Ghanaian rapper Shatta Wale has proposed to his long time girlfriend and baby mama, Shatta Michy while performing on stage at his The Reign Concert.
The relationship between Shatta Wale and Michy seems to have traveled the next level, as last night 13th October at the Reign Concert, he surprised her with a marriage proposal.
The duo have been in the media several times over relationship problems, but the roller coaster seems to be on the high this time.
In front of the over 10,000-packed venue and their two kids – including their son, Majesty – Shatta Wale called out the name of the mother of his son and proposed to her.
In the middle of a joint performance of ‘Low Tempo’ a song by the couple, Shatta Wale went on his knees, pulled out a beautiful ring and proposed to his girlfriend, Michy.
Michy obviously could not hide her surprise and excitement on stage, as she accepted the proposal. Also on the stage was Majesty, the couple’s first and only child, as well as Shatta Wale’s older daughter.
After that surprise, the lovebirds shared a long passionate kiss on stage amidst loud cheers and chants from their teeming fans.
After the kiss, they performed ‘BulletProof’ together while intermittently holding hands.
It is however unclear when the two will officially walk down the aisle.

Drake appeared on LeBron James and Maverick Carter’s HBO series The Shop, and went into detail about how his beef with Kanye West this summer came to be. .
Drake said he confided in West about his son and plans to release the ‘Scorpion’ album while working with him during a recording session in Wyoming.
The rapper said West never informed him that he was working on an album even after he told him about his own project, only for the Chicago rapper to release ‘Ye’ weeks before ‘Scorpion’ was billed to come out.
“He sold me on this whole speech of like, ‘I’m in a great place, I’m making money, and I’m a father, and I wanna be Quincy Jones and help you,” Drake said.
“But in order to do that, you’ve gotta be transparent with me, you gotta play me your music, and you gotta tell me when you’re dropping. And I know you don’t like to do things like that.
I guess we all kind of felt a genuine vibe from it, so I play him my music and I told him when I was dropping. He played me Lift Yourself and he was like, “Yo, you can have this if you want.” And I was hyped. I started writing to it.
I went and ended up pretty much spending the majority of my time working on his music, just trying to like cook up ideas for him.”
The Canadian superstar said West instigated Pusha-T’s ‘The Story of Adidon’ diss track which exposed that he fathered a secret child with an adult film star.
“I’m in Wyoming. I play him ‘March 14.’ I send him a picture of my son. I tell him I’m having trouble with my son’s mother,” he said.
“We had a conversation. I wake up, and all these dates are out … Then the next two days, whatever, I wake up now to this text from him, passive like, ‘Yo, I love you brother’.
“Then, the first album drops. And, of course, there’s a diss song toward me that you produced, that’s talking about writing?. I was just there with you as friends helping you, and now you’re dissing me.
So I’m like, man, this is dark. I knew something was gonna come up about my kid. They had to add the deadbeat dad thing to make it more appealing.”
According to a report by PUNCH, Kizz Daniel and Reekado Banks are not on good terms.. Apaprently, the two have been nursing the rift lowkey, but it became public when Kizz Daniel refused to be involved in a song with Harrysong because Reekado was also featured on the track.
This was after he (Daniel) had recorded his verse on the song. Kizz went as far as requesting iTunes to take down the song after it was released and refusing to appear in the video.
When asked, Reekado feigned ignorance about the cause of the bad blood between them. But according to Sunday Scoop who claim to have information on the genesis of the fallout can be traced to the 2015 edition of the Headies Awards when Reekado Banks was adjudged as the Next Rated artiste for that edition.
Other artistes in that category included Lil Kesh, Kizz Daniel, Cynthia Morgan and Korede Bello.
Observers wouldn’t forget in a hurry how Don Jazzy and Olamide caused a scene during and after the event because Olamide felt his artiste, Lil Kesh, should have been the recipient of the award.
Though many don’t know this, Kizz Daniel also felt he should have won the award. According to a competent source close to Kizz, Daniel harboured a grudge because he felt he was good enough to have won the prize. He was further incensed by the fact that Reekado went about rubbing it in people’s faces that he was the deserving winner of the award.
“To be honest with you, Kizz felt snubbed that he didn’t get the award. He felt Lil Kesh and Reekado Banks were seen as the major contenders because of the support they got from their label bosses.
Several months later, he told those close to him that he didn’t like the way Reekado was going about, saying that he was better than other artistes in the Next Rated category. He has sworn not to work with Reekado Banks in the near future.
