Influential Nigerian businessman and chairman of Oriental Energy Resources, Muhammdu Indimi, whose son is married to President Buhari’s daughter, had a chat with Premium Times where he said though he never went to school, he now supervises people with master’s and Ph.D.s who are working in his organization.
The Borno billionaire businessman further disclosed that he learnt English Language by listening and associating with people.
“Thank God today, as an unlettered person by western standards I still supervise people with master’s and Ph.D.s who are working in my organisation,”
“As a matter of fact, if any of my employees wants to approach me with any project proposal or some kind of memo or presentation, they have to be well-prepared and make sure they did their home work well because they know I will definitely point out any error therein. So, Alhamdullillahi, I thank God for his kindness upon me.”
“It may interest you to know that I have never been to any formal school all my life. No teacher of western education can say he or she had taught me how to pronounce the alphabet ‘A’ in my life.
“I simply learnt by listening and associating with people. I am a very committed person when it comes to learning and adapting.”
The billionaire also talked about the $900,000 he donated to Lynn University, US, where 10 of his children graduated from – he said the money was to build a bigger lecture hall in the university.
“The students approached me and asked if I could be available to give them an insight as to how I was able to accomplish such business successes without any form of formal education,” Indimi said.
“What they wanted was some kind of talk or lecture. And when I went to share my experience with them, I found out that the venue was too small for the crowd that attended the programme, and it was from there I pledged to help them build a better and befitting lecture for the faculty.”
When actress, Caroline Danjuma was still married to wealthy businessman Musa Danjuma, she’d engaged in a series of social media fights with a lady named ‘Audream‘ – whom she accused of being a stripper trying to destroy her matrimonial home.
Now we know that Caroline and Musa have since parted ways over his alleged escapades, but it looks as though Audream might still be involved with him.
According to reports, she’s currently partying in Lagos, Nigeria with a police escort driving her around and after blogs announced her arrival, she threw shade at Caroline via IG – saying:
“Omg blogs no please not dis dry gist again. I beg leave me in Peace to live my life. I have no Beef wit dis Lady let her mourn the lost of her alleged lover in peace.”
The Lagos State Emergency Management Agency says it has recovered the body of Mr Oluseye Adekunle, who allegedly jumped into a Lagos lagoon on Friday.
The LASEMA General Manager, Mr Adesina Tiamiyu, told journalists in Lagos that a fisherman saw Adekunle’s floating body on Sunday morning by a river bank in Lekki.
He said that the deceased had jumped off the Lekki/Ikoyi Bridge into the lagoon.
Tiamiyu said that a coordinated effort of LASEMA, Lagos State Waterways Authority and Marine Police recovered the floating body at 5.00am and handed it over to the Lagos State Health Environmental Monitoring Unit.
“The body has been taken to Lagos Mainland Hospital Mortuary for deposition.
“Police will carry out further investigations on the matter,’’ he said.
Tiamiyu said that relevant agencies and the family of the deceased were consulted after the recovery to confirm the identity. He said that the recovery exercise closed at 11.30am.
Nollywood veteran actor, Jim Iyke, has insisted that people who expected so much from him and Ghanaian actress, Nadia Bauri, that they forgot that they were into show business.
In a new interview with Punch, he says,
“Things didn’t get messy as people thought. Two people met in the entertainment industry and there was a reality show at a time that kept us together. So, we did a smart thing anybody who found himself or herself in such situation would have done. And when the entertainment was over, we moved on to our normal lives.”
He also adds, “For anyone who thought anything extraordinary happened, it was a live show except that it played into our personal lives too. I got what I wanted, which was follower ship and I appreciate the audience for watching. She understood what she was coming into and I understood as well. We got the mileage we both wanted and we moved on with our lives. Five years down the lane, people are still talking about it.”
According to a video making the rounds online, a man suspected to be married took a woman to watch a match at a stadium but quickly hid his face from the camera for fear of being shown live on TV.
Unfortunately, his face and the hottie he took to have fun with were already beamed live!
