JAY-Z TO HOST BARACK OBAMA FUNDRAISER AT 40/40 TONIGHT



It turns out the Jay-Z may actually have "Obama on the text," as previously proclaimed on Blueprint 3′s "On to the Next One." The Jigga Man and his wife Beyonce are set to host a fundraiser for President Barack Obama at Hov's Flatiron sports bar 40/40 tonight (September 18).
On his official Twitter page (@S_C_), Jay-Z--who hardly ever uses the social networking site-- tweeted, "Guest list. Obama plus 40," affirming that the President of the United States will be present at 40/40 this evening.
Obama, who's in New York City for his national fundraiser tour, is expected to greet 100 supporters who'll each pay $40,000 to attend the ceremony. This will add up to a sum of $4 million for the president's campaign. The fundraiser comes on the heels of a tight press junket that includes a visit to David Letterman's Late Show. Obama is expected to hold court at 40/40 at approximately 9:45 p.m

Woman Gives Birth To Baby Boy With Two Heads In India



From time to time, cases like the one you’re about to read are reported, and the birth of Siamese twins is no longer news. This differs slightly however, as the baby boy in this case was born with two heads, and two necks on a single body.
The child was born to a woman in India who gave birth to him in a private hospital in Muktsar, Punjab, after a major operation last week Tuesday.

The new-born male baby is said to be under observation in the intensive care unit of the hospital where the condition of the child is stated to be critical. Doctors said that if the baby survives for 24 hours, then he can be referred to a bigger institution for further treatment.
Payal Rani, wife of Subhash and resident of Goniana road in Muktsar, India was admitted in Guru Nanak Ayurvedic College and Hospital for delivery. The blood pressure of the woman was very high and doctors decided to operate her.
A panel of three doctors – Dr Sukhvinder Singh, Dr Mukesh Bansaland Dr M L Ashwani – operated the woman, but were shocked to see the child. The child was born with two heads and two necks separately, with a single body.
According to the doctors, “The baby born with two heads and necks is a full term male baby. He is active and healthy now. The weight of baby at the time of birth is 3.1 kg. At the time of birth, the baby was not crying which is mandatory. But after treatment, he cried. The baby was shifted to the nursery in my hospital where he is being kept on oxygen and fluid. He is surviving well”, said Dr Rajendra Bansal, a child specialist.
The Indian Medical Association has now taken up the treatment of the baby.
“The IMA has decided that if the baby survives, then the cost of treatment of the baby will be borne by them. This is the first time when such type of a baby is born in Muktsar and he is alive. About ten years back, a baby was born with two heads and necks, but he was born dead”, Dr Mukesh said.
I really dont know what to say about this o, but a baby with two heads and neck born , and alive???God is truly GREAT

Female banker sends robbers after customers.



Any time you are withdrawing large cash sums, be careful, your banker might be sending armed robbers to retrieve the money back. A female cashier working in a new generation bank along New Market Road, Onitsha, Anambra State has landed in trouble for sending robbers after a customer just after he withdrew N5 million from the bank.It was gathered that the customer was attacked by the armed bandits who operated on two motorcycles while waiting to board a vehicle to his destination.
According to Daily Sun fter being dispossessed of the money,the victim became suspicious of the role played by the female cashier as no other person knew about the withdrawal and he hurried back to the bank in anger and threatened to expose the cashier if the stolen money was not returned immediately to him.The bank manager, whose office was situated close to the banking hall, overheard their argument and invited them into his office. While interviewing both parties, the female cashier consistently denied involvement in the crime and vowed to deal with the victim if his allegation was eventually proved to be false. However, the cat was let out of the bag during hot exchange of words when the mobile phone of the cashier rang persistently and she refused to answer the call.


While she was fidgeting, the bank manager suspected foul play and ordered the cashier to answer her call, using the amplified speaker. When she finally picked the call after much reluctance, it was the voice of the excited robber from the other end telling the cashier that the operation was successful. He told the cashier to meet him at the designated location to collect her share after the close of work. The cashier became speechless after the call as tears of shame and guilt streamed down her face.

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer of the state, Mr. Ralph Uzoigwe, said he had not received any complaint from the bank and promised to reach the reporter as soon as information got to him. It was learnt that the bank was handling the incident internally to avoid a dent to its image.

Nigerians die in chinese company pool



Someone sent a mail to Blogger, Ladun Liadi telling her about how some Nigerians were killed and drowned in the pool in a Chinese factory in Ikeja Lagos. The family are suspecting a foul player. Read the senders mail below.
''This is to notify you on this story that just got to me from a friend, whose brother is one of the dead boys. According to him, his brother worked with a Chinese company in Ikeja (, and he worked at the factory sometime last week, and slept over. His where about could not be determined till the following evening, where his body and that of his friend were found inside the company's swimming pool with blood coming out of their ears, nostrils, and mouth.
To my best of knowledge (i lost a brother to the pool, i.e got drowned). When a human drowns blood does not come out from those places, what we suspect is foul play, perhaps they must have seen or heard something they were not supposed to see or hear, or perhaps the company is into shady deals.
Please I would like to let the country know about the ills of most of these companies, we know they have strong backups, more so this is just one case we know, the next may be someone close to you

I did not stab DJ Kevin - Skailey denies



From Skailey: Our attention has been drawn to reports claiming our client Adeyemi Lawal Quadri popularly known as Skaliey Mental allegedly stabbed one DJ Kelvin also known as Kelvin. We hereby wish to debunk such reports about our client. There was no time Skaliey did such act as reported. He is a law abiding citizen of the country and also a very jovial person to be with. However, there is no doubt about Skaliey being aware of the incident, but he was not the one that stabbed Kelvin as it is being reported. A mutual friend of both Skaliey and Kelvin known as Walex was the
culprit of the act.
This was also confirmed by statements taken by police from Kelvin, Skaliey and T Blaze, whose studio the ugly incident happened that day at Agbado area of Lagos.
On the report that Skaliey and his manager were contacted by the writer of the story, we wish to say that there was no time they were contacted to get their own sides of the story.
Those who ever put calls through to Skaliey know that whenever his number is not reachable or at network range, his (Skaliey) phone calls are always diverted to his manager's (Tayo) phone number.  While we appreciate the enormous work of the media, we would appreciate if the truth is always reported about our stars so as to keep the noble pen profession in high respect.

