Celebrities / Dare Art Alade To Host The Unveiling Of GAC Motors’ Latest GS4 Brand In Lagos by Orikinla(m): 10:57am On Dec 07, 2016
Dare Art Alade To Host The Unveiling of GAC Motors’ Latest GS4 Brand in Lagos on December 12.

Nigeria is about to witness a giant leap in its automobile industry. It’s the car revolution we have all been waiting for!

On Monday 12th December 2016, China’s leading automaker GAC motors will be unveiling its premiere GS4 brand at the Eko Hotels and Suites, Victoria Island Lagos. A delegation from China led by the General Manager of GAC Motors will be making their first visit to Nigeria for this high profile event. It will be hosted by the award winning musician Dare Art Alade who would also be giving a stellar performance at the event.

The GS4 brand has scored many ­firsts. GS4 scored 80.68 points in the C-ECAP assessment and became the ­first SUV vehicle model to receive the gold medal.  This best-selling model has just made its debut to Lagos, Nigeria where it is currently been assembled. It has optimal fuel efficiency with a combined fuel consumption of 6.3 L/100 km (37.3 MPG) and only 36dB in idling noise to provide undisturbed driving space for car owners.

Speaking about the vehicle, Chief Diana Chen, Chairman of CIG Motors and Chief host of the event said "Applying sustainable and eco-friendly technologies in vehicle production and automotive decoration is one of our primary goals. All cars manufactured by GAC Motor follow the highest standards and use only the best quality and environmental friendly materials." It would also be recalled that Chief Diana Chen is the first Chinese woman to receive a Chieftaincy title here in Nigeria.

No doubt this is a choice car for Nigerians and it has been said continuously in the automotive industry in Nigeria that the launch of the GS4 car is set to create a revolution in Nigeria’s automobile Industry.

The Unveiling is expected to be an event of pomp and pageantry as select stakeholders of Nigeria’s automobile industry, captains of industry, celebrities, political leaders and heads of corporate organisations have confirmed attendance. Some of the celebrities who will be gracing this occasion are Stephanie Linus, who received a car from GAC Motors for carting away the Best Overall Movie In Africa Award at the AMVCA Awards 2016

and the award winning Movie Director, Kunle Afolayan.

Chikelue2000:
On a very good day, NOI will win PMB in a sane country not like
Nigeria, any day, anytime, anywhere, any hour
.

You are politically naive.
NOI Polls cannot win 1% of votes in northern Nigeria and she cannot win 20% in the south west and cannot win 40% in the south south. But she can win 50% only in the south east.
South easterners vote for who pays them well, even if it is the devil. They vite for Mammon.

Books are imperishable testimonials of life. They last longer than cars, houses and even people.

Any competition you ask people to vote can be rigged.

I can confidently say many of those who voted did not read the stories.

The flash fiction is okay for starters.

Too many irresponsible people in Nigeria.
Irresponsible parents so careless with their helpless children who never asked to be born poor to suffer in the world.

Irresponsible NYSC administrators so careless with the precious lives of corps members.

Irresponsible reckless drivers and many of them who cannot read and write bribed FRSC officials to obtain driver's license.
Majority of Hausa drivers cannot even read road signs.

Irresponsible governors with irresponsible commissioners.

Irresponsible government with irresponsible ministers and irresponsible DGs.

TV/Movies / The First Nigerian Film To Cause A Stampede At The Box Office by Orikinla(m): 7:55am On Dec 06, 2016
How Dr. Ola Balogun Made Nigeria'First Box Office Blockbuster "Ajani Ogun" for Duro Ladipo

I said; why don’t I make film in the style of the Yoruba theatre which was such a tremendous success in Nigeria. There is a funny story I love to tell people. You know in those days the cinemas were mostly controlled by the Indians and the Lebanese. Only one or two Nigerians had the control of cinema theatres. There was a gentle man called George Nicole. He was a lawyer. He had a cinema theatre and controlled what was then called Glover Cinema. He ran the successful cinema house. So, I traced his house. He lived near St. Gregory’s College in Lagos. In those days in Nigeria, you could go to someone’s house without knowing him and ring the door bell and when he answers, you tell him what you want and he will gladly attend to you.

So I went to George Nicole’s house. After the usual pleasantries, I told him: “I am a Nigerian and I made a film and I would like you to show it in your cinema theatre.” In fact, he laughed so hard that I was forced to join him in the laughter. So together we laughed. He said to me, “First of all, you are a Nigerian, you could not have made a film because Nigerians don’t make films. Secondly, if you have made what you call a film, it cannot be a real film because where they make films, they have studios like in Hollywood or like in Delhi and Bombay. We don’t have such in Nigeria; so where did you make this thing you call a film?” So we laughed together again. And he said, “you are a real joker”. And I said no.

I said to him, “if you want to know the reality of what I have told you, why don’t you allow me when you are having your next film show during the interval for publicity, then you can allow this film of mine for one minute. If the audience is interested, maybe we can talk together to allow me to show it”. So, he agreed and next time he showed excerpts of it during the period of the advertisement. And the audience went wild because they could see their own people on the screen. They could hear their own language Yoruba on the screen. They were shouting. And the man said, “Ok, you have something that can be shown. But let us show it for only one night, only one night, you hear!” And we agreed. That night, I could not get near the theatre myself.

There were thousands of people struggling to get into that cinema theatre. The man himself had his agbada torn, he lost his shoes. But he was happy. You know why? He was inside the box office counting the money. Like a fool, I was outside admiring the crowd.

That’s how Ajani Ogun got made and it was so popular. The young man who was the lead actor Ade Afolayan came from somewhere in Kwara State. He had a friend who was a fairly wealthy businessman. I think he made toothpaste and things like that. I can’t remember his name now……

Is it a natural cause if a girl lies in a hospital unattended to for hours because there are no competent staff to attend to her? Is it a natural cause for a guy to be vomitting blood!!