A British man identified as Jamie Harron has been sentenced to three months in prison in Dubai for touching a man’s hip inside a bar.
He was arrested in July over the incident in which he said he put his hand on a man’s hip to avoid spilling a drink in a crowded bar.
The 27-year-old electrician had been working in Afghanistan and was on a two-day stopover in the United Arab Emirates at the time.
A campaign group called Detained in Dubai (DiD) said he was sentenced to three months imprisonment at court on Sunday but lawyers plan to appeal. The group said Harron is “angry, disappointed, and dreads what may happen next“.
He is not currently in custody while the appeal is considered, DiD chief executive Radha Stirling said. Harron has already been sentenced in absentia to 30 days in prison for failing to appear at a court hearing for making a rude gesture and drinking alcohol during the same July incident.

A music producer, has been given a walk down memory lane after he took to Twitter to announce that MAVINS recording artiste, Reekado Banks is the realest artiste.
Seemed like a nice compliment until Banks reminded the producer that he insulted him two years, asking him to keep his hailing.
Funny how people don’t wanna help you to the top but would familiarize with you when you get there… hmph!
While addressing audiences at the Eagles Summit – an annual gathering of alumnus of Covenant University at the school’s main campus – in Ota, the school’s Chancellor and General Overseer of Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, shared how Nigeria’s House of Representatives Speaker, Yakubu Dogara once made a sacrificial offering of his six months salary during the construction of Covenant University over 15 years ago.
Bishop Oyedepo who spoke on ‘Developing spiritual capacity towards sustainable global impact’, is quoted:
“The Speaker of the Federal House of Assembly has been a son to me since his university days. He shared a testimony yesterday about how he heard me say something in Bauchi in 1988 and it changed his entire life forever. 1988 in Bauchi. It transformed his life forever because he picked it up and ran with it.
“When your University was taking off and we started construction, he sacrificed his 6 months salary wholesale to Covenant University. He has never had to struggle for anything in his life. Everything works in divine frequency for him.”
“And you hear him say again, I am a son of the House. Yes in the midst of wolves, i am a practicing Christian. No truly spiritual person ever gets stranded in life. I gave my life to Christ 48 years ago so I have lived all my life with Jesus. Zero regrets.”
“First Bank officials came here during the third phase of the construction and asked which bank is bankrolling this project, and I told them none. They said it is impossible. They didn’t understand.”
“Your university has never been indebted to any bank. That is the benefit of spirituality, things work for you in a way that seems impossible to man.”
“A top American economist and professor came to visit and came to my office and said this is an Ivy League standard university even in America. I told him thank you, I know.”
When he hit the Nigerian music scene in 2010, it was with the force of dynamite. His rise to stardom was meteoric and every song he released was an instant hit. At 19, he had become a household name, boasting of a multi-million naira endorsement deal with telecoms giant, MTN.
But then, with success in the music industry, came a world of scandals and controversies. Not long ago, Davido embarked on a $30 billion tour that took him to 30 cities across the globe. However, the singer ran into troubled waters with his show promoters when he failed to turn up for a sold out show on September 1 in Colorado, USA.
Fans had indeed been angry and expressed their disgust at the failure of Davido to show up for the show. Obviously aware that there could be a backlash, the singer went online on September 2 to apologise to his fans.
In a snap chat message, he declared that he would have been arrested for credit card fraud like fellow musician, Dammy Krane, had he come for the show. He stated that it was in a bid to avoid being “Dammy Krane” that made him not to appear in Colorado.
“Damn they almost Dammy Kraned me smh! Can’t make the show in Colorado tonight! We were at the airport for five hours. I’m so sorry! It was out of our hands and there was nothing we could do. I will do all I can to make it up to you guys… God bless,” he stated.
However, Davido’s apology did little to assuage frayed nerves. In a swift reaction, the organiser, BME, had carpeted the musician, stating that he deliberately missed the show, while dubbing him a liar, SUN learnt.
