Celebrities / Exposed: Real Estate Investor, Joseph Nantomah Scams Investors by DejiPlug(m): 9:04pm On May 11
EXPOSED: REAL ESTATE, JOSEPH NANTOMAH SCAMS INVESTORS OVER $300MILLION IN USA.

GOD help us

By:Fashina Shakiru.
The foremost African real estate investor Dr. Joseph Nantomah, popularly known as Black Mentor, is presently alleged for stealing over $300,000.00 from clients who made payments to his real estate investment group, BizTimes News reports.

The Wisconsin Circuit Court in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA, has opened a case investigating allegations of a real estate mega scam to allow investors to reclaim their investment funds.

A lawsuit filed on behalf of city Milwaukee residents Tomas Matos and Jeannie Berry-Matos, which also affects some Nigerians-US based Oluwafemi Adeosun, Chimkame Ibe, Noral Anyanwu and Emmanuel Anyanwu in United States District Court, Eastern District of Wisconsin, accused Black Mentor investment fraud.

According to a report by BizTimes News, a Nigerian-US-based resident of New York, Oluwafemi Adeosun, filed a breach of contract lawsuit against Nantomah after he allegedly accepted a payment of $80,000 to flip a home in Slinger. After this first payment agreement, Adeosun also entered into a second investment with Nantomah and paid him another $45,000.

Another Nigerian-US-based resident, Chimkame Ibe, a Texas resident, also accused Dr. Josphen Nantomah of a breach of contract lawsuit against Black Mentor last month. She allegedly paid into an investor account $100,000 to flip the aforementioned property in Slinger. According to the client, she entered into a second investment agreement with Black Mentor via the messaging app Whatsapp, paying an additional $15, 000, BizTimes News reports.

The scam not left out a couple: Noral Anyanwu and Emmanuel Anyanwu, residents of Illinois, allegedly paid Nantomah $100,000 for investment property. Meanwhile, the trio of client-victims of Nigerians-US based have filed a case against Nantomah at the Wisconsin circuit court, Milwaukee USA.

According to the Investors Capital LLC website, the company owns a real estate asset worth more than $23 million. The company's policy stated that they would acquire properties and then flip them for property.

The company solicits investments from clients through seminars, conferences, workshops, and the use of social media platforms to educate clients on the company's real estate investment market and the promised returns.

This medium further investigated Nantomah's social media activities and discovered that he used his huge followers on Instagram and Facebook to trick innocent victims into falling victim to a security investment fraud. It was gathered that the victims have yet to receive any reimbursement for any payments from Nantomah's real estate investment company

Nantomah is the owner and principal of Milwankee-based Investor Capital LLC, a property service company. According to the findings by BizTimes News, "The business is not accredited by the Better Business Bureau and has garnered three customer complaints over the last two years, which were filed with the BBB.

LET EVERYTHING THAT HAS BREATH PRAISE THE LORD. PRAISE GOD

By Lasisi Olagunju

(Published in the Nigerian Tribune on Monday, 12 February, 2024)

The last premier of the Western Region, Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola, asked his guest what the town was saying. The guest told him the town was solidly behind him. The guest backed his claim with a cassette which he said contained the adulation with which the people of Ibadan welcomed every step so far taken by Chief Akintola. The premier listened to the cassette and brightened up. He thanked the guest, Chief A.M.A. Akinloye, as he took his exit. Akintola's young confidant and aide, Adewale Kazeem, walked in. The premier told him of Akinloye's good news and gave him the cassette to listen to. Adewale listened to the cassette, sighed and was downcast. The premier looked at the worried face of Adewale Kazeem and asked why. “The town is not good,” he told Chief Akintola, and added that the content of the cassette was not a true reflection of what the town was saying about the premier and his government. A shocked Akintola intoned “ta l'a á wàá gbàgbó báyìí (who do we believe now)?” The young man told the premier: “You had better believe me, Baba.”

The above happened sometime in 1964. A year later, the problem multiplied for Chief Akintola who became increasingly troubled, his hands unsteady; “he could no longer write his signature on a straight line.” One day, he was advised by the same aide, Adewale Kazeem, to resign his post as premier and end the raging crisis in the region. Akintola's response was: “Adewale, Ăł ti bĂł; ikĂș lĂł mĂĄ a gb’ùyĂŹn elĂ©yĂŹĂ­ (Adewale, it is too late. It is death that will end all this).” The above details are on pages 161 and 172 of the book 'SLA Akintola in the Eyes of History: A Biography and Postscript'. The book, published in 2017, was written by a former member of the House of Representatives, Hon. Femi Kehinde. The author did not put those conversations in the book as hearsay. He heard them directly from Adewale Kazeem who rose in life to become a well-respected oba in Osun State.

