25yr old Nigeria man creates Holy Bible in Yoruba, Hausa, Igbo and Pidgin version for Mobile Phones

Image
On the streets of Lagos and across God-fearing southern Nigeria, it’s not uncommon to see people with a leather-bound Bible in one hand and a mobile phone in the other. But the Good Book’s days could be numbered — in printed form at least — if 25-year-old Kayode Sowole’s idea takes off.

Psquare about to split (95% certainty) Read the details!!!

Image
Yesterday I reported about the friction going on between the Okoye brothers. I didn't say they'd split, I only asked a question based on all the things I've been hearing and Jude Okoye's tweet. When asked yesterday, P-Square's publicist, Bayo Adetu, said the report is 'baseless and untrue'. Unfortunately, it is not! It's either Bayo is clueless as to what is happening in the Okoye household at the moment or he thinks the best thing to do for now is to deny that there's anything going on. I wrote that the twin brothers Peter and Paul engaged in physical combat on Wednesday. If this was false, Peter is a social media person, he would have immediately denied it. He didn't! Unfortunately P-Square fans, things are even worse than I reported yesterday. According to my findings, Peter Okoye wants out of P-Square and they have even gone as far as inviting a lawyer to divide their fortune. Continue... Now, let me make this clear. This report is based on w

Check out the Nasty messages Wizkid sent to his Ex Manager before firing him

Image
It's no longer news that Wizkid has gone rogue , he's out of control when it comes to handling his professional career, booking shows without his label and his management, refusing to take advice and honor agreements with them, refusing to give them their share of the proceeds, and basically carrying on like he's the only one who has invested time and effort in his career, are just some of the behaviors being exhibited by this artist who is unarguably in his prime. Things however came to a head yesterday when it was announced that he had fired his manager of two years, Godwin Tom. 9jaLife can authoritatively reveal why Godwin was fired and how. A highly reliable source close to both parties tells us the reason why the artiste and manager parted ways on such a sour note is because of MONEY! Our sources tell us that Wizkid allegedly did not want to pay Godwin what he owed. As his manager, Godwin is entitled to a percentage of any of his artiste's ea

Young and talented Nigerian Singer, Modupe Oreoluwa Oyeyemi Ola, popularly known as Mo'Cheddah in a recent interview with Punch Nigeria, spoke about her new hair brand and style for her latest song and the concept behind it. "It does not have a name, but my stylist says people call it the Mo'Cheddah hairstyle. She says anytime anybody comes to her salon to make this style, they just say they want the Mo'Cheddah hairstyle". Mo'Cheddah said, when she was asked about the name of her hairdo which seems unusual. The singer went on to explain the concept behind it saying; "It does not hide my face.

Psquare on the verge of break up

Image
I've been hearing a few stories about Peter and Paul Okoye of P-Square having issues for a while now. I hear they disagree on everything now...songs, videos, ideas etc...but because they are twin brothers, I figured well, they will sort things out...so I didn't write. On Wednesday April 16th, I gathered exclusively from industry sources that the brothers fought each other physically during rehearsals. They had to be separated by their dancers. This is fact! But I decided to leave the story alone because which sibling doesn't disagree sometimes, right? But now their older brother, Jude Okoye, who is also their manager, just tweeted that after ten years he's done. I hear one of the wives is causing some of the problems between the brothers.
