Read excerpts below: On losing her baby:  I’ve never spoken about it because it was very painful, and it’s still very difficult for me to talk about it.

Abdul made this claim during an investigative hearing into the incident by joint  ad hoc committee investigating the incident. According to him, what happened at the National Assembly was an act of internal  conspiracy among some security agencies and some lawmakers. “There should be cooperation between security agencies and the lawmakers but,  in this case,  the attack came from the roof as the senators are not helping security  matters. On April 16,  there was hint that a group planned to invade the  National Assembly and disrupt activities,  which called for a build-up of security with  two units of mobile police mobilized to the complex. However, on April 18, at about 11am,  my attention was drawn to a group protesting at the gate,  and, while I moved to address the group, I was informed that some people were  running away  with the mace. “I signalled all the entry points that nobody dr...

Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team have arrested one of the four robbery suspects declared wanted for attacks on banks in Offa, Kwara State. The suspect, Michael Adikwu, an ex-policeman, was said to have been dismissed in 2012 by the Kwara State Police Command for allegedly aiding the escape of some robbery suspects. According to Punch Metro, Adikwu, until his dismissal, was attached to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad of the state command.

He was reportedly arrested on Tuesday in a town in Kwara State by the DCP Abba Kyari-led IRT operatives, who acted on a tip-off from members of the public who saw Adikwu’s picture among those declared wanted.

Excerpts From The Interview.... ARE YOU BOTH AWARE THAT BIG BROTHER HOUSE IS A GAME HOUSE? Cee-c  – yeah…of course, I will speak for myself I’m very much aware that it was all a game. Tobi  – it’s a game but then you play it in a certain type of way, there is a part you have to play as a game. So, it’s a reality show and there is a reality and a show you also have to be part of. You can’t really play the game for 95days, we are humans. The game part is your nomination show. BOTH OF YOU WERE THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL IN THE HOUSE, CAN YOU TELL US IF THE WHOLE DOUBLE WAHALA DRAMA WAS SCRIPTED OR IT JUST HAPPENED WHILE YOU GUYS WERE IN THE HOUSE? Tobi  – In the bigbrother house generally, nothing was scripted, everything that happened in there was very natural. Even at a point we thought we were boring and they might probably want to scrap the show that was how bad it was. So, nothing was predetermined everything was totally natural and that’s the nature of the game. Cee-...

There is No Fire Incident at CBN Head Office  Reports that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) head office building is on fire are false.   Passersby who saw a pall of exhaust from the generator house far away from the building apparently mistook the exhaust for fire smoke.   The CBN maintains a total security system that triggers safety alarms in the presence of smoke and so all fire engines and personnel received the alert only to discover that it was an unusual pall of exhaust.   The affected generator has been rested and normal work has been uninterrupted, while the engineers are working to rectify the issues with the generator.   We hereby assure the general public that there has been no fire at our building.   Isaac Okorafor Ag.

She said this while fielding questions after the launch of ‘Disowned’, a book by Nina Anyianuka about sexual abuse and harassment, at Terra Kulture in Lagos. She said the pressure on young actresses to offer s§§ual favours is very high. “Unfortunately, the casting couch issue is alive in Nollywood,” she began. “Sometimes there is this hunger to get the work. Maybe you’ve gone to several auditions and  you haven’t gotten the work, then somebody tells you that it is because you are not doing  what you should do that is when you are not getting the work. “What I say to them is don’t believe it. By the time the producer, director, production manager  or whoever insists on sleeping with you, it is very likely you will end up not getting the work. “Some of the sad stories we hear is that because some people are so desperate, they end up  getting passed around.” Drawing an analogy with entrepreneurs, Silva said up and coming actresses should not  comprom...
