TOP THESPIAN CELEBRATED MARRIAGE ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSE

It was a very much publicised union that was well celebrated on the pages of the papers and very well reported on the social media sometime ago, with much pomp and pageantry, but alas according to what we hear now, it is already on the verge of collapse, except something very drastic is done about it and quickly too for that matter! And this is just in how long????

According to a particular gist, the marriage itself in the first instance was stage managed! Thespian while married was seen in private, in very very cosy relationship with that top very married government official known to always have dalliances with the hottest chics in town.

Maestro's Media: OBAS AT WAR. OBA OF LAGOS VS. OONI OF IFE.

OBAS AT WAR. OBA OF LAGOS VS. OONI OF IFE.

OONI OF IFE

OBA OF LAGOS

The two are known as 1st class kings of repute, especially as the stool they represent are highly revered. The Ooni, being the Obaluaye of Ife is respected as the overall king of kings in the South Western part of Nigeria, he is so well respected that other kings from the South West accord him the 1st position in their hierarchy, this is by virtue of history and the importance accorded to the stool he occupies.

The Oba of Lagos, also referred to as the Olowo Eko (the rich one of Lagos) also occupies a note worthy stool too. By virtue of him being the paramount ruler amongst the kings in the state alone, that stands him out.

Whilst the Ooni Adimula stool is occupied by a former businessman in the person of Ooni Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, who is in his 40s, kabiyesi the Oba of Lagos, is a retired AIG of Police, in the person of Oba Riliwan Akiolu, known for his no nonsense attitude and approach,.....who says and acts it, as he sees it and he is not known for comprise all.

So at an occasion yesterday, where Oba Rilwan Babatunde Akiolu and the Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnanyelugo Alfred Nnaemeka Achebe were already seated. In comes, the Ooni, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi. Normally because of who he is and being the paramount ruler of the Yorubas, his entrance is always heralded by much razzmattaz and dazzling display of praise and colours which always adds pomp to his entrance. This well practised, choreographed entry ritual could and might intimidate others who normally do not have such displays often; coming in the Ooni did what was considered right, as he went to acknowledge the other royal fathers already seated, only for the Oba of Lagos, to totally dismiss the highly revered Ooni with a wave of the hand, like a nobody!

Shock, embarrassment and shame all fought and jostled for attention immediately.  And this was played out in public! What could have warranted such open display of disdain? Could the Oba of Lagos have felt that he was upstaged or what? Was there already a lingering tussle of any kind between the 2 before? Or could it have been that the Oba of Lagos, feels that the kind of prominence enjoyed by the Ooni, and the respect from around the world since he rose to the throne, from all over the seems too much? Has there been an encounter before that warranted such a display?

Even if there was any at all, that they both are prominent royal fathers of note, couldn't the more elderly Oba of Lagos in his 60s have dealt with it with more decorum and in private?

The questions above and many others are the types that have since sprung up since the unroyal and unpalatable actions of Oba of Lagos. Many already feels that it's an open display of the desecration of a highly revered throne and crown.

One hopes that the elders in the land, would quickly come together to resolve the issues before they escalate further. 

THE LEGEND OF THE GODFATHER REVISITED

We all know who this platform normally refers to as the godfather. This extraordinary, the Kogi born deep pocket was one personality that showed all other rich and famous in the country what wealth or better still a colossal amount of money in the hands of an enjoyable fellow could do.

Many ladies, for he had his spec, enjoyed his great largesse and favour and became millionaires in their own right for it. The testaments to his goodwill liters here and there and they are not consigned to the African continent alone.

Legend had it then, that when the going was still extremely good (though still okay), that was before this particular so called "wizard-hunting" government came into power to start scrutinizing and investigating everything, whenever the godfather moves, he moved then with several bales of cash in hard currency- Pounds, Dollars, Euros in bags and with intimidating security personnel to guard him. Shuttling in any of the several private jets available to him across the continents. When the elements were still gathered in support of the godfather, to mention Naira then in his company, was like showing your status.

When the godfather enters a store, a lounge, an hotel or just about anywhere, it was like Christmas day had come earlier than it should and the whiff of raw cash makes everyone go gaga turning them to potty in his hands.

To buttress our point more effectively, the godfather was in America at a point and met that very famous stunning lady, that is a major feature in that reality television series in America, with the awesome body. He found out upon introduction that, apart from appearances on the series, she was also into event management to augment her earnings. So they exchanged contacts.

UNLEASHING CY THE RAMPANT! THE EVOLUTION OF YOUNG GULLIBLE DAMSEL

Imagine that the damsel we are introducing to you is as gorgeous as they come. One of the very best way to describe her is that she's stunningly beautiful and she knows it, in fact she would win a beauty contest hands down any day.

