Miss Nigeria Ireland: Why Patricia Olufemi Was Stripped of Her Crown And Title

 
Nigeria Ireland 2012, Patricia Olufemi has yesterday been relieved of her crown and title as Miss Nigeria Ireland by the management, Perod Foundations.
There has been various publications all over the internet claiming that she resigned due to unprofessional attitude of the management, Perod Foundations. Here is a video footage of her resignation which she posted on youtube:

Well, WomenStyles is yet to speak with Ex queen Patricia Olufemi to get her own side of the story, but in the meantime, this is what Perod Foundation has to say about it:

Miss Nigeria Ireland 2012

Dear Patrcia Olufemi,

Wednesday, 22 May 2013

Re:  Revocation and Gross violation of terms and conditions of Miss Nigeria-Ireland).

On  behalf of Perod Foundation and Miss Nigeria Ireland, we hereby draw your attention to the

terms and conditions of the Miss Nigeria -Ireland beauty pageant, whose terms and conditions

you signed up to.

The rules and regulations specify that you are expected to maintain personal integrity and observe

the requirements of good manners and courtesy towards the organisers (Perod Foundation) and

the entire public. But in flagrant breach of the rules you have brought the organisation and the

title into disrepute and scorn.

By taking part in a movie without the consent and approval of Perod Foundation, you contravene

rule 8.  In addition you breached the rules by appointing a manager in the name of O'Sullivan during your reign.  As a result, the consequence of these actions is a revocation of your title and

crown as Miss Nigeria- Ireland 2012.

Further continuation of your act(s) of utter disregard for rules and regulations was displayed

when you went to pose in pants and skimpy clothes thereby, disregarding the directives from the

management that it was against the fundamental beliefs of the organisation and the Nigerian community for which the organisation exist.  Furthermore you used your social network (facebook)

and website as a forum to distribute above photos and displayed the Miss Nigeria  Ireland name

at the top of the website.   This is an intolerable act as a Miss Nigeria Ireland beauty queen.

Did the issues end here? The answer is in the negative. You dyed your hair blond against my

advice and orders that you revert it back to black to reflect the culture and traditions that you represent as the MNI queen, you refused and carried on with impunity. It is disappointing that you

came into this organisation with the full knowledge of the rules and regulations and has decided

to rubbish the organisation in such a way, in a bid to cast us in bad light.

You have been taking pictures for some time now that totally contradicts the beliefs of the organisation, photos that ridicules the role model image you are suppose to project. Certainly, this is

not the altitude of a beauty queen, and we make bold to say that the implication of this action is

grave and misleading to the public at large.

We are not unaware of your public instigation of your friends and Nigerians to help  you in forcing the management of the Miss Nigeria  Ireland Organisation which you represent  into agreeing

and submitting to your  despicable fashion style and image

It is regrettable that you could carry the internal matters of the organisation you claim to represent to the public domain (Facebook) for discussion.

In the light of your gross violation of the rules and regulations of the Miss Nigeria Ireland, we

hereby give notice of the revocation of your title as the Miss Nigeria Ireland 2012, effective from

today.

Please return to us any pageant property that may be in your possession, including the Sash and

the Crown.

Yours Sincerely,

Peter Oghina

For Perod Foundation and Miss Nigeria Ireland.

PETER OGHINA <missnigeriaireland@gmail.com> 4:35 PM (3 hours ago)
Our attention has been drawn to the claim by Patricia Olufemi that she resigned as Miss Nigeria Ireland 2012. I would like to put the record straight, she did not resign, she was sacked. Below is the text message I sent to her on her Facebook message box and the Miss Nigeria Ireland email account at 7.23pm:

Wednesday

7:30pm

Peter Oghina

Wednesday, 22 May 2013

Dear Patricia,

Please find enclosed a letter of revocation of your title and crown, as Miss Nigeria Ireland 2012, stating from today.

I wish you the very best of luck on your future endeavour,

Peter Oghina

President
Miss Nigeria Ireland.

AND HER REPLY BELOW CAME AT 7.53
7:53pm

Patricia Olufemi

Good evening sir,
Thanks for the email. I posted out my resignation letter today. It is evident you have not received it. I sent it via post as i could not attach my my signature to the online version. I do apologise for any damage I have caused and wish the Miss Nigeria Ireland organisation the very best in the future. I took the sash to the dry cleaners as i wasn't sure if it was machine washable. I will have both the crown and sash to you by the weekend. Thanks again for the opportunity.