He believes that even without featuring many artistes, he has been able to carve a niche for himself in the industry; even better than others that were in that category with him,” the source said.
Meanwhile, it remains to be seen whether the two feuding parties would sheathe their swords anytime soon.
A Nigerian lady, Adufemi, has shared screenshots of the chat she had with a prospective male employer who offered her a job with one condition; that she must be coming to his house every weekend to spend time with him.
Follow their chats below, and tell us what you think:
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has issued a statement rejecting in its entirety the attempt by the ‘Buhari Presidency to foist a full-blown fascism on our country, beginning with the placement of illegal travel restrictions on Nigerians’.
The party said ‘this draconian step is clearly targeted at members of the opposition parties, perceived political enemies of President Muhammadu Buhari, well-meaning Nigerians, including members of the business community, religious leaders, former political leaders and traditional rulers, who are perceived to be averse to President Buhari’s re-election bid’.
The PDP further notes that this “decree” is a direct clampdown on our democratic order and an overthrow of rights of our citizenry as guaranteed by the 1999 Constitution (as amended). We hope this is not a ploy to harm certain eminent Nigerians on the claims of resisting travel restrictions.
The whole world can now see how fascism is fast taking over our democracy and judicial system and how the Buhari administration, by fiat, has directly ordered that citizens be secretly trailed, their movements and financial transactions restricted by government agencies, without recourse to due process of the law.
While the PDP notes that the Buhari Presidency has gone into panic mode since the popular emergence of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar as PDP Presidential candidate and the spontaneous jubilation his emergence has evoked across the country, the party maintains that the resort to total clamp down on the opposition and our supporters will be totally unacceptable.
What this means is that all Nigerians, particularly, opposition members, members of the business community and religious leaders, have become endangered and stand the risk of state violence under the All Progressives Congress (APC) administration.
The PDP therefore alerts the international community to hold the Buhari Presidency responsible should any harm befall any opposition leader, key members of the business community and religious leaders across the country as we march towards the 2019 general elections.
Finally, the repositioned PDP invites all to note how the APC and the Buhari Presidency are pushing our nation to the brinks but restates that no amount of intimidation, harassment and foisting of fascism will deter Nigerians from their determination to rally on the platform of the PDP to oust the incompetent, anti-people and repressive APC administration, come 2019.
The management team of popular artiste, Temitope Adekunle, aka Small Doctor, has reacted to a viral video where the singer told President Muhammadu Buhari to stop sleeping.
During the recent All Progressives Congress convention in Abuja, Small Doctor was invited to perform and while on stage, he said, “Buhari, ye ma sun (Buhari, stop sleeping).”
A member of the singer’s management team, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Sunday Scoop that Small Doctor was not worried when he saw the video, as he knew it was not politically motivated. The insider explained, “Small Doctor didn’t do anything unusual while performing at the event. He was there to entertain everyone, which he did. It was not the first time he would be performing the song and we have the video of the event on our devices too. The reaction of President Buhari when he was performing was different from what people saw in the video. They must have edited it.”
The source also revealed that Small Doctor was hailed by all the delegates present at the convention after the performance. The source stated, “After Small Doctor performed, everyone enjoyed it and he went to greet some of the delegates, including governors and senators. He couldn’t have greeted Buhari because he was far from him. You can tell that the video was politically masterminded.
“When the video first came out, people were saying Buhari was not dancing to the performance. Suddenly, they changed the conversation and said Small Doctor called out Buhari. He didn’t call out anyone; he was there to entertain and not to abuse anyone.
“The people that invited us understand that he is an entertainer. Since they didn’t see it as a problem, we didn’t see the need to respond to the report or claim. If Small Doctor had come out to react to it, it would mean he did something bad. When he (Davido) called him a legend for telling Buhari to stop sleeping, we understood what was happening.”
Meanwhile, In related news, A young man who in an effort to meet up with the standards of life has been caught on camera stealing a brand new Macbook worth N700k at Emab Plaza at Wuse, Abuja.
The company cried on social media, promising to reward anyone with useful information to track him.
However he has been caught, and his name is Victory Ene, known for showing off on his IG page. In the CCTV cam, he could be seen putting the Macbook away in his red bag while consciously looking around to avoid being caught.
President Muhammadu Buhari has banned 50 prominent Nigerians suspected of engaging in corruption from travelling abroad.
The individuals, whose identities were not disclosed, include those whose assets, valued at N50million and above, are subject of corruption investigation and litigation.
