Nollywood Producer Threatens To Arrest Tonto Dike

Jumping from one set to another among movie stars has become a recurring decimal in Nollywood and often results in war between the parties involved. This time around the war is between controversial Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh and a notable producer based in Asaba.
It was gathered that the controversial actress disappeared from the set since Monday, and has never bothered to show up till this moment.

Our source said, Tonto left the set, on the pretext that she was travelling to Lagos, only for her to resume work in another production.

As it stands now, the producer is said to have alerted the leadership of the Actors Guild of Nigeria(AGN), and he is threatening to get the actress arrested should she fails to return to his set latest this weekend.

"This is the height of indiscipline in Nollywood. Tonto claimed that she was travelling to Lagos and would be back on Tuesday. Only for her to join another production. We have reported the matter to the Secretary-General of AGN.

"Her absence has delayed the completion of our production which we started nine days ago. We are supposed to be rounding off this weekend but we can't. Tonto cannot disappear with all the money we have paid her." an angry source fumed.
Directed by Nonso Ekene Okonkwo, Tonto is starring in the movie alongside Frank Atus, Queen Nwokoye, Oluchi Ukaku among other stars. The movie is titled " Blood Rage."

How Prison Warden Was Killed By A Police Officer While Celebrating His New Car

The deceased, Erezidor Ugo, a Prison Inspector, aged 30, is an indigene of Sabageria in the Kolokuma-Opokuma local government area of Bayelsa State while his wife, Mrs. Binafegha Ugo, a PA3  aged 25 is also a staff of the Bayelsa State Prison Command.

There were conflicting accounts of the tragic incident .While one version had it that the deceased was killed by a policeman who fired at him, another account stated that he was accidentally killed by a bullet from the rifle of one of his (Prison) colleagues as the police tried to disarm him.

When Saturday Vanguard visited the residence of the deceased close to Wisdom Estate, some distance away from the private residence of President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday morning, the young wife was grief-stricken.

Some neighbours who came to condole the bereaved woman also broke down in tears when the six year old daughter of the deceased, Tari came and asked her sobbing mother, "mummy why has daddy not returned, hope my daddy is okay? Daddy's body was covered with blood when he was taken away," the little girl said naively.

It was a sorrowful moment as his neighbours wept freely, wondering why it should be Erezidor who they described as gentle and easy going and loved by all in the neighbourhood because of his unassuming disposition.

The late Prison warder who had just returned with his wife from a wake keep at Sabageria was playing host to two of his colleagues who had come to celebrate with him on the fateful Sunday over the new car which he (deceased) bought last week when he was shot in the presence of his wife, also a prison official and her six year old daughter.

While the celebration was going on in a sit-out near his house, eye witnesses told Saturday Vanguard that one of the armed prison officials fired some shots into the air which caused panic and pandemonium within the Nikton road axis, in the heart of the state capital.

The gunshots reportedly attracted security attention and a police team led by the Divisional Police Officer (DPO) in-charge of Ekeki Police Station, Nemi Iwo rushed to the scene, few metres away from Jonathan's house. The police team was said to have noticed one of the Prison Warders carrying a gun and tried to disarm him but he allegedly refused to hand over the gun and instead removed the magazine. The deceased Ugo was said to have collected the magazine and took same to his house for safe keep.

An eyewitness said a police corporal had earlier fired a warning shot ostensibly to compel the Prison official to surrender the gun in his possession. It was learnt that as the deceased was returning to the scene of the ensuing struggle to go with the police to the station, one of the rifles triggered off and hit the deceased on the left side of his stomach and pierced through the other side, leaving him in grave danger, eyewitnesses said.

But the deceased, Ugo died on the way to the Glory land Hospital, Yenagoa where he was rushed for treatment.

Shaunie O’Neal Issues Statement On Basketball Wives Drama

Shaunie O’Neal released a statement after Jennifer Williams filed a lawsuit against Nia Crooks for slapping her. Shaunie is basically saying she’s above the constant fighting on the show and not directly involved in the drama. Since she’s an executive producer of the show, I’m going to take what she has to say with a pound of salt.

“I’m extremely happy that Basketball Wives continues to have another successful fourth season. As the ratings have been through the roof since our season opener, fans continue to tune into the lives of Evelyn, Tami, Jennifer, Royce, Suzie and myself. As there is always controversy and indifference projected on the show, because we are all individual personalities, I always hope that people will find that as much as you may agree or disagree with the opinions, the behavior, [and] even our different taste in shoes, you are taking a look inside the lives of four complete different women. I will never say I agree with some of the behavior between my girlfriends on the show, but if we were to edit certain things out the show would be scripted and not reality. [insert side eye here]

As a woman of color with kids, I am very aware of myself, but I also have to be aware that my choices cannot be the same for everyone on the show and I have to respect that. I hope the fans feel they see a balance and know we have always been real with our stories, even though it may not always be a positive portrayal of adult women but real women nonetheless. I look forward to developing other media platforms in the future and hope that fans will continue to support.”

Nicki Minaj Explains Leaving Twitter, Meaning Of "Beez In The Trap"

Curiosity about Nicki Minaj abandoning Twitter has apparently caught on overseas, as the Young Money rapper broached the subject on a British talk show.

"A voice in my head told me to delete Twitter, and that's what I did," explained Nicki on "The Graham Norton Show."

When asked who her 11 million followers will follow now, Nicki replied, "I hope they'll wait for me," seemingly implying that she would return to the wildly popular social networking platform."I know they will."

Nicki also discussed her song, "Beez In The Trap."  "It just means, 'I am always...' you know, that's our slang way of saying, 'I beez doing such-and-such-and-such.' So it's really like, 'I am always in the trap.' Now, the trap, ladies and gentlemen, relates to anywhere where you get your money."

Suge Knight: "Maybe The Question is 'Pac's Not Really Dead"

Witnessing the incredible image of the 2Pac hologram perform alongside Snoop Dogg at the Coachella music festival last week was surreal for many hip-hop fans. For many, it was almost like Tupac Shakur was alive and well again.

But if you ask Suge Knight, Shakur might be still alive.

During a recent appearance on 93.5 KDay in Los Angeles, the former Death Row Records co-CEO fed into one of the biggest urban legends in hip-hop...that 'Pac may still be alive.

"Maybe the question is ... 'Pac's not really dead ... 'Pac's somewhere else," Knight said live on the air. "Nobody seen Tupac dead. The person who supposedly creamted Tupac, this guy got about $3 million ... personally from me ... cash ... and next thing I know I never heard from the guy or seen him again. He retired and left."

Of course, Knight was behind the wheel, riding with Tupac, when the rap star was murdered in Las Vegas back in 1996. The murder has remained a cold case through the years, as is the homicide of the Notorious B.I.G.

The 2Pac hologram was a breath of fresh air, only adding to the legend of the late great MC. As previously reported, according to a source that spoke to the Wall Street Journal, reps for Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg are planning out the logistics of putting together a tour that would place the West Coast legends alongside the virtual 'Pac on tour.
"This is just the beginning," Ed Ulbrich, the Chief Creative Officer of Digital Domain, the company responsible for the 2-D hologram at Coachella, told the Wall Street Journal.
