Mrs Funmilayo Osunla the snail seller had thought that any effort put into retaining Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, as customer might not materialize for obvious reasons.

Governor Akeredolu, being a loyal customer turned up today at Iya Dare's shade after a long break. It was indeed a miracle of her life to have the governor's convoy pull up to patronise her business.

There was a deep embrace between the two, but the most important aspect of the meeting again is the physical empowerment that will come her way.

Kofi Okyere Darko Has Been Slammed By Yvonne Okoro For Congratulating John Dumelo Over Marriage

Posted: 12 May 2018 03:02 AM PDT

Kofi Okyere Darko, Ghanaian journalist, has congratulated Nollywood/Ghallywood actor, John Dumelo over his marriage move.

However the Journalist has been slammed by 'angry' actress, beautiful Yvonne Okoro. Kofi has in his Facebook post, said; "had wondered why men in the public eye settle for quiet, unknown ladies and not the ones all over. According to him, this could be a lesson to 'sisters'."

The actress, slammed the journalist for that statement, whom she said could have congratulated the couple without needlessly disparaging other women.

See what she wrote in her words below;

Kofi, @nineteen57bykod you could have congratulated the couple without needlessly denigrating other women. Who a man chooses to be with is a matter of personal preference and vice versa for women too. As you clearly believe that women should make all their life choices with marriage always being at the forefront of their minds, you should preach the same to men.

I pray that young women would be raised to believe that they can achieve their dreams(working hard, and being KNOWN)and being also the perfect bride for some man one day, this goes for the man too.

PS-A quiet and unknown woman does not equate a happy and successful marriage. I know many KNOWN women that are working hard and are all over the place yet great wives and mothers too!!

Happy marriage @johndumelo1.See you soon!



Lover boy and Ghanaian actor John Dumelo is set to marry his girlfriend known as Mawunya somewhere in Spintex this weekend.

Sources claim that Mawunya who is very close to Nadia Buari, was linked to John Dumelo through the actress. The event will kick off with a traditional marriage ceremony on Saturday at the bride to be family house in Spintex, followed by a white wedding on Sunday.

"I Was Forced To Make Music I Don’t Like" – Davido Talks About Sony Music & ‘Son Of Mercy’ EP

Posted: 12 May 2018 02:00 AM PDT

After getting whooping deal with Sony Music sometime in 2016 he decided to part ways with the music company due to reasons he described as "I was forced to make music he doesn't like"

While speaking recently in an interview with Native Magazine, Nigerian super star Afropop singer, David Adeleke popularly known as Davido disclosed that he had to stop recording the type of songs Sony Music wanted because they did not resonate with him.

Commenting on his 2016 extended playlist, 'Son of Mercy' which was released by Sony, the DMW CEO, said he did not pick the songs that made the EP. He rubbished the EP and noted that he recorded it at a time when he was struggling for hit records.

He said; "Nah, the EP was s**t. The songs were not picked by me, I wasn't in the right place.
"I knew myself. I was like, 'this is not Davido'. My career has always been on fire at all times, ['till then] there was never a time that I didn't have a hit out, and that time I didn't have a hit.
"So, I called Sony up, and I told them look, you have to let me do what I want to do. That's what inspired Back to Basics. First, I had to stop making the music that they (SONY) wanted me to make.
"So, I came back to Nigeria to record a couple of songs. That's when I recorded 'IF' with Tekno."

Davido also said something on how the Omo Baba Olowo (OBO) image, a Yoruba word for son of a rich man, made life harder for him.
He said"They always have this feeling that like…[because] your daddy has money. In my head, I'm like, I didn't' t choose my Dad, I am his son. I came into the world like anyone else."

The invitation was announced by the Catholic Archbishop of Lagos, Most Rev. Alfred Adewale Martins, in an interview with the Vatican News (the mouthpiece of the Holy City).

He said: "Oh yes! We're looking forward to seeing him. Yes, we did invite him and of course, as expected, he couldn't give us a response then but we hopeful he would react to that. If he does come, it will not only strengthen the people, it will also encourage the people to be able to cope with these different challenges."
Even though, the Catholic spiritual head had not responded to the invitation to visit Nigeria, Most Rev. Martins noted that the Pope was concerned about the killings going on in the country.
Martins said: "Well, of course, we also asked him what message he wanted us to take back home as a message to our people.
"He said we should be courageous, particularly with regards to the recent troubles with the terrorists that masquerade as herdsmen.

"He told us to tell our people that he is with us in spirit and he is with us praying for us; that whatever it is that is possible in order to ameliorate the situation, he is willing to journey with us. We thought that was very good."
