This is what he posted on Facebook......


"There was this day I was travelling to Abuja to shoot a movie and I got into the aircraft and met this woman, she was older than my mother. As I made to put my bag in the overhead compartment, I greeted her but she didn't answer me. I just ignored her and sat down. On arrival in Abuja, the woman was struggling to get her luggage from the compartment and I just stretched my hand and helped her to get it. She asked for it without a thank you but I refused to

more after the jump

give it to her, offering to help her take it down. On getting out of the aircraft, she again requested for her luggage but I said, madam I'll take it to the arrival hall for you and she looked at me with bewilderment."


"When we got to the arrival hall I turned to the woman and handed her luggage to her and as I made to leave, she called me by my name. I was surprised and retorted, so madam you even know my name. But why did you not answer me when I greeted you on board the aircraft. She then said, "Mike, I've come across a lot of your Nollywood mates and they seem to be pigheaded so that is why I always want to distant myself from them." I just smiled and told her I'm not like that."


She asked where I was going and I felt she wanted me to ride with her into town. I told her I was in Abuja to shoot a movie. I then turned to leave but some four or five policemen who must have come to pick her told me to wait. I said what's my own, I've helped her to this place and I want to go. They however insisted that I should wait. I didn't really know who the woman was but the long and short of it all was that she ended up giving me three plots of land in Abuja."

Wow!! It sure pays to be nice. There is no need to be nasty, celebrity or not.

Celebrities / Picture Of Don Jazzy Dining With American Music And Media Mogul, Ralph Simon by eric1960: 5:45pm On Oct 03, 2013
http://www.yeoal.com/2013/10/picture-don-jazzy-dines-with-american.html

This is who Ralph Simon is according to Wikipedia.........

Ralph Simon is regarded as a founder in the modern Mobile Entertainment Industry.
Simon co-founded the independent Zomba Group of music companies (now a subsidiary of Sony Music Entertainment) with Clive Calder in the 1970s. In the mid-90s, he was Executive Vice President of Capitol Records and Blue Note Records in Hollywood and started EMI Music's global New Media division. He started Yourmobile (later renamed Moviso), the first ring tone company in the Americas, Europe, UK, Australia and Africa, in 1997.[1]
In 1998 Simon predicted that, "Mobile phones would become the indispensable voice/social networking and music companion for consumers and their increasing mobile lifestyles." He worked on convincing United States music publishers to grant the very first ring tone rights. This resulted in the dubbing of Simon as "The Father of the Ring Tone."[1]
Mobile Entertainment magazine has named him as one of the world's Top 50 executives in Mobile Entertainment three times, in 2005, 2006, and 2008. In 2007, he received its special award for Outstanding Contribution to the Global Mobile Entertainment Industry.[1]
Simon heads the Mobilium Advisory Group. He is the founder and Chairman Emeritus of the Mobile Entertainment Forum – Americas.[


One prayer I always say is "may I dine with Kings and Queens". Don Jazzy is already doing that. I tap into his anointing in Jesus Name. Amen!!

Celebrities / Julius Agwu Banned By Telecoms Chief For Cracking Vulgar Jokes by eric1960: 4:15pm On Sep 28, 2013
http://www.yeoal.com/2013/09/julius-agwu-black-listed-by-telecoms.html


There has been gist floating around that ace comedian Julius Agwu was allegedly blacklisted by a top telecoms chief because he allegedly cracked a vulgar joke. He however denied the rumor claiming he was actually blacklisted based on gossip.

“Nigerians thrive on gossip. It is gossip that causes some of the quarrels we hear about even at the Federal Government level. Somebody said something to somebody who also said it to another person and I was blacklisted. But we thank God. We have been eating. The blacklist has expired. I am sure so many people do not know the root of this matter.
“The chairman was not even at that event. I didn’t make a vulgar joke. I made a joke and asked why our people always fake their accents each time they travelled abroad. It wasn’t a bad joke but somebody misinterpreted it.
“I know I am blunt but I am not unintelligent as to not know what to say at corporate events. I thank God that I am no longer blacklisted. I have been invited to be a part of an upcoming show,” .


He also revealed that Julius Agwu, Rough Rugged and Raw will be his last vulgar show.

“That show will be for 18 plus and it will be my last vulgar show” .

I wonder who the telecoms chief is. *thinking*

Celebrities / Prezzo Wanted By Police For Beating Up Swiss Military Man by eric1960: 11:37pm On Sep 27, 2013
http://www.yeoal.com/2013/09/bba-contestant-prezzo-wanted-by-kenyan.html


Police say they want Prezzo aka Jackson Makini is to report to Parklands Police Station for grilling after he allegedly assaulted a Swiss military officer in the head with gun butt and holster on Saturday morning.
The two are said to have been involved in an argument outside Aqua Bar over a parking slot at about 3am.
According to Gigiri Division police boss Vitalis Otieno, Prezzo had obstructed the military colonel from Switzerland which prompted the argument.
"When the military officer came back ready to go, an argument broke out over the parking slot which degenerated to an assault using a gun. We want him to report at Parklands," said Otieno.
The military officer is attached to Amisom and was headed to Ethiopia Saturday morning when the incident occurred. He was forced to cancel his flight. Otieno said he was treated and discharged from MP Shah Hospital.
And after the drama, Prezzo is said to have tried to cock and shoot at the officer who was bleeding at that time.
Otieno cited witnesses who said Prezzo was restrained by his bodyguards who dragged him to his car and drove off.
A hunt on him was on-going on Saturday morning even as police appealed to him to surrender.
Police visited his home but they did not find him.

Nigerian social media is very active right now and Nigerian celebrities have mastered the .
art of using it to their advantage.

Among all the social media platforms, Twitter seems to be the most popular and the most interactive of the lot. I hear the popularity of a celeb in Nigeria is usually judged by the amount of followers they have.

Gist has it that some companies usually weigh the strength and popularity of celebs on twitter before they are approached for endorsement deals making it an important part of celebrity branding and endorsements in Nigeria

While Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade Ekeinde is the most popular Nigerian celeb on Facebook (she has over one million likes), let's count down the most popular and influential Nigerian celebs on Twitter right now.