At 5.50pm on 6 August, 1962, Chief Obafemi Awolowo left his place for the residence of the Prime Minister, Alhaji Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, for a 6pm appointment. It was at the height of the political crisis of the early 1960s. Awo arrived at Balewa's 8 Lodge on the dot and wasted no time opening their discussion. He asked Balewa: “Are you sure in your mind that this crisis will end well for all of us and for Nigeria?” Chief Awolowo said “Balewa replied in a low, solemn voice that he was sure it would not end well...” (See Awolowo's 'Adventures in Power', Book Two, page 249). And, did it end well? There is no point answering that question. We all know how it ended. Today, there is a new fire on the mountain. Things are bad; very bad. Paris-born Nigerian singer, Bukola Elemide (Asa) sings: “There is fire on the mountain/ And nobody seems to be on the run...” The first time we heard a cry of fire and fear in our politics was in the Western House of Assembly in 1962. Since then, the mountain of Nigeria has been badly scarred by political bush-burners. A fresh blaze is balding the skull of the poor today and the consequences cannot be imagined.

There are consequences for everything anyone does or does not do. Even the words that I use here will have consequences. Ethnic and business 'friends' of the president will abuse me like they've always done to poets who refuse to do palace clowning. They forget that I am a child of the farm; I walk the furrows, not the ridge. I am beyond their shot. Authored by researchers Iain McLean and Jennifer Nou, a piece appeared in the October 2006 edition of the British Journal of Political Science. And the title? 'Why should we be beggars with the ballot in our hand?' That is the question we dare not ask here without them saying we should bring our heads. They say the president is our brother who cannot do wrong. They forget that we were not taught in Yoruba land to merely chase away the fox and pamper the cocky bumbling hen. We were taught to give justice to fox and then to hen - one after the other. How is keeping quiet when the 'war' is all around us going to help "our brother"?

The hunger that is in town today is more serious than the hunger that made Sango burn down a whole town. Yet, our leader appears not worried. He is not scared. It is business as usual. Why are we not fearing the consequences of our misbehaviour? A journalist recalled that sometime in 1965, Prime Minister Balewa was at the airport in Ikeja and was asked what he was doing to quench the fire in the Western Region. The big man looked around and declared that “Ikeja is part of the West, I can't see any fire burning.” Truly, he was kept busy with positive assurances by flightless birds around him. He lived in denial, or in self-deception, he ignored the firestorm. The fire he refused to see grew uncontrollably wild; it became a blaze so much that when the cock crowed at dawn on January 15, 1966, it was too late for the head of the Nigerian government to save even himself.

There were protests in parts of the country last week by hungry Nigerians. But President Bola Tinubu's trusted people said the protests were unreal; they said the president's policies are good and popular with the people. They are telling the president that the hungry are not very hungry. They said it was the opposition playing politics, inciting the poor against the state. I saw Lagbaja, the mystery musician, from a distance at the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile Ife, on Friday. I tried unsuccessfully to reach him and get him to sing: ‘Mo sorry fun gbogbo yin’ to those telling the naked president that his garment is beautiful. The 'sorry' is more for Tinubu. He is the one chosen and crowned to rule; and he is the one whose tenure is being measured by mass suffering, mass hunger, mass kidnapping. He is the one being scaffolded from the ugliness of the street. Tinubu is an elder. Should it be difficult for him to know the next line of action when a load is too heavy for the ground to carry and is too heavy for the rafters? We say in Yoruba land that when the going gets tough and life faces you, shoot at it; if it backs you, shoot it. When you are alone, reconsider your stand.

