Her letter below; Dear President, As young global leaders we would like to express our deep concern about the recent situations in Nigeria. The massacre in Baga has been Boko Haram’s deadliest so far and what has it met with? Your silence. Most disturbing still is the fact that you would send a message to France condemning the killings there, yet seem unable to address the Nigerian people who look to you for leadership.  Unfortunately, it would not be the first time, On 10 November 2014 a suicide bomber killed 47 people and injured 79 others. The following day, with barely a mention of this horrific incident targetting children, you launched your re-election campaign. And despite the ease with which you move on, even you will remember the abduction of the schoolgirls in Chibok in April las

Don’t get it twisted, this isn’t a situation from one of her Nollywood movie, this is for real. The veteran Nollywood actress is allegedly wanted by the Nigerian Police for over N2 Million Unfinished Movie Debt. A movie Marketer, Film Mark Productions accused Mercy Johnson of running off with over two million Naira, paid toher for a role in a movie. According to reports, the actress, Mercy Johnson was paid by the marketer March last year to star in his movie that kicked-off production in April, but she abandoned the production after few days and featuring in just few scenes. The filmmaker claim Mercy’s excuse for leaving the movie set was for her to go spend the Easter holidays with her family and will return after a day or two, but never returned again till date. The filmmaker claims they had to continue paying hotel bills for an extra 33 days, because she kept giving them hopes that she would return to the movie set. After several weeks of not returning, theytheard she w

In Nigeria, there are three classes of people: The Masses, The Politicians, and The Rich. The masses are the puppets, the politicians the hand that controls the puppets and the rich the hand that controls the politicians. The politicians have the system totally rigged in their favour. They have made it compulsory for the masses to vote from a list selected by them knowing that as blind as the masses are, they may never realise they can actually have a choice. In the upcoming presidential election, the masses have been given no choice but to choose between two candidates forced upon them by the politicians. What if Buhari and Goodluck Jonathan are not exactly what the masses want? Are we going to have recourse when they fail as they always do, to honour their promises? There seems to be a spot in every Nigerian, a soft spot in our consciousness like the one in a baby’s head, which, if pressed or stroked in the right way, reduces us to giggling children with mouths fu

Difference entertainment Golden boy, Sean Tizzle in a new interview with Nigerian Tribune has revealed what a lot of people will find shocking about him. According to Sean, he suffered so much that he had to go to parties to beg for food and then help out later on for little change. Here’s what he said; Those days were very rough, but we thank God that we have been able to sail through. I used to sleep outside, hustle and fall asleep in buses. I also used to go to owanbe parties not to dance, because I didn’t have party clothes to wear, but I used to go because they had food. So at least at the end of the party, I could help out, get a little change, then go find shelter somewhere and continue my hustle the next day.

National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Senator Bola Tinubu, has accused President Goodluck Jonathan of being insincere that he knows nothing about the 400,000 barrels of crude oil which the former Lagos State governor said was being stolen from Nigeria daily. Tinubu, who spoke at the flag-off of Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s campaign in Ibadan on Saturday, insisted that Jonathan was allegedly responsible for oil theft and that he should be removed by all Nigerians during presidential election. He said, “God will not take us back to the bad days again. We will not see PDP here again because God has chased them away. Segun Oni and Oyinlola have realised that PDP is not the right party. Leaders of the party have deceived us for too long but I did not allow them in Lagos. “In the past, Oyo was a violent state but that has disappeared and we will not go back to the dark days. APC stands for the actualisation of better future for our children. “Jonathan and his government a

After about 10 years of hustling and bustling in the entertainment industry, Oritsefemi got his big break last year. The “Double Wahala” cronner was interviewed by Nigerian Tribune, where he talked about his relationship with D’banj. Read excerpts from the interview below: – About his relationship with Dbanj “Honestly, it was another dream that came true because D’banj is one of the leading enterprising artistes in Nigeria, who has a multinational endorsement. Right now some people have developed hatred for him.” The haters he’s referring to “I don’t know them, but I am aware that some set of people have formed a fan page disparaging D’banj. It is a hatred fan page which I don’t think is ideal. But I salute the matured mind of D’banj for demonstrating his responsibility and maturity on the development. I love his spirit, to the extent tha he never reacted to any of the issues, but has remained focused. Just as myself, I struggled so hard alongside with my manager on the street. In
