Utomi, who was a guest on Sunday Politics on Channels Television, claimed it was absurd to support the populace.
“It is way too expensive for me to govern in Nigeria, and I will still have to drastically cut it.
I would encourage production by using industry policy. When asked what he would do as president, he responded, “We’re not doing enough to stimulate production.”
Lauren Goodger, a former TOWIE star, has a successful solo career. She explains why she’s still the “girl next door,” and why she entered the adult-only content site here.
TOWIE icon-turned-OnlyFans creator Lauren Goodger has opened up about why she joined the controversial platform – and what she gets out of it
Speaking to Lauren at the launch of Olivia Attwood ’s new ITV2 series Getting Filty Rich – the fourth outing of the franchise, the reality star – who banks some £30k a month from the platform – tells the Mirror that she feels her reasons for joining five years ago are a little different to others.
“I think my story is a little bit different from the others’.” She explains that she just thought it was really interesting and a good opportunity for me to explain why I do it and what I do on it.

“And it’s actually not that bad because I prefer that thousands of people have access to it because there are only a few hundred fans there, and I have to pay a higher price.” because I’m the only one to show my boobs.
She continues, “I’ve been appearing on magazine covers for the past ten years, and I’m not being funny.” I was naked, in any case, like in the Closer magazine! I’m a total jerk, they all want me to be naked. What difference does it make, then? I might as well earn money from it.
Other OnlyFans creators, such as Kerry Katona, have had a background in the glamour industry – but for Lauren, it’s a whole new world, she says.
“The girl next door was, and I still am.” I’m a pretty girl at home. For two years, only a few people tried to convince me to use it. They actually set it up, and they wanted me to be, and I said, “I don’t want to do that.”
The circumstance changed. The cost wasn’t the same as it used to be, and the money wasn’t going anywhere. So I decided to go into Covid and do OnlyFans.
But as she reveals, it was a significant step and not one she took lightly. What had I done that morning when I woke up at 5:30 am? But I did it, and I’ve kept doing it.
When asked if there are any friends and family who disagree, she replies that only one friend wants to delete the photos so she won’t need them anymore.
You can’t do that, she says, but you can’t! You can’t just delete it if you view it as a job and have money coming in. I’ll do it, but I’m not yet ready.
There are “levels” to what you can do on OnlyFans, and Lauren explains that her content will always be on the lighter side of the scale.
You can be quite tame or go pornographic. I have a smaller fan base, a higher price, and a lower income. Nothing will be damaged by it. Not that it matters.
“Far play to people like Lilly Phillips, she earns like £800k a month. You’ve got to have some guts to do that – I’m all for it. But I’m not that. I just want people to know I’m still that girl from The Only Way Is Essex – but it’s great. I enjoy it, and it makes me feel good. It’s a confidence thing too. It makes me feel sexy”
“Listen, I used to post loads of pictures on Instagram and videos that were quite sexy anyway, so I might as well do it on OnlyFans!”
When she meets Olivia Attwood on the ITV2 show, she tells her: “I’ve been offered 150 grand for the night, that’s another whole world. Never. Not being wrong, it’s hard to turn down but I couldn’t. I can’t even sleep with a guy in real life.”
Lauren revealed that she does charge a fee of £6,500 for custom requests.
On ITV2 and ITVX, Getting Filthy Rich airs on Sunday, January 18 at 10 p.m.

Following an incident at a Saturday game in Wales’ third tier, a man has been detained on suspicion of assault.
Following the 17 January Ardal North West League game between amateur rivals Trearddur Bay and Porthmadog FC, a 35-year-old was taken into custody, according to North Wales Police.
Tom Taylor was initially declared suspended by Trearddur Bay on Sunday after a video showed him elbowing a Porthmadog FC player in the face.
After the committee’s emergency meeting, they made a second statement revealing that the club had released him.
Social media has seen a lot of footage of the incident at the Gwynedd Y Traeth (The Beach) stadium.
North Wales Police said the video was known, according to a statement from the police.
According to them, “Officers have been conducting inquiries to ascertain the circumstances surrounding the incident.” A 35-year-old man has been detained on suspicion of assault as part of this investigation. At this time, he is still being held by the police.
We would ask the public to refrain from speculating while the investigation is ongoing because “enquiries are ongoing.”
The Football Association of Wales (FAW) announced to BBC Sport Wales that an investigation was being conducted.
Tier-three matches fall under the FAW’s purview, according to a statement. The FAW will be looking into the incident.
Trearddur Bay expressed regret for the incident in a statement announcing Taylor’s release.
Trearddur Bay Football Club stated that it “regrets that the incident should not have taken place” and that it does not condone violence in any way.
The club apologizes to the opposition player, Porthmadog FC, match officials, supporters, and the entire football industry.
While these issues are pending, the club will cooperate fully with any external investigations or disciplinary procedures. It will not make any further comments.
According to a statement from Porthmadog, safety of their player was their top priority.
The club wants to make it clear that Danny Brookwell, our player, is our top priority over his safety and well-being. They claimed that Danny had a concussion and had to leave the game after receiving medical attention.