So please do the maths, she posted the video 19 hours ago and she got my sack letter 21 hours ago. Where is the truth? She got the revocation letter 21 hours ago and she posted the video 19 hours ago, this is the truth. Again, it is 4pm now and I still have not gotten any letter from her via post.

According to Perod Foundations, Patricia Olufemi breached some of the rules and regulations that bound her to the crown.

1. Incitement: There was this issue about how she was supposed to wear her hair. During the time Patricia was crowned, she had a low-cut black hair, but her management insisted she wore a wig to all her events. After some time not only did she dye her natural hair to blonde, but she discussed such management issues on her facebook page asking fans to raise their voices in support of her natural hair to let the management know that they prefer her natural hair.

Bernie D'Arcy: Patricia I reckon we should start a vote among Nigerians in ireland about this. I love your natural look

What does this Bernie woman want and what is the story with you licking her ranting? What are you trying to prove?

9:38pm

Patricia Olufemi

what am i trying to prove? it is rude for an organisation to ignore a comment or message. liking it shows that we have seen it. it stops her from re posting and re posting. i am trying to prove that we respect and appreciate our followers views even if we are not taking them on board.

she isnt ranting. she is only sharing her point of view. isnt that supposed to be one of the reasons we set up the page?

2. Disobeying Management's order to change her hair to black:

Peter Oghina

Patricia, keeping quite does not make me a fool or a coward, I must beg you, do

not push it. I think it is a high time you went back to your natural black hair

please, and do it between now and the end of the month. When you told me about

going blond, you said it was for some time, the Miss Nigeria Organisation can no

longer afford to have you, Miss Nigeria Ireland 2013, on blond. Please do

something about it between now and end of the month. As for what you are doing

with Bernie, I want to once again beg you to be very careful. Bernie knows how to

reach me, and she has been on to me at different times for different reasons, why

is this different? When the time comes, I will reply her, don't worry about that.

You and Bernie are free to conduct a poll and find out how many Nigerians want

you to go blond.

Dear Patricia, unfortunately, Miss Nigeria Ireland has decided to do without

swimwear because of our people cultural believe and opposition to it. You are aware

of the controversy over this issue, so it is not an issue I should be explaining to you. I

am afraid as Miss Nigeria Ireland 2012, it will not be possible for you to go on swim

wear, it will cause a lot of problem for us. Thanks a lot

5. Demeaning her image as Miss Nigeria Ireland with her irresponsible way of dressing:

There are two sides to every story. Now we have heard Perod Foundation's side of the story. Personally speaking and in all fairness too, every organization has its rules and regulations to be adhered. We are hoping to hear from Patricia Olufemi to know what she has to say about this.

London Attack: Man Savagely Hacked to Death in Suspected 'Terrorist Incident'

Two attackers savagely killed a man believed to be a British soldier just outside an army barracks in an apparent terrorist attack in southeast London today, telling eyewitnesses the killing was "as an eye for an eye ... because Muslims are dying by British soldiers every day."

British Prime Minister David Cameron said there were "strong indications this is a terrorist incident," and senior British officials convened an emergency meeting in Britain's equivalent to the White House Situation Room.

The two attackers hacked the victim to death in broad daylight with large knives in the London neighborhood of Woolwich.

Afterward, they approached eyewitnesses, asking them to start filming with their camera phones. One of the attackers, who spoke with a southern London accent, carried a meat cleaver and his hands were deeply stained with blood as we spoke directly to the camera.

"We swear by almighty Allah, we will never stop fighting you until you leave us alone, your people will never be safe," the man said calmly, according to ITV News, which obtained the video.

Just a few minutes later, armed police arrived. The two men rushed the police, according to eyewitnesses, and police opened fire, wounding both of them.

The attackers "went for the police with the machetes, knife and handgun," one eyewitness told the BBC. "I don't think they cared."

The attack echoed a plot from 2008, when a British man pleaded guilty to plotting to kidnap and behead a British soldier. Police believe it was an isolated incident, but the emergency cabinet meeting ordered security to be tightened around the area of the attack, and at other military barracks in London, according to the BBC.

Cameron cut short a visit to France and called the attack "absolutely sickening" and a "most appalling crime."

"People across Britain, people in every community, I believe, will condemn this attack," he said at a news conference in Paris. "We have had these sorts of attacks before in our country and we never buckle in the face of them."

Numerous eyewitnesses emphasized the brutality of the attack.

"These two guys were crazed. They were not there. They were just animals," a man who identified himself as James told local radio station LBC. "They then dragged him from the pavement and dumped his body in the middle of the road."

