Congratulation

Respite has come for Majek Fashek as Femi Otedola reportedly takes over his medical bills.


Help has finally come for Majek Fashek as his hospital bills have been reportedly taken over by billionaire business mogul, Femi Otedola.

According to blogger, Linda Ikeji, the benevolent businessman has decided to foot all the medical bills for the reggae music icon who has been admitted at a London based hospital. His manager, Uzoma Day confirmed this to Linda Ikeji during a chat.


"We really appreciate him for coming through and taking care of the hospital bills. Its a huge relief and we are grateful. We however still need more support from well-meaning Nigerians to take care of other expenses," he said.


This latest development is coming days after Majek's manager had debunked the claims he was dead.

According to him, he was still in the hospital and only required prayers and funds from well-meaning Nigerians.

"Majek Fashek is not dead" - Manager confirms



According to him, the reports on social media about Majek Fashek's death are mere rumours.

He made this known via the reggae music icon' Instagram page on Sunday, September 15, 2019.

He also said the singer is responding to treatment and would require more donations and prayers from well-meaning fans and individuals.


"9:30 PM from London in Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Today is Sunday, this is to inform all the well-wishers, fans and lovers of Majek Fashek back in Nigeria that Majek is not dead, he is very fine. I just stepped out now because of this ongoing music that people are saying that he is dead. Let's not wish him dead, let's join hands and pray for him.


"For those of you that are praying, prayers are working, every day there is a gradual improvement. We need funds, we need money for maintenance. The notable Nigerians that deposited for his medication...but we still need money for other things. We also heard that people are raising money which is without our consent..." he said.

Umenka Uzoma's statement is coming after news of the reggae icon's reported death started making headlines. It would be recalled that a few days ago, the manager announced that Majek Fashek was gravely ill and hospitalised.

Lagos State government is to boost the entertainment industry by creating a one-stop shop for film makers in the state.


It said as part of its effort to boost the film and entertainment industry, film makers would also enjoy support from conceptualisation of ideas to the final production.

The Lagos State Commissioner for Tourism, Arts and Culture, Mrs. Shuli Adebolu, gave the assurance at the graduation of the pioneer MultiChoice Talent Factory Scholars drawn from across West Africa, held at the Lagos Business School, Ajah, at the weekend.

Mrs. Adebolu explained that the state was blessed with beautiful locations for film production and efforts were on to ensure the state has a one-stop centre that would ensure quality and timely production of films that meet domestic and international standards, which would grow the industry and also attract foreign investors.

She reiterated the commitment of the administration to the tourism and entertainment sector by ensuring that the state becomes a preferred destination for tourists and an entertainment hub on the continent.


Mrs. Adebolu said: “Lagos is the second largest in the amount of films produced on the continent globally. The state is, therefore, set to open her doors by creating an enabling environment, regulations and solid foundations that would make the sector a flourishing one that could successfully rival the likes of Hollywood and Bollywood entertainment industries.”

Commending MultiChoice for its Talent Factory initiative, she restated the readiness of Lagos State government to collaborate with the private sector and key stakeholders for the development of the industry to create jobs and make it a source of revenue for the state.

To be sincere the lyrics in the music did not make any sense

If Tiwa Savage continue singing wack like that she would soon become another upcoming artist

Surulereman:
You're almost correct but his grandma is not from Enugu but from Ngwa in Isiala Ngwa North LGA of Abia state. So Igbo blood flows in him.

That is why Davido is always bragging and beating chest

Most of those yorubas in agbor I'm talking about are from osun states. We gist a lot. The guy I told u about who played a huge role in my wedding is from osun state. He stayed in agbor before moving to sapele where he built his house. He is married to an abia woman and they have three kids.

One of my departmental guy, a yoruba guy from ekiti state is currently staying in nsukka now and has started life there. Becus u have been to enugu for two weeks, u now know enugu. Guy, Yoruba men and women plenty for aba, onitcha enugu. They are doing business, mainly in herbal niche. I won't argue with u again I can see u aren't really out of ur ethnic sentiment. Very crazy u could actually make such reply.

