Mercy Aigbe's Response to fans on Police Arrest Case in Oshogbo

Morning fans, it has come to my attention that news has been flying around that I was arrested by the police in Oshogbo.... for the records I was never ARRESTED! I was shooting a movie in Oshogbo and was going for a break with my PA and driver when we saw a police van chasing us, they later double crossed us to come down. I was shocked and scared because I didn't know what was going on. I stepped out of the car to ask them what happened and why they double cross us in that manner, the policemen started shouting and acting crazy pointing his gun at me. On seeing his behaviour I took out my phone and started to record them, one of them forcefully collected my phone from me. My PA also started recording them with an ipad and the policeman slapped her and threw the ipad away. At this point a lot of crowd had already gathered when they saw me and what was happening and they started booing them, saying that is how Oshogbo policemen harass innocent citizens. When the policemen saw the large crowd supporting us and that they could be mobbed, they stylishly left only to call for reinforcement of other police officers. Those ones came and started shooting sporadically into the air, everyone had to run for their lives. The police officers then forcefully collected my car key and car documents from my driver and even tried to beat him up. They then ushered us into my car and a police man drove us to their state headquarters. On getting there, we were taken to the office of the assistant commissioner of police where we narrated what happened and how their men harassed us and caused unnecessary commotion!.... I even showed him the videos I recorded. The ACP then apologised and pleaded with me to delete the videos. We settled the matter and I went back to work.... Big thanks to my family, friends and fans for checking up on me.

My Fame is Enough for me and my Family, no one will hear about my marriage – D’banj

Nigerian singer, born Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo, popularly known as D’banj, says his marriage will be a quiet one, that nobody would be aware of it. He noted that his status as a married man ‘when it happens’, would not make him put an end to his music career. In a chat with the Punch, he said, “I would tell you the truth, I am not married but if I am, nobody would hear about it. Besides, who says I am not married? “It is going to be a very quiet wedding because I am tired of people asking me that question. It is my personal life and it is not going to change my music or brand. “I am not going to get married just because people want me to, neither would I do it just to enter another phase of my life just like some of my colleagues have done. They make it seem as if once you are married you have retired. But that should not be the case. “Marriage would not change anything about me and whenever it happens, nobody would hear about it, there would only be speculations. My wife w

Niger Delta militants blamed by Yoruba leaders of Southwest attack

Elders from the Southwestern part of the country, under the umbrella of Yoruba Unity Forum, YUF, have strongly condemned the recent attacks on Yoruba land. The forum warned that ‘’enough is enough.’’ YUF was reacting to the recurring incidents of criminal activities of terrorists, militants, oil thieves, kidnappers, armed robbers and Fulani herdsmen in the region, which had claimed many lives and destroyed properties worth millions of naira in recent times.   In a statement by Rt Rev Emmanuel Gbonigi (chairman) and Senator Anthony Adefuye (secretary), the elders said they were compelled to aver again that the murderous activities of the criminals were stressing the peace, stability and corporate existence of the country. Vowing that the attacks would not go unpunished, they said they would not allow the South-West to become a theatre for the prosecution. According to him, “Nigeria is at the precipice, threats of insecurity to life and property is no longer the