Nigerian Actor Sentenced To 3 Months In Jail For Gay Sex



A 28-year old actor, Bestwood Chukwuemeka was on Monday sentenced to three-month imprisonment by a Karu Senior Magistrates’ Court, Abuja, for having sexual intercourse with another man through the anus.
The convict, who resides at Gidan Mangoro, had pleaded guilty to having engaged in homosexual acts.
“I am guilty of the charge against me. I  was under the influence of alcohol and I want the court to temper justice with mercy’’, he said. The police prosecutor, Mohammed Umar, had told the court that the convict committed the offence in August when the complainant was sleeping in his bed.
Homosexual acts, the prosecutor said, was contrary to Section 284 of the Penal Code. The prosecutor said since Mr. Chukwuemeka had pleaded guilty to the crime he initially denied, the court should try him summarily. The Senior Magistrate, Nafisatu Buba, sentenced him to three-month imprisonment without an option of fine.
“This would serve as warning to other youths who hide under the influence of alcohol to commit crimes,’’ she said.
When he was first arraigned in early September, Mr. Chukwuemeka pleaded not guilty, saying, “I came back drunk from the night club and thought I was sleeping on the same bed with my girl-friend and I started romancing her.”
At that hearing, Mrs Buba, had ruled that alcohol should not be seen as an excuse for committing the offence, but then granted the accused bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum, with one of the sureties being a civil servant on Grade Level 09. However, when the case was heard Monday, the actor suddenly pleaded guilty, and Mrs Buba summarily tried him, sentencing him to three-month imprisonment. Homosexuality and lesbianism are seriously frowned at in Nigeria.
In November, the Nigerian Senate passed a strict law banning same-sex marriage and public display of affection by gays in Nigeria. The bill – Same Sex Marriage (prohibition) bill 2011 – prescribes 14-year jail terms for convicted gays in Nigeria.
“Persons who entered into a same sex marriage contract or civil union commits an offence and are each liable on conviction to a term of 14 years imprisonment,” the new law said.
It added, “Any person, who registers, operates or participates in gay clubs, societies and organization, or directly or indirectly makes public show of same-sex amorous relationships in Nigeria commits an offence and shall be liable on conviction to a term of 10-year imprisonment.”

Melissa Gorga's Alleged Stripper Past Resurfaces - Thanks to Teresa Giudice! - on RHONJ



Strippergate continues!
Real Housewives of New Jersey fans were shocked last fall when reports surfaced that mom of three Melissa Gorga was previously employed as a stripper -- a claim she and her former boss vehemently denied. On Sunday's episode -- centered around the annual Posche fashion show -- viewers learned just how those rumors began.
"We're going to a fashion show, which historically doesn't end well, but we're going into it on the heels of a huge blowout. The recipe is not a good one," Caroline Manzo predicted early on during Sunday's show. The Posche 2010 runway show, which concluded with a fiery spat between Giudice and her cousin, Kathy Wakile, who challenged the way Giudice parented her daughters.
Reuniting with Posche's owner, notorious pot-stirrer Kim D., while getting her makeup and hair done pre-show, Giudice, 40, was introduced to Angelo Vorhees, a man who said he once managed Gorga, 33, at Lookers Gentleman's Club in Elizabeth, N.J.
As Kim D. prodded Vorhees for details about Gorga's alleged past as a stripper, Giudice was horrified, but admitted that he confirmed her suspicions about Gorga's one-time career. "I don't f--king want to hear it," Giudice sniped to Kim D. "[Me and Melissa] are in a good place."
Later, during the runway show, Vorhees appeared again, this time confronting his former "employee" Gorga. "I don't know where I know him from but I know his face," Gorga said just before the episode's end credits rolled.
AUDIO: Hear Melissa's new single "I Just Wanna"
Larry Guarino, the man who actually did hire Gorga at Lookers -- as a bartender! -- confirmed to Us Weekly after the fashion show that Vorhees had little to no contact with Gorga to begin with. And while Giudice may have attempted to comfort her sister-in-law during the fashion show, a source tells Us Weekly she was in on the set-up. "[Teresa] was trying to embarrass Melissa and imply she used to be a stripper. All the other [cast members] thought it was wrong of Teresa," argues the insider, adding that Gorga confronted her sister-in-law about a set-up and asked why she didn't warn Gorga of Vorhees' presence.
Confirms the source: "The girls were like, 'If Teresa's all about family… stop stirring the pot!"
Part two of the Real Housewives of New Jersey finale airs Sunday at 10 p.m. (EST) on Bravo.

Picture Of WizKid’s Alleged Baby Mama And Son


There were several reports last year that Wizkid had become a father. The singer didn't make any attempt at denying or confirming the story.
Now an anonymous reader has sent pictures of the singer's baby mama.

The sender claims the lady in the picture is Wizkid's girlfriend, Shola who had a child Boluwatife for him last year. Shola is 21 and she recently finished from North American University. Boluwatife clocked one not too long ago.

Man Sets Live-in Lover Ablaze in Ikotun *Viewer Discretion Advised*




A 35-year-old lady yesterday told how her live-in lover poured fuel on her and set her ablaze in Ikotun area of Lagos State.

The lady, Janet Udegba said her lover, Mr. Kehinde Adesamuye, 39, set her on fire because he was angry and jealous over her relationship with other men. She said she was at the Junction where she does her business of selling cooked Indomie before kehinde came that night, poured petrol on her and lit it with fire.
Janet however says Nigerians should not let kehinde go scot free with what he has done to her. Janet narrates how it all started…


‘’My husband has always been jealous. He used to beat me every time, under any guise and excuse.

I’ve tried several times to leave him, but he always threatens to harm me. I stayed with him because I was afraid of him and my life. He always told me that I could never escape from him, except I leave Lagos State. Anytime I said I was leaving him, he would say, no problem, but that he would do something to me which I would not forget. Now, see what he had done to me. He wanted to kill me.