I am not saying there are no Yoruba in South East because that would just be stupid but saying they full there is just a lie


I have been to three state in South East and I know what I am saying

And You are the one that said I don't travel

I have traveled to three states in the East and I know what I am saying

Princedapace:
What is keep deceiving ur self? U sre the one deceiving ur self. I served in delta state, agbor precisely. There is full area hugely dominated by yorubas there. In fact, u will think u are in South west. I do go there to buy agbo to drink. I

One of the guys who played a major role during my wedding early this year na Yoruba who is based in Agbor before he migrated to Sapele where he built his house. In my department back in UNN where obtained my degree, we had some yorubas in our class. Many yorubas Dey UNN. I schooled in enugu and yorubas full there.

Go to aba, u will see many yorubas too. Anambra nkor? Dude, travel, okay.

There is a Yoruboid tribe In Delta State call Itshekiri so you may think they are Yoruba from South West

But that Enugu is a lie because I have been to Enugu

At least I spent 2 weeks in Enugu

In fact I have been to three states in South east and I know what I am saying when I say you are lying

There are some Yoruba in South East but saying they are full there is just a lie

Princedapace:
Come enugu, Yorubas full there.

Keep deceiving yourself

This news have a Political Undertone they should let's us rest

There Propaganda is not going to do any sh!t

Good development kudos to Wike

Aiyk2333:
an average Ibo girl will follow a Yoruba guy to suck him dry cuz they're always dead beat mugus.. they shiver at the sight of Ibo girls

I'm glad you admit an average Igbo girl is a gold digger but you are wrong about the rest

scaramucci:
Tell me one place you have seen Igbo women where their presence there is not as a result of the presence of Igbo men.

I schooled with more than 20 Igbo girls during my school days

After my school days I also worked with some of them

In fact 2 of the attendants and server in my favorite restaurant are Igbo, Igbo girls are also in my street


With the heavy presence of Igbo in South West there is no way some Yoruba guys and Igbo girls won't interact to the extent of having relationship

It is like some Nigerians getting married to South African ladies, Europeans etc

It would not be possible if Nigerians don't travel to their place or they travel to Nigeria


You only have a point if it is Yoruba guys that are all over South East hunting for women but they are rather the one all over our Land

scaramucci:
You mean Yoruba men prefer Igbo girls to Yoruba girls.

An average Yoruba guy who is doing great just wanna date an Igbo girl.

Lol Keep deceiving yourself

Your women are all over South West so it is understandable if some Yoruba men fall for them


In fact Yoruba marry from every tribes

It is not our fault that your women are all over our Land and ready to jump on a Yoruba dick


It is not like we are the one all over South East hunting for women

safarigirl:
Bollocks.

Your culture doesn't relate to clothes, it's your slave mentality that has you all covered up.

Clothes are sparsely won in African societies because the weather does not permit it, but because your mind has been enslaved by the white man, who is clothed, because his climate is cold, you suddenly assume unclothedness is for barbarians.

You are the Ignorant and naive one

You should have say dressing fully clothed is not in Igbo culture

When did Igbo start wearing clothes?

In Yoruba societies it is different

FFK left over

What did he go to USA for if he have nothing to do there?

I heard they pick money on the street in USA so he should start picking it ASAP

Why does the last one on the right resemble Kanu ?

The Osun State Government has said it planned to make Osogbo-Iwo road passable before the end of year 2019.

Responding to questions from our correspondent on Sunday, Remi Owowaye, the Supervisor for Works and Health, explained that heavy rain had slowed down the pace of work on the project.

He, however, said although the government had not set completion date target, efforts would be geared towards making the road passable before end of the year.


He also hinted of plan by the Oyetola administration to undertake complete reconstruction of the road in the nearest future and called for support of all stakeholders to ensure speedy completion of the rehabilitation work.

