Psquare’s Big White Wedding To hold In Dubai.

P-Square, one of the most successful entertainment duo & most probably the richest entertainment duo in Nigeria till date are set to storm the superlative & picturesque town of Dubai, UAE for a double wedding come April of 2014. According to the little gossip that we have gotten the duo are working out the modalities towards having the double wedding. They haven’t yet picked a particular date in the month of April though, but they are quietly working on where, when and how.
Remember that Peter and Lola had their traditional wedding the last quarter of 2013 (Sunday, November 17, 2013 ) in what many have tagged one of the biggest entertainment event of 2013. Not too long afterwards, the brother Peter was said to have also proposed to his own baby mama-Anita Isama.
So if all things work out as planned the 2 brothers would walk down the aisle together with their heartthrobs (Lola & Anita) come April of 2014 and we can confirm to you that accept for some extraordinary last minute change of heart, the venue for the planned superlative wedding is most definitely Dubai.

Unbelievable WAEC ‘Cheaters’ Return Certificates After Giving their life To Christ

In what may come as a big surprise to most people, no fewer than 14 people recently returned certificates issued to them by the West African Examinations Council (WAEC).
Why? Because according to them, they had to give up the certificates because they cheated during the examination, and now as people who gave their life tomChrist, they actually could not live with “the sin and guilt.”
The Sun News reports that some individuals approached the West African Examination Council (WAEC) through letters seeking means after confessing how they dubiously acquired their certificates when they wrote the examinations at various centres and years.
The Council wrote back to them, stating that what they were expected to do was to return the certificates awarded in line with the rules and regulations guiding the conduct of the examinations.
However, only a few responded, including a holder of Teachers’ Grade 11 certificate, OMG!!!.
It was learnt that those who complied with the directive returned their certificates to various WAEC offices nationwide and the council took their case to the Nigeria Examinations Committee (NEC), which, at its 55th meeting in Lagos, cancelled the returned 15 certificates. This is truely Unbelievable , A whole certificate... Nigerians Tho , well who is more powerful than baba God? Kosi!

Rita Dominic Sells Movie At Lekki Lagos

The movie industry, according to recent indices, is falling in terms of patronage of films being churned out on DVDs and CDs. Instead of buying the original release, movie buffs go for the pirated copies which are packaged in a 10-in-one DVDs.
Even at the cinemas, Nigerians prefer to watch foreign movies which have better storylines and deliveries, and which is also believable. These foreign movies also take their viewers’ consciousness away from the make-believe world into the real world while watching them, which is one thing Nollywood is lacking.
At the recently concluded Lekki Phase 1, Lagos Festival, star actress, Rita Dominic used the occasion to turn herself into a movie seller. While the event was set up for residents of the area to have fun, Rita saw the business side of it and gladly grabbed the opportunity to sell DVDs of her film, The Meeting.
Rita got a stand at the event and personally sold the movies to those at the event. Ini Edo, who is a resident of the area, was also at the carnival as well as Kate Henshaw.
The problem with our Entertainment industry according to me is , they dont wanna learn , mere watching any Nigerian film , you can tell what will happen at the end .. If they can change their story lines and movie structures , Nollywood Nigeria would be one of the Best.

Breaking News: Police Arrests 37year old man who flogs cousin to death.

The police in Ogun State have arrested a 37-year-old man, Kayode Olubunmi, for allegedly flogging his cousin to death on Christmas Day last year.
Olubunmi was said to have allegedly flogged 20-year-old Haruna Adeoye to death for eating up a bowl of cooked rice earlier given to him (Olubunmi) by a friend.
Adeoye said to be an orphan was alleged to have eaten the rice while Olubunmi was away from home – contrary to his uncle’s earlier instruction that it should be reserved for dinner.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, Muyiwa Adejobi, in a statement made available to newsmen in Abeokuta, explained that the tragedy occurred last December 25 at  Ajegunle, Ita-Oluwo, Ogijo, in Sagamu Local Government Area of the state at about 10.30pm
The police claimed that Olubunmi, who returned home drunk, was infuriated by his cousin’s effrontery and while meting out corporal punishment to Adeoye, it resulted in his death.
Adejobi said, “ When the suspect, who went on a visit to his  friends’ place, came back  drunk, he  flogged the deceased to death with a stick for eating the rice he instructed him to keep  for their dinner.
“Haruna was an orphan  who had been staying with  the  suspect   for years  and Olubunmi could not state why he killed him.
“He (suspect) has confessed to the crime,  he is with us at SCID Eleweran and will soon appear  in court.” Because Of Christmas Rice , what is our country turning to ?