“I used to sell indomie at Ikotun round about. There are other men and women selling there too. We’re all friends. Last two weeks Friday, one of the traders had a baby. We went for the naming ceremony. Kehinde was there with me. One of the traders gave me a drink; I just took a sip because I was in my flow.

“That was how it all started. He said I was kissing another man in his presence. He said that I sipped from the bottle that the man drank from. Right there, he started threatening that he was going to deal with me when we get home.

To be on the safe side, I called my younger sister, telling her that I might come over to spend the night at her place. I didn’t want him to beat me. When we got home, he cursed, abused and said all sort of things, but I didn’t respond or reply because I didn’t want him to pounce on me. This behaviour continued till Saturday. He even kicked off the bed, but I didn’t mind. I slept on the floor.

When I woke up on Sunday, he had gone out. I rushed to take my bath because I wanted to leave the house before he came back. But he suddenly came back, and started beating me for no reason. He beat so much that I thought he was going to kill me. It was due to the intervention of our landlord that he left me. After that beating, I moved in with my younger sister.”

Government should make sure Kehinde pays for what he did to me. I am an orphan. I have no father or mother. I sell Indomie to live. Now, I’ve spent all my money. In fact, I need help she said.

For reasons best known to Kehinde, he started sending friends to Janet’s shop, to beg on his behalf. He wanted her to forgive him and come back. But she refused. Last week Tuesday, Kehinde came to the shop with another friend to beg once more, but Janet told him that she was through with the relationship. Fuming, Kehinde jumped up from his seat, told her that he had nothing against her leaving, but that he was going to deal with her. He made good the threat by dousing her.

The following day, Kehinde was arrested by policemen as he was strolling along the streets of Ikotun.

JAY-Z DIDN'T LIKE ALICIA KEYS' ORIGINAL VOCALS ON "EMPIRE STATE OF MIND"



Jay-Z's a perfectionist. Just ask Alicia Keys. As part of an episode of VH1 Storytellers, the New York-bred songbird recently shared details on her recording session for Hov's "Empire State of Mind."
The God MC asked Alicia to guest on the song, but apparently wasn't satisfied with the first version she submitted. To let Alicia tell it, she was congested during the first recording and Hov reached out and asked her to re-cut her vocals. Keys jokingly told the audience attending the taping at NYC's Metropolis Studios last night (September 13) that she was bothered by Jigga Man's request.
In the end, a classic was born. "Empire State of Mind" earned Jay his first No. 1 single as a solo artist on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. It looks like Jay was onto something

Celebrities Behaving Badly: (Graphic Photos) Rapper Wale Caught Behaving VERY Badly in an ATL Club





Nigerian-American Rapper, Wale, just embarrassed himself, DC, Nigeria and all the many groups he claims to rep for. The foolishness is off the hook. Rapper Wale was just recently at a club in Atlanta and his actions are so embarrassing I bet when he comes out of that stoned stupor he will slap himself hard. So much for all that “I respect ma black sistas” talk he is always going on about. Wale even performed at a women’s empowerment conference back in March of this year. Just leave it alone with all that talk Wale. It’s a bit much and you ain’t even able to stick with it. *Sigh*

Mediatakeout.com caught Wale sucking on the nipple of some groupie in an Atlanta club and he let some of his boys have some too. The foolishness is off the hook.

Box office: Boom times, or bust?



“The Possession” claimed the top spot at the box office last weekend, but we doubt Lionsgate was celebrating. The thriller was crowned champion of the worst box office weekend in more than a decade, with a total that didn’t even crack $10 million. Not exactly bragging rights.

But maybe Hollywood can hope for a turnaround this week: There’s “Finding Nemo” in 3-D, and “Resident Evil: Retribution” opening wide.

True, “Finding Nemo” is a re-release, and “Resident Evil: Retribution” isn’t going to get an audience off Oscar buzz, but that’s not to say fans won’t support. When “Resident Evil: Afterlife” opened in September 2010, it earned $26.6 million, according to BoxOfficeMojo.com, and recall how well “The Lion King” did when it returned to theaters last September, earning No. 1 its first weekend out with $29.3 million.

If “Finding Nemo” or “Resident Evil” pull in half that, hey — at least they achieved ticket sales over $10 million.

Also opening this weekend will be “The Master,” but it’s in limited release. Do you have plans to head to the movies?

Davido Issues Official Statement About Alleged Arrest Warrant




As you all know by now there have been rumors about an arrest warrant for Davido. These are all false, according to the singer's management. Below is an official statement from Davido & HKN Music:

"I want to assure all my beloved fans and friends that, I am not wanted by the police and no officer in the Nigerian police gave an order for my arrest.

"I went to the police some weeks ago to give a statement and cleared my name. I did not beat up any taxi driver and the lady that hired the taxi driver and all those that are involved in this matter have made statements to the police and none of them mentioned my name except the taxi driver who claims that a large sum of money was missing in his taxi, in fact the lady in question stated that she was not beaten by anyone and that nobody assaulted the taxi driver.

"This is a case of blackmail, and I have resolved not to succumb to any blackmail for money.

"And to all those that are involved in this conspiracy to bring me down, I want to remind you that God Almighty himself got me to where I am today in my music career and you will not succeed in your devilish efforts to bring me down," said Adedeji David Adeleke, aka Davido.

Davido Releases Statement: I Am Not Wanted By The Police… Vows Not To Succumb To Blackmail



Pop star Davido has released an official statement denying the news of him being declared wanted by the Nigerian Police Force over the on-going assault case involving him and a taxi driver.
Yesterday, Saturday, September 16, 2012, we brought you a story culled from Crime Digest which reported that the Assistant Inspector General of Police had ordered the arrest of the popular pop singer.
Davido, speaking through his manager, Asa Asika in a statement made available to NET has denied that he is hiding as well as debunked the news of his purpoted arrest:
‘I want to assure all my beloved fans and friends that, I am not wanted by the police and no officer in the Nigerian police gave an order for my arrest. I went to the police some weeks ago to give a statement and cleared my name’.
The 19-year-old singer also maintains his earlier innocence that he did not beat up the now-popular Taxi man, Femi Ajibola. The driver had claimed he was assaulted by Davido, but even that is in dispute now as Susan (Davido’s supposed lady-friend who hired the Taxi man’s services), has denied the taxi man’s allegations.
‘I did not beat up any taxi driver and the lady that hired the taxi driver and all those that are involved in this matter have made statements to the police and none of them mentioned my name except the taxi driver who claims that a large sum of money was missing in his taxi. In fact the lady in question stated that she was not beaten by anyone and that nobody assaulted the taxi driver.‘, Davido explains.

