Bloggers ehn
Yungsix ke?wen poe,falz(yes falz),showdemcamp still dy?

I remember watching the interview too. The dude was sipping from a cup during the interview and he clearly said trap which is not pure rap but a fusion of hip hop and electronic music. I also remember the lady interviewing him saying 'this guy dey really feel himself' having seen how pompous he was, to which he replied, 'if I no feel myself who go feel me.' Nigerian entertainment bloggers are the laziest.

Politicians and eye service. SMH.

Going by comments above, it's safe to say Nigeria problem isn't the politicians but the buffons and illiterates who make up majority of the electorates. I mean why would any educated progressive vote for Adeleke given all the evidence against his candidacy? Why can't we rise beyond religious, ethnic and party line and collectively vote for the best candidate in every election?

Lol. Look how fat she's become.

Rubbish. Lagosians must wake up and say no to godfather politics.

just some irrelevant award from an irrelevant group.

An allegation like rape and you're pretending like heaven will fall if you open your laptop to debunk it during your honeymoon. Bruh methinks you ain't got nothing to say.

Nairaland now majors in posting irrelevant news from hungry bloggers. SMH.

Must you capture everything?

Rich kid how about you split that money and touch more lives?

Nigerian politicians have zero integrity. Just look at how he termed someone he'd consciously endorsed as the future of Akwa Ibom a mistake just because he deflected to a new party. SMH.

The marital challenge between Tonto Dikeh and her ex Husband, Churchill Olakunle has taken a new dimension as the actress and her friend seem to have teamed up to arrest Abuja Based popular Media Practitioner Alex Nwankwo.

Nwankwo who is known to be the publicist of Big Church Foundation was accused to have posted a story on an instagram page @church_exwives_association allegedly operated by him. He was said to be arrested after honouring a call from an unknown person for an advert feature on his platforms.

AlexReports was picked up with his Secretary by the Nigeria police in Maitama, Abuja after he was wrongly accused on the issue of defamation which he denied with substantial evidence.

According to him, “It beats my imagination to be arrested and made to pass a night in the police custody for a crime I know nothing about… it was indeed a terrible experience without any visible evidence linking me to the report on instagram which several blogs feasted on. But I don’t think I want to talk about it now because the case is still under investigation owing to the fact that the accusation was filed by one Tonto Dikeh’s Fashion Designer”

The publicist who lamented over inhuman treatment melted on him by the inmates at the Police cell alleged that the Fashion Designer who filled the case wants to use Churchill’s publicists which he is one of them to get at him. He also confirmed that the same instagram page which he knew nothing about posted another defaming story while he was in detention signifying his innocence on the accused claims.

In spite of numerous media reports that it has changed its operating name to 9Mobile, authorities at Etisalat Nigeria are yet to issue any official statement.

Etisalat, which controls a 13 per cent market share in Nigeria, has had a running battle with a consortium of 13 banks since March after it notified them of its inability to service its $1.2 billion debt in February.

A source who spoke to The Guardian on Friday said the telecom company was truly dropping Etisalat as its operating name but no firm decision has been made in that regard.

"A number of options are being considered but no final decision has been made," the source said, declining to confirm whether 9Mobile is among the options being considered by the telecom company.

Etisalat Nigeria was prompted to change its operating name after its foreign partner, Dubai-based Emirates Telecommunications Corporation (ETC), which controls 45 per cent shareholding in Etisalat Nigeria, gave the Nigerian arm three weeks within which it must change the brand name.

The source who spoke with The Guardian said the telecom firm was hard done by the volatile foreign exchange rates and negative economic growth in Nigeria. But an official of the company said in June that about 42 per cent of the loan had been repaid.

“As at today, we can categorically state that the outstanding loan sum to the consortium (of banks) stands at $227 million and N113 billion, a total of about $574 million if the naira portion is converted to US dollars. This, in essence, means almost half of the original loan of $1.2 billion, has been repaid," said Ibrahim Dikko, Etisalat Nigeria's vice president, Regulatory and Corporate Affairs.
However, Etisalat Nigeria last week, via a statement, insisted that the withdrawal of the right to use the name in Nigeria by ETC would not disrupt its services in the country.

“Emerging Markets Telecommunication Services Limited, trading as Etisalat Nigeria hereby assures its customers and other stakeholders that Etisalat Group’s reported withdrawal of the right to the continued use of the Etisalat brand in Nigeria by EMTS does not in any way imply discontinuation of our business as Nigeria’s fourth largest mobile service provider," read part of the statement.

A Nigerian telecom industry expert had told The Guardian earlier in the week that the name change was inevitable following the departure of ETC from Nigeria. But the official said he did not think services to subscribers would be impacted negatively.

“It appears that this change in name from Etisalat Nigeria will hopefully not mean a change for the worst in terms of the quality of service Etisalat was known for in its data service offering," said Olusola Teniola, who is the president of the Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria.

"We expect a proactive communication from the new management of what this means to their loyal customers.”
