Kemi Olunloyo-Bianca Ojukwu Aborted Fani-Kayode's Pregnancy

Ms Kemi Olunloyo, the controversial daughter of a former Governor of Oyo State, has declared her resolve to expose all the dirty secrets between Bianca Ojukwu and Femi Fani-Kayode since Bianca is saying that she never had any intimate relationship of any kind with him.

Here are Kemi's latest revelations about Fani-Kayode and Bianca:

"Nigeria's Ambassador to Spain Mrs Bianca Ojukwu lost two babies for Femi Fani Kayode during our days in UK. They planned to wed. 

"Ask their parents, some in the heavens above. At least Govenor Onoh and his wife Caroline were happy at the time. The first baby was miscarried (Act of God) and the second she #ABORTED! This is what really broke them up. Femi wanted his BABY and he left HER!

 "I will keep telling the truth as Bianca needs to STOP saying she NEVER MET him!!!"
If this Kemi Olunloyo is really telling the truth then Bianca should indeed stop denying Fani-Kayode and just pretend like nothing happened...quietly move on!

FG orders 53 gold iPhones for N682m

The Chief Executive Officer, Gold and Co., United Kingdom, Amjad Ali, has told a United Kingdom newspaper, The Independent, that the Federal Government has ordered 53 gold-plated iPhone 5S mobile handsets  from his firm as part of the memorabilia for the nation's 53rd Independence anniversary on October 1, 2013.
The gold iphones are said to worth £2.65m (about N682m).
Each of the gold-plated iPhones costs up to £50,000, said The Independent, in its report on Wednesday.
The minimum cost of basic models of iPhone in gold or rose gold is £3,000.
The 53 special phones are to be supplied by Amjad Ali, a Bristol-born owner of Gold and Co. based in Dubai.
Ali, who told The Independent that his firm was "fulfilling an order from the Nigerian government for 53 gold-plated iPhones, added, "We will engrave them with the coat of arms, a shield and two horses. "
However, he neither disclosed when he received the order for the item nor the Federal Government agency or ministry that contracted him.
Gold and Co supplies royal families, governments, and minted customers across Russia, China and the Middle East with special phones.
Some of its customers include the Saudi royal family, which, Ali said, ordered a gold iPhone studded with hundreds of diamonds, including a giant piece that serves as the device's "home" button.
He explained that before such phones were delivered, "We strip them down and then plate them in copper, nickel and then pure gold."
The company, according to him, has "limited units per region and each is numbered and placed in a handmade wooden box with a certificate of authenticity and wax seal."
The Academic Staff Union of Universities on Wednesday said the alleged plan to purchase the iPhones showed the government's insensitivity to the plight of its citizens.
The union, which spoke through its Ibadan zonal coordinator, Dr. Nassir Adesola, urged the Federal Government to first fulfil its electoral promises to the people before engaging in such an "extravagance."
He said, "It sums up the insensitivity of the Federal Government. For the administration to think of doing this at a time the Minister of Finance is saying that the FG has not enough money to run the country is unfortunate. It seems that the government has gone to sleep and not in tune with the society, it is governing.
"The Federal Government should first cater for its citizens roaming the streets, and rehabilitate its collapsed industries before spending so much for phones. Any government that engages in such a frivolity and extravagance is not serious and its people should reject it."
However, the Federal on Wednesday denied ever ordering 53 iPhones from the businessman or anybody in commemoration of the nation's 53 independence.
The Special Assistant (Media and Communication) to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr. Sam Nwaobasi, told The PUNCH that the report by the foreign newspaper was a lie.
He said, "The Federal Government has not ordered for any 53 iPhones from any businessman anywhere. That is my answer to your question; it is not true, the Federal Government did not order, is not ordering for and has not ordered for 53 iPhones from anybody or anywhere," Nwaobasi told one of our correspondents.