According to BME, three flights had been booked for Davido consecutively but he bluntly failed to honour any of them, under the guise that he was doing a photo shoot, while he was actually partying.
BME said:
“We attempted to book a fourth flight for Davido but Davido failed to accept the fourth flight arrangement, stating that he wanted a direct flight into Denver. We could not get him a direct flight to Denver, as there were none; all that was available was connecting flights.
Davido, who bluntly refused to make his flight three times, then posted on his snapchat that he was not going to make it to Colorado! We don’t owe Davido. He breached his contract!”
Disappointed and fuming, Ayodele Akindele, a staunch fan of Davido based in Colorado, had stated:
“It is obvious that Davido is not telling the truth. That he was arrested is probably an excuse just to get off the hook. We all came out and bought tickets for his show only for him to abandon us; it is so sad.”
Another fan of Davido, Balkissa Saidou, said: “(Davido) stole my money, wasted my time and didn’t even have the decency to be honest to the guests. So disappointed.”
And for Dan Asima, Davido simply took his fans for granted.
“It is sad that Davido chose to go parting while his fans here in Colorado were waiting for him. It is so sad.”
Meanwhile, in order to assuage fans, BME had organised another concert for October 16 featuring P-Square. It was a free show. But lots of music fans were not assuaged by BME’s option.
An angry Ashley Reynolds fumed:
“This means nothing to me! You guys still haven’t resolved anything. And to sum it up, you guys try and bring another artiste out here when the first one never came. You guys trying to butter people up with a free concert. (This) isn’t going to make people forget how you’ve wronged us. Nor will it bring our money back to our wallets.”
When Sunday Sun called Davido’s manager, Asa Asika for his reaction, mum was the word. He neither picked his call nor replied text messages sent him.
Nigerian singer, Obiwon and his lovely wife, Nkechi, are celebrating their sixth wedding anniversary today October 22nd.
The excited husband took to his Instagram page to celebrate her, sharing lovely photos of the both of them and also giving tips on marriage. He wrote:
‘There are things in life that all the money in the world can’t buy – life, health, protection, a sweet marriage – my wife is one of the greatest gifts God gave me. To look forward to coming home everyday to unconditional support, love, joy, peace is priceless. It’s purely divine favour.
Of course we don’t always agree on everything, everytime. Today on our 6th anniversary I thought to share the little I know, perhaps it’ll help someone: .
If you’re not yet married ask God for a humble person. Love doesn’t work without humility, on both sides. Humility in marriage is the saliva with which you swallow offence. Pray that you both’ll always submit to each other for the sake of your love. Beauty is only skin deep. .
If you’re a christian seeking to marry a christian, don’t look for “gifts, anointing, talent, serves in church”. To identify a “marryable” christian, look for “fruits”, from the fruit of the Holy Spirit.
.
Marriage does not cure lust, the best sex in the world will not automatically remove all attraction from your bones. Lust is of the flesh, it is the Holy Spirit that puts the flesh under. Your spouse can deeply satisfy you sexually, this is a gift, but you must keep treating anything lustful outside your spouse with a very long spoon. Let he that thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. .
As food makes the body grow & healthy, so does sex make your marriage grow & very healthy. If your partner is not in the mood don’t be selfish, it’ll only create problems. Rather woo him/her always. .
Tackle the issue causing the disagreement, not your partner. If you always make this distinction your home will be constantly filled with joy.
.
Your understanding won’t always be aligned. At times one person will be doing the sacrificing and bending more than the other. When it is your turn, humbly do it, while praying for your partner’s eyes to be opened.
.
Do I need to tell you that a 3-fold cord is not easily broken? If you and partner take orders and solutions to issues only from Jesus, before you act or react, nothing will ever come between you.
The Lord Jesus bless you with a marriage you will enjoy, not endure, keeping you both alive to enjoy it. Amen.
Fellow Nigerians, I often wonder why an average Nigerian politician is so squeamish. They love and crave power but eventually prove too timid to do the needful. The comfort power provides seems to be what matters most to them, but, certainly not the pain it may attract.
