“Gbegi, you were a genuinely good man, a born-leader and the ultimate family man. May Almighty God continue to bless the family you left behind and may your great legacy continue to live on.”

“Chairman of the Code of Conduct tribunal refers to citizens as Biafran Boys? This is the height of it!

“Justice Danladi Umar needs to be removed from office! He has shown his bias and his position requires neutrality.”

“A long time ago, a friend sent me a message which I still have, mocking me that I was in an abusive relationship showing off to me that she had a better husband than me, I took my kids and walked away from the relationship, said nothing to the public and focused on my business and kids.

“I had my first kid when I was 23 years old, I got married when I was 19years old, there are many things y’all don’t know about me, I have been through hell and back with no complaints or pity party,” she wrote.

Frame 4: The Instagram Promoter Replies

CelebritiesKemi Adetiba Threatens Instagram Media Promoter With Lawsuit by Abdulazeez99(op): 11:15am On Feb 11, 2021
Movie director Kemi Adetiba has said she will be taking legal actions against a certain Instagram music and video promoter known as Site of Stars, Igbere TV reports.

The 41-year-old shared a post from the promoters page which had her picture and also shared a chat she had with one of their correspondents on Instagram on Wednesday.

She said the promoters claim they have the right to advertise with celebrities pictures without a contract with them.

“By this ‘logic’ I can post on my page or create a site or portal and claim – and I quote – ‘stream videos, Social media www.kemiadetiba/beyonce. Advertise with Beyoncé now! for short term monthly advert Make payments directly to Kemi Adetiba (@beyonc @kemiadetiba)’.

“None of the above is true, but said here for ridiculous context. This is what @siteofstars say they are legally allowed to do. They’ve even tagged me on their posts (Twitter and Instagram that I know of so far) multiple times, even though I’ve continually stated I have no affiliation with them, and asked them to STOP!! But, don’t worry about all that… I will meet @siteofstars “in the front” LEGALLY,” she wrote.

Kemi added that she will never have an affiliation with the promoters.

She said, “In the meantime… Please NOTE that I do NOT and will NEVER have ANY affiliation with @siteofstars or their affiliates. You deal with them to book me, or advertise with me… It is at your own peril.”

In another post Kemi shared a picture of the letter by her solicitors written to the promoters.

“I am told by my solicitors @oalnigeria that a soft copy has been emailed to you @siteofstars and a hard copy dispatched to the office address quoted on Instagram page.

“I have also taken the liberty of contacting the establishments you claim to be affiliated with. You should be hearing from them soon,” she wrote.

Site of Stars had on Monday advertised their services with a picture of Kemi.

They said, “Explore the Breathtaking Videos from #KingWoman #Kemiadetiba Stream Videos, Social Media on https://stars.ng/kemiadetiba Advertise with #Kemiadetiba now! for short term monthly advert, Make payments directly to STAR @kemiadetiba @siteofstars.”

Site of Stars Instagram page reveals them as a blog who uses stories and pictures of celebrities to promote their services.

“We Are In A Season Of Political Consultation” — I Haven’t Left PDP, Fani-Kayode Counters Yahaya Bello’s Viral Video

Former minister of aviation Femi Fani-Kayode has insisted he is still a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, Igbere TV reports.

Mr Fani-Kayode was forced to speak following a video which went viral on Wednesday showing Kogi State Governor Yahaya Bello saying the ex-minister had joined the ruling All Progressives Congress.

In a swift reaction, Fani-Kayode admitted that although he was holding talks across party lines, he was still a PDP member.

“Though we have had meetings across party lines and we are in a season of political consultation, I have not left the PDP,” he tweeted.