Dillish BBA the Chase Winner Buys Housemate Elikem Power Bike

Namibian Big Brother Africa (BBA) The Chase winner Dillish Mathews lived up to her words to fellow housemate and third runner-up, Elikem Kumordzie from Ghana by buying him a brand new Suzuki GXSR 1000cc Motor bike.
The reality TV stars made a pact while in the BBA house that if either of them won the grand prize ($300,000), they would buy something special for each other.
After fourth months (August 25, 2013) she was pronounced the 2013 BBA winner; Dillish who acknowledged that they were both drunk while making the bet, announced the surprise gift on Instagram.
‘Finally got my brother the bike he said he would buy if he won. We made a bet on this and I am a woman of my word. Enjoy it buddie and be safe’, Ms Mathews said to Elikem on the social media platform.
A grateful Elikem has since responded to Dillish’s kind gesture; ‘thanx hun. U kept ur word. LOVE LOVE all over u,’ he said.
With praises and appreciation from fans flooding her Twitter Timeline, Dillish pointed there is more in giving than in receiving and reiterated that she would do it over again. Here is A picture Preview Of the Bike Below...


How To Please Your Female Partner In Relationships

You got a call from your friend, who invites you to hang out with the guys on Saturday night. An old college buddy is in town and will be joining you. You are excited to go. However, your girlfriend has a class until 10pm on Friday, so Saturday is your only date night together. You senses that your significant other will not be happy about this, but you also are entitled to a night with the guys. 
However, you forget to tell her about your plans until 3pm that Saturday, while she is excitedly proposing a few things you could do that evening.
What happens next is totally predictable. Your woman gets pissed, you argue, she hangs up and calls her girlfriend to complain. You feel surprised and disappointed at how upset she got, and feel resentful. You feel trapped by this relationship and doubtful that this woman is the right one. The right woman would be supportive and want you to have a life, right? While she feels upset that she now has no plans for the evening, and feels that you don’t actually care about spending time with her becuase you don’t take her into consideration when making choices.
Men often complain about how they wish their women wouldn’t get so upset about everything. Well, do they get upset about everything? Hopefully, upon brief reflection, the answer is no. It’s time to look at the types of actions and conversations that make her upset, like the scenario above, to see if there is something you might to do change that.
As an aside, if the answer is yes, it is possible that the guy is living with a truly unstable person. Guys, if your woman suffers from a diagnosable mental illness or personality disorder, you will have a different type of work to do.
But for the rest of you, healthy women will react emotionally when you bring up certain subjects. Here are three steps to reducing the drama and increasing your sense of freedom in your relationship:
1) Learn to expect a reaction—When it’s cloudy and humid, you don’t put on your suede jacket and curse mother nature for screwing you over when it starts to rain, but this is what many men do in relationships with women. Your fear about her reactivity AND your resulting denial about the possibilities that she will be upset, compel you to behave in provocative ways. In fact, she is often responding more to what you have consciously or unconsciously done to avoid upsetting her, then what you were afraid might upset her in the first place. In this way, you create more of what you say you don’t want.
Bring an umbrella. Learn to expect a reaction anytime you change what has become an expected pattern of interacting or unspoken agreement between you. For example:
  • You usually spend Friday nights with her and suddenly you can’t
  • You need to take more time for yourself
  • You suddenly become less attentive to her for any variety of good reasons
If any of the above take place, there’s a good possibility (unless you are with a very mature person) that she will be upset. If you’ve been with your partner for a while, you can get a good sense of what types of things upset her. If you have a hunch that what you need to do or say will bring it on, prepare for it. This will make it much easier for the both of you.
2) Make room for the wave—A fire that has no fuel will extinguish itself. Do not feed the fire by arguing with her about her feelings or perspective. You don’t have to take insults or jabs, but if you can stay calm and allow her upset to be, it will subside. If you are truly not trying to hurt her, then you can feel compassion for her hurt feelings , but you don’t have to believe that you caused them. Your job is not to take it on, fix it or make it better but rather, allow the wave to break on the shore.
It also helps to remember that she is not upset because she is controlling and manipulative, although her behavior certainly might be. She is upset because she loves you and wants to spend time with you, and doesn’t know how else to manage her vulnerability and disappointment.
3) Show her that you are in the relationship. Your woman will move through her reaction very quickly if you demonstrate your care by taking her feelings into consideration. Prepare ahead of time! “Hey listen, Saturday night I’m going to meet with the guys, but next weekend I would love to take you to that place you like by the water.” A communiqué like that can lead to a disappointed sigh instead of a rant, and offers an excitement about the future and a feeling of being cared for that minimizes hurt.
It’s pretty simple. She just wants to know that you care about her feelings, about spending time with her, and that you are not abandoning or taking advantage of her. Of course, anything you promise you must follow through with in order to earn or keep her trust.
If you follow these three steps regularly, a sane woman will respect you, and in turn become increasingly reasonable in response to your requests. And you will see that you can have your freedom and the relationship too. A good woman who loves you really wants you to be happy, as your happiness contributes greatly to hers.