Bianca Ojukwu to sue femi kayode

Femi Fani Kayode responded to Bianca's lawsuit threat, insisting that he didn't lie and threatened to reveal details of his 'relationship with her. Like Bianca, he has also issued a statement threatening to sue. Read Mrs Ojukwu's statement below, issued via her personal assistant,
"The attention of Her Excellency, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu has been drawn to a statement purportedly issued by Chief Femi Fani-Kayode through one Mr Akinola Babatunde Rotimi and published in the Daily Sun and ThisDay Newspapers of September 6, 2013.The phantom claim in the said statement that Chief Femi Fani-Kayode and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu were once good friends to the knowledge of mutual friends who are still alive is not only false, baseless and typical, but a further attempt by Chief Femi Fani-Kayode to create the impression of a connection between himself and Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu.
"Whilst it is important to reiterate that Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu has never met Chief Femi Kayode and does not know him in person, it is pertinent to note that the statement issued through Mr Akinola Babatunde Rotimi, falls far short of an apology and retraction of Chief Femi Fani-Kayode's false and libelous outbursts and is merely a desperate attempt to lend credence to fabrications, which he seeks to present as reality with intent to gloss over the very serious issues arising from the reckless publication.

"In the circumstances, Ambassador Bianca Ojukwu is left with no option than to leave the matter in the hands of her lawyers."

Femi Fani Kayode's statement...
"We read the comments of the P.A. to Mrs. Bianca Ojukwu in the Sun Newspaper of 9th September and in a number of other newspapers where she expressed the view that the withdrawal of the comments made about her by Chief Femi Fani-Kayode were ''not enough''. We really do wonder what Mrs. Ojukwu really wants from Chief Fani-Kayode and what her agenda really is? Throughout this matter Chief Fani-Kayode has chosen the path of peace and has attempted to avoid an ugly and public quarrel with Bianca Ojukwu out of respect to the memory of her late father Chief C.C. Onoh and the memory of her late husband, Dim Emeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu . Consequently he has publiclly apologised to her and the two other igbo ladies that he mentioned in the said article (namely Miss Chioma Ansoh and Miss Adaobi Ucgegbu) on two separate occassions, in three separate national newspapers and online. He has has also publically withdrawn the words that they found offensive, he has edited the said article, he has ensured that no newspaper in Nigeria that published it mentioned their names in the revised version, he has admitted that the word ''intimate'' that was used in the online version of the article was ''indiscreet'' and he has bent over backwards to tread the path of peace and to appease all those concerned. Despite all these efforts Bianca Ojukwu has refused to be appeased or to let go and she has continued to peddle the shameless lie that she has never met Chief Fani-Kayode. This is sad and unfortunate and it is beyond the imagination of anyone that a serving Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Nigeria would so readily and so easily be given to telling such lies. Chief Fani-Kayode is not comfortable with publiclly joining issues with ladies when it comes to matters of a private nature such as this because he was well brought up and he is a gentleman but it is clear that Bianca Ojukwu is desperate to go to war over this issue and to cover up the truth about their past. It is also clear that she has constituted herself into the arrowhead of a group of people that are determined to use her and this whole unsavoury episode to attempt to distract attention from the wider and more important issues raised in the essay and to discredit him. Since that is the case we welcome whatever action Ojukwu wishes to take in court and we shall gladly meet her there. We will also be instigating our own legal proceedings against her in due course for her barefaced and malicious lies and her consistent claim that she has never met Chief Fani-Kayode all in an attempt to libel, defame, diminish and discredit him before the entire world. We wish to state clearly and categorically that not only did Chief Fani-Kayode know her but he also knew her far better than she cares to publiclly admit. The precise nature of that relationship will be explored and exposed in open court. It is not in the nature of Chief Fani-Kayode to fight unecessary and distractive battles over flippant matters such as this but on this occassion he has been compelled to do so simply because he will do whatever it takes to protect his integrity and establish the fact that he has told no lie. Since she has continued her shameless perfidy and wishes to tread the path of deceit and confrontation then so be it. Finally let it be clearly understood that at no point did Chief Fani-Kayode lie about the nature of his relationship with Ojukwu. However he did not feel that it was appropiate or necessary to share the details of that relationship with the public because he felt that such matters were strictly private. The fact that she mistook his mature exercise of restraint and discretion, even when provoked and insulted, his desire for peace and his gentlemanly nature for weakness is not only unfortunate but also a grave miscalculation on her part. Once again we reiterate the fact that we counsel Ojukwu to take whatever course of action she pleases and we welcome this opportunity to expose her for what she is. The matter has been referred to our lawyers for final preparation. They will prepare a vigorous defence to Ojukwu's absurd allegations and they will also determine our next line of action against her''- Mr. Tosin Emmanuel, p.a. to Chief Femi Fani-Kayode

