  • ENTERTAINMENT: Court Fixes March 30, For D'banj Debt Allegation.

    Nigerian music star D’banj popularly known as KOKOMASTER is still in celebration mood with parties and concerts around the world celebrating his 10th year commemoration as an entertainer; however his alleged debt allegation crisis that seems to have died down has reared its ugly head up again….

    In the last quarter of 2014, multiple media reports alleged that D’banj might be dragged to court by a top oil and gas industry player, Henry Ojogho, Vice Chairman of Broron Group. Ojogho, who is also the Vice Chairman of MindHub Technologies, an integrated Rice farming and milling production company, who alleged that D’banj, through his company, DKM Media Limited, obtained a loan of over N60m from him in January 2013 and has not paid back the said sum despite signing an undertaking to do so.

    Following this allegation, the write of summons and other relevant documents in the suit was posted on D’Banj’s residence on Osaro Isokpan Street in Lekki Phase 1.

    The pasting was done by the court bailiff on December 17, 2014 at about 1:35p.m, pursuant to order of court made on November 12, 2014 having been satisfied that the defendant was evading being served the notice.

    Subsequently, the court case between the DB Records boss and Mindhub Technologies bearing suit number: LD/ADR/445/14 was scheduled to commence hearing on Monday, January 26, 2015 at the Multi-door Courthouse in Obalende, Lagos, but it was indefinitely postponed as a result of strike by the Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria (JUSUN) which paralysed activities and court rooms remain closed.

    The strike was recently called off by the judicial workers, and immediately a new date was set for the court case. Speaking exclusive with NET, a source in the camp of the claimant’s camp said, ‘Yes, we are back to court, and we are aware that D’banj has secured the services of a lawyer as well who wants to file in some documents in his defense, but we are yet to receive the papers.

    Meanwhile the case has been adjourned to March 30, 2015 at the Multi-door Courthouse in Obalende, Lagos. In January 2015, D’banj kicked off his 10th year anniversary celebrations in Lagos when he successfully brought in American twerk queen Amber Rose to host the kick-off party in Lagos.

    In February he moved the party to South Africa where he was hosted at ‘Harlem’ and ‘Kong’ night clubs with a lot of celebrities in attendance. And just last week Thursday, February 27, 2015, D’banj headlined the Industry Night celebrations in Dubai as part of his 10th anniversary celebrations where he performed alongside Kenya’s Sauti Sol, Dubai’s G Mac and others….

  • League Cup A Boaster For Chelseafc

    It's as though the rebuilding of the bridge is taking off on a full flight. Surely Jose Mourinho and His team will be feeling lots of confidence and also have their ego intact as they humbled Tottenham to claim the league cup in Wembley Stadium 2-0 to claim their first Trophy of the Season. Even though the League Cup is the least title in England it didn't really seem as though it was. Jose Mourinho and His team knew of how much importance this will help in the remaining part of their season to Challenge for the Champions League and the English Premier League.
    So much joy was expressed as Jose Mourinho went to the ground in exhilarating mood and excitement. Chelsea are no more in the FA Cup but this League Cup victory will help restore their balance, confidence and focus. Chelsea were truly looking out of sort in the first half especially in the midfield area where Matic is known to be the commander in Chief but was missing due to suspension. But the second half was totally different ball game which saw Zouma waking up to the game and the rest of Chelsea team. This will surely be a pedestal for take-off for Chelsea this season as it this the first trophy of new Jose Mourinho era since returning to the blues.

  • NEWS: fuel scarcity hits lagos, worsens in the federal capital territory

    By nelson amaobi osuala
    Entrances into so many filling stations in lagos and other parts of the country remained shut to motorists from sunday, 1st of march, following a sharp drop in the supply of petrol to the market. Findings reveal that oil marketers were no longer interested in importing the product mainly because of the incessant rising exchange rate of the dollar to the naira. Other factors contributing to this fuel scarcity include delayed subsidy payment and the rising interest of loans from banks. With this kind
    Of thing happening few weeks to the election, one could seldomly see any ray of hope in the next Government. Presently, many lagosians are stranded as majority of them are seen on the streets trekking to their places of work. Gas and fuel stations are filled with long queue of vehicles who pray for at least a litre of fuel to help push them to the next bus stop. We cannot stop but wonder what would become of the future of our next generation? Come to think of it, How would Nigerians transport themselves from place to place to fend for their daily bread talk less of going out to cast their vote during the forthcoming election.?
