Mavin Records act, Reekado Banks, was recently interviewed by HipTV, where he talked about his relationship with YBNL act, Lil Kesh.
When asked about his relationship with the ‘Efejoku’ crooner, Reekado said they are not close friends, but have a cordial relationship.
He said:
We weren’t the closest of friends like close, close, close. It wasn’t like we talked everyday but we talked once in a while. He called me once in a while. I called him once in a while. And same as now, it still happens that way. There’s nothing really that has changed.
Lil Kesh – Headies
Recall, Reekado Banks win at the just concluded Headies Award, started the war of words between Don Jazzy and Olamide. A fight which has since been resolved.
A supposed man of God who is the General Overseer (GO), of a pentecostal church located at the Oworonshoki area of Lagos State, has been arrested for allegedly luring an 11-year-old girl to a brothel in the area and raping her, Daily Post reports.
According an eyewitness, the pastor who is very popular in the area, had, on Saturday, January 23, lured the girl to the brothel where he forcefully had carnal knowledge of her and it was screams of pains that attracted some of the prostitutes resident in the brothel.
The scarlet ladies were said to have rushed to the room but found it locked and alerted policemen from the Alonge Police Division.
The policemen thereafter, forced the door of the room opened where they found the girl in a pool of her blood and the GO who was half naked trying to clean her up.
The man was arrested but two days later, he was released by the police, causing outrage and pandemonium in the community as residents rose enmasse to protest the release of the pastor who is said to have earlier raped three young girls in the area and had been left off the hook each time.
— Popular Ghanaian witch doctor, Priest Nana Kwaku Bonsam, has had a ‘war’ with popular Nigerian Prophet, TB Joshua, at least once in the last two years
— Priest Nana Kwaku Bonsam says he backs up over 1,700 African preachers ‘spiritually’
Prophet TB Joshua who is the founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations (SCOAN), has come under fire several times for allegedly hiring people to pretend to be sick and disabled and then claim to heal them during his prayer meetings.
Kwaku Bonsam, who operates from a shrine at Sa-Peiman, a village on the outskirts of Nsawam in east Ghana, is assumed to be a very strong witch doctor who is also called ‘Devil of Wednesday’.
Apparently, this Ghanaian priest is said to be very powerful, that he has claimed he’s the ‘spiritual father’ of some of the most powerful preachers in Africa.
Here’s what the priest had to say:
“Over 1, 700 pastors and so called men of God from different parts of Africa have approached me, seeking powers to perform miracles, including Prophet T.B Joshua from Nigeria. He is my boy. I challenge him to come out and deny this. Apart from the pastors, many prominent business people and celebrated church founders in Africa frequent my shrine for my services and if they deny, I am going to name them.”
Kwaku Bonsam went on to say that his god is called Kofi-Kofi, and he fortifies him with supernatural powers which he in turn provides to pastors across Africa.
The question is, why would he choose to threaten to expose his ‘dedicated’ patrons?
The crisis currently being witnessed in the Nigerian entertainment industry is taking a new turn as the day goes by and while some issues are being put to rest, some are beginning to come up.
Latest of such issues has been the allegation of song theft between Blackface and 2Baba and Wizkid.
Blackface who has been in the news lately over the allegation feels 2Baba whom they have been together from day one is not treating him fairly after making hits with some of his works.
Not being specific about some of the songs, during an interview with TVC morning programme, Your View, where he was a celebrity guest, the singer stated that he does not want anything from 2Baba but just simple acknowledgment either from him or any other person using his works.
In his words, “2face feels I am someone you can trample upon. I am one person that have thought these guys how to be a good song writer and thought them the rudiments of music, yet they will just see one as nothing.
I am not expecting anything from 2face just simple credits. Just like when Kennis music signed him, they did ‘African Queen’ and I was not given credit and that took them time.”
Blackface was later advised that rather than continually have issues with artistes over song theft, he should rather make it a business whereby he writes and give the likes of Omawumi to sing but he was not comfortable with the idea as he cleared the air that he is not a freelance writer.
“No. There are people we call freelance writer and I am not such a person. I have people I am writing for and then I know we have an agreement together so I can’t just write song for anybody,” he added.
Blac Chyna who of course has been trending this week for being linked to Rob Kardashian was arrested on Friday Evening after allegedly getting wasted and becoming belligerent during a flight from Los Angeles, California to Austin, Texas on her way to London.
According to TMZ…
Chyna was busted in the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport Friday afternoon. Cops tells us … when the plane landed they were there and met her at the gate.
