Handsome Nigerian singer of South-east descent has discussed his relationship with singer Chidinma amidst other issues relating to music, family life and his lifestyle in a recent interview. Can you recall how you started your music career? I have always loved everything about music from an early age. I actually started out playing drums for a live band at the age of 15. After that, I started playing the keyboard and from there, I began singing. I later got a scholarship to study music and that is how I developed as a musician. What was the reaction of your parents? You know parents are usually wary of the entertainment industry because they feel a lot of immoral things happen there. But the music scholarship that I got really helped me. It taught me a lot about the job and how to be a professional. I had a particular director who told me that people usually think that musicians are wayward, irresponsible and ostentatious. He also told me that if I want to make a difference in m

No fewer than 38 universities across the country have increased their tuition fees as a result of poor funding by the Federal and State governments. The Chairman of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), University of Ibadan Chapter, Dr. Deji Omole, made this known in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja on Monday. The statement which assessed the two years of President Muhammadu Buhari in office, lamented that the current government had made Nigerians poorer. Omole said that the public education was not taken seriously because most children of the rich and those in high offices do not attend school in Nigeria. “The latest increment might be attributed to poor funding by the federal and state governments as ASUU poorly rated the President Muhammadu Buhari in the area of funding of university education. ASUU also noted that it would be difficult for any Nigeria university to effectively compete globally with the inadequate allocation of budgetary funding as prescri

The Enugu Diocese of the Church of Nigeria (Anglican Communion) has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to resign from office if he is unable to discharge his duties. The Church stated that Buhari’s ill-health has impeded the growth of the nation. It also asked the Federal Government to make public the outcome of the investigations of the special panel headed by the Acting President Yemi Osinbajo over the large sums of money recovered by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in a private apartment in Osborne Towers, Ikoyi in Lagos State as well as the arms recovered by the Nigerian Customs Service (NSC). In a communiqué issued at the end of the 3rd session of the 16th Synod, held at the Christ Redemption Church, Ogui-Nike, yesterday, the Church noted that the president’s health had kept him “away for too long” and enjoined him to resign owing to ill health. “The Synod compassionately notes the ill health of President Muhammadu Buhari which has kept him out of office for

The way the immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan saved Nigeria from a predicted implosion in the wake of the announcement of the results of 2015 general elections, is the way the Buhari-Osinbajo administration should save Nigeria now from threats of imminent disintegration. There is no need pretending that all is well when, from all indications, the country is under threat. The fact that Nigeria survived much turbulence in the past is no guarantee that it will always survive. Things have changed. The Nigeria of the 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s is not the Nigeria of today. There is much enlightenment and information flow now is a matter of pressing button. Jonathan did not hold unto the stereotyped belief that no incumbent president in Nigeria had lost election. Nothing is absolute. If Jonathan held arrogantly to that false belief as he was being prompted to, perhaps, by now, we would be talking a different story Although Jonathan knew that he had the federal might – the military and

Ita-Giwa alleged that a certain Effiong Udeme, in collusion with some Cross River State officials shared the relief materials among themselves and sold some. She said the relief materials included bags of cement, wood, and packs of zinc. Ita-Giwa insisted that she was a victim of a personal vendetta being waged by political enemies spearheaded by Governor of Cross River State, Ben Ayade. She also alleged that the latter wants her dead. She said, “If anything happens to me, Governor Ayade should be held responsible for the text he sent to me. “I would like the public to know that Governor Ben Ayade, a man whose election I supported, has been sending

An upcoming artiste, T Shine Sisi Eko, has denied reports making rounds that he posted a message on his Facebook page threatening to kill Nigerians if government kills kidnapper, Chukwudi Onwuamadike (aka Evans). According to the post, which the artiste disassociated himself from, he allegedly writes: “If the inevitable happens, and Evans is killed, I will take up the kidnapping business of Evans and kill an uncountable number of persons.” The post also has a picture of Evans, which was captioned: “Nigeria is so useless. I don’t know this man but I don’t just want him dead. And if stupid Nigerian government mistakenly kills Evans, I swear, me, T SHINE SISI EKO, will replace him and I must kill uncountable souls. Bet me.” This post elicited negative reactions from wellmeaning Nigerians, who are currently calling on the police to arrest the artiste for making such inciting comments on social media in a country as volatile as Nigeria.

