My Week!

It's 10:30 am Saturday morning and I just got back home from...a job!

Provided 20 models for an end of the year party last night...

I have people who run that part of my business, so I usually don't go with the models, but the organisers insisted I come along...

They got my attention when they offered accommodation at a five star hotel after the event

Haven't slept on any bed except mine in the last six months or so...it was refreshing to lie on a soft, nice bed!

This week has been crazy and exciting for me!

Was at the Future Award nominees party on Wednesday.

Felt so proud to receive my certificate from the organisers

Met a few people who have been looking forward to meeting me

I was humbled

Saw D Banj there

Waved at him...he waved back!

He came to my office one day 2 years ago to meet with Denrele Edun

Denrele wanted to introduce us...I told him another time. I was too in a hurry to go some place else!

Now I feel honored just to be in the same room with him.

I also felt honored to be in the same room with Fela Durotoye.

And everyone else who was at the future award nomination party

Except...Jedi the comedian.

I find him very annoying!

Maybe I shouldn't have said that

But I really find him annoying!

I was supposed to co-ordinate Collectibles fashion show for the Dynamix Awards.

Selected some models, did a little bit of grooming but had to pull out of that 'cos their schedule was clashing with so many of my appointments.

My apologies to them

Reluctantly met a client at GRA on Thursday...

They wanted models, I sent my guys, they sent them back!

Insisting on meeting the owner of the agency

Finally went there on Thursday...and met someone who likes the idea of Top Model Search!

He wanted the proposal ASAP. I had one in the car

Thank God I went!

I think I might be hearing good news on that soon!

I spoke to Oluchi Onweagba Luca on Thursday morning...on the radio

Cool Fm called me and asked me to speak with her on air

Asked her about her newly established modeling agency

She sure is excited about it

I've had a few conversations with Oluchi in the past

She and I went to the same lesson for our SSCE in 1997

We were in the same class for about 3 months

My immediate younger sister was in the same school with her (Surulere Girls Secondary School)

A few times she told me Oluchi said to say hi

We met again 7 years later at MBGN

She didn't remember me

Oh well...

To other things...

I'm a little horny! I saw a very sexy romantic movie last night and I can't seem to get sex out of my head.

But I can wait! Not till I get married o!

Maybe until I fall in love again

I want to fall in love again

Maybe I'm a little in love with someone

I hope I don't convince myself I'm in love just to get laid

Why am I talking about sex?

Oh yes...the movie last night!

To other exciting news.

This is the period we do a lot of ushering jobs.

My models are booked every weekend and some week days from now till early January.

They're ushering at a wedding today. I think the models are already at the venue

I hope so...will have to check on that!

I wish I could buy a new car...

But then I need to save almost a million or more to print FM&B in January!

So the car can wait

Was at Silverbird TV yesterday.

Met a guy I couldn't get to do anything for me

That's new!

I did all the leg work while he sat in his office waiting for the tapes

Was a little pissed

Where did my charm go?

Hiss!

The best part of it all was watching my magazine TV promo on STV this morning!

Yes, Yes, YES! My Mag TV promo ran on Silverbird TV last night and this morning and it will run for the next couple of weeks.

Anyone seen it?

The Murray-Bruces are giving me all the support they can.

Kisses to them. Especially Guy Murray Bruce!

I want to upload the TV promo on this blog so y'all can view it but I don't know how to upload videos!

Can anyone tell me how to upload videos?

I think I saw Adaure at STV yesterday...

She didn't say hi

Maybe she doesn't know me

But I sure recognised her...I think...

So why didn't I say hi?

Women!

From STV, I had another meeting at a telecom company, then I went for my ushering job!

Came back this morning, TIRED!

I'm still waiting for info on the MNET girls

And articles for the mag

There's going to be a bloggers xmas party on Dec 26th

Will get details later

Looking forward to that.

See y'all later...I'm going to bed!

Yes it's still morning...

Happy Holidays!