He laments that he is being blackmailed but will not give in to it:
‘This is a case of blackmail, and I have resolved not to succumb to any blackmail for money. And to all those that are involved in this conspiracy to bring me down, I want to remind you that God Almighty himself got me to where I am today in my music career and you will not succeed in your devilish efforts to bring me down’.
His manager added, perhaps in response to some insinuations that Davido was in hiding: ‘These are all false. I’m sure you all know we have been in the states shooting videos for the last two weeks’.
Davido is expected back in the country on Sunday, September 23, 2012.

Woman stabs her husband to death in Bayelsa


The police in Bayelsa State have arrested a 27 years old woman who allegedly stabbed her husband to death in the Azikoro suburb of Yenagoa the state capital.

The woman identified as Osas Omorege according to eyewitnesses stabbed her spouse, Chukwuma Iwu over alleged marital squabbles.

It was gathered that trouble started when the wife of the deceased suspected he was having extra marital affairs due to his alleged late night outings.

The tragic incident which threw the rustic Azikoro settlement into mourning occurred last Friday when the deceased reportedly received a phone call which the wife suspected was from one of his lovers.

The wife’s suspicion and anger over the phone call the source said, might have been fuelled by his alleged absence from home for two days.

“After returning late to his matrimonial home he received a phone call which the wife suspected was coming from his girlfriend and attempted to stop him from answering it”, the source added.

Consequently, a scuffle ensued and the deceased ordered his wife to move out of the house with her belongings, the source further said.

Angered by the wife’s refusal to comply with his order the deceased was said to have reached for a kitchen knife ostensibly to frighten her but she was adamant.

Immediately he dropped the knife, the wife was said to have picked the said knife and stabbed the husband on the chest.

The loud cry of the husband for help attracted neighbours who rushed to the scene and took him to the health facility in the community where he was confirmed dead.

The woman it was learnt turned in herself to the police where she is currently in detention and assisting them in their investigation into the matter.

Contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Fidelis Odunna (DSP) confirmed the incident saying the woman voluntarily gave up herself to the police. He said she would be charged to court for murder.

Read About The Xenophobic Article About Actress Yvonne Okoro And Her Family



 This is a very long story, one that cannot really be summarized because I want you to fully grasp the crux of the issue before leaving your comments. On my part, I see this matter as a very important one, relating to African unity as a whole and believe that if not quickly, and properly addressed, the situation could degenerate and threaten long standing relationships between Nigerians and Ghanians.

“What I’m is she talking about?”, you may wonder at this junction. I’m talking about the recent Nigerian-Ghanian rivalry which has been brewing for sometime now. The ugly monster has again reared its head through a Ghanian writer, who in a recent publication explained why he thinks Ghanian actress Yvionne Okoro’s sister Rosaline Okoro should not win Miss Ghana 2012 beauty pageant.
His reason: Rosaline Okoro is a legal and not a true Ghanian because her father is originally from Nigeria. It is note worthy to mention at this junction that Yvonne and her sister Rosaline were born and raised in Ghana and have lived in Ghana all their lives. Their father Mr Okoro, though Nigerian has also resided in Ghana for 40 years.
Read the writer’s xenophobic publication HERE.

A very emotional Yvonne Okoro has expressed her complete dismay with the writer’s article that suggested that her younger sister, Rosaline Okoro doesn’t deserve to compete in the ongoing Miss Ghana beauty contest because she isn’t ‘Ghanaian’ enough. She described the article as divisive with xenophobic tendencies and lacking facts.

In a phone interview with the actress who recently won Best Pan African Actress at the Nigerian Entertainment Awards, a category for non-Nigerians, she clarified her nationality while addressing ‘frivolous’ issues raised in the said article.

She said: “I realized that the writer didn’t do due diligence in finding out about the person he was writing about, that is my family. You don’t just get up and write an article about somebody’s nationality without knowing the person or at least enquiring from the person.

It is a very sensitive matter because it is not just about me or the Okoro family; it’s about people who live in Ghana, people who live in Africa and the rest of the world in the face of xenophobia.”

According to Yvonne, the author based his argument on the constitution of America without even considering what the constitution of Ghana says on what constitutes Ghanaian citizenship. Here is an excerpt from the article posted on the internet: ????I do not have a problem with Roseline Okoro’s nationality as a Ghanaian. Since one of her parents is a Ghanaian, by law, she is a Ghanaian.

Nationality/Citizenship can be acquired through Birth, Blood (descent) or Naturalization. This means that, by descent/blood, Roseline Okoro is a Ghanaian and SHOULD be able to participate in the Miss Ghana pageant.

However, depending on how an individual becomes a citizen of a country, there are some positions that he or she cannot/shouldn’t hold even though such a person by law is a citizen. For instance, in the United States, only a person who is a citizen by birth can become a President or Vice President. Even that, he/she must have lived in U.S.A for 14 years or more.”

Yvonne explained, that right from the moment she started acting, people have been asking whether she was Nigerian or Ghanaian. “I always say that I am African and it doesn’t matter where I am from. The important thing is that, I am here and I am doing what I have to do. If I had won an award then it would be okay for same people to say Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Okoro has won an award. When my other sister suffered from a racial incident at a restaurant in Accra, they wrote asking how foreigners could come to Ghana and treat our own people in such a manner. So how come when my other sister stands for Miss Ghana they say due to the fact that she is a ‘lesser citizen’ or due to the fact that she doesn’t have a Ghanaian name, she isn’t Ghanaian enough?”

She cited Barack Obama being the President of America as an example of the fact that names do not constitute nationality. She commented, even in Ghana, Jerry John Rawlings who has Scottish lineage became President of the country, and honorable Hanna Tetteh-Kpodar who was born in Hungary has also held several important roles in Government.

