Naija's Amber Rose, Honey J Willis Is Dating Tonto Dikeh's Ex-bf Capo.

Honey J shared this pic n tweet on Twitter 4 days ago but quickly deleted it later.

You recall that earlier on in March this year, Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh had taken to Twitter to pour her heart out about a painful heartbreak she just suffered.

Then word went out that international model/musician Capo was the man responsible for Tonto's heartbreak. 2 months later, Honey J Willis delivered a cute bouncing baby girl who is now 6 months old, and Capo shared a new picture of.

*See it below*

Honey and Capo sure look good together. Capo used to be, I don't know if he still is, Honey's manager as at 2012. Still on my snooping around things, but so far, these are the 2 pictures I could find of the happy couple. There's no confirmed word about who Honey's baby daddy is, but Capo, I think he is. Tonto had found out her boyfriend Capo impregnated his artiste/video vixen and took to Twitter to share her pain back then. This is what I think happened.

Saheed Balogun reportedly drags wife fathia to court over name

According to unconfirmed reports, popular actor Saheed Balogun has dragged his ex-wife actress Fathia Balogun to court over the use of his name, Balogun, insisting that she drops it. The two were married for many years before ending their union, which produced three children, a few years ago.

Saheed has been trying for years to get Fathia to revert to her maiden name but Fathia has always insisted she made a career using the name and has no plans to ever drop it.

"My name is Fathia Balogun and it’s going to remain Balogun for life. Nobody can ever change that or stop me from answering that name" She said in an interview in 2011.

Well, now Saheed has reportedly gone to court to get her to drop the name.

Can the courts really force her to drop her ex-husband's name? And why is Saheed so insistent on this, how does it affect him?

4 Arriving Passengers From US Collapse At Muritala Mohammed Airport Lagos Due To Heat!

There was pandemonium at the Muritala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA) Lagos, yesterday evening when four passengers who arrived the city from Atlanta in the United States of America, collapsed due to excessive heat at the arrival hall of the airport terminal.

According to Leadership Newspaper, the passengers, who had arrived aboard Delta Airline, were waiting for baggage reclaim when the 4 who had just arrived from the US where the temperature is much cooler, got overwhelmed by the heat in the arrival area and collapsed.

A source close to the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) told LEADERSHIP Weekend that the cooling system at the airport was not working when the incident happened and that it might be due to the current remodelling of the airport.

It was learnt that two of the passengers were rushed to an undisclosed hospital in an ambulance belonging to the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN)

In his reaction to the development, the general manager, public affairs of FAAN, Yakubu Dati, said the situation was exaggerated by online reports.

Another FAAN official contacted who preferred anonymity said the unhealthy situation at the arrival hall of the airport was not new to most air travellers who had had to contend with it as they passed through immigration and baggage collection.

For those coming from Europe it is like coming from an extremely cold environment to an extremely hot environment and passengers have to sweat it out as they go through immigration formalities and then through the tortuous collection of their in luggage,” he said.

How much I pay president of a country to FAKE miracles – Pastor TB Joshua blasts

Pastor TB Joshua has finally lent his voice on the much-talked-about Jim Iyke deliverance that held in his church months ago.

In a recent interview with Punch, TB Joshua of SCOAN – Synagogue Church Of All Nation – cleared the air on Jim Iyke’s deliverance and other allegations that he pays people to come and fake miracles.

On Jim Iyke

Oh please, don’t drag me into that. All I can say is that if a person needs to see a doctor, he should be free to do so. I like the young man.

He has been defending himself on the internet. Is he not enjoying a better life now? Are things not working for him?

On allegations he pays people to fake miracles

How much will I give to the president of a nation to come here?

Even when they come, I don’t get any financial gain but I incur cost because I want to ensure that they are well cared for. That is all;

I even prefer to spend my time with the poor than to be with the presidents.

If a president visits this place today, the whole of the day will be devoted to that visit, I would have lesser time for the poor people, who need my attention.

God has been warning me over this trend so much that when some presidents said that they wanted to visit me, I said no.

I said it would be better for me to visit them in their countries.

Each time they visit this place, I receive query from God because of my time that should have been used to attend to the poor and the needy that are waiting for me.

