Tonto Dike Misses First Public Performance
| Tonto Dike |
Controversial actress, Tonto Dike once again confirmed her reputation for surprises as she failed to show up at the BON awards in Lagos over the weekend.
Dikeh was announced to be on the performance list alongside Kennis Music act, Capital FEMI, a gesture most of her fans thought would be her chance to further stamp her feet as not only a singer but a performer but alas, the twenty-seven year-old was nowhere close to the venue all through the event.
We put a call through to the organisers of the event but are yet to get a response to our enquiries.
Perhaps, the POKO queen is not ready to say HI to her fans just yet?
Actress Nkiru Sylvanus loses her appointment as special assistant to Imo State Gov
I heard from very reliable sources that actress Nkiru Sylvanus has lost her appointment as the special assistant to governor Rochas Okorocha on Lagos Matters. Yes, there's a position like that! :-)
The Abia state born actress had been battling several people since her appointment last year, who felt she didn't deserve the position as a non-Imo state indigene and also because they felt the appointment was meaningless and unnecessary as they didn't understand her job specification.
They also felt she got the appointment because of her 'friendship' with the governor and not because she knew anything about running a public office. These people worked tirelessly to get her out of government house, and if what I'm hearing is correct, they've succeeded.

A Man Can Cheat; But If My Woman Cheat On Me She's Going –The Game
Ladies do you agree with this?
"Cheating should be legalized. It would make it easier for women. The truth is every man cheats. Fat men, skinny men, basketball player, guy who can’t play, nerds, smart guy, it doesn’t matter. A woman is better off assuming exactly what I said.
"You’ll be better off that way.... But I would never understand if a woman cheats. You know the balance. It would be over with. That’s how it goes."

Why I invited Aki, Paw Paw to meet flood victims – Uduaghan
![]() |
| Aki and Paw Paw visiting one of the camp in Delta state |
DELTA State governor, Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan, said Monday, that he invited popular Nollywood actors, Chinedu Ikedieze and Osita Iheme, popularly known as Aki and Paw Paw, to visit flood victims in the state as motivational speakers to alleviate the pains of the internally displaced persons.
Aki and Paw Paw were first noticed by some persons at the inauguration of the 12-man committee on the management of Federal Government fund released to the state over the flood disaster and the Post-Flooding Rehabilitation of Victims, headed by a retired Supreme Court Judge, Justice Francis Tabai, at Government House, Asaba, by Governor Uduaghan.
They were conspicuous in their attire and size and that attracted the crowd, which went hysterical.
Governor Uduaghan, who painted a sorrowful picture of the pains the internally displaced persons, IDPs, were going through, having been sacked from their homes by flood, said everybody who knew how to ease pains should help to ease the pains of the victims.
The governor said he decided to invite Aki and Paw Paw after he visited the Institute of Continuing Education, ICE, flood victims’ camp at about 11.00 pm on a certain day and discovered that the IDPs, who were watching a Nollywood movie, were so engrossed that they barely gave him attention when he walked in.
Uduaghan said: “As I walked in, half of the population were watching television; you know we provided a giant television for them.
“I tried to attract their attention. Some looked at me and greeted me, but they turned to continue watching the television. When I looked at the television, I saw it was Aki, Paw Paw and Ibu that they were watching.
“You see, because they were watching Aki, Paw Paw and Ibu, they forgot their pains. For them, these Nollywood actors were helping them to ease their pains. That was why I invited them to go to the different camps as motivational speakers because the victims require a lot of motivation, while they are preparing to go back home.”
The governor observed that some of the victims, indeed, required psychological support, adding that he was optimistic that Aki and Paw Paw would provide it for them.
“That is why they are here as motivational speakers. I believe that the few minutes they will spend will ease the pains of our IDPs. Those who have ability to ease those in pains, please help, it is not about food alone for the victims – that will not ease their pains.”

stand unaided for a few minutes for the first time since the illness
started late last year.

Mercy Johnson is about seven months pregnant but that hasn't slowed her
down one bit as she's said to be moving from one movie location to
another. What movie producers and marketers now do is write scripts that
suit her condition - that of a pregnant woman.

![]() |
| Tonto Dikeh |
To every hardened critic and those that think she will be a flash in the pan, Tonto Dikeh has a message for you all: There is no stopping her. In an exclusive interview with Stella Dimok-Korkus, Tonto speaks extensively about her music career and how she plans to build on from her first two singles:
What prompted you into singing?
I love music and I wanted to do my own thing, to contribute my own music.
You got monstrous negative response to both singles. How did feel with all the attacks?
I listened to my songs over and over again and I told myself I did well. In all I see only the positivity in it,I made History. Peoples opinion of how my music was has further strengthened my belief that dreams die when you let the next man’s opinion get to you and I am using now to pass a message to everyone out there, if you can just do it. Don’t let anyone’s opinion kill whatever dream you have or try to stop you from taking the next step.
You tweeted that you were not giving up. Does that mean you will become actively involved in music?
I love my acting career and I don’t see myself jumping into full time music. I am however shooting the musical video of my songs,I will not let the hating stop me.
You released your song on Wednesday October 17, 2012 and two days later despite the negativity your song had hit 5.2 million download on the internet. How do you feel?
The most unanticipated and hated song became the most talked about,most controversial,most downloaded and of course the most listened song.I feel great Stella, no regrets.!
We look forward to the musical videos.till then I am sure comedians will soon add
Your song jokes to their shows.
Hopefully. Thank you and here’s a loud shout out and thank you to everyone who stood up for me.

Jim Iyke Opens Up On Alleged 11-Year-Old UK Love Child
Few days ago, the internet was abuzz with news involving Nollywood 'bad boy' actor, Jim Iyke and a UK-based lover named Chantelle Nkechi Benson. It was reported that some years ago, Jim Iyke and Chantelle reportedly had a romantic affair while the latter was an Abia
State University undergraduate. Now, the lady is presently a barrister in the UK.
The report claimed that Chantelle has an 11 years old child for the actor which he (Jim) was never aware of until recently.
However, Jim was reported to have only spoken with child, who is a boy named Mario, on the phone but is yet to meet him.
Reacting to the story, Jim Iyke, through his publicist, Mitch Ngaman, said the talented actor is still trying to get to the root of the matter just because of the innocent boy involved.
This was made known through a statement made available to the media on the matter. The unedited statement reads;
"Jim Iyke is aware of the viral story currently making the headlines and wishes to state that this is not the first time that issues of this nature have arisen. Friends and fans who follow his activities closely will recall a number of occasions in the past when baseless claims of paternity and even marriage were made.
"Nonetheless, as a responsible man, he is always disposed to verify any such development(s) brought to his attention and when any satisfactory outcome has been ascertained, the general public will be duly informed without ambiguity. The only specifics at the present time is that at the age of 22yrs-23yrs old he dated for a brief period the lady at the center of the story who subsequently left Nigeria for the UK.
"There had been no contact between them ever since and by implication no linkling of the existence of a living product of that encounter. Since this is more about an innocent child than the star himself we advise caution and respect for privacy.
MITCH NGAMAN
Media Manager."
Will Jim Iyke's investigation unearth more facts? Many await
