President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has an Easter message for you!

Dear Compatriots,

I greet and felicitate with you all as we celebrate Easter which commemorates the resurrection of our Lord, Jesus Christ after his redemptive self-sacrifice for the eternal salvation of mankind.

Irrespective of our religion or faith, all holidays provide us with a fresh opportunity to establish stronger bonds with our family, friends and all those around us for more enduring, harmonious and beneficial relationships.

As we celebrate this year’s Easter therefore, I urge all Nigerians to rededicate themselves to living in peace and oneness with all members of their communities no matter their ethnicity, religious beliefs or places of origin.

By now, it ought to be an accepted fact amongst us that our immense potential for greatness in the comity of nations derives in the main from our collective strength as a country of close to 170 million people and the acclaimed richness of our diverse human resources and natural endowments.

It follows, therefore, that to successfully achieve our vision of becoming one of the most dominant nations on the global stage in the shortest possible time, we must stay together as a people and continue to effectively resist by all possible means, the evil machinations of global terrorists and their misguided domestic accomplices who seek to provoke turmoil, hatred and harmful divisions among us.

I assure all Nigerians that our security agencies, armed forces and I will continue to fully discharge our constitutional responsibilities for protecting the unity and territorial integrity of this country with all the powers and forces at our disposal.

We must have peace, security and stability to effectively implement our agenda for national transformation in all parts of the country and we shall continue to work ceaselessly to re-establish the prerequisite conditions for nationwide progress and development.

My Nigerian Idol Experience..

The other day I was wondering where to watch Nigerian Idol since HITV seemed to mess things up and packed up or went away or something,first they were repeating all the programmes like seriously there was a particular Nigerian(Yoruba film) they showed like 200 times no exaggeration here.. and then they went off like just like that.. seriously HITV ?? just like that..
Anyways not to digress I saw some episodes of Nigerian Idol season three online and I wanted to watch on the Telly(I mean i already spend too much time online) so i was so happy when i checked my sky programme guide and saw that Nigerian Idol was showing on "the African Channel 209" ( you people had better pay me my money for that advert lol)

Then I recorded it to watch later and and then I settled down with some Digestive and Vimto lol..( I love Vimto) I realised i had missed alot as they were already into the top 6 whew! was wondering how a recurring applicant like GODwin Onoja was no longer in the competition my research indicated he dint even advance to the top 10 really??

Well back to the episode Darey was the guest judge and contestants were to sing two songs one from Luther Van dross and from Nigerian Hilife as well.

For starters they actually sang most of the unpopular Luther songs I mean there are other ones na..Well i have summarised key Points from my experience below(Disclaimer these are just my views on 2 or 3 episodes)

• Yinka Davies can give Oshodi Agbero's a run for their money

Seriously Aunty Yinka can you stop shouting already!!! You are there to critic and judge these young un's,they want to hear advise on how to be better how to succeed not just "You did it!!!" or "Cmon on!!" tone it down ma'am..

The Legend That is, Chinua Achebe passes on..

One of the greatest Novelists,poet, Author,Professor,critic could go on and on Professor Chinua Achebe has gone to a new place.

 I remember Things fall apart always made reference to as one of his most popular works and reputed to be one of the most read literature in Africa and out of Africa

I once watched the movie adaptation and it was quite intriguing and reeked intelligence which you had to have yourself to fully understand the depth of the writer himself.

Achebe was an upright man who stood for what was right despite all circumstances an instance of even refusing a national Award to show his distaste and disapproval of some of the policies of the Nigerian Government.

Chinua Achebe was an Icon in all respects in Africa and Across the world with most of his books gaining recognition and world Acclaim and even teaching in some of the best schools in the world we can only say we have lost an Icon whom we should however celebrate  because he made a positive Impact in Nigeria,Africa and the world at large.

Other Notable work by Chinua Achebe include "Anthills of the Savannah","No Longer at Ease" and "Arrow of GOD" 

The Legendary Poet passed away march 21 he was 82 years old. May His soul rest in peace.

Jesse jagz leaves Chocolate city!!

Chocolate city is an entertainment company  and label home to top acts like MI,Iceprince,Jesse jagz,Brymo,Victoria Kimani and so many others. A browse through of top music site Notjustok, reveals a press release by Jesse jagz who happens to be MI's brother that he his leaving the label see below..

"To whom it may concern:

I, Jesse Garba Abaga (also known as “Jesse Jagz”) an artist formerly signed to Chocolate City Music label hereby wishes to notify my fans and the general public about my voluntary exit from the label.
After my initial two year contractual agreement with Chocolate City, I do not wish to renew my contract with them and as such have proceeded to continue my music career with my new team at Jesse Jagz Nation. I still maintain a cordial relationship with the management of Chocolate City and my former label mates and I wish them the best in all their future endeavors. Any further information will be passed across through my publicist but until then, have a good day. Look out for my sophomore album JagZNation Vol. 1 coming out in July 2013.

All for the best,
Jesse Jagz."

So why is boi jesse suddenly leaving the label?? come to think of it just maybe jesse has been neglected somewhat i mean MI is doing well,Ice prince is also on top of his game,Brymo is also a top artist at the moment even new girl Victoria Kimani but Jesse has just been down there in the background virtually no notice of him  at all..So maybe  Jesse made the right decision afterall.. All the best to you Jesse!

Dana Air's License again suspended over safety concerns..

Its only been months that DANA fully secured  back their aviation License to fly again after it was revoked due to one of his carriers  which was involved in  fatal air crash that killed over 163 people in Lagos Nigeria.

 However that decision seems to have been rescinded by the Federal government as regards safety concerns.

 The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) confirmed this decision and that status quo would be maintained till those safety concerns were taken care of.

According to punch newspapers,the suspension followed a directive from the Ministry of Aviation, asking the airline to stop operation until “some safety issues that cropped up over the weekend were resolved.”

The acting DG said the Minister of Aviation, Ms. Stella Oduah, had invited officials of Dana Air to a meeting in Abuja today (Monday) over the development.

Reacting to the development, Dana said the NCAA had asked it to suspend operations without giving any specific reason.

It was learnt that the safety issues happened on one of its flights in Abuja over the weekend

A statement by the Head, Corporate Communications, Dana Air, Mr. Tony Usidamen said, “We regret to announce the temporary suspension of our flight operations following a directive from the Ministry of Aviation through the Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority on Saturday, March 16, 2013; no specific reason was given for the action.

 “A meeting is, however, scheduled between the management of Dana Air, the Ministry of Aviation and the NCAA on Monday, March 18, and we will update you as we get more information. We thank you for your patience and understanding, and we look forward to having the pleasure of welcoming you on board again shortly.”

My thoughts exactly are that DANA AIR should ensure that they can be an airline worthy to lift people,why should there ever be any safety concerns after all the tears and heartache caused alot of Nigerians by their pure negligence??

Alot of promising lives were lost,alot of families wiped out should there ever be any safety concern breached again? after being given a second chance??

I applaud the Aviation authorities for at least doing something and taking a decision and not waiting until another tragedy.

Update: 19th March 2013

Dana Air's License has however been restored

Well that dint take long did it?? two days or so.. well..
