Review of 2017 AMVCA by Charles Novia - "It was a night of supporters' club"

Image
Ace Nollywood film maker and veteran actor, Charles Novia, put thoughts into words with his piece, which reviews the recently held 2017 African Magic Viewers' Choice Award (AMVCA). If you missed his 5 best nollywood actors for 2016, here is  it.  He writes; There isn't anything much to write about the AMVCAs this year. It looks like it has grown with its own dawdles, aspirations and reward values in the past five years , yet still has to be weaned off the tits of muted controversies in the awards categories. The first impression one got from the AMVCAs this year was that perhaps the planning for the event might have been hit by the fall outs of the recession in Nigeria or something. Unlike past editions, the buzz and anticipation for the 2017 edition was unusually low key or just lukewarm. There was a lack of excitement for the event generally. And unlike past editions as well, the invitation cards, one of the most talked about pre-event staples of

Our men must learn that NO means NO -Toyin Aimakhu reacts to Kemen' s BBN scandal

Image
Nollywood actress, Toyin Aimakhu has reacted to the recent big brother naija scandal, that saw Kemen being evicted from the house.  The Actress who took to her Instagram handle to register her dissatisfaction with Kemen's action, advised big brother naija organizers to use Kemen's incident to educate the public on serial offences. According to Toyin, a lady owns her body and has the power to give it out or not. Here's what she wrote;  I want to urge Big Brother Naija to use #Kemen 's, incident to educate about serial offenses. Our men must learn that no means no. Don't imagine a consent you are not given. Don't claim she' s leading you on when you are the one that is on. A lady owns her body, she has the right to it, she has the power to give it or not. Don't force yourself on the next woman. Please parents, let's raise better men who will be protectors of women not aggressor. Let's do more to protect women, they make the world better pla

That is not my husband -Apostle Suleiman's wife reacts to husband's alleged "sex scandal" (watch video)

Image
Dr. Lizzy Johnson Suleiman, the wife of the founder of Omega Fire Ministries, Apostle Suleiman, who is at the center of an alleged "sex scandal", has reacted to the report.  According to the Pastor's wife, she has known her husband for 19 years, which is enough time to know a man who is promiscuous. Dr. Lizzy also alleged that the images and reports against her husband who is currently  attending a Ministers' conference, are all lies. The trained journalist further said that even if Stephanie Otobo releases more pictures which she alleged were photoshopped, it won't take away the picture of her husband in her heart. According to Dr. Lizzy, this is just cheap blackmail, as those at the other end of the sex scandal just want to take advantage of her husband's giving attitude. Here's the video;

The Race To Marry A Big Boy By Olamilekan Asiwaju

Image
We found this inspirating writeup on Instagram and thought to share. Read below  Via @asiwajuautos  The race to marry a BIG BOY is what’s now in vogue. Most ladies nowadays can’t function if there is no cash involved. The urge for material things has changed the STORY OF LOVE. Never make money your only priority when choosing your spouse. There’s more to marriage than money alone.A man with good heart is better than a rich man with the heart of beast. Most women say they want security in life so they won’t date the poor. If he’s not rich today doesn’t mean he will be poor for life. The happiness and security of your life is your responsibility. Those who choose never to endure at all may have to suffer for long. Getting married to the rich doesn’t guarantee happiness in life. HAPPINESS IS PRICELESS. Perhaps those who say they will rather cry inside a Mercedes than laughing on a bicycle have never experienced pain in their life. Some relationship mistakes can cause life regret.
