Singer, Burna Boy has been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly sending armed men to attack his colleague, Mr. 2kay at Eko Hotels and Suites.
The Command’s spokesperson, SP Chike Oti, in a statement said the ‘Soke’ crooner was “subsequently arrested, interrogated and detained and is expected to be charged to court on Monday alongside four of members of the gang earlier arrested”.
Commissioner of Police, Mr. Imohimi Edgal, after the interrogation, said the State Police Command has zero tolerance for all forms of crime and would not hesitate to prosecute anyone found culpable in any criminal offence perpetrated in the State.
“There would be no sacred cows. This Command is poised to ensure that every resident can feel safe wherever they are and carry out their businesses without fear or favour. Anyone, therefore, found to be involved in this case would be made to face the law to clear his or her name or face prosecution,” the statement quoted Imohimi as saying.
The pop musician, who was declared wanted by the Lagos Police Command in connection with the robbery attack on another popular musician, Mr. 2kay at Eko Hotel and Suites early last month, reported to the Command headquarters in Ikeja at about 5pm.
Tunmise Omotore, gang leader of the suspected robbers, had confessed on how they disguised as room service to rob Mr. 2kay at Eko Hotel and Suites on the instruction of Burba Boy’s Road Manager, Joel Kantiock.
The Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari has challenged women and youths in Bauchi State to strive hard to acquire knowledge so that they can benefit from opportunities that may come their way.
She stated this at the closing ceremony of the Skills Acquisition and Empowerment Training Programme initiated and sponsored by her pet project, Future Assured, which took place on Thursday at the Multipurpose Indoor Sports Hall, in Bauchi.
According to her, since most things are becoming digitalised, there is the need for the women and youths to be literate if they must benefit from various opportunities.
The President’s wife cited herself as an example to encourage women and children, pointing out to them that it was after her marriage that she went back to school.
She said:
“You know, when I got married, I just finished my secondary school education. I didn’t think my husband will be President again, but I still continued with my education and this is where God has brought me to today.
“I want to call on our people with a strong voice, education has become a compulsory thing that we must acquire.
“We must understand English and know how to speak it so that when any intervention comes, we will benefit from it. So, please, for God’s sake, people should continue to go to school even if you will not work in an office and earn money, but, so that, when opportunities come up tomorrow, you will not be left out.
“So, nobody should relent or give up in going to school to acquire knowledge. We should keep reading and schooling for the benefit of the society.”

The actress come from the United Kingdom to Nigeria every year to celebrate her birthday with the needy and the orphanages through her foundation, Princess Royal Foundation.
While visiting the home of the needy at Modupe Cole, Yaba, she was greatly celebrated by the less privileged who chanted her a happy birthday song, while she was also appreciated by the management of the orphanage centre.
Looks like Nigerian actress Caroline Danjuma and her billionaire ex-husband, Musa Danjuma seems to be friendly exes.
The beautiful actress took to her Instagram page this morning to pour encomium on her Ex-husband even though it’s not his birthday.
She shared a photo of herself alongside Musa and appreciated him for being the best father to their children.
She wrote:
“Today I will take out time to celebrate this man right here .. I choose to see the beautiful in everything , the positive in negative . To the best father in the world , my closest friend and our backbone for 11 years .. thank you for giving the kids the best of life , for always being there , I will always appreciate you and respect you .

All hail the man who goes an extra mile for his children ??????.. #nothisbirthday #appreciationday”
A young man and a lady believed to be newlyweds, caused quite a stir recently in Lagos when they were spotted doing something unusual yet unique on their special day.
The couple were pictured skating to where is believed to be their reception venue.
Well, I wanna take a quick guess on this – Are they trying to avoid an heated traffic? or probably trying to start off their honeymoon ASAP?….
Another day on social media…Another weird fan requesting for the unthinkable!…Nonetheless, it remains a clap-back season for our Nigerian celebs.