She stormed toward the gate for a connecting flight and an eyewitness says she screamed at an airline employee, “Nasty ass bitch.”
That was enough for cops, and they arrested her on the spot.
An eyewitness tells TMZ, Chyna appeared “heavily intoxicated” on the plane and was “fighting” with a flight attendant, acting “like a drunken fool.”
Another eyewitness says, at one point she screamed, “Y’all got no respect for me. I gotta tie my shoes. Let me tie my Yeezys.”
She’d just taken off a few hours earlier from LAX aboard a Delta flight … her final destination was London with a layover in Austin.
An eyewitness tells us, Chyna was handcuffed and crying as she was taken away.
Chyna was in jail at the time of this post. She was booked for public intoxication.
Controversial singer, CharlyBoy doesn’t need any further introduction as he has made a great impact in Nigeria Entertainment industry. And besides him and his success is a very strong and influential woman, Lady Di.
It is not by luck that the pair are still very much in the picture together and rocking it after 37 years.
Charly Boy shared an open letter to Lady Di on her birthday today, January 29, 2016, professing his love? for her life and also showering her accolades.
“My Dearest Diane, Like joke like joke we both are getting older. Today is your birthday and once again I can’t help but to celebrate you in the open, what I have always done for the past 37yrs of our married life. Celebrating our extraordinary life together. I hope that our togetherness over the years have taught some people about perseverance, tolerance, discipline and love. You know our marriage has not been a bed of roses like that, but we have stayed loyal together through all kinds of terrible weather, never strayed, through all the challenges, battling so many winches and wizards, through tick and thin, even in poverty and great hopelessness. I have been our soldier, protecting this fragile thing called marriage. E no easyooooooooo. Thank you for standing by me through all my bullshit, my ignorance and my mood swings, the fact is that I can never live with anyone like me but you have managed to survive 37yrs of me. Sometimes am not sure I deserve you, some other times I feel I could have done better or you could have done better. However, I trust that you have the stomach to still tolerate us for another 37yrs.”
He also gave her Kudos for been the bedrock of their blissful union after he had recorded 3 failed marriages.
“Frankly, after 3 failed marriages, so many krugeegee waka, I think God did indeed bless me with you. You know it’s not all the time that I will be sweet and romantic like you would like me to be, because sometimes my eyes dey see pepper for this nonsensical environment. However, one thing you can take to the bank is that am serving “Life” with you. You have taught me that marriage isn’t about how compatible couples are but how they deal with their incompatibility. You are one of the things in my life that I got right, my ultimate merit badge. I know what your life here means to me, it’s been like a blessing sent from God that I can truly see. God through you has shown me who I need to be. Thank you my wife and a very Happy BirthDay to you, may we never grow old. If no be YOU, Na who. Your Loyal Mugu( for life ) Charly,” he wrote.

I guess Nollywood Actress, Chioma Chukwuka Akpotha wasn’t brewing for trouble afterall.
The star actress has finally come out to clear the air on a tweet by her that was apparently “misquoted” due to the “Hashtags” she added.
According to her, she wasn’t throwing shade at fellow actresses Uche Jombo, Omoni Oboli, Blessing Egbe, Ufuoma McDermott and producer Emem Isong.
She explained that she meant no harm and was misunderstood by all. She posted a tweet this morning saying what she meant was that you don’t necessarily have to be related by blood to be called sisters.
Read her tweets below:
Ufuoma Mcdermott and Omoni Oboli have accepted her explanation:
As reactions continue to trail the gruesome murder of a 4-year-old girl by her mother in Gboko area of Benue State, IDOMA VOICE has obtained the image of the face behind the cruel act.
The victim whose identity was given as Mercy was until the ugly incident a resident of Tomamyiin, Akaajime, Gboko East (Behind Princess Adejo international college).
A resident said the woman who is currently at large killed her 4-year-old daughter, tied her in a sack bag and dumped her inside a well.According to a testimony of a neighbour who witnessed the the incident, the body of the late infant was discovered when children wanted to fetch from the well.
The eyewitness said this gruesome act was suspected to have been committed in the early hours of Monday or Sunday night after which the murderer travelled to an undisclosed destination early on Monday.
While singer, Wizkid, is busy planning to have kids with various ladies and troubled relationships, his ex-girlfriend, Sophie Rammal, who of course has moved on long time ago has recently gotten married.
Wizkid and Sophie were an item during his early days in the music industry until his rise to fame turned things around.