Did President Tinubu read Segun Adeniyi of Thisday last week? The columnist asked him to go and watch again the Yoruba mainframe play, Saworoide. If you are not Yoruba, look for the plot summary of that play, it should be online. Read it. It should tell what the warning is all about. They are all prophets - the warners. Did the president read Abimbola Adelakun of The Punch last Thursday? She warned that "things are getting out of hand." Did Tinubu read Tunde Odesola of the same newspaper the following day? He wrote that in Tinubu's Nigeria, "the poor can't inhale, the rich can't exhale." Farooq Kperogi of Saturday Tribune has written twice (last week and the week before) on hunger and anger in the land. He warned Tinubu two days ago not to see himself as Buhari who misruled big time but escaped the whips of consequences. Festus Adedayo yesterday in the Sunday Tribune likened today's Nigeria to ravaged Ijaiye, a defeated community of hopelessness. I, particularly, find very apt Adedayo's reading of today's suffering as Kurunmi's war-ravaged Ijaiye of 1860/61. In 2024 Nigeria, respectable people beg to eat; mothers sell one child to feed another. It is tragic. Bola Bolawole's offering drew from French and Russian histories of social and political tragedy. I do not know what Suyi Ayodele of the Nigerian Tribune is cooking for tomorrow, Tuesday. I will be surprised if Tinubu's 'friends' have not reported these warners to him as his enemies. That is how we are being governed.

The naira is ruined, the kitchen is on fire. We thought the regime of Muhammadu Buhari was the last leg of Nigeria's relay race of tragedy. Now, it is clear he was actually the first leg in a race that won't end soon. Tinubu took the baton from his game-mate and said his wand is made of hope in renewed bottles. His first eight months have proved that it is not true that the child does not die at the hands of the circumciser. This is better said in Yoruba - Ă sĂ© irĂł ni wĂ­pĂ© omo kĂŹĂ­ kĂș lĂłwĂł onĂ­'kolĂ ! This one is dying - or is dead. Before the president's very eyes, the country has become a vast camp for stranded people; a nation of displaced people who live on food rations. The people now ask who is going to be their helper. Legendary Ilorin musician, Odolaye Aremu, at a moment of anomie as this, lamented that the one we said we should run to for safety is urging us to run even far away from where he is (eni tĂ­ a nĂ­ k'ĂĄ lo sĂĄ bĂĄ, Ăł tĂșn nĂ­ k'ĂĄ mĂĄa sĂĄ lo).

Cluelessness is a physician treating leprosy with drugs made for eczema. Who told the president that opening the federal silos is the solution to a bag of rice selling for N70,000? It was N7,000 nine years ago. The protesting people from the north and in the south are not saying there is no food in the market. There is no scarcity of foodstuffs. It is not a demand and supply problem. There is food in the market, but the food in the market is priced beyond the earnings of the people. That is the issue, the problem, and it cannot be solved with handouts from grain reserves. It can only be solved with a magic that will shrink the price of foodstuffs to a size within the financial capacity of the poor.

Some say it is age that ails Tinubu making him unfelt in this season of pain. But, he won't be the first old man to be king. There was a prince in Ofa who owned neither calabash nor plate (kĂČ nĂ­'gbĂĄ, kĂČ l'ĂĄwo). But he had a large piece of cloth as his only item of value. He did not use it; it was too unuseful to the poor old man who would rather lend it for a fee to others for use on their special outings. The man's condition remained critical, his poverty unremitting. He prepared himself and went to an elder for consultation. He sought counsel on what he could do so that he might gain importance. He was told to give up the large piece of cloth, sit back and watch. He did as he was told and soon after that sacrifice, the king of Ofa died and the people of Ofa made the poor old man king. They said among themselves that "this one will not be long before he dies and another will take his place." But the old man became king and refused to die. Instead of dying, he became increasingly robust, younger and stronger. Life and living in Ofa became good and pleasant as well. The poor became prosperous and the rich richer. The people of Ofa fell in love with their king; they no longer wanted him to die. He reigned long and well. At the end of his journey, the departing king was satisfied that he had good tidings to take to his alĂĄsekĂč - those who reigned without destroying the crown, the ones who passed the stool to him for him to pass to others. This Ofa story belongs in the grove of the wise; it is deeper than I have told it. Its code is with the elders.