Nollywood actress, Onyi Alex yesterday shared a throwback photo of herself on her Instagram page without makeup and her fans responded in the comment with compliments of her beauty.
However, a male fan, who by the way is definitely someone’s son and possibly somebody’s boyfriend, husband or dad, made a ‘naughty comment’ and it was: “I don’t mind drinking your pee”
But the actress who’s got no chills asked the follower to see a doctor and as well change his Instagram username.
These cleavage-baring photos of Media Personality Toke Makinwa has since caused a stir among her followers on social media.
The beautiful author took to her Instagram page to share the pictures from the Ciroc photoshoot but her followers and fans have reacted negatively to the photos as they believe its not right for her to wear such outfit.
A follower even mocked her saying; “see wetin baba fadeyi dey enjoy.”
Recall, Toke Makinwa was reportedly accused of dating 70 year old billionaire, Mr Festus Fadeyi.
At first, their fears were deemed unfounded by family friends, close and distant relatives, but ever since their father completed his sprawling mansion in Ikoyi, the children have become very worried about the possibility of seeing Toke hop in the master bedroom with their father.
Fadeyi’s children are very angry with the way he splurges on his love interest, Toke. They believe he is squandering too much money on her at a time he is heavily indebted to Skye Bank.
Recall that the well-heeled founder and CEO of Pan Ocean Corporation, an indigenous independent oil firm, acquired a multi-billion naira loan from Skye Bank. His indebtedness to the bank is estimated at N196 billion few months ago.
Notwithstanding, Fadeyi spends extravagantly on Toke. For instance, he allegedly bought her a brand new Range Rover 2016 model worth over N50 million. He is also responsible for her acquisition of top of the line and very expensive designer bags, shoes and apparels. From Louboutin, Bottega, Chanel, Louis Vuitton to Hermes among others, Fadeyi spoils Toke silly with the most pricey ware.
Thus the world’s most expensive designer brands are mere names on Toke’s list. The popular social media big girl considers Selfridges and Harrods as ordinary shopping points at the moment,. Whenever she visits London, United Kingdom (UK) via business class or first class flights paid for by Fadeyi, she spares no expenses at the city’s posh shopping points.
It is very interesting to note that Fadeyi foots such outrageous bills for Toke while he wallows in loan debt to his bank. What Fadeyi’s children find alarming however, is Toke’s continual neglect of her lover’s precarious financial situation.
Consequently, they have declared war against her, warning her to leave their father alone. Frightened by the undisguised animosity, Toke has resorted to extreme measures to avoid their wrath or unpalatable encounters with them. For instance, she now tries to steal around town incognito by covering her vehicle’s number plate with leather.
Although the “On becoming” author has not come out to debunk these rumors.

The contract saga between award-winning singer, Kiss Daniel and his former record label, G-worldwide is not nearly over.
Recall, it was reported how Kiss Daniel earned 30k monthly salary for a long time and how he legally terminated his contract a few months back.
In case you missed it, the label stated that the singer is in breach of contract and is evading court papers, his legal team, L&A Associates then released an exhaustive statement detailing Daniel’s dealings with the label, the unfair treatment of their client and more.
G-Worldwide Entertainment Ltd had dragged Kiss Daniel to court for “taking steps to appoint a new manager, solicit for bookings, and has continued to negotiate and enter performance agreements in respect of the songs from the album “New Era,” and “Evolution” which is set to be released soon.”
In the statement released by Kiss Daniel’s lawyers, they said he only terminated the contract as he was permitted to do under the contract.
The contract was drafted by G-Worldwide, the lawyers wrote, and they inserted a termination clause in the contract, which Kiss Daniel activated.
Now, LIB has revealed in new investigation into the on-going saga between Nigerian pop star, Kiss Daniel and his former label, G-Worldwide as the label finally opened to react to recent reports from the singer’s camp.