The statement by presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, said the measure is part of the implementation of Executive Order Number 6 which seeks to ensure “that all assets within a minimum value of N50 million or equivalent, subject to investigation or litigation are protected from dissipation by employing all available lawful means, pending the final determination of any corruption-related matter.”
Read the statement in full below;
PRESIDENT BUHARI DIRECTS IMPLEMENTATION OF EO 6 IN FULL FORCE
Following the instant judicial affirmation of the constitutionality and legality of the Executive Order 6 (EO6), President Muhammadu Buhari has mandated the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Minister of Justice to implement the Order in full force.
To this end, a number of enforcement procedures are currently in place by which the Nigeria Immigration Service and other security agencies have placed no fewer than 50 high profile persons directly affected by EO6 on watch-list and restricted them from leaving the county pending the determination of their cases.
Also, the financial transactions of these persons of interest are being monitored by the relevant agencies to ensure that the assets are not dissipated and such persons do not interfere with, nor howsoever corrupt the investigation and litigation processes.
It is instructive to note that EO6 was specifically directed to relevant law enforcement agencies to ensure that all assets within a minimum value of N50 million or equivalent, subject to investigation or litigation are protected from dissipation by employing all available lawful means, pending the final determination of any corruption-related matter.
The Buhari administration reassures all well-meaning and patriotic Nigerians of its commitment to the fight against corruption, in accordance with the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and the general principles of the Rule of Law.
Accordingly, this administration will uphold the rule of law in all its actions and the right of citizens would be protected as guaranteed by the Constitution.
We, therefore, enjoin all Nigerians to cooperate with the law enforcement authorities towards ensuring a successful implementation of the Executive Order 6 which is a paradigm-changing policy of the Federal Government in the fight against corruption.

Singer, Oluwatosin Oluwole Ajibade popularly known as Mr. Eazi has declared that he’s in no way ashamed to declare his love publicly for his billionaire daughter girlfriend.
While speaking with Sunday Scoop, Eazi reacted to a question on the true status of his relationship with Temi, he stated:
“I don’t think there is anything hidden about it. Temi is my one and only girlfriend.”
Given a chance to choose, he said he would love to spend more time in Nigeria with his family and loved ones. But, according to him, it is impossible, as he has fans all around the world.
Mr. Eazi said:
“I am faced with a blessing and curse. The fact that I make music that people all over the world listen to is a blessing. But the implication is that once people around the world listen to your music, it means you don’t have one constituency any longer.
At present, I try to relate to my Nigerian, African and Diaspora fans and then to my new fans that are non-Africans. Also, people shouldn’t forget that I am just one man; so, I cannot be in many places at the same time. But I make sure that once I have an opportunity, I come to Nigeria to do one thing or the other. Trust me, it is not my joy that I cannot be in Nigeria where my family lives.”
‘Wetin we gain’ singer, Victor AD who was recently robbed, had a chat with Sunday Scoop, and he’s debunked insinuations that his song, which glorified money-making, probably propelled the attackers into wanting to make money at all costs.
He said:
“It was not something that I have been through before; that was my first time of being robbed. It wasn’t a palatable experience but I give God all the glory. It has nothing to do with my song. At the end of the day, everybody wants to make money. As long as we are here on earth, our main focus is to make money; after serving God. Nobody wants to be broke. Before I sang the song, armed robbers were in existence.”
On the inspiration behind the song, the singer said:
“It was like a motivation to hustlers who have been working for a long time but have yet to make it big. It was also based on a personal experience; so it was more like a conversation between me and God. If you listen closely to the lyrics of the song, you will realise that I was just trying to motivate people.”
He stated that he wasn’t expecting to become as big as it currently is:
“I never expected it to be this big so soon. I thought it would only be big in the southern part of the country because it was actually the first music video I’ve shot. I didn’t even do a lot of promotional activities for it before the song went viral. The song is actually my sixth single. Some of my earlier songs are Jowo, Body go tell you, Bigger You, among others,” he said.
Relationship expert, Ndijeka Nwapa-Ibuaka has shared the story of a married woman who’s in a dilemme after she revealed that she had a one night stand out of her marriage.
According to the story shared, the woman apparently, got pregnant with the stranger’s baby, despite not being able to bear a child with her husband for 5 years.
The obviously disturbed woman sent in her story to Ndijeka and wanted to know if it was okay to inform her fling, since her husband seems not to be interested in the marriage anymore.