All who are favoured are counselled to take it easy with life. They should cast away the garment of greed, of hubris and of lust for the self. If they care, they can take counsel from these lines from the ancestral scroll: "Do not run the world in haste. Let us not hold on to the rope of wealth impatiently. What should be treated with mature judgment should not be treated in a fit of temper. Whenever we arrive at a cool place, let us rest sufficiently well and give prolonged attention to the future; let us give due regard to the consequences of things. We should do all these because of the day of our sleeping, our end (MĂĄ fi wĂ rĂ  wĂ rĂ  s'ayĂ©, K'ĂĄ mĂĄ fi wĂ rĂ  wĂ rĂ  rĂČ m'ĂłkĂčn orĂČ. Ohun a bĂą fi s'Ă gbĂ , K'ĂĄ mĂĄ fi sĂš'bĂ­nĂș. BĂ­ a bĂĄ dĂ©'bi t'Ăł tĂștĂč, K'ĂĄ simi simi, K'ĂĄ wo'wĂĄjĂș ojĂł lo tĂ­tĂ­; K'ĂĄ tĂșn bĂČ wĂĄ r'ĂšhĂŹn ĂČrĂ n wĂČ; NĂ­torĂ­ Ă tisĂčn ara eni ni).

Tinubu's salvation lies with his orĂ­ inĂș- his inner head. That is the priest he should consult. It is what he should go and ask for the way. His reign is painful.

Pipeline Protection: NDCV cautions FG for awarding contract to non-idigene security outfits, avert crises. 


By Fashina Shakiru. 

The Niger Delta Coastline Vanguard (NDCV) cautioned the Federal Government on Thursday for awarding contact for pipeline protection to a non-idigenous security company while denying the same privilege to the EEL Security company, the Ilaje indigenous security outfit, for the job.

Akogun Omotuwa Job, National President, stated this is a statement he signed on Thursday and made available to Newsmen by his National Secretary, Chief Ajiroba Lucky.

It is, therefore, shocking to read that the Ondo State Command of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps( NSCDC) had a meeting with a non-idigene security outfit, Gallery Security Services, contracted by the government to secure our region's Ondo Waterways.

The National President, NDCV, said we will not allow the plans by the Nigerian National Petroleum Cooperation Limited (NNPCL) to re-award the pipeline surveillance contracts to some ex-militant leaders in the Niger Delta region to carry out security monitoring of pipeline vandals because these people and security companies did not represent the Ilaje people in the South West; they cannot represent us in this region.

He noted that Gallery Security Services and High Chief Bibopere Ajube, the Beleukoriowei, are not from Ilaje south-west, and he cannot represent the region or speak for the region; he should be in his own territory, not Ilaje territory.

"All the oil wells in Ondo State are in Ilaje, in the south-west region. Because of this, the Niger Delta Coastline Vanguard is supporting the EEL Security Company to be in charge of IIaje, the longest coaster line," said Akogun Omotuwa Job.

Meanwhile, the NDCV is already cooperating with all the security agencies to stop all the illegal oil activities in the region. The group is supporting the EEL Security Company and can as well partner with the federal government to secure the south-west region of the waterway to be in charge of the South West, from Ondo State to Lagos Water Way. We want Ilaje, Yoruba, and the south-west to reflect very well because all the oil wells in Ondo State are in their territory, not Ijaw territory.

"We are calling for the review of the existing policy on the decentralization of the new surveillance project to accommodate leaders of ex-militants in Ondo, Ogun, and Lagos State to avoid an imminent crisis in the region."

According to the National President, "The Niger Delta Coastline Vanguard (NDCV) is in Ilaje Local Government Area of Ondo State and is a group of ex-militants who, under the Presidential Amnesty Program, submitted weapons and were granted pardoned in 2017 with a promise to be properly integrated into the Federal Government Amnesty Program with all accrued benefits. We established a forest camp in Ilaje Local Government Areas of Ondo State. The Ilaje covers the entire 120-kilometer coastline and 80% of the waterways in the state."

Akogun Omotuwa Job's statement, which was titled, 'The call for immediate decentralization of pipeline surveillance contracts in the Niger Delta Region to avert crisis, consider Ilaje man for the job', read, “The plans by the Nigerian National Petroleum Cooperation Limited to re-award the pipeline surveillance contracts to some ex-militant leaders in the Niger Delta region to carry out security monitoring of pipeline vandals. It is on this basis that we are calling for the review of the existing policy on the decentralization of the new surveillance project to accommodate leaders of ex-militants in Ondo, Ogun, and Lagos State to avoid an imminent crisis in the region".

The group, in a statement yesterday, copied the Federal Government, through the Office of the National Security Adviser, General Manager, Nigerian National Petroluem Cooperation Limited, Director of State Service, and Inspector General of Police, to be aware of the serious implication the neglect of this agitation could cause to the region. More so, when the contract is awarded to people who are not too familiar with the region, they add that everything is taken from our environment through pipelines and still deny us the opportunity to maintain those pipelines.

