Nicki Minaj blames her 'abrasive' behaviour on her father after witnessing his violent attitude towards her mother

Nicki Minaj has claimed that her father is the reason for her 'abrasive' character after witnessing his violence attitude towards her mother when she was a child.

In her upcoming Queen documentary, the 35-year-old rapper revealed how her father's behaviour towards her mother contributed to her own personality.

An emotional Nicki said: 'I remember when my mother would let my father be violent with her, and she always brings up this story.'

Spreading her arms wide, she added: 'As a little girl, I would stand in front of my mother, and go like this.

'That's why I'm like, maybe some people would describe me as abrasive, or b**chy or whatever, because I vowed from that age, no man would ever be with me and call me out my name, treat me like that ... And then all of the sudden, that was my life.'

Also discussing her own abusive relationship, she disclosed how it caused her to lose self-confidence.

She said: 'Who was I going to inspire when I had nothing in me to give? I let one human being make me so low, that I didn't even remember who I was.

'I was scared to get in the studio. I didn't believe in myself.'

Nicki who is rumoured to be dating Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, recently admitted that she would like to get married first before having a child.

She explained: 'I've got to get married first, then I'll have a child. I might be closer than people think actually. I love children. I'm not going to put that off for much longer.'

Breaking: APC expels Senator Ovie Omo-Agege with immediate effect

Fresh reports from the Delta State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) led by Cyril Abeye Ogodo indicates that the party has expelled Ovie Omo-Agege, the senator representing Delta Central Senatorial District in the National Assembly and factional senatorial candidate in the 2019 general election.



Rising from an emergency meeting of the State Working Committee (SWC ) in Asaba on Wednesday, the party said its decision to expel Omo Agege from the party followed his “unabated involvement in anti-party activities”.



A statement titled ‘Delta APC Expels Senator Ovie Omo-Agege’, signed by the party’s Legal Adviser, Dennis Nwanokwai Esq, and obtained by SaharaReporters, noted that the senator’s expulsion is with immediate effect.


"The latest of such activities relates to the hijack of primaries panel members and materials sent from the national secretariat to conduct primaries in the state and deploying same to conduct unauthorised parallel primaries.

Others are the manipulation and tampering of delegates’ lists and the use of thugs to harass and deprive authentic delegates from access to primaries venues, all that in conjunction with Prophet Jones Erue and others who have earlier been expelled from our party.

The expulsion of Senator Ovie Omo-Agege is with immediate effect. The SWC also resolved to petition the security services, including the Police and DSS to arrest and prosecute Senator Omo-Agege, Prophet Jones Erue and others for impersonation and others actions calculated to breach public peace” the party stated.

It was however learned that the Ogboru/Omo-Agege faction of the APC led by Jones Erue had also slammed the state leader of the party and the 2015 Delta State governorship candidate of the party, and the party's senatorial candidate in the 2019 general elections, O'tega Emerhor, with expulsion over same offence for which Omo-Agege was thrown out of the party.

Househelp moves Facebook users as she narrates what she's had to endure from her bosses, including being sexually assaulted by a pastor

A househelp's tale of the sufferings she's had to endure from her bosses has generated sympathy and outrage from social media users.



The 20-year-old lady who began working as a house help when she was still a teenager said she's been sexually assaulted by her male bosses. The wife of one of the men made her feel it was her fault and maltreated her as a result. She escaped when the man tried to rape her.



Sadly, her experience as a househelp in Lagos didn't get any better. One of her employers who was a pastor also tried to rape her.



Sharing her story with Humans of New York, she said:




“I want to live a happy life. I’m tired of living a poor life. I’m trying to save money for school but nothing is working. I’ve left home three different times looking for work. The first time I found a job as a housekeeper. But every morning when I got dressed the man would try to touch me. I was only seventeen. He wouldn’t even stop when I threatened to tell on him. His wife blamed me for his attention. She beat me severely. There were bruises all over my body. She didn’t even allow me to eat. But I tried to stay because I wanted to go to school so badly. Then one morning he tried to rape me in the bath, and I finally ran away. When I found a new housekeeping job, the same thing happened. This time it was a pastor. So a few weeks ago I switched to a cleaning job at an art gallery. But they just fired me for speaking to the visitors. I don’t know why this always happens to me. It makes me so angry. I get mad at my parents for being poor. I get mad at my friends for going to school. When I see their graduation pictures on Facebook, I just start crying. I’m already twenty years old. I should be finishing school, but I haven’t even started yet. But everything has it’s own time. Hopefully my time will come too.”
