CRYSTAL BALL EXPECTATIONS FOR 2020 FROM MAESTRO'S MEDIA

So sorry that we are just coming out with this. And we are very happy again to welcome you all into 2020, a mystical year of great experience and expectations. Already as you can see, the year is running quite fast and we have already done about 9 days already and the 10th day is running out fast, the year is running 🏃 like there's somewhere it is racing to. So inevitably that already tells us all that, whatsoever it is we put our hands and minds on to do, we must do it quickly, as time truly waits for no one.

So again from the deepest most recess of our beautiful ♥ heart, we say all over again, WELCOME to the year 2020. That you are a part of the new year, new decade, is majorly because Grace and Mercy as brought you thus far. Some did actually cross over into January 1st 2020, but many have also crossed over to the great beyond already too, it wasn't like they planned it like that. So they actually saw it, but never tasted of the good therein. Even with all the preparations and New year resolutions planned and packaged.

May we all that have begun it in good health and with the hearts of excitable expectations, see it through till the very end with at least most of our expectations met. So that at the end of December 31, 2020, we would have exclaimed and exhaled and shouted that, God was great to us all and that we are far better than how we started it.

Thanks to the likes of Gbogbo Bigz Gal, Mama BornGirl, Aproko, Blair Witch, Fan, Oolong Darjeeling and many of you great Anon and many of those we couldn't readily recall now, all our great fans and uncommon supporters for standing by us through thick and thin. We appreciate you all, we Love you all equally and appreciate your time and effort and support. We also apologize for some of our shortcomings. May Goodness and mercy and grace wrap around you all like a vice all through 2020. May all your endeavors yield GREAT results and fruits too. May all your expectations not be cut off

Amen!!!!!!

WE ARE NOW ON OUR OWN PLATFORM www.maestrosmedia.com 

1. We are so elated to tell you all that we are finally moving fully to our own platform www.maestrosmedia.com . It has not been easy at all, but the creator has been kind and benevolent to us. It has been a labor of love and sacrifice. We are still not satisfied though, but we would not rest on our oars. We sincerely ask for your unflinching support and help to remain at the top. What we do is not easy at all, so send us hints, stories that fits our kind of package and all and we promise to do justice to such henceforth. Let's explore and do excellent things in 2020. The site is very ready as we speak. Check it out-www.maestrosmedia.com

A peek into our crystal ball like the famous Nostradamus would have done were he to have been alive reveals that-

Olori Shilekunola Morounke Naomi Ogunwusi 

OONI'S WIFE TO DROP BABY OR BABIES.

2. We are highly expectant as it concerns the household of our highly revered monarch of gracious gait. That's talking about Yoruba's Numero Uno royal father himself, in the person of his imperial majesty, 'Alaiyeluwa Oba Adeyeye Enitan Babatunde Ogunwusi, Ojaja II'. The one and only, most regal Ooni of Ife, a man of excessive panache & carriage, probably the most stylish royal father to date in Nigeria. 2020 would most probably or definitely be the year that Olori, that's his, stupendously gorgeous and mild mannared, prophet wife by name, 'Olori Shilekunola Morounke Naomi Ogunwusi' would most likely put to bed.

We are actually expecting either a twin or triplet and even if just one, either boy or girl, (we suspect an heir) no matter the gender though, we would still be most elated for the royal family; who are our equivalent of the English Royal Family. But something tells us though, that it's most likely going to be twin. That unpleasant elevator experience in our own opinion, though a funny and unfortunate experience could actually be a pointer towards something that would finally emerge and bring major relief at its emergence. Ninu ikoko dudu le ko funfun, tin jade (out of the blackened coal pot is where solid white palp comes from). The wise would understand.

Olori Hadiza Saheed Elegushi 

EXPECTATIONS IN HIGH GROOVE FOR QUEEN HADIZA TO DROP HER BAMBINO.

3. Still on the royal houses. All things being equal, the household of another regal monarch, a filthy rich monarch at that, in the person of Alaiyeluwa Oba Saheed Ademola Elegushi Kusenla III, the Elegushi of Ikateland and environs through his 2nd wife, in the person of the very dashing Olori (Queen Hadiza Saheed Elegushi) should also be expecting or better still be welcoming a new visitor in the mold of a bouncing baby (a bambino).

We hear though that maybe before or after the bambino or bambinos might have arrived, if things go as planned, we might be having the Lagos leg of the Kano ceremony too. An official Lagos Owambe to welcome Olori Gushi II, officially into Kabiyesi's harem. Meaning it could just be a 2-pronged off the hook celebration then.

May it happen as the royal family contemplates it.

