Brother, this whole episode is extremely enlightening. It shows that many Nigerians are envious monsters who despise other people's success and would exploit any window of opportunity to bring you down because of that. It's like they are oppressed by your success and they cannot even disguise it.

Imagine the senseless and baseless comments many fools are dropping here and elsewhere. What exactly is Linda's crime? She is a blogger, and her job entails reporting soft news about public figures, whether good bad or ugly....which we can liken to some sort of e-soft sell platform. Conventional soft sell platforms like City People Magazine, Enconmium, and Yes Magazine write far WORSE things, many times even untrue, about celebrities and public figures. How come the publishers of these magazines (Seye Kehinde and Co) don't get this level of hate? Even bloggers like Stella Dimoko report more bile and slanderous things than Linda would ever dare, but because Stella doesn't live in Banana Island, she does not have the 'privilege' of being subjected to this level of hate and envy.

It is truly incredible. A nation of pathetic losers and envious haters.

Word! the day stella becomes mega rich...she ll be the next target...

I888:
she didn't make blogging what it is today. If you don't know the history of blogging, why not find out its history? She isn't the first blogger and there are silent bloggers who do theirs with professionalism.

Do you see the damage her method of blogging has done to Nigerian blogosphere, even up to the extent that people now hack traffic source just for adsense clicks. I know a dude who does this.

Would I blame you? No. This is Nigeria where people sell their souls because of money, little wonder she is ready to say anything controversial because of money.

ok...since she isn't who made blogging what it is...can you tell me who did?

let me educate a lot of u ignorant folks here...


you see...Press/Media/Journalism law is the only area of law where if someone reports something and you say its a lie...the onus of disproving that fact lies with you...


so if Linda says femi did DNA or RMD has a house or wizkid got evicted....they are the ones to take her to court and prove she is wrong or inacurate....


she can then rely on either legal defences called 'truth' or 'justification'

i would have considered it necessary to educate you on the above but there is no point since the people denying those storius(wiz didnt even deny his own) never even went to court.

you think if she was lying they wont have gone to court to get some 'share' of her wealth?

I888:
But Bella is more respected than Linda. Money isn't everything my dear. She isn't a professional blogger. It's high time she separates herself from the park.

hardly read the Bella thing...

But for you to be the No 1 blogger...you will def step on toes...

blogging or news reportage isnt based on 'niceness' or reporting what is 'nice'...if that's bella's business model...then Linda will always be ahead...

I ve chatted a few times with linda and i know shez courteous and level headed. most often times, she will find time to reply your mails to her within minutes.

yall cut her some slack.

saintdennis:
Shekau discovered a way to be famous and have many followers... why is the world beefing?

Receive sense

The difference is that her hustle adds value...pple go to her blog to read stories and news whilst shekau's own kills pple...



Hers is legal...shekau's isnt...


Am doubtful your brain can process this difference in the two pple u mentioned...but @ least try..

babyfaceafrica:
other celebs are intimidated by her wealth ke?.....is she richer than all the people she is clashing with?...am just waiting for the day she. Go try rubbish with politicians ,then she go know say blood is thicker than palm oil

Actually...she is richer than all the celebs you know in Nigeria...bar politicians or children of billionaires...


and the reason is not far fetched...she runs a huge money generating platform with minimal operating cost...


she makes money from clicks and adverts...even mere views turn to money for her...she has done well for herself....no need beefing...


No other celeb has that operating model...none even comes close...



some of yall supportin wiz are part of Wizkid's PR team so i understand your position....but linda is smarter than wiz in managing her business...simple!

islandmoon:
so, there is no fact in her family to right about? why didnt she write about her sister Laura or her parent instead of Femi kuti innocent kids? is she paying you? Okay , she will still write jargon about your family!

Guardian...Vanguard....Times magazine...do u ever see them write report on their own internal stories aside positive news?


or have u seen cnn write about their staff who resigned or did something bad?

common!

You dont

kumulus:
What's wrong For real niqqur!! And you even said you're sure she's got facts....wow, so you leave inside that White House in banana island too....

I don't have to. Its called 'circumstantial evidence'. U can get a lawyer to explain it to u.

In all of this...has wiz denied it?

csc2:
Go and sleep joor.