Nigerian single Ladies Worry Over Scarcity Of husband

The recent alarm raised by the C W O that husbands would become scarce in Nigeria in 2023 may just be right as P.M.NEWS can confirm that many Nigerian spinsters are currently witnessing the no-husband syndrome.
Within the last few weeks, some of the ladies who spoke with our correspondent reported serious apprehension, pressure and a total lack of peace as the consequence of their inability to get married.
One of the ladies, who preferred to be simply called Titi said she had taken the issue of marriage as a do-or-die affair due to "internal pressure" but that as much as she had tried, frustration had often been the result.
At 37, the businesswoman who sells clothes in Ikeja, the Lagos State capital in western Nigeria, told P.M.NEWS that she is not finding life easy.
"What is happiness without a man in a woman's life?"she asked our correspondent during a chat on Badoo, a relationship site on the internet.
She had dated several men with some promising marriage, but without fulfilling the promise.
"You can't imagine that in the last three years, I have dated about eight men, but the relationship was often short-lived simply because I ask for their commitment.
"I am not getting any younger and I cry every time I see my mates with their husbands and children.
"If at 37 I don't have a child or a permanent man, when would I have them? Is it when my skin has wrinkled? she asked our correspondent.
Chioma (surname withheld), 35, has found herself patronising many of the social interaction sites on the internet.
The banker told our correspondent that she is on Eskimi, 2go, Badoo, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter as well as 4clique, a site that was launched in Nigeria days ago.
"We can't tell the particular broom in the bunch that kills a fly," she told P.M.NEWS on why she patronises such number of social interaction sites.
"I always change my name in the different sites but the ultimate goal is to get a husband," she added.
Chioma told P.M.NEWS that she is really worried about the situation, adding that she lives comfortably (in a mini-flat and has a car), "but who do I have to enjoy this comfort with me?
"I have tried a hook up programme on a Lagos-based radio station, but my age is now a major factor hindering my dream of being married," she lamented pleading with our married correspondent, who she considered a bachelor, to "help dry my tears."
A married woman, who gave her name as Mrs. Blessing Aguebor and resident in Oshodi, confirmed that the issue of lack of serious men for marriage is giving many ladies sleepless nights.
She narrated the touching story of her friend who was disappointed by her boyfriend of five years when it was time to "settle down".
"My friend was 29 when he met this man in Benin and they dated for five years. The man was always giving the lady hope without her knowing the man had other plans. The year he fixed for their marriage was the year he travelled abroad without even informing my friend.
"It was later he called her and asked her to find another man because he still had many more years to hustle. My friend almost went mad.
"She is 36 now without a man. I had to convince her to relocate to Lagos so that possibly out of the population here, she would find someone. It is pathetic," she said.
A 38-year old business woman in Ketu, Mrs. Rita Adewunmi, narrated how she lost her first husband to a friend, Idayat, who was desperate for a husband.
According to Mrs. Adewunmi who remarried last year, Idayat was 36 and needed a husband but her search was endless.
"I was always encouraging her and made her a part of my family. She would always help me take care of the kids when I go to the market.
"With time, she took over my husband without my knowledge until the day I caught them red-handed and that was the end of my marriage. Ladies are like hunters these days," she said.
Asked why she was not married at 34, Blessing Osuoha, a nurse with a private hospital in Abuja, retorted: "that is why I'm on this social site. Why are you asking? Is it a bad idea if you propose to me?"
She explained that life was becoming unbearable without a husband.
"My friends and family members are always asking when they would come and 'chop' rice, and I keep hoping," she added.
A marriage counsellor in Lagos, Mrs. Victoria Aliu, told P.M.NEWS that scarcity of 'real men' is becoming a terrible condition for women ready for marriage.
She blamed the problem partly on the Nigerian economy, confusion among the bachelors on their choices of the women they want as wives and the attitudes of the spinsters.
"Many women, whether consciously or not, behave irritably sometimes, forgetting that the man just beside them at every point in time may just have been nursing how to start a conversation that could lead to marriage.
"Some other ladies are very choosy and unserious at their early stages of adulthood. They only open their eyes to discover that their friends are all married and that they are the only ones left at the bus stop. Then it becomes a terrible case for them," she explained.

