Fuji star, Abass Akande aka Obesere has written a script centred around the rape scandal he was recently involved in and is presently shopping for actors who will interpret the role effectively. Confirming this, his publicist Deola Adeoti said; “The movie is targeted at unraveling the mystery behind the rape scandal. A whole lot of things have been said about him in the past few weeks, but I think this movie will tell the world the plain truth. Apart from his own experience, Obesere is aware of some men who had been blackmailed with this same scandal and he felt that it was high time he exposed some of these women of evil.”

"I have been having back pain lately, and when I went to my doctor for that, he said I was carrying load on my chest; that’s what’s causing it.

Revered Nigerian Prophet, TB Joshua, has engaged in an interactive session of questions and answers with his nearly 1m fans on Facebook, giving interesting insight into contentious issues within Christianity. The session was tagged #AskTBJoshua and dealt with issues ranging from disunity in the church and the proficiency of pastor’s children to misbehave. One reader surmised that pastors "don’t seem to be one" today, asking Joshua what he felt was the cause. His response: "We pastors, we are one," TB Joshua, who is the founder of popular Christian television station Emmanuel TV, began. “However, a man may confess, 'I am a pastor' but not such in heart – [such men are] intruders. We may bear the same name but we are not doing the same work.” On how people can identify a Real Pastor, he said...

This is surprising because I had thought he was a quiet child and now a quiet adult. Read his story: Visually-impaired ace music composer, producer and singer, Cobhams Asuquo, tells Ademola Olonilua of the Punch about his childhood and music career. What was growing up like for you? I lived in the barracks and it was fun. Some people might see the barracks as squalid, malignant and rough but it was my life. I loved it. From a barracks at Jos to Ikeja Military Cantonment; I loved it. I am a barracks boy and I am 100 per cent proud of that. I lived among Nigerians from different tribes. It gave me a lot of perspectives and insight into a lot of people’s lives. The barracks in a lot of ways prepared me for my musical journey because I got to meet people. I got introduced to different styles of music, different lingos. If I had not lived in the barracks, I would not have been able to understand the culture of the Idoma; neither would I understand that of the Tiv and the Nupe. The barra...

Pastor Chris Okotie of Household of God International Ministries posted this an article on his official Facebook page on the tragic stampede at the Nigeria Immigration Service recruitment. Read; The big news this week was the inauguration of the National Conference, but the deaths of more than 16 young applicants who died in Abuja and other venues, during the Nigerian Immigration Service, NIS recruitment exercise, overshadowed it. This tragedy mirrors the desperate situation of Nigeria. One only hopes that this unfortunate loss of lives, coupled with the incessant Boko Haram killings and other youth-based violence, would serve as a wake-up call to the summiteers, that this country needs a new governance paradigm. If the conference cannot produce that, then the over N7 billion invested in it would amount to another colossal waste of our scarce national resources.
