Footballer Emmanuel Emenike in N30m land dispute with Enugu state Govt
9/1/2014 6:47:00 AM

Nigerian star striker Emmanuel Emenike is currently at war with the Enugu State Government over 13 plots of land worth N30 million which he bought to build a sports academy in Enugu according to a report from AfricanFootball.

According to the report, soldiers have invaded the property in Enugu and have prevented any work on it, a development that hasn't gone down well with the footballer. Emenike said he bought the 13 plots of land after the World Cup in Brazil through a special assistant to the Enugu State Governor, Frank Ugwunweze, who handed all documents concerning the land in Emenike's name to the striker.
"I worked hard to make my money, I know what I pass through on the pitch before I earn my living and it will be unfair if what am hearing about my land in Enugu State was true.'' The striker said. Continue...
 "I visit Enugu whenever I come to Nigeria, my friends stay there as well as some of my family members. And I am the kind of person who allows for advise. Even before now, I had a dream to own an academy not only in Nigeria but I believe in the saying that "charity begins at home". About three, four months ago, I acquired 13 plots of land in Enugu State through the special assistant to Governor Sullivan Chime. And during the time of conversation of the land papers he never told me there was any problem on the land. He gave me all the necessary documents in my name after payment. I then directed for work to commence immediately, but the state government has directed soldiers to stop anybody from working there. I don't want to believe that this is fraud. I am ready to fight it all. I am not a politician and I see no reason why my money will be held by the government house. I have called some top government officials in Enugu, but all of them are not trying to be sincere. They could not help because the order came from the Governor. Nobody is trying to be sincere and as a matter of fact, I want my money back. I am very depressed that there is no confidence in investing in my country. I just don't understand the pranks. 
Right from time, I don't like going through government for anything. I prefer to do it with my money and I see no reason why my property will be held back by government. People go to government to get free land, but I will not do that because there is no sincerity in most of the things we do. And I will not be here and somebody takes my money, it will never happen. I just want to believe that His Excellency Governor Chime was not aware of the purchase of the land, in that case, I will like to have my money back." He said
Emenike is set to remain in the Turkyce lig with Fernabahce this season after a successful world cup with Nigeria in Brazil.

Flavour expecting 1st child with ex-beauty queen, Sandra Okagbue
9/1/2014 6:51:00 AM

I heard this gist many weeks back but I wanted to be sure it's true before bringing it here and I've finally confirmed from a very reliable source...with some details I can't even share here...:-). So yes, Flavour Nababia is expecting his first child with ex-Delta soap queen and model, Sandra Okagbue.

Sandra, who was once linked to Mikel Obi, left Nigeria for the US in June, and is expected to give birth some time this month.

The hot couple started dating last year and showed they were really smitten when they started using each others photos on their DPs. When I asked someone close the Flavour if there was marriage in the cards for the singer and beauty queen, he said no.
"The last thing on Flavour's mind right now is marriage. She said he's responsible for the pregnancy and Flavour has accepted it but as for marriage, don't hold your breath"

Happy New Month, People!
9/1/2014 12:30:00 AM

Hey you, yes you!
You better get to living life to the fullest
You better get to learning to love yourself unconditionally because you're worth it.
You better get to giving all you have to those who deserve it. And don't forget to throw in a little forgiveness to those who hurt you and loving those who love you.
You better get to showing a bit more concern about where you're going in life.
You better don't sweat the small stuff and keep your chin up when times are tough
And if it gets too rough, fall on your knees and talk to the Man above.

Happy New Month to you and yours. May all your dreams come true!

'I had a huge crush on Genevieve, I never date Rita Dominic' - Banky W
8/31/2014 11:58:00 PM

In an interview on YNaija's RubbinMinds programme this afternoon, Banky W opened up about his relationship status, people he's had crushes on and girls he's never dated. See all that after the cut...




Banky admitted that he had a huge on Genevieve and tried to pursue her but it didn't work out,
"I tried but Genevieve is Genevieve. I had a big crush on her at one point but now we are really cool friends" he said
Banky also revealed he had a huge crush on singer Niyola when he first came back to Nigeria to pursue his music career but didn't go after her because she was in an on/off relationship and when she became single, he'd already signed her to his record label and had assumed a big brother role in her life. The crush died he said.

Asked if he is under any pressure to get married, Banky W said;
"I think that there is a certain pressure that society brings and probably even more so the Nigerian society. So like your parents, once you graduate they start asking when you are going to get married so you can get me grand children...so its just the mentality but I think its probably an unhealthy obsession with weddings and probably not as great an obsession with healthy marriages and for me its like who you get married to or when you get married is one of the major decisions that you can make. So its wiser that you do it when you are sure that you are ready and you have found the person that you want to do it with and so on and so forth rather than succumb to whatever pressure or whatever it is because nobody is going to live that life with you. Nobody is going to wake up with the person for the rest of your life. So I dont believe in that and I think my parents know me well enough to not....they know I don't respond to such things. So do I look forward to getting married? Absolutely but when the person and the time is right. I have friend who I went to school with who got married and are now divorced and I don't want that to be my story so I would rather wait, find the person, make myself right, make the person right and so on and so forth and do it right one time rather than try and fail and be married for 72 days" he said



Banky W revealed that he will be taking 2 and a half months off the music scene to pursue a course in directing/film-making in New York in September.
