I co-authored Tunde Kelani’s Biggest Movie, But He Did Not Pay Me – Baba Wande

Baba Wande
Baba Wande
Veteran actor, Kareem Adepoju, fondly referred to as Baba Wande, in this interview with ADEMOLA OLONILUA shares some of his life experiences
How did you get involved in acting?
I started acting when I was in primary school and I began with Baba Oyin Adejobi. Back when I was in Ansarudeen School, I was part of the pupils sent to the residence of Baba Oyin Adejobi to learn how to act. Then people would gather to watch us perform after the training and whatever money we made was used to pay our Malim (Arabic teacher). We acted plays like Adam and Eve, Joseph and his Brethren,among others. That was where I developed interest in drama. My family trade is tailoring and I was also involved in it but after leaving the modern school, I joined Oyin Adejobi. After my primary school, I travelled to the East to continue my education because that was where my mother was at the time. Due to the nature of our family business, it allowed for extensive travelling. After I was done with the modern school, I came back to Osogbo where I fully joined Oyin Adejobi. Then, my father had died.

THE BATTLE FOR THE SOUL OF LAGOS "Many Politicians Have Sworn to Teach Tinubu a Lesson" - PENDULUM BY DELE MOMODU


Fellow Nigerians, there is no doubt that Lagos is the most important State in our dearly beloved country. Once upon a time, it was our Federal capital before Abuja was carved out in what was supposed to be the centre of Nigeria. The idea for Abuja was not entirely new or original. I was told during a visit to Australia about six years ago, that the master-plan emanated from Canberra, the seat of government in that country. I used to think Sydney was the Capital, or even Melbourne. But I was kindly educated by the then Nigerian High 

Democracy In Danger; The Political Indecency In Ekiti

Ekiti-State-House-of-Assembly--

THE theatre of political absurdity which Ekiti State is fast turning to is highly despicable and should be condemned by every peace-loving Nigerian. Suddenly, democracy in the state has assumed a dangerous object of derision by stakeholders, no thanks to those politicians who decided to pervert legality and constitutionality in the quest for power. Having been directly accused of masterminding the crisis – and unless he can show otherwise through concrete means – it will be difficult for Governor Ayo Fayose to stand blameless in the ensuing breach of constitutional order.

I Regret Not Having Yoruba As Speaker – Jonathan

President Goodluck Jonathan on Friday publicly lamented that he was unable to make a Yoruba politician the Speaker of the House of Representatives after 2011 general elections because of the selfish agenda of some Yoruba leaders.
Jonathan
Jonathan
He spoke at the Yoruba Unity Summit with the theme: “National Development: Wither the Yoruba,” which held at the Oduduwa Hall of the Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife.
Jonathan who was the special guest of honour at the event organised by the Yoruba Unity Forum, said he recognised the Southwest as a key player in the country and was still haunted by that unfortunate incident in 2011 when his desire to repay the Yoruba for their support for him was lost.
Mulikat Akande had then vied to be Speaker of the House of Representatives but lost to Aminu Tambuwal of the Northwest because of inadequate support from her Southwestern colleagues.

Ghanaian Woman With Cocaine Busted At Heathrow


60407856

A Ghanaian woman has been arrested by security operatives at the Heathrow Airport in London, carrying what is believed to be one of the largest consignments of cocaine ever impounded at Heathrow.

She was alleged to be carrying a Ghanaian diplomatic passport at the time of her arrest.

Officials have given her name as Ruby Adu Gyamfi, who was reportedly carrying cocaine weighing 12.5kg, estimated at about 3.5 million pounds or $5 million.

Madam Ruby Adu Gyamfi, who is said to be very popular among Ghana’s current political establishment, is popularly known as ‘Angel’.

Sources say some officials believed to be staff of the Ghana High Commission were at the airport to welcome her but could not reach her as she was intercepted before the final immigration point.

‘Angel’ went through screening procedures at the Kotoka International Airport without any problems but was busted in London, after airport security officials ignored the usual courtesies accorded holders of diplomatic passports, isolated her and conducted a thorough search which revealed the white substance in her hand luggage.

5 Reasons You Should Have Sex With Your Husband Every Night



I was getting a manicure the first time I learned that not all wives want to, ahem, go for a roll in the hay with their husbands. I was 16 and had picked out orange nail polish(oh, sixteen). I had a book with me but it wasn't long before I found another source of entertainment. In-between buffings and polishings, the two women next to me talked about how much their husbands wanted IT and how little they wanted to give IT.
For a girl that had not even been asked out on a date this was a whole new world. I had a suspicion that their experience was more realistic than the articles I sneaky read inCosmo while getting my hair done at the salon. (I am supposed to put my hand WHERE? while simultaneously doing WHAT?) So I kept my eyes on my book, let the words blur into lines and listened closely.
"Doesn't he know how tired I am by the end of the day? As if after the kids are finally asleep I have the energy to do anything but sit down and watch some TV."

Undercover Investigation Exposes Fake Doctors In Nigeria (Video)

Two journalists go undercover to delve into the disturbing world of West Africa's quack doctors.

Take a drive though any city or large town in Nigeria and the chances are you will come across numerousprivately owned health clinics, doctor's surgeries and hospitals.
They are so widespread because Nigeria's state-run health system – ranked at 197th out of 200 by the World Health Organisation – is chronically underfunded and so overstretched that it simply cannot meet all the demands made on it. Private medicine fills the gap and in the best cases, at least for those who can afford it, it can provide a valuable alternative service.