Read her story below:
Dear NjiGirl,
Please, let me know what I can do in this situation. I have been married for five years and tried to conceive but nothing has worked. I met a young handsome guy in the mall and we hit it off. The day we made love, I took in and I am now six months gone. My husband refused to do anything for my unborn and throughout the pregnancy.
We separated for a while but once I had the baby, he came back saying he can’t live without me. I took him back on condition he would love my child. He did but only for a short while. He started looking for every chance to quarrel. I can’t take it anymore. I am about to move out.
My baby’s father is married so I never told him about the child. I feel like I should let my baby’s father and his family know about my baby, who is now one year old. What should I do?

French Ligue 1 side, Monaco have appointed Arsenal legend Thierry Henry, as their new manager, on a Three-Year Contract.
Henry will take his first steps into management at the club where he began his professional career, and has signed a three-year contract.
The Frenchman obviously went on to greater heights, joining Juventus, then the Gunners and then Barcelona, but he spent six years with the Principality club and is delighted to be making a return.
“In the first place, I thank AS Monaco for giving me the opportunity to coach the team of this club which is so special to me,” Henry said following his appointment.
“I am very happy to come back to AS Monaco and extremely determined to meet the challenges ahead. I can not wait to meet the players to start working together.”
Henry had worked alongside former Everton boss Roberto Martinez in the Belgium set-up, and helped the side to a third-placed finish at the World Cup in Russia.
Vadim Vasilyev, Monaco’s vice president, has already waxed lyrical about the appointment, made after the sacking of Leonardo Jardim earlier this week.
“His knowledge of football, his passion for the game, his high standards and his commitment to our colours make his nomination a reality,” he said.
“Thierry is both aware of the task ahead and eager to start his new job. He can count on our trust and all our support to bring a new dynamic to the team and carry out the mission.”
Indeed, Henry’s task is a difficult one as he is charged with turning around the form of a side which have picked up only six points from nine Ligue 1 matches this season.
While it’s true that Monaco won the French title a mere 17 months ago, a mass of sales including Kylian Mbappe, Thomas Lemar, Fabinho, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Bernardo Silva has drastically reduced the quality of the squad.
Currently 18th in Ligue 1, Monaco return to action on October 20 with a trip to Strasbourg.
An Abuja based makeup artist, Ufeli Mariam transformed a groundnut seller to a beautiful Lady… Check out the electrifying transformation below:
As shared by Ufeli Mariam;
I was walking down to the store on the ground floor at my new plaza in Garki II to get a bottle of water, and I saw this young girl hawking grand nut. She brought her tray down to sell.
I walked pass her just when she was raising her head up to talk to her customers and boom , something caught my attention!
Her EYES SHE HAS THE MOST ELECTRIFYING EYES!
The kind that can catch anyone’s attention and HOLD it down.
I mean, her � � are CATHCY, PUNCHY AND GORGEOUS.
I reversed immediately (like what did I just see?) I wanted to be sure of what I saw.
I looked again, and there they were, very gorgeous adorable beautiful eyes.
I told her to please come up to my studio space once she was done with the people she was attending to.
As the curious kitty that I am, I needed to know this girl, where is she from, like her origin. Is she mixed? Or…? I also felt sad that those beautiful eyes be hawking � on the streets. I suddenly felt scared too, I prayed and hoped she wasn’t being taken advantage of by men.
I told my co – workers that I would like to have her stay with me, so I can protect her and help her the little way I could. And they all said, “ ha! Slow down, do you know her well enough to bring her to your home? ….” One particular thing intrigued me about this beauty, She is has a hustling spirit. I thought to makeup her up and pop those eyes, I told her if she would want that and she said yes.
But, her business is very important to her oh. We set dates many times but she never shows up, when I finally saw her and asked why she didn’t come by again, she said she wasn’t able to finish selling her grandnut that day.
I was impressed by this. She’s not lazy and not easily carried away.
I told @peterusmanphoto about her and he said to bring her for a shoot. But she was difficult to get hold of, as she had no phone I could reach her on.
I only get to see her whenever i see her passing by. Lol

The budding entrepreneur (debbiebarbieskincare), took to Instagram to share her story after acquiring herself a new car.
Read her story below;
Have come to realize life is a journey which everyone must go through everyday to become the best version of who we are. I realized that pain changes everything in our life. At times God use pain to get our attention.
God used pain to remold me. My life journey started experiencing real changes in 2016 when someone I loved n dated for like 4years went on to have an introduction with someone else without breaking up with me. Story for another day… I felt so bitter n angry with life etc, I felt heavy burden on my mind. Bcoz I was holding on to the pain. Then I came across a post online saying “forgiveness is like setting someone free and realizing that person is you”.
