Rapper  Eva Alordiah  wrote an open letter to the  President, Muhammadu Buhari . The letter titled ‘Dear Mr President Buhari Sir!’ reads: Dear Mr President Buhari sir, What a pleasure it is to send you a letter my man! Kai kai kai! I am so honored to be communicating with you like this yo. I am going to go straight to the point and skip all unnesscesary mumbo-jumbo. There are two sides to everything Mr President and the only way you are going to take our dear Nigeria to canaan is by understanding this fact and knowing what to do with this information. Lucky for you I have done that job and all you have to do now is pay me daddy! Now there are two sides to what Nigeria needs. There is your side, and there is the peoples’ side. You know your side, and it must be a really good thing you have planned because the mighty God I serve couldn’t have put you in this position by mistake **except of cause you think you got here by sheer luck or votes of...

Caitlyn Jenner, Charly Boy and Denrele Edun - Etcetera  writes on the current transgender madness... And that’s how Bruce Jenner unveiled his new identity, leaving his male identity behind with Caitlyn.” Trust Nigerians not to be left behind in the gossip and buzz it generated. A female presenter with the not-so-Cool FM station in Lagos, known for her fake German-American-Arabian-Indian-Chinese-French-Yoruba accent was like, “Oh my gosh”, so Bruce Jenner is now Caitlyn Jenner? “What the hell is going on?! Abegii, Nigerians should stop feigning surprise like they’ve not seen or heard anything like this before. You all should stop acting like we don’t have our own Denrele Edun or Charly Boy. Mscheeeeeewww!!! –  Is it because Bruce or Caitlyn (whatever she is called now) finally had enough balls to pluck off her penis? Its just a matter of time, Denrele will be woman enough to pluck off his too and give us something...

I always used to think that I’ll not like to marry a pastor. This came from being around men of God and their families a lot because a lot of my older friends who have made great impact in my life are men of God and in that line I have a really good relationship with their families. Now you can imagine my fervent prayer whenever I hang out with their wives and leave to go home for God to please keep every single pastor away from me or anyone who He knows that He’ll call in the future to work in the ministry as a pastor. It’s not because the wives I know are suffering in their marriages, depressed, or enduring unnecessary pain and wishing for a way to opt out, far from it, these were and are very happily married women who knew what they were getting themselves into, maybe not so much in detail because no one really knows these things but at least they chose to walk that path and a lot of times, most of them are called into the ministry as well. But what scared me the...

A very concerned eye witness wrote this !!! Gone are the days in the Nigeria entertainment Industry, where celebrities were humble to their fans and also appreciated their fans for the love and support shown to them, despite the Money and Fame, they still maintain the humility and appreciate their fans. For that fact, they still remain at the top spot for years, making sure Nigeria Entertainment is known worldwide, But these days, virtually all the celebrities we have are not appreciative and loyal to their fans. The Nigeria Indigenous Rapper, who calls himself “ Baddo “, “Voice of the Street” and a “Street King” which I do not see any street credibility in the Rapper’s Lifestyle. On the 28th of May, 2015, “ The Place Club ” was re-opened at Ikeja G.R.A, a lot of celebrity came for the Launch. Meanwhile, the Yoruba actor Omo banke and the Yoruba Gospel singer Lanre teriba were outside the eatery, where they were catching fun...

By Chinedu Hardy Nwadike The right definition for how I feel now is troubled and having realized that speaking out makes it look like I have an alien mind is the funniest thing that I will have to face especially now that I am writing on this topic. Looking at the state of Nigerian music industry today, one would praise the resilience of the veterans and also the contributions of those who came after. The greatest praise should be heaved on Nigerians who used the best part of their hearts to believe in Nigeria music because without the people, there would never be anything like the lucrative industry we have today. I am taking time to praise everyone because a good professor I know said ‘commend before you condemn’, so having commended everyone, now is time for condemnation. As a writer, one of my first titles was ‘Things that need to be changed in Nigerian music’ and there, I called for a change in our contents, but like a friend of mine would say, ‘H...

