I intend to marry and have a child this year – D’banj

35-year old popularly known as D’banj stands tall as one of the most eligible bachelors in the Nigerian entertainment industry. And despite being romantically linked with several women, some of them the most beautiful in this part of the world over the years, he remains single.

D’banj said that it’s his desire to settle down and have a child this year. D’banj admitted that he was under pressure to get married last year, saying: ‘Yes, I was under pressure towards the end of last year to get married, my mum really wanted it.’ When asked if he has plans of taking a bride home to his mum this year, D’banj said: ‘Well, I don’t know yet, but said he know he is intending to do it this year.

More importantly for me, I’ve always wanted to have a child, but last year my brother, Kay Switch had a child and it brought so much joy to me. So this year, I’m thinking of settling down to have my own Koko junior soon.’

Few Days to Muna Obiekwe’s Burial, More Stories emanating

Some of the sad posts that Muna’s colleagues posted on their various social media accounts, it was made known that the actor, died after he could not afford the fee the Nigerian health care was demanding.
Nollywood actors, Uche Jumbo, Mike Ezuruonye, Stella Damasus and others who confirmed the death of the talented Nollywood actor, also in their posts made it known that they were all in the dark as to his health condition. Even Nigeria’s Actors’ Guild president, Ibinabo Fiberesima, was unaware of the actor’s illness before his sudden death.
Some of the actors and actresses confirmed from their posts also that the film industry in Nigeria is no better than a ‘make-believe’, as everyone is just content with the publicity and showing off involved in the business. Actress, Ify Okeke made it known that there are no real friends in the industry.
It is also true that the health system in Nigeria needs a revamp as unconfirmed reports said that the late actor needed only N50k for dialysis per day and Muna allegedly could not afford this. Ify Ikeke thinks that, although Muna did not open up to anyone in the industry about his health situation, most of our actors and actresses prefer showing off to helping fellow colleagues.
It would be recalled that the popular musician and music director, OJB Jezreel, had a kidney transplant in India with the help of his celebrity colleagues who donated generously.

PDP Oppressing Nigerians, Says Governor Oshiomhole

Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole on Wednesday said that Nigerians are yet to enjoy meaningful socio-economic development because of the oppression of the Peoples Democratic Party.
He said that the citizens as well as critical sectors of the economy had continued to suffer under the 16-year leadership of the PDP because the party “is dedicated to preserve the privileges of the few”.
The governor further described the PDP as “an impotent man”, who could no longer bring development to the country after 16 years.
He spoke while receiving defectors from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress in Benin, the Edo State capital.
Among the defectors was a three-time House of Representatives member, Mr. Ehiogie West-Idahosa; the National President of Goodluck for Transformation and State Women Coordinator, Mrs. Evelyn Igbafe; and a founding member of the PDP, Roland Ehigiamusoe.
Oshiomhole accused the Federal Government of denying Nigerians the benefit of the country’s rich oil deposits, in addition to subjecting the citizens to hardship through epileptic power supply.