Below is a detailed reaction from the Emperor Geezy led G-Worldwide records on the Kiss Daniel issue as reported by LIB;
There has been a lot of misinformation in the media as to the background of Kiss Daniel’s wrongful exit from G-Worldwide Entertainment; firstly the management of G-Worldwide Entertainment wishes to state it had never been its intention to seek legal redress, nor join issues with an artist who we fear is being given bad legal advice. However, we feel it is important that we set the records straight for the benefit of the general public and others who are interested in knowing the truth.
We would like to reiterate that our organization’s sole mission is to scout, develop and promote artists till the point where both partners become profitable and the artiste can then decide to continue their creative journey as they deem fit. Contrary to widespread insinuations (and though we love a good joke) we are not a slave camp and we have no time whatsoever held any of the talents on our roster against their will.
The issue of restrictions on collaboration by our artists is one which has been well flogged and one we will address immediately – our management policy is unique in that we look for innovative ways to position our artists to build and own their sound and brands before seeking to collaborate with artists from other labels.
To make this work, we train and develop our artists in a way that ensures that their first albums are well composed and delivered in a way that gives them the platform to sell their art as strong individual brands. This strategy is not without its results as is evident from Kiss Daniel’s debut album “New Era” receiving many positive reviews and landing the 8th place on the Billboard’s World Album Chart within a week of release.
The Nigerian music industry is very competitive, and as such, it is pertinent that players in the market develop unique strategies to break in and remain relevant.
The New Era album of Kiss Daniel therefore only contained collaborative efforts with his label mate Sugarboy. However, on the soon to be released album ‘Evolution’ by Kiss Daniel, we have worked with other talents such as Phyno and Olamide. Sugarboy has also collaborated with Y-Cee on a song due to be released in January 2018.
There have also been issues raised that the company has not made available its books of accounts to Kiss Daniel, leading to him filing an action at the Lagos State High Court seeking an order granting him access to the books of the company.
Whilst our lawyers have filed the necessary papers to strike out the suit, it is pertinent that we briefly note that at no time have we denied the artiste or his lawyers access to our books. With the facts we have, it is our belief that the suit is a ploy to misdirect the public away from his untimely and unlawful exit from the company.
The label has records of email correspondence with Kiss Daniel where he and his representatives at different times requested for books of the company and same were supplied to them.
All these have been placed before the court in response to the suit filed by the artist at the Lagos State High Court. Until now neither he nor his representatives have responded to papers filed challenging the competence of that suit. Sadly too, even though Kiss complained about access, in another breath he has admitted the audits held by his accountants and the label’s accountant.
Apart from the above, there have been rumours that Kiss Daniel has been on a monthly stipend of NGN 50,000 (Another great joke if we ever heard one). It is a known fact that such amounts will be insufficient to find and retain a decent apartment in Lagos nor cater for the lifestyle of any Nigerian celebrity.
Kiss Daniel, contrary to that rumour, has received substantial allowances over the last two and half years. In 2013, he was offered a 360 deal, and the terms of the initial contract have been reviewed twice in his favour, whilst the company has had to bankroll obligations relating to advertising, promotions, music production, videos, trips, wardrobe etc. at different times.
Indeed, the company has been quite flexible with our remuneration policies with the belief that he will be able to build a solid financial base for himself. For the avoidance of doubt the following are some details of how the label catered for his financial needs as well as his personal welfare:
1. Contrary to rumours making the rounds that Kiss Daniel was only on NGN 30,000 salary since he joined the label up until after the release of the Woju and Laye singles, this is nothing but falsehood. Before the release of those singles in 2014, Kiss Daniel was being paid a monthly allowance of NGN 30,000 to cover basic personal costs whilst he was still in his father’s house in Kuto, Abeokuta, he was also given a medical allowance of NGN 150,000 and other unrecorded stipends whilst no revenue was being generated by him. This remained the norm while the label invested heavily in recording sessions, productions, transportation, and other costs associated with developing him as an artist.