Alaiyeluwa Oba AbdulRosheed Adewale Akanbi Telu 1, Oluwo of Iwo 

A REPLACEMENT FOR EX-QUEEN CHIN EAGERLY AWAITED.

4. Yet more on our royal fathers who are a lot in our focus this year. Remember that they are goldfishes without any hiding places. We are so very sure, in fact, we are ready to place a big bet on it that, a new Olori (queen) that would replace the former queen Chanel Chin is somewhere in the horizon already, waiting to be ushered into the palace of his royal majesty, Alaiyeluwa Oba AbdulRosheed Adewale Akanbi Telu 1, the Oluwo of Iwo, the self styled billionaire Emperor and representative of the God (god). The authority over the gods or is it deities, who had late last year sent his ex-wife a Canadian citizen and her child, their child packing in a most ignoble manner, that had raised eyebrows.

Kabiyesi would most definitely be in need of another trophy wife to take her place besides him. And a slim shady (copyright Eminem) we hear is already titillating though under the radar right now, the heart of Nigeria's most flamboyant, most outlandish king yet. To say it without much aplomb, all things being equal a new Olori is on her way in without a doubt. A lady is even said to have been seen around kabiyesi even if clandestinely, that's even before his fiasco with the now estranged ex-wife Chanel Chin became public.

Burna Boy

REIGNING INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTARS TO INVADE NIGERIA. BURNA BOY TO CART HOME THE GRAMMY.

5. All through the new year more very current international music acts from around the world (globe), by that we mean reigning ones would come visiting for one show or the other in Nigeria and also Ghana too. The inimitable Cardi B most probably gave us (Nigeria) the best PR ever that any international star could have given the country. That she came, saw and conquered, having 7 stars fun unlimited, which she spoke happily about for all to hear was a massive coup for us. Her testimony about Nigeria is going to make great impact on the international entertainment scene, so that those international stars have begun to have another better narrative of us.

Thanks also to the likes of Burna Boy, who is the current most marketable music star from Nigeria, then also Naira Marley, the lord of the Marlians movement, Nigeria's rave of the moment and other super stars like Wizkid, Davido, Kizz Daniel, Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade Nigeria's own undoubted music living legend 2Baba and a few more. Nigeria would continually enjoy the attention of the world too. There's the most certain likelihood that Burna Boy, who is currently "NIGERIA'S MOST STYLISH ENTERTAINER" bar none, would cart home the Grammy for which he has been nominated for, for the first time by a Nigerian winner or even real African act. This past Derty December 2019 was the most epic one ever, but it would most likely be beaten hands down by the upcoming 2020 edition. Burna is also most likely to surpass all other music stars in terms of earning in 2020.

To even let you know that crazy money is pouring in left, right, center in torrent. His mom's first class, 5-stars apartment in Ikoyi at Femi O..... is a sight to behold and his own place too, hmmmmmmm. Let's just leave it at that. The Rolls Royce, Ferrari are just a tip of the iceberg.

Mercedes Benz A-Class Maybach 

THE NEW ONIRU OF IRULAND LAGOS TO BE DECLARED.

6. Baring any unforeseen circumstances that could prolong the emergence of the new king, the next Oniru of Iruland, Lagos would have been declared before the end of the 1st quarter of the year, meaning by latest March of 2020, a king would have been announced take over the reign of the kingdom that used to be cast and very rich. If what we have seen in our crystal ball happens just as it should, then the new Oniru of Lagos, Alaiyeluwa..... Oba, would most likely be driven to the palace in a cascade of glory, in a gleaming, brand spanking new, top of the crop [2019/2020 Mercedes Benz S-Class Maybach]. This chariot of the super duper rich, is one of the most luxurious sedans in the world with a starting price of $175000 with 70% duty and other charges added it would come to about $297500 approximately $300000 which in Naira comes to N108m give or take. That kind of amount should point everyone somewhere.

If that car would be the official chariot of the new incoming royal father, it would actually then mean that status quo would actually be maintained somewhat, despite all of the intrigues that has followed the picking of the most eligible prince for the vacant throne.

Wink 😉.

THE NEW MARRIOTT HOTEL IN GRA, IKEJA SHOULD LIKELY BE OPENED.

7. Finally an authentic, a truly 4 to 5 stars hotel worth its salt, that cannot be questioned should be ready for operation latest, middle to the last quarter of 2020. Like you have already read from the subtitle, it is a Marriott hotel and it would be located in GRA, Ikeja super highbrow area of the mainland that can comfortably stand shoulder to shoulder with Ikoyi.