Sophie and Wizkid – Holla at your boy Music Video
She was featured in his first single, ‘Holla at Your boy.’ The news of her marriage was made known by actor & politician, Desmond Elliot, who shared the picture of Sophie from her engagement ceremony.
Desmond wishing her happy married life made it known that she will now be addressed as Mrs Alakija.
While fans of singer Oritse Femi, were busy in one form of activities recently, some seems to have missed the drama that played out between the singer and his ex-girlfriend, Blessing Rawa.
It all began when Oritse Femi shared a picture of himself reading the book on ‘The Rise of ISIS’ and then warned fans to be careful of the kind of people they call friends.
In his word, “Life is kind of like a party. You invite a lot of people, some leave early; some stay all night, some laugh with you, some laugh at you, and some show up late. But in the end, after the fun, there are a few who stay to help you clean up the mess. And most of the time they aren’t even the ones who made the mess. These people are your real friends. They are the ones who matter.”
But one can never imagine that he was directing at anyone especially his ex until Blessing immediately made a mockery of the singer’s write-up by stating that “The look you give a fake friend that just talked about how “Having Real Friends is what matter.”
Probably Oritse Femi’s attention was called to it and the fun diss began as the singer continued with “you don’t lose friends because real friends can never be lost. You lose people masquerading as friends.”
Blessing will rather keep quiet being the woman she is as she replied with “and I hope your greed and abuse, etc won’t send the real ones away.”
26 year old Jeremiah Owojori, His pregnant wife, Ashley, their 5 year old & seven month old son all dies in a tragic fire incident at their home at 201 Coleman Str. in West Monroe, Louisiana, USA.
This is coming few weeks after a Nigerian grandfather Sampson Omogbo and his wife Carolyn, died in a house-fire alongside their 2 year old twin grand children at their home in USA.
The sad incident occurred on Sunday January 24th.
Men of the state fire service say bad wiring in their home is most likely the cause of the fire. The Owojori’s were all in critical state when men of the state fire service arrived their home and took them to the hospital.
They were all placed on life support, where they all eventually died. Jeremiah died yesterday evening. So sad!
In an Op-Ed for Time, Amber Rose poured out her heart like never seen before.
She wrote on having to endure the judgement of others and constantly explaining herself. She revealed she has gotten over caring what people think and has chosen instead to just be herself. She wrote the piece a day after her tweet fight with Kanye.
Read below:
“Ever since high school, I’ve been called a slut. All the boys were attracted to me—that wasn’t my fault! Then, when I started getting famous, the shaming got even worse.
All these messed up stories came out about me, and I was like, “That’s not true! I’m not that kind of girl!” But even things I had done—things a man would never be judged for—got me lots of hate.
After my ex-husband Wiz Khalifa and I got a divorce, I’d go out for a date at a restaurant like any normal single human and people would say, “Man, she’s such a ho. She’s out at restaurants with guys.” Then they would see my ex-husband with a bunch of women. They would say, “He’s the man! That’s so cool.”
So when I went on a date, I’m a whore, and when he’s piling girls in a car, he’s the man? There’s something wrong here.
It wasn’t just men saying these types of things. There were a lot of women saying hateful things to me. I was getting torn down constantly. But in the past year, I’ve just started not caring.
People would actually say things like, “Who would ever love you? You were a stripper. Why are you in relationships?” And I used to feel like I had to explain that maybe it was because I’m a good person.
But I realized that I can’t make everyone believe. And I can’t talk to everyone and tell them who I really am. They’re still going to have their own opinions. If you know me, you love me. If you don’t know me, you might love me, but you might not—and that’s cool. And you know what? Now I sleep like a baby at night.
It wasn’t even that hard to stop caring what other people thought. I wasn’t married, and I didn’t have a boyfriend so I didn’t have to care about anyone else’s feelings or protect anyone’s heart. I thought, “This is my life. This is about me. If you don’t like it, I don’t care. I’m going to do anything and everything I want with my own life.”
What I’ve realized is that, when you care too much, you’re not living at your full potential. When you really stop caring about what people say, that’s when you really start living. It’s such an amazing feeling. It’s about loving who you are, owning who you are and knowing that it’s O.K. to live your life how you want to live it. We’re all human, which means we’re not all perfect. It’s so cool to think that I might help women think about who they want to be and then encourage them to be that person with no remorse. I want to help women just be happy in their own skin.
So please: Before you judge someone—especially another woman—put yourself in her shoes and also look at your past. That’s what a lot of women fail to do. They’re so quick to call another girl names, but it’s like: You know what? There may have been a time where you looked back and said, “I probably shouldn’t have done that.” Does that make you a ho? No, it makes you a human.”
