The sisters of a dead woman are claiming her husband orchestrated her death in order to gain access to her estate.

Late Josephine Ibu and her three sisters agreed in 1999 to build a structure as a way of preserving their family name. They planned to build an imposing shopping complex in Lagos, to bear the family name, “Ibu Igbere Shopping Plaza.”

In 2001, Josephine, then a spinster, bought two plots of land situated at Ago Palace Way, Okota, Isolo with money contributed by all the sisters, especially the two elder sisters who were based in the United States.

From Friday 18th May to Saturday 19th May, Le Pavilion Dauphine in Paris was the scene of the Nigerian Creative Arts Exchange (NCAE) intended to open Nigeria for business to France and the world with a spectacular cultural exhibition through art, cuisine, fashion, film and food.

Guests ranging from public figures to private individuals from both countries including the wife of the Vice President of Nigeria, Dolapo Osinbajo were in attendance as the cultural exhibition began in earnest. Nigerian interpretations of haute couture were put together by four of Nigeria’s brightest fashion icons, Lanre Da Silva, Ituen Basi, Andrea Iyamah & Adebayo Oke-Lawal of Orange Culture.

XOXO Leo & Braids on a Bald Head, as directed by Priye Diri & Ishaya Bako respectively, were short films curated by Kemi ‘Lala’ Akindoju which screened in a private viewing room. Chef Fregz introduced France to the world of bold Nigerian flavours with a menu depicting the diversity of our cuisine. Some of Nigeria’s most creative artists were also represented by the country’s biggest art gallery, Nike Art Gallery. The art scene also saw another unique exhibition put together by the highly regarded Bisi Silva.


After a great time getting to know Nigeria’s rich and diverse cultural heritage, a now teeming crowd bore witness to the genius of Adekunle Gold through a bold performance reminiscent of his cultural roots. Belting out note after note, Adekunle Gold crooned his global smash hits in his native tongue capped off by a soulful rendition of ‘Ire’. Another crowd favorite was the elegant dramatic enactment of a poem, Fear Abides with Me, by Oxzygen Koncepts.

Disgraced R&B singer R Kelly “knowingly” infected a 19-year-old woman with an incurable sexually transmitted disease, a new lawsuit claims.

Faith Rodgers says she was mentally, physically and verbally abused by R Kelly, who she was in a relationship with for almost a year, according to the lawsuit filed yesterday.

A representative for the singer said in April that he “categorically denies all claims and allegations” in the lawsuit.

In an emotional interview with the BBC, Faith described R Kelly’s alleged sexual misconduct.

In May 2017, Faith says R Kelly flew her to New York to attend one of his concerts. She says she received a phone call at 6am from the singer, who came to her hotel room and ordered her to take off her clothes.

She describes his behaviour towards her as “really aggressive” and says she “froze up” when R Kelly attempted to initiate sexual activity.

“I told him that I wasn’t ready for sex, that I don’t engage in sex the first time I meet somebody – that’s not who I am, that’s not what I’m comfortable with,” she says.

Faith claims the singer then shrugged his shoulders and responded that he was “at his best” when he was “wanted”.


At that point, she says she thought it had been established that she didn’t want to have sex with him.

R Kelly then began rubbing Faith’s back like he was “rubbing a countertop”, she says.

The power of Céline!
Two months after Céline Dion canceled a series of shows in Las Vegas to undergo a “minimally invasive surgical procedure,” the superstar returned to the stage at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace on Tuesday night.

The Grammy award winner began the night by addressing the full concert hall where she received a standing ovation.

“You know it’s been a while since we’ve done a show I had a little health issue — don’t we all,” Dion said. “But I have to tell you, I’m extremely happy to be back. The stage is kind of my home away from home and I have to admit I can barely stand on my feet tonight as I am a little bit nervous.”


“It doesn’t matter how long you’ve done a show,” Dion admitted. “Every time you do a show you get nervous and I do have butterflies tonight.”

She continued, “You wonder will the people still come, are they gonna say what if she cancels tonight, will they stay home, I don’t take anything for granted. You can see so many shows in Vegas and I’m so very grateful.”

“Not everyone has the privilege to do what they love in life so thank you for the privilege,” she added.

Dion began the set by singing “I Surrender” and later treated the audience to a performance of her new song “Ashes,” which is featured on the new Deadpool 2 movie soundtrack.
