KANYE WEST IS NOT HAVING THE GREATEST OF MONTHS

Just days after hitting his head on a sign post as he tried to run from paparazzi while on a lunch date with baby mama, Kim Kardashian, Kanye West's stunning $750,000 Lamborghini was crushed after getting trapped in Kim Kardashian's electric gates. 

The black vehicle was being delivered back to Kim's Los Angeles house by a driver after servicing it and as he drove it into the compund, the heavy wooden gates closed on the vehicle too early, damaging it.
The car repair shop was quick to send out a mechanic to see how much it would cost to fix the damage.


In the last month, Kanye has hardly been pictured with a smile on his face, he's always looking grumpy. Finding the thought of fatherhood unpleasant? Or is it the baby mama? Just saying

KELLY ROWLAND ADMITS TO BEING JEALOUS OF BEYONCE

When I saw this, I wasn't so surprised. It's human to feel left out when a former band mate becomes more successful as a solo artiste than you but it takes a whole of courage to come out and admit it. If Kelly felt this way, wonder how Michelle must have felt, and still feels.

In her new track ‘Dirty Laundry’ Kelly Rowland opened up on her private life, talking about being jealous of Beyonce’s success at one point in time and being involved with with an abuser (ex boyfriend) who tried to turn her against her friends.

In the song, she sings…
While my sister was on stage killing it like a mother——, I was enraged feelin’ it like a mother——-.
Bird in the cage, you would never know what I was dealing, we went our separate ways but I was happy she was killing it
Bittersweet, she was up I was down. No lie I feel good for her, but what do I do now?
Meanwhile, this n-gga putting his hands on me, swear y’all don’t know the half of this industry.

KING SUNNY ADE'S GUITARIST JAILED FOR 3 YEARS

The 62-year-old Abiodun Fatokun, who was a guitarist with King Sunny Ade for about 30 years, was on Tuesday, sentenced to 3 years imprisonment for drug trafficking by the Federal High Court, Lagos. The husband of three wives and father of 12, pleaded guilty to one count of unlawful exportation of 1.575kg of cocaine during his arraignment on February 26, 2013.

Abiodun was apprehended by operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency on January 1, 2013, at the Murtala Mohammed International Airport, Lagos, while attempting to board an Air France flight to Italy with two parcels of cocaine weighing 1.575kg hidden in the false bottom of his luggage.

Abiodun had blamed poverty for his predicament saying, “I can play any kind of guitar but my music career is a sad story. I played for King Sunny Ade for 30 years before I was unceremoniously retired in 2007 without severance benefit. I was unprepared for it and I saw the bitter side of life. This is my first time of trafficking drugs. I did it out of frustration because at my age, I could not provide for my family. I am ashamed of myself.”

He had no money but managed to marry 3 wives and father 12 children? SMH. Some people just like to bring poverty upon themselves. *hiss*.

PRESIDENT JONATHAN FINALLY DECLARES STATE OF EMERGENCY IN BORNO, YOBE AND ADAMAWA + READ FULL TEXT

 
 Our president has finally taken the step he should have taken a long time ago, a step that would have spared a lot of lives that have been lost. President Jonathan has declared an indefinite state of emergency in three Northern states, Adamawa, Borno and Yobe, citing insecurity. He made the announcement in a nationwide live broadcast yesterday evening. Read the full text of his speech below;

Dear compatriots,

1.    It has become necessary for me to address you on the recent spate of terrorist activities and protracted security challenges in some parts of the country, particularly in Borno, Yobe, Adamawa, Gombe, Bauchi, Kano, Plateau and most recently Bayelsa, Taraba, Benue and Nasarawa states.  These unfortunate events have led to needless loss of lives and property of many innocent Nigerians including members of our security forces.

2.   The recent killing of security operatives by a cult group in Nasarawa state is particularly condemnable. I have directed that no effort or expense be spared in identifying and bringing to justice all those who had a hand in the killing of the operatives.

COMMERCIAL BUS DRIVERS AND CONDUCTORS IN LAGOS TO WEAR UNIFORM

Commercial bus drivers and conductors in Lagos will soon begin to wear uniform and badges and owners of such buses will have their identities aboard the vehicles. The state Commissioner for Transportation, Mr. Kayode Opeifa, while briefing journalists on the activities of the ministry in the last 365 days, said, “The transport unions have agreed on the type of uniform and the badges they will give to the commercial bus drivers and their conductors. The identities of the owners (owners’ cards) of the commercial buses will also be aboard these buses.”

The commercial bus drivers must be re-certified by attending the drivers’ institute, where they will undergo comprehensive tests  -  including vision and driving tests. Not a bad idea at all.

BOKO HARAM CLAIMS RESPONSIBILITY FOR BAMA, BAGA ATTACKS THAT KILLED OVER 250 PEOPLE

What exactly does Boko Haram want? How come the government knows who they are and they haven't been arrested? The leader of the Islamist group, Boko Haram, Abubakar Shekau has claimed responsibility for the two recent deadly attacks - the Bama attack on May 7 where 55 people, mostly soldiers and police, were killed, and the Baga attack on April 16 which left over 200 people dead. The military has been accused of causing scores of deaths in the Baga violence by deliberately setting fires that razed thousands of homes after the initial attack, an accusation the military has denied.

A video was released by Boko Haram yesterday and in the video which shows women and children being held hostage by the sect and Shekau, who was declared a global terrorist by the United States, seated on a rug, said; “We are the ones that carried out the Bama attack, we also carried out the attack in Baga,” “It was you, the security agents that went into town the following day and burnt homes and killed people at will,” Shekau said.

ANGELINA JOLIE HAS DOUBLE MASECTOMY TO PREVENT BREAST CANCER


The mother of six recently revealed that she has had double mastectomy (surgical removal of one or both breasts, partially or completely) to prevent breast cancer after a blood test showed she was genetically susceptible to cancer. Doctors told her she had an 87% risk of getting breast cancer because she carries the BRCA1 gene, which increases her risk of developing breast cancer and ovarian cancer. Angelina's mother, Marcheline Bertrand, died at the age of 56 after battling with cancer for almost a decade and

She had her breasts removed and then reconstructed and her partner, Brad Pitt stood by her side every step of the way. Read Angelina's inspiring NY Times article after the below...

"My mother fought cancer for almost a decade and died at 56. She held out long enough to meet the first of her grandchildren and to hold them in her arms. But my other children will never have the chance to know her and experience how loving and gracious she was. 

'OGA AT THE TOP' SHEM OBA FAYE RESUMES AS THE NSDC OYO STATE BOSS

Ya''ll still remember 'My Oga at the top' now (how can anyone forget sef)? The former Lagos State Commandant of Nigeria Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, Mr. Shem Obafaye, has been posted to Oyo State and has resumed duty as the Commandant of the security agency in the State.

Obafaye was replaced by Mr. Adesuyi Clement from Oyo State Command after his interview on Channels Television live programme ‘Sunrise’ about two months ago went viral.  Since then, no specific assignment was given to him until last week when he was asked to replace Adesuyi officially. 

I hope he won't be granting any interviews anytime soon, if he will, he should at least memorize the website of his new office o, lol.
