Is Genevieve Nnaji Pregnant For D'banj?

This is the cover of news of the people magazine published in Lagos Nigeria this week. One of the major stories talked about the story of pregnancy rumour trailing star actress, Genevieve Nnaji.

In recent times, there have been speculations that she was dating D'banj. Personally, I heard this pregnancy tale about two months ago from a close source in the Mohits camp...but did not give it much thought, but for it to surface again, and this time on tabloids, hmnnn....only time will tell, after 9months na!

The kidnappers want 6m, all the money I have is 200,000 - John Okafor

John Okafor and wife, Stella Maris Okafor 

"I spoke to the kidnappers at 12pm Jan 7th, they demanded for 6m, but all I have is N200, 000, which I told them. My colleagues have been very sympathetic but none of them have come forward to say I'm supporting you with so, so amount. I don't know whether they are expecting me to come cap in hand to see for their assistance." John Okafor to Azuh Arinze of Encomium mag.



This guy must be joking right? After more than 20 years in the movie industry he only saved about 2000. Well, I just hope he is saying that so the kidnappers can have mercy on him. Please, stakeholders of Nigeria movie industry, friends and colleagues of Mr Ibu should do something and get his young wife out.

Nigeria's top banker wins international recognition

CBN Governor, Mr. Sanusi

Nigeria is frequently cited as one of the most corrupt countries in the world, but its central banker has won two international banking awards.
Mallam Lamido Aminu Sanusi has been named as the Central Bank Governor of 2010 for both the African continent and the entire world, by the prestigious Banker Magazine.
The editor of the magazine, Brian Caplen, says that few candidate names generate an overall consensus on judging panels, and yet, when it came to finding the best global central bank governor of the year, Mr Sanusi was chosen unanimously.
Some positive news for Nigeria

People Opposing Women Abuse ad

This is an experiment conducted in a South African neighborhood by the People Opposing Women Abuse organization to show the common mentality of some of the inhabitants towards domestic abuse.  The experiment consists of a member playing his drums late @ night and being threatened by neighbors and then playing a loud recording of a domestic dispute but not even getting a peep from a window from his neighbors. This video is compelling because it not only shows the nonchalant reaction to abuse in general but also indicates that this is not just a problem in South Africa but the world over.

I read the building belongs to a ‘yahoo yahoo’ boy, Mr J.J Fine Country, also known as, ‘The thing that swallowed the thing that swallowed the elephant.’

From the report about the house, Mr J.J was adamant that his building was as beautiful as any in the country: “They say my house is not beautiful? They are mad. Who dem be sef? Wey dem? They sef don build house? Abegi, make I hear word. If na poverty dey worry dem, make dem talk to me, I go settle the baggers. This na Lagos, nothing wey settlement nor fit settle. Aso rock sef dey catch cold when im see my mansion.”

Man declared innocent after 30 years in prison

 Cornelius Dupree Jr., center, smiles 

Texas man declared innocent Tuesday after 30 years in prison had at least two chances to make parole and be set free — if only he would admit he was a sex offender. But Cornelius Dupree Jr. refused to do so, doggedly maintaining his innocence in a 1979 rape and robbery, in the process serving more time for a crime he didn't commit than any other Texas inmate exonerated by DNA evidence.
"Whatever your truth is, you have to stick with it," Dupree, 51, said Tuesday, minutes after a Dallas judge overturned his conviction.
Under Texas compensation laws for the wrongly imprisoned, Dupree is eligible for $80,000 for each year he was behind bars, plus a lifetime annuity. He could receive $2.4 million in a lump sum that is not subject to federal income tax.
