Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor has no case to answer- Presidency

The Presidency yesterday, cleared CAN President, Ayo Oritsejafor over his involvement in the controversial $9.3m arms deal in South Africa.

The Senior Special Assistant on Public Affairs to President Goodluck, Doyin Okupe, told newsmen in Abuja that Oritsejafor has nothing to do with the matter and that people are just trying to bring him down.
According to him:
"Oritsejafor has no business in the matter. It is true that he owns the aircraft but there are over 200 Nigerians who owns jets. Apart from those who use it frequently, some give it out to get some money and defray some of the costs. If you put your jet down, you pay money and parking charges."

"He gave the private jer to a company to manage. The company is handling it and these people gave out the plane that is available. What has this got to do with Oritsejafor? If i have many cars and decided to give one to car hire service and they decided to carry somebody with Indian Hemp, you will link it up with the man who gave it out?
Excuse me, this is ridiculous."

He also refuted the claims that the matter backfired because the Government did not make the deal public before embarking on it.

Speaking to Journalists at the 2nd edition of City People political award which held recently in Lagos, Emeka who want to be AGN president said: 

"There are five people who have taken the laws of Nigeria movie industry into thier hands. They are, Emma Ogugua, Murphy Stephen, Sunny McDon, Okey Bakassi and Ifeanyi Dikeh. These five people registered Actors Guild of Nigeria as their personal business. No other individual can come in."

My first concern is to clean up Nollywood, clean up AGN. Every Nigeria youth want to act movies now. What future are we leaving for them? Where are they going to write their names? The two bedroom in Surulere where they will ask you to come and grace their beds before they give you roles? Where they will make you join a gay or lesbian group before they talk to you?

"We built this industry with pain. Those who are at the helm of affairs now, people don't even know them in movies. They just came in and messed everything up."

"Ibinabo has been acting as AGN president for years now, but with her case as ex-convict, do you have any moral justification to recognize as the president? The court case is still on the war continues."

"That wasn't the industry i founded." He said.

Hilarious: That "Human Hair" Might Actually Be "Goat Hair". Must Read!

According to BBC News- In China, hair extensions, wigs and weaves are big business. Buyers in hair salons and shopping malls are often told they are getting real human hair - but when you look closely, sometimes things are not as they seem.

In a tiny village in Hunan province, central China a man dressed in a white vest and shorts rides around the dusty streets on a rusty bicycle, shouting and ringing his bell.

I stop him and ask what he's up to. "I'm collecting hair," he says. "When I ring my bell women come out and I cut their hair. I make hair extensions."
I ask him how much he pays women for their hair. "I offer them a good price, but I need to make a profit," he says with a smile.

The streets of the village are covered in hair drying beneath the scorching sun. Some of the hair is definitely human hair, yet the number of shaven goats wandering the streets suggests otherwise.

After collecting the hair, he takes it to a small factory where ten women weave it together into hair extensions.
Looking on, I can see that some of the hair being woven together is human and some of it definitely is not. He then sells it to larger factories where it is treated with chemicals before being sold to shops around the country.
