Former Big Brother star Makosi Musambasi has been arrested on suspicion of fraud after allegedly producing a fishy driving license in the United Kingdon. The attention-seeking celebrity is also unhappy about her boobs and want that of Halle Berry.
The 30-year-old Zimbabwean had thousands of dollars in cash when police halted her Smart car.
Police asked Makosi for her license but, but they were not impressed with her behaviour so they hauled her into custody at Plumstead police station, South East London.
Busty Makosi who came third in a 2005 Big Brother show was held 20 hours before being charged with driving with no insurance and driving on an expired provisional license.
Makosi started to work as a nurse when she was 18. In 2005 her working visa was curtailed and she either had to get out of Britain or appeal the decision.
The Zimbabwean girl was allowed to stay in Britain as a refugee when a tribunal ruled that there was a danger to her in returning to Zimbabwe, after her behavior on Big Brother. The ex-nurse got intimate with winner Antony Hutton and in a hot tub and kissed many of her fellow contestants, including women.
Whilst contending the decision Makosi did an interview with Closer magazine, in which she decided to get off her chest
“I love my boobs but they’re just too heavy.
“They give me terrible backache.
“I think I’ll show my surgeon a picture of Halle Berry’s breasts and say give me a pair of those. I actually do fantasize with Halle Berry’s breasts”
The actess said despite all the craze about her boobs, she’ll rather opt for medium size is she gets the chance.

Naomi Campbell’s Blood Diamon Tantrum
Naomi Campbell and Charles Taylor, the former Liberian Tyrant
During an interview with ABC news, Naomi Campbell was asked if the large diamond she had on was a Blood Diamond. Ms. Campbell, as expected, attacked the camera, slapping it out of the hands of the cameraman.
Naomi Campbell, the model
Even though Naomi is well known for her violent temper than her modeling talents, this time I guess she was right. Coincidentally, Ms. Campbell and Mia Farrow were in Africa raising money for relief in Haiti . On this, I’m on the side of Naomi, at least for once.
Charles Taylor, the former tyrant of Liberia is being investigated for genocide.
Naomi has been in African news for a while. When are we going to find out if she really got the diamond from Mr. Taylor?

WWJD (What will Jesus Do?) A Nigerian student is rewarded for his honesty
Durojaiye Adeyemi Job, a 30-year-old level 100 Higher National Diploma (HND) engineering student of The Polytechnic, Ibadan, Oyo State, found a whooping N9.3 billion in his Savings Account domiciled at the institution’s First Bank plc branch.
But rather than touch the money, in a rare display of honesty, he alerted the bank’s authority, won himself a scholarship, and was hosted to a reception at the Lagos headquarters of his church, Mountain of Fire and Miracles by the Overseer Dr. D.k. Olukoya,
Adeyemi explains exactly how the error happened.. “It all happened on Friday August 13, 2010. I was going back home for the weekend and decided to cash N2, 000 from my acct, out of the N3, 000 that I had there. I inserted my ATM card, the machine dispensed N2, 000. I re-entered my password to check my balance and saw a balance of N9.3 billion! I was surprised. To verify what I saw there, I had to re-insert the ATM card to withdraw N20, 000. An amount which was more than what I had there. To my utmost surprised, the machine dispensed the money. That shows that the money is real. I printed out the receipt and went home because the bank had already closed then. I kept the N20, 000 with me and on Monday Morning, I went to see the bank manager and narrated the whole story to her and returned the N20, 000.
First Bank explains error: It was a computer malfunctioning that enabled Mr. Adeyemi’s ATM Card access funds in one of the Bank’s internal accounts. This glitch was rectified within a few minutes. During that period, Mr Adeyemi was able to withdraw N20, 000 which is the maximum amount with-drawable for a single transaction. We all know that computers do malfunction. Stories of this nature abound globally. However First Bank has a very robust security measure in place that ensures security of our customer’s data and their funds.
The General Overseer of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM, Dr. Daniel Olukoya, has presented a brand new Toyota Corolla car, an undisclosed amount of money and a certificate of honesty to the Polytechnic student, Durojaye Adeyemi for his honesty
Nigerian student rewarded for his honesty
Dr. D.K. Olukoya said the church decided to reward him to show people that intergrity and honest still pay. He noted that Adeyemi’s action has portrayed him as a good ambassador of the church’s emphasis on holiness.
A woman experiencing pain moments after delivering her baby, Picture by Patrick Farrell
A United Nation multimedia radio reported on Tuesday October 25 that in Zimbabwe eight mothers die giving birth every day. Already infant mortality statistic is worrisome in the African country.
With the medical advances we have at this time in human history, this should not be acceptable.
After many years of reckless domestic and economic policies under Pres. Robert Mugabe, the heath care system of Zimbabwe is almost the worst that comes to mind. It is not difficult to understand why maternal death is that high in Zimbabwe. The economic situation almost excludes the likelihood of expecting mothers attending the hospital or clinic because they cannot afford to pay for the bills. Pregnant mothers in Zimbabwe go through their pregnancy term without any check ups. Last year, the Mugabe regime actually authorized hospitals and clinics to charge patients in foreign currency.
In some communities in Zimbabwe, it is luckiest of pregnant women who are able to obtain the services of community midwives. Even though some of the midwives are able to handle most common situations, they do not have the experience to handle the most challenging pregnancy complications, such as bacterial infection, gestational hypertension, pre-eclampsia, obstetrical hemorrhage, and ectopic pregnancy. These require gynecologist and obstetricians.
The average Zimbabwean earns $1.50. It is therefore not unexpected that most of them depend on community midwives and are not able to see gynecologist. Approximately 100 children die daily in Zimbabwe daily due to easily preventable diseases.
Zimbabwe is among the top 6 countries in the world with the worse record on maternal mortality. In spite of this, President Mugabe doesn’t even pretend to have a clue or care. A few days ago, the president and the First Shopper spent $300,000 on a date with the loser of the reality show Big Brother Show. Consider this in the light of the standard of living in Zimbabwe and it may even appear pornographic.
The average Zimbabweans could live on this for 200,000 days! Even in the US with the highest cost of health care, the average cost to deliver at the hospital with a normal vaginal birth is about $15,000. This means the amount the president’s family spent with the Big Brother loser could handle 20 hospital births.
Maternal mortality and infant mortality is a big burden on African countries. The chance of a woman dying from complication of pregnancy or delivery is 1 in 15! in Africa; in North America it is 1 in 3750.
This is a fight that can be won, but it requires strong political will with multidisciplinary programs focusing on prevention and early management of complications. The figures are not good and so are those for malaria, but when was either of these a key manifesto in any election across the continent?
