Politics / Peaceful Demonstration Against The Injustice Metted On Suleja People By The PHCN by bfacekenne(m): 2:35pm On Apr 06, 2016
There Was A Peaceful Demonstration Against The Injustice Metted On Suleja People By The PHCN Today.

The Youths In Demonstration(Not Violent) Are Not Fools, Not Stupid Or Neither Are They Another Model Of The Wailing Wailers For Expressing Their Grievances. The Youths Are In Principle Supporting And Symphatising With Their Parents As Those That Bears The Burden Of Paying The Bills That They Never Benefit And Also Not Happy With The Way And Manner The Electricity Distribution By The Officials Of The PHCN.

These Are Issues, Worthy Of All Relevant Stakeholders In Suleja To Come Together And Confront The Electricity Distributors On A Round Table Discussion, To Have A Very Common Understanding Of The Situation. As It Is A Known Fact That The Issue Of The Fall In The Electricity Megawatts In Nigeria Is No Longer A News.

And Of Course, We Are Aware That The Fed Govt Are Doing Something To That Effect. But The Suleja PHCN Should Be Just And Fair In The Distribution Of Power Which Provoked The Demonstration..

Let The Stakeholders Be Proactive Towards Addressing Our Pressing Community Problems... We Have Other Problems, Let's Objectively Face Them.

Politics / Update:the Ex-youth Copper Who Promise To Raise A Sculptural Piece In Otuoke by bfacekenne(m): 10:51pm On May 14, 2015
The Ex-youth copper Ezemagu Sunday Nnamdi who raised money for president Goodluck Jonathan re-election is now in Elebele,a Neighbouring town to Otuoke in ogbia on a mission to raise a sculptural piece (statue) in honour of president Goodluck Jonathan as a Genuine Hero for salvaging the democratic ethics of this great country. Hear him

I met a friend in a bus I entered from Abuja to Bayelsa who directed me to see king G.A lowson for a location to raise the sculptural piece (statue).

King lowson is the head Chief of land of emeyan and also the acting Obanobhan of Ogbia Kingdom.

Ogbia kingdom comprises almost 50 communities including Otuoke.

On my way to Elebele,the home town of king Lowson,I asked the driver of the taxi I entered if he knows king Lowson's palace.

A man sitting in the front of the taxi quickly asked me why do I want to see king Lowson:

Immediately I told him my mission. The man smile and said,king Lowson is my younger brother,I will take you to him.

The man took me to king lowson's school where we met him in a class room.

After explaining my mission to king Lowson he directed us to a king in Otuoke and asked me to give him feedback after seeing Otuoke's king.

When I get to Otuoke king's palace,I met the wife and she told me that the king travelled to Abuja that he might come back today or tomorrow.

We went back to king lowson's palace to give him feedback. After the feedback, king Lowson called the management of one of the hotels in Elebele to give me a room where I await the arrival of Otuoke's King.
My thank goes to the people of Ogbia especially king Lowson for their kind gesture.

Music/Radio / This Day September 13 1996, Tupac Amaru Shakur Died, Makaveli Lives On by bfacekenne(m): 9:01am On Sep 13, 2014
This day september 13 1996, we lost one of the greatest rapper ever(god of rap) 18 years later,his name and music still tell a story in our generation today. DON KILLUMINATI

Tupac Amaru Shakur
Born in New York City in 1971, Tupac Shakur, known by his stage name 2Pac, was an American rapper. Shakur has sold more than 75 million albums worldwide, making him one of the best-selling music artists in the world. Most of Tupac's songs are about growing up amid violence and hardship in ghettos, racism, other social problems and conflicts with other rappers during the East Coast-West Coast hip hop rivalry. Shakur was shot and killed in Las Vegas, Nevada, in 1996.

Early Life

Shakur has become a legend in hip-hop and rap circles for his talent, his violent behavior, and his brutal death. The son of Black Panther activists, Shakur was raised by his mother Afeni Shakur. She was actually in jail on bombing charges during her pregnancy with Tupac. She was later acquitted in the case. He had no contact with his biological father, Billy Garland, until he was an adult.