2. Loans of up to NGN 550,000 were given to him within 2 weeks of his signing onto the label for him to get a car for his mom to start a Taxi business. There are documents to back this. In addition following his request for financial support for his dad’s burial, G-Worldwide released the sum of NGN 200,000 to him which was exactly what Kiss Daniel requested for. As recent as October 2017, he again requested for a loan to run his account in order to acquire a house for himself under a mortgage, to this end the company released NGN 13,000,000 (Thirteen Million Naira) to him though the company was not obligated under the contract to do so.
3. As per the contract between Kiss Daniel and G-Worldwide, the label was meant to recoup its investment before any royalty-sharing was to commence; the only provision available for the artiste was allowances and loans which would be at the discretion of the label. In June 2015 following his return from his UK tour, the company amended the contract and immediately began the payment of royalties as agreed and from that time till the wrongful termination of his contract. G-Worldwide has paid Kiss Daniel the sum of NGN 117,233,318 (One Hundred and Seventeen Million, Two Hundred Thirty-Three Thousand and Three Hundred and Eighteen Naira) as royalties from performances alone, he has also received money from other incomes to the sum of NGN 3,296,826.40 (Three Million, Two Hundred and Ninety Six Thousand Eight Hundred and Twenty Six Naira and forty kobo) for the financial record of 2016 as opposed to the false allegations made by him and his lawyers (The company’s books of account support this) As it stands, Kiss Daniel owes G-Worldwide Entertainment quite a large sum of money for the financial year due to end in 2018.
4. Following the signing of the contract in 2013, Kiss Daniel moved into an apartment furnished by the label in April 2014 in Lekki Lagos and only moved out in October 2015. Despite the terrible picture painted by Kiss Daniel to the media, the label actually during that period undertook the payment of all the bills in the said apartment, including waste, power, service charges, feeding, etc.
5. We have also noted the falsehood that at the time of his father’s demise, the label barred him from attending the burial. Let it be on record that immediately the news of his father’s demise filtered in, Emperor Geezy, CEO of the label authorized that his own personal car is used to convey Kiss Daniel to Abeokuta to attend and be a part of his father’s burial. The label CEO’s brother even accompanied him on this trip, as well as one of the label’s staff. Interestingly on arriving at a hotel in Abeokuta which had been fully paid for by the label, he refused to attend his own father’s burial on the grounds that he believed that his family are fetish and were responsible for his father’s death.
6. In response to the claim that Kiss Daniel was barred from supporting other artists, especially those who supported him and the label at the New Era album launch, we would like to put it on record that at no time has the label barred him from performing at events where friends in the industry have asked for his support. We understand the importance of collaborative efforts in a fledgling industry such as ours. Kiss Daniel, however, has made it a habit to turn up at events late or not at all, always blaming the label for his truancy. Clear examples include his failure to appear at the Reekado Banks album listening party at Hard Rock Café and the recent 2Baba Buckwyld ‘n’ Breathless Concert on 22nd of October, 2017 at Eko Hotel. He did this even when 2Baba had provided two separate accommodations for him and his manager Louiza Williams at Eko Hotels, and the label had covered other logistics costs. He stood up 2Baba and manager after claiming he was on his way from 6pm till 1am the next day. He repeated the same show of shame at the Chronicles of Ushebebe and Soundcity’s 2016 MVP Awards. His excuse always being that the label has restricted him from supporting other talents in the industry. His favourite saying: “You know I’m signed to a label na, I’m not my own boss yet”. One should wonder why his manager would be at these venues to liaise with the event organizers before his arrival if he wasn’t approved by the label to be at those events. His usual play was to ask the manager if money is involved and once she says “no we are going to support” he will either not take his calls once she’s around his house for takeoff, or switch off his phones and later complain that he was not feeling too well or had an urgent meeting at Abeokuta.
