1. Maheeda’s unclad gallery on InstagramCaroline ‘Maheeda’
Sam made sexy look stupid in 2013 with her constant unclad ‘selfies’ on
Instagram. We guess she was trying to impress us but the Pop
singer-turned-Gospel act just looked real thirsty for fame. Then she
went on to claim she was just trying to make young women feel more aware
of their bodies. We’ll just call that the ‘Gospel according to
Maheeda‘.
2. Tonto DikeWe
don’t know why Tonto Dike irritates many; maybe it’s her croaking voice
on those songs she released this year, her queer Twitter vocab, the way
she flaunts the use of illegal drugs or the absolute ‘I-don’t-give-a
f@ck-what-you-think-about-me’ attitude she goes about with.
3. Beverly OsuNigerians expressed disgust and disappointment
when thier representative to the last Big Brother Africa reality show,
Beverly Osu had sex in the house. Until her, no Nigerian housemate had
been that physical in the house.
4. Oga at the Top (Shem Obafaiye)
The (former) Lagos State Commandant of the Nigeria Security and Civil
Defense Corps (NSCDC) Shem Obafaiye subjected himself and his
organization to global ridicule when he could not mention the
organization’s official website during a heated live Channels interview.
5. Adams Oshiomole’s ‘Go and die’ statementThe Edo State
Governor received serious backlash on social media after outrightly
telling a widow to ‘Go and die‘ for selling her goods on the roadside
during sanitation in Benin. No amount of money or cups of tea can wipe
that silly remark from memories of his rule.
6.OPEN LETTERSWhen former president Olusegun Obasanjo wrote
president Goodluck Jonathan blaming him for the woes of the country, he
wasn’t prepared for another counter letter allegedly written by his
daughter Iyabo criticizing him too. Copies of these controversial
letters somehow found their way to the streets of Abuja where they were
being sold. Have you finished reading the one from GEJ?
7. Impromptu concerts at celebrity weddingsWhile we were glad
to see our favourite celebs get married this year, we wonder why the
ceremonies became impromptu concerts. Why for example was Phyno allowed
to perform
‘Ghost mode‘ at
Peter Okoye‘s wedding? WHY?!
8. Funke Akindele’s marriage collapseFunke Akindele’s
marriage to Almaroof Oloyede, a hitherto married man ended abruptly
after a little over a year owing to cases of infidelity and
irreconcilable difference. And the accusations and counter-accusations
that followed were messy, to put it mildly.
9. Stella Oduah’s bullet proof vehiclesOur dear Minister of
Aviation Stella Oduah ordered for two BMW bulletproof cars worth N255M
#LikeaBoss and got the whole country upset. Inconsiderate as that was,
we still have to give her props for not busting a sweat under her lace
wig.
10 Sam SodjeThe ex-Super Eagles footballer in December
claimed he got paid £70,000 just to get sent off in a February 2013
match. Arrested already, he’ll be getting more than a red card if this
matter gets to court.
11. Don Jazzy and Wande Coal petty Twitter warWho would think
almighty Don Jazzy and teddy bear-looking Wande Coal would stoop so low
as to engage themselves in a petty Twitter fight? Not us too! The pair
threw caution to the wind after the Mavin boss accused his former
protege of not giving him the right credits to his ‘Baby face’ song.
12. Losing Saka to MTN
Telecoms giant MTN snatched actor Saka from Etisalat to become its
ambassador in its mobile number portability campaign. This move was
viewed in the corporate world as a major blow to Etisalat; with great
lessons for brand managers and their agencies.