THE MRS. CLUB:
MRS. CLUB: Getting in is one thing, Staying in is another The Mrs. Club is the Nigerian Chic- Literature of all times! A book that has all the elements of a standard chick-lit novel: Three trendy Nigerian women, their quest to find a man to marry & their quest to stay married. A book by Ekene Onu puts a new spin on published literature for the trendy sophisticated Nigerian Woman. According to the New York Times: "From Mumbai to Milan, Gdansk to Jakarta, regional Varieties of Chick Lit have been sprouting, buoyed by the demographic that's both their subject and readership: 20 and 30 something years old women with full time jobs, discretionary income and a hunger for independence and Glamour." With the rise of Modern Day Chick Literature, Ekene has put Nigeria on the map with this well written book. Ekene Onu is a thirty something writer who was raised in Nigeria and currently resides in Atlanta Georgia. She is the founder and editor of Noveau Africana and the Mrs. Club is her first book.

The power of this book is Ekene Onu's characters (Titi, Amaka and Mina) and the fact that every Nigerian Woman can relate to their experiences on the quest to find that true man or the quest to tame that Naija man. Another strength Ekene has pulled from is her writing style, which pulls its reader into the book and thus making you feel that you are indeed part of the Mrs. Club!

The Mrs. Club is a must read and will be available in stores across Lagos, the UK, the USofA & Canada in February of 2008. An exclusive book signing will be held in Lagos in the second week of January and some advanced copy of this well-written book will be made available at the event.

THE CHARACTERS
Here are some excerpts from the book:
Titi: "My problem is I haven't quite found proper husband material and, for me, husband material means not just good looks, but also money and prestige. And when I say money I mean a lot of it. That's right, I'm not saying I'm a gold digger; but hey, a woman has to keep up or at least improve her lifestyle! Look, I don't believe in faking the funk. I am a straight-up person and there is no shame in my game; so yes, I am looking for a husband but he better be rich, African and fabulous!"

Amaka: "He was sexy, smart, and polished to perfection. He held my hands and played with my fingers. He told me that I was amazing, that he found me attractive, very sexy; he confessed that he really wanted to book a room for the night and invite me to share it with him. I said nothing because my throat had become so dry and besides, I couldn't trust myself. I knew that if he pulled me into his arms right then and there, I wouldn't have the strength to resist. I was looking at his lips as he talked; this man was beautiful. He turned me on with his words as well. I mean he made me feel like I was the only woman worth knowing. He told me that he had never had a conversation like this with anyone, and that I really got him and he felt for the first time in his life like he had made a real connection. He said he thought that he finally had a small understanding of the word soul mate."

Mina: "The truth is I don't enjoy sex with my husband. He slobbers all over me and has no idea how to please me in bed. At best it's a clumsy effort at going down and at worst it's a sweaty attempt at hitting it, while I lie there praying for him to come already. Yes, clearly, Obinna doesn't do it for me. There is no chemistry for me. So why did I marry him? Because I saw a man with potential, a man who was rough but teachable and I went for it, love be damned."

Question!

Hey people. I need some of you to come through for me.

I'm doing an article on the next edition of my mag titled 'MNET Face Of Africa Winners; Where Are They Now?

I can't seem to find anything on them on line. Apart from Oluchi, others are a mystery.

Here they are:
Oluchi ('98), Benevida Mudenge ('99), Nombulelo Madzibuko (2000), Ramatoulaye Diallo (2001), Kaone Kario (2005), Venantia Otto (2006)

Can anyone give me any kind of information on any of these women? Where they are now, what they are doing now, how successful their modeling career is or was, jobs they've done, how life has been since winning MNET etc

Also tell me where I can get pictures of them. Their websites, blogs etc

If anyone has direct contact with any of them, please let us have it, so we can interview them.

Also, if you have any kind of article for the mag, please send it to my email asap. We are almost done with the mag and page planning will start next week. So send whatever you want to this week...latest next week.

We are also looking for human interest stories. If you have any peculiar or inspiring story you want to share with others, pls send it to us! With pictures!

All those who live abroad will get the opportunity of reading the mag's next edition on line...we are already working on the website. I will let you know as soon as it's ready. But you're gonna pay o...lol!

Meanwhile, about Ernest Obi and the story surrounding him. I didn't put up that story to be vicious, nasty or anything. I just wanted a little girl's story to be heard. I'm not judging him...maybe I did...the thing is, I am very sensitive about rape. I have witnessed first hand the trauma a rape victim goes through, especially when raped by someone they trusted.

I have never been raped but I know someone who was and maybe one day if she allows me, I'll share her story with you. You can't begin to imagine what these people go through, you can't begin to understand the demons that haunt them.