Pakistan's Maulana Fazlur Rehman is of the opinion that 'Women who wear jeans are the reason behind earthquakes'.  Well, we all know that it is a free world and everyone is entitled to his opinion....read this man's opinion as it was reported by New Indian Express During a press conference at a local hotel in Islamabad, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islami Fazl (JUI-F) Chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman asked the Pakistani armed forces to launch a military operation against women wearing jeans all over Pakistan. According to him, the immodesty of women is the cause behind earthquakes, inflation and other kinds of disasters. Fazlur Rehman went on to say that a woman who is not covered like a 'sack of flour' is a mobile weapon of mass destruction for her state and that Pakistan has multitude of such nuclear missiles in all its major cities. Rehman then blamed 'immodest women' for the Baluchistan crisis, lack of energy supply and the deteriorating security situation...

By Terfa Naswem A political analyst, Mr. Ifeduba ThankGod has criticised the decision by President Muhammadu Buhari to relocate the central command of the military to Maiduguri, Borno, to intensify the fight against Boko Haram insurgency. He described the move as the height of unprofessionalism and the most senseless decision any president has ever taken. He said this was because the people who work at the command centre were not regular combatant soldiers and as such would not contribute any more than they could from Abuja or anywhere for that matter. Mr, Ifeduba, with due respect to your profession as a political analyst, I want to let you know that when you use a “broken lens” to view issues from a far, you can’t see it very clear and your analysis will be wrong. Mr. Ifeduba, you are a professional in Political Science but I doubt if you are one in Military history or any aspect of the military especially Nigeria. You are viewing things from a layman point of...

As Buhari takes over as Nigeria's President, the people's expectations from him within the first 100days in office are very high owing to the promises he made to the masses during his campaign. Here are some expected things Nigerians from selected worths of life will want him to do in his first 100 days in office. Culled from Vanguard Buhari must revive  the energy sector  –  Ebun-Olu   Adegboruwa, lawyer “Gen. Buhari should address the problems surrounding energy in this country as a matter of urgency. Power generation is critical to the development of this nation. He should break the cabal controlling the importation of fuel, diesel, candles, rechargeable lamps and other imports that benefit importers to the detriment of the Nigerian populace, and revive the entire power sector so that the generation, transmission and distribution companies should be totally working. By this approach, generator and diesel importers will also be encouraged to invest ...

By Terfa Naswem I almost forgot the adage which says: what a man can do a woman can do better, until three women in Jonathan government reminded me of it in the opposite direction. The women in Jonathan government which I call “The Untouchables III” namely: Patience Jonathan, Diezani K. Alison-Madueke and Ngozi Okonjo - Iweala customised corruption and became the law themselves as no one could dare touch them. Men have been known to be more corrupt than women in leadership and most aspects of life. But these three women are disgrace to womanhood and have shown that they are more corrupt than the men that once headed those offices with regard to Diezani K. Alison-Madueke and Ngozi Okonjo - Iweala. For Patience Jonathan, she followed the path of Turai Yar’Adua who turned late Yar’Adua into a mere inert resource for her diabolical schemes.       The likes of Stella Oduah -Ogiemwonyi, former Nigerian Minister of Aviation and Patricia Olubunmi ...

An animal rights activist in his quest to grant primates the same liberties enjoyed by humans​​shockingly ​compared ​their legal fight to the struggle of enslaved blacks in the US. Steve Wise the lawyer 'representing these chimpanzees, Hercules and Leo said: “We had a history of that for hundreds of years saying black people are not part of society and you can enslave them. That wasn’t right. It didn’t work,” said Steven Wise, head of the Nonhuman Rights Project. His group is asking a Manhattan Supreme Court judge to grant a writ of habeas corpus to two chimpanzees living in a Stony Brook University lab in Suffolk County. If granted, the writ would free the 8-year-old chimps Hercules and Leo by declaring their confinement illegal. Wise came before Justice Barbara Jaffee after losing their fight in three other state courts. He extended the slavery comparison by saying that at one point in time courts didn’t recognize Native ...

This post is not in any way our own opinion, its exclusively the opinion of the writer. By Terfa Naswem The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) is a Nigerian law enforcement agency that investigates financial crimes such as advance fee fraud (419 fraud) and money laundering. The EFCC was established in 2003, by president Obasanjo, partially in response to pressure from the Financial Action Task Force on Money Laundering (FATF), which named Nigeria as one of 23 countries non-cooperative in the international community's efforts to fight money laundering. During Obasanjo Administration, under EFCC chairman Nuhu Ribadu, the agency addressed financial corruption by prosecuting and convicting a number of high-profile corrupt individuals, ranging from Nigeria's former chief law enforcement officer to several bank chief executives. By 2005, the EFCC arrested government officials including, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha. Although Obasanjo was not free from corruption and his g...