The 250 plus rooms investment is finally and slowly reaching finishing stages. It is owned by the Billionaire chairman of Sifax Group of Companies and Sahcol, who is the philanthropic father of LAX. When the place is fully functional, we can bet it would employ a high number of people in their hundreds. Dr. Taiwo Afolabi, the financier, is known to be one of the most benevolent of rich Nigerians ever in history. We hear that ex-beauty queen and event architect extraordinaire and lady of God, Ibidun Ighodalo is actively involved in the construction of the 4 to 5 stars hotel, at least as it has to do with the 1st class interior designs. When it opens it promises to be the best hotel in Lagos.

THE RAT RACE AMONGST THE FEMALE STARS/CELEBRITIES TO OUTDO THEMSELVES

8. On this very note it shall be very glaring. We mean the battle to outshine, out-wear each other. Many who cannot afford to buy G-wagons, would do all that's is humanly possible to get Range Rovers or other cars that they believe can assure them of bragging rights in this their rat race. Their Bermuda Triangle would indeed work over time this season. As they must announce themselves as the new 'yeyebrities' that have arrived anew. Get set to see the social media get flooded by stories of supposed new unprecedented acquisitions. Desperation would be to the power of  infinity. And nothing would be off limit. Their motto would infact be, "the end justifies the means. Grown ass men would literally walk and fall into open traps and would pay through their noses for it. Many would be pus@# whipped to submission and the end result would be someone celebrating new cars and things.

Just wait and see!!! 

HELEN OMORODION INEGBENIKI AT 4 DECADES & FOUR

Mrs. Helen Nwanne Inegbeniki nee Omorodion, is a very well known lady who needs no plenty or highfalutin introduction. A wealthy woman by all standards, both on her own by virtue of her own family, she's one of the children of the Odunanoba of Benin Kingdom, Prince Dr. Henry Omorodion and the sister to a her late billionaire elder sibling Prince Terry Uche Omorodion and then well consolidated by virtue of the fact that she is the wife of mercurial businessman and oil and gas money bag, Chief Francis Inegbeniki, the owner of Ineh Oil, who is a also a real estate juggernaut whom she got married to in 2014 at a most lavish (outlandish) of ceremonies, that got everyone's attention, due to the perceived amount of money that must have been spent to make it happen. Helen's mom is Barrister Chief (Mrs.)Philomena Omorodion, SAN aka Nwabuogho who would be 66 come July of 2020.

Over the years, anything, be it party, event of any kind that the Omorodion's or Inegbeniki hosts, were always a must be at. People always used to fall over themselves to get the invites or to be invited to their dos. All their parties were always off the hook, tipping the scale and extravagant, quite outlandish to put it lightly. And when we say extravagant, we aren't just talking about the plush food and drinks made available; by extravagance we mean in all ramifications, that includes the gifts that are given to those lucky enough to attend.

Just imagine parties where televisions, mobile phones, small fridges and other things are shared lavishly. Hmmmmmmm, so you now very well understand what we mean by positive extravagance. The food and drinks were a given. So the scramble for the invites were always epic.

So just juxtapose such expected lavishness side by side the quietude that now obtains in the life of the same person, as the lady of the house, who is the elder sibling of Nollywood practitioner, Lisa Omorodion, is 44 today.

She seem to have adopted this her more circumspect lifestyle since her beloved, very handsome and quite wealthy elder brother passed on due to complications of illness nor too too long ago. His untimely and painful passing hit the family very hard as he was a much loved person and a pillar of strength to all, in a closely knit family.

So today on her 44th birthday, instead of the expected jamboree like party that all were expecting, it's more like an exclusive dinner instead, to celebrate her hitting 2 scores and 4 years.

From us at Maestro's Media here, we happily say to her, a happy birthday and a more fun and fruitful and healthier years ahead.

Long may you live. 

WHEN 2 🐘 ELEPHANTS BATTLES, THE LESSER OF THE ELEPHANTS TAKES A BACK SIT & CHILLS IN IGNOMINY

So we nearly forgot, but thank God we remembered and it's better late than never at all. So you all remember the epic back ti back concerts that heralded the new year. December of 2019 was an epic one by all standards, fun wise it was packed full in every way you can imagine it. From Cardi B to Megan thee Stallion to Future to Zlatan to Wizkid to Burna Boy to Tiwa Savage To 2Baba to Davido to Kizz Daniel etc.

If you were a music star worth your salt, you would have been featured one way or the other. If you didn't show at any of the major shows, it just meant you would need to work more on your craft. 2020 sure plans to be fact more epic from the look of things. Both international stars and home grown stars would fall over themselves to outdo each other. Thanks to Cardi B, our PR has literally shut up to the stratosphere and totally gone out of the roof top, in fact has blown off the roof top.

So at one of the biggest shows of late 2019 which was that of Burna Boy an epic drama played out that we are too sure would still have residual effect most likely and most definitely. And if we can tag it correctly it was the battle of 2 humongous elephants, with excellent bragging rights all on their own. We can bet they would both try to do damage control after this story comes out, like it never happened.