We are so quick to say the victims are lying, because we don't want to believe the accused is that 'kind' of man but what if it's true? What if that girl was really violated?

The funny thing is I know Joanne personally. We did a few fashion shows back in '98/99. I don't know her well enough to say what kind of mother she is, but I know enough to say if a girl said she was raped...it's possible she was. The best case scenario will be consensual sex. And if she's 12/13years old, that's statutory rape.

Whether her mother is irresponsible or not is not the bone of contention, lets just find out if that girl was really raped, then get her the help she needs. And yes its my business...just like it's your business. Who knows who the next victim will be?

That's all I want to say!

Ok! Please send me anything you can on the MNET girls. Will really appreciate it! Cheers!

Ernest Obi Scandal!

This is the biggest scandal in Naija right now. I read about it last week but didn't post it here 'cos I wasn't sure how true it was, especially considering the enormity of the accusations leveled against the man in the middle of it all, star actor, Ernest Obi.

His 15yr old daughter step-daughter accused him of raping sleeping with her, getting her pregnant and getting her to have two abortions.

This week, his estranged wife, Joanne (Mother of the 15yr old) and Ernest granted separate interviews to Encomium Magazine (Monday 3rd-10th 2007) telling their own sides of the story.

They were interviewed by a journalist called Azuh Arinze, one of Nigeria's foremost entertainment journalist...meaning that everything he said they said...they probably did.

Read their interview...

It's so disheartening...

First is Joanne (Who is based in the UK...the interview was via phone)

One of the hottest stories in town is the allegation that your estranged husband Ernest Obi, impregnated your daughter, Vanessa, how true is it?
Joanne "It's true. A friend of mine (Titilayo Oyekola) called me that my ex-husband had sexually abused my daughter and even gotten her pregnant. I didn't believe it, moreso a child he raised, a child who knew no other man as her father but him. What happened was that at that point, Ernest had called me that my daughter ran away from from. My response was that 'you are in Nigeria, she is your daughter. You don't expect me to leave England to look for her. This is a child you raised yourself, why should she have the effontry to abscond. I didn't know that something else was happening.

I called her and she picked the call. I told her I'm your mother, whatever happened, I will stand by you, but I just want you to tell me the truth. She was crying. Her words were 'I'm not fit to live'.I just don't want to live. I want to commit suicide. I said 'you cannot do that to me. There is nothing we cannot handle together. I calmed her down and she told me exactly what happened. She said she made him coffee that morning, he gave her some to drink, after drinking halfway, she said she discovered she was feeling a bit dizzy and dozed off. And Ernest forced his way into her"

Was it a one off thing or did she tell you about other that he took advantage of her?
J "She said mummy I cannot count how many times. I asked where I was the first time it happened and she said 'I was in the hospital ' (At that time I was in Nigeria). I said how long did it continue? She said it went on and on until she took ill. When she took it, she started going to the hospital, finally, she discovered she was pregnant."

Did your daughter tell you the hospital Ernest took her to, or the hospital she went on her own?
J "She said she went with a girl called Chioma. Ernest knows this girl"

Where's your daughter now?
J "Right now, she is in Lagos. She just came back from Ogun State because I told her to go there. She hasn't been to school, I didn't know Ernest was not paying her school fees anymore. So, I sent her to Ogun State."

Don't you think that you didnt handle the matter well when you got the complaint that your estranged husband was allegedly violating your daughter?
J "I blame myself for everything that happened. Oh my God! My intention was to come to Nigeria and unravel the whole thing. My plan was to come to Nigeria and hound him behind bars. If it were in England, he would suffer. I failed in my duty to protect my child because I didn't believe her father would violate her."

How long were you married to Ernest?
J "officially we were married for ten years. And we have two children together. I have two other kids from another man, Vanessa and Emmanuel"

How long ago did you leave his house?
J "I left Nigeria on November 6, 2004"

How is your daughter handling the situation, considering that it has become a public issue now?
J "A lot of stress. All through yesterday, she was crying, I was crying. I cried because it will not go out of her for the rest of her life"

When was the last time you spoke to Ernest?
J "That was this week (Last week). He said there was a publication in Encomium on front page. He said you guys wrote that he impregnated Vanessa twice and aborted the pregnancy. He called me again yesterday and said he had lost a contract of N36m. He said he just won Chairmanship of AGN, that he wanted to go ahead and resign, that Vanessa said he raped her constantly. I said yes, Vanessa said so!"