Emperor Geezy
Last year, many people wondered how we managed to pull off such a massive concert for his New Era album launch with no support from any organization. That event which included the lease of the prestigious Eko Hotels with over 20 superstars was one of the most expensive projects the company ever embarked upon.
Nevertheless, we understand that artists grow with their songs and popularity, and may eventually seek an early exit. That being said, a contract between two parties is a legally binding arrangement and both parties having deployed resources to perform obligations thereunder must ensure that the contract is executed or terminated in line with its terms and conditions.
G-Worldwide’s contract with Kiss Daniel simply put, allows for the artiste to exit, but in so doing, he is duty bound to repay to the company all monies expended by the company in furtherance of the contract and all losses; including losses suffered from the cancellation of fixed events and shows by reason of the termination. The contract is also expressly clear on the fact that intellectual property rights to all the songs produced under the contract including the stage name of the artiste are properties of the company. We know that so far, Kiss Daniel has kept these facts away from the public; choosing to resort to cheap blackmail and whipping up emotions. We will not take this route as a responsible company and this is why we are in court.
We have done our best not to harp on the history of his recalcitrance. Nevertheless, we are harassed by different lawyers (his present lawyer is the fourth) with outrageous demands, but we have retained the opinion that some terms cannot be imposed on us. Most recently in October, he demanded going forward, 100% of revenues from his performances and endorsements even while he understands his level of indebtedness to us and the terms of the contracts. When he was referred to the contract terms, his response was to serve us a termination notice without even following the stipulations for termination under the contract. He thereafter announced his personal record label in less than nine (9) days after the undue notice and has since been soliciting bookings and infringing on G-Worldwide intellectual property rights by performing songs from the ‘New Era’ album and the yet to be released ‘Evolution’ album. This is the reason for the Federal High Court order of the 30th November 2017 stating that “both parties are ordered to maintain status quo ante bellum under the recording contract pending the hearing of the motion on notice.”
Law abiding organizations and business concerns have either contacted us for clarity, which we have provided through our solicitors, Calmhill Partners. Other well advised entities have in support of the rule of law and sanctity of contracts, terminated their engagements with him or removed him from performance schedules. The Nigerian musical industry we believe will learn and grow from this incidence.
We have put everyone who wishes to contract Kiss Daniel on notice and advise that you should not allow yourselves be misinformed about the subject matter or be swayed by his misrepresentations or lack of capacity to perform some of the songs that he has been contracted to perform. Whilst we look forward to a speedy dispensation of justice in the matter before the Court, we reiterate our advice that event organizers should consult their lawyers to avoid being complicit in the offence of acting in contempt of court.
It remains illegal to deal with Kiss Daniel directly instead of G-Worldwide Management pending the hearing of the suit in Court.

20-year-old Thabiso Chabalala on Wednesday, revealed to the court that she spent seven months coughing and with swollen eyes after Prophet Lethebo Rabalago sprayed her with insecticide.
Prophet Rabalago from the Mountzion General Assembly in Limpopo, South Africa, who has styled himself as a prophet, was charged with five counts of assault and contravening environmental laws after images of him spraying congregants with Doom went viral in November last year.
Chabalala (pictured) testified in the ongoing trial against Lethebo Rabalago at the Mookgophong Magistrates Court on Wednesday.
This is Rabalago’s second legal battle after the provincial health department obtained an interdict in the Limpopo High Court against him in May.
Chabalala told the court that she regretted allowing Rabalago to spray the pesticide on her. She said she responded to calls for the sick to come forward during a church service at Phomolong township last year.
Presiding magistrate Frans Mahodi asked Chabalala how she felt when she saw Rabalago holding the insecticide can.
“I was taken by surprise. I thought that was how God instructed him to conduct the healing,” she responded.
Chabalala said she was sprayed with Doom twice on the same day and became dizzy. She said at first she thought the dizziness was part of the healing process, but she started experiencing health problems later on.
“I regret it,” she said.
The state had also called a Grade 11 pupil who claimed he had to get help from a clinic after Rabalago sprayed him.
