Alison-Madueke Ready To Expose Secrets, Go To Jail [SEE REASON]

Alison-Madueke
Former Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke

The former Minister of Petroleum, Diezani Alison-Madueke has threatened to expose secrets connecting her with her associates, Kola Aluko and Jide Omokore.

Alison-Madueke, who is being investigated for corruption in Nigeria, United Kingdom and United States of America, also expressed readiness to face the wrath of the court which may result to her imprisonment.

This revelation is contained in series of recorded conversations recovered by investigators probing the corruption allegations against the former minister. Details of the conversations have now been filed as part of a civil complaint by the United States Department of Justice (DoJ) seeking the forfeiture of over $144 million slush fund.

Mrs Alison-Madueke alongside her accomplices, Mr. Aluko and Mr. Omokore were listed as persons of interest in the civil complaint filed at the US District Court, Houston, Texas. The complaint revealed how the three individuals laundered millions of dollars on behalf of Mrs Alison-Madueke, which was used in buying property in the US and the UK for her family in return for oil contracts to Atlantic Energy Drilling Concepts Nigeria Ltd, AEDC, and Atlantic Energy brass Development Ltd, AEBD, two Shell companies owned by Mr Omokore. In the conversation with Mr Aluko recorded by herself on May 14, 2014, a clearly angry Mrs Alison-Madueke admitted to helping her associates secure the multi-billion dollars Strategic Alliance Agreements, SAAs, deals.

In another conversation with another unknown recipient, the former minister dared Aluko to reveal details of their dealings, and then face the consequences. This she did in response to speculations that Mr Aluko was going to blackmail her, threatened to spill the beans. She said she was ready to reveal to Nigerians all that happened and was ready to follow Aluko and Omokore to jail.

“I will tell him (Aluko) to bring everything out, and then you know what will happen? No problem, I will be happy to escort all of you to jail along with myself. I said, in fact, you’ll be shocked by what I will do. Because when it comes to that, I will come out and tell the Nigerian people this is what happened.

“Anything they want to say, I am happy to go. But I will come out openly and say it so that they can judge me openly. And then all of us go and sit on the gate. Let us see who survives, me or you”, she said.

Alison-Madueke was the Former of Petroleum under the Former President Goodluck Jonathan.

Peter Okoye reacts to FG plan to ban Entertainers from shooting music videos, movies abroad

Peter Psquare Okoye has reacted to reports that the Federal Government is set to stop Entertainers from shooting their music videos, movies etc, outside of Nigeria.

This was disclosed by the Minister of Information, Lai Moammed when he paid a visit to the headquarters of the Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON) today July 15th.

“This government has agreed that henceforth, whatever we consume in Nigeria in terms of music and films, must be made in Nigeria. We cannot continue to go to South Africa or any other country to produce our films and then send them back to be consumed in Nigeria. The Broadcasting Code and the Advertising Code are very clear on this. For you to classify a product as a Nigerian product, it must have a certain percentage of Nigerian content”.

According to Lai, Nigerian entertainers patronise the economy of other countries whenever they go outside Nigeria to shoot their videos;

“When they get there, they will patronise the economy of that country and then bring the products back to Nigeria for us to consume. It is like somebody going to China or Japan to make a product that looks like palm wine and bring it back home to label it Nigerian palm wine. As long as we are not able to implement our own code to ensure local production of Nigerian music and movies, our young talents will not get jobs. It is Nigerians that pay for the consumption of these products and therefore they must be allowed and encouraged to participate in their production. I am going to meet with the relevant stakeholders over this, to see that whatever amendment that is needed to be made to our Broadcasting Code in this regard, is done urgently,” he said

Below is Peter Okoye’s Reaction to this recent development;

His elder brother, Jude has also reacted to this new development;

‘Smh. An industry they NEVER encouraged, supported or empowered is what they now want to control. Let all of you stop running to abroad when you are sick as na naija money una dey use patronize oyibo hospital dem. You people are the ones refusing to fix our health facilities so u travel out when mosquito bite una.

So why tell us where to record when u can’t provide uninterrupted power here in Nigeria. Sometime I wonder how we got it all wrong. Una children when dey sch for abroad na which money una dey use patronize them? Abeg stfu!’

Armed robbers attack Odunlade Adekola

Nollywood actors, Odunlade Adekola and Bolaji Amusan were attcked by armed robbers as they were returning from a Glo Music show in Ijebu-Ode.

According to reports, their cars ran into the armed robbers who had laid siege along Ilishan-Sagamu road.

Mr Latin narrated the ordeal to PREMIUM TIMES this morning saying,

“we left Ijebu-Ode after the show and heading to Abeokuta, when at about 7.30 p.m. we ran into the armed robbers already stationed themselves on the road,” he said.

He explained that Odunlade was driving ahead of his car when he sighted the road block by the bandits. Odunlade attempted to make a detour, but the bandits rained‎ bullets on the tyres forcing the car to a halt, he explained.

Mr Latin, who drove in his Toyota Camry behind Odunlade’s Toyota Avensis, said he and his colleague, alongside some of their aides, had to abandon their vehicles and run into the bush.

He said they were in the bush for almost two hours, while the bandits ransacked their vehicles, carting away valuables including money and mobile phones.

“We ran as the robbers pursued us with guns. We were in the bush for about two hours, before we later regained freedom after the robbers left the scene,” Mr Latin stated.