God bless all those who fought for the democracy we seem to be bastardising today. It is difficult to pick out the Obafemi Awolowos, the Sir Adesoji Aderemis, the Nnamdi Azikiwes, the Anthony Enahoros, the Funmilayo Ransome-Kutis, the Wole Soyinkas, the Aminu Kanos, Abubakar Rimis, the Alfred Rewanes, the Waziri Ibrahims, the Fela Anikulapo-Kutis, Gani Fawehinmis, the Moshood Abiolas, the Kudirat Abiolas, the Abraham Adesanyas, the Alani Akinrinades, the Bola Tinubus, the Bolaji Akinyemis, and such others in the crowd today. These were men and women who were not afraid of tyrants and tyranny.
The reason for the poser on this page this week is simple and straight-forward. I never imagined that a day would come, at this time and age, when supposed democrats would voluntarily throw away their freedom, like many of our leaders seem to be doing at the moment.
Less than two years to the next Presidential elections, only three aspirants have demonstrated the guts to come out in the open to express their ambition publicly, former Vice President, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, Ekiti State Governor, Dr Peter Ayodele Fayose and former Jigawa State Governor, Alhaji Sule Lamido. The fourth person who has expressed his intention privately to me is my friend and brother, Mr Alistair Soyode, the Chairman of BEN Television, United Kingdom.
I really don’t care if they win or not but I salute their audacity to challenge the status quo. You can never, and will never, win if you don’t try first. There would have been no President Barack Obama or President Donald Trump if they failed to throw their hats in the ring. I know so many over-qualified Nigerians who want to contest but are being bogged down by trepidation or abject fear. They only express their dreams in hushed tones. I call them jelly, lily-livered beings. I feel sad anytime I read in the newspapers about full-grown men abdicating their God-given inalienable power to demi-gods with feet of clay.
Let me say categorically that Nigeria will never change unless we change our style of doing things. How can we do the same things repeatedly and expect the same failures to evaporate and vamoose? I’m now convinced that we need our whizz-kids to step out and leap forward to grab power as soon as possible.
No one would say we have not been patient enough. Our serial experiments have not yielded the desired results. We had our fair share of coups. We fought a most atrocious civil war. However, despite all this and when given the opportunity, we choose to largely vote for the dregs of society above visibly talented candidates.
We have recycled leaders. Former Head of State, General Olusegun Obasanjo departed in 1979 but resurrected in 1999. Now Major General Muhammadu Buhari who was sacked in 1985 catapulted himself back to power in 2015. Even President Ibrahim Babangida who stepped aside in 1993 attempted to sneak back in 2003 but President Obasanjo bullied him into submission and he perished the thought without as much as a whimper.
Recall, that the man who took over from President Obasanjo in 2007, Alhaji Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, who was already the Governor of Katsina State, was the brother of Major General Shehu Musa Yar’Adua, and his emergence was to ostensibly compensate their family for the death of Shehu in prison, under the Abacha regime. In short, it has been a relay race by military Generals and their acolytes and cronies.
I’m happy that Buhari has fulfilled his own dream. I voluntarily supported him and owe him my love and prayers till 2019 when that contract would expire. I pray that God will grant him the wisdom to understand and appreciate the treacherous nature of politics and politicians. I see how Governors are falling over themselves to visit him and pay homage to HE who must be obeyed and worshipped. I wish to admonish Baba not to believe this monumental scam of the highest order.
If and when tomorrow comes, Baba will be stunned at how these same latter day disciples will turn against him 360 degrees. I can place a bet on that. Everyone is afraid today because of the palpable fear of EFCC. No more. No politician wants to be roughened up for any reason.
Their strategy is to pretend like rattlesnakes and pounce on the prey without warning. I foresee Buhari as one such quintessential prey. These guys are not going to extend this regime of fear by another four years. Buhari would have to go on a blistering offensive to come back to power in 2019. I’m sure, he’s going to be cajoled into believing that he’s the Messiah Nigerians have waited for all this while, until they pull the rug from under his feet.