On one side you have one of the best entertainment products/brands Nigeria has ever produced in the movie industry, in the person of the great giant with a Lionheart by the initials GN. She's is the award winning thespian extraordinaire. A super stylish mother of one at that. Whose flick caused a whole lot of brouhaha, when it was removed by a technicality from standing for one of the best international awards in 2019. On the other side we have a renowned professional, who was excellent in HR before she invested greatly in the entertainment industry where she has become an award winning colossus. She has been tagged our very own Oprah Winfrey and at the rate she's going, she would most probably become one of the richest and probably the most influential in the industry in not too long. She's not a local champion at all, as she's everyday gaining more & more international (clout) recognition by her deft moves. She's in fact one of Africa's most stylish human being alive bar none.

So like we said the mild drama unfolded at the Burna Boy sold out show at the Eko Hotel Convention Center. The place was packed out to the rafters. Those who were fortunate to have bought their tickets made crazy, easy money by reselling such tickets at exorbitant prices to willing buyers. Everyone wanted to watch the rave of the moment, the ultimate one for the season, so with demand vastly outstripping supply, the price shut up to the sky. It was at the venue of the show that 2 super stars literally clashed, though not necessarily face to face or Mano a Mano.

From a very trusted source-

So the renowned actress was a part of Wizkid's surging entourage that had come in into the venue. So check it out; MA and her homies (RO etc) were on the table right in front of us. We were VVIP so like directly on top of hers which was VIP.  MA is rocking out, and Wizkid enters the spot with his entourage.  Genny and that her homegirl Chinny are with Wiz’s gang.  Obviously everyone is greeting Wiz and Genny.  They now 'parked' right in front of MA’s table. Like right in front.  Full dancing and shii, blocking MA and them.  MA starts trying to tell them to move, Genny blanks.  Meanwhile bodyguards etc dey.  MA don dey frustrate, starts calling people left and right.  All blanking off.  Genny now looks back at MA gesticulating and goes ‘What??!!’  MA tries to respond like ‘you’re blocking me,’ and Genny gesticulates back ‘Fuck off!  Come and move me now.’  Genny gangster o.  MA still dey try yarn, Genny goes ‘I’ll pull of that wig off your fucking head, try me if you get mind.’  Debola now comes and goes to MA who starts reporting.  Debola sef, feeling like a peacemaker, now tries to go and talk to Genny.  Genny puts her hand up like ‘talk to the hand,’ and starts yarning with someone else.  Her homie is cracking up laughing bye.  She looks back and Debola is still there, she tells him to ‘Gerrout! Now!’  Guy was shamed, just quietly faded.  Omo then Geknny no budge throughout o.  MA’s friends had to stand on table to watch concert.  MA weak.  Until the end.  Dem Genny come bounce out with entourage at the end, still popping off hardcore.  

Genny 1- MA-0

Would there be a retaliation???? 

After THE UNPALATABLE REACTIONS TO HIS ASSERTION OVER NAIRA MARLEY'S DEMON PROPHECY, SELF-STYLED APOSTLE CHRIS OMASHOLA REACTS & RESPONDS ROBUSTSLY.

Apostle Chris Omashola 

Naira Marley

If you don't have the guts and cannot receive a return reaction or response that can be below the belt, you had better not stir the hornets nest and say anything against the Marlians or their leader, Akeem Fashola aka Naira Marley, whose is currently, one of the most popular Nigerian music star/entertainer today.

By his arrest sometime in early 2019, the EFCC someway, somehow in trying to do their job may have given validation or credence to an underground rising or still struggling star in the making and inadvertently, made him a star, with an unbelievable fan base to follow, who are referred to as Marlians.

The EFCC are the official bridge to Naira Marley’s rise and we are too sure that wasn't in their faintest plans at all. Maybe if there was a way they could have reversed what has now exploded, they would actually have done something about it. For many his arrest was what brought him tk their consciousness.

Since the dude emerged on the scene or better still busted out into our consciousness, you would be surprised by the number of other stars and celebrities who are closet Marlians. The growing movement from what we have learn't, is growing and increasing in leaps  and bounds daily and woe betides the person or persons that becomes the subject of their anger or negative attention. For these people, nothing is sacred or too low to use. They would engage you without any fear whatsoever and use whatever weapon is at their disposal. The Marlians, someway, somewhat and somehow, believes that they have some uncanny connect to their head and face-Naira Marley. So to them, an attack on one, is an attack on all. So in a way, their battle cry has somewhat become, "one for all and all for one". So just imagine have such a crowd as your enemy?