I personally was waiting on the Falz diss track Vic O promised his fans which he slated for January 7th.
Apparently, I was disappointed when the controversial rapper wasn’t able to fulfill his end.
Recall some weeks back, Vic O, had a falling out with fellow rap artiste, Falz and according to him, he was pissed when Falz mentioned his diss track for Drake and Meek Mill as the second most controversial story for the year 2015.
A really pained and disappointed Vic O went ranting on twitter threatening to destroy his carer with a diss track I stated in the beginning of this article. Don’t wait for it, He failed to deliver.
Fast forward to 2 days ago, Vic O, was interviewed on Wazobia TV’s ‘Talk Talk’ where he revealed that Falz, threatened him when they met at Olamide’s concert.
He added that the later categorically promised to deal with him as well.
Vic O, further said that Falz could not look him in the face while at the concert. He promised to still release the diss track if Falz does not come and apologize to him personally.

In an article titled ‘Crude Tactics’, Economist magazine described former president Jonathan as an ineffectual buffoon. The article reads in parts:
“In the eight months since Mr Buhari arrived at Aso Rock, the presidential digs, the homicidal jihadists of Boko Haram have been pushed back into the bush along Nigeria’s borders.
The government has cracked down on corruption, which had flourished under the previous president, Goodluck Jonathan, an ineffectual buffoon who let politicians and their cronies fill their pockets with impunity.
Lai Mohammed, a minister, reckons that just 55 people stole $6.8 billion from the public purse over seven recent years.”
A lady Victoria Alaegbu, has been exposed for using charms on her fiancé, Prince Hillary Unachukwu and later running away with his $1.5million (N295.5 million).
Vitoria was said to have administered a “noxious” substance on Prince Hillary last December in Ikoyi, Lagos. The substance knocked him out between 8pm and midnight and gave her enough time to steal his money and she went ahead to lock the Prince inside his house.
Prince Hillary woke up when the charm wore off and shouted for help.
Victoria has been arrested by the police. She was arraigned on Wednesday at an Igbosere Magistrates Court in Lagos on a 5-count charge of conspiracy, attempt to kill, stealing, unlawful detention, etc.
Prosecutor, Sergeant Nicholas Akpene said she locked the Prince up inside his apartment with a padlock.
Victoria also had a SIM card with number 07087773669, which was not registered in her name.
The non-registration of her SIM card was with intent to commit fraud. She denied the charges.
Magistrate S. K. Matepo granted Victoria bail in N5million with two sureties in the like sum.
She ordered that the sureties must swear to an affidavit of means and show evidence of tax payment. One of the sureties must be her relation. The case was adjourned till February 10 for trial.
Prince Hillary said he could not believe his eyes that a lady he wanted to marry to could do such to him.
Tyga who was once engaged to Blac Chyna and shares a child with her finally addressed the news that his ex, Blac Chyna, is dating Rob Kardashian.
The rapper——isn’t letting Chyna’s new relationship with Kylie Jenner’s older brother get to him, taking the high road when it comes to his feelings about the situation.
When asked for his opinion on the controversial romance while leaving a friend’s house in Los Angeles on Wednesday, Tyga simply responded, “Everybody deserves to be happy.”
This type of non-reactive approach is exactly how Kylie has also decided to respond to the situation.
Kylie obviously doesn’t think the relationship between Chyna and her brother concerns her and is concetrating on her lip kit business.
Yesterday, Amber Rose blasted Kanye West after he attacked her ex Wiz Khalifa on twitter and made comments about her son with Wiz Khalifa.
Amber said she got involved because Kanye mentioned her son. Below are some of the things she supposedly said on a podcast that will be released on iTunes Friday.
Amber says kids are off limits and that shows your character. Kids are innocent babies and u never talk about them.
Amber said she is not surprised Kanye would say that cuz she knows him. “He is a fucking clown”. She said last week Kanye came out with a song saying her son is her meal ticket and she didn’t say anything cuz he is a cornball.
She added that Kanye calls her a stripper and what not but took her around the world and they dated for 2 years. “He still talks about me in songs, he still talks about me all day”.
When Amber was asked about the fingers in booty, she said: “Dont talk about my kid, thats all i gotta say”,
She would never had said anything if Kanye didnt mention her kid. She would have kept it cute if it was Wiz and Kanye only- Second time this week Kanye has talked about her baby.