I remember one of Chief Moshood Abiola’s favourite wisecracks “aponle ni ‘foreman’, enikan o le se ise eeyan merin” (the appellation of Foreman is a mere exaggeration, no man can do the job of four men). There is a limit to what Buhari can achieve in less than two years to come because time flies at supersonic speed.
By this time next year, he must be on the campaign trail if indeed he wants to return to power in 2019 and his Party has nominated him as candidate. Since politics is a game of numbers, he would have to travel round Nigeria and plead for votes. You can force people to support your tenure in power but you can’t intimidate people to vote for you because you will never see the minds of voters. According to a popular political song in the First Republic, “boo roju mi, o rinu mi, demo ni mo wa…” (You may be able to see my face but you can’t read my mind, I’m a member of Demo (National Democratic Party) …]. Such is life.
The truth I want to tell today, as a major supporter of Buhari in 2015, is that his goodwill has weakened and waned drastically and dramatically. Minus the favoured members of the inner caucus of this government, things are no longer at ease within the ruling party. Is there anything Baba can do to redeem himself, his party and floundering government? Of course yes, I believe in miracles.
He must listen to the cries of the people. He should concentrate on building institutions instead of pursuing handpicked individuals. He should unleash the talents that abound in every part of Nigeria instead of seeking to please any section. It is always better to be a national hero than a local champion.
Nigeria is too divided at the moment and this is not good for national development. I still have faith in Baba’s ability to do the best for this country. It is clear to me that this is the legacy that he wants to leave behind albeit that this has not yet been achieved.
The government must be restructured before Nigeria itself can be restructured. The recent mess in NNPC was as a result of excessive and unnecessary officialdom and bureaucracy. The President need not be the Minister of Petroleum. The functions of the Minister of State in relation to the Board of NNPC should be clearly delineated if at all there is any role for him. Such ridiculous overlaps we recently saw should never have happened. We should stop over-concentrating power in one man. It has been said that “absolute power corrupts absolutely…”
Ministers must be allowed to do their constitutional duty, in accordance with the provisions of section 148 of the 1999 Constitution, of meeting regularly with the President and the Vice President to (i) determine the general direction of domestic and foreign policies of the Government (ii) co-ordinate their respective activities in the discharge of their executive responsibilities and (iii) advise the President generally in discharge of his executive functions other than those functions where he must be advised by other persons.
The revelations coming from the NNPC debacle where we now know that it is possible for a Minister of State of a crucial ministry such as the Petroleum Resources not to see the President for months on end should never be allowed to happen. Regular meetings with Ministers and the Vice President as envisaged by section 148 is not, cannot and should not be limited to the weekly Federal Executive Council meetings. The regular meetings should also include meetings with groups of Ministers and even individual Ministers.
That is surely the intendment of the Constitution. As it is with the Federal Government, so it should be with the State Governments, as similar provision for the States exists in section 193 of the 1999 Constitution.
The corollary of this is that both at Federal and State level Ministers and Commissioners must be appointed as early as possible into the administration. The situation where President Buhari did not nominate and appoint Ministers until more than 4 months into his administration and Governor Rauf Aregbesola did even worse by waiting almost 3 years to select his cabinet must never happen again.
The Civil and Public Service must become transparent and accountable again. Civil and public servants are there to serve us as their nomenclature indicates.
They are not meant to be overlords creating fiefdoms where the general populace become their serfs or even worshippers in some cases. A truly restructured viable and vibrant civil and public service is the lynchpin for a proper democratic, fair and just society.
It is insensitive and inappropriate for Government to expect the best of these workers if they are not properly remunerated not to mention, the present scenario, where even the ridiculous wages that they are paid are paid many months in areas. It is the same insensitivity that extends to the illogical policy of no work, no pay! Imagine the chaos and calamity if the workers through the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC) also decided that there would be ‘No pay, no work’! A properly structured government would be faced with no such conundrum and the nation can only be better for it.