Wherever she goes and even in the midst of other beautiful and sexy ones, she always manages to stand out. She's always the cynosure of all eyes. And because of the attention she gets, she revels in it, swims in it and enjoys it with abandon.

Cy is a shortened version of her name, still in her 20s and a graduate at that. She's very stylish and sexy just to add to the whole aura of attraction, like some would say, she knows what the time says.

COLOURS, GLAM, GOOD GATHERING AT THE WOMANRISING 2017

UGOMA ADEGOKE-convener

RICHARD MOFE DAMIJO-RMD

UGOMA ADEGOKE & TAIWO AJAI-LYCETT

As expected of Ugoma Adegoke, the boss at Zebraliving and the convener of the annual gathering of super talented women known by all as "Woman Rising"; which is a music concert and arts weekender, packaged as a series of events with spotlight on musical and creative/artistic women, aimed as a networking platform, this year's event packaged a major punch and razzle dazzled as usual, like it has always done.

It was as colourful as expected, very fun in all ramifications, with many gorgeous and stylish ladies in attendance and a few very hunkish men in tow, to give their other halves supports, while some just came along to have good fun too, it actually delivered on all counts.

The series of events was over 2 days, Saturday and Sunday, April 8 & 9, 2017, at 2 exclusive but different venues, The Wheatbaker Hotel & Federal Palace Hotel, both on the island, Ikoyi & Victoria Island to be more precise.

There was good music in abundance, fun chit-chats, good skits/comedy as provided by the incredible Chigurl and all round great entertainment. This 2017 edition was the 7th in the series.

One of the guests at the event was PR impressario and author Toni Kan, who also is the editor-in-chief at Sabinews. Some of the others we saw were the likes of Herbert Wigwe, MD/CEO of Access Bank Plc, the hunk known and better addressed as RMD, the super talented duo of Lala Akindoju & Chigurl as compere and comedienne, Ego Boyo and very many others.

Check out the incredible pictures of the happenstance as taken by the duo of Adesokan and Anazia, below.

Kudos to the convener, the super gorgeous and good hearted Ugoma Adegoke, for another excellent event, which continues to get better and better every year. So 2018, here they come.

Over 40 more pictures below.

SAD LOSS FOR PR IMPRESSARIO MAGNUS ONYIBE

KIKAOSE EBIYE ONYIBE

Not the very best of time presently in the household of quintessential PR guru and erstwhile Commissioner for Information for Delta State during the regime of Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, in the person of Magnus Ebiye-Onyibe.

The soft spoken man, who is very well respected by all, lost is adorable, very beautiful and highly cerebral 18 year old daughter to the very cold hands of death, some days back, Wednesday, April 12, 2017 to be more precise.

Her untimely demise came via complications from a ruptured appendix, and a subsequent unsuccessful surgery at a private hospital, Gold Cross Hospital, Bourdillon Road, Ikoyi, LAGOS.

Kikaose Ebiye Onyibe but better called Kika by family and friends, prior to her death was a 2nd year undergraduate of law at the University of Birmingham in the United kingdom. She's said to have been a God fearing young lady, whose good passion for God, even led her to lead a fellowship comprising of her mates.

If not for death, Kika would have been celebrating her 19th birthday come April 29, 2017 being born April 29, 1998. She's survived by her doting parents, Magnus and Helen Ebiye Onyibe and 2 siblings, Sopuluchukwu and Ebubechukwu.

Service of songs/commemoration service is slated for today, Monday, April 17, 2017 and internment follows tomorrow, Tuesday, April 18, 2017 at Ebony Vaults From 10 am.

May her gentle soul rest in peace. 

AHMED UWHUBETINE IS BACK IN TOWN

Celebrated man about town, the one and only socialite known and addressed as Ahmed Uwhubetine, owner of the now defunct 1145 is back in town and as usual and as expected of him, being the happy go lucky fellow unparalleled, he sauntered into SIP lounge last night, Friday, April 15, 2017 to much hailing and back-slapping just to relax with a few friends.

The dude who is much loved by many of his pals, had been away for quite a while, especially after that accusation that came up sometime ago. Though that accusation was vigorously denied by many of his friends, the fun loving dude still made sure to keep a very low profile for a long time, making many to speculate unnecessarily.

Now that he has come back and has appeared for many to see, maybe the good times has begun to roll in again and he has begun to "ball" in the high powered way as usual all over again, because like they always say about Ahmed, there's never a dull moment when this artistic man is in the mix. He knows how to have fun and have it real good.

We heard Sujimoto and a few friends were around too.

Welcome back bro.

You have been sorely missed! 

WOULD THUNDER"BOLT" STRIKE IN LAGOS FOR LAGOS @50?