A Muslim televangelist, Mücahid Cihad Han has set Turkish social media aflame by claiming that a man would meet his masturbating hand 'pregnant in the afterlife' and is 'asking for its rights. Lol Self-styled televangelist Mücahid Cihad Han dived into some delicate matters on May 24 when he answered his viewers’ questions on private television station 2000 TV, Turkish media has reported. Han initially looked puzzled when a viewer said he 'kept masturbating, although he was married, and even during the Umrah,” a pilgrimage to Mecca performed by Muslims which can be undertaken at any time of the year, in contrast to the Hajj. After repeating the question a few times, Han claimed that Islam strictly prohibits masturbation as a “haram” (forbidden) act. “Moreover, one hadith states that those who have sexual intercourse with their hands will find their hands pregnant in the afterlife, complaining against them to God over its rights,” he said, referring to what he claim...

Omotola took to social media to say this Don't you think she is right?

Skales has been one artist i personally have a flare for right from the word go in his carrier, i can remember vividly when he dropped that single " Heading For A Grammy   which painted an image of the vibrant rapper in my mind. I personally was disturbed when it seemed he was not really getting the attention he needed from his former label EME. Glory be to God Skales has finally made it.. Yes he proved many people wrong. Here are 10 unknown facts about the album. The ‘Man of the year album is made up of 22 tracks, with songs spanning a wide range of genres and fusion. Skales completely ignores his past life. ‘Man Of The Year’ has no mention of EME, Banky W, nor Wizkid. Many would want the recent drama with Wizkid to be a good lyrical point, but Skales fails to go down this path. Bygones are bygones. On ‘Man of The Year’, there’s an embarrassment of riches in the collaboration department. An array of talented high –profile features are on the LP with Davido...

This is one of Skales ealiest single back in 2010, i just reposted it for those of you who will like to have a feel of it...Enjoy... You can take just litle time to read his bio below as it was written then in 2010. Skales, whose real name is Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, is an 18 year old rapper, song writer and performer. This emerging talent has wooed many audiences around Nigeria with his unique rap style and charm on stage; from the Zain Tru Search talent competition in 2008, to the Soundcity Blast concert in 2009 where he astonished the crowd with a rap acapella. The journey for Skales begun way back in 2000, when he started writing his own songs and honing his rap skills in Kaduna, where he grew up. Between 2007 and 2008, this adventurous young man travelled to Jos as often as he could to work with some of Nigeria’s finest producers, Jeremiah Gyang and Jesse Jagz. In 2008, he entered for the Zain Tru Search competition and emerged as the winner for the North Central region, an...

Hi Skales, This is my first time writing a letter (open or closed) in about 3yrs, so you’re gonna have to forgive me for however I sound or come across. I want to commend you firstly for your rising from the ashes story – bouncing back with arguably one of the best singles of 2014 and now your Man Of The Year album due in weeks – doing this after lots of people (I inclusive) had given up on you and even resulted to making jokes on social media. Behind all the bants and trolling, I have always been a low-key fan. Obviously Heading For A Grammy was a one-off when it comes to your rap career, because frankly, I don’t think that height can be reached again. But I (and I’m sure lots of other Nigerians) are still hoping you have some of that fire and at least give us a few rap singles on the album. I also think you are a very good songwriter – I should rephrase that to singer seeing as even foreign artistes employ songwriters at times. So I feel this career path is the best for you especi...

This is an open letter from charlie boy AKA Arae Fada to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari expressing his views and opinion on certain issues in the country that needs to be adressed.  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 c...

The Chairman Silver Bird Group and Senator elect Ben Murray Bruce just dropped this interesting article...Read below Now that Major General Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) has been chosen by the Nigerian people, it is my duty as a patriotic Nigerian to help him succeed even though my candidate was Pres. Jonathan, a man to whom I will always be loyal and appreciative. General Buhari is about to mount the saddle and I for one am in a very good position to tell him some home truths because as a senator-elect, I have a very fulfilling job awaiting me and I do not need a job or favours from Buhari so I do not have to play nice. Looking at the personalities he has appointed to his transition council, I am wont to believe that General Buhari needs to expand his circle of friends and advisers. As a military strategist, the president-elect must be familiar with the principle that the people you use in subduing an opponent are not necessarily the same persons you will need in rebuilding ...