One soul is not superior to the other, why should I continue to receive query? Really out of three presidents that may visit, there will hardly be one that will show good example of the counsel that they received from me.

If the needy are more receptive to God, it is better to give them more of my time

ASUU strike update: 10 things you did NOT know about FG meeting with VCs in Abuja

The face-off between the Federal Government and members of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU) may have taken another twist as the former is making plans to railroad the striking lecturers back to the classrooms. University lecturers had embarked on an indefinite strike in July after accusing the FG of reneging on their promise of, among other things, injecting funds into the education sector.

The lecturers had given stringent conditions for their return to classes demanding a payment of the four-month salary arrears of its members from July and the release of N200 billion that President Goodluck Jonathan promised to inject into the university system within the next two weeks. The FG had countered these demands by ordering the lecturers back to school by Wednesday, December 4, reportedly directing the Inspector General of Police to make adequate preparations to forestall any form of violence which may ensue as the directive is being obeyed by willing lecturers.

According to reports, the FG delegation had met on Friday with vice-chancellors of Federal Universities to fashion out a way of ensuring that its directive is followed by their respective institutions. The meeting which reportedly had the Nigerian Universities Commission (NUC) boss, Julius Okojie in attendance deliberated on replacing the striking lecturers with new ones and opening a register in institutions so that members that resume work would indicate by signing and those who fail to do so may be shown the way out.

Read the 10 things we gleaned from the deliberations below:

- There was an emergency meeting on Friday convened by the Federal Government and held with all vice- chancellors of federal universities at the National Universities Commission building in Abuja. The Acting Minister of Education, Chief Nyesom Wike, and the Executive Secretary of the NUC, Prof Julius Okojie, were at the meeting. - The FG has directed the Inspector General of Police, Mohammed Abubakar, to deploy policemen to all federal universities in the country in its bid to ensure resumption of academic activities on or before December 4.

- To confirm this directive, the Police Public Relations Officer in Enugu, Ebere Amaraizu, said its men had been directed to man universities in the state to quell any protest that might result from the Federal Government’s order on lecturers to resume work on or before Wednesday.

- The Friday meeting which took place in Abuja began at 9am and lasted for two hours. Part of the meeting’s deliberations, also centred on how to recruit new lecturers to fill the space of ASUU members who might refuse to obey government’s directive. NUC boss, Julius Okojie was reportedly mandated to start the process of recruiting new lecturers by placing vacancy adverts in international journals and media.

- There are indications that vice- chancellors have been directed to call students back to campus by tomorrow in preparation for academic activities which should start early next week.

- The vice-chancellors were directed to open registers in their institutions where ASUU members that resume work would sign so that those who failed to resume could be shown the way out.

- Reports say that the Federal Government was planning to adopt the Ghanaian method where lecturers were asked to re-apply for their jobs after a prolonged period of downing tools.

- It was revealed that Nigerian universities are currently in need of about 30,000 lecturers due to the shortage of lecturers in the university system.

- December 4 is a decisive day between the FG and striking university lecturers as the date had been set aside by ASUU to bury Prof. Festus Iyayi, a former President of the union who died in an accident on his way to a meeting in Kano.

Iyayi had died on the Abuja-Lokoja road when the car his was travelling in collided with the convoy of the governor of Kogi, Idris Wada on Novermber.

Members of the Union had quickly made a decision to suspend its proposed NEC meeting indefinitely to honour the memory of the late professor.

- The University of Nigeria (UNN) chapter of ASUU yesterday said its members would not resume work until their demands are met. The UNN- ASUU also described the Minister of Education, Wike, as a “tout”.

“We have not heard from the President, so we cannot speak officially on the matter. It would be senseless to begin to react to a statement from Wike since he is a tout,” said Dr. Ifeanyi Abada, Chairman of UNN- ASUU.

Well, where do we go from here. Your guess is as good as ours. It is however, imperative that the two parties immediately find a way out of this impasse so as not to keeps students at home unnecessarily.

FG to pay Keshi, others N78m salaries

ABUJA – The Federal Government is to step in to pay the outstanding wages of Super Eagles’ coach Stephen Keshi, the sports minister has announced, promising his salary arrears would be cleared.

