SUPERMOM EPISODE EIGHT FEATURES FUJI MAESTRO OBESERE& RENOWNED DJ HUMILITY'S MUMS
The self-acclaimed Paramount King of Fuji, Abass Akande Obesere has sensationally revealed that but for his mother’s relentless support and unceasing prayers; he would have joined the long list of loonies roaming the streets of Lagos.
Speaking in the edition of the Supermom Celebrity reality television show that would be broadcast this weekend, the Ibadan, Oyo State born singer says his love for music and peer influence led him into taking Indian hemp at an early age. “I was very young when I started taking Indian hemp but it wasn’t good for my system because anytime I took it, I would just sleep off for about five to six hours.
Of course, it became very worrisome for my mother who went everywhere and did everything in order for me to stop but she never gave up on me,” he recalls.
Corroborating this revelation, Obesere’s mother, Taibat Omobonike Akande, said at that time, “I and my husband wanted him to be well educated and have a good career but he chose music and started moving with bad boys who taught him how to smoke Indian hemp.
Things were so bad that after taking it, I would be the one to go and pick him up where he would have slept off. At a point, I had to consult Islamic clerics to help me pray for him so he wouldn’t bring shame to the family.” With tears lining her eyes, she also recalled all the Fuji music star put the family through in his bid to become a musician.
“Things got so bad that I had to take him to learn electronics when he was becoming an embarrassment to the family but he left there after some time. There was nothing I could do, other than to just keep praying for him to turn out good. I’m grateful to God today that he is a celebrated Nigerian musician today, a musician that brings joy to many homes and the hearts of many.”
And mother and child embraced as tears streamed down their eyes, revealing that beneath the facade of his hyperactive stage presence, Obesere is indeed soft at heart. Holding back further tears, Obesere says, “If not for my mother, I would have gone insane and for that reason, I cannot forget her or pay her back for helping to put my life back on track when everybody had already given up on me. It was her prayers that have sustained me till now.”
Speaking in the same episode, Benedict Afagwu, otherwise known as DJ Humility, one of Nigeria’s most prominent Disc Jockeys, who hails from Delta State, grew up as a barrack boy, his dad being a police officer. Despite the disciplined air that pervades the barracks, it is known to be a fertile ground for wayward kids.
Recalling the bulky DJ’s childhood days, his mother, Janet Afagwu, says the itinerant nature of the patriarch’s job left the six kids in her care. “He is my first child and I tried to bring my children up in the way of the lord but Ben was especially stubborn. He was a thorn in my flesh. There was nothing he didn’t do because of his independent nature.
Things got worse when his father and I had to fend for the family all alone with no support from any quarter. Ben was so stubborn that he ran away from home to be a conductor. While trying to deal with that, he then became an ‘Alabaru’ (Carrier) in the market. This really did hurt as he was the first child and his younger ones were looking up to him.”But thank God, she says, he has turned out well.
"I WILL GO BACK TO ARSENAL"- HENRY THIERRY
In an interview with skysports.com, the player whose career at the club produced a total of 226 goals in 369 appearances may return either as a player or coach; but he's yet to table this with Arsene Wenger.
"I would like to go back to England with Arsenal for sure. I wasn't planning to go back to play last season. It was only because Gervinho and (Marouane) Chamakh went to the African Nations Cup.
He continued, "I was there to train and they asked me if I wanted to play. Who knows what might happen in the future? I've not yet spoken to Arsene about it so I don't know what capacity I could go back in.
Coaching does interest me but I don't know what my talent is going to be after I have finished my career. But I will go back to Arsenal." He explained.
It would be recalled that the ex Barcelona player returned to the Emirates last year scoring two goals. He has 18 months left on his contract with New York Red Bulls.
ALTAR BOUND? KANYE WEST HIRES PRIVATE JEWELER TO MAKE KIM KARDASHIAN'S ENGAGEMENT RING
To show how serious he is, the 35 year-old rapper has engaged the services of a private jeweler to make an
engagement ring for the reality show star.
The ring according to radaronline will be made from diamonds and rubies from his late mom Dondas personal jewelry collection.
Kanye's closest pals are somehow mad at him, why would he make use of his late mother's prized possessions? They believe the 31year-old model will keep the ring when things fall apart.
So much hatred for kim?
Anyways, the singer is bent on having his wedding at Chicago, where he grew up or Oklahoma where his mother was buried.
************
Another fairytale wedding in the offing? Dear Kim,
I pray this lasts for at least 40 years.
Yours sincerely
A prayer warrior

THE TEARS OF AN EMOTIONAL ARSENAL FAN
I won't cry when you are gone I'm used to the hurt. Just like the other ones i've been simple enough to allow be the source of my joy, you have began to talk about how fantastic some of others like me are. Just like a few of them, at the very moment that our union began to make you appear like you are super human. The trend is so exact i can predict what will happen next, just at the time it looked like it was going to be more than just a union you begin to speak of moving on, i've handed my heart out and have handled walkaways. To be honest I wont even be surprised at yours. Just like a couple of them you have pulled out of our annual vacation claiming you need rest, if not for the fact that the trend looks so exact I would have asked that you bear with me another year but to be honest yet again, I know this cycle and imma not gonna try to stop the wheel. I'd rather make myself happy by the fact that my prediction of the wheel comes through than have you here half hearted. Yes you say other guys throw
more of the money around but you knew me even before you became this important in my life. You know how much of investment i've been through and you see its all yielding well. You can agree well that with my present limited resources you are quite a priority; apart from 'paying the bills'. Its just that you have failed to see yourself as a part of me. I see you as an end and you see me as a means. Shaking my head now I know such is life. And need I remind you others did exactly the same. Some of them moved on and I even got better, to be honest many of them have not had it as good as when we were together, just a few of them have been able to quite justify their move on, i remember clearly te one that was home sick. I told myself then that my next love will be to a local but you still got me convinced. You are not homesick; its either you are sick or our relationship has a fever. Whitney houston will be proud of me here as i say i hope life treats u well and i hope you get all you've always wished for, but to be honest do i wish you trophies? Robin Van Persie when you move on honestly I would just feel good that i predicted right again.Believe it or not its just the tears of an emotional Arsenal fan.