Courageous Nigerians must step forward and herald the much needed change in governance. They do not have to wait on President Buhari’s decision as to whether he will seek a second term or not before showing their hand.
They would be doing the nation a wealth of good if only what they achieve is to provide stiff opposition to the President and an opportunity for the people to truly use their votes. Otherwise, the Nigerian public would simply have been short-changed and disenfranchised as usual by the political class because again they would be limited in their choice of candidates.
Actor, Williams Uche Mba has just copped for himself, a whooping $44,000 Brand New 2016 Mercedes Benz C300.
The actor, who is based in the United States, turned a year older, today, and to celebrate himself, he copped for himself the brand new machine.
“My New Baby!! Decided to get myself a gift since it’s my birthday today and it has been an amazing year. God has been faithful. $44k on four wheels. #mercedesbenz #2016C300 #seekfirstGodskingdom” He wrote as the caption of the post.
Nigerian singer, Davido, has opened up on his life, career and what determines him jumping on a track. He had a recent chat with Ukrainian TV personality, Magdaline Nonkwia, during his Europe tour in Ukraine.
The interview titled “Moments with Madyln” was an interesting one in which Davido revealed certain things about his career and his recent hit singles, ‘Fall’ and ‘IF’.
He also talked about the inspiration behind his verse on Humblesmith’s ‘Osinachi’ remix.
He said;
“Growing up I didn’t always sing, but I knew I would end up in the entertainment industry as I just loved parties, I loved watching artistes on TVs and I was always involved in school plays and more”
When asked when he discovered he could sing, he said;
“It isn’t really about knowing how to sing, knowing how to sing and knowing how to make music are two different things, I know how to make music more than signing, I started as a producer, for me producing for other people and composing, one day my guy just said try it yourself and it was a hit”
He then went further blasting bloggers and social media haters as well as revealing that he likes them and he also revealed his mood determines if he jumps in a track.
Tonto Dikeh shared the below cute photo with her son, and wrote as the caption; “If you still doubt the Mighty hands of God,Take a look at me now. Am still in awe of all God has and is doing for my Family. Thank God we don’t look like what we have been through. Thank God for your Grace lord’.”
It is no longer news that Tonto Dikeh and her estranged husband, Churchill Oladunni are now separated but what’s news is the never-ending and rants from both parties.
When Tonto Dikeh got married to Churchill Oladunni, it looked like a union blessed from heaven, it didn’t take too long before fights and drama enveloped the marriage.
Tonto Dikeh had her bride price returned to Churchill’s family in the wake of several reports of domestic violence which she claimed to have encountered while living with him.
While everyone thought that was going to be the end of the drama, Churchill Oladunni fired back by releasing a video where he gave a detailed account of how Tonto Dikeh allegedly packed out of their matrimonial home, even got arrested while in Ghana by the police authority for domestic violence.
Tonto Dikeh who wasn’t going to let sleeping dogs lie, came out on several occasions to debunk the claims that Churchill Oladunni took care of her, she even went as far as saying she spent the sum of N10M on their wedding.
It’s one day, one drama for Tonto Dikeh, as we begin to wonder when would the drama clouding the end of this marriage end?

An angry father has been caught on tape, beating the heck out of a teenager he caught in his daughter’s bedroom.
The girl apparently, is 13, but the age of the boy cannot be ascertained as at the time of filing this report.

A Pakistani Medial Doctor, shared a very touching story of how a Woman who was barren for over 14 years, finally got pregnant, and died during childbirth.
Read his piece below;
Today is the saddest day of my life. As a Doctor, I have handled so many pregnant women in Labour and every time am in the delivery room I always pray to God to bless all mothers.
The pain women go through in the delivery room is undescribable and this does not include the 9 months they spent carrying the baby. They go through a lot just to bring forth new life.