At first I was lost cos I didn’t get the message at all then I took my time to understand it then I discover that was angry n hard on myself. So I decided to write down things I’m angry about n also write things I achieved to be a happy pretty girl. I noticed I was angry about four things n I discovered I want a lot of positive things, so I decide to channel all my energy into things I want instead of things I can’t change.
The first on my list*
I want to b an Entrepreneur
I want to be to beautiful
I want to be happy
I want to live life etc
My list might look simple but it wasn’t easy to get any. I’m not there yet but I’m not where I was yesterday. In life change is a constant thing n we are all capable of. I’m glad my Ex left me cause I won’t have discovered the me I’m so much in love with right now. Key words don’t b stock in that dark corner. We don’t all have it figured out but I’m enjoying the process.
The Director General of the Atiku Abubakar Presidential Campaign Organisation, Otunba Gbenga Daniel yesterday revealed why former Anambra State governor, Mr. Peter Obi, was picked as the running mate to the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar.
In a statement last night, Daniel said Mr. Obi’s choice was largely influenced by his youthfulness, vast knowledge of global and local economics as well as being a financial expert, all experience which Nigeria is in great need of at this point in time.
“This ticket will be able to steer our nation back on the path of progress, economic prosperity and unity,” Daniel said.
In line with its pre-primary election zoning formula, Atiku yesterday picked ex-Governor Peter Obi as his running mate for the 2019 presidential election.
With the development, the party has returned to the winning formula of the defunct National Party of Nigeria from 1979 to 1983 in which ex-President Shehu Shagari paired with the late former Vice President Alex Ekwueme.
PDP’s zoning of the VP slot to the South East was allegedly designed to woo the Igbo who had been complaining of marginalization.
Since the conclusion of PDP presidential primaries, party leaders have narrowed the choice of vice presidential candidate to the South-West and the South-East.
But Atiku and the party leadership have opted for the South-East in order to address “the marginalization of the zone.”
Already, the PDP has given a copy of the nomination form to Obi to fill with the ex-governor having audience with Atiku at about 5 pm yesterday.
It was also gathered that a South-South governor may be appointed as the Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Organisation of the PDP.
Investigation conducted by our correspondent revealed that the PDP leadership had presented some guidelines to Atiku on how to pick his running mate.
A top source said: “Earlier on Monday, the PDP presented guidelines to Atiku and eventually, it was agreed that ex-Governor Peter Obi fits into the criteria set out.
“The concession of the slot to the South-East was also in line with the wish of Atiku.
“In its power sharing formula, the PDP had conceded the VP slot to the South-East and reneging on the agreement would have been fatal for the party in 2019.
“Apart from being a prudent leader, Obi has rich experience in the private and public sectors which will help him manage the nation’s economy as the Chairman of the National Economic Council (NEC).
“The banking sector, which is the mainstay of the nation’s economy, will have a new lease of life with Obi in charge.
“More importantly, the marginalization of the Igbo was one of the issues which PDP had promised to address.
“Since Ekwueme lost the presidential primaries to ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo, the Igbo have not had a fair share of power at the centre.”
Responding to a question, the source added: “The nomination of Obi will foster the nation’s unity and create a sense of belonging for all tribes.
“It is like a return to the winning formula of the defunct National Party of Nigeria (NPN) between 1979 and 1983. The ultimate objective of PDP is the preservation of the nation’s unity.
“More permutations by the PDP will emerge in the next few weeks. We want to make the election of the PDP a fait accompli with interplay of dynamics.”
At press time, it was gathered that a South-South governor could be appointed as the Director-General of the Presidential Campaign Organization of PDP for 2019 poll.
It was learnt that the said governor is on the verge of completing his second term, a development which has narrowed the choice to Governor Henry Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State.
But consultations were still ongoing last night on the campaign structure.
A reliable source said: “The thinking in PDP over the DG of the 2019 campaign is to pick a governor from the South-South who is almost completing his second term.
“The idea of the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki being the DG is out of place because he leads the National Assembly, which is a strategic arm of government. He has a lot at hand; we do not want to distract him or any of the serving governors.
“I think the DG might be a PDP governor who is almost completing his second term in office.”
Although the source was not forthcoming, it was learnt that the Governor of Bayelsa State, Henry Seriake Dickson, might be appointed the DG.
“Dickson played a key role in mobilising support and perfecting strategies which earned Atiku the presidential mandate, “ a member of the National Working Committee of PDP added.
