Popular rapper, Jesse Jagz, in a recent interview with Punchng.com has revealed that he doesn’t listen to any other artiste’s song.
Responding to a question on which rapper he currently admires, Jagz said, “I don’t listen to other people’s music; I just like to do my thing. I create my own music and I motivate myself. I feel like everybody is doing fine in their own way but I just stay on my own lane. The only person I can put my money on is me.”
The rapper also disagreed with the opinion of some that rap music is fast dying in Nigeria. He said, “It is not true that rap music is fading away in the country. Rather, there is a lack of good music. These days, people mostly listen to pop music and that is what most artistes gravitate towards. Many people don’t listen to rap music anymore because they don’t have quality options. However, I think it is all about time. Rap music will still come round.”
Jagz also stated that he had never regretted being a rapper. “I have never regretted being a rap artiste or considered doing the more commercial music like you call it,” he said.
Veteran actress, Idowu Phillips, aka Iya Rainbow, has remained unmarried after the death of her husband 35 years ago.
In a chat with Punchng.com, the actress remarked that she was no longer interested in being joined in matrimony with anyone.
She said, “Over my dead body would I get married again. My husband closed (my heart) with a padlock and he went away with the key. I don’t trust the men of these days. There was one that said he wanted to marry me but he ran away after he saw all my kids. I have forgotten how to want a man. With five kids to cater for, I had no thoughts of that. In those days, I could go to four different locations in a day, to tell you how hard I was working to make money to take care of my children.”
Recalling how her late husband died, she said, “I can never forget the day my husband died in 1984. I felt the world was going to end on that day. He was my alpha and omega. I used to be a nurse but he was the one that made me to become an actress. As a matter of fact, during his burial, I told people to put all our children with him in the grave that I didn’t want them again. The shock was just too much for me to bear. Imagine one becoming a widow at the age of 42.”
Afropop star, Davido has newly disclosed that he was left with no choice than to pay a sum of £55,000 so as to make his 02 Arena show begin late.
The singer, while speaking to DJ Ebro on Hot 96 FM in New York, said;
“I was scared though, because … first of all, you know how we Africans do, we’re always late, we take time
“They said I gotta get on stage by 8, and I said alright and then by 8 o’clock my boy come tell me that brother you can’t go on stage right now and I say what you mean, he said brother everybody is still walking around, I looked at the stadium, half empty. I was going crazy.”
He went on to reveal that he had to pay for a 55-minute extension which costs £55,000.
“I’ll pay two hundred thousand pounds in this place. Me, the way I know my people, people want me to fail.
“If I go on that stage that place is half empty, somebody will take that picture and that picture will go father than anything. I waited till that place was filled.
“I waited for about an hour and thirty before we started. I’d rather pay the fine because people don’t want you to win. Negativity goes way farther than positivity.”
The 26-year-old singer, who described his father as his biggest fan, said his global success began when he decided to focus on Nigeria.
“When I was out here (in America) for like eight months, nothing really happened. But it was when I decided to finally go back home. When I got back home to do what I do, then people started sending me snaps that yo, I’m hearing your songs every day.”
Nigerian activist, Deji Adeyanju who just regained freedom after 78-days in jail has described his detention as “Vitamin C that has re-energised and refreshed” him.
He vows to remain committed to holding government accountable and speaking the truth to power all the time. Adeyanju arrived Nnamdi Azikwe International Airport at 1:30pm and thanked those who stood by him throughout the time he was in prison in Kano.
“For me, I am convinced that when you lock up an activist in prison, what you are doing is that you are just giving him Vitamin C so that he can be refreshed. So, I have gone in, I am refreshed, I am re-energised. So, government should prepare for four more years of activism,” Deji said.
He wondered why the government singled him out for persecution with ‘no just cause,’ and expressed gratitude to President Buhari for making him popular during his travail. The activist said his detention has further spurred him to be more focused, dedicated and resilient, adding that he would continue to expose all forms of injustices, propaganda and lies of the government, irrespective of the intimidation and harassment.
He said he was not afraid of being re-arrested by the government, noting that he would not stop fighting and speaking the truth, which is what he knows how to do best. He, however, denied insinuations that he was being used by opposition parties.