ANPP, CPC Pull out of APC Merger in Anambra State.

The All Nigeria Peoples Party (ANPP) and the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC) in Anambra State have pulled out of the All Progressive Congress (APC) merger ahead of the November 16 governorship election in the state....

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reported that the state Secretary of the defunct ANPP, Mr. Mike Igwilo, made this known to journalists in Awka yesterday, saying the party was pulling out because it was not consulted in all the activities leading to the merger and the recent primaries in the state which produced Senator Chris Ngige as the standard bearer.

"We are marginalised in the party and not carried along. For this reason, we find it difficult to explain the merger to our supporters who now move like sheep without shepherd," he said. Igwilo said ANPP would make public its next plan of action before the end of September.

At a separate news conference, the state Chairman of the CPC, Mr. Chuba Ikeagwu, told journalists that the party had joined the newly formed Peoples Democratic Movement (PDM).

He said the APC did not give a level playing ground for other merging political parties to compete for the governorship ticket in the primaries alleging that only the defunct Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) controls the party machinery in the state.
"There is no equity in the sharing of positions, ACN dominated and took everything,'' Ikeagwu alleged.

The deceased, identified as 30-year-old Sunday Igwe, took insecticide when he could not bear incessant police arrest and extortions, his suicide note revealed. In his premortal note Mr. Sunday wrote he had been hired as a commercial bus driver by a man Henry.
The note further revealed that the police arrested Mr. Sunday on several occasions over alleged traffic offences but each time he was arrested, police demanded money from him.
A driver who would not want his name to be disclosed said before the deceased ended his life on Sunday, policemen in Sabon Tasha arrested him and detained his bus. They requested for N2, 000 from him to release the bus which he paid. Another group of policemen arrested him at Taiwo road over wrong parking two hours later and demanded for N2,000.
"He could not afford the money the policemen demand and left to inform the bus owner. The owner of the bus told him not to worry as they still stand a chance to collect the bus on Monday but he proceeded to his room located at No 27 school road Nasarawa in Kaduna South Local government, wrote the shocking note and took a local liquid insecticide popularly called Ota pia-pia that led to his death."
A photocopy of the suicide note :

"Please Ozo, tell my Oga Henry to go and look out for his bus at the Police station. Tell him that am sorry for everything I have cost him let him forgive me. It is not my forth (fault). That is the way things should go. Let them look for my conductor so that they can go together to biel (bail) his bus and let them tell the police people what happened.
"After crying explend (explaining) everything to them but all their (they) need is money and I don't have it let them come and take my cops and relies (release) someone bus for him. Anyway I have nothing against them and let them read this too. Thanks you Oga Henry bye."
Kaura Abdullahi, the Chairman of Nasarawa branch, Nigeria Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW) told the newsmen that his Financial Secretary informed him on Sunday that one of their drivers was arrested by the police at Command Junction and collected N2,000 from him over wrong parking.
It has been further learnt that Mr. Sunday stayed for years without a job before he was employed as a bus driver.
His body was deposited at Dr. Gwamna Awan General Hospital and hospital officials could not speak to our correspondent but said Sunday was Brought-In-Dead (BID).
Aminu Lawan, Kaduna police spokesman, commented on this matter, told it is currently being investigated.
"From what we have gathered, he was arrested because of road obstruction and the policemen demanded him to produce his papers and drivers license which he said he will bring. He left and did not return. We have the letter they said he wrote and its only investigation that will revealed whether he was the one that wrote it," the spokesman said.
On the allegation that the police received money from him while another group demanded N2,000 Lawan said they will investigate and ensure that culprits are brought to book.

