TIMAYA ACQUIRES BRAND NEW BENTLEY CAR

Timaya 

Self-acclaimed Egberi papa 1 of Bayelsa, Enetimi Odom, popularly called Timaya just got himself a brand new Bentley car, 2009 model.
The 35year-old’plantain boy’ is not doing bad at all. At least he has one of the highest selling albums and so with commensurate pay packets, he should be able to live a ‘large’ life.
The car’s worth is between £79,000-£84,000.

Nigerian celebrities aint taking it easy o. From range rover jeeps, Rolls Royce (sorry no musician has bought one) to other exorbitant rides. Na wa oo. This is another bout of oppression.

PHOTO OF THE DAY: KIM KARDASHIAN FLAUNTS WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE GYM BAG

The issue is not that 31 year-old model, Kim Kardashian was spotted in a gym, the big deal is rather than keep her effects in a regular bag, the reality-star cum fashion mogul dumped them in a black Hermes Birkins bag, valued between $15,000 and $20,000.
In September 2010, she and her mother Kris travelled to Paris and spent over $100,000 on 7 Hermes bags including a rare crocodile skin version worth over $30,000.

Fashionista and ambassador, Victoria Beckham is another celebrity who is a fan of the brand. Infact, she is reported to own a collection of over 100 of the coveted bags worth an estimate £1.5 million ($2.4 million).

Na wa oo. This is oppression!! She’s so unapologetic about it.lol

Speaking briefly after AC milan’s victory over Arsenal, Sweden international, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has urged Robin van Persie to leave Arsenal inorder to win more trophies. He maintained that the 28 year-old will make much impact if he transfers to another club, “For sure, Van Persie will do a fantastic job wherever he goes, and he will be a big player for whichever team he joins. But of course, if your team doesn’t win for a couple of years, inside yourself you still want to win. And if you don’t want that then I will never have you on my team, trust me!”
And on the game which saw him scoring a penalty and assisting two more goals, the lanky footballer said “it wasn’t easy, everybody says it was easy because it was 4-0. Afterwards people said they hadn’t expected it to be so easy, but if you go through the game it wasn’t easy even if it was 4-0”. He claimed

SAHARA TV PLACES D'BANJ ON A HOT SEAT

Foremost act, D’banj granted an interview on Sahara TV; he spoke at length on so many issues including his view on the last fuel subsidy removal protest. Enjoy:
Chika: Did you ever dream of being this big in music?
D’banj: I dreamt about this…(Jokes: I’ve a dream!) God is using us to take our message across from Africa to here.
Chika: You are the face of African Pop music don’t you feel a lot of pressure?
D’banj: Yes a lot of pressure but I have nothing to be scared of. I have much responsibility.
Chika: There are rumors that you are dating Genevieve Nnaji how true is that?
D’banj: No! We are not dating.
Chika: What is your status?
D’banj: I’m very single. I like Rihanna, I’m interested in her.
Chika: Will you Americanize your music now that you are working mostly in America…..(D’banj cuts in)
D’banj: What do you mean by Americanize?
Chika: I mean you use a lot of pidgin and yoruba in your music will you still do that?
D’banj: Yes I’ll, did you hear scapegoat? fall in love or oliver twist? I do music depending on the message and who I want it to suite.
Chika: So will you maintain the identity?
D’banj: I think American music is universal so I’ve a lot of work to do.
Chika: Ok, now on your interview with the President of Nigeria, there are talks that you collected money from him to sing and interview him.
D’banj: I didn’t collect money from the President. It wasn’t an interview it was a request, watch the interview I asked the President and I can remember the statements “What are your plans for the Nigerian youth?” because I dedicated a track to him so I wanted the people to know why I said I was going to vote for him, I wanted them to know his plans.
⁠⁠
Chika: We understand you run a foundation and you were appointed as the United Nations youth ambassador for peace, with your position what are your responsibilities and what have you done with you position?
D’banj: I have much responsibility. I represent Africa, I represent Nigeria…do your research.
Chika: What was your take on the Occupy Nigeria and the fuel subsidy removal?
D’banj: 1st of all, lets take a minute silence for those who lost their lives during this period
Chika: Ok D’banj we really appreciate that, so carry on.
D’banj: I did not know anything that was happening [in Nigeria during protests] because I was working on my album in the UK.
Chika: But there was a protest in London why didn’t you participate?
D’banj: I didn’t know anything that was happening in London about the feul protest because I was working… I am not a politician! And everyone that knows me well knows I don’t like cold, so I couldn’t go outside.
Chika: So what do you have to say?
D’banj: I don’t have anything to say, I wasn’t in the country when it was happening.
Chika: But I wasn’t in the country also.
D’banj: I’ve told you I don’t want to say anything about that topic, I don’t say what I don’t know anything about, If you know me very well I speak about what I know. I will not speak on something that I don’t know about. You will not get me to speak about what I don’t know. I wish my publicist told me that this was a political interview… (Chika cuts in)
Chika: So who operates your twitter handle?
D’banj: I operate it but I’m not always online, I’m on twitter when I want to pass an information not when you want me to.
Chika: There has been increase in poverty in Nigeria what do you have to say about this?
D’banj:  Yes I know, but poverty has always been in Nigeria. Let us focus on what we have,why are you hammering on negativity? I’ll speak from the angle that I know well which is the entertainment, that is what I know we can export, we should invest our talents to escape from poverty. I’ve a concert tomorrow, I need to practice and prepare well so I can represent Africa well.
Chika: Thank you very much D’banj. We appreciate the time you spent with us, we wish you all the best in your concert tomorrow.

Now, this interview has sparked off and is still sparking off so many reactions on social media; notably facebook and twitter.
Personally, this is not-too impressive. As the voice of the Nigerian youth (as people claim), too whom much is given much is expected, some answers were better left unspoken. How would you say you weren’t aware of the occupy Nigeria/London protests?
What’s your opinion?
