Markets were yesterday ordered by Ife traditional chiefs to be closed for seven days. The development followed the official announcement of the death of Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade, the Olubuse II. As early as 10am yesterday, town criers went to the market places to deliver the messages to market men and women. The town criers were seen at Oja Ife, Oja Sabo, Lagere and others, warning traders to comply with the order or face dire consequences. Commercial banks within the town did not open for transaction, except for a long queue of customers at many Automated Teller Machines points, waiting to make withdrawals. The state government yesterday ordered clearing of bushes on the road sides from Ife-Ibadan expressway to the Obafemi Awolowo  University (OAU) area. Commercial buses plying the university campus yesterday were busy conveying many students in and out of the university, unlike on Wednesday when the students remained on campus all day in compliance with the

Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea is set to sit out a second game as Louis van Gaal suggested Sergio Romero will again start for at Aston Villa on Friday. De Gea, who was named United's player of the year for the last two seasons, was omitted by Van Gaal for Saturday's 1-0 win over Tottenham because of concerns about the Spaniard's state of mind amid interest from Real Madrid. But while he named the 24-year-old in United's 28-man squad for their two-legged Champions League qualifier against Club Brugge, he said the former Atletico Madrid player is set to be in the stands again. Asked if De Gea would be in the squad for the Villa game, he told a news conference: "No. It's the same situation." He also told MUTV: "The transfer period is still open and he [De Gea] has still the same problem." David De Gea, centre, was left out of the squad that faces Spurs along with Victor Valdes, left, and Anders Lindegaard. Romero, who was s

British actor David Oyelowo is to play James Bond – though in voice only. The Guardian reports that the 39-year-old is set to read the audio edition of Trigger Mortis, a new novel commissioned by the Ian Fleming estate and written by Anthony Horowitz. Oyelowo received a personal invitation from the estate of Ian Fleming, the author of the original Bond spy novels, and claimed he was “very honored” at the opportunity, telling The Guardian, “I am officially the only person on planet Earth who can legitimately say: ‘I am the new James Bond.’” While audiences today may best know him for his Golden Globe-nominated portrayal of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. in Selma, Oyelowo has already won considerable esteem for his acting prowess. In 2001, he became the first black actor to play an English king in the Royal Shakespeare Company’s Henry VI trilogy, earning high praise for his performance. Oyelowo is not the first black actor to play the role of Bond in audio form. In 2012, Hu

The Maybach Music Group rapper reportedly posted a long message on Instagram denouncing the beef saying  “I’m not entertaining no rap/real beef over drake s/o a rapper!” according to a tweet by DJ Akademiks who posted a screenshot of the since deleted IG post. Meek, who is currently on tour with girlfriend  Nicki Minaj , has also recently drawn the ire of Philly goon and aspiring rapper Ar-ab, He recently released  a scathing diss toward Meek  after reportedly being called out by the “All Eyes On You” rapper during a tour stop, the streets are talking and suggesting Meek may not be able to return to Philly soon, Perhaps this latest development played a role in his change of heart? “I don’t feel like I gotta try to prove myself to the people and end up in a real situation over this fake rap s–t!” Meek wrote. “I’m just on some next level s–t wit it tryna touch some real paper. … Leave all that murder one s–t in the streets.” A quick look at his Soundcloud page reveals his re

Earlier this year, “R&B Divas LA” star  Michel’le  caused quite the media stir when she opened up, once again, about her accusations that her former husband,  Dr. Dre , violently beat her and attacked her on several occasions during their marriage. For years, Dre has remained mum about the abuse allegations, but he recently spoke with  Rolling Stone  about his dark past and shared his side of the story on the claims. As previously reported, Michel’le claimed that it was public knowledge that she was in an abusive relationship with Dre. “I had five black eyes. I have a cracked rib. I have scars that are just amazing,” Michel’le told Vlad TV. Michel’le also claimed that the attacks became so violent that Dre even tried to shoot her. “I was getting dragged on the floor, shot at,” Michel’le said. “One night we was [sic] arguing. He went and got the gun. And I just made it through the bathroom door and the shot — and he shot at me and he missed me by that much. He almost hit