PHOTOS: Soccer Star, Yusuf Ayila’s Wife In Juju Scandal... Husband Finds Charms In Her Wardrobe

The trouble started when I asked her to bring my children for holiday in Ukraine. One day, while I lived with her, I opened Gbemi’s wardrobe in Ukraine and found different charms, including a snake inside a bottle filled with gin.

It was a confirmation of the feelers I got from family and friends that she is fetish and had been using charms on me. I felt uncomfortable living under the same roof with her. In view of this development,

I told her to return to Nigeria, to which she refused. At that point, I told her I can’t cope with her bad habit anymore; that she had to go back to Nigeria or I’ll leave the house for her.

Meanwhile, before seeing the charms in her wardrobe, she’s always been at loggerheads with my mother for no concrete reason. I had to leave the house in Ukraine to get another apartment when she refused to leave.

Yet it never stopped me from paying the house rent, even after my departure to Orduspor, Turkey, my club. I kept paying the children’s school fees and other bills and later discovered that her Visa will expire in a few months’ time.

I sent her a mail asking her to leave Ukraine and go back to Nigeria since she hadn’t anything concrete doing and yet again she refused. I sent her another mail threatening to stop paying the rent in Ukraine by the end of April.

When she refused to leave, I sent someone to collect her passport lest she tarnishes my image and career.

I started hearing some unimaginable stories of her escapades with men each time I visited Nigeria, but I kept my cool. She was also reported to be having an affair with a popular Fuji star who also denied the allegation.

She had on several occasions connived with some people to kill me, which I survived by the grace of God. For the records,

I have a recorded phone conversation of that’. According to Ayila, he gives Gbemisola 1 Million Naira as monthly allowance. As for the said mistress, Ayila defended that he’s now legally married to her.

He described the new woman as a very responsible, God fearing lady who is his wife and not a mistress, as claimed by his estranged wife.

Why Angelina Jolie Had Breast Removal Surgery

Actress Angelina Jolie has undergone a preventive double mastectomy, she revealed Tuesday in The New York Times.

She wrote an opinion piece, titled "My Medical Choice," explaining that she underwent the breast removal procedure because she has a mutated BRCA1 gene known to raise a woman's risk of breast and ovarian cancers.

The BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes work in the body to keep DNA stable and to make sure cells don't grow out of control, according to the National Cancer Institute. But certainmutations of these genes can dramatically raise cancer risk.

Jolie, 37, explained her risks from BRCA1 in the piece:

My doctors estimated that I had an 87 percent risk of breast cancer and a 50 percent risk of ovarian cancer, although the risk is different in the case of each woman.

Only a fraction of breast cancers result from an inherited gene mutation. Those with a defect in BRCA1 have a 65 percent risk of getting it, on average.

Jolie began the process on Feb. 2, when she underwent a "nipple delay" procedure to make sure there is no breast cancer behind the nipple. She completed all the mastectomy procedures on April 27, including breast reconstruction with an implant, she wrote.

"I wanted to write this to tell other women that the decision to have a mastectomy was not easy," she wrote. "But it is one I am very happy that I made. My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from 87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer."

BREAKING NEWS: Jonathan Declares State Of Emergency In Borno, Yobe And Adamawa State

President Goodluck Jonathan of Nigeria today declared a state of  emergency in three Nigerian states of Adamawa, Yobe and Borno. The  president made the declaration during a nationwide broadcast carried  live on national television.

In imposing the state of emergency today, President Jonathan wielded extra-Ordinary measures by invoking

Section 305, Sub section 1 of the 1999 constitution of Nigeria.

However, Mr. Jonathan stated that regardless of the state of  emergency imposed today, the governors in the three states will remain  in office.

The president had earlier met with the governors in the Aso Rock Villa late afternoon shortly before the the broadcast.

ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN, GCFR ON THE DECLARATION OF A STATE OF EMERGENCY IN BORNO, YOBE AND ADAMAWA STATES IN ORDER TO RESTORE PUBLIC ORDER, PUBLIC SAFETY AND SECURITY IN THE AFFECTED STATES OF THE FEDERATION

MAY 14, 2013


Dear compatriots,
1.    It has become necessary for me to address you on the recent spate of terrorist activities and protracted security challenges in some parts of the country, particularly in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Gombe, Bauchi, Kano, Plateau and most recently Bayelsa, Taraba, Benue and Nasarawa states.  These unfortunate events have led to needless loss of lives and property of many innocent Nigerians including members of our security forces.

