The body of Late Nollywood Actress, Moji Olaiya has arrived Nigeria from Canada few weeks after she died in the country.
The Late 40-year-old actress died of cardiac arrest in Canada just two months after she delivered a baby.
Though, there were reports that her first daughter insisted she wanted her mothers body to be flown back to Nigeria even as she was scheduled to be buried in Canada.
Further reports also claimed that the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose failed to assist with the repatratiation of her body to Nigeria after initially making promises.
The state government however denied ever promising to sponsor the transportation of her body to Nigeria.
It was later learnt that former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu sponsored the repatriation of her body to the country.
AML has obtained a copy of the Complaint/Arrest Affidavit for Nigerian pop singer Dammy Krane and his co-defendant Chukwuebuka Gabriel Ilonchowu (“Ebuka”), an alleged U.S. promoter who allegedly hired Krane’s services to perform in the United States. The complaint explains the details of how and why the two were arrested for the alleged crimes of grand theft, credit card, and identity fraud, among other charges.
To summarize the allegations against the two, Krane and Ebuka purchased two private charter flight tickets with fraudulent credit cards to travel from Miami to Washington D.C. The CEO of the company they purchased the tickets from, Eugene Kesselman of Tap Jets Inc., was suspicious of them and contacted the police who arrived and waited for them at the airport. When the duo subsequently arrived at the airport, the police detained them and subsequently took them into custody, after an investigation.
The police say they were able to identify the duo by their legal names. Dammy Krane had his passport along with several credit cards in the front of his pant pocket. Three of the credit cards were in Krane’s name but four were in the name of a William Payton III. The duo each had a book bag and a suitcase. When the officer searched those, legitimately per the officer’s claim, they found several cell phones and laptops in the bags of the duo.
The two were read their Miranda rights after the police established there was probable cause to arrest them. The police asked if they wished to speak with an attorney. They allegedly declined by waiving their rights to counsel.
By the way, the police say in the complaint that Kesselman’s employee Stephanie Rodriguez claims that she received a call from Dammy Krane who wanted to know when his jet flight would arrive, and also whether there were issues with the credit card on file for him. The police claim that even though she knew that there was an issue, she did not want to alarm him. So she told him there was no issue. Nevertheless, he mentioned there were other card numbers he could give her to ensure there was no issue.
As it stands, both co-defendants are still in custody and have been denied bail. Dammy Krane who was set for a Nebbia Hearing today appeared in court and was denied a release on bail. He is set to be arraigned on June 23rd, 2017.
The District Attorney is also allegedly considering adding more charges against Dammy Krane.
Krane’s co-defendant, Ebuka, has a prior history of grand theft, and fraud crimes.

In what seem like, “I’m not interested in a picture” Kinda thing, Tonto Dikeh’s estranged husband, Olakunle Churchill, might just have snubbed TBoss in a new video she shared herself on Instagram.
Yesterday, TBoss and her sister, Aunty Wendy bumped into Olakunle Churchill, Founder of Churchill Big Group at a Microsoft Event, and he seems uninterested in talking to her or even taking a picture.
Despite this apparent snub, the second runner up of the Big Brother Naija Reality TV Show, shared the video of their meeting on her instagram. She captioned it;
“Looky look who I bumped into tonight…. @bigchurchhaven. It was such a pleasure running into you once again sir and mega congratulations on your Microsoft Deal,”
However, Tboss’ fans ‘BossNation’ were unhappy with Churchill’s cold body language.
Some demanded that she should delete the video while others were of the opinion that she should never have uploaded the video in the first instance.
Again, it might not be so, as Olakunle Churchill himself many weeks ago presented Abuja Land gift to the Top 5 housemates.. So, what went wrong?
Popular Nollywood actor, Yomi Fash-Lanso, has taken to Instagram to share what his dad did after a Pastor told him to sow his new car into his life.
It’s quite hilarious what his dad did following the pastor’s request. Read it as Yomi shared below:
“When I was a kid, my dad bought a new car and drove us to church one Sunday. It was a prophetic service and our pastor was being used by God that day to deliver people from poverty.
Suddenly, our pastor looked at my dad and said, “Mr. Alamu, God is set to bless you” my mum jumped up and shouted excitedly, “Amen!!!” My dad was excited too.
The pastor then came closer, placed his hand on my dad’s head and prayed for him. As our pastor turned to climb the altar, the spirit of God told him something.
He stopped, looked at my dad and said, “Mr. Alamu did you buy a new car last week?” “Yes sir” my dad responded with much surprise on his face.
Then our pastor said; God said I should tell you to sow your CAR KEY into my life”
I was shocked that my dad did not argue with the pastor, he just put his hand in his pocket, brought out the car key and gave it to our pastor.
Chai… Aiyeeee ooooo…Mogbe
After about 5 minutes, my dad stood up, went outside the church, he didn’t even wait till the end of the service. I could see him entering Okada going home. “He must be very worried” I reasoned in utter fear and confusion.
After a while he returned to church with the SPARE KEY of his car and drove the car back to the house. I was so stunned at what I was seeing.
So when I asked him why he acted that way he said: “Oluwayomi” always use your brain, the pastor asked for the KEY and NOT the CAR”! Thanking you so much my BABA for impacting knowledge.

There was a power outage, so we couldn’t see clearly. My husband was the first to wake up. They broke into the house through the front door. They didn’t say anything to us even as we asked what they wanted from us. .
I just heard my husband shouting, ‘In Jesus name’. I also re-echoed it, saying ‘Amen, in Jesus name.’ I never knew they had stabbed him in the chest. They left by scaling the church’s fence. I saw that my husband had become weak. That was when I knew that they had stabbed him. There was a lot of blood in the room.”
