Heat of the moment from the YBNL stables, Adekunle Gold has unveiled the art work for his debut album, Gold, that’s set to be released on July 28, 2016.
What caught our attention the most was that the 16-track album has only one artiste featured, and it’s none other than his ‘boo’, stunning singer, Simi who also mixed and mastered most of the songs on the yet to be released album.
The album art which was designed by the singer himself, with the photographs taken by TY Bello is a detailed piece of work that creates an imagery of what is to be expected from the album.
While many are seeing absolutely nothing wrong with it, others are outrageous with the act.
A fashion company has caused a massive stir on Social Media after, their annual swimwear event featured child models walking on the runway in skimpy bikinis.
Some internet users even blasted the parents of the young models where one said, using kids in fashion shows is “child abuse”, while another begged: “Please look after your daughters”.
So we throw the question at y’all – will you let your kid siblings or children do this?!

A South African sportsman, Gugu Zulu, while trying to summit Kenya’s Mount Kilimanjaro to mark Mandela Day has reportedly died while trying.
A statement from the Nelson Mandela Foundation said details are “sketchy” but that it appeared Gugu Zulu had problems breathing early Monday as his group tried to reach Africa’s highest peak.
“We are informed that the medical teams tried everything possible to save his life” as they tried to descend, the statement said.
The foundation said the athlete was part of a Trek4Mandela team hoping to summit to mark Mandela’s birthday, a day of volunteer service in South Africa. Authorities said they were climbing in support of girls from disadvantaged communities.
In his last Facebook post, Gugu Zulu on Saturday said:
“Am having flu like symptoms and struggling with the mountain but taking it step by step!! Today we managed to see our destination and our camp is literary above the clouds!!”
He was hiking with his wife, Letshego, who descended the 5,895-meter (19,340-foot) mountain with him, the foundation said.
South Africa’s sports ministry called Gugu Zulu a “great talented motorsport athlete who excelled on the race course.”
It’s abundance of grace and joy to a member of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, who after 29 years of marriage, waited and trusted God for the fruit of the womb.
The Good Lord finally visited her as He blessed Brother and sister Alale Timi Rose of RCCG FCT Province 8, Abuja with beautiful triplets!

Awwwn… I guess we won’t really be having chuckles on our faces anymore cause Senator Dino Melaye won’t be saying hysterical things again…
The Senator, says he has moved on after his row with Senator Oluremi Tinubu – he revealed this in an interview with Vanguard while reacting to Tinubu petitioning the IG of Police and alleging threat to life.
What he said:
“Great minds don’t dwell on issues, they act and move on. I have moved on” he said
A bride’s special day was left in disarray after the hotel CEILING caved in at her wedding reception.
The best man at Emily and Gary Parkin’s nuptials had a very near miss after the roof collapsed on his head.
Neil Parkin was left stunned after falling debris brought an abrupt end to his brother Gary’s big day, the Daily Record reports.
The 27-year-old looked on as Gary and Emily cut the cake at the Queen’s Hotel, in Dundee, on Saturday. But after a cluster of celebratory balloons were released, the ceiling came crashing down around guests in the ground floor reception room.
He said:
“I got plastered but not the way I wanted. I’ve still got a sore head and am a bit dizzy.
“I was outside taking a family portrait when I heard they were cutting the cake.
“I came back in and they had only just cut the cake when I got a smack on the back of the head.”
Gary’s dad Bill said:
“A fragmented slab of concrete came down from the floor above. I was at the bar but heard Neil had been hurt. I came in and saw him sitting as white as a ghost.
“We’d only been in the place 40 minutes – it was only just beginning to fill up. They’re both understandably gutted. The day was ruined by half past eight.”
Wife of U.S Presidential aspirant, Donald Trump, Melania Trump has put herself on a hot seat, after she plagiarized Michelle Obama‘s speech.
At the Republican National Convention on Monday night, Melanie plagiarized Michelle Obama’s speech to the Democratic National Convention in 2008.
