There has been growing concern over the whereabouts of Nigeria’s First Lady, Mrs. Aisha Buhari as she has not been campaigning along with President Muhammadu in his re-election bid.
TheCable understands that she is currently in Germany for medical reasons, although her office has refused to confirm or deny the speculation.
When contacted, Suleiman Haruna, media aide to the president’s wife, said he did not have any comments.
“Honestly, honestly, I don’t have any comment on that. People have been calling me. I don’t have any comment on that,” Haruna said.
Speaking with TheCable on Wednesday, a presidency source explained that the president’s wife has not been seen campaigning for her husband “because she is ill”.
“For about two weeks now, you will observe that the president’s wife has not been campaigning. She is ill and she has travelled abroad for treatment,” the source said.
President Muhammadu Buhari has stated that the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, created a problem for him in the South-East zone of the country.
During his presidential campaign in Enugu, Buhari disclosed that Amaechi promised the people of South-East that his administration will construct a railway linking their region to the Northern part of the country.
According to Buhari, fulfilling the promise made by Amaechi would be difficult because the minister didn’t submit any proposal of such to the Federal Executive Council. He, however, assured that people that he would convince the Federal Executive Council members for the project to be approved.
He said: “Amaechi has made you people a promise and I don’t know how to fulfil it. But I can see how I will fulfil it by getting the Federal Executive Council members to approve it.”
Buhari also urged the people of the zone to continue to have faith in Nigeria and thanked them for coming out to welcome him as he campaigned in the region.
He said: “We all must join hands to build a stronger country as we do not have any other country.”
The president added that his administration is focused on doing the things needed for progress in the country.
“if we get the roads done, get the rail lines done, and get other infrastructure done, we will be making progress,” he said.
An infamous thief has been apprehended after stealing in the eastern part of Nigeria.
It was gathered that the suspect was traced to his home after a theft where shocking items were found in his possession during a search and Panties, bras, cream, ear rings, soap, cash among other items were recovered from his house.
When quizzed by those who nabbed him why he stole the panties and bras in particular, the suspect said he doesn’t know why he stole them.
He said he went to a house to steal only money but didn’t know the spirit that entered into him which made him to steal the underwear.
The serial thief said the panties and bras are of no use to him but decided to keep them in his house.
Actress Omoni Oboli has issued an advice to an online beggar who crept into her page to beg for money so she could feed.
The online beggar wrote:
“Please can someone help me with just 1k. I’m hungry. I just want to eat. Thank you and may God bless you.”
Omoni Oboli responded as seen in the screenshot below.
The above response not being enough, Omoni Oboli took a screenshot of the lady’s message and posted it on her page with the below caption.
“These are the issues… I have never responded to begging comments ever because I know first hand that we’ve all needed a little assistance and maybe even still do so we have to ask but… You are asking for assistance for what exactly? What is the end game? Is it to start a business that will eventually give you some financial freedom? If so, fantastic! I applaud you!
When it becomes a lifestyle is when it gets worrisome. How do you for months or years drop the same comment on hundreds or thousands of posts? It reminds me of those days nicely dressed guys would come to you outside business places and say they lost their wallet and they just needed transport fare. You will then know you’ve been had, when the same guy meets you the following week with the exact same story. It’s now online.
We all know country hard. Leave o, it’s really hard for many people and we try in our small capacity to help as many people as we can…But if you are an able bodied young person, think of what you can do and then you can beg for the money to do it. I know free money is sweet. Believe me, as hard as I work for my money, the kind of dance I dance when I get free money nor be here but…there’s dignity in making your own money. Dignity in doing something that will not only give you money but bring satisfaction and fulfillment.
My darling young lady deleted her comment after my response to her. Luckily I had screenshot it. I had thought she would come to my DM asking for assistance to start something but she deleted her comment. What does that tell you? Please my fellow hustlers, nobody owes anybody anything! Stand up and do something! God bless our hustle.”
