TIWA SAVAGE'S MANAGER DENIES MARRIAGE/RELATIONSHIP BUT FRIENDS SAY OTHERWISE

There's been widespread rumor on blogs and social media network about a secret marriage between Tiwa Savage and her manager Tunji ‘Tee Billz’ Balogun. Tunji has denied it. According to him: “The story is not true, these bloggers just publish what they like without doing their findings.” “I am right now in Benin having an album listening party of my other artiste, D’Prince. I have heard all the rumours, whenever I hear them I just laugh to myself. Who was there? Was the person at the wedding?” he asked rhetorically.

However, their friend and colleagues are saying otherwise. See the tweet confirming that the two of them are dating or might be married after the cut...

A MUST READ: IGBO MAN RESPONDS TO TONTO DIKE'S INSULT OF IGBO MEN

Dear Tonto Dikeh,

I know you feel beautiful this morning! Well, beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. For me, you are nowhere near ‘beautiful’. You are just there. But before I tell you what I really want to tell you, I need to tell you something. There is a lady called Adele. She is a singer. She sings. I need to explain what a singer means, because I understand that you have no brain at all. Because I hate sugar-coating, I am hated by a lot of people. You are just like me too. I will understand when people hate you, but, seriously, if you think Igbo men are nosy, then, you are right. That is your opinion and you must protect it.

BANKY'S BEAUTIFUL MUM AND BROTHER

That's Banky W's mum and lil' brother. He got his good looks from his mum but the head must be his dad, hehehe. Lovely pic.

KSOLO AND WIFE OFFICIALLY OVER

 Ksolo's marriage to Kikelomo was dissolved by an Ikeja High Court on Thursday December 3rd, 2012. The now ex couple, welcomed a baby boy in October last year. Ksolo bought himself a new 2009 black Cherokee Jeep to celebrate the divorce.

K-Solo was married to Kike for only 8 months, during which Kike claimed she was beaten by her husband and produced photographs showing her battered face, before he filed for divorce. He claimed that Kikelomo used 'juju' to marry him thereby forcing him to breakup with 'the love of his life' Bimbo who he is now engaged to. #plentydramathings#

DRUNKEN FLYER DUCT-TAPED BY OTHER PASSENGERS FOR DRUNKEN RAGE MID-AIR

A 46-year-old civil engineer, Gudmundur Karl Arthorsson, had to be wrapped up with duct tape and gagged after he began attacking female passengers in a drunken rage and screaming that the plane which was going  from Reykjavik to New York on Friday was going to crash.

Arthorsson, who was going to Jamaica to visit his fiancee allegedly became aggressive after drinking two bottles of hard liquor that he had bought in duty-free in Iceland before boarding the plane. His actions prompted the flight attendant to confiscate the bottles, but he reached into the seat pocket in front of him where there were mini bottles of whiskey, schnapps, and Grand Marnier and continued drinking. When he tried to choke the woman next to him and screaming the plane was going to crash, fellow passengers subdued him and tie him up for the rest of the flight. He was escorted off the flight by police when it landed.

Two things; he was either so excited he was going to see his fiancee or he was wishing he didn't have to go see her. Lol.

JENIFA GOES TO JAMAICA COMING SOON

Funke Akindele Oloyede has announced that the very popular movie, Jenifa, is about to get yet another sequel (the fourth) that will show the international exploits of Jenifa in Jamaica and the United States of America. Funke who is the producer and actress of the famed Jenifa role said the movie was shot in Caribbean Island of Jamaica and in New York.

Can't wait for it to be released. I'm sure it will be more hilarious than the others, just thinking about how 'Jenifa' will behave outside the country is making me laugh.

CHRIS BROWN MOVES IN WITH RIHANNA

 Rihanna's fans are going to be pissed about this especially those who weren’t thrilled that she patched things up with Chris Brown. Brown has moved into Rihanna's $12 million Pacific Palisades mansion she bought just before Christmas. The two have been inseparable lately, including a holiday rendezvous on the Ivory Coast, courtside dates to Lakers games and separate Twitter posts in which they’re wrapped in identical bedding indicating they're sleeping together. Brown even gave Rihanna his $750,000 Lamborghini and went shopping for another one. 

Guess they're back for good or bad.

PIC OF THE DAY

Desperate times call for desperate measures. Lol.

TUFACE AND ANNIE IDIBIA SET TO HAVE A WHITE WEDDING

Tuface and Annie are planning to have their church wedding most likely in February (might even be on the 14th of February, exactly a year after he proposed to her). The couple legalised their union in a Lagos registry  on May 1, 2012 but are yet to do the traditional and white wedding which will all happen early this year, I'm told. This tweet above from Kendra Etufunwa confirms the couple's plans. Big congrats to them.

ZAMFARA GOVT. ARRANGES HUSBAND FOR 2,000 WIDOWS

Hehehe, this our government no go kill person with laughter. The Zamfara state Commissioner for Women and Children Affairs, Hajia Balkisu Bungudu just announced that they are planning to ‘’arrange husbands’’ for about 2,000 widows in the state. The state government has already registered 1,998 widows  to marry off, adding that the mass wedding would be sponsored by the government.

This was done in Kano last year May, when the Kano State government- owned Sharia police (Hisbah Borad), arranged marriages for about 100  out of an estimated 1,000 widows and divorcees

Like seriously? Did the women say they can't find husbands on their own or what? Another way to 'chop' money and provide unnecessary contracts for their family members. Smh.

KOGI SPEAKER INVOLVED IN AUTO CRASH, POLICE ESCORT DEAD

Barely a week after the Kogi State Governor, Captain Idris Wada, was involved in a road accident that claimed the life of his Aide-de-Camp, the convoy of the Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Lawal Jimoh, was involved in another ghastly motor accident, which killed a police escort instantly. Jimoh was travelling to his home town in Okene, according to reports, when a heavy duty truck ran into his escort van at Osara, along Okene road.

The Speaker’s vehicle, was however not affected in the accident, but a police corporal Lamidi Akeem, who was in the affected vehicle, gave up the ghost at a hospital on Thursday.