She added: “But today my sister stands for Miss Ghana and she is chastised because our mother is Ghanaian and our father is Nigerian? Can you imagine how my father feels? He has been in this country for over 40 years, he has companies in Ghana and so do I. Even my mother is feeling that after all these years we are still not accepted. And for all the other people going through similar situations, it’s not fair.” The actress used her colleague Majid Michel who is half Lebanese and half Fanti as an example, stating that when Majid wins awards he wins it for Ghana. She also stated that Jackie Appiah was born in Canada and she still uses a Canadian passport. She therefore wondered if the simple fact that Jackie uses a Ghanaian surname makes her more Ghanaian.

“We have Ghanaian passports. We have lived all our lives in Ghana, we were born here. Roseline was born at the Police Hospital and I was born at the Ridge Hospital. We speak Twi and we are Fantis. So what is the problem? It was unfair for the writer to speak in the voice of Ghanaians by saying ‘the true Ghanaians will erupt in anger to defend what is rightly theirs’ if Roseline wins Miss Ghana. Who appointed him the voice of Ghana? It is such people that divide Ghanaians, it’s wrong to do that!”

She expressed contentment in the fact that majority of the people who commented on the post when it was published online showed their intelligence on the matter and did not allow the writer to sway them negatively. “It is not fair for someone to sit behind his computer and use his website to defame people and the reputation of their families.

I would say Ghanaians should choose the one who deserves to win the Miss Ghana crown. If it’s not my sister and it’s someone else then it’s all well and good. I know what my sister has; she is a born leader and that’s why I don’t even want to interfere in her affairs. Nobody should try to sabotage the competition.”

After reading through, do you think the writer was being malicious and his publication holds no water? O, are you of the view that he might indeed have a point?

New Twist In Wunmi Adebayo’s Murder: Armed Robber Boyfriend Confesses To Killing Her




After doing the first story about Wunmi(may God rest her soul), an undergrad of Tai Solarin University of Education, many tongues wagged saying that the news going around was a wrong, and that she was actually killed by robbers at her boyfriends house. More over, there were many pieces of the the puzzle of her death that still unsolved. As a result, I thought it will only be fair, to vindicate Wunmi, by getting to the root of the matter, so I kept investigating.

Many criticized me, saying I was being judgmental, and failed to understand that I did the story from my investigations which was yet to be conclusive and even said this: ” that was all I was able to gather about the events that to Wunmi Adebayo’s death”.
I continued to ask questions, and told my sources who are close to the situation to let me know immediately new details come up. Today 15th September 2012, a huge break in the case was made.
According to very reliable sources, who sent me the voice note(which I would upload as soon as I can covert to MP3), Wunmi was indeed killed by a guy she was dating whom she didn’t know was an ARMED ROBBER.
After the news of Wunmi Adebayo’s death broke, the police started their investigations, which led to the arrest of her alledged boyfriend, who was remanded at The elewe eran police station in Abeokuta, but it doesnt end there. The family, I’m told decided to investigate the death of their daughter themselves, and invoked wunmi’s spirit( a common practice in many parts of Nigeria, particularly where the circumstances surrounding the death of a person is suspicious. When this is done, the killer is then tormented by the spirit of the the deceased until he or she confesses.)in other to find out how, and why she was killed.
After being continuously tormented, the alledged boyfriend is said to have confessed to the murder this morning. According to the confession of the robber, Wunmi came to his house unannounced and just barged in. When she entered, she met him and his friends drinking and making merry with guns on the table. On seeing this, Wunmi was shocked, scared and tried to run, but was caught. She was then forced at gun point to go back inside by the guy and his friends. On getting back inside the house, they beat her, raped her, then shot her in other to cover their dark secret. The boyfriend, then shot himself as well, in other to set an alibi for him self and build the “robbery story” which is currently been circulated today. Since Wunmi is no more to tell her story, he thought he would have easily gotten away with the murder, and no one will discover the true nature of what really happened.
The voice note that was sent to me was majorly spoken in Yoruba, read the translations below:
“What happened was they invoked the girl’s spirit. So they said the guy confessed this morning, and said what happened. He said that when Wunmi came his house(Wunmi thought the guy was a yahoo guy, but he was actually an armed robber), and entered, Wunmi saw guns. The guy and his friends put guns on the table, and were drinking alcohol. So as Wunmi barged in, and saw the situation, she ran out. As she ran out, they said followed her, and threatened her to go back into the house else they would shoot her. Out of fear, Wunmi obliged, and followed them back into the house. When she entered back into the house, they then beat her, raped her, and shot her. That is what really happened.”
This is the new turn of events in Wunmi Adebayo’s story, and I would keep you posted should more details unfold.
From all indication, Wunmi was indeed a victim of circumstance. May her gentle soul rest in peace.

Shan George In Sex Scandal With 21yrs Old Boy, Four Others



If report by BON is anything to go by, then controversial Nollywood actress, Shan George may be in big trouble with former PMAN president, Tee Mac Omatsola.

This is because, according to what was reported, Shan George, who recently accused some married actresses of sleeping around with men like dogs, is being alleged of nursing a sizzling romance with the Tee Mac’s 21-year-old son.

As reported, Shan was alleged to have slept with about four band members of Tee Mac, who we Cup held in South Africa in 2010. She reportedly gave the excuse of cold weather as the reason of having sex with the boys.

The report further claimed that Tee Mac was fully aware of Shan’s under ‘G’ runs with this boys she slept with but he chose to keep quite. But when Shan made effort to have a taste of Tee Mac’s handsome son, Tee Mac reportedly blocked her “dangerous” moves, knowing the kind of person she is.

It was further reported that about two months ago, Shan was suppose to make a trip to the just concluded London Olympics, where she was supposed to be among some Nigerian celebs to meet with Team Nigeria, but Tee Mac influenced the light-skinned actress being dropped when he probably forsaw that Shan would use the opportunity to concluded her mission with his son, who was part of the trip.

