Edwina was heavily pregnant when she was killed. The police is charging Shelby with three counts of first-degree murder.
According to authorities, the couple was sitting in the car when Shelby approached them and after arguing over a weave, she opened fire, killing Eddie on the spot.
Edwina was rushed to the hospital but she and her baby died..
Edwin was the co-owner of a hair extensions, hair and wigs business called VirginHair4US.com and Shelby was a customer.

According to police, the weave in dispute was not up to $100. Four lives wasted over a weave, sad!
Mavin Records Artiste – Korede Bello is without no single doubt one of the biggest names in the Nigerian Entertainment industry, and he continues to wows and entertain us.
In a recent interview with Saturday Beats, he spoke about his biggest song of his career and how it came about.
“Godwin was divinely a God project and I hope that God will bless my other works like he did Godwin. It was Don Jazzy that started the project and when he was half way, I joined him and we co-wrote the song together.
At that moment, the song was inspired by the beat. But before then, I had always wanted to do a song that would touch all demography and that everyone could relate to. I have always dreamed of having a song with a message that people would dance to in the clubs and the same song could be sung in church.
Godwin is the quickest song that we ever did. I have some songs in the studio that we recorded two years ago. It took us about three days to complete Godwin and within a week, the song was already out.
It was easy to get the lyrics because it is about everyday situations,” he said.

Former President Olusegun Obasanjo said the over 200 girls abducted by Boko Haram in Chibok, Borno State may never be found because their whereabout is unknown.
He stated this on Friday, February 5 while fielding questions during the Seventh Roundtable with Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, a programme organised by Obafemi Awolowo University Staff Club.
“The search for the abducted Chibok girls may not be fruitful. Nobody can bring back the girls because they are nowhere to be found.” he said.
Obasanjo blamed former President Goodluck Jonathan for ignoring the distress call to rescue the girls on the day they were abducted.
“The former president heard about the kidnap 8am in the morning of the abduction but failed to act until 72 hours later and by then it was too late.”
“Anyone saying the Chibok girls will return is telling lies, maybe some of them will return to tell their story.”
According to him, the best efforts to rescue the girls can yield is that few of the girls may be found.
He described the failure of the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) in the 2015 presidential election as a blessing to Nigeria.
Responding to a question posed to him about the constant fight between him and Prof. Wole Soyinka, Obasanjo described the playwright and Nobel laureate as a hunter rather than a political analyst.
“I will trust Wole Soyinka as an “aporo hunter” than trusting him as a political analyst. I have no ssue with him”

Sunday Amari, a 25-year old man brutally beaten by several Nigerian Army cadets in Abuja for complimenting a female army cadet, has given a full account of his ordeal.
SaharaReporters first released the video of the gruesome beating of the man, and the video quickly went viral.
In the video, a female cadet from the Nigerian Defense Academy (NDA) in Kaduna is seen slapping, smacking and kicking the victim, with other female and male cadets soon joining her to brutalize Mr. Amari.
In an interview today, Mr. Amari told SaharaReporters that the assault took place on December 31, 2014 at the Jabi Lake Park in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital, where he serves as a parks and recreation officer.
His account contradicts a claim by the Nigerian Defense Academy that the attack happened in Lagos. Mr. Amari stated that the cadets attacked and nearly killed him while he was at his duty post.
He disclosed that he was not the original victim of the violent cadets, who included two females and seven males.
According to him, the cadets’ first victim was another man seen at the end of the video.
He revealed that the cadets had brutalized the first victim to the extent that the man may have suffered serious brain or nerve damage.
Mr. Amari, who is fondly called “Sunny,” said the unruly cadets set upon him for fear that he might report their atrocities.
He said he was carrying out his duty of moving around the park to ensure that everything was in order when he saw the nine cadets around 4 p.m. beating up a civilian. He said he walked towards the cadets and their victim out of curiosity.
According to him, the cadets then beckoned on him and asked why he was looking at them. Before he could speak, they descended on him and gave him a brutal beating even as he pleaded with them that he was a recreation officer at the park.
He revealed that at least five of the cadets participated in beating him until he passed out.
He said he was left for dead, adding that a kind stranger took pity on him and conveyed him to the hospital where he spent a week recuperating from his serious injuries.
Mr. Amari, who hails from Opoko local government area of Benue State, said he had reported the assault to the cadets’ director, a retired military officer, who told him nothing could be done since his attackers were military cadets.
The Nigerian Defense Academy (NDA) in Kaduna has issued a series of tweets claiming that the assault happened in Lagos while the cadets were on break, adding that the affected cadets would be punished.
The NDA did not respond to emails from SaharaReporters seeking information on the identities of the cadets who took part in the horrifying beating of Mr. Amari.
Star Boy Entertainment artiste Damilola Afolabi popularly known as L.A.X came onto the music scene with a bang in 2014 when he dropped his hit single Ginger which featured Wizkid.
After that, nothing was heard from the 23-year-old artiste for a while, until last year when he dropped his second single Open and Close.
Now the singer is revealing why he hasn’t collaborated with Wizkid on any song lately.
In an interview with Saturday Beats, the singer stated that though he was still signed to Star Boy, he was working on creating his own brand.
He also said that he already had over 60 songs recorded and started dropping them last year until he realised he was being called ‘Wizkid’s boy’ by fans. ‘
‘When I started dropping my own songs, I realised people began to say things like I am Wizkid’s boy. They were calling me Wizkid’s kid” he stated.
”Wizkid is an amazing artist and everybody knows that, but I am trying to create my own brand so that people will know LAX for who LAX is.
I am not Wizkid’s boy or his kid and that is why we haven’t been working together a lot recently but we have recorded many songs together.”
Last October, the duo appeared to have put aside their differences when Wizkid took to Instagram to publicly support L.A.X on his European tour after side lining him for months.
Honorable Patrick Obahiagbon wrote on his official Facebook page:
The OKIKIOLAKAN’s avuncular gesture of humility devoid of his De Die In Diem obtrusivity and obstreperousness is deservable of both eulogies and panegyrics and I am consensus ad idem with him that the Ooni of Ife is a non pareil epiphanic emblematization of an avatar seised of a sui generis Heirophantic mission….I wish this Ooni well and may the Celestial choir and Cosmic hosts grant him good health, peace profound,intrepidity,mental and spiritual discernment as he holds aloft his incandescent flambeau….God bless the Ooni….