The question above is what the organisers are doing their very best to answer. But as it is right now, all things being equal, the Jamaican sprinter known to have obliterated and annihilated all comers to his throne in the last few years, the fleet footed one, who would give a Cheetah or a racehorse, a run for their money, the personality known and referred to by the name Usain "the thunderbolt" Bolt, is getting ready, getting set, preparing to hit the shores of Lagos, the state of aquatic excellence, where the man of action, Akinwunmi Ambode controls the rein of affairs very effectively.

THE RISE AND RISE OF SEYI TINUBU, ASIWAJU's ENIGMATIC SON

Sincerely what else would one have expected from the most visible son of the famous Jagaban Borgu, in the person of  Seyi Tinubu?

SEYI & DAD-ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU

The son of the amiable Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a top chieftain of the APC, showed that he had arrived on the scene with his one of a kind wedding that took place in Nigeria and extended to Lake Como, in Milan, Italy last year (2016), when he took as his partner for life, the delightsome and highly cerebral former Miss Layal Jade Holm now Tinubu.

Since that eventful nuptial, which had the creme of the society in attendance, though it was by far a much muted ceremony than what was expected by many, due to the fact that the parents especially that of Seyi being very high ranking members of the ruling APC party, didn't want to be seen as being ostentatious in the midst of the economic downturn in Nigeria, so they decided to tone down on everything. A quick and impromptu engagement/traditional wedding took place, before the white wedding which was done abroad, with only a "few" in attendance. The few here means just about a hundred (100) people!

Main.

PROPHET AYODELE FAYOSE THE MAN WHO SEES TOMORROW

Governor Ayodele Fayose

The above caption rightly describes the Executive Governor of the good state of Ekiti.

Prophets all over the world are very well known for one of their great gifts/abilities, which is that ability to see or foretell the future. That ability doesn't just end there alone, it allows them also to be able to rightly understand the things of the past too, and to be able to decipher what the God is saying now, so all of these abilities and more are great and good and important, that is of course if and when the prophet is actually a true mouthpiece of the God.

LIKE A PHOENIX, FOLORUNSHO COKER RISES AGAIN BECOMES DG NTDC

It has been celebration galore and good back slapping since the Federal Government last Friday, March 31, 2017 announced via the SSA, Femi Adesina the names of new helmsmen for some Government agencies and parastatals across the nation.

Amongst the names that was conspicuously mentioned and was given a very important portfolio to man, was none other than the erstwhile, Commissioner for Tourism and Culture in Lagos State, the very debonair, Folorunsho Coker.

At his former post handling Tourism and Culture for the state of aquatic excellence, he acquitted himself very well and showed unprecedented dynamism in handling the affairs of that ministry; people had never had it that great before, so when he left abruptly many were quite taken aback. Though that apparent abruptness took many by surprise, many of those who knew him well, knew it was just a matter of time, before he would bounce back with something as equally important as what he had just left.

Now like the proverbial ram, that withdrew back a bit or that took a reverse track, his wasn't out of fear, but he only went back to gain more momentum (power), so as to launch back, more determined and more focused than before.

Folly Coker, like many who know him prefer to call and address him, as risen like a phoenix and taken on a new life entirely and would be the one to manage our tourism and culture outlook across the nation, his short time doing same with Lagos State Government must have spoken so well about him, to warrant this new appointment.

So we expect the formidable fellow to hit the ground running, while bringing sanity to an agency that has faced loads of controversies and unnecessary distractions of late, not only that though, he is expected to totally resuscitate the life of the same brand, for the best of the country.

We wish him the very best of luck in this task and congratulations.

Congratulations.  

SWANKY JERRY FAVOURS HIS FEMININE ALTER EGO

He is known to most stars and celebrities across the continent. According to what we hear, he is on speed dial to most of them, they be male or female, reason been, he is a stylist of the extraordinaire kind, who has horned his gift and skills over the years and so, many have come to believe in him and trust him to project their image well. Remember that perception is key.

His clientele reads like the who-is-who of the entertainment industry, from the famous Kenyan bombshell with the stupendous body, in the person.of Vera "VeeBossett" Sidika, who he is said to be very close to, to Ghanaian hotness on clerk, Juliet "the Angel" Ibrahim, to the "white lion and big fish" himself, D Banj, even ace musician Ice Prince is part of the list, just to name a few. Heard he had something little to do too, when Ciara, the famous American musician came in for a concert last year.

The dude loves fashion to a fault and he is ever experimenting, on trends and styles so as to be many steps ahead of the unrelenting competition.

He is seen here in a very recent picture in beautiful, Sandton, Joburg, South Africa, in his "stylish glory", in an all black flowing, full length ensemble/gown, happily showing off his feminine side with much aplomb and super audacity.

Would this be the face of fashion/style/trend in the next few seasons? Men "men" in feminine apparels?

We don't know yet, but let's wait and see if the trend catches fire!

What we have always known though, is that stylists, fashionistas et all, have always had a way by which they start a trend. And the stylish crowd then takes a cue and follow.

Gown for men? Yes or No?