And they ran out of points...

babyfaceafrica:
what's my problem if there is nothing in the news?...who force am to become blogger?..aint there ethical and moralistics jobs out there....am not even concerned wizboy abi wetin be in name...linda is always on peoples case..na only she waka come...always having conflicts up and down......my question is mention two other big bloggers that have dis kind of acrimonious relatiosnhip with celebs like Linda?

Stella dimorkus did recently with AY with the story of the wife packing out. Kemi olunloyo just did this past week with Bianca Ojukwu...and these re the two oda known ones....Linda's own is more cos she is the biggest and the most successful. other celebs are intimidated by her wealth too...

The main ethics in journalism is reportage of facts and no one is even disputing she reported facts! You tink if she was lying...wiz wouldn't have counter-sued after she took him to the commissioner of police?

Guys...even if a celeb is a 'god' to you...try advocate intelligently...

I don't always agree with Linda but in this case she was very right!

csc2:
How many times will i warn you? I said go and sleep.

And your point is?

Dunno y some of u are just hating on the poor lady.

She discovered a source of income and then yall re beefing her success. #shame

angels09:
The fact that you put fact after a statement does NOT make it a fact!
lindaikeji is a manipulative and very repugnant character, she an excuse for what all a woman should not be. Who told you it is true and at what point did she confirm from whizkid before publishing the story about him?

since you have now started supporting child molestation I pray your kids don't share the same trauma that Femi Kuti's kids went through via her unscrupulous publication about DNA test! what is her problem? what has gotten into her? we shall be at the court if she attempts it. wizzy is the victim here not the bully lindaikeji

Comon!

If it's not a fact...wiz wud have sued! same goes for Femi. They served notice on wiz...except u re part of his pr team or an unrepentant supporter of wiz wud u ffault linda on that case...

If they feel she is lying...they shd go to court!


Am sure she has her facts before publishing.m and there's nothing wrong in that

babyfaceafrica:
she intrudes into people personal lives,she will suffer for that...people deserve privacy,you can't suffer people and be at peace

Bros...when u become a celeb...ur private life becomes pple's bizness. else there won't be anything in the news.

All over the world...its done. wiz shd not start sulking cos it showed him out

DJBIGGY:
Egbon... what bellanaija has achieved. Linda is a baby next to it...

Lol. Funny u...


Just go and check webmetrics and compare both blogs.

You ll understand. Even Nairaland that started before Linda doesn't have the viewership she has

Joe4lv:
Trust me on this: the fall of LIB is closer than we thought.

A woman who lives on the downfalls of people is the devil herself.

I don't support violence against women but Linda is insensitive in her publication on wizkid matter.

She should go get a life by buying a husband as she claims she can do.

She is the biggest blogger and the one who made blogging what it is today...get over it.

And this 'she doesn't have a husband shit pple kip talkin about is baffling! Do u know how many thousands of men wud be approaching her? Gold diggers and non gold diggers alike? She is choosy and taking her time...wud prefer her to a broken home Tony Payne anyday.

She wrote facts on wiizkid! Facts!

When did it become a crime to report facts?

Tony Payne...abeg keep quiet and go and continue the blow.job u were giving ruggedman. Abi no be ur ex hubby sing am?

Common!

The lowest lifers are pple who beef u secretly but only come out in the open when u re fighting someone else...

Ode!

Some of us actiively campaigned for APC to come to power. If they take out saraki and leave Tinubu when both were guilty of the same thing...


We will also campaign against APC at all levels. He who comes to equity must come with clean hands. U can't be using a judicial agency to punish an anti tinubu politician


What is good for d goose is also good for the gander

DonnyT:
So they should pass the law to weaken the agency so looters can thrive and your unborn generation can continue to languish in pain and sorrow. What a brainless human being you're. I smh for you and your generation.

I made my argument...u didn't address it...u re throwing insults. and yes if it promotes selective jsttice it sshd be scrapped. I have studied legal systems for almst 2 decades and there is no point having a judicial system that only promotes Jstice ffor one set of pple and ignores others. That isn't justice, that's oppression. Its not cos am brainless...its cos u are ignorant and don't knw what law is meant to achieve. it's also cos u re not enlightened and u find it difficult to reason with ur brain.

