I Once Caught An Actress With A Charm In Her Bag - Nollywood Actress Reveals
While this declaration was met with several reaction, actress Sarah Ebhota has seconded Nwadike's claims saying she had once caught a Nollywood actress with a charm hidden in her bag.
I willsay it is true that many actresses use charms to get movie roles because there’s this film ‘Juju wood’ that showed where actors and actresses use charms to get roles. And in some cases, like some locations I have been, you see the cast fighting themselves spiritually just because of a role. And I have once seen a charm in an actress’ bag at a location in Asaba. That’s what I have to say about that but as for me I strongly believe in God, he gave me the talent and He has been supporting me. God is my strength”, she said.

Evans WIll Be Arraigned Soon -IGP
Idris attributed the delay in Evans’ prosecution to police investigations to track down his accomplices within and outside the country.
Evans had raked in millions of dollars as ransoms paid to him by his victims’ families before his arrest on June 10, 2017, in one of his mansions at Magodo, Lagos State.
The IG, who spoke at a lecture which centred on proffering solutions to security challenges in Lagos, expressed worry at the rate at which the youth were venturing into kidnapping.
He reiterated the need for the establishment of special courts to ensure the speedy trial of suspected kidnappers.
Idris said, “Evans will be charged to court very soon. This is a man who has over the years been involved in kidnapping, collecting money in millions of dollars and harassing Nigerians from the various parts of the country.
“What we are doing now is to ensure that we conduct thorough investigations so that anybody involved will be brought to book.
“It seems kidnapping is becoming attractive to the youth. The more we arrest, the more they are coming up. But I believe that with special courts, this will be addressed.”
He said plans were underway to recruit more policemen to effectively pursue the principle of community policing.
APC Admits Things Are Difficult Economically
However, it said the diversification efforts of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration would be evident in a few years, saying the country would be counted as one of the industrial power houses in Africa.
National Chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, who stated this in Abuja on Thursday evening, also said the present administration was building a new economic model which he said would be sustainable, production-based and would diversify from oil to agriculture, solid minerals and other viable sectors.
Odigie-Oyegun said this at the party’s national secretariat when he received political leaders from Delta Central Senatorial District, who defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the APC. The defectors were led by a former Commissioner in the Delta State Oil Producing Area Development Commission, Chief Johnson Boro.
Other defectors who came with him were the immediate past PDP Chairman, Ughelli South Local Government Area, Chief Francis Aguonigho; Chief Sleek Oshare; Chief Isaiah Kekeje, Chief Mathew Kwode, Chief Robert Ojo, Mr. Sunny Ogbududu, Mr. David Edonor, Mr. Saturday Nukueye and Chief Charles Otaiye.
Oyegun said, “Economically, things are difficult; there is no question about it. But in spite of that, people of your quality sat down and still want to join the boat because you have seen the future and you know the future belongs to a changed country. A country that produces, not only consumes.
“In the last 16 years of previous administrations, we just consumed. Thank God this nation brought President Buhari at the point it was about to collapse and all we are doing today is putting the pieces back together again.
“It is a difficult experience and as a result of that our people are going through some hardship. But there is no question at all that you can see the silver lining that is on the way.
“By the end of this year, we will be net exporters of rice. Today we have started formally to export yam. Today we are about certain that all the grains in this country can be produced locally. These are all parts of the building blocks towards the Nigeria that we foresee in another year or two.”

The two dated for two and a half years, a relationship that saw the couple costar in reality television show ‘Nairobi Diaries.’ They were also engaged but due to irreconcilable differences, they have gone their separate ways.
Speaking to Kiss about the failed relationship Prezzo said: “If God hasn’t written it, it won’t turn out the way you want it to.I believe that life is a learning curve and if one door closes, another one opens. Some things will happen and make you feel heartbroken but maybe it could turn out to be a blessing in disguise.”

Prezzo also said he has not moved on and is in no rush to jump into another relationship.

“The tattoo stays because you have to understand that when I was getting this tattoo she was a very big part of my life.We dated for like two and a half years and the problems that I came across she was the only one there for me. Me saying I’m gonna remove the tattoo because she has another man is petty and immature,” said Prezzo.

But her husband, who was sitting outside appealed to her to stop quarrelling. I think it must be the fire from the stove that must have spread to the where the kerosene was stored.
“The kerosene was stored in many nylon bags and kept at veranda. Maybe, while she was quarrelling, she never knew that the stove was close to her. She was must have unconsciously kicked the cooking stove and the fire got close to the stored kerosene.

Most Of The Nollywood Actors We Have Today Are Homosexuals - Jude Orhorha
“I know what some actors and actresses did to gain the fame that they are enjoying now. Some of the men in the industry are gay while the women sleep around and that is why I am not bothered about where I am today. When it is your time, it is your time. Some entertainers are opportunist while others are born lucky. Omotola was born lucky from day one; her first character was a lead role. Some people marry for money and not love. That is why I am not really bothered because some of the guys are gigolos. They do not make their money from the movie industry but from the gigolo business. I cannot do such because I have a name to protect. In the 80s when I started this business, none of them was anywhere to be found. I have seen it all and I refuse to join them. Gays have approached me but I declined their offers because my anus is an exit point and not an entrance. The same thing with sugar mummies but I refused to accept their proposal because I cannot sleep with married women. I believe in karma. If it does not happen to you, it would happen to your generation.”
He added that when he started out as an actor, the profession was not fetching as much money as it does now.
“How much were we being paid in the past compared to what we are earning now? When we started, the money was not really there and that is why we were more interested in the show and not the business because there was no money.
“There is another thing called ‘packaging’ and that is what I am against. I am not saying that entertainers should not package but they should do so according to their means. Some ‘package’ to the extent that they borrow people’s cars and clothes. It just doesn’t make sense. Some people ‘package’ till they run into debts and then when the money comes, they clear the debts,” the actor said.

I Am Very Passionate About Unemployment - Frank Donga
Speaking with Saturday Beats, Kunle is famously known as Frank Donga said he is a Masters degree holder and had a job when he was shooting the series, however he has always been fascinated about unemployment.
In his words:
“I have degrees in Agriculture. My first degree was in Animal Science and I have a Master’s degree in Animal Genetics. The Frank Donga Interview series online about a clumsy young man looking for job in Nigeria became a reality because I am passionate about unemployment. The truth is that I was gainfully employed when I started The Interview series online. I have always been passionate about young people who go to school, spend about five or six years, graduate and not have anything to do. I am very passionate about unemployment. When I did The Interview series, I was employed but I just wanted young Nigerians to be able to cope during job interviews because in reality, young people actually freak out during job interviews as well as visa application interviews. I just did the skits for people to know that they should be relaxed during these interviews.”