Meanwhile, Oluwo of Iwo, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, commended Oyetola for opening the major road to the Osun West Senatorial District in fulfilment of the promise he made at his palace during his electioneering.

Oba Akanbi in a statement on Sunday, said “I commend and appreciate the ,overnor for fulfilling his campaign promise on Iwo-Osogbo road.


“He has shown to be a man of God for respecting his pledge. The road will open Iwo and some other communities in Osun West area of the state capital and the whole world because this is the only straight road from Osogbo to Lagos.”

The World Bank Country Director for Nigeria, Africa Region, Rachid Banmessaoud, has declared Osun State as the best among participating states in Nigeria in the World Bank Rural Access and Mobility Project 2.

A statement by Ismail Omipidan, the Chief Press Secretary to Osun State government, on Sunday said the World Bank chief made the disclosure in a ‘Commendable Performance Letter,’ addressed to the state government.

Banmessaoud, in his letter, also said Osun had been recognised by World Bank Task Team Leaders as a strong performer in project implementation.


The letter read in part, “This is to appreciate your support and state’s participation in the just concluded Nigeria Portfolio Performance Awards ceremony hosted by the World Bank Country Office in Abuja, and to congratulate you on your state’s commendable performance which led to winning of the best performing state under the Rural Access and Mobility Project 2 (RAMP 2).


“Osun has also been recognised by World Bank Task Team Leaders as a strong performer in project implementation.


“The event recognised the performance of project implementation teams across the state and federal institutions. Furthermore, state delegates were afforded the opportunity to network and share knowledge with their colleagues from other states.”

The body invited Osun to its “FY20 Country Portfolio Performance Review which will focus on strengthening the coordination mechanism at state level to ensure Nigeria meets the FY20 Portfolio Performance Indicator Targets.”

This leaking Mouth is on the beat again

Anything to stay relevant

All Fani need is some cash to get more cocaine supply to sniff

legitnow:
Y is Lagos still buying India vehicle wen they can use made in Nigeria.

I hope Sanwo will extend the bridge to IVM.

Let us make peace not war.

So that you can give us another reason why Lagos is a no man's Land?

Besides there are 36 states in Nigeria why are you singling out Lagos?

ZombieTAMER:
He's a pastor for crying out loud

Leadership by example?... Abi

I don't think Bible support staying in marriage by Force

Ikechunna:
Let me guess where you got the bolded stats, from the voices on the mentally deranged heads of the Afonjas. Your brethren should have stayed in South Africa since in the deranged head of Afonjaa the victims are just Igbos. Why the hell are they running and abusing SA. Let them stay in SA.

As usual when informed how much I despise their demonic ass they started screeching All Niggerians as if Afonja are representative of all Niggerian. I DESPISE you Yorubas with every fiber of my being. Never said I dislike other tribes in that shithole.

Lastly, in crumbling Onyeama business if he refused Afonjas travel. This idiot actually thinks airline rate is based on tribal things. I'm guessing your idiotic ass think Airpeace only functions in Niggeria correct? . I repeat rapid mental illness is common with Afonja community. Hell that Igbo car maker that you Afonjas tried to cripple his business, Biko remind us again how far that went? Tell us, how much damage did your rubbish do?

It is very obvious you are the bitter and deranged soul here

I don't have time to argue with a bitter, sad and envious fool with victim mentality


You are the idiot Monkey because I never said Air Peace only operate in Nigeria

I said every Yoruba would stop using it but I think it is too difficult for your empty brain to comprehend

Idiocy and foolishness is common in Nyamirin community

And no Afonja try to cripple any Igbo car maker business

Ikechunna:
slowpoke EVERY ACTION Yorubas are getting are retailiation of actions from you lots since this worthless website came into place.