He said some vigilante members later came to their rescue and they were taken to Ogun State University Teaching Hospital, Sagamu for medical treatment.

He said‎ the matter has been reported to the police and thanked God for sparing their lives.

“It’s true, Davido has N30bn in his account” — Mayorkun

Davido’s signee, Mayorkun has confirmed that his boss didn’t only just brag about having N30bn in his account, saying indeed he has it or even more. In his recent chat with Potpourri on how much the Omo Baba Olowo is really worth, he said;

“First, we are our own artistes; we’re doing our own stuff,” he said, correcting the impression that artistes under DMW have been leveraging on the money and affluence of Davido to promote their respective music careers.

“Talking about the money, no be me sing ‘30billion for the account o’, so everybody knows the person that has the money and they know the people who are just trying to be heard. I’ve money of course, I’m making my own money but you can’t compare my money to Davido’s. Davido actually has as much as 30 billion, if not more than that; David is from a very wealthy family so don’t doubt it; we’re just street boys they’re trying to help”, he said.

Mercy Johnson debuts low hair cut

Mercy Johnson debuts low hair cut

Meanwhile, Mercy Johnson loves snug fits and wears them a lot thanks to her amazing figure.

The Nollywood actress loves body grazing pieces and she’s chosen styles around that in recent times. Apart from the fact that she has the enviable shape to pull of the fit in anything, her body is goals for outfits!

Known for her hourglass shape, the actress and mother of three has a body that stops people in their tracks and it’s refreshing to see how she has confidently embraced and dressed that body almost every single time (definitely every time she steps on the red carpet) to highlight her enviable frame.

No doubt the queen of snug fit with attention to details, her niptuck waist-usually the highlight of her fit- comes off smoothly done naturally (even if otherwise) she nails it.

To get the fit, she gets the support needed on the upper area which gives the flattering effect to the midriff that’s always ‘snatched’ seamless under any look and then works to balance out the lower part of the body which comes off more flattering especially with floor length pieces.

Her favourite style is the ‘mermaid’ fit that hugs her curve to perfection especially when it has a casual train, her second favourite is the peplum hem details that flatters anyway but this actress finds a way to make this trend accentuate her frame to perfection even when she sports casual bodytop her snug fit game is perfectly done, maybe a bit safe but it works for her everytime.

Eventually, he admitted it, saying: “Yeah, I f*****”

“He is childish and has no credibility whatsoever” — Phyno on Hushpuppi drama

Phyno is still speaking on the Hushpuppi Drama. This time he spoke with Sunday Scoop where he had a few words to say concerning the drama.

Hushpuppi drama

Rapper, Phyno made headlines few weeks back, when Malaysian-Based Nigerian Big Boy, Ray Hushpuppi attacked him and Ice Prince, and accused them of wearing Fake Patek Wrist Watches.

He wrote: “If you don’t want people to patronise pirated copy (sic) of your work, don’t patronise pirated copy of other people’s work #Hypocrites.”

The drama was ugly.. You can catch up on the Gist Here, Here, Here and Here.

Having none of that, Phyno took to his Snapchat account to reply. In a series of posts, he wrote, “We are not on the same level. You live and die for Gucci. I will live and die for my people. The hunger is different here man…I’ve got cribs, live in my house, yet never posted it. Bought a house for my mum; never posted it. Got her a car on her birthday last two years; never posted it.”

Sunday Scoop caught up with the Igbo rapper and he stated that he had put the episode behind him.

“It is very childish to brag about what I have. I care more about touching lives in positive ways. It is not really about how much you have in your bank account but how many people’s lives you have made better. The good thing is that I have a track record and people know what I do. So it doesn’t really make sense for me to be exchanging words with someone who just came from nowhere and has no credibility whatsoever.”

Shedding some light on his background, Phyno said,

“I am happy for how far I have come. My father never wanted me to become an artiste because he felt it wasn’t a good profession. But I decided to stick to my guns and I have proved that one can also have a good life with music. Now, people call on me to mentor their children and that couldn’t have happened years ago. Nigerian music has gone global and the future looks even brighter.”

Nigerian lady writes letter to Seyilaw over his daughter, Tiwa

Nigerian lady writes letter

A lawyer has written an Open Letter to Comedian Seyilaw over his daughter whom many have fingered to be obese.

Earlier today, the topic of her weight sprung up again, after his bitter spat with controversial journalist, Kemi Olunloyo.

Now, a Nigerian Lawyer, Ayomide Adebayo-Oyetoro has written to Seyilaw to really watch his child.

Below is what she wrote;

‘I was obese as a child and I still am. And I’m not the only one. Research shows about one in five school aged children are obese. Parents close their eyes to this reality by claiming the child would outgrow it. It rarely happens.

Children should be fed right, properly and healthy. An obese child is open to a lot of health really risks. I know because I am speaking from experience.

Firstly, an obese child is prone to eating disorders. Most times, an obese child becomes an obese adult and becomes prone to eating disorders because she’d lack self-control to be able to say no to good food.

Another effect of child obesity is cardiac issues including but not limited to hypertension, asthma etc. I had asthma as a child and I still do as an adult. My attacks zigzag with my weight.

Lastly, another effect of child obesity is bone related diseases. An obese child is prone to bone ailments like arthritis, rheumatism. Tell an obese person to climb stairs and watch them thank you.

Sugarcoat it all you want, the effects are long lasting. From low self-esteem to depression.

Watch Tiwa’s weight biko! Thank you!
