Relationship Question!

If your friend asked you to seduce their partner, just to test their loyalty and faithfulness to them, would you do it?

Spider Man 3 In Pictures














I'm so looking forward to watching the third and most likely the final episode in the Spider Man movie series. It's opening worldwide at the theatres tomorrow April May 4th. It will be showing at the Numetro Cinemas, the Palms Shopping Mall, Lekki, for all you movie lovers. I know there's a 6 o'clock and 10 o'clock showing.


I am so sad about the exit of the guy I thought would win American Idol. 29 year old Phil Stacey was eliminated yesterday alongside 22year old Richardson, leaving four remaining contestants with only one male amongst them. Oh well, I guess things don't always happen the way we want it to. But I'm sure he has a future in the music industry...His voice is imcomparable. Who else loves Phil?

Naija Entertainment Gists.



Plantashun Boiz regroup
The talented trio of Tuface, Faze and Blackface are coming back together for real to make another Plantashun Boiz album. A particular marketer is said to have paid the trio millions of Naira to go to the studio as a group and make another album. On Friday April 27th, the group sang together at Nigga Raw's album launch at the Vault. The three of them left the venue of the concert together in a jeep confirming reports that the relationship between them is now cordial. Let me feel important here lol. In 2000, I paid Plantashun Boiz one of the highest fees they received that year for a concert. It was for the Miss Unilag pageant that I co-ordinated. I paid them fifty grand. Yes all three of them. I remember taking Blackface to the sponsors of the event (Amigos) to collect the cash. Imagine how much they demand individually now. Change is the only constant thing in life. Moving on...



Mama Gee's video
I just finished watching top Nollywood actress patience Ozokwor's new video. I can't remember it's title but it was an Igbo/pidgin english version of Ghana sensation VIP's popular song 'Ahoum ke hum'. I know I didn't get that name right...pls correct me somebody. The song was about forgeting your sorrows and drinking, eating Naija delicacies like 'Nkwo bi' 'Nsi ewu' etc..
Anyway, if you guys see Patience's dressing in this video...na wa o! She had on an alter neck jeans over-all with her bum figure in clear display. Mama Gee the Mama. BTW, Mama Gee is her stage name.




Omotola's new video
How many of you have seen Omotola's new video for her song 'Dance' with Ruggedman? I love her acting skills, I like some of her songs and if her husband is okay with her dress sense that's fine by me. But this video was over doing it. If you haven't seen it, you won't understand what I'm saying. It was a shabby funny imitation of Jay z and Beyonce's crazy in love. Remember the scene where Jay z was rapping and B was dancing around him in a bikini? Well Omosexy and Rugged tried to re-enact it albeit unsuccessfully. Omotola wore a pant that was up to her stomach and a bra-top, with her mid-section showing and dancing around Rugged while he was rapping. Omotola has not been able to shed that much weight since giving birth to her four kids, so wearing skimpy clothes does not do any justice to her body.



Ade Bakare's fashion show
Ade Bakare is set to have a fashion show on the 19th/20th of this month at the Civic Centre, Victoria Island. I'll be there live and direct and report to y'all



Grace Egbagbe set to leave NTA
Barrister Grace Egbagbe, the GM Marketing of Nigeria's largest Network, Nigerian Television Authority, NTA, will be retiring from the company next month June after having put in almost thirty years of active service. She has been with NTA since October 1978 after her film and TV degree from the University of California, Los Angeles where she graduated with an MFA in May 1978. Magazines in Naija are reporting that the very elegant woman already has offers from companies in the banking, telecoms and oil industry. There's also talk of her friends planning a red carpet pulling out parade for her.



Wild Child's wild party
Rhythm 93.7 top radio presenter Wild child celebrated his birthday last week Friday April 27th and everyone who attended said the party was definitely one of the best parties ever. I first heard about it on radio, the guy just couldn't shut up stop talking about his party lol. He even announced the names of invited guests on radio. Your name not on the list? Don't dare show your face at the venue which was 11:45, after party, Coconut Groove, Awolowo Ikoyi.




OJB's third time
I thought 2face was the champion lover but this guy takes the crown. 40 year old producer/singer OJB Jezreel is about to marry wife no 3. This is no joke or rumour. He got married in the early 90's, had three children with the first wife, then some years ago he married and had a child with singer Amah. Now he's set to wed wife no 3, a dancer called Korede, who is already carrying his baby no 5. I remember watching an interview where he said he's planning on marrying five wives...he laughed immediately he made that statement so I figured he was joking. But he apparently wasn't kidding 'cos he's more than half way through.
Well it's his life. If that's the way he wants it, nothing else matters..I'm just surprised that young girls don't mind being 2nd/3rd wives. Moving on...




Girl Power Unleashed moves to Ibadan and Benin.
The organisers of GPU concert are set to move the train to the capital cities of Oyo and Edo state next month June 2007. The female singers of GPU include Ashionye, Niyola, Blaise, Kemistry, Sasha, Zeal, Amaka and Amina. I love this concept.



KC Presh new ride
I just heard that KC Presh just acquired a Lincoln Navigator. Owned by both of course. Didn't know they were selling that many cd's. Good for them

Oh by the way, Super Eagles skipper Kanu Nwankwo is currently in the studios getting set to release a music album. He's being produced by OJB Jezreel whose sick daughter (she has a hole in the heart) is being taken care of by Kanu Nwankwo's Kanu Heart Foundation. What is this crase fascination with singing by these our Naija celebs? Maybe I should also hit the studios. At least I have enough family and friends to buy my album lol.