So self-styled Apostle of Christ, Chris Omashola of Zion of Life Assembly (ZOLA) in his predictions for 2020 had come out to say Naira Marley's songs are demonic and devil inspired, he apparently even said the musician himself is a DEMON, who needed to repent before it was too late.

Naira and his Marlians are said to have taken exception to such a tag and description and they went for the pastor's jugular. Same way they had done in their public fight with Policewoman Dolapo and ace veteran music star Ruggedman, who was even physically attacked in London, by this lot. Imagine them bringing attention back to the pastor's former misdemeanor, which had gone negatively viral when it occurred a few years back.

Apostle Chris Omashola had been involved in a quite unpalatable and terribly undermining sex scandal with a female member of his church, the leaked video of his lascivious actions is still available online for all to see on some porn site. So Naira Marley shooting from the hip with guns blazing in a way to get his own pound of flesh, apparently munched or took a screen shot of that debacle and posted same as a cryptic response to Apostle Chris Omashola's supposed or better still blind siding attack. Just imagine the avalanche of attack that immediately came against the man of God afterwards.

All of the bad reactions from Naira Marley and fans apparently got to Apostle Omashola and he has retorted thus-

“My sex tape issue is in my past and I have been forgiven by God. Nobody can intimidate me with it. I knew I sinned and I asked God for forgiveness and He has since forgiven me.”

“The bible says all have sinned and come short of God’s glory and God takes delight in the repentance of his children. I knew my wrong and went to ask God for forgiveness and he has forgiven me. It is now left for Naira Marley to heed God’s counsel and seek forgiveness. His music is not edifying to God and to anybody. It is demonic and misleading.”

I am not ashamed or cannot be shamed by Marlians of my yesterday’s mistakes which I have since repented from and God has forgiven me of. I have gone through series of repentance process as a man and with my head up and shoulders high, I have moved passed that. Come to think of it, what is Naira Marley’s Legacy to this generation?”

GLAD TIDINGS OVERLOAD CONVERGE ON THE OKOJIE'S HOUSEHOLD THIS SEASON. 4TH CHILD ON THE WAY & NOW LAUNCH OF HOTEL/EVENT CENTER HOLDS TODAY

Prince & Mrs Odianosen & Mercy Okojie

Okojie Family

All the praises on to God alone for the many goodness He alone has done. It's like when it rains in the household of the Okojies, that's talking about a Mercy Johnson Okojie and her husband Prince Odianosen Okojie, who have been married now for 8 years since August 27, 2011, it doesn't just fall down, it pours like a good torrential rainfall. You know that type that pours and pours and turns into a flood. And the family are so soaked with blessings, they are in fact swimming and luxuriating in it.

It wasn't too long ago, in fact just a few days back, when one of Nigeria's best ever thespian and one of the most successful at it and by extension one of the richest, had elatedly announced to the world that she was very expectant and her expectations was in the mold of a baby upcoming.

After already having had 3 kids, 2 gorgeous daughters and a son, well blessed and smart children for that matter, heaven has now thought to bless her further again with a 4th upcoming child. As we speak she's heavy with her 4th baby and she's most likely in her 3rd trimester. She had exclaimed that she had always wanted 4, but she had been happy with her 3 lovely kids. But the icing on her already beautiful cake has now been conceived and is already on the way. The couple even in an unprecedented manner, not too common in our clime elatedly released the scan of their baby for all to see. We are so so happy for the couple and cannot help them rejoice and thank God enough.

Hear her-

We’re having a baby ❤️❤️ I’ve always wanted 4 kids.... always. However, after 3 kids, I thought I had retired from the baby-making business. So a while back, we found out we had a baby on the way.

I can’t explain the joy and peace expecting our new baby has brought, or the cravings for food that have followed. I get so emotional easily, in fact right now I’ve started crying from joy again.

I’m sharing this with you my family for life, hanging on since day 1, growing with my family and I and always showing all the love. I love you all right back. Baby Okojie 2020 getting ready❤️ God bless you all!!"

But that's not the whole good news! Just as they are in high expectations of the 2020 baby, today, Saturday, December 21, 2019 just a few more days to the end of the year and the start of a new year, a new decade, all roads would be leading to a suburb of Lagos, Abule Egba to be more precise, where a new baby for the Okojies has arrived early and the new baby is named "Henod Luxury Hotels".

This new arrival is an Hotel cum bar, night club/lounge & a sizable events hall. The grand opening of this their new baby, that's so dear to their hearts is today from about 2pm and it would be celebrated with family members, friends and colleagues in tow.

Congratulations to the Okojies on their avalanche of blessings. May the outpourings continue. 

IT'S ANOTHER BIG ONE IN THE BAG FOR OMOTOKE MAKINWA.