“If it is PDP, we will still criticise, but if they don’t want to be criticised, they should leave and go to Daura. In as much as they are on top of the seat, they should get ready for criticism,” he declared.
Adeyanju was granted bail by a court in Kano last week after he had spent more than two months in prison, following his arrest by the Police over a murder case of which he had been acquitted since 2009 by a Kano High Court.

The singer who has been off the radar for some time now wrote that one way on how to help the poor around you is to stop being one but that really sit too well with his fans as they tagged his tweet insensitive.
His tweet reads ;
ANOTHER WAY TO HELP POOR PEOPLE IS TO MAKE SURE YOU DON’T BECOME ONE.
One Angry Nigerian went guns blazing on the singer as he reminded the ‘God win’ singer that he hasn’t dropped any hit song in a while now ;
PELE MILLION DOLLAR CHILD… ABURO BILL GATE…. WHEN LAST DID YOU DROP A HIT??…. YOU’RE NOT HELPING DEM BRO BECAUSE YOU MIGHT SOON BE JOINING THEM SOON…. PEACE
The tweet triggered mixed reactions and here are some.
Last week, an interview in which the lover of Bread seller turned model, Olajumoke Orisaguna, Sunday Orisaguna, alleged that their relationship is in crisis, went viral.
Sunday in the viral interview, was quoted to have said that his union with Olajumoke is currently in crisis as she no longer respects him, keeps late night and has no regard for their home.
Olajumoke shot into limelight in 2016 after she unknowningly ”photobombed” a photo shoot celebrity photographer, TY Bello was having with London-based rapper, Tinie Tempah, in Lagos. Many Nigerians took to her after the photos surfaced online.
Well, Olajumoke, has reacted to the controversial interview Sunday granted. In a fresh interview with Punch, she denied claims that they are no longer together. She insinuated that their differences is not unconnected with the fact that she no longer gives all her money to him. She added that she leaves Sunday to God.
“Anybody can say whatever pleases them with their mouth. He is the one that has been spreading such stories. When a man knows everything about you, he can choose to do whatever with that information. As for me, I am okay and there is nothing wrong with me.” she said
Denying that there was any rift in their union, Olajumoke said,
“Whatever is going on is known to God. We are still together. He has never discussed all what he has been saying outside with me, so I don’t understand what he is driving at because we sleep in the same house. Well, he can continue saying whatever pleases him but I will not say anything bad about him. There is nobody I will discuss his matter with; I just leave him to God. God will judge between us.”
Asked if Sunday was displeased because she no longer gave him money, Olajumoke said,
“Now you understand what I have been saying. I do not need to break it down beyond that; you already know what I mean. I will not say anything bad about him. I have handed him to God.”
Reacting to the claims that she has broken up with her former manager, Azuka Ogujuiba, Olajumoke said
“Azuka was one of the people that assisted me at the inception of my career. She is usually busy and that is why I decided to change my manager. I still communicate regularly with Azuka and we have even spoken today (Thursday). She and TY Bello are like sisters to me.”
Olajumoke said she hadn’t become a spendthrift since she came to the limelight. “I have always been a good manager. Even when I was working in the bakery, I knew how to manage the resources available to me. Can you imagine a man not working for two years and being fed by a woman?”

I got the goods for you.’ It happened in my career when someone offered me a show and I was like, ‘This is it!’ and then the show went to nowhere. I got borderline depressed. Cut to ‘Insecure.’ Cut to my life has changed,”

She wrote:
So I just got off the phone with a childhood friend of mine who’s having relationship issues and feels her last resort is to get off the pills and have a baby for him.
In her naïve mind, that will certainly hold him down. Well..I ain’t no counselor, neither I’m i clairvoyant, but I do know this however, that, a baby WON’T keep a man, being beautiful WON’T keep a man, sex WON’T keep a man, Heck, being a good woman, BARELY keeps a man. The only thing that’ll keep a man, is A MAN THAT WANTS TO BE KEPT! #Periodt!
