Abuja's popular female event and artist manager recently stage her birthday party at COSMIC Lounge in Abuja which attracted several entertainment practitioners and models.

It was indeed a celebration galore as there was so much to wine and dine with at that prestigious birthday night of Linda Yusuf popularly called "LYNGRACE"

No doubt the party recorded an impressive turn especially because of her goodwill in showbiz in Abuja as she is always disposed to support in several events.

Another notable presence at the party is popular nollywood actor and Vanguard sexiest star Benson Okonkwo who stormed Abuja for the bash. It is worthy to note that the celebrant and actor have been friends for a long time and he always puts up appearance at her every event in Abuja or beyond.

Also at the party was top society lady and CEO of Mariyo House, a record label and artist management company.

In truth, it was a night the CEO of LynGrace Entertainment will not forget in a hurry as she was greatly celebrated by friends and fans.

It indeed a night of fun and overwhelming memories as the Miss United Nigeria pageant took centre stage at the prestigious Transcorp Hilton Abuja last Saturday. The event which paraded over 45 contestants on stage had Nigeria's top sports Ambassador and obviously the star of the night as the Chief Judge.

Amb. John Fashanu popularly known as FASH spearheaded the judges table which was applauded for its high level of credibility especially with regards to the worthy winners that emerged that night. For a very long time in a pageant setting, the audience went home satisfied with the verdict of the judges.

The Nigerian born British citizen and international media impresario is not a greenhorn in the business of pageantry as he was among the judges at the recent Miss World beauty pageant held in South and one held in England years ago.

Fash who displayed high level of simplicity and professionalism was the cynosure as he mounted the stage to announce the result of the winners. 23 years old undergraduate of UNN, Vivian Adaeze Nnamani emerged winner and was crowned Miss United Nation Nigeria 2015 in a tightly contested pageant show.

Another attraction of the night was when star artist and Nigeria's popular female singer Chidinma left the stage to dance with Fashanu, a move that arrested the attention of the audience at the star-studded event which also featured A.Y, Klint Da Drunk, Gandoki etc.

As several people trekked long distances to felicitate with winners of the just concluded 2015 general elections, two people have commenced trekking from Makarfi to Kaduna to sympathise with Governor Muktar Yero.



NAN reports that Yero lost the Kaduna State Governorship seat to Malam Nasir El-Rufai during the April 11 election.



Speaking in an interview with journalists in Zaria on Sunday, one of the trekkers, Malam Rabi’u Sarkin-Musulmi, said they started the journey early Sunday morning at about 2:00a.m.


“We started the journey from Makarfi, headquarters of Makarfi Local Government Area of Kaduna State at about 2:00a.m. and we expect to be in Kaduna by 1:00p.m. on Monday, May 11.



“The essence of our trekking is to go and sympathise with Gov. Muktar Yero over his defeat during the governorship election.



“We want to show him love, concern and encourage him not to give-up on his political ambition,” he said.



His co-trekker, Malam Abdulmuminu Dakare, said as bonafide PDP members, they believed that power comes from God Almighty, “this is what our leader, Gov. Muktar Yero is preaching.



“He always believes that nobody can give you power except God Almighty, the giver and taker of all powers,” he said.



Dakare also said that they initiated the trek to satisfy their urge and to convey a message of succour and relief to the out-going governor.