A Chilean Playboy bunny has claimed she had an affair with Real Madrid striker Cristiano Ronaldo before the break-up of his relationship with supermodel Irina Shayk. In an interview with Mexican newspaper Reforma, Daniella Chavez alleges she got together with Ronaldo in November last year, and claims she just ‘wanted to fulfil a dream’ to sleep with the 30-year-old Portugal international. She told Reforma:  ‘I met Cristiano in November 2014, in the United States. We had already talked by email and Skype; I had to travel for work, and he told me to go for a couple of days. Cristiano was very shy at first, but when he built up his confidence was quite a man, though still a bit fearful. He loved me, but the idea was not to show it.  I just wanted to fulfil a dream and have sex with him. I love his body. (Cristiano liked) my face, my Bosom s and the fact that he had never slept with a Playmate.’ Ronaldo’s 5 year old relationship with top model Irina Shayk had ended with clai

Although  Caitlyn Jenner  has definitely been receiving a mountain of praise after transitioning into a woman, not everyone is happy about her monumental  Vanity Fair  cover debut. And one of those people seems to be  Snoop Dogg , who bashed Caitlyn on Instagram this week. On Wednesday, Snoop posted a photo of Akon on Instagram with the message that slammed Jenner for being more newsworthy than Akon’s new Akon Lighting Africa, an initiative designed to bring electricity to millions of Africans using solar energy. Photo Credit: Snoop Dogg’s Instagram (@snoopdogg) “News flash. @akon tune in to ggn for some real news,” Snoop captioned the photo. Not surprisingly, Snoop’s comments were flooded with both critics and supporters. “This is the first time in history that trans people have a voice,” said one commenter. “It may be over publicized but it doesn’t justify the amount of hatred. Transphobia is not acceptable.” While another commenter wrote, “Snoop Dogg is right. This

Denver Water puts rapper Jay Z on blast after a seemingly stupid remark he made back in March. “Water is free. Music is $6 but no one wants to pay for music,” he told the New York Times. “You should drink free water from the tap — it’s a beautiful thing. And if you want to hear the most beautiful song, then support the artist,” Hov said in a story on the launch of his music streaming service, Tidal. Now, Denver’s water supplier has responded with a candid open letter, accusing Jay of under-appreciating the value of water. Steve Snyder of Denver Water wrote: “Dear Jay Z, First of all: Big fan! I’ve listened to your music for years; I’ve admired how you’ve become much more than an entertainer, and you have perhaps the coolest line I’ve ever heard, “I’m not a businessman, I’m a business, man.” But recently, you made a comparison about water and music. And since water is my business, I have to say, “Stick to your own business, man!” I get what you are saying. Artists should be p

In a recent report by gossip site TMZ,  Chris brown's baby mama Nia Guzman has reportedly called the Singer a dead beat dad over his cheap child support checks.  According to TMZ, sources claim that Nia Guzman, the mother of Brown’s daughter, Royalty, has been receiving a small monthly check of $2,500 a month from Brown for months. However, the sources say the checks stopped coming in March after Guzman demanded that he up the amount to $15,000 However chrisbrown reps feel that the checks are enough as it makes sure that Biatch is not trying to use that as a means of siphoning him. However, Nia sees it as a mere testament of the fact that Chris is cheap and miserly.   Guzman already has a lawyer, Carl Moore, and he allegedly plans to file a lawsuit against Brown in the next two weeks, demanding back child support and a huge increase in his monthly payments. I feel this is going to be messy, it is always messy when a child is involved.  Chris is rich and in My o

I think it's not news now that there are beefs in the rap industry and frankly it kinda makes it interesting.  Over the past couple of months, it's been reported the 50 cent and Rick Ross have been in a massive conflict with both taking to the media and releasing sings that serve as a diss for the the other. It was also reported that 50 cent might have allegedly leaked a sex tape of Rick Ross' baby mama lastonia Levinston and the video has over 3million views on youtube. Now it's been reported that Lastonia Levinston is suing 50 cent for emotions distress as she claimed that she almost committed suicide due to the shame and backlash she got over what He allegedly did. According to a deposition, Maurice Murray, a former lover of Leviston’s who appears alongside her in the video, is the person who gave the tape to 50 Cent. When the original version of the tape was posted, Murray’s face was blurred but Leviston’s was not. 50 says he had nothing to do with the origina

The outing has sparked rumours with Rick Fox stating that they are just good Friends.. she however stated that "they are just hanging out" and "There's no title on it yet". In fact, she said, she finds it "awkward" when people ask about the status of their romance. "I don't know what to say any more, because people go up and down in relationships. Sometimes you're there and sometimes you're not."

