New Reports: D'banj Too Broke To Pay Staff Salaries

It's no longer rumor that the Koko Master is going through some financial challenges.

Despite being a multiple brand ambassador and investing in agriculture, new reports claims D'banj is too broke that, he can't afford to pay his staff and some are forced to quit.

A reliable source told Encomium magazine that;
“D’Banj and some of his workers are at loggerheads over unpaid salaries. Chu-Chu and Moses have already been withdrawn from his his management now. Things are no longer at ease for the Koko Master."

Last year, news filtered in that the artist might be sued for unpaid debt of over $240,000. A company MindHub Technology headed by one Henry Ojogho claimed he's still owing the company yet another N15million. 

MindHub had treathened to drag the Koko master to court this month, January if he failed to clear his debt.

Interestingly, D'banj has maintained a disturbing silence over his debt scandal. The much he had said was in a tweet; "Silence…Hear (sic) is my response to the false rumours."

His silence has given credence to speculations that he is going through financial stress. His visibility during the yuletide and releasing a single, has not changed this perception.

Sammie Okposo Says Buhari Should Be Flogged For Forging His Certificate


After Gen. Buhari's WASC result was released by Government Secondary School, Kastina, the news went viral on the internet.
The result showed that, he obtained 5 credits in English, Hausa Language and others.

Now, popular Gospel artist, Sammie Okposo has come out to say the result was forged.
According to him, only Western regions offered a local language as a course in WASC, as at that time(1961).
From perjury to forgery: buhari or whoever forged that certificate needs to be flogged. prior to the formation of a central govt by gowon, all regions had separate curriculums. only the western region offered a local language in both their curriculum and wasc! it was after a central govt was formed and a universal educational curriculum was developed and adopted which included other local languages in 1974! so which wasc did buhari write in 1961 that included Hausa?"

Its True! Samsung Wants To Acquire Blackberry


Last went viral last week that Samsung was planning to acquire BlackBerry, in a deal worth $7.5 billion. Apparently, this was good news as BlackBerry stock rose with as much as 30% to close at $12.60, their highest level since 2012.

However, their stock came crashing back to 18%, when BlackBerry released an official statement to deny the reports.

Well, it turns out that the reports is true. Financial Post reports that despite the statement denying the rumors, the two companies are indeed in private take-over talks according to a reliable source.
A document obtained by the Financial Post, prepared for Samsung by New York-based independent investment bank Evercore Partners, outlines the case for, and the potential structure of a possible purchase of BlackBerry.
According to reports, the two companies were planning to break the news after and agreement is reached, until the news was leaked by Reuters. This caught Samsung off guard due to its informal nature and BlackBerry was forced to deny the claims.  Negotiation is still on going.
 “Samsung is still evaluating their options. So it’s still very much an open deal. Samsung hasn’t walked away” from an acquisition. “They’re leaning towards it.”
If acquisition goes through, Samsung will have access to BlackBerry portfolio of enterprise product and services patent.

Buhari's Certificate Is Forged - PDP Insist


Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organization(PDPPCO) have said the certificate and statement of result of  Gen. Muhammadu Buhari is not authentic. 

The Director of Media and Publicity of the organization, Femi Fani-Kayode said this, at a press conference in Abuja on Thursday.

He said; “Our conclusion from all these is that the document purportedly released by the Government College (Pilot) Katsina, upon which the APC presidential candidate hopes to bury the doubt about his eligibility for next month’s election is forged, manipulated and fraudulently procured. It is therefore untenable in fact and in law.”
“We do not know who the authors and masterminds of this forgery are but whoever they are, we urge them to come forward and be identified. If they fail to come forward voluntarily, we hereby call on the police and other security agencies to seek them out, find them, arrest them, interrogate them and prosecute them, in accordance with the laws of the land.”
According to him, having carefully studied  the statement of result which was signed by the school principal and examination officer of the government college, Katsina, the organization believed that the result was far from genuine.
 “The result sheet which was attributed to the Cambridge examination body is clearly a super imposition of one document on another, as you will shortly see in the enlarged image of the result sheet as published. The column lines on the part where names are printed do not align with the blank columns while there is an introduction of extraneous lines on some other columns.”
 “The document contains an obvious alteration on the Mathematics column of the candidate, Mohamed Buhari, who was assumed to have scored an ‘F’ in the subject. This raises a very fundamental issue of validity in view of the fact that the accompanying result sheet states that ‘any alteration or erasure renders this statement of result invalid. This is the standard practice in all interpretation of documents, especially academic records. The question we put to Gen. Buhari and his party is whether this alteration was done by the University of Cambridge.”
Meanwhile, PUNCH Newspaper spoke with the principal of the school, Isyaku Bello who revealed that the certificate was indeed genuine.

