News: 2 Nigerian Cities Bomb By Boko Haram

Two Nigerian cities rocked with bomb explosions Monday, believed to be the handiwork of militants of the Boko Haram sect.
At least four persons were injured in one of the explosions, police and residents said.
The explosions occurred in Kano, the largest city in northern Nigeria, and Maiduguri, the northeastern city at the heart of Boko Haram’s insurgency.
A blast outside a mosque near Kano’s main textile market went off around 8:30 am in an area where traffic police were stationed, residents said. The area was later cordoned off by troops and policemen, according to an AFP reporter.
Police said the blast was caused by a “time-bomb” and left three traffic police and a passerby wounded.
“There was an explosion around the Kantin Kwari market targeting some traffic personnel,” police spokesman Magaji Majia said.
“Four people were injured. They included a federal road safety personnel, a Hisbah personnel and a state traffic warden as well as a passerby.”
The Hisbah are the local sharia police.

Tonto Dike and Terry G duet on upcoming single: Get ready for madness.

It’s no joke – the Poko queen and Akpako master have finally hooked up, be ready for the madness…

The two controversial entertainers – actress Tonto Dike and pop singer-producer Terry G on November 29, 2012 confirmed on social networking site Twitter that they have recorded a collabo.

Ms Dike had hinted at the collabo a few weeks back while on air, in interview with Cool FM’s Freeze and Kaylah. Her dreams have finally come to reality.

We are told the song which still remains untitled for now was recorded at Terry G’s TPG Studios in Iju, Lagos.

Tonto Dike received wide criticism when she released her first two singles ‘Get Hi’ and ‘Itz over’ in October with veteran movie producer Charles Novia dedicating his time to pen a 400 word article just to show his displeasure. Parody videos and pictures were created just to mock her singing and style of music

Tonto however seems to be unfazed with the bashing and is even more determined to make a strong statement with her music.

Entertainment: My First Marriage Crashed By My Mother-In-Law Says Mercy Aigbe

Mercy Aigbe needs no formal introduction as one of the most-sought- after actresses in Nollywood. She’s one of the top rated actresses who has paid her dues in the industry. In this interview with Showtime Celebrity,  Mercy opens up on many issues, including her marriage to her ex-husband, her recent marriage, career, challenges and others. Excerpt: What’s been happening?
I have been busy working and some of my movies have been released in the market.  I just completed my most recent movie titled, Suru Lere(Patience Has Gain). I  also traveled to shoot the concluding part of my movie, Osas, and by December, we’re going to round everything up.
You started as an actress and now, you’re a producer, how has it been?
It hasn’t been easy because it involves more responsibilities.  As an established actress and now a producer, you want to give what people will see and respect. Producing movies that are not up to standard will affect the way people look at me. So, it’s double work because I also play lead roles in my movies.
How  much do you spend producing a movie?
Like I said, as a producer, I love to give out my best on a project. But with the kind of environment  we have here, one of my challenges is piracy. Sometimes, when you have a project and you’re to spend like N10m, you’ll always want to cut cost because you’re not sure pirates will allow you recoup your money. But at the same time, because of my status and the kind of person I am, I always want to do what I want to do.
You being a Benin woman, why did you choose to act in Yoruba movies?
I’ll say it’s providence because it’s not by choice. I didn’t know I would be more prominent in the Yoruba movie genre. But  I’m a professional- I studied Theater Arts at the University of Lagos. So maybe this is where God wants me to be for now.
Actually, I started off acting in soaps. I did a couple of soaps before going into Yoruba movies. And it was after I featured in few Yoruba movies that I started getting more scripts from Yoruba movie producers. It’s not as if I don’t get called up by non-Yoruba movie producers and it’s not as if I don’t want to diversify to feature in English movies or even produce mine, but for now, I’m okay with where I am .

You’re so fluent in Yoruba. Did you grow up in the West?

About Nigerian Gays

One after the other, Nigerians who indulged in homosexuality with impunity narrate how they eventually opted for this illicit romantic escapade CHARLES ADINGUPU writes that as the government tries to clip their wings, they hid under veil of fundamental human right.
James Onuoha (real names withheld) a banker, is a product of both Western  influences and the traditional cultures of Nigeria. Academically, he’s a Western, having acquired his first and second degrees in financial management in an American university at his prime. But emotionally, he is swayed by age old superstition and the traditions of his people.
When the time comes for him to get married, James bowed to family pressures, and chooses a girl from among his own Ibos, leaving his mistress of many years behind in Lagos. But the lucky bride, Obiagali, whom he finally chooses, is tied to the apron string of the primitive curse of the village gods. Undeterred by this chilling discovery, James, together with his wife to be, agreed to go through a curious and sinister ritual to secure her release so that they can marry. Ironically, at the climax of the purification exercise to extricate Obiagali from the grip of the village gods, she died in a mysterious circumstance.