The US Supreme Court on Monday partially reinstated Donald Trump ’ s controversial travel ban targeting citizens from six predominantly Muslim countries , prompting the president to claim a victory for national security . The nine justices , who will hear arguments in the case in October , said the ban could now be enforced for travelers from the targeted countries “who lack any bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States. ” The court tempered its ruling by saying the ban could not be implemented against people who have personal links to the US, citing the examples of foreign nationals wishing to visit family or students accepted to attend university . But the decision nonetheless marks a win for the Republican leader , who has insisted the ban is necessary for national security , despite criticism that it singles out Muslims in violation of the US constitution. The State Department said it would begin enforcing the travel ban “in a professional, organized

The Majority Leader in the House of Representatives , Mr. Femi Gbajabiamila , and members loyal to the Ahmed Makarfi- led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party have also faulted President Muhammadu Buhari ’s choice of Hausa to convey his Sallah message to Nigerians. On Sunday, the Presidency had, first time since the President went on a medical vacation to London 51 days ago , released an audio message containing Buhari ’s message to Nigerians to mark the Eid- el -Fitr , commemorating the end of Ramadan . Groups , including the Ohanaeze Ndigbo and the pan -Yoruba socio- political group , Afenifere , and prominent Nigerians, had, on Sunday, berated Buhari for his decision to use Hausa to pass across his Sallah message in a nation with more than 350 ethnic groups .On Monday , Gbajabiamila and the Chief Whip of the House, Mr. Alhassan Ado -Doguwa , also condemned the President’ s handlers for Buhari ’s choice of language in conveying his message to Nigerians.

Recently , the leader of the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra , Mr Nnamdi Kanu , asked that the governorship election in Anambra State as well as other elections in Nigeria be boycotted . The belief of Kanu and IPOB is that such an act would “send a strong signal ” to Nigerians that it is serious about its quest for a referendum on Biafra. While that was still causing ripples, IPOB was quoted as saying that it would soon announce its Day of Rage when Biafrans would publicly burn their Nigerian voter cards and passports to show their disgust with Nigeria . Kanu is addressed as the Supreme Leader and people prostrate or kneel before him to receive blessings or prayers with the laying of hands . A few people have even called him their “messiah ”, with some claiming that they were cured of their illnesses after he prayed for them . Then, there is the new weird trend among young Igbo members of IPOB who have become so uncouth and caustic in their language that it is shocking and embarrassi

The Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force, Jimoh Moshood, in an interview with Punch explains why the police have yet to make arrests of Northern youths who issued a quit ultimatum to Igbo living in the region. Some people wonder why the police were quick to arrest Yoruba people after the Ile-Ife crisis and reluctant to carry out arrests after the quit notice given by some northern youths to Igbo people in the region. Why is that so? When you see people killing innocent people, going after them from house to house, you cannot ask why were the police quick in arresting them. It would be wrong for anyone to compare the two cases. We had wanton destruction of property at Ife. Anyone drawing parallel lines between the two cases either on ethnic or whatsoever consideration is not doing the nation any good. We rose to the occasion during the Ife crisis and you know Ife and environs had been known for protracted crisis. We swiftly moved in and restored law and order and ensu

Question: How is Eid al-Fitr Celebrated? During the month of Ramadan, Muslims observe a strict fast and participate in pious activities such as charitable giving and peace-making. It is a time of intense spiritual renewal for those who observe it. At the end of Ramadan, Muslims throughout the world observe a joyous three-day celebration called Eid al-Fitr (the Festival of Fast-Breaking). Answer : Eid al-Fitr falls on the first day of Shawwal, the month which follows Ramadan in the Islamic calendar. It is a time to give in charity to those in need, and celebrate with family and friends the completion of a month of blessings and joy. Before the day of Eid, during the last few days of Ramadan, each Muslim family gives a determined amount as a donation to the poor. This donation is of actual food — rice, barley, dates, rice, etc. — to ensure that the needy can have a holiday meal and participate in the celebration. This donation is known as sadaqah al-fitr (charity of fast-breaking).

A senior police officer, who arrested kidnap kingpin, Chukwudi Onuamadike, aka Evans, and members of his gang in 2006, shares the encounter with Gbenga Adeniji How did you meet Evans? There was a time in 2006 that a gang of robbers attacked a commercial bank in Lagos and went somewhere around the National Arts Theatre, Iganmu, to share the loot.