What about Vanessa's father?
J "I didn't have the nerve to tell him. He lives in Lagos. He is aged"

When you confronted Ernest about this allegation, was he remorseful?
J " He was not remorseful"

When did Vanessa tell you that Ernest had been violating her?
J "It was in November last year. From what I understand, she ran away from home last year

You knew about this since last year, how come the press is just getting to know about the story now?
J "First of all, I was too embarrassed. Too ashamed of what happened. I didn't know what to do?

When you were in Nigeria, did you at any time suspect them?
J "No, I never. There was no sign of anything at all"

Considering the situation of things now, are you making plans to come to Nigeria to see one or two things you can do to remedy the situation.
J "Three times I had tried to come to Nigeria, once in February, July and last in October but I had a lot of problem. Actually because of my kids here. The social services wanted to know who my kids are going to be with."

You said your daughter told you she will commit suicide, don't you think it would be nice to come back as early as possible so that she can stop thinking about that drastic step?
J "Yes, I actually told somebody that if it means moving back to Nigeria, I will do it. I will do it (Starts crying).

End of Joanne's interview.

Let's move to Ernest reaction to the whole thing

According to Encomium...
On Saturday Dec 1, 2007, the star actor kept his words by coming to our office. And he was here for over three hours, explaining why he couldn't have slept with a girl he calls his daughter. Ernest Obi, at a point, broke down and cried. And this much he said

Ernest Obi "I will start first and foremost by saying that whatever they told you, go ahead and print it. Do not remove a word from whatever they said. I do not want to join issues with them. I just want you to realise something. The same man she's painting as being evil, who she said raped or slept with Vanessa severally is the same man she went to when she has nowhere to go. When nobody wanted to accommodate her, I took her in with two kids who are not mine. I took them in, trained them in school, I even trained the boy in University in my house, even after Joanne left.
She left me and we knew it was over. So whatever story she tells, well, that's too bad. And they still were in my house for two years after she left. Does that not tell her anything? Because there was nowhere else for them to go. If it makes her happy to to say things like this, I say more grease to her elbow.
But if I was Joanne, and heard that my daughter was raped, I will come back home and lock that person up. That is what I expected she should have done. That is why I said she is the lovely mother that she is. Joanne, pls come home, com and find out the fact; find out the hospital where the D&C was done. Where I took her for abortion, bring your witnesses, arrest me, and I will not argue with you. I will not say anything evil about you.
I'm the new AGN (Actor's Guild of Nigeria) Chairman in Lagos. There is nothing anybody can do about that. I have reported this to my guild, national and state and I'm sure they believe in me as I believe in myself. whatever anybody says that is their business. I'm saying this out of respect for this magazine, for calling me to hear my own side of the story. And I'm happy it is all out. I didn't want to say anything before because there are children involved, but now it is obvious it does not matter. She can go on, keep the shame factor on. I'm okay. God bless you"

The End!

I have only three things to say...
1. If I was accused of raping a 12/13 year old girl, and I'm innocent...this is not the kind of things I will say when I grant an interview. I won't take it so calmly. If I never touched that girl, heads will roll. When I say heads, I mean heads. I will get everyone who mentioned my name arrested, hospitals, doctors, tests, the alleged witnesses, friends, associates, extended families will be picked up. Everything and everyone will be exposed and the issue sorted out with the police and I will not rest until the truth is uncovered, because being accused of raping a child is so deep, so treacherous, so offensive, that I will probably have nightmares for the rest of my life if I'm innocent...not to talk of defamation of character...the stain stays with you forever.

If that's all Ernest had to say...then I wonder!

2. Only an insane person will accuse her step father of raping her if he didn't...
So she's either deeply insane or she's telling the truth.

3. Apart from Ernest and Vanessa, there's someone else who knows the truth and that's God. May he prevail in this matter...for that child's sake, may he prevail!

What do you guys think?

Fun Friday!

Top Selling Naija Artistes + Naija Entertainment News

Top Selling Naija Artises...according to Encomium Mag

P-Square. The fact that they are the highest selling hip hop acts at the moment is a fact. Less than seven days after they released their album, Game Over, they have sold over a million copies.