Bolaji Abdullahi said he had received approval from President Goodluck Jonathan to pick up the tab for Keshi and his assistants, who are owed a total of 78 million naira ($485,000, 357,000 euros).

Keshi, who earns five million naira a month but has not been paid for at least five months, took Nigeria to glory in the Africa Cup of Nations and qualification for the World Cup finals in Brazil.

“The Presidency has made arrangements to pay the salary arrears of the coach of the Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi,” Abdullahi told reporters on Thursday.

From left: Super Eagles Assistant Coaches, Ike Shorunmu; Daniel Amokachi and Head Coach, Stephen Keshi, at a media chat on 2014 Fifa world cup qualifier between Nigeria and Ethiopia, in Abuja recently.

“We (the sports ministry) don’t have the responsibility of paying the coaches. The (Nigerian football) federation has that responsibility.

“But the government cannot say ‘let the federation handle it on their own’ anymore. Since it was not in our budget, I had to appeal to the Presidency and everything should be cleared soon.” The Nigerian Football Federation, which relies on government funding, has been plagued by financial worries in recent years and receives little in the way of private sponsorship.

There are complaints that the budget is inadequate to meet the team’s commitments.

Financial constraints have led to protests, including before this year’s Confederations Cup, where there was a stand-off between players and the federation over the size of win bonuses.

Keshi, meanwhile, said he was baffled at Nigeria’s position in the latest FIFA world rankings announced on Thursday, slipping three places from 33 to 36 despite their World Cup qualification and a 2-2 draw in a friendly versus Italy.

“I am shocked (by the latest rankings). We won the Africa Cup of Nations this year, qualified for the World Cup and four-time world champions Italy held us to a draw, so I am surprised,”

he said. The latest rankings are expected to be one of the yardsticks to be used for next week’s World Cup finals draw.

Keshi, however, said that as long as the Super Eagles were winning, rankings were immaterial.

“We should continue to win and make Nigerians proud because that is what is most important to me and Nigerians,” he added.

“If we remain in wherever we are in the ranking and keep winning and Nigerians are happy, then I am happy.

Protesters Disrupt Oduah’s Award Ceremony In London

An award event in London was on Thursday night disrupted by some protesting Nigerian women who kicked against the inclusion of the Minister of Aviation, Stella Oduah as one of the recipients of the awards as “shameful and embarrassing”

Kaduna State Governor, Mukhtar Ramalan Yero was also one of the honourees ; while the Aviation Minister was given an award for “Aviation transformation and best performing minister in Nigeria”,

The event, which held at the Radison Hotel, Central London, was organized by the Global Peace Movement to present “Peace, Development and Security” award to Governor Yero; while the Managing Director of Nigeria Airspace Management Agency, (NAMA) Nnamdi Udo, was recognized for “excellence” in airspace management.

The chaos started when the citation of Ms. Oduah, who was represented, was being read as prelude to the presentation of the award.

Suddenly, a woman who gave her name as Taiwo Akpabio started speaking and shouting, condemning the conferment of the award on Ms. Oduah.

Speaking at the top of her voice, Ms. Akpabio said it was shameful and insulting for the organizers to give an award to the minister after series of air mishaps in the country under her watch, which resulted in loss of many lives, as well as the alleged scandal in the purchase of the bullet-proof BMW cars involving the minister.

Chaos and confusion descended on the venue for sometime as all efforts to calm down the protester failed.

Insisting that she had the right to speak out and criticize the insensitivity of the organizers, Ms. Akpabio had to be dragged out of the venue by security officials of the hotel.

As Ms. Akpabio was being bundled out, another protester who gave her name as Maryam Awolowo took the floor and rained invectives against the organizers for giving an award to Ms Oduah.

She too was dragged out of the venue of the awards event. Both women asked rhetorical questions, including how much the organizers were paid to give the awards to the recipients.

It took a while before normalcy was restored and the event continued with the presentation of the peace and security award to Governor Yero.

Life is full of trials and tribulations, but I know now how to get out of it.

You have to make a decision to say ‘no more’.’