2.   The recent killing of security operatives by a cult group in Nasarawa state is particularly condemnable. I have directed that no effort or expense be spared in identifying and bringing to justice all those who had a hand in the killing of the operatives.

3.   The activities of insurgents and terrorists have been reprehensible, causing fear among our citizens and a near-breakdown of law and order in parts of the country, especially the North. We have taken robust steps to unravel and address the root causes of these crises, but it would appear that there is a systematic effort by insurgents and terrorists to destabilize the Nigerian state and test our collective resolve.

4.  Since I returned to the country after cutting short my visit to South Africa and aborting a planned state visit to Namibia, I have received detailed briefings from our security agencies. These briefings indicate that what we are facing is not just militancy or criminality, but a rebellion and insurgency by terrorist groups which pose a very serious threat to national unity and territorial integrity. Already, some northern parts of Borno state have been taken over by groups whose allegiance is to different flags and ideologies.

5.   These terrorists and insurgents seem determined to establish control and authority over parts of our beloved nation and to progressively overwhelm the rest of the country. In many places, they have destroyed the Nigerian flag and other symbols of state authority and in their place, hoisted strange flags suggesting the exercise of alternative sovereignty.

6.  They have attacked government buildings and facilities. They have murdered innocent citizens and state officials. They have set houses ablaze, and taken women and children as hostages. These actions amount to a declaration of war and a deliberate attempt to undermine the authority of the Nigerian state and threaten her territorial integrity. As a responsible government, we will not tolerate this.

 7.  Previously, we adopted a multi-track approach to the resolution of this problem through actions which included persuasion, dialogue and widespread consultation with the political, religious and community leaders in the affected states.

8.  We exercised restraint to allow for all efforts by both State Governors and well-meaning Nigerians to stop the repeated cases of mindless violence.

9.  Yet, the insurgents and terrorists seek to prevent government from fulfilling its constitutional obligations to the people as they pursue their fanatical agenda of mayhem, mass murder, division and separatism.

10. While the efforts at persuasion and dialogue will continue, let me reiterate that we have a sacred duty to ensure the security and well-being of all our people and protect the sovereign integrity of our country. Therefore, we shall, on no account, shy away from doing whatever becomes necessary to provide the fullest possible security for the citizens of this country in any part of the country they choose to reside.

11.   We have a duty to stand firm against those who threaten the sovereign integrity of the Nigerian state. Our will is strong, because our faith lies in the indivisibility of Nigeria.

12.  Following recent developments in the affected states, it has become necessary for Government to take extraordinary measures to restore normalcy. After wide consultations, and in exercise of the powers conferred on me by the provisions of Section 305, sub-section 1 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended, I hereby declare a State of Emergency in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states.

13.  Accordingly, the Chief of Defence Staff has been directed to immediately deploy more troops to these states for more effective internal security operations. The troops and other security agencies involved in these operations have orders to take all necessary action, within the ambit of their rules of engagement, to put an end to the impunity of insurgents and terrorists.

14.  This will include the authority to arrest and detain suspects, the taking of possession and control of any building or structure used for terrorist purposes, the lock-down of any area of terrorist operation, the conduct of searches, and the apprehension of persons in illegal possession of weapons.


15.  The details of this Proclamation will be transmitted to the National Assembly in accordance with the provisions of the Constitution. But in the meantime, let me make it clear that within the purview of this Proclamation, the Governors and other political office holders in the affected states will continue to discharge their constitutional responsibilities.

16.   I urge the political leadership in Borno, Yobe and Adamawa states to co-operate maximally with the Armed Forces and the Police to ensure that the exercise succeeds. We call on the citizenry to co-operate with our security agencies to ensure a return to normalcy within the shortest possible time.

17.   I am again approaching our neighbouring countries, through diplomatic channels, as done in the recent past, for their co-operation in apprehending any terrorist elements that may escape across the border.


18.  Nigerians are peace-loving people; these sad events perpetrated by those who do not wish our nation well have not changed the essential character of our people.


19.  I want to reassure you all that those who are directly or indirectly encouraging any form of rebellion against the Nigerian state, and their collaborators; those insurgents and terrorists who take delight in killing our security operatives, whoever they may be, wherever they may go, we will hunt them down, we will fish them out, and we will bring them to justice. No matter what it takes, we will win this war against terror.

20.  I am convinced that with your support and prayers, we shall overcome these challenges and together, we will restore every part of our country to the path of peace, growth and development.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