On this note, we demand the following for peace to reign in the region:
i.Decentralization of the pipeline surveillance contract to accommodate NDCV to cover the Ondo, Ogun, and Lagos State littoral corridors.
ii.That NDCV has the capacity, the required intelligence, and human resources to collaborate with the Federal Government in the surveillance of pipelines and anti-bunkering activities in the area.
iii.That NDCV is familiar with the terrain for effective and efficient output.
iv.That we shall not allow or accept any deliberate attempt by the government or an agent of the government to impose someone from another region who does not belong to our ethnic nationality on us to sustain the existing peace in the region.

We call on Mr. President to intervene in this and stop this disrespect to our region (the South West).

"We are also very comfortable with the tremendous peace being enjoyed at the moment, and we want it to continue."

Politics / Consumers Fear Further Crisis As Prices Of Foodstuffs Continue Rising by DejiPlug(m): 8:56am On Jan 21
Praise GOD


The rate at which prices of foodstuff continue to rise has generated a serious concern from citizens. This has become a topic of discussion by many as there is fear that acute hunger would persist across the country.

Daily Trust on Sunday reliably gathered that in Kano State, prices of rice, maize, millet and other food crops have been increasing, almost on a daily basis, a trend described by many residents as worrisome and dangerous to human existence. Indices have shown that the inflation rate on food commodities has reached about 30 per cent, which is believed to be the highest in recent times.

Findings have shown that a 100kg bag of millet is now selling in Kano at N51,000, 100kg bag of rice, N92,000 and 100kg of maize is N44, 000. The hike has affected almost all agro-commodities, forcing a sense of insecurity in terms of food supply.

A grain merchant at Dawanau International Grain Market, Alhaji Uba Abdullahi Bello, revealed that massive exportation of agro-commodities to neighbouring countries due to the mad rush to earn forex and the massive demand by mega companies are the main reason behind the hike in food prices, especially in Kano State.

“It will interest you to know that our commodities are now being heavily exported, either legally or illegally. Nigerian commodities are now a hot cake outside the country, and this is simply because our people are in a rush to earn forex that will culminate into a huge sum of naira when converted.

“There is also the mad rush for raw materials by the processing companies. It is very clear that there is a serious competition between demand for consumption and raw materials by these mega companies. And this has resulted in the increase of commodity prices because there is a huge demand,” he said.

Households in the state have expressed the fear of facing a serious food crisis as a result of the high cost of commodities. According to Malam Bashir Idris, a junior civil servant in the state government, a lot of food items are becoming unaffordable to many households. He explained that buying a measure (mudu) of either rice or beans is gradually going out of reach of the common man, adding that people can now only buy in cups.

“In a situation where the minimum wage is N30,000 and a measure of rice is selling at N2,300, you can imagine how life would be. A measure of sugar is now selling at N4,000 while a measure of maize is N1, 200. You will shed tears if you see how our people are coping with this development. The truth is that Nigeria and Nigerians are facing a serious crisis and there is a need for government’s intervention,” he pleaded.

Moreover, following the rise in the prices of locally milled rice and other agro-commodities in Kano State, Sasakawa Africa Association (SAA), which serves as an implementing partner in the Kano State Agropastoral Development Project (KSADP), funded by the Islamic Development Bank (IsDB), the Lives and Livelihood Funds (LLF) and the Government of Kano State, has embarked on activities that will ensure massive rice production along its value chain.

Speaking with Daily Trust on Sunday, the deputy country director of the SAA, Dr Abdulhamid Gambo, said the association had been in Kano State for over 34 years supporting crop productivity enhancement, not only on rice but also on other crops.

He explained that the trend in the hike of agro-commodity prices is connected to the trend on the global shock on the micro economic variables.

According to him, the SAA has embarked on training and empowering farmers on the technologies needed for production to ensure better yield and increase in their income. He added that through that, increase in yield has been recorded.

“We are currently promoting good agronomic practices through which we taught farmers how to utilise good varieties of seeds, modern farming techniques, among other things. We have recorded an increase in rice yield from 2 tonnes per hectare to about 5 tonnes. This is a good step forward in addressing the issue of rice production,” he said.

Similarly, the project coordinator, KSADP Project in the office of the SAA, Mr Abdulrasheed Hamisu Kofarmata, said that under the project, farmers’ capacities have been built, as well as teaching them on the values of regenerative agricultural practices.