Matthew Lewis who played Neville Longbottom in the Harry Potter series is the cover of Attitude magazine and is showing off his amazing body in a semi nude shoot. In the interview held by the magazine he reveals some intricating details of himself. On his hot transformation: “Whenever I go back to Leeds or see people I went to school with they always talk about my veneers. I’m like, ‘I haven’t got veneers, these are my actual teeth!’ If I can’t f*cking convince people I went to school with how am I going to convince anyone else! I had these braces – which were fucking painful by the way – for six months, and then it was kind of a weird thing, I was excited I guess to go on the red carpet on the release of the last film and be me, and not to have to have the fat suit under my t-shirt. It was quite an exciting buzz. I was 21, I was like ‘yeah, this will be cool!’ It was never meant to be a ‘hey everyone, look at me!’ but it was nice to be able to go and be myself. And

Over the past couple of weeks there has been rumours about MGK. and Amber rose being a couple and the rapper has officially confirmed that. He says in a recent radio interview “Everything was completely natural. It wasn’t anything that I had expected or had planned. When the universe throws something your way — I’m one of those people that go with it and I don’t fight it." He however admitted to being overwhelmed about the relationship and attention he's getting. He says “I had no idea what came with that. And it would be a lie if I [said] it wasn’t a struggle — I’m one of the most anti spotlight people ever … It’s one of those things where it makes you rethink this whole fame thing again." I actually feel like this is what Amber needs especially with being in the media like for quite something with the kardashian feud and the wiz khalifa and kanye shame fest, it will actually be a good break for and MGK seems like a level headed Guy(regardless of the tattoos an

First of all I'd like to just say I'm not a music critic or into the music business in any sort, well maybe I am seeing as I am a consumer. Over the past couple of weeks I've been fuming and basically going crazy about the music scene in Nigeria. Like I said earlier I'm so not a music critic just a fan of really good music. Last week  a pal after going through My music playlist on My phone asked me Why I don't have many Nigerian Music on My phone as 90% are from another continent entirely.  And My response came as a shock to both of us,  I said "I'm tired of listening to rubbish". Now lemme explain, I love music, like I really love music, I have so many songs on My phone from oldies to latest tracks and as such I think it's only expected that with time, My music taste should evolve.  I'm a fan of creativity, thinking outside the box and talent. These days everyone is a musician, as long as you've for the right backing and some street sw

There has been speculations as to Why the Singer left the famous band, some citing stress factors and lack of time spent with Family and loved ones due to right schedules placed by the bands management team. But recent reports also suggest that Zayn might have left the band because of Fiancee Perrre Edwards. In a recent interview Liam Payne revealed that "sometimes you just have to move on because you are no longer enjoying what you are doing as much as you used to". He added "Zayn wwnted to spend time with his Family and fiancee and That's Cool with us". I think it's pretty normal when artists decide to take breaks and just actually relax and spend time with their families and loved ones, it's highly recommended  and encouraged,  but in the case of Zayn, if He really wanted to do just that,  He shouldn't have quit the band, I mean he's taken breaks over the past, so Why should this be different and I guess that brings the real question &qu

I think its not news now that Nina Dobrev who plays Elena on the hit TV show The Vampire Diaries has quit the show but many don't really know why she did it. Fans all over the world where shocked when it was announced that she has left the cast and there were speculations as to why she did it, some citing the fact that her complicated relationship with ex boyfriend who plays her love interest in the series and who got married sometime this month made things uneasy for her. In a recent interview Julie Plec ( the co creator of the show)  actually stated the reason why she left. she says; “She was just looking forward to moving on with no hard feelings and no drama." “This is taking the personal out of it completely, from a storytelling point of view it’s a great challenge. As writers in the room we’re finding it very rejuvenating. Just on a strictly creative exercise level,” she added.   "Nina had said earlier this year that she wanted to be done and we