Gradually, gracefully and quite steadily at it, without unnecessarily batting an eyelid, our very own highly celebrated celebutante of extraordinary proportion, by that we mean 'her royal swaggerliciousness', Nigeria's nos 1 petite bombshell of the awesome kind, is growing the brand, extending her tentacles, expanding her horizon, creating more higher steps to climb atop and quietly making the money by adding many more zeros to her already bulging accounts in several banks.

Just yesterday, Monday, November 11, 2019 to be more precise, she gleefully and gracefully announced to the world her newest money making collaboration, money making venture, as she is the newest ambassador/face of OPPO, the phone brand that was a major sponsor of the last Big Bro franchise, that was tagged "Pepperdem Gang'.

The way it is, it's like Omotoke Makinwa is the first face of the brand in the country, even the winner of the Big Bro Reality Series 2019, in the person of the yummy Mercy Eke hasn't even gotten a deal like this yet. So Toke getting it done, is a big deal and it shows how her stock is getting premium value.

This collaboration takes it several notches up for Toke, as a real deal influencer. We had thought about it a while ago, that what are you 'supposedly influencing' truly, if you are not collaborating with a brand worth its salt as either the face of such or its ambassador or in some other capacity. So now with this deal, the influencer and celebrity with over 3.1m followers on Ig alone, has shone that her passion and dedication has finally paid off and paid off handsomely too at that. This is obviously a multimillion Naira deal.

As the new face of Oppo phones in Nigeria, in fact the first face of the brand in Nigeria if we are correct, she would be the ambassador of their super slick, highest premium quality phone till date which is the 'Oppo Reno 2'. The Oppo Reno 2 is a premium phone in their range, like we have already made mention above with a standard 48 mega pixel back phone, which is like one of the highest in the world presently and it's a super fast phone too, using snapdragon 730G chipset (8nm), packing a staggering 8GB RAM memory and a storage capacity that can be expanded to 256gb, that's not for kids, for those who understands phones well. The body features are also very beautiful too, maybe it's one of the reasons the brand owners have thought to connect with the 'chic with the porcelain skin', whose time to shine has really come. It has an Aluminum body with 6.5 Amoled screen, with gorilla 6 glass at the front and Gorilla 5 at the back. It has the standard 2 cameras at the back, with a motorized pop-up front camera that's 16 mega pixel for beautiful selfies.

For someone who only just recently celebrated her 35th birthday, this deal is just the perfect birthday gift ever. With this now, Toke has transcended from just being an OAP-radio personality, a writer, an influencer, a lifestyle entrepreneur to a proper brand ambassador......

When we tagged her as our very own 'Kylie Jenner' in the making, some were sniggering than and saying how can that be possible. Seems like the journey has begun in earnest right in their faces. Hmmmmmm Doubters beware!

Life they say, life begins at 40, but it seems like for Toke, it begun long long before ago and she still has plenty years ahead to reach 40 still.

Congratulations 🎊.

You deserve it, as all the exposure that was counted as unnecessary,  is gradually paying off as was planned.

Kudos! 

MRS. WILLIE OBIANO DAZZLES WITH HER 1M PLUS NAIRA EYE SHADE OR GUCCI MASK.

Madam's husband Sir Willie Obiano, is the executive Governor of the richest or wealthiest Ibo state in Nigeria, that's talking about Anambra State. If we are right, it is believed that Anambra has the highest number of multimillionaires, billionaires, wealthy men and women of Ibo extraction.

So to be the chief executive of such a state is not just a little feat, you have to be packed too or you must be well supported by heavyweights. Sir Willie Obiano a former good friend of the former state Governor, Peter Obi adjudged to have been one of the best Governors to have ever ruled that state, is on to his 2nd and final term as a Governor.

In his first term as the State Chief  Executive, the former Executive director at Fidelity Bank, a bank that Peter Obi is acclaimed to have been one of the owners (the truth about that we do not know for sure), was adjudged to have done a pretty good job in governance & the delivery of the dividend of democracy to the delight of his people, that was before erstwhile friends Obiano & Obi, mentor and mentee fell apart not to reconcile again till now.

It seems like this 2nd term has just been, just that, just moving with the tide having the fun that Governing a state makes happen. Nothing extraordinary unlike in the first term have been heard, except that madam first lady of Anambra, Mrs. E V Obiano is a fashionista worth her salt.

Madam was seen recently wearing what the designer brand-Gucci called a eye mask, that's how they described this gasp inducing eye wear. Normally you had seen such a spectacle more on a much younger person, maybe someone more in the entertainment industry seeking for attention. With the position of First Lady of a whole state, would madam be in need of attention again? Especially as we have told you the kind of state her husband is in charge of! But truth be told ooooo, Madam Ebele V. Obiano according to the gist is actually the de facto Governor of Anambra state, while her husband the actual is supposedly the Chief of Staff. According to the gist, the woman who used to be so quick at landing slaps on the face of any who tries nonsense in the state, even made her former maid in Lagos, the Commissioner for Women Affairs.