If you're feeling my Naija gists, send me comments.

My site meter tells me I now have between 500-600 views. Great improvement, but it's still not what I'm targeting. So please tell everyone you know who surfs the net to come check out my space.

Thanks. Ciao!!!

Josfyn's Dilemma

I have a friend called Josfyn. Josfyn is a married mother of two little children. Six years ago at age 19, her father gave her hand in marriage to a 42 year old married man with three kids. After the traditional marriage (There was a never a church or court wedding) Josfyn took in for her first child. After giving birth to her first daughter, she asked her husband to send her to the University to further her education. Her husband refused. His reason being that Josfyn will get too exposed and might start chasing other men. (Let me say here that Josfyn is one of the most beautiful women I've ever met). She begged her husband for two years to let her have a University education, still he refused. In 2004, 22 year old Josfyn gave birth to her second daughter, just a few weeks after her husband's first wife gave birth to her fourth child.

Eventually after four years of desperately begging her husband and many pleas from her family, he allowed her sit for Jamb which she passed with flying colours. In October 2005, Josfyn gained admission into the University of Lagos to read Political Science. Two months later she met a post graduate student called Ben. This is where the trouble started.

Let me make some things clear about this story. Josfyn's husband first hit her four days after their traditional wedding, because she insulted someone who called her a gold digger. There was definitely some gold digging being done here but it wasn't by Josfyn, it was by her father who desperately needed to get his business started and promised his daughter to the man in exchange for capital. He basically wanted a rich in-law to go to every time he needed money.

Josfyn's mum gave her a million and one reasons to marry a man as wealthy as her husband and none of those reasons included happiness, love, compatibility or peace of mind. Two months into Josfyn's first pregnancy, her husband slapped her for staining his clothes while washing it. He didn't touch her again (Mostly because he travelled abroad very often) until Josfyn mentioned her desire to further her education. He beat the living day light out of her because he was convinced that Josfyn was looking for the opportunity to start dating other men. Josfyn was a full time house wife who did nothing but watch DSTV, cook, clean and take care of her child and step children. Josfyn at this time was just 21 years.

Her husband would beat Josfyn at the slightest provocation, he locked her up in her room if she dared talk back at him. If another man looed at her, she gets beaten up. He called her all sorts of names, hardly ever gave her any money (he said she would use it to buy things for her boyfriends), he was emotionally and physically abusive to Josfyn.

He didn't let her own a phone until 2004 after she gave birth to her second child and let me also say here that Josfyn said sex with him was sometime painful and most times unpleasant. The little friends that Josfyn had were not welcomed in their home, and her phone was always with the guy.

In 2005, her husband got another woman pregnant, the man never married this other woman, but he let her move into one of their flats and proudly told everyone who cared to listen that he was expecting his 7th child. And every time Josfyn ran to her mother, she told her the same story. Marriage is for better for worse. Her mother told her that every marriage had its challenges and she should be happy she's married since a lot of young girls were looking for husbands. Josfyn was so miserable but her mother asked her to remain in the marriage

But everything changed when Josfyn met Ben two months after getting into the University. Ben is 36, unmarried and works at a new generation bank. Ben fell deeply inlove with Josfyn and chased her for three months not knowing she was married.

He found out about her marital status when she fell from a bike on her way home. (Her husband had several choice cars, Josfyn had none to call hers. He only let her use one of his cars with a driver of course, when the errand concerns him or the children). Ben offered to drop Josfyn home, but she declined, explaining she was married. (Imagine her husband seeing her in another man's car).

A disappointed Ben vowed never to bother her again but for some reason they kept bumping each other until they both fell in love. Josfyn told her life story to Ben amidst tears and he promised to help her out of her miserable marriage and take care of her. Seven months after first setting eyes on each other, a married Josfyn and Ben became lovers. She told me she didn't know that sex was an enjoyable experience until Ben.

I didn't come into the picture until 2006 when Ben brought a very beautiful girl to my office to help her get modelling jobs since it has always been her dream to be a model. Ben introduced her to me as his fiancee, I never knew she was married with two kids until two months ago after she called me and asked if she could come spend some time with me in the office. She came everyday and stayed with me from morning till close of work like she was afraid of going home. It was after much pestering that she told me her story. She couldn't stop crying. Her husband had some how found out she was modeling and beat her after which he locked her up for days. When he saw a text Ben sent to her, he called the police on him but the police said they had no business in domestic affairs.

The thing here is that Josfyn had been planning to leave her husband and marry Ben. Ben had already rented a three bedroom apartment, bought her a ring, introduced her to his parents and was ready to take care of her and her children. Josfyn agreed to this life until two weeks ago when she called off all arrangements with Ben to remain in her husband's house. Ben later told me that Josfyn's parents had threatened to cut her off if she left her matrimonial home. Her phone is now permanently switched off. No one can reach her. (Unilag is unbreak) I know wherever she is she's extremely unhappy.

What can I do as a friend? What should ben do? I've never seen a man cry the way he's cried. What should Josfyn do? Obey her parents and stay in her miserable existence, (this girl doesn't have a life) or should she walk out and go be with someone who loves and makes her happy?