Side-by-side comparisons of the transcripts show the text in Trump’s address following, nearly to the word, the first lady’s own from the first night of the Democratic convention in Denver nearly eight years ago.
The controversy quickly overshadowed the speech, which was to have been her introduction to voters. It focused on her immigration to the US and her love for her husband.
Melania Trump, Republican National Convention 2016:
“From a young age, my parents impressed on me the values that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say and keep your promise; that you treat people with respect. They taught and showed me values and morals in their daily life.
That is a lesson that I continue to pass along to our son, and we need to pass those lessons on to the many generations to follow.
Because we want our children in this nation to know that the only limit to your achievements is the strength of your dreams and willingness to work for them.”
Michelle Obama, Democratic National Convention 2008:
“…And Barack and I were raised with so many of the same values: that you work hard for what you want in life; that your word is your bond and you do what you say you’re going to do; that you treat people with dignity and respect, even if you don’t know them, and even if you don’t agree with them.
And Barack and I set out to build lives guided by these values, and pass them on to the next generation. Because we want our children—and all children in this nation—to know that the only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work for them.”
Earlier in the day, Melania Trump told NBC’s Matt Lauer:
“I read once over it, that’s all, because I wrote it … with (as) little help as possible.”
What is really going with our dear outspoken on air personality?? What could have prompted these apologies?? Is he alright??

A Brazilian woman has been accused of pedophilia on Facebook after a video of her twerking with a toddler went viral on the platform.
The clip of the athletic woman twerking with the laughing tot was shot in Rio de Janeiro before it was shared online. It remains unclear as to whether the woman in the video is the boy’s mother, however many viewers have taken that as face value – and made their shock clear.
The short videos show the young woman bent over with her son in a nappy hugging her from behind and laughing as she twerks.
The little boy moves his hips back and forth as he imitates her.
She’s certainly one of those celebrities who wouldn’t let a mirror pass them by unless they’ve taken a selfie with it and truth be told, she knows how to take em.
The beautiful media personality, who turned a year older few weeks ago, looks delectable as she dons a black and yellow floral print dress and a stunning golden hair.
You can’t be best friends with someone and not occasionally have a quarrel with them – it part of what defines the relationship, it’s what helps in making the relationship better, so you can sort out your differences and all.
Ghanaian actor and actress, John Dumelo and Yvonne Nelson, who are known to be best of friends(as they claim), had a quarrel for almost a year over politics.
This was after Yvonne begun a protest against shabby power supply in Ghana – a move Dumelo wasn’t in support of, which caused their fight. She deleted and blocked him on social media.
Moments ago, the beautiful actress, shared a video and photo of the both of them as they even shared a kiss. She wrote:
Even Politics couldn’t break us #bestfriend?
Yeah well, we’re back to their P.D.A which we can’t get enough of!

According to the user who knows the love birds very well, The lady pictured above (left) did this (right) to her boyfriend over an uncomfirmed allegation that he impregnated someone.
He shared photos of the both of them when things were going good and the man in the hospital after the attack, and wrote,
“Beware of whom you choose to be with. This is what a jealous girlfriend did to her boyfriend. Simply because she heard a rumour that he impregnated someone. Without finding out from the guy, She came to visit him on that evil day to pretend to pass the night. At midnight when he was asleep. She woke up, bleached red oil and poured it on the guy’s face and body. Then she ran away. She is nowhere to found. What a wicked heart. This is not tell me I tel you. I know them and I have seen them together having fun, playing, smiling and even eating together.”
A security guard of a public school in Lagos, Adeniyi Primary School, Itire, has shocked everyone with his criminal acts.
The 40-year-old man allegedly raped an eight-year-old pupil on the school premises. He has however been arrested for the act.
According to Punch Metro, the suspect, Friday Oshoba, aka Mopol, committed the alleged crime while the primary 2 pupil, Mercy (pseudonym), was waiting for her sister to pick her up after the school closed around 2pm.