Ibro the dwarf challenges Aki and Pawpaw


Ibro as Ibrahim Musa is popularly known says he too wants a slice of what Aki and Pawpaw is getting. At least he has what it takes, height. At less than three feet, he is definitely in the league of Chinedu Ikedieze and Osita Iheme. 
According to the Benue state born actor who has so far featured in a few movies, he disclosed that the duo believe that his entrance into the Nollywood industry would bring down their longtime built reputation and fame to nothing, now enraging them to ponder hatreds on him as the surviving actor. “They believe I want to take over from them, while that is not my intention. The industry is so big that it can contain whatever good talent anybody is coming with. I have received series of report from people, both on pages of newspaper on how they are biffing me,” he said.
 “Not that I don’t care, but what keeps me going is the talent in me. Your talent is the determining factor, the level prominence and feed back you receive from your fans will tell you if you are trying or not. So, I keep telling them to take it easy, because they have their own fans while I have mine. I see and take them as my brothers”.
Having made his sojourn into the Nollywood industry in 2001, Ibrahim admitted that his achievement could be measured with that of when the entertainment industry took its place in the country. For him, Nollywood has changed his life, as he could boldly testify to it, “the kind of people I go out and hang out with now are mostly top business friends. Sometimes I wonder if I would have achieved the position I have gotten in life without being an actor,” he asserted

Couple deny murdering 14-year-old domestic-help  


Ikeja – A couple, Elochukwu and Chiamaka Nnajiofor, on Thursday denied the allegation that they tortured their 14-year-old domestic-help, Oliver Arakwe, to death.

Nnajiofor, a trader, made the denial while testifying at their ongoing trial before Justice Lateefat Okunnu of an Ikeja High Court in Lagos.

40-year-old Elochukwu and his wife Chiamaka, 26, were charged to court on a one-count charge of murder.

The Lagos State Directorate of Public Prosecutions (DPP) alleged that the woman had tortured the young boy for two days for “misbehaving”, which led to his death on Aug. 17, 2010.

However, the defendant, under cross-examination by the state Prosecutor, Mr Femi Adamson, maintained that Arakwe died of severe diarrhoea at the Eko Hospital, Surulere.

He said: “I never touched Oliver. The boy was sick and my wife called me that she had rushed him to the hospital.

“The boy was suffering from diarrhoea and later died despite the treatment given to him by the doctor”.

Nnajiofor denied the allegation that his wife had maltreated the deceased and two other boys that were staying with them at their residence located at No. 81, Femi Tella St., Ago Palace, Okota in Lagos.

“We were feeding them properly. My business of selling building materials was booming then and so we never maltreated them,” the defendant said.

Adamson, however, faulted the testimony, submitting that the post-mortem report showed lacerations on the body of the deceased.

He added that Emmanuel Azuka, one of the boys staying with the Nnajiofors, had several scars all over his body to substantiate the allegation of torture.

“The post-mortem report also said that the deceased was hit with a blunt object on his head and this caused his death and not any illness as you are claiming,” the prosecutor said.

The matter was adjourned to Nov. 13, for continuation of trial. (NAN)

Robbers raid star actor’s house in Enugu



The Enugu residence of star actor, Nkem Owoh, has been raided by yet-to-be-identified hoodlums who carted away his Mitsubishi Montero Jeep with number plate BU 64 FST, alongside other valuables.


Owoh, who was in Abuja when the robbery incident occurred, confirmed the report to our Enugu State correspondent on telephone on Thursday morning.

The actor, who spoke to our reporter on phone, said: "I was in Abuja last week Saturday when my neighbours called that it was like my place was burgled, that my gate appeared to be open.


"I asked them to check and they reported back that out of the three vehicles parked in the compound, the Jeep was no longer there.


"I called my driver and asked him to make a report to the police immediately, which he did."

Owoh, who has returned to Enugu as a result of the incident, further revealed that the robbers removed the burglary roof in his window, through which they were able to remove the laptop.

He said there are no suspects for now but noted that the police had been alerted.

Oil Minister Diezani’s Convoy Kills Nigerian Journalist



The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) FCT Council, has expressed sadness over the death of Mr. James Momoh of Abuja based Pilot Newspapers.
Momoh was knocked down by the convoy of the Minister of Petroleum, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, along Nicon Junction, Maitama, late Wednesday evening on his way from work.
Reports indicated that Momoh was taken to the NNPC hospital where he later gave up the ghost after the incident.
In a statement by the Chairman of Council, Comrade Chuks Ehirim, described the death of Momoh, a production staff with the newspaper, as avoidable and unfortunate.
According to Ehirim, the tragic death of Momoh brings to fore the recklessness of government convoys and their absolute disregard for traffic rules and other road users.
The NUJ FCT chairman lamented that the minister has not demonstrated any concern and human feeling for the deceased by reaching out to his relatives. He said she was rather more bothered about protecting her image.
Ehirim warned that the union will not fold its arms and watch government officials treat human lives with levity and called for proper investigation into the matter as well as proper compensation for the bereaved family

WAS 2 CHAINZ A GOOD COLLEGE BASKETBALL PLAYER?



The character known as 2 Chainz continues to showcase multiple facets. The rapper formerly known as Tity Boi, has mentioned his past as a Division I basketball player, but not too many folks actually know how good he was. To commemorate the rapper's born day (he turned 36 today), ESPN tracked down former coaches and teammates of 2 Chainz, and received thorough commentaries remembering the Atlanta rapper's exciting days as a basketball player. Check out the highlights below:
"James Gwyn, North Clayton head coach (1986-1995): He was a tough matchup. He was a 6-5, 6-6 perimeter player. He didn't play inside at all. He could handle the ball very well, pass the ball very well. He was kind of a slippery guy. The little guys couldn't guard him and the big guys couldn't stay with him."
"Donald Cunningham, North Clayton teammate: I'd compare him to someone like Scottie Pippen or Lamar Odom. Versatile, who could play the 1 through the 5. He could definitely handle the ball coming up the court without a problem; you didn't have to worry about it getting taken or no turnovers. He could be a 2-guard, a real good shooter. He had good size, he was a slasher, he could rebound. He could play a small forward or a power forward, and with his height, he could play the middle. He was already 6-5 in high school. He had good talent, he had a real good jump shot and he was taller, so he could play down low."
"Tom Schuberth, Memphis assistant coach (1992-1997): We had just lost Penny Hardaway and I remember Tauheed was kind of a combination player: a real versatile 2-3 who could maybe play a little point. He was really thin, so that was the one thing that worried us, so we never did offer him. The only thing that scared us was he was so thin."
"Rob Spivery, Alabama State head coach (1996-2005): I think if he had concentrated on basketball, and dedicated himself, he could be a pretty good player with his ball skills. He was very skillful and he could shoot the ball pretty decently. He didn't have the best of shots, but with work and the effort, he could have been a very good basketball player should he have stayed in the system we put together at Alabama State. Where the basketball talent could have taken him after he finished college is a big guess, but he really would have developed into a good player."

