Nigerian footballer, Emmanuel Emenike In Land Dispute With The Enugu State Government

Nigerian footballer, Emmanuel Emenike, is not happy with his state's government. This is because, the Enugu state government has seized his over 13 plots of land worth N30 million, which he bought to build a sports academy.

According to a reliable source, soldiers have invaded the property and have prevented any work on it, a development that hasn’t gone down well with the footballer. Emenike revealed that he bought the 13 plots of land after the World Cup in Brazil through a special assistant to the Enugu State Governor, Frank Ugwunweze, who handed all documents concerning the land to him.

Hear him:

“I worked hard to make my money, I
know what I pass through on the
pitch before I earn my living and it
will be unfair if what am hearing
about my land in Enugu State was
true.

I visit Enugu whenever I come to
Nigeria, my friends stay there as well as some of my family members. And I am the kind of person who allows for advise. Even before now, I had a dream to own an academy not only in Nigeria but I believe in the saying that “charity begins at home”.

About three, four months ago, I acquired 13 plots of land in Enugu State through the special assistant to Governor Sullivan Chime. And during the time of conversation of the land papers he never told me there was any problem on the land. He gave me all the necessary documents in my name after payment. I then directed for work to commence immediately, but the state government has directed soldiers to stop anybody from working there. I don’t want to believe that this is fraud. I am ready to fight it all. I am not a politician and I see no reason why my money will be held by the government house. I have called some top government officials in Enugu, but all of them are not trying to be sincere. They could not help because the order came from the Governor. Nobody is trying to be sincere and as a matter of fact, I want my money back. I am very

depressed that there is no confidence in investing in my country. I just don’t understand the pranks.

Right from time, I don’t like going through government for anything. I prefer to do it with my money and I see no reason why my property will be held back by government. People go to government to get free land, but I will not do that because there is no sincerity in most of the things we do. And I will not be here and somebody takes my money, it will never happen. I just want to believe that His Excellency Governor Chime was not aware of the purchase of the land, in that case, I will like to have my money back.”

Food security in West Africa Is Threatened By Ebola - FAO

The world's worst Ebola epidemic has put harvests at risk and sent food prices soaring in West Africa, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) said on Tuesday, warning the problem would intensify in coming months.

The FAO issued a special alert for Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, the three countries most affected by the outbreak, which has killed around 1,550 people since the virus was detected in the remote jungles of southeastern Guinea in March.

Restrictions on people's movements and the establishment of quarantine zones to contain the spread of the hemorrhagic fever has led to panic buying, food shortages and price hikes in countries ill-prepared to absorb the shock.

Popular Nollywood star, Shan George At War With Son’s London- based Music Promoters

There is Serious feud between popular Nollywood star, Shan George and the London- based music promotion outfit incharge of his son, Jaga Babylynn Promotions, over the release of Jaga’s new single titled, Edo Boy.

According to what we observed,  the young man is surprised that his mother and his promotion company are fighting over his song. He expressed his feeling in a chat with Tribune.

“I am doing good music, the two ladies, my mom and promoter should be dancing instead of fighting.” He said.

It is purported that the fight started when Shan accused the promotion company of releasing the new single without her knowledge as the boy’s Manager.  

However, the company gave their  reason for not bringing her into the picture before the said song was released.

“The song wasn’t given to the artiste’s (Jaga) manager before release because When we released Jaga’s other song ‘Mboro’ two months ago, Shan George gave out the song to too many people before release date, and that affected the monitoring and the progress on the song out there. That is the reason our company decided not to give out the song to anyone before release date.” They said.

Exclusive: Why Wizkid Won’t Forgive Davido

Just like football stars, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, the rivalry and comparison between Nigerian pop stars, Wizkid and Davido will probably continue for a long time for different reasons.

The equally and hugely talented music stars are both successful, thus, it may be a herculean task choosing one over the other.

Since the Wizkid/Davido war began , it might not be wrong to say Wizkid seems to be enjoying the buzz the rivalry is creating for his brand, as he seems uninterested in ending the rivalry.

Reasons as given by few personalities NET spoke to include Wizkid’s demand for respect from his erstwhile friend, Davido, and a proper apology from the 21 year old, who allegedly connected with several entertainers as a result of his association with Wizkid years ago.

Keen followers of the events that have occurred between Wizkid and Davido recently may wonder what explanation can be given to Wizkid’s tweets, which allegedly insulted Davido.

Shortly before the hostilities began some weeks ago, sources divulged that Wizkid, Davido and other artistes such as Flavour , KCEE , Harrysong and popular hypeman Special Ed had a good time at the airport before embarking on a trip to New York.

However, it took many by surprise when the two kicked off Twitter rants and throwing what had been described as ‘shade’ at each other without calling out any names.

Another reason why it might become
almost impossible for Wizkid to forgive Davido might be an alleged act of betrayal that Wizkid felt during the D’Banj and Don Jazzy breakup.

‘Wizkid felt betrayed by Davido that he pitched his tent with D’Banj and couldn’t believe his friend could leave their much older friend, Wande Coal, who at that pitched his tent with Don Jazzy,’ a close source told Nigerian Entertainment Today.

It has been noted that since the two began hostilities towards each other, Wizkid has not posted an apology tweet to his fans, while Davido is always quick to apologize after several minutes of Twitter rants.

In their last exchange while both were in New York, Davido was quick to tweet about forgetting the entire exchange of words as he intends to continue his music, but rather than remain silent or tweet an apology to fans, Wizkid threw another shot at the 21 year old singer.

Meanwhile, it is being peddled about that the tweet fights and hostilities might have not degenerated to this level if Davido had not left a bad taste in Wizkid’s mouth after allegedly abandoning him at a night club, which he invited him to three years back.

Before the two became rivals, allegations were rife that Davido and his HKN crew had allegedly invited Wizkid to the club only to abandon him to pay the bills and find his way home himself.

Even as older colleagues tried to wade into the rivalry, KCee in a chat with Nigerian Entertainment Today said the beef was needed to keep the industry booming.

In his words, ‘I really don’t know what to say about it or where its coming from. It happens, even in America you need stunts like this to keep the industry burning, so I don’t think it’s a big deal, because on the long run they’ll eventually make peace.’

Culled from Net.

We hear the song has something to do with “Craze” and that it is a fast tempo crazy song that will make anyone dance like crazy. We also hear that the song is so crazy that members of the public are warned to be careful with the song as it is capable of making you dance till you
think you are really crazy.

Owen Gee usually described as crazy is a world famous, award winning comedian, T.V host, Music Executive, musician, UN Ambassador for Peace, writer, model and dancer who drips with talents that has made him a force to reckon with in the Nigerian entertainment scene.