Operatives of the Nigerian Customs Service in Niger State has impounded a trailer carrying tramadol and other substances suspected to be illicit drugs worth about forty-four million naira (N44,000,000).
The trailer carrying the items was intercepted by the service’ special strike force along minna-suleja-minna road.
They were concealed under sacks and other items.
Briefing journalists on the seizure and other seizures made, at the Nigerian customs service command headquarters in Minna, the national coordinator of the strike force, Deputy Comptroller of Customs, Abdullahi Kirawa said but for the eagle eye of men and officers in his team, the items would have made their way into the society, pointing out what dangers they could pose to the society.
He said one person has been arrested in connection to the items and that investigation is still ongoing to unravel other culprits.
Mr Kirawa called on members of the public to cooperate with the Nigerian customs service and to be vigilant to report any smuggling activities around them.
The Customs Service strike force coordinator also took members of the press around the warehouse of the showcase other items seized by the team, which include seven hundred and thirty-three bags of foreign rice, eighteen bales of used clothing, vehicles and used tires illegally being smuggled into the country through various routes.
The growing use of the internet and the use of smartphones has played a great role in increased interest in Naija entertainment gist. Social media campaigns have also boosted the Nigerian entertainment. The musicians have seen an increase in digital sales of their music, online streaming, and increased downloads. Other trends include the increased demand for the Nigerian films from within and outside the country. Despite other challenges such as piracy and poor distribution channels, the Nigerian entertainment industry has remained a goldmine. Here are the various things which took place in the Nigerian entertainment industry.
The Growth of the Industry
The media and entertainment industry witnessed a large growth of about 25percent. This amounted to about $4 billion. Increased internet access is attributed to be one of the factors for the growth of the industry with the $600 million out of the $770 million attributed to it. Nollywood is also the third largest player in the film industry and 90% of its growth is attributed to the increased internet access.
Growth of Music
Due to the increased consumption of music by the Nigerians on the mobile devices as compared to television, the music industry also reported a big boom. The musicians also made revenue from a number of performances within and outside Nigeria, ring back tones, music streaming and music licensing. Some of the Nigerian artists also had a series of collaborations with international artists which increased their exposure and hence increasing their revenue.
Regulation by Federal Government
After coming into power, the Muhammadu Buhari administration came up with a number of regulations in the creative industry to create a structure which would allow for the growth of a vibrant entertainment industry. Some of them include the dividends which were given to finance the industry however still there are no signs of the dividends in the industry.
In a meeting with the Motion Pictures Practitioners Association, the President said that he had instructed the Bank of Industry to provide capital to the entertainment industry as part of uplifting the efforts made by the industry.
The practitioners have embraced private investment and relied on the use of social media as a way of increasing their coverage.
Lose of Naija Top Talents
As it happens each year, Nigeria also lost a number of stars in the entertainment industry to the brutal hand of death in 2018. They include Chike Osuji, Nelson Oluchukwu, Ikenga Gblie among others. Popular singer Ras Kimono also passed away.
Piracy
Piracy has still remained one of the big issues in the entertainment industry even though the Nigerian Copyright Act of 2004 was put in place to protect intellectual property. Most of the stakeholders have attributed to the increased copyright infringement to the poor enactment of laws, corruption and the inability of the courts to prosecute the offenders. Piracy hit harder in 2018 and most of the stakeholders called for the need to collaborate to end the issue.
Despite the challenges which the Naija entertainment gist faces, the industry is growing at a faster rate. In 2019, there are a number of expectations on the growth of the industry. Besides, increased collaboration between the stakeholders and the government will lead to a decrease in the number of issues affecting the industry.
Davido and Chioma are still going strong.. and it seems as though he may do the ‘proper thing’, by marrying her just soon enough.

Davido who is “madly in love with her,” took to her comment section to declare her the love of his life. See their exchange below, and the photos after;
Meanwhile, Chioma, who is a Chef has revealed how she met her superstar boyfriend.
