  • Do Nigerians Think The Earth Is Flat?

    Is the earth really flat?

    We even went to ask Nigerians on Twitter what they thought about it.

    https://twitter.com/zikokomag/status/692058253207998464

    Why did we ask? Rapper B.O.B came on twitter stating “facts” to prove the flatness of the earth.

    https://twitter.com/bobatl/status/691422284205178880
    https://twitter.com/bobatl/status/691728266760032256
    https://twitter.com/bobatl/status/691430107919945728

    …And then he threw this shade.

    https://twitter.com/bobatl/status/691730628698574849

    This scientist tried to put him in check and correct his assumptions sha.

    @bobatl Polaris is gone by 1.5 deg S. Latitude. You’ve never been south of Earth’s Equator, or if so, you’ve never looked up.

    — Neil deGrasse Tyson (@neiltyson) January 25, 2016

    And then he dropped this disclaimer.

    Right before tweeting a SoundCloud link to his newest song about the topic of course.

    https://twitter.com/bobatl/status/691838895751823360

    We’re getting you, B.O.B…..

    What do you think about the topic?

  • This Nigerian Girl Brought Her Chemistry Degree Into The World Of Slay

    Chemistry, applied or organic might seem to be one of the toughest courses to study in the world.

    Yes, in the world of science.

    But to 24 year old Florence Adepoju, her B.Sc. degree in Cosmetic Science paved way for her into the glamorous world of makeup.

    After working at the counter of a makeup store and getting tired of not finding the perfect lipstick shade for dark skinned women, Florence got inspired to study the science of cosmetics and start her own makeup brand.

    Kicking off in 2014, she launched her lipstick line MDMFlow in varying shades from her parent’s shed in Essex.

    MDMflow short for Florence’s nickname” Madam Flow”, has gained international recognition in Belgium and is currently stocked in Topshop stores.

    The lipstick shades are inspired by her love for Hiphop and have been named after songs and artists.

    The mustard shade lipstick was named after  rapper, 2 Chainz and another was named after the song “Milkshake” by Kelis.

    The latest MDMflow product, Greater Than mascara is selling out really fast and she plans to release her official mascara line later.

    You can watch her 2015 interview for the London College of Fashion Awards ceremony here.