Open Letter To Skales Of EME

Dear Skales Let me start by wishing you a happy and prosperous new year… Mr Raoul, I would like to admit to the FACT that you are a very talented and Hardworking artist like it’s not really easy switching between singing and Rapping at the same time (should be the main reason BankyW signed you some years ago).
There are some things I’ve noticed about your music Career since you Started with EME, some years ago when you released your first pre-EME Single(Heading for a Grammy) I just knew that you were headed to the TOP cause I felt the Heat(HIT) from the song. At that time People started looking forward to you like you are the next thing to storm the Nigerian music scene. BankyW. Signed You and Wiz up, I can remember Him bringing the two of you up on stage at a show announcing the you both as His Retirement plan, but Let me be sincere since then it has been all about Wiz.
I am not sure maybe it’s the Destiny/Star Factor OR the exposure wizkid got when He was still upcoming recording with the likes of OJB, soundsultan e.t.c then that made him a STRONGER FORCE than you in the music scene. I understand that you were still in school which is much needed(thank God you graduated successfully last year) maybe that was what held your music career back a little bit..
When you released your First single(Mukulu) with EME I was like Ok so this guy can sing too an album from him would not be bad. You also gained little Popularity and so on. 2013 was not too bad for your career, your impact was really good on the EME compilation album (this is me forgetting the fame and musical influence wizkid and BankyW got on the album).
Your verses on Baddest Boy, Sunmomi, Get down tonight and so on was on point. You released two singles in 2013 Take Care Of me and Denge Pose(of which denge pose was really slept on) which were AMAZING, the first time I heard Take care of me was on BEAT FM and I was like is this Skales? I mean An average Nigerian artist/musician can’t write a song like that. Now To the main matter, Mister Skales I would like you to Pull a wizkid on Your LABEL BOSSES.
2014 Is YOUR TAKEOVER YEAR, Release an album in the first quarter of this year (don’t care if Wiz’s second album is not yet out) Go for it in the first quarter of this Year or you lose your CHANCE of taking over/Blowing full time. At least the singles Wizkid released last year are enough (No hating to wiz).. I am tired of seeing tweets about you not blowing yet. Before I stop, Mr. Skales Please change Your stylist(if you have one) and your mode of dressing, you can At least Contact Ice-Prince for His Stylist.
THANK YOU…YOU ARE A STAR, SHINE BRIGHT!!!!
Thats all From A fan Of Skales , But One thing that suprises me , Why hasnt he Dropped any Album? , Well Lets See what 2014 Brings to Our dear Young Skales