In an Instagram question and answer session with her followers, Chioma Rowland, explained that she met the popular singer while they were in the university.

“My friend used to date his friend so from there it just happened.”
A man has narrated how his sister died after being allegedly poisoned for marrying against family wish.
The lady reportedly got married to the man, despite being hated so much by the husband’s family members.
It was revealed that all that was done to prevent the couple from getting married, didn’t work as they tied the knot few years later after she conceived for him.
Read the full story below :
Anambra people have this hatred for Imo women. Sometime I read a heartbreaking story concerning a marriage between an Anambra man and Imo girl,marriage only lasted for two months which the ended up throwing her properties out for her because the man’s family never liked the girl.now this.
You can only see peace in a marriage between an IMO state man and Anambra lady not the other way round. Please ladies give me your attention.
Any relationship that your boyfriend’s/fiancé parents doesn’t approve of and you’ve done your best to make them love you yet they refuse. Sweetheart, please in the name of God Almighty,run for your dear life. Your life is worth more than that. Take a very good look at these pictures here, that was my sister though she’s gone(Dead).
Well, some years back my big sis met this guy and they fell in love,they dated for over 7 solid years,but his parents were against their Union. The mother,father and his elder sister in particular hated her with passion. Despite the fact that she loves, respects and showers them with gifts.
His father’s reason (according to his son) was that, he can’t marry an Imo lady an educated one at that. His mother’s reason was that she wanted a very light skinned lady for her son. While his sister’s reason was that she was too pretty to make a good wife for her brother (stating that pretty ladies cheat).
We tried all we could to separate them including involving the police, but all to no avail, he vowed that he’d rather die than break up with her and so did my sister. Meanwhile, while they were still dating, sometimes his parents come to my sister’s abode and beat her up warning her to stay away from their son. And she kept it all away from us(Her family).
Along the line she took in and had a son for him. Yet his parents vowed and said over their dead bodies would they ever consent to their union. Five years later,his family finally came to us pleading and saying that they have agreed that their son should finally tie the nut with my sister. But I refused,likewise my mom and my siblings.
The traditional marriage was held on the 20th Feb 2012 in my hometown. She followed her in-laws home that same day(As tradition demands). About a week with them in their home in Oba Anambra state,they brought her home very sick.
A week later she passed on in Usman Danfodio Teaching Hospital Sokoto state(UDUTH). After the doctors discovered she had food poisoning which was meant to kill her slowly. She died right in my arms in the hospital,after vomiting so much blood.
About three years later,his parents got him another woman from their home town who unfortunately has now become a torn in their flesh. And also maltreats my little nephew so much that it always makes me cry. Not only that, She also engages her so called in-laws in physical combat,and recently her father in-law passed on mysteriously.
So my dear,there’s more to marriage than just you and your spouse. The both families have to appreciate,love and give their consent otherwise you might not find peace in that home, that’s if you don’t end up loosing your precious life along the line. Like my sis.
Nobody is worth dying for all in the name of love. Cus the moment you’re gone they’ll move on with their lives. Be wise my sister.
Now my sister & bestie is gone to return no more all in the name of Love.

A minister has landed in trouble after sharing pornographic video in a WhatsApp group.
Police say the Zambian Minister of Chiefs and Traditional Affairs, Lawrence Sichalwe committed an offence of being in possession of a pornographic video by virtue of him sharing it in a WhatsApp group.

A man has sued Bugema University, Luweero District, Kampala, for banning all female students from wearing dresses above the knee, jewelry, lipstick, sleeveless and open tops, coloured nails, trouser, within the school premises.
In the suit before the High Court, the petitioner, Mr Ronald Bwire, claims that on December 12, 2018, the University issued a notice banning female students from wearing miniskirts, ear rings, necklaces, bangles, sleeveless and open tops, coloured nails, lipsticks, trousers and dresses that stop above the knee.
Bugema University announced the ban in a notice dated December 12, 2018.