Dustin Hoffman, Letterman to receive Kennedy Center Honors



This year’s Kennedy Center Honors will recognize the achievements of seven artists across disciplines, from acting to comedy to dance.

Dustin Hoffman, David Letterman, Buddy Guy, ballerina Natalia Makarova, and Led Zeppelin members John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant will be honored this December for their “lifetime contributions to American culture through the performing arts,” the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts announced Wednesday.


“With their extraordinary talent, creativity and tenacity, the seven 2012 Kennedy Center Honorees have contributed significantly to the cultural life of our nation and the world,” Kennedy Center Chairman David M. Rubenstein said in a statement.

Bluesman Buddy Guy, Rubenstein said, “is a titan of the blues and has been a tremendous influence on virtually everyone who has picked up an electric guitar in the last half century.” Meanwhile, acting legend Hoffman has displayed an “unyielding commitment” while portraying a “wide variety of roles” has made him “one of the most versatile and iconoclastic actors of this or any other generation,” Rubenstein added.

“David Letterman is one of the most influential personalities in the history of television, entertaining an entire generation of late-night viewers with his unconventional wit and charm; Natalia Makarova’s profound artistry has ignited the stages of the world’s greatest ballet companies and continues to pass the torch to the next generation of dancers; and Led Zeppelin’s John Paul Jones, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant transformed the sound of rock and roll with their lyricism and innovative song structures, infusing blues into the sound of rock and roll and laying the foundation for countless rock bands,” he concluded.

The honorees will receive their Kennedy Center Honors medallions at a State Dinner hosted by Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and then on December 2 they’ll join the President and the First Lady for the annual gala.

The Tonto Dike you don’t know



Nollywood actress, Tonto Dike may strike many as a magnet for controversy, but a stroll into her world reveals there’s more to her than controversies, tattoos, cigarettes, twitter fights and drama.
Here’s the Tonto Dike you do not know:
Born on June 9th, 1985, Dike is now a force to reckon with in Nollywood, the Nigerian movie industry. With an increasing number of Nollywood movies to her credit, she has gradually acquired a large fan base among Nollywood movie fans, both in Africa and in other parts of the world such as the United States, where these movies are exceedingly popular. The light skinned, beautiful and talented Tonto has her determination and her God to thank for her break into the limelight.
Growing up without her mum, Tonto was confined to the parental care of her father and later on, her stepmother, in a family of nine. At a tender age, she gained admiration for notable Hollywood stars Julia Roberts and Al Pacino, and said to herself, ‘I can do this.‘
Her description of Julia Roberts: ‘Lighthearted and serious-minded, brave in the face of any movie role that comes her way…. I see a lot of Julia Roberts in myself.‘ The journey to acting had its rough patches, the most threatening being her admission into University to study engineering. She says, ‘Deep within my heart, I cried, thinking I would never achieve my dreams.‘ She had embraced the idea of the incompatibility between higher education and acting.
However, she decided to take on both activities with enough passion to keep her going till the end, a decision that worked in her favour. Tonto is a graduate of petrochemical engineering from the University of Science and Technology (RSUST) Nigeria.
Tonto’s big break came in 2006 through a Nigerian reality TV show, The Next Movie Star, where she emerged the first runner-up, exposing her to the world of Nigerian movie entertainment. Her experience, she says, was a lot of fun and very emotional, helping her learn the concepts of theater arts, including character analysis and interpretation.
At the end of the reality TV show, Tonto had become acquainted with a few people in the industry who believed in her dreams, and movie roles started coming. Since then, she has been fully involved in a series of Nigerian movies, acting alongside other prominent Nigerian actors.
She still has bigger dreams, with Hollywood and the opportunity to take classes at the New York Film Academy as her next targets. She also intends to own a standard editing studio and a petrochemicals firm in Nigeria.
Apart from starring in movies, Tonto loves dancing, reading fictional novels and her Bible. With her impressive aspirations, there’s definitely a lot more to come from Miss Tonto Dikeh.
Up close and Personal with Miss Tonto Dikeh:
WHO I AM…
I’m a very simple person by nature, I’m focused, I’m very business minded, I’m more of an indoors person (that you might be able to understand from my childhood), I’m an independent woman, I’m a good listener, I’m a very emotional person I hate to see people cry and hurt, I’m a very understanding person but  I lack patience. I’m not exactly a quiet person, I love originality, I love to be myself in everything I do, I love to see people around me useful and productive. I’m a very hard working woman, a woman proud of herself but not pompous, I hate free times and holidays….Above all, I am a very good Christian…
MY FEARS…
I am a very fearless person, I love to take all the risk Life brings my way, sometimes I come out wounded but I learn from it all and it makes me a stronger person than I was…..but my greatest fear or worry is FAILURE…..I see it as a plague…
MY HAPPIEST MOMENTS…
My happiest moment is when I’m in church, where I can feel the presence of God…For me it’s a place of peace, a place I can talk to My Creator the only one who sees me for who I am, who never criticizes me, the only one who understands all things. I love my moment with God, IT REFRESHES ME AND MAKES ME HAPPY….
MY ROLE MODELS…
My Number one person I look up to after My GOD is my Papi (dad), he is an inspiration to me in so many ways, he gives me strength to go on when everything seems down…
In the Movie industry I admire AL-PACINO and JULIE ROBERTS, I think they are fantastic actors (Their ability to play different roles in different movies without a trace of characterization carry over is an amazing thing)….In Nollywood I admire the likes of RITA DOMINIC, INI EDO, RAMSEY NOAH, RICHARD MOFE-DAMIJO..
MY HOBBIES…
I love driving a lot and watching movies…
MY PHILOSOPHIES OF LIFE…
1. Life is only for the living, so make good use of what’s left of your life on earth…
2. There is nothing that we go through in life that God doesn’t know we can come out of, because if you can’t, God wouldn’t let it come to you…
3. Everyone is special in their own way…
4. Nobody was born a pauper, the riches we desire is within us we only need to lok harder…
5. If you think your situation is the worst, wait till you hear what other peple are going through…
6. Envy and Bitterness is only a way of stopping your blessings..