{Gist} Parents are not meant to be Blamed


The term biological parent refers to a parent who is the biological mother or father of an individual. While an individual's parents are often also their biological parents, it is seldom used unless there is an explicit difference between who acted as a parent for that individual and the person from whom they inherit half of their genes. For example, a person whose father has remarried may call his new wife their stepmother and continue to refer to their mother normally, though someone who has had little or no contact with their biological mother may address their foster parent as their mother, and their biological mother as such, or perhaps by her first name.

When we were little, most of us assumed our parents are good at their jobs, it doesnt really occur to us that they dont always know what they are doing, But as we are getting older, we notice that our friends parents do things a bit differently. Maybe we are envious of them, or maybe we think we are the lucky ones. But probably as we get older it will start to dawn on us that our parents are getting some bits really really wrong.
This was what happened to me , i realized that my father was seriously bucking the trend by not actually being there for me at all. Before not long , i realized that my mother was in very different ways similarly hopeless, and she struggled to cope or to show affections towards me.
Now, in my case, things were sufficiently bad that i had to face up to them. Either i spend my life bitterly blaming my parents for almost all of my problems, or i move on. I then chose to recognize that my mother was just not even slightly cut out to be a parent, and that for someone like her, being a single parent to six children was too big a task. Maybe my mother realized too late that being a parent wasnt her thing.
I forgave her and got on with my life, It really saved me from becoming bitter and twisted, and it enabled me to put right the damage in a positive frame of mind. Funny enough, its often the people with the best parents who find it hardest to stop blaming them for the odd shortcoming, if your parents are basically pretty good at the job, its somehow tempting to blame them for not being absolutely perfect.
Your parents are only human, and its very likely that somewhere along the way they did few things that caused you real upset or difficulties.
Its too late to put things right by blaming your parents, but its not too late to let it go, recognize that their heart were in the right place, and quietly sort out any residual damage to yourself.

Coming Of Our Lord Jesus


And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; Which also said… this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven (Acts 1:9-11).

While the disciples stood gazing in awe as Jesus ascended into heaven, two angels appeared to them and said, "…This same Jesus, who has been received from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven" (Acts 1:11). This is so important; Jesus is coming again. This is the reason we’re preaching the Gospel around the world; the whole world needs to know that the Master is coming soon.
Jesus said in John 14:3, "…I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also." It’s your responsibility to prepare for His coming. If you’re born again you’re assured that at His coming the Master would receive you to Himself. However, the one without Christ would face eternal condemnation. If you’re reading this today, and you’re yet to make Jesus the Lord of your life, do so right away! Say, "Lord Jesus, I ask that you come into my heart to be the Lord of my life, from this day onward."
The Apostle Peter alluding to the day of the Lord and the events that’ll herald His coming said, "But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness" (2 Peter 3:10-11).
In everything you do, don’t lose focus of that day; live everyday as one who’s expecting the Master; carry that consciousness in your heart at all times.
While you’re getting yourself ready, you’re to help those around you get ready, and be prepared as well, for the coming of the Lord.
CONFESSION
Christ has been made unto me wisdom and that wisdom causes me to walk in the will of God, and fulfill my destiny in Christ. I’m walking worthy of the Lord, pleasing Him in all things as I joyfully anticipate His soon return. Amen.
FURTHER STUDY
1 Thessalonians 4:16
New Life Version (NLV)
16 For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven with a loud call. The head angel will speak with a loud voice. God’s horn will give its sounds. First, those who belong to Christ will come out of their graves to meet the Lord.
Revelation 22:20
New Life Version (NLV)
20 He Who tells these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon!” Let it be so. Come, Lord Jesus.