We were here when you Afonjas rejoiced when Boko Haram started. You people were making the assumption the targets were Igbos during that time. I'll be more than happy to back up this statement with screenshots of that Behavior on this forum. You lots did not stop that behavior until, similar to this Xenophobic attack, the list of victims were released and your brethren were littered on the list. Ironically, the layout is exactly like this. An igbo bus owner sent bus to North for any South interested to return back to North, ironically enough, your people equally littered the bus despite your moronic brethren on this forum rejoiced when they thought the victims were only igbo.

The second rejoicement of you people also was the first Xenophobia attack in 2008 which targeted Africans and again, your brethren rejoiced and applauded it simply because the list had more Biafrans killed during that time.

The third Xenophobic attacks which targeted Africans, this time you Afonjas were targeted more than Biafrans and I recall vividly that was when others started mocking your casualties to replicate una behaviors. If my memory serves me right, it was that same time you morons started claiming that rejoicing the death of others especially when foreigners are targeting Niggerian isn't time to be Tribalist.

Hell I recall when Massob members were murdered, you demons equally rejoiced over it and even started posting images of starving Igbo children during the war to mock them. All of these stems way wayyyy before anyone started replicating una behaviors.

The rejoicement of the death of others that weren't from the said person's tribe ALL stems from Afonjas behavior in the beginning of this website creation and I'll be more than fucking happy to prove it. Dare me!!

You can keep playing the Victims

Goodluck on your journey on being a bitter, sad and enivous victims generation

Ikechunna:
When have Yorubas EVER showed care for Igbos casualties in foreign lands? Infact, you demonic animals REJOICE and APPLAUD whenever you Demons decieve yourselves that the casualties are only Igbos. The Xenophobia attacks is a PERFECT EXAMPLE of that. Unfortunately for you people, each rejoicement always have a say for you people because una are NEVER spared in any of the casualties, not one time.

Bleep out of my mention. Onyeama should have left your brethren back there since it's only Igbos they targeted and being Yoruba protected them as you demons decieved yourselves. Ndi Enyi

This your wailing doesn't change the fact that majority of the Nigerians that died in South Africa due to Xenophobia were Igbo

And nothing stopped Allen Onyema from carrying only Igbo

It would only make you officially declare your hatred for other Nigerians and we Yoruba would gladly appreciate it

This is how you guys keep tribalizing every Igbo established businesses

You would tell us if is only Igbo that are patronizing Air Peace

Any discrimination from Air Peace against Yoruba means Air Peace would be boycotted by Yoruba and officially banned in Yoruba Land

Ikechunna:
Because the Afonjas do not care about the lives of their own people as long as their Igbos killed. Shit, anybody that's been to South Africa would find the moronic comments from Yorubas during the xenophobic attacks highly delusional. I even told the idiots that Yorubas were not spared during xenophobic attacks and their population in South Africa is just as much as the Igbos there but, as usual, the idiots decieve themselves. I recall one even, on this forum, documented that South Africa calms down when the said person mentions they are Yoruba. That's really one of the stupid comments I heard from Yorubas on this page. Yorubas behavior emphasizes my theory that they wish to kill Igbos but too Cowardly to do so hence, whenever an attack occurs and they think the victims are igbo they rejoice. From when Boko Haram started to now, is always the same behavior by Afonjas hence I despise those mofos.

Honestly, I'm glad Onyeama has a heart of Gold. He's a better man than I am because if it was me, I would have made Airpeace just for Igbos and Igbos only. Afonjas should wait for Tinubu to save them..dude is a great man with a good heart. Thank God for that!! Na me, I would have been extremely petty.

Playing Victims card as usual, always accusing others of what you are guilty of

As if you didn't celebrate when there were some Fulani herdsmen issues in South West in fact you were the one digging out the bad news and gloating over it even when the same things were happening in your backyard

You are always wishing that Fulani will invade South West and slaughter a lot of people for you to gloat about

You gloat and rejoice over every bad news from South West

You envy and hate Yoruba and want us dead but you are too cowardly to say sh!t to our face in real life

You can only cry marginalization, claim victims in order to be pity and deceive others, beat chest and then rant online