I don't have a problem with them doing that to an agency which is only being used by the executive shamelessly.

you leave Tinubu for same offence and then pursue saraki...

Then you say Tinubu was freed in error and he walks free while you are going after saraki?

no proper justice system survives with an uneven scale...

I would even recommend that the senate passes a law to scrap it.

A little honesty is needed @ OP

First, Fayose never addressed anyone.

look at the picture below. He only stood on the podium to take pictures. Nobody even noticed he was standing there...

Those white guys at the front are even looking at him like 'wetin dey do this one'?

He was probably waiting for a train or was in an open space mall and his team wanted to scam pple and make it look like the event was organised for him...

Too much propaganda these days.

#shame #dishonest

Omo! see packaging...

See as she con fine...

Thank God say we don see the things wey dey inside those cloths

Did she just call this old man 'birthday boy'?


Chai...see as punany don make old man lose respect....

pele o...

xharder:
Ignorance is a disease.

It is not shoprite that is been opened, it is onitsha mall. Shoprite is just a mega supermarket inside onitsha mall...

The mall is indigenously owned, while shoprite is a tenant in the mall the same way you have other brands like slot,cold stone, mr bigg, mr price or even some pharmaceutical companies selling the products and offering consultation services to their customers inside their shops in the mall....

You are a big mumu. Ignorance by who?

Of course i freaking know shoprite is a tenant. Same way its a tenant in palms, lekki and also cycle mall in lekki. shoprite however is the mall's flagship. so what new information do you have that i am not aware of?

The issue is that the mall wasn't built by govt so its not an 'achievement' by your hero governor.

I am sure you are intelligent enough to comprehend this or political asslickin wont allow you?

emrain:
Olodo, it's a mall. Shoprite just rented a space there.

And your point?

Of course i know its a mall! All shoprite outlets are situated in Malls....

The issue is...was it built by govt?

Why are Nigerian Governors soo annoying and seeking cheap publicity...if a shoprite opens in south africa...no one will even notice...its not a freaking govt project!
Jeez!

Ikechu12781:
You are very stupid. Ojukwu was the son of a billionaire who used the wealth of his family income to pay for everything biafran soldiers used. Go tell your lies to others cause the rest of us know what Ojukwu did for the Igbo nation. I even did a project on this hero and he didn't just start helping igbo during biafra, he started way before Biafra even began or was even thought up

Kids everywhere. Actually, you are the silly one.

so it was his father's money he used to purchase the plane? or it was his father's money he was spending as the governor of the eastern region? or it was his father that was sending him money he was spending when your anscestors were being slaughtered because ojukwu entered an obviously senseless war?

Its your choice whoever you decide as your hero...

But his egoistic and reckless decisions cost millions of Igbo lives.

Surely you are sensible enough to think through all i have posted? or are you not?

small time he ll say he is in spain to look for 'investment'

folks4luv:
stuff like that happens all d time. wat happened to u was bad, but den, one need to consider those celebrities too. some fans are civil n respectful, but some are not, n who know what he has been through that day to make d bouncers react that way.

True that. Although I sent him a dm and mention

Justycxx:
That was as a result of war.

But he was using the nice 'first class' plane and car during the time of war...

Smartiegurl:
kikikikiki. I just dey laugh you.
buh seriously dude, who ask you? no offence...

I noticed you weren't attentive...just read up...you will see who asked.

besides, i dont have to be asked to talk about my experience with the boy when a thread concerning him is opened.

#no offence taken

silvermania:
really?

yep...and it wasnt even like i walked up to him...finished from the office and thought i should see a movie so the traffic to lekki would have eased....
he was in front of me trying to buy a ticket and i was talkin to him to take a selfie...one small hausa lookin boy just shoved me that they are not takin pics...

i was a bit embarrassed (imagine o...me wey be big boy for bank naim dem push aside) cos i know many of these celebs...i am a lawyer and some of the popular ones u know today...i drafted their first deals...

so when i see small boy with two hit songs forming Michael Jackson...i feel sad for him...

met MI at SPAR, lekki and wanted to take a selfie...my blackberry went off...guy waited till it came on and took the selfie with me...so really...if MI can do that...who is Korede Bello?