The 17-year-old said he had gone to the church to seek prayers because his neck was painful. Rabalago’s defence lawyer, Edmond Lubisi, said his client had never met the teenager.
“It is my client’s version that he does not know you or remember seeing you at his church,” Lubisi said.
Earlier, Catherine Mabitsela, a legislation chief inspector at the provincial department of agriculture, testified that Rabalago’s practices were misleading.
Mabitsela said Rabalago had not used the product according to regulations.
In an interview with eNCA.com last November, Rabalago claims that the insect killer is to heal people with cancer, HIV or any other illness.
On whether he considers the danger of the chemical spray to the eyes and other body parts, he said:
“With us, we believe in God is for all things. People are getting their deliverance.”
Justice Yusuf Halilu of the Federal High Court, Abuja has denied Maryam Sanda, the woman who allegedly killed her husband, Bilyaminu Bello, bail. Maryam, her mum Maimuna Sanda, her brother and one other person, were arraigned before the court today.
Delivering judgment on her bail application, Justice Halilu said Maryam’s counsel, Joseph Daudu, did not provide cogent reasons for him to grant her bail.
The presiding judge said that Daudu had attached a medical report and requested for bail based on the health status of Mrs Sanda but that he did not prove to the court that the sickness cannot be treated in a detention facility.
Justice Halilu held that the fact that she is a nursing mother is not a general principle for granting bail, hence her denial of it.
He, however, granted bail to her mother, brother and the third defendant on the condition that they must provide two sureties each, who must reside within the city center of Abuja.
He also ordered them to submit their travel documents to the court, while the sureties must deposit proof of their landed properties in Abuja.
He adjourned the case to February 5th, 6th and 7th 2018. Maryamand her baby were later driven off to Suleja prison.

According to Cardi, her beau believed in her before she hit it big and was the only known star who agreed to collaborate with her when others turned her down.
Okay, okay chill! Before you open our big mouth and say we don’t have anything else to talk about than our reader’s hair… calm your nerves!
This lovely lady had us pondering on the short hairstyle trend that has been going on for a while and we’re decided to use her as medium to know whether or not, ladies, if you’d rock the short hair trend.
Mary Osigbeame showed us lovely before and after photos of her hair looks – long and short – and asks if she’s looking better after she cut her hair.
Take a look at her photos and tell us whether or not, using Mary as a reference, you’d opt out for short hair.
You know how people go on to various social media platforms and just say (write) stuffs without thinking about the rationality of what they’re saying?
Well, a young lady, Victoria Wilson Iheanyi falls into this category of people as she took to a page on Facebook dedicated to the admission process of Nigerian university, Olabisi Onabanjo University, OOU, to say that it’s because she’s too beautiful, that was why she didn’t get admission.
She says she just might be the cause of chaos in the school among the students and lecturers because of her beauty. In her own words:
“Am no more angry with OOU..since I realized why they didnt pick me…the truth is that they are scared of picking a beautiful gurl Like me bicus of their students future…i mean that they are scared that their first class students may leave their studies nd start studying me…and their competent lectures will only want to lecture me and ignore others…. So I forgive them.. Lobatan… #forest /bush OOU”
People have now in reaction, wondered where the so-called beauty in her is located after viewing her photo and don’t think she’s worth the attention.
Award-winning singer, songwriter, and dancer, Jason Durelo was featured on the 9th episode of Coke Studio Africa 5 as the international guest for this year, and to say the least, the episode was a smash!
In the global fusion episode of the show, the singer may have won himself more African fans. He talks about how huge African music has become across the world.
Aside from his energetic and captivating performance, here are five things we discovered about Jason Durelo during the show.
1. The first time he made a song in Africa was on Coke Studio Africa season 5. Jason revealed this when he was asked how he feels about making music with Africans.