“No student should come back with the above mentioned next semester. Culprits will face university disciplinary committee for serious action,” the notice warns.
Mr Bwire says the ban is a violation of female students’ right to equality, dignity, freedom of expression, conscience and culture.
“The impugned notice is threat not only to constitutionalism and rule of law but also to Uganda’s efforts to respect, promote and uphold rights and status of women,” the suit reads in part.
Mr Bwire contends that besides causing distress, physiological torture and inconvenience, the University’s directive has lowered the dignity and status of women generally.
Through his lawyers Mayende & Associated Advocates, Mr Bwire wants court to order the lifting of the ban and compensation with costs of the suit
Ahmed Musa’s Mother is Dead. Sarah Moses, died today, Thursday 24th of January 2019. Her Death was announced by the footballer himself on his Twitter page just moments ago.
Sharing the sad news with his followers on the Micro-blogging platform, Musa wrote he was feeling very sad. He shared; “What a sad day of my life,just lose my mum ?????”
Sarah Moses single-handedly nurtured Ahmed and her other four daughters when her husband passed on 21 years ago.
In the year 2017, she graced the unveiling of the N500 million sports fitness centre in the ancient city of Kano built by her son, where she described Musa as a philanthropist who has touched so many lives with his wealth. She said back then;
“he has been the bread winner of the family and even our extended family members. He is taking good care of all of us.”
According to her, contrary to insinuations that Ahmed Musa hailed from Jos, Plateau state, the mum said, “he is actually from Maiduguri in Borno state. I am the second wife to the late father who died when Musa was seven years old.
“I am a Christian from Edo state and the father Musa was a Muslim—this is why I am bearing Moses. The father was a kind and caring man; a very generous man who took care of all his wives before he died. I am happy today to see my last born being celebrated by the small and mighty. So, I thank God for him and I am fulfilled.”

‘He has a winning mentality and he wants to be here be a part of what we are looking to achieve.’

Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu, confirmed this when he read President Buhari’s letter on the floor of the Senate during plenary.
The letter further noted that passing the bill on time would stabilise the economy as Nigerian workers have been looking towards solving the Labour crisis.
“Mr. Senate President, I hope if the bill is passed on time, it would stabilise the nation’s economy and avoid workers’ strike. ”
Recall that the National Council of State, a body of past and present leaders of Nigeria, approved the N27, 000 minimum wage at their meeting in the state house on Tuesday January 22nd.
Ex BBNaija housemate, Nina has decided to delved into the movie industry, as she is currently working on a new movie.
She stunned many of her followers moments back as she shared a snap of herself on a movie set with veteran actors, Maureen Okpoko and Yemi Blaq.
Sharing the photo on her Official Instagram Page, she wrote :
Good morning Fam I am Currently On The Movie Set Of #OLAEDO with Veteran Actors @Yemiblaq and @okpokomaureen . Produced By : @infinityebereohakwe Directed By : @Iykeodife_ #Anticipate #ComingSoon #AMustWatch #nollywood #OlaedoTheMovie #lifeOfAnActor #Ninarising ?❤️??
Nina Ivy Chinonso Onyenobi can confidently say the Big Brother Naija House was a platform that plummeted her brand into limelight as she has always been in the news she got in and out of the house.
She got a car gift from celebrity stylist, Toyin Lawani as her 22nd birthday gift. In the video which went viral, Toyin Lawani was seen presenting the car gift to Nina. The overjoyed reality show star was spotted screaming and so did the crowd in the background.
Though the relationship of the pair seems to have since hit the rocks.
In November 2018, her Instagram page was hacked and the hacker behind the act demanded N800,000 or he’d release her nude photos.
Though she was able to recover the account from the hacker days later. She wrote;
This account has been recovered by #TeamNina
Nina will be back with you shortly. Nobody can bully or beautiful Nina. We’ve got her back
Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Nollywood actress and voting member of the Oscars, says she’s is not so happy that no African movie made it to the 2019 Oscars nomination list.