So with this madam's dazzling fashion display, maybe she is exploiting or better still, exploring her youthfulness, like maybe some of those things she never did when she was in her teens or younger age, now with a good opportunity given, why not do it all? And who says she shouldn't wear such an eye wear, if she has the confidence to carry it? Anyway, any how one can bring attention to Anambra State is a good way, so we think.

At the end of the day, the Gucci Limited Edition EyeMask is just a mere 1plus million Naira at $2755 to N365, a chicken 🐔 feed to Madam First Lady. Why would anyone dare to want to see the eye of a goddess?

Kudos!!! 

TOYIN LAWANI SHUTS DOWN THE INTERNET WITH FULLY NUDE EXPOSE SHOWING BRUSHED OUT NIPPLES & HAIRLESS BERMUDA TRIANGLE! !

Can anything unexpected or more shocking or mouth or jaw opening ever come out again from multi-talented, serial entrepreneur Toyin Lawani? Seems like nothing ever! The only other thing she can do now after going completely starker for all to see on the 'world wide web' would be for her to make love openly without any regard on the internet. And even at that, could that one also be a no go area for this lady?

We aren't too sure again.

It is obvious from this her latest action/photo-shoot that the multi-talented lady who is the mother of 2, would do whatever it takes to get across to her teeming fans, audiences and followers-officially about 600000 plus on Instagram, but reputed in general to be far more than the number displayed.

In this her very latest most outrageous and most mouth opening ever post so far, the award winning designer cum stylist (she has a long list of who-is-who that she styles) cum spa owner (she's a certified spa operator) cum beauty-preneur (she manufactures her own range of beauty and body products) cum eatery owner (Amala joint & more) etc, didn't think twice to go completely nude naked (no bra, no panties, nothing covering her vitals except that the 'hairless bermuda triangle' and her twin assets with the (nipples) were slightly brushed out, to advertise her new beauty product tagged Egyptian milk.

And just to show all and sundry that she puts her money where her mouth is, as she's probably the best advert for her own products, she decided to remove all semblance of clothes, including underwear to show the excellence of her products. If her body is a true testament to those products, then we can tell you easily that these new products would most probably sell out in a moment. 

And in anticipation of any form of backlash that could emanate for doing the shocking move or doing the super risqué shoot, she's told naysayers in very strongly worded response to go jump off the 3rd mainland bridge into the lagoon for all she cares.

The 30 something year old mother of 2 (an adorably very smart & highly intelligent teenage daughter and a star in the making son), is probably going to win the award of the "most daring, most shock proof celebrity" ever till date, as she is probably the only celeb or star to have deliberately by her own self, used her own very naked pictures that wasn't leaked by others, on the internet.

Toyin seem to have become the 'chief advocate' and 'chief/ultimate' advertiser of flaunt it if you have it association (FIIYHIA). Even Toke Makinwa would think thrice before she would go this route. Or would she?

And with this shoot especially the one where she was on all 4s, showing how her body after 2kids seem to have defied gravity, no saggyness or drooppiness of any kind, especially those 2 kilimanjaros on her chest, that are still standing 'kpam-kpam' like they have never been touched nor sucked!!!

Yah or Nah?

Still on the bodacious shoot, she also collaborated with the only lady in the world, whose waist as continued to raise questions as it defies understanding and description that's talking about Gambian star or celeb Princess Shyngle, 2 badass shapely ladies in near nakedness showing off their assets to the world.

LIVE AT THE FACE OF ZIKEL 2019 CAMP

Zikel Cosmetics is a Nigerian beauty brand that is set to give all others in the same business a run for their money. The growing concern that's already shaking the beauty industry powerfully, has about '50 products' under their brand, and that's still growing too. In just under a few years of her existence, going to just 3 years to be more precise, it has extended her growing tentacles across Nigeria and even the West African sub-region via franchising and other marketing channels and its still growing steadily in leaps. Many who have used & are still using their various products, readily testifies to the reliability of the many products in the range.

A testament to how good their products are, is also in the level of their brand ambassadors, who have endorsed the brand in just 3 years of existence. They have had 3 brand ambassadors so far, and they are all very well known, quite stylish personalities in the entertainment industry, who all hold their own very well. There's Halima Abubakar, thr Kogi bombshell actress and producer, there's the awesomely beautiful Mercy MacJoe and then the most current and the biggest of them all so far, being the one and only Tonto Dikeh. Who was signed on, not too long ago with loads of fanfare, to a very 'lucrative contract', said to be one of the biggest in the country so far.