Today I cried bitterly because I lost a woman, we don’t pray for things like this to happen but sometimes God may have other plans. Why is this woman’s case so painful? She has been barren for 14 years! We have tried IVF & so many method known to man, the woman went through a lot.
Finally God blessed her, it was way beyond science and human knowledge. She just got pregnant despite the fact she has ovarian cyst and huge load of fibroids, brethren she got pregnant. Her fibroid started melting and everything was OK, I know that’s God, he will do things just to show off his glory and awesomeness.
After 9 months, it was time, her husband rushed her to the hospital and quickly I left everything that I was doing and attended to her. She laboured for hours, after 7 hours, it was so painful so we decided to open her up. We lost her but the baby was alive,. Before her death, she held the baby in her arms and smiled “God is great” and then she gave up the ghost.
I was devastated and sad, I went to broke the news to her husband myself, upon hearing the news, her husband fainted, their happy day just turned sour. We lost a live just to deliver a new life today. Please respect women because they pass through the valley of death to bring life. Respect your wife! Carrying your baby for 9 months is no jokes and labouring for hours to give birth to your children is a huge sacrifice.
I pray to God to please protect everyone reading this, especially pregnant women, please put them in your prayers. Dear husband, I repeat respect your wife because she is truly the giver of life. May God strengthen all pregnant women, you will all deliver your babies like the women of Hebrew.
Don’t ignore this post, share to others it is very important because the women in our lives should be worshipped….

After years of smoking week and taking hard drugs, Veteran Musician, Baba Fryo has declared he has stopped the trade, about 3 years ago.
In a chat with Sunday Scoop, he says it’s just plain stupidity for one to abuse or take any hard drug, as there are no benefits innit.
He said,
“To me, it is just stupidity for one to abuse anything or take hard drugs because I don’t see the benefit. Anyone who takes hard drugs is just ‘donating’ madness to him or herself. Most of these young guys indulge in these things because they either want to show off or are influenced by their friends.
“As for me, drugs don’t add anything to me. Now, I only take alcohol and that is whenever I am in the midst of friends, but I don’t drink excessively.”
He admitted that he took weed for many years before he realised that it was adding nothing to him.
“I took weed for so many years, but I stopped about three years ago. I asked myself what it was adding to me and I didn’t get any positive answer. I would just be calm and quiet for like four hours and people would keep wondering what was wrong with me. I also calculated the amount of money I was spending monthly to sustain the habit and it occurred to me that this tidy sum could be put to better use. For anyone who takes cocaine or any other type of hard drug, he or she is killing himself gradually.
“I talk to younger artistes who are close to me, but I can only advise them. For the ones who are not close to me, there is no way I can talk to them because some of these boys are arrogant. Once I sense that you are full of yourself, I don’t come near you,” the Notice Me singer said.

The wedding will be in 3 parts, One that held in Ilorin, Kwara state, yesterday, 21st, another one in Lagos on the 28th, where the traditional wedding will hold, and the “Grand finale wedding”, will hold on the 8th of December.
…..and a Nigerian, Nurudeen Adeyemi has this to say;
For Tosin Saraki, the daughter of the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki to marry a Christian man that simply show that Tosin has been following the religion of her mother (Toyin Saraki) before now and its haram for any Alfa in Ilorin to coordinate such marriage, unfortunately, Alfas Ilorin are more to money than standing for Islam.
However, with this marriage, Bukola Saraki has proved to the northerners that he is more of a southerner than being a northerner and this marriage will have consequences on his political agenda even am sure some northerners politicians will make mockery of daughter’s marriage.
Since it’s impossible to see a Muslim northerner politician to marry off his daughter to a Christian man, even he can’t allow his son to marry a Christian lady, though Islam permits this but didn’t permit a Muslim woman to marry a Christian man.
In the north, marriage and religion have a strong tie with their political system and with Tosin Saraki’s marriage to a Christian man that will make it very very difficult for Bukola Saraki to be adopted by the northerners politicians to be the presidential candidate for the north coming any year.
Below are first photos from the wedding in Ilorin;