The Nollywood star, who was enlisted into the voting membership of the Oscar Awards in 2018, made the disclosure in an Instagram post where she conveyed her thoughts on the nominated movies.
While she expressed her happiness on the fact that a great deal of the movies she voted were picked, the actor was concerned that no African movie made it to the list.
“So glad most of the movies I nominated made it,” she said.
“Wasn’t so excited no African movie made it!”
Omotola was, however, enthusiastic and convinced that the situation would change for the better in the coming years.
“Someday soon we will be doing this for Africans,” she added.
Jalade-Ekeinde isn’t the only Nigerian who was invited to join the Oscar awards voters in 2018. Femi Odugbemi, a filmmaker, was also invited.
‘The Favourite’ and ‘Roma’ were the most nominated movies, receiving 10 each, while ‘Black Panther’ earned seven nominations.
The national chairman of the party, Gani Galadima, said Ezekwesili only wanted to use the ACPN platform to negotiate to be finance minister.
He said;
“The reason for calling this press conference is to let the world know about the presidential aspiration of Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, which in actual fact, is not the truth. I have been put into confidence by one of her aide named Iyinoluwa Aboyeji that she only wanted to use the platform of the ACPN to negotiate to be Nigeria’s finance minister,”
“This she does not deem fit to inform the party whose mandate she is holding. If you observe, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili is the only presidential candidate who was so militant in her campaign without any tangible thing on ground to indicate any seriousness in the prosecution of her campaign.
“No campaign secretariat, billboard or great commitment on ground to indicate any seriousness. It is on this ground that the ACPN is withdrawing support for her presidential aspiration and endorsing the second term bid of President Muhammadu Buhari to take Nigeria to the next level.”
He also asked her to return to the party all the donations “from all over the world” because the party would have to account to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“We may take her to court. She was just using us to play,” he said.
A man has divorced his wife and he explained to BBC Hausa that he did so because she insists on voting for Buhari in the coming presidential election.
Abdullahi Yada’u, a resident of Kanam Local Government Area of Plateau State, told BBC Hausa Service on Thursday that he divorced his wife, Hafsat Suleiman, because she insisted on voting for Mr Buhari.
He tried convincing his wife not to vote for the incumbent president and when he didn’t succeed in convincing her, he divorced her.
Yada’u said he and his wife both supported president Buhari when he contested in the 2015 elections. But he feels disappointed with the administration and has decided not to vote for him again.
He narrated: “I told her that she must not vote for him but she insisted which led to a quarrel which attracted the attention of our neighbours, I slapped her and told her to choose between voting for Buhari and staying with me. She ran away.”
Later her parents called me and I narrated to them what transpired between us. But still my wife insisted on voting for Mr Buhari, that’s how I divorced her in the presence of her parents.
Ibrahim Suleiman, the divorced woman’s elder brother, said they felt disturbed over the incident between the couple. He added that the woman’s family would have dealt with the husband but their father stopped them.
He told BBC: “He really disgraced us. They have been having issues even in the previous election. She is the one that convinced him to vote for Buhari, now he insisted on voting for Mr Atiku Abubakar. We decided that we will not allow her to go back to him again.”
A shocking and disgusting video has emerged online showing the moment a pressed woman defecated in a home kitchen.
The 2-minute footage, obtained from CCTV cameras installed in a house, shows the woman, pick a plastic bag from scattered utensils in the sink which she later pooed in.
In the video, the woman believed to be the house-help, surveyed the kitchen for any installed camera before carrying out the act.
The maid later took the paper bag, which contained her faeces, and disposed it into a litter bin, which she had placed right next to her.
Some of the online users, who watched the video, condemned the woman’s unhygienic and disgusting act.
But others have argued that maybe the woman wasn’t allowed to make use of the toilet by the home owners after another video was shared of the maid easing herself in the same kitchen.
It is believed that the incident happened recently in Kenya.