Dillish from Namibia wins Big Brother The Chase!

In what came off as a huge surprise to many fans across the continent especially to the Nigerians as Melvin and Beverly were evicted in the finale of the show as well as Cleo representing Zambia ,and Elikem
representing Ghana. Yes we're talking, Big Brother Africa The Chase finale.

It will come as shock to many viewers in West Africa who felt Melvin, Beverly & Elikem had a great shot of claiming the grand prize. Beverly had made a huge name for herself for the viewers as her steamy relationship with South Africa's Angelo gathered a lot of attention across the continent as well as hate.

However Dilish Matthews walks away with 300,000 USD as the cash prize and will undoubtedly become a household name for years to come as she is the winner of this year's Big Brother Africa.

After expressing her desires to be the first woman to win the Big Brother grand prize since Zambia's Cherise did so seven seasons ago, Dillish has done it for all of Africa's women!

The gorgeous Namibian started her Chase race as the proverbial underdog and was labeled everything from lazy to a pampered princess. As the Chase rolled on however, Dillish quickly emerged as a very strong contender for the Chase title and won her fellow Housemates and Africa over, with her quirky, accented alter ego, aptly titled Princess Dillish.

The Namibian made sure to stay away from trouble and coasted through the Chase by taking her place behind the scenes. While her fellow Housemates got themselves into hot water, fighting and gossiping their way to what they hoped was the top of the mountain, Dillish remained grounded and maintained cordial relations with her fellow Housemates.

The only time the Namibian got herself in a spot of trouble was when she and her good friend, Nigeria's Melvin, had a disagreement after she told her fellow Housemates about a relationship he was involved in, which was less than stellar. Dillish and Cleo proved to all and sundry that women are indeed a force of nature. The two hotties pipped their male counterparts, Elikem and Melvin to the Top 2 while, as well as their close friend Beverly.

Before the big news was delivered, Pebbles the fish surprised all and sundry with one last speech. "On behalf of myself and the other fish, I would like to congratulate you on your amazing feat. You are the specialest ladies in Africa," Pebbles said.

However, one thing is clear! Tonight is Dillish's night and oh whata moment it was! As soon as the Namibian was announced the winner of the Chase, the Namibian broke down in a heap of tears at the realisation that she has a cool USD 300 000 sitting in her bank account. Yes Africa. She came, she saw and she conquered. In heels even! Congratulations to Delicious Dillish!

In the final minutes, Beverly was the first to get evicted, followed by Melvin, then Elikem and to the surprise of many, Cleo and Dilish were shocked to be in the final 2. The two Nigerians received the lowest votes after an intense round of voting.

In the final moment, Cleo was announced as evicted and automatically, Dilish became the winner of the 8th edition Big Brother Africa.

Boy who hid inside ARIK aircraft wheel thought the plane was going to America

Teen stowaway, Daniel Ihekina, who was arrested at the Lagos Airport after flying in the tyre hole of an Arik plane from Benin to Lagos on Saturday morning, thought he was on a US-bound flight.

A source at the Benin Airport who disclosed this said the boy's parents had already departed for Lagos in search of the stowaway.

The airport source, who did not want his name in print said, "From what we heard, the boy said he was being maltreated and tried to escape from his parents. He thought he was on his way to the US.

"The parents have travelled to Lagos by road, to get him back."

Meanwhile, investigations conducted by one of our correspondents in Lagos revealed that the boy had been handed over to the operatives of the State Security Services for further investigation.

The General Manager, Corporate Communications, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria, Mr. Yakubu Dati, who also confirmed the development, said the aviation security personnel of the agency had handed over the young voyager to the men of the SSS for extensive investigation.