According to The Rolling Stone Encyclopedia of Rock & Roll, Shakur was originally named Lesane Parish Crooks, but his moniker was soon changed to Tupac Amaru Shakur. "Tupac Amaru" means "shining serpent." He had a difficult childhood, moving frequently around in the New York City boroughs of Brooklyn and the Bronx. Shakur received an education in radical politics from his mother, but he also saw some of life's hardships through her struggles with substance abuse. In his youth, he explored acting by becoming a member of the 127th Street Ensemble, a Harlem-based theater company.

As a teenager, Shakur attended the Baltimore School for the Arts, where he took acting and dance classes, including ballet. While living in Baltimore, he discovered rap and began performing as MC New York. In the late 1980s, Shakur and his family moved to the West Coast. He joined the Oakland, California-based hip-hop group Digital Underground, which earlier had scored a hit with the song "The Humpty Dance." Shakur appeared on two of the group's recordings—1990's This Is an EP and Sons of the P before going solo.

Debut as 2Pac

In 1991, Shakur emerged as a solo artist—using the name 2Pac—with his debut album 2Pacalypse Now. The track "Brenda's Got a Baby" reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot Rap Singles chart. His second album, Strictly 4 My N. I. G. G. A. Z., crossed over to the pop charts, with singles "I Get Around" and "Keep Ya Head Up." The album went platinum, selling more than a million copies.

Around this time, Shakur made his film debut in the 1992 urban crime drama Juice with Omar Epps, Samuel L. Jackson and Queen Latifah. He showed his softer side in Poetic Justice (1993), which was billed as "A Street Romance." Shakur starred opposite Janet Jackson in the film. The following year, he played a drug dealer in the basketball drama Above the Rim.

Controversy

2Pac became quite a sensation, earning praise for his musical and acting talent as well as condemnation for his explicit, violent lyrics. Many of his songs told of fights, gangs, and sex. He appeared to be living up to his aggressive gangster rap persona with several arrests for violent offenses in the 1990s. In 1994, he spent several days in jail for assaulting director Allen Hughes and was later convicted of sexual assault in another case. Shakur himself fell victim to violence, getting shot five times in the lobby of a recording studio during a mugging.

The next year, after recovering from his injuries, Shakur was sentenced to four and a half years in prison in the sexual assault case. His third solo album, Me Against the World (1995), started out in the number one spot on the album charts. Many critics praised the work, noting that tracks like "Dear Mama" showed a more genuine, reflective side to the rapper. The possibility of an early death runs through several songs on this recordings - something that many have seen as a chilling moment of foretelling.

After serving eight months in prison, Shakur returned to music with the album All Eyez on Me (1996). He was reportedly released after Death Row Records CEO Marion "Suge" Knight paid a bond of more than $1 million as part of Shakur's parole. In his latest project, Shakur as the defiant street thug was back in full force on this recording. The song "California Love" featured a guest appearance by famed rapper-producer Dr. Dre and made a strong showing on the pop charts. "How Do You Want It" also was another smash success for Shakur. It appeared to be a golden time for Shakur.

Besides his hit album, Shakur continued to pursue his acting career. He landed several film roles around this time. He co-starred with Mickey Rouke in the 1996 crime drama Bullet. Before his untimely death, Shakur completed work on two other projects—Gridlock'd and Gang Related—that were released in 1997.

Violent Death

During his career, Shakur had become embroiled in a feud between East Coast and West Coast rappers. He was known to insult his enemies on his tracks. On a trip to Las Vegas to attend a boxing match, Shakur was shot while riding in a car driven by Knight on September 7, 1996. He died six days later, on September 13, 1996, from his injuries at a Las Vegas hospital. Shakur was only 25 years old at the time of his death, and his killer has never been caught. Since his death, numerous albums of his work have been posthumously released, selling millions of copies.

Shakur's life has inspired numerous books and theatrical productions, including the 2012 musical Holler If Ya Can Hear Me. That same year, he made a posthumous appearance at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival with the help of technology. A 2-D image of the late rapper accompanied Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg during one of their performances at the California event. Shakur's return to the stage from beyond the grave stirred up a new wave of interest in his videos and his music
