PADDY ADENUGA NARRATES THE INTRIGUING STORY OF HOW HE ALMOST BOUGHT CHEVRON NETHERLANDS WHEN HE WAS JUST 29.

It was October 2013. Two years had passed since I had left the family business in Lagos, Nigeria and moved to London, England to start my own oil trading company. My time in the family business, as a director in the telecoms division and upstream oil & gas company was challenging to say the least but engaging and ultimately rewarding. However, I have never felt comfortable sitting back and getting a golden pass through life. Whilst the easy thing to do was to be a “good boy and good son” and enjoy all the luxuries of being in a family business – I decided that striking it out on my own once again was the best course of action.

FORMER PRESIDENT OBASANJO WRITES PRESIDENT BUHARI, TELLS HIM TO HALT 2019 AMBITION.

Since we are still in the month of January, it is appropriate to wish all Nigerians Happy 2018. I am constrained to issue this special statement at this time considering the situation of the country. Some of you may be asking, “What has brought about this special occasion of Obasanjo issuing a Special Statement?” You will be right to ask such a question. But there is a Yoruba saying that ‘when lice abound in your clothes, your fingernails will never be dried of blood’. When I was in the village, to make sure that lice die, you put them between two fingernails and press hard to ensure they die and they always leave blood stains on the fingernails. To ensure you do not have blood on your fingernails, you have to ensure that lice are not harboured anywhere within your vicinity.

WE PAID KISS DANIEL OVER N120M AS ROYALTIES FROM PERFORMANCES - G-WORLDWIDE REACTS TO ALLEGATIONS THAT KISS DANIEL WAS ENSLAVED.

There has been a lot of misinformation in the media as to the background of Kiss Daniel’s wrongful exit from G-Worldwide Entertainment. The management of G-Worldwide Entertainment wishes to state it had never been its intention to seek legal redress, nor join issues with an artiste who we fear is being given bad legal advice. However we feel it is important that we set the records straight for the benefit of the general public and others who are interested in knowing the truth.

G-WORLDWIDE PAID KISS DANIEL BETWEEN N30,000 MONTHLY STIPEND FOR 2 YEARS - STATEMENT FROM KISS DANIEL'S LEGAL REPRESENTATIVES.

1. Kiss Daniel did not walk out of his contract. 

He only terminated it as he is permitted to do under the contract. Is it now a sin for a party to exercise a right expressly conferred on him by law/contract?

Is it the fault of Kiss Daniel that the contract has a termination clause that allows Kiss Daniel to terminate the contract? We should bear in mind that the contract was drafted by G-Worldwide Entertainment. Kiss Daniel scrupulously followed the provision of the contract. It is unfortunate that people are mixing this case up with that of other artists running away from a contract they signed. No! This is different. This is a case of an Artist insisting that the contract signed by the parties must be obeyed and enforced. Kiss Daniel is firm believer in rule of law and due process. This was why it was Kiss Daniel that went to court first.

THIRD YEAR REMEMBRANCE OF MY LATE FATHER, "BARRISTER FELIX ODUSANYA DINA."

My blog post have been scarce recently due to work load and additional responsibilities. However, making out time to celebrate my late Father, "Barrister Felix Odusanya Dina" is a task that must be accomplished.

He exited this sinful world 3 years ago but great memories of him remains intact. The picture of him up here is easily my favourite because staring right into those eyes gladdens my heart.

Gone but not forgotten, I sometimes imagine what we would have accomplished together in these 3 years. I am not hurting anymore, rather full of praises and thanksgiving daily.

You ensured Christ is the bedrock of your family and I am glad to affirm that the faith is unshaken.

The Olusanya twins are quite big now. They would easily have been your favourite grandchildren because of your love for Twinnies. You would have hailed "Daddy Alex" like this "Baba Onibeji, Ol*k* meji bi ti Ajanaku".

Expressing my entire thoughts about you in words is difficult, in all, I LOVE AND MISS You  DAD.

2017 has been yet another year of great testimonies, it is not even over yet which means many testimonies are still loading. God has been faithful.

Your wife, children, friends and relatives miss you.

Keep resting by God's side.

Dina Temitayo (Xantaplus)

BIG BROTHER NAIJA - TELEVISION AS MADNESS - WRITTEN BY REUBEN ABATI (@Abati1990).

What a relief! So, the Big Brother Naija reality television programme is finally over. It ended Sunday evening with 23-year old Efe Michael Ejemba, University of Jos graduate of Economics and singer winning the N25 million + SUV at stake, with 57.6% of the votes from over 24 million voters across Africa. Warri, where Efe’s family lives, erupted in excitement. At the Multichoice viewing centre in Ikeja, Lagos, where Katung Aduwak took charge so brilliantly, there was a similar eruption of incandescent joy. I was relieved because for about 70 days, the Big Brother Naija show was a big distraction, crass capitalism at its most cynical edge, a source of unmanageable madness in homes and on the streets. Now that it is over, it is time for some honest frank talk for the attention of all stakeholders involved.