Oshoba was said to have persuaded her to follow him to a deserted spot within the school and removed her underwear. He reportedly raped her afterwards.
It was gathered that a class five pupil, identified only as Bukola, who was sent on an errand by a schoolteacher, caught the guard in the act and reported to the teacher.
It was learnt that Mercy, on getting home, recounted the incident to her parents. An uncle of the girl followed her to the school the following day and reported the matter to the head teacher.
The head teacher was said to have invited policemen from the Itire division, leading to Oshoba’s arrest.
Mercy, in her statements to the police, said, “I was in the school on May 11 at about 2pm when Mopol (Oshoba) called me to a place on the school premises. He removed my underwear and put his thing (manhood) inside my bum-bum. Bukola, who is in primary five, saw us and reported to her teacher. I also told my daddy when I got home.”
The suspect, an indigene of Ekpoma, Edo State, denied raping the girl, saying he did not know her name. Oshoba was, however, silent in his statement on whether he took Mercy to any spot as alleged.
He said,
“The girl is one of our pupils in Adeniyi Primary School.
“I did not know her name, but I know she is in Primary two. I did not do anything with her. I was married, but my wife left me and I don’t have any child.”
However, a social worker at the Mirabel Centre, Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, where medical examinations were carried out on the victim, said Mercy had bruises in her private parts.
The worker, who spoke with our correspondent on condition of anonymity, said, “The result of the test conducted on the girl shows that she had bruises and fresh lacerations on her hymen. These suggest that the suspect forcefully penetrated her private parts as she claimed.”
Oshoba was subsequently brought before an Apapa Magistrate’s Court by a police prosecutor, Francisca Job, on one count of rape.
The charge read, “That you, Friday Oshoba, on May 11, 2016, at about 2pm, at Adeniyi Primary School, Itire, Lagos State, in the Apapa Magisterial District, did defile an eight-year-old girl… thereby committing an offence punishable under Section 137 of the Criminal Law of Lagos State, 2011.”
The defendant pleaded not guilty to the charge. The presiding magistrate, Mrs. A.O. Adegbite, admitted him to bail in the sum of N200,000 with two sureties in like sum.
Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari has claimed that he still has the overwhelming support of the Nigerian people despite the hard times the country is going through.
The President made this known during an interview with African Leadership, an African Magazine.
“Yes, I was elected by an overwhelming majority of Nigerians, and I am ever grateful for the opportunity I have been given to serve.
“However, I don’t consider the result of the so-called survey a slip in my public rating and acceptance. I appreciate the high expectations of Nigerians and as an administration we are working assiduously to deliver.
“We came in with a mantra of Change and the zeal to give a new lease of life to governance. Our zeal has remained the same and we are always prepared to make the difference.
“You will recall that when I was being sworn in, I emphasized that as a government, three key areas will be the priorities. The first is the need to rebuild the economy. I also pledged to fight insecurity while the third and equally important area is the fight against corruption.
“Nigeria will soon be back on track. Before now, we have been having sleepless nights in Nigeria with Boko Haram having field days in tormenting people, most especially in the North-Eastern part of the country. So far, we have shown resilience in stopping these people and yet many criticize the approach we are using.
“What I think our people should know is that a process of change is difficult as it requires endurance and patience. China, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and other great Asian countries had at different times passed through processes of change. They are far better off today.
“And some of these countries were at par with Nigeria in terms of development some five decades ago. We are attempting to do the same here to say let us stop building individuals, let us stop making those who serve in government get stupendously wealthy at the expense of ordinary Nigerians they had sworn to serve.
“Rather, we should concentrate on building strong institutions. Let us introduce economic prosperity by bringing on more investors to catalyze a sense of competition to grow our economy. Let there be law and order in our ways” the President said.
He however asked Nigerians, to “continue to exercise patience and let them know that we will not rest on our oars until we bring succor back to them and to the country. From our efforts so far.”