He said the project didn’t only focus on production but also promoted locally milled rice by training and empowering over 2,500 women on rice per boiling using their group structures.

“We have also established over 30 mini rice mill hubs across the 44 local government areas of the state to boost milling business, as well as to augment what we have been doing on rice production. By doing these we hope to contribute in bringing down the price of rice paddy, as well as locally milled rice in the state,” he revealed.

As the Muslim fasting period is fast approaching, many residents have expressed concern at the rate at which the prices of agro-commodities is getting high every day.

Politics / BREAKING: Nabeeha Al-kadriyah’s Sisters Regain Freedom by DejiPlug(m): 7:53am On Jan 21
Praise GOD
TheMiracleMag

Daily Trust reports that the four remaining siblings of late Nabeeha Al-Kadriyah have regained freedom from their abductors.

The sisters were abducted alongside their father early January.

Their abductors had given a deadline for the payment of ransom, and failure of the family to meet their demand led to the killing of Nabeeha.

After killing the victim, the bandits raised the ransom from N60 million to N100 million, threatening to kill the remaining sisters.
But as of the time of filing this report (12:30 am on Sunday), the girls had regained freedom and arrived their Abuja residence where they were abducted.

Daily Trust reports that security operatives escorted them home, where they were received by family members.

The four victims are Najeeba, a 500-level Quantity Surveying student, her younger sister Nadherah, 300-level Zoology student, both of the Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Zaria and their twin sisters, Habeeba and Haneesa.

The uncle to the girls, Sherifdeen, confirmed the development to our correspondent in a telephone chat Sunday morning.

According to him, “The girls’ release was secured late Saturday,” he said.

It was gathered that although the N100 million ransom placed on them had since been paid, the bandits held on to them for days putting the family in suspense until Saturday night.

In a statement signed by Sherifdeen Al-Kadriyah, the family thanked the Nigerians for standing by them during the trying and traumatic period.

“Words cannot express the immense gratitude and relief we feel at this moment. It is a true testament to the power of faith and the unwavering support and prayers from every one of you. From the bottom of our hearts, we thank Allah for His mercy and guidance throughout this difficult time.

“However, amidst our celebration and gratitude, we must remember and pray for those who have lost their lives during this process. Their sacrifices must not go unnoticed, and their families must be in our prayers and thoughts.

“May Allah grant them the highest ranks in Jannah, enveloping them with His mercy and forgiveness. May He bring comfort and peace to their grieving families, providing them with strength to endure their loss.

“Our beloved daughters have shown remarkable strength and resilience, and we are overjoyed to have them back in our arms. Their bravery and courage during their time held captive will forever inspire us all. May Allah bless and protect every one of these incredible young women and grant them emotional healing and strength in the days to come”.

It's another beautiful Sunday morning and I'm contemplating thoughts and actions from the past week while being grateful to GOD for Blessings and opportunities. Then I remember Ade from last night; The pretty girl who recently moved into the next compound and paid for my items at the corner shop in Iju.

Probably the hangover, or ptsd from previous dalliances with pretty girls, or maybe I was too engrossed in my discontent with Simmer's negotiation skills, all I know is I didn't give the situation as much attention as I ought to.

I simply thanked her, waited for the calculation of all she paid for and thanked her again before leaving.

Now I'm sitting at the gallery wing at Faith Tabernacle, for our special monthly anointing service and I'm beginning to realize countless ways I could have responded better to her generosity; possibly asked her phone contact.

I'm sure of a Change of Story Answer from Above By the end of the Service

The LORD GOD is my Shepherd.

Join us this Sunday and Be Blessed in Jesus name

Praise GOD

By GOD'S Grace, 21 days from now, what will happen to the turncoat celebs who have jumped on the Mohbad bandwagon.

Just like Peter Obi and LP's popularity gingered netizens all through the 2023 elections saga, Naira Marley projected the 'infamy' side of online campaigns.

Don't be surprised to see Iyabo Ojo casting Naira Marley in her next movie, or Tonto snugging up to him 21 says from now.

My thoughts go out to a certain DJ and others who wanted to steal their minute of fame off the ordeal of someone you once considered 'helper'. The fact that this certain DJ manipulated his mom into the whole drama makes the betrayal worse.

Would be want to associate with himself after such an act