Zikel Cosmetics prides itself as an 'affordable luxury' range of beauty products made for the 'African woman of distinction', who wants to use beauty products that helps to bring out her best features, without having any adverse effect whatsoever on her skin. Their products, are clinically tested for the most delicate skins, so it's not just about selling alone, what the products help to achieve at the end is very important too. .

As part of the brand's ideology/philosophy to contribute her own quota to the society by been very 'socially responsible', it has organized its own unique type of beauty contest which it has called the "Face of Zikel international 2019" to empower young and beautiful ladies. The upcoming unique beauty event with her grand finale slated for Sunday, July 14, 2019 at the prestigious Bespoke Event Center, Lekki, Lagos is the maiden edition of the annual contest and it promises to be a massive event by all standards possible. Already invitation cards have gone out a great deal and many stars in the country and other celebrities plus those involved in the beauty field have promised to storm the classy event in great numbers.

We were at the camp where about 50 plus stunning contestants from all over the country and even from outside are camped and going through rigorous competitive drills to prepare them ahead for the Sunday, grand finale.

In all, about 10 titles would be competed for, some would be won at the camp and the others would be at the grand finale proper. The titles on line for prospective winners are the: Face of Zikel World: Universe: Photogenic: Popularity: Amity: Glamour: Tourism: Ecowas:  & Charismatic. The main title though is the Face of Zikel world 2019 and the lucky winner, would on Sunday be carting home a million Naira (1 million NAIRA cash): would embark on an all expenses paid trip to Dubai, the UAE: 6 months unlimited supply of Zikel Cosmetics products amongst many things that the winner and other consolidation prizes that others would cart home.

It has been fun galore at the camp as we speak, been the 1st day of camp, the gals had their accreditations done and were introduced to the products and then grilled on the rules of the camp and other things by their pageant manager who was assisted by the chaperones. After a quick change, they thereafter had a swell welcome party by the pool side of their camp venue. All were looking very hot🔥 & smashing in their swimsuits and bikinis. The gals came from all over Nigeria, including a contestant that flew in from the UK and about 2 from Ghana. The camp is on till Sunday as more activities and surprises are still in store for the contestants as packaged by Zikel Cosmetics, the organizers of the Face of Zikel international 2019 competition.

Check out a few of the pictures of the contestants that we met today.

MEN ON FIRE🔥. SURFING THE INTERNET WITH INTENT, PROWLING TO CATCH GULLIBLE ANTELOPES & WANNABES. !!!! HAVE OUR MEN NOW TURNED TO DESPERADOS?

Seems like girl chasing has now become a major game now, like the video games children play always. Yeah, we know that men have always loved to hunt looking for the easy prey to hook. It's like the lion or cheetah or tiger or hyena or those wild dogs in packs we watch on NG, chasing after the antelopes or warthogs or other preys that they can easily overpower and tear apart. But instead of tearing apart in this case, it's about getting down into the nitty-gritty of the 'Bermuda Triangle', that supposed holy enclave and if possible, wound it mercilessly to the utter detriment of the owners. Most often many of thr men involved in these game even share, once one is done and has experienced the bliss involved, he would give his other pack of wolves the dimensions so they also too can go after the prey too. So when the prey feels she's supposedly enjoying the good attention of the alpha males, her property is just been shared around by these men, only for the sake of marking the register.

It's been the norm from God's knows when. Where the seemingly stronger ones preys on the weaker more somewhat helpless ones. But are these preys, in these case the various ladies, weaklings at all?

What makes the lion and the likes, other wild animals, is their love for the chase and the kill and it seems like men too have now adopted or adapted these 'animal skills and instincts' now too to grab all of these available chicks & do with them just as they wish.

Young men, old men alike, married or single, rich and not so okay, now surf the internet, most especially the popular social media sites, especially various online meeting spots/platforms likes of the Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Badoo etc like a mine field to sweep in, to catch treasures or trap wannabes, those whose treasure troves are easy to meander through.

And you would be surprised to know, the many names of those who engage in the act. Their profiles are always on point. They have many of those names you would want to be seen to engage with. On their sites you would view the lives of the fun loving, who mixes well, they are the supposed right crowd. It's a life you view on the gram and you would most definitely want to be a part of, but the truth actually is, it's a (caveat emptor) - meaning 'buyers beware'. Before you know it, any lady that falls into the obvious trap would live to regret it at end of the day. Not until that Bermuda Triangle have been summarily dealt with and the value sapped from it, before it would be released again for the world's consumption.

Who are these men who engage in this game of deceit and who are their many victims too? If you know them, let's talk about them.

Proviso though, no full names!