2. His hit song ‘In my head’ started out as ‘In my bed’ before he eventually changed to the former. While preparing for the Afro-beat cover of the song, Jason told the Coke Studio artistes how he wrote the song at the age of 19.
3. He has several melodies. Before coming up with the melody for the first original track ‘One on One’, the American singer who has achieved eleven 11 platinum singles told Falz and Shekhinah about his style, saying “I don’t just do one melody, I do like eight melodies and then pick the one that I feel is the best”.
4. He is a Perfectionist, in a good way, though. Despite his accomplishments, Jason is a stickler for excellence. He would stop at nothing just so he and the people around him get things done right. He proved that while working with Falz on their collabo.
5. Jason Durelo is a dancer. Yes, he is that versatile, well technically! *wink* He does not just have talent as a music artiste and songwriter, he is also good with entertaining the audience.

A story is currently trending on Facebook about two supposedly gay Nigerian guy who were reportedly caught in the act of homosexuality.
Now take note carefully, these three names, Milli Casper, Rich Silver and Pepe Sneh… we’ll use Milli, Rich and Pepe for shorts.
Milli CasperRich Silver and Pepe Sneh
Milli, is the guy who, as YBL carried out its investigation, outed Rich and Pepe for supposedly being gay. According to Milli, he has proof that the duo are gay guys.
In a Facebook rant, Milli claims that he was set up by these two guys who went to steal a phone and planted it on him – he was then beaten mercilessly as though he was the one who stole the phone.
Milli later on acknowledged that he’s a thief and he just might have had a thing or two to do with the alleged theft – this is because the suspected gay guys had gone on Facebook to insult him and enraged by this, he decided to expose their forbidden sexuality.
Milli shared screenshots of the chat he had with Pepe and as can be seen, Pepe begged Milli not to publish their chats (of which Milli did) because it would damage his ‘reputation’ – Pepe, in his plea, subtly acknowledged his sexuality as sentences like “I’m not the first gay” , “is it a crime to be gay?” is seen from his account to Milli.
Milli, as at the time of this post is yet to publish the proofs he claims he has against Rich and Pepe but promises to expose them as he even puts his life on the line if he doesn’t. guy, if I no expose una make I die
Rich and Pepe on the other hand, have not denied the allegations against them but after Nigerians reacted to their story and apparently cursed at them, Pepe was forced to reveal that he was actually approached first by Rich and so Rich just might the real gay dude.
Pepe had taken to Facebook too, to call out Milli, who still published their chat, even though he begged him not to.
Rich, doesn’t seem to be bothered as he took to his page to praise his relationship with Pepe.

Nigerian barrister and politician, Omosede Igbinedion, one of the daughters of billionaire businessman, Gabriel Igbinedion, recently narrated how she was criticized severely by parents for coming to pick her son from school with a Rolls Royce.
According to her, other mothers who came to pick their children, caused a scene.
She took to her Instagram page to narrate the incident, she wrote;
‘Yesterday, I saw a woman run frantic, all because I brought a Rolls Royce to school to pick up Alex. She was so mad! Then she further attracted some other shallow people.
One of the ladies said she would bring 4 Rolls Royce’s tomorrow. Another one said she would park in the same spot I did, as the car took up the space of 2 cars. It just made me laugh.
You need to see the scene the woman caused. I really thought it was sad. Is anyone stopping them ? I just don’t get it.
I taught my son yesterday that hard work is key and I have always taught him never to compare himself with others, set his targets and aim for them.
What would such parents teach their children ? I used to be dropped off and picked from school with a Rolls when I was his age at school in London. Its obvious some people may be materially rich but mentally poor.
Its such a shame. ?????? I bet you if I parked a keke right in front of the school gate they would not mind that ???? Maybe na this Government !
Worst of it all is the school asking a teacher to take Alex out of class earlier, as they were causing such a scene.
May be these low thinking individuals did not want their kids to see the car and ask them questions. What a shame ! Tomorrow when their kids start stealing or having a complex you wonder why ?’
