Mavin boss, Don Jazzy is set to lead his 6 other acts to ‘port’ from telecoms giants, MTN, to their rival, Globacom.
The facts before us revealed that Don Jazzy has just two months left on his MTN deal while Tiwa Savage, D’Prince and Dr Sid who are fellow ambassadors might port with him as Glo is said to have indicated interest in signing the trio of Mavin youngsters, Korede Bello, Díja and Reekado Banks.

Over the years, Don Jazzy is known to have always protected his flock, do things in unison with them and thus might consider the offer to port with his entire team from MTN to Glo.

"I'm home and healthy". OJB Jezreel rubbishes kidney relapse tale


Ace music producer, OJB Jezreel has debunked a widely reported story of his kidney relapsing months after transplant.  He set the records straight on his ‎facebook page.
Hi my name is Babatunde okungbowa a.k.a OJB JEZREEL. I'd like to set the record straight, am at home and healthy with my family going about my ‎normal business.

Obviously bloggers don't research before they post. If they did they would know that a transplant patient will always do routine checkups cus of infections etc

Mmmm nuff said am sure hiptv, orisun tv,encomium,el tv and black jerzie seeing n speaking with me in the past 2 weeks.

Wasn't on a hospital bed or in one! Not cool at all Linda not cool yes magazine. RESEARCH proper if it's gossip worthy or not." He said

Have you read Charly Boy's open letter to Muhammadu Buhari?


Read Charly Boy's open letter to the president-elect, Muhammadu Buhari below:

Oga GMB,
How far? I trust you have been getting enough rest and getting ready for the mother of all battles in your life. You know how hard and how long you have fought for this and now that you have it, we can’t wait to see how our lives will change!
You must understand that our expectations are high, but you can't blame us too much. By faith or design, you have become a symbol of renaissance for a nation that has been battered by mismanagement and unprecedented corruption. Kai! Odiegwu!
Many of us were sold on your Change Campaign, tired of the usual statuesque and many more just wanted a better life for ourselves and our loved ones. All eyes are on you, I trust you know that by now. This Change should demonstrate to us possibilities, hope again for the youths of this country and a channeling back to those core values which we hold sacred. Anything less will be same of the same. Shey you get?
Fact from fiction, truth from rhetoric, I know that it is foolhardy to expect that one individual alone can by himself/herself bring about this Change we desperately need and earnestly desire.


However,in as much as you need to raise a viable team to work with, using the formula of zoning won't cut it. My earnest advice to you is to choose officers and men strictly on merit and not necessarily what geopolitical zone they come from. Remember, this same zoning formula has been used at different times in this country, and each time, it has failed. The issue of zoning coming up now again is a reminder of times in the past that we desperately want to forget. Same of the same?
I would want to believe that you have come to heal and fix the rot.

It will never be easy because of the wolves and sharks amongst us who benefit big time from the corruption, the poverty, the confusion and hopelessness they inflict on Nigerians. 
So after May 29th, as you put on your boxing gloves and crank your whip, we will be watching with bathed breath to see not only the will to fight this battle but the sincerity and strategies to lead us on the path of true healing for our broken Nation. Biko.
Oga me, e don set oooooo.
Much Respect,
Na me.
AreaFada, Charlyboy

Nadia Buari’s Pregnancy Delight: Intimate Ante-Natal Photos Of Celeb Twin Mom


When news broke that Ghanaian movie star, Nadia Buari, was delivered of a set of beautiful twins, many people did not believe the story.
The reason for this was not far-fetched. Before the good news, not many knew that she was pregnant.
In fact, some doubting Thomases claimed she was only flaunting another woman’s babies as her own. Even some of her colleagues were not in the know of her pregnancy. The actress succeeded in keeping the issue very secret.

However, Nadia showed off pictures of hers while she was pregnant. She posted the photographs in celebration of Mothers Day that was marked yesterday, Sunday May 10, 2015.

The identity of the children’s father is still unknown to most of her fans. She has refused to informed the public who the father of the twins is.
Peep below for pics:

In fact, 13 countries in the world pay just one dollar. They are: nationals of Mauritania, Monaco, Morroco, New Zealand, Panama, Uruguay, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru, Burma, Dominican, Chile and Colombia.

US citizens are charged the highest, about N14,000 followed by Russia who we charge about N10k.

UK is N9,700, whereas a multiple-visa applicant is charged N16,200.

Countries such as Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Romania, Belgium and Spain, pay a little above N6,000 for a single-visa application. Multiple-entry visa application fee in most of the listed countries is N9,000 plus.

Singer OJB Jezreel Hospitalized As Kidney Collapses Again


Popular Nigerian music producer and singer, Babatunde Okungbowa popularly known as OJB is reportedly on admission at the General Hospital, Lagos following a relapse of his kidney ailment.

According to Yes! International magazine, OJB, who had a successful kidney transplant in India last year, had a relapse two weeks ago.

A source at the hospital who spoke to the magazine said

"The medical experts who attended to OJB at the Lagos Hospital were shocked at the sudden relapse despite last year's successful kidney transplant. They chided him for not going back to India for post-surgery check-ups as specified by the team of Indian doctors in the medical report given to him".


When contacted, his third wife, Korede said

"I don't want to say anything about it unless he talks about it himself. Have you called him? Because I have not seen the story and he has even warned me about it. So please I don't want to have anything to do with it unless he talks about it himself. He warned me and I have to respect and obey my husband"
.

His first wife, Mabel donated one of her kidneys to him last year and he was believed to be doing well until this recent development.

I hope my wife will not divorce me when i leave office - President Jonathan


As he prepares to make his exit out of the Presidential villa, President Goodluck Jonathan has started talking… about what awaits him after loosing his grip on power.

Jonathan is apparently apprehensive of what awaits him in his personal life and officially after leaving office.

On Sunday during a thanksgiving and farewell service organised in his honour at the Cathedral Church of the Advent, in Abuja, the President inferred that his ministers of close aides will be persecuted.

He also hopes to not be persecuted like former South African President Frederik Willem De Klerk whose wife left him after he took the decision to abolish minority rule in the country.

In essence, he hopes Patience Jonathan will not leave him as a result of his decision to concede defeat without any fuss.

Hear him out:
“I believe there are reasons for everything. Some hard decisions have their own cost; and there is no doubt about that. That I have run the government this way that stabilised certain things, the electoral process and other things that brought stability to this country. They are very costly decisions which I must be ready to pay for.”
“Some people come to me and say this or that person, is he not your friend that benefitted? Is it not your government that this person benefitted from? But this is what the person is saying. But I used to say that worse statements will come. If you take certain decisions, you should know that those close to you will even abandon you at some point.”
“And I tell them that more of my so-called friends will disappear. When de Klerk took the decision to abolish minority rule in South Africa, even his wife divorced him. I hope my wife will not divorce me. But that is the only decision that has made South Africa to be a global player now. If they still have minority rule, by this time, nobody will be talking about them.”
“If you take certain decisions, it might be good for many but it might affect others differently. So, for ministers and aides who served with me, I sympathise with them because they will be persecuted. They must be ready for persecution. Quoting Tai Solarin, may your ways be rough, I say to my ministers, I wish you what I wish myself. They will have hard times, we will all have hard times. Our ways will be rough.”
