

My very reliable sources say it was actually Mama North that suggested the nude photos to The Paper Magazine. Even its director told us that Mummy North said 'if we are gonna do it, let's really go there'. According to him, it was Mummy North's idea to take off her clothes and show more butt. She was willing to take off her clothes.... Hmmmm, things we watch on TV. She must have...

#DoubleHustle - Banking meets Hair Fashion

It seems like everyone in Nigeria is an entrepreneur these days. Could it be some sort of trend that will phase out after a while, the liberating and elevating feeling it gives to be addressed as a business owner and an employer of labour? Maybe it is an attempt to break even in the current economy reality we are experiencing, or perhaps an effort to change the stereotypical impression that only white collar jobs are the best.