Olu Maintain
He actually struggled for two years before he could make a hit. The Audio of his CD sold out.

Faze
A lot of people didn't think he could come this far. But his Sophomore album, Independent, with the hit Kolomental has been a huge success.

Timaya
He is actually an up coming artiste but his album has been recording remarkable sales.

2face and D banj
Both of them do not have new albums but they still remain at the top. They're both getting ready to begin work on their collabo album which lots of people believe will be a commercial hit.

New Nigerian Movies to go buy/watch
1. Women At Large
Franca Brown
2. Pride Of A Woman
Charles Inojie
3. Family Disgrace
Uzee Madubogwu
4. Endless Tears
Michael Jaja
5. Gods of No Mercy
Kalu Anya

Rave of the moment, Mr Olu Maintain has given up his dream of joining the movie industry. Before he hit it big this year in his music, Olu was said to be collecting scripts from directors and film makers...he's gladly returned the scripts.


Gospel singer, Kenny Saint Brown, has been honoured for her contribution to the development of gospel music in Nigeria. She was honored at the Focused Women Award (FOWEM) held in Lagos on November, 28th, 2007.
Congrats to her!

Amerie, Ying Yang Twins, Lil Wayne and Wayne Wonder will be in the country to perform in a concert at This day events centre on the 15th of December 2007. Look out for that!

Abundantly gifted comedian, Julius Agwu, will on Sunday December 16th 2007, present his very popular 'Crack ya ribs' at the Muson Centre. Look out for that.

The real gossip sha is his rumoured engagement and wedding plans. They say he is planning to walk down the aisle with Miss Ibiere Maclayton, a 25yr old graduate of Petrochemical Engineering at the Rivers State University of Science and Technology. They say the date for the wedding is April 2008 in Port Harcourt. They say the lovers have already had a traditional marriage rites. The wife to be in presently in the UK for her master's degree programme in Oil and Gas engineering.
Congrats to Julius!

Our local gossip mags say singer Faze is sorta in trouble with some SA models. They say he's owing them for some videos they shot for him and didn't get complete payment. Hmmm...I'm sure he'll settle them when he can.

Few days ago, showbiz couple, Tunde and Wunmi Obe shot the video of the song tribute to 2J, dedicated to late Jaiye Aboderin. Out of the three rappers featured Modenine, Ruggedman and Freestyle, it was only Freestyle that failed to come for the video shoot. Nobody knows why he didn't show up. The Obes are pissed!

US based Nigerian born singer, Seyi Sodimu, recently recorded a collabo with sensational singer, Wayne Wonder. The single is titled Sophisticated lady and has been enjoying tremendous airplay.

Dbanj has signed a multi million naira partnership deal with Virgin Colours soft drink. The deal will include sponsorship of his 2008 projects and his official MTV parties in 6 cities, which include Lagos, Ghana, SA, PH and London. Ain't some people so blessed? Good luck to the Koko Master.

Rascal Flatts My Wish
I hope that days come easy and moments pass slow,
And each road leads you where you want to go,
And if you're faced with a choice, and you have to choose,
I hope you choose the one that means the most to you.
And if one door opens to another door closed,
I hope you keep on walking' till you find the window,
If it's cold outside, show the world the warmth of your smile,

More than anything, more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more then you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to, I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,

Yeah, this, is my wish.
I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you left,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,

Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And you always give more then you take.
Oh More then anything, Yeah, and more than anything,
My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it,
To your dreams stay big, and your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more then you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you, and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

Cheers!

I'm going back to the studio. Will let y'all see the new pictures when it's ready.

Meanwhile, I got this email from someone

Read and let her know what you think

Dear Linda
Great thing you are doing with your blog. Well done
Want to sort your opinion. Have a friend who I met on the Internet and I like and he likes me as well. We have been friends for the past 7 months, exchanging emails, phone calls, chatting et al. He's asking me to come over to his country, Poland, for our first meeting. Quite skeptical about it coz the idea is great but I'm scared, going to a strange land to see a stranger. Would you advise I go? Please ask your fellow bloggers.
Thank you.

My advise to her was NO. I gave her my reasons...I think he should come here first...with all the things happening around, one can't be too careful.

But what do you think?

Please let her know.