The Miyetti Allah Kautal Hore Socio-cultural Association has reacted to the re-election of President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to DailySun, the National President of the association, Bello Abdullahi Bodejo said that even Fulani cows are happy over the victory of President Buhari over the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
Recall that both major contenders in the 2019 presidential election, Atiku and Buhari are both Fulanis.
Bello claimed that so many people tried to use money to buy the group but they were led by their belief in Buhari.
Bello added, “The game is finished and we are already in the Next Level. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has done a good job.
“As for me, since the last two weeks, I knew that President Buhari would win the election. He campaigned all over the country and the masses like him.
“Even if he did not go round and stayed in Abuja, he would still have won the election because of the love of people for him.
“It was obvious that the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar was going to lose the election to Buhari
“This time, President Buhari has to check the people around him very well. Not all of them are giving him good advice.
“I believe that by now, he already knows those who like Nigeria and those do not like Nigeria. It is now that the real change will come.
“I believe that Baba will bring a lot of change to Nigeria. Even the cows in the bush are now happy and will know that very soon, change will reach them.
“Today (Wednesday), when I wanted to harvest milk from my cow, I noticed that it was double what I used to get.
“Through that, I know that something good is coming to the country. So, even the cows are happy and feeling that change has come.
“Before now, after every election, you used to have all manner of crises but since Buhari won, you can see that everywhere is calm.
“Everybody is very happy; some are dancing and killing animals to do sacrifice. We, the Fulani are praying for him and that he should remember us.
“The Fulani are really suffering; they are killing the Fulani everywhere but we cannot leave President Buhari. We believe in him.
“He is our son, father and grandfather. I urge him to remove all the people around him who are enemies of his administration.
“During the campaigns, many people including Atiku were trying to poison the minds of the Fulani that Buhari did not do anything for us.
“We understood that Buhari entered government at a time that everything had spoilt in the country.
“I believe that Buhari is going to do a lot now. So many people tried to use money to buy us but we believe in Buhari. We are praying that Buhari will listen to the leadership of the Fulani.”

Senior Advocate of Nigeria and Human Rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana has revealed he would have been surprised if Atiku had won the 2019 presidential election.
Femi Falana revealed this on Hard Copy, a Channels Television programme which airs on Fridays.
He said;
I would have been surprised if Atiku had won. Atiku’s emergence has negative implications. He will have to defend many negative comments by Obasanjo.
“He is under investigation by the United States Government. He never came out to deny the representation that he will enrich his friends. Atiku was going to sell the NNPC to his friends.”
Asked if Atiku could win in court, Falana said: “Atiku’s chances in court are very tough.”
Now we’re not going to come out bold and say we’re quite sure about who the cross-dresser is firing shots at but we most definitely can’t just neglect the coincidence between the time he fired the shots and the birthday of a particular socialite known to be his arch enemy.
Fans and followers were choked with sultry pre-birthday photos of a well known celebrity fashion stylist on Instagram recently – the photos were so eye-popping that even actress, Mercy Aigbe was at the verge of ‘leaving Instagram’ for this person, since she wants to be the one to take all the shine.
Sharing a photo of the lady in a bid to wish her a happy birthday, Mercy wrote,
What did we do to you to deserve all this tensioning ??? ********* …… I am leaving IG for you oh! I cannot allow somebody to come and give me ‘Depression’….. see Body ?????? HBD in advance to a hard worker! A goal getter! An inspiration ❤️
Somebody call fire service! IG is on Fire ********* wants to burn all of us oh ☹️☹️????? Pls gather in the comment section and hold your placard if you are joining me to protest against ******** Chisos! See body! ????? …. Abeg somebody cannot come and give us depression oh ☹️????
Now, this fashionista herself has been on and about her birthday on her Instagram page for a while now and reports have it that the mother of one will be turning 37.
It’s highly probable that this birthday shenanigans got to cross-dresser, Bobrisky and being an arch enemy, the effeminate threw a subtle shade by calling the celebrity stylist ‘broke’ who’s seemingly wasting money on her birthday.
In his usual fashion, Bobrisky is one who doesn’t show subtlety when firing shots as he shoots directly at his targets without thinking twice – well, this just might be an exception for him cause he’s probably envious of the attention his arch enemy is getting and we all know the cross-dresser is an attention-monger.