Dati said, "The residential address the boy gave to us was traced to a church in Benin by our airport manager and his team. So, there is need to hand over the teenager to the SSS who are experts in such investigations. They will carry out further investigation on the matter."

The FAAN spokesman said the nature and circumstances surrounding the crime informed the agency decision to hand over the stowaway to the SSS operatives.

Meanwhile, following the Benin Airport incident, FAAN has adopted the 'risk amelioration processes to safeguard flight operations' at all its 22 airports across  the country.

Dati stressed that the agency had tightened its risk amelioration procedure to ensure that similar incident did not occur again.

He also said the agency had prioritised the perimeter fencing of all the 22 airports in the country.

"In the meantime, we have adopted risk amelioration processes to safeguard flight operations. As a result of this incident in Benin, we have further tightened our risk amelioration procedure to ensure that a similar incident does not occur," he  said.

However, FAAN has also continued to trade blame with Arik Air over the Benin incident.

The agency, in a statement on Sunday, said it read with "great dismay the statement released by Arik Airlines about the stowaway found on board Arik's flight 544 from Benin to Lagos on Saturday 24 August, 2013."
Dati said FAAN was "unfairly indicted" while the airline took no responsibility whatsoever for such a "serious security breach."

FAAN said its preliminary investigation had revealed that Arik did not give accurate account of the Benin Airport incident.

Giving the accounts of its preliminary findings, FAAN said, "Our investigations reveal that a passenger on board the flight called the attention of the cabin crew while the aircraft was waiting to take off at the threshold of the runway, to the effect that they had seen a young boy walk under the aircraft and had not seen him re-appear on the other side."

"The cabin crew in turn informed the pilots in the cockpit about this. The pilots called the control tower and asked them to request FAAN to do a sweep of the area after their departure, opting to carry on with their flight despite the report."

"Upon the arrival of the aircraft in Lagos, we were informed that there had been a stowaway found alive alighting from the wheel well of the aircraft. While FAAN takes this security breach extremely seriously, we deem Arik's attempt at indicting and smearing FAAN as irresponsible. Safety and security breaches occur when all the checks in the system are beaten.  Given that security is a responsibility for all players in this industry, a critical last opportunity to detect and prevent this stowaway was offered and had the airline taken the information by passengers as seriously as they should have, this incident would have been avoided."

Transfer record:Real Madrid land Bale with £86 MILLION

Gareth Bale is free to join Real Madrid after Tottenham agreed a world record £86million deal with the Spanish giants on Sunday night.



Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy signed off the staggering move for the PFA Player of the Year following talks with directors in the boardroom at White Hart Lane. Bale's transfer to Real beats the previous world record of £80m which Real paid to Manchester United for Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.

Levy returned from talks in Madrid with Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett and Tottenham director of football Franco Baldini to watch his club's 1-0 victory over Swansea City after agreeing the deal.


Bale's transfer to Real beats the previous world record of £80m which the Spanish giants paid to Manchester United for Cristiano Ronaldo in 2009.

Levy returned from talks in Madrid with Bale's agent Jonathan Barnett and Tottenham director of football Franco Baldini to watch his club's 1-0 victory over Swansea City after agreeing the deal.

It is understood that the decision to travel to Madrid to meet Perez — who is known to revel in these situations — was part of a tactic designed to get the highest possible price.

The fee represents an extraordinary return on the £7m Spurs paid Southampton six years ago and will only add to Levy's reputation as the toughest negotiator in the game.

It also brings to an end one of the most protracted transfer sagas in the history of the game following a summer of talks.

"A LETTER TO MY FAKE LOVER"

Am fake! But your kisses and hugs you pretend †o be real feelings and sugar daddy, you made mє freeze.
You know what! You are fake, when cut cakes every weeks blow off candles, is today your birthday!
i mean, you wish everyday was valentine trips to London and Dubia, but that wasn't half of what mom could afford.
You call me a player! but how cheap you could fall for a cleaner; after having goodtime with my boss brother bother chief wth calls and texts,
You know what! You are one good player for real, every fine boy have a taste of you, young and sexy no need for datin;
Even when good, i never knew you could have it all HIV.