A young boy has been stabbed to death during a friendly street football match in Okota, Lagos after the match turned violent.
One of the players stabbed an opponent to death at the weekend when the misunderstanding started.
According to Vanguard, some youths from Oseni Liade Street were playing football at the end of the street, when a group of boys from neighbouring Taiwo Street came to join them. But the visiting youths were told to wait for their turn.
At the end of the first round, another set of players, among who were the visiting youths, were expected to take over the football pitch.
But eyewitnesses said they were disallowed, an action that degenerated into a fight. In the process, one of them, Kayode Babayanju, of 8, Taiwo Street, was alleged to have stabbed another youth, Michael Tanko, in the hollow of his left elbow.
Tanko, a Senior Secondary School 2 student of Hills International School, reportedly chased his assailant until he became dizzy and slumped. Unfortunately, he died moments before reaching the hospital he was rushed to.
Doctors at the hospital revealed that he bled to death, as the arteries in the hollow of the elbow were cut. Information at Vanguard’s disposal revealed that the deceased was an orphan, who came to live with his uncle in Lagos last year, after the demise of his only sibling.
When Vanguard visited the deceased’s home yesterday, his guardian, Mr. Oke Obi Odiaka, was still in shock. The mother of the fleeing assailant and her relatives came visiting at about 4p.m. Immediately the woman sighted the bereaved family, she went on her knees and begged in tears. However, the family insisted that they produce their fleeing son to the police.
Confirming the incident, Lagos State Police Command’s spokesman, Superintendent Dolapo Badmus, said: “Effort is being intensified to arrest the suspect who fled the scene immediately after committing the offence. The corpse has been deposited at the Isolo General Hospital morgue.”

With Nyra Nation’s Emma Nyra set to drop her debut EP “Love vs Money”, her management has decided to put out one track off the EP every Monday, starting with “WORK HARD” produced by Giggz.
Yesterday, Vera Sidika took to Instagram to publish her HIV test result, shutting down claims that she is positive. Also, the Kenyan socialite, accused her rival Huddah Monroe of threatening to have her killed.
According to Vera Sidika’s Snapchat/Instagram, the latest feud started after she returned from her China gig and Huddah started firing subs, assassinating her character on social media. Hence, Vera is shooting down one of the claims: that she is HIV positive.
The duo’s social media rivalry started way back in 2013 after Huddah took to Twitter to shade Vera Sidika. According to Nairobi Exposed, they used to be friends until they fell out, and since then have been throwing subliminals on social media.
In December, Huddah went on Snapchat to claim that she put down approximately N97million for a new home in Kenya, though she never shared photos of the place, and Vera would return in February to share photos of the new home she bought. You can read about that here.
Now, they are back on each other’s necks, and this time, Vera says she is taking the murder threats seriously.
See her Instagram rant:

Senator Oluremi Tinubu, today applied for Police Protection, following her recent spat with Dino Melaye.
In a letter dated July 18 and received same date by the office of the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, Mrs Tinubu said her life was no longer safe following her fight with Senator Melaye.
The letter entitled: Request for Police Protection’ reads:
“I am Senator Oluremi Tinubu, representing the Lagos Central Senatorial District of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
“During the proceedings of the Senate on Tuesday, July, 14, 2016, I had cause to contribute to a matter of national importance. Apparently dissatisfied with my contributions, Senator Dino Melaye threw caution to the winds, resorted to vulgar abuse of my person and wanted to assault me.
“It was the timely intervention of a number of colleagues which prevented Senator Melaye from unleashing physical attack on me. However, as the leadership of the Senate did not call him to order in the circumstance, he proceeded to threaten my life without any provocation whatsoever.
“In view of Senator Melaye’s antecedent particularly in the House of Representatives where a brawl led to the untimely death of a member, I have decided not to ignore his threat to my life. Therefore, I’m compelled to urge you to use your good offices to provide me with adequate security.
“Please accept the assurances of my regards and esteem.”