A Bradford-based Ghanaian couple has unbelievably upset odds of 500,000 to one by giving birth to their third consecutive set of twins.
Abigail Narkie Adama, 30, gave birth to the baby girls who join a pair of 4-year-olds and a pair of 18-month-old twins in the family.
Mrs Adama and her husband Shaibu Abu-Adama, also 30, said they were astounded when they found out they were expecting another set of twins.
While making the announcement on Facebook, Shaibu said:
“Not sure if I was counting 1,2,3 or doing a 3 & 2 sign for 3rd February… but sure know I was excited this morning as Abbie and I welcomed our THIRD set of TWINS!
YES. THIRD SET OF FRATERNAL TWINS!!! Mother and daughters are doing great! We’re still pleasantly surprised and shocked but definitely an enjoyable blessing.
We give thanks… to the God who makes the impossible possible and does as He pleases, the Creator who creates how He chooses, and the Father who blesses beyond measure – “pressed down, shaken together and running over”.
All thanks to thee. Congrats Narkie, an angels-bearing Angel.
The power of social media can never be underestimated -as confirmed in this story once again.
President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya, was present today at a wedding ceremony between two citizens from different tribes -Chemeli Chumo and Kevin Oduor. The couple met through Facebook, according to Chemeli (the bride).
Below is what she said on her website;
Kevin and I met on a mutual friends wall on Facebook in 2009 ( Social media – Changing lives since the new millennium! ) I met him in person a few weeks later when another mutual friend brought him over to my house for drinks.( I wonder if that was a coincidence.
We were just friends and travel buddies for a long time until we decided to ‘give it a try’. Kevin proposed on my birthday in May 2015 over dinner and I was rendered,for the first time, completely speechless.There were lots of tears.Tears of joy.
Kendrick Lamar seems slated to introduce N.W.A into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
The Hall announced the list of artists to induct the Rap group and the other acts in the Class of 2016, Pigeons and Planes reports.
Although the Hall does not identify which artist is introducing which inductee, it makes sense that Lamar will introduce Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, Eazy-E, DJ Yella and MC Ren at the official induction ceremony April 8 at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
The ‘Alright’ rapper records for Dr. Dre’s Aftermath Entertainment, has been open about the Compton, California group’s influence on his career and interviewed members of the group for Billboard.
He also appears at the end of the N.W.A biopic, Straight Outta Compton.
The other musicians announced as introducing the inductees are Metallica’s Lars Ulrich, the Black Keys and Matchbox Twenty’s Rob Thomas.
We can’t say for sure that they are about the fame and all, but while Record Label CEOs like Davido, Don Jazzy, Olamide and more are in the spotlight, there are other top notch Record Label chiefs who aren’t about the spotlight but rather prefer to see things fall in place as they make decisions from their office seats that has a lot to the music that we groove to from our singers.
Without further ado, YBL takes a look at some record label executives that are presumably not interested in fame but rather fortunes.
1. Segun Demuren.
Kick-starting the list is the man who makes final decisions at the Empire Mates Entertainment group, the former record label of singers, Wizkid and Skales.
Segun is also the chief source of funds and son of billionaire, Harold Segun Demuren, who was the Director General of the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority for 8 years. (December 2005 to March 2013).
The gentleman is also prime at EAN Aviation, the first fully integrated FBO and maintenance facility in Lagos, Nigeria.
His younger brother, Tunde Demuren recently got married media personality, Toolz Oniru.
From music to movies, to talk shows hosting and even sports, there are a lot of Nigerians, who have carved a niche for themselves internationally in these various sectors.
It definitely isn’t easy to blend in in a foreign land and even become a celebrity there… it’s gon take hard work! What’s good about this article is the fact that we actually have a handful of celebrities who hail from Nigeria and are recognized internationally as stars.
As it’s the first weekend of the love month, how about we spice it up with a few of these celebrities who have actually made a name for themselves internationally.
These stars actually hail from Western Nigeria which is referred to as “Yorubaland“.
So how about you take a cue from me and grab a bottle of coke and buttered pop corn as we take a look at these stars in the next couple of pages.
Happy weekend folks!