Former governor James Ibori turns prayer warrior in UK prison



Former Delta State Governor, James Onanefe ibori is now experiencing the golden truth about the Biblical saying that “whatever a man soweth, that he shall reap.” Ibori sowed the seed of corruption in his 8-year rule as Delta State helmsman. He was crafty enough to escape.

Sources from the prisons, said the former Delta State Governor is now an imprisonment in Nigeria, but not in the United Kingdom where he was slammed with 13 years imprisonment by a Southwark Crown Court in London. Now, James Ibori is alleged to be full of regrets for his past misdeeds. He has also reportedly turned a new leaf. ardent student of the Bible which he now carries always as a companion.

“Ibori has been visited by the Holy Spirit; he is no longer the same. From the way he now talks, it seems old things have passed away and all things have become new. I observed that he said a little prayer when he alighted from the prison van and when he was standing in the dock. I heard something like God is in control from him as he walked away from the court. He was really looking very sober, I think he may have become a born again Christian,” the source said.

The former strongman of Delta politics has now become an avid Bible reader as he recently told a relative in a message that he has been reading and studying the message of the Bible as well as engaged in fervent prayers in the prisons.

“Ibori inferred in a censored message he sent to one of his relatives who interacted with me that he spent most of his days in detention reading the Bible and praying fervently. He said he has fasted about four days in prison. He described his prison cell as being okay but not too comfortable,” our sources added.

KIM KARDASHIAN Wears See Through Bra, Wishes Fans “Sweet Dreams” (PHOTO)




KIM KARDASHIAN wore a see through bra in one of her latest Twitter photos and wished her fans “Sweet Dreams” with it.
Unfortunately, we don’t think many were able to sleep after seeing this image:

As usual, Kim Kardashian couldn’t bear do a racy photo shoot—which she once called a “vintage” shoot where she lays down on a slab in a semi-sheer white lingerie with garter belts, a pearl necklace and some fur—and not show it to her fans.
But while she looked like she was in a rather uncomfortable pose and clothing to sleep in (although she’s obviously very used to wearing lingerie by now) the reality star tweeted “Goodnight” along with the picture.

And to make sure that viewers do get a good night’s sleep, she uploaded a closer shot—this time, with her left nipple more visible through her bra—with the message:
“Sweet dreams.”
Clearly, jammies and night gowns are overrated.
What can you say about Kim‘s latest lingerie pics?

BIG SHAME: Nigerian Government No Show to Receive Winning Paralympics Team – “In Our Country, Nobody Regards us as Anybody”

What a big shame. Enough said. “When the 29-man team arrived the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) at about 2.30pm on Tuesday afternoon, there was no official of National Sports Commission on hand to receive them. . . Nigeria finished in 22nd position at the global showpiece with a total of 13 medals comprising 6 gold 5 silver and 2 bronze medals.”- Channels TV - Photo: Yakubu Adesokan, winner of the 1st gold medal for Nigeria at the 2012 Paralympics London event in the 48kg class Power Lifting category.

ALBUM REVIEW : LIL WAYNE, DEDICATION 4




Despite his blatant charade of nonchalance (which was heavily conveyed at this year's MTV Video Music Awards as he listened to music on his headphones throughout most of the event), Lil Wayne does care about his legacy. "I hope I'm remembered," Weezy confesses at the very end of his latest offering, Dedication 4. With D4, he adds another chapter to his legacy as an inventive artist who could flip the same subject matters until kingdom come.
The title of the second track encapsulates the entire tape, for it is indeed the "Same Damn Tune." Birdman Junior's skillful wordplay over others' beats and a few originals has clearly not tailed off. "You know that I ain't got no ceilings/The money changed me/I'm making cha-millions," Weezy voices over the instrumental to Meek Mill's "Amen." That is not to say he lacks weak lyrics on D4 ("Smoke so much that Smokey the Bear have to bear with us," Tunechi blandly phrases on one of his new singles, "No Worries," produced by Detail).
However, bars as dull as those are few and far between, almost as rare as the moments when featured guests pulled a Jay-Z, contribute a scene-stealing verse. It is debatable whether J. Cole did just that on "Green Ranger," yet that is not the case for Nicki Minaj's guest spot on "Mercy." Both artists represented YMCMB well over the G.O.O.D. Music clique's instrumental, but Nicki just went harder, generating one of her most infamous bars to date. "I'm a Republican, voting for Mitt Romney/You lazy bitches fucking up thee economy," Nicki spit, to her Barbz's pleasure and Democrats' disgust, leading to death threats via Twitter.
Even so, Weezy surely does not mind sharing his colossal limelight, as proven by his lukewarm offerings I Am Not a Human Being and Dedication 3, both of which were flooded with features. Tune proves this once again on D4, not contributing a single bar to "My Homies Still (RMX)," which allowed Young Jeezy, Jae Millz and Gudda Gudda to rock the mic without his assistance. For all that, most tracks that feature another artist ("Amen," "Mercy," "Get Smoked" and "Green Ranger") seem to bring the best out of the New Orleans native. "I'm on a pain pill/I keep this shit trill/These niggas ain't for real, like a fire drill/Yo ho on my back, like a fucking fifth wheel/That bitch make her pussy open and close like fish gills," he asserts on "Get Smoked."
Dedication 4 features some trademark Lil Wayne, another impressive array of plays on words about oral sex, life euphemisms, drugs, superiority over others, light-skinned women and guns, while adding some new content to the short list--namely, his newest clothing line, Trukfit. Weezy will celebrate his 30th birthday later this month, and although D4 will not be celebrated as much some of his other work, he does reminds all why Hova considered sending "D.O.A. (Death of Auto-Tune)" to "the Mixtape Weezy."