He said;“If they are doubting the result, then they should come and see the authentic copy and not the photocopy sent to us by the Cambridge West Africa School. We are here waiting for anybody doubting what we have sent out. We are not running away. Let them come and found out.”

Don’t marry for sex, don’t marry because you are of age.
don’t marry because you are getting old,
don’t marry because you are lonely, don’t marry
because you need someone to support you
financially, don’t marry because you mistakenly got pregnant.
don’t marry because you don’t want to
lose the person, don’t marry because of family
pressures, don’t marry because you like the idea of marriage and admire every wedding gown you see.
don’t marry because all your friends are getting
married.
But get married because you are in love, get married cos he or she is your best friend and when that love is no more , he or she can still make u smile…..#somedayiwillgetmarried.

Comedian Ali Baba Writes On Why Successful People Are Hated On


Veteran comedian, Ali Baba took to his Instagram to write on why successful people are being hated on.
See what he wrote after the cut....

What I have come to notice & realized in life, is that, Dangote, will not be concerned with whether Ali Baba made 2 million & Brags about it. Been there done more! Usain Bolt will not even be bothered if an 18 year old clocked 9.7secs in an inter house sports competition in Akure! People who pick up things others say, & pour their venom on same, are the people such things that have been said or to whom such 
things concern. 

I have noticed a lot of people just look for any hint of what is good out there & from their exalted bad position, lash out on the good. Which is why, someone who does not have, hate the person who does. 

And nothing the person who has what they don’t, says, can convince them that he/she deserved the good things such LUCKY BASTARDS has and they don’t. Recall the story of the woman who wanted the baby split in half, but King Solomon’s wisdom prevailed? Exactly!!! The reason so many people are bitter about other people’s success or good life, it’s because they don’t have it! Period! You cannot carry an elephant on your head & be hunting rats!

So whenever I post anything on my platform, those who wished they had a tenth of what God has given me, the opportunities, the second chances, the in spite of all success, recognition, family, kids, FAVOUR, fame & goodwill, will always say, “let him shut up! Who is he? What right does he have to speak? What effrontery? Enough already? Who does he think he is? As if we don’t know him? Look who is talking?… Blah blah blah” Guess what?

Some of these people worship in churches that their pastors have records that makes me a saint with my all errors! Should I name names?Yet they worship in the same churches pastured, sorry pastored by these my colleagues! It’s interesting to note that people who like to hang people to dry are the same people who secretly wish they had it as good as you do! In fact, it kills them to know that they are far from your point of happiness, or are convinced they won’t make it near by a foot! So what do they do? They hate you! And all that has to do with you. 

They even try to recruit others on this “rubbish him or her drive” & anyone who doesn’t see it like they do gets added to the list"

Saudi King Dies At 90, Meet The New King



The King of Saudi Arabia, Abdullah bin Abdulaziz has died. The Royal officials announced he has been in the hospital on admission for weeks after suffering bouts of ill health.
Abdullah bin Abdulaziz was the fifth of his brothers to take the throne and become king in 2005.
King Abdullah, who was said to be aged about 90, had been suffering from a lung infection.
Following his demise, a statement early on Friday has been issued out saying his 79-year-old half brother, Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud, had become king.
The official announcement from the Royal Court came as little surprise, but this is still a historic and sad moment for this deeply conservative Muslim country, home to the two holiest sites in Islam, at Mecca and Medina, and the world’s biggest oil exporter and producer.
As king he pushed through cautious reforms, including giving women a greater public role, against opposition from religious conservatives.
The New King
King Salman assumes the throne at a difficult time for Saudi Arabia. Having defeated an Islamist insurgency 10 years ago, the country now finds itself sandwiched between the growing threats from al-Qaeda in Yemen to the south and Islamic State to the north. Both groups have their sympathisers inside Saudi Arabia.
