Though a toxic report is expected to be released in few weeks but Los Angeles County Coroner officials however confirmed that since there was no enough water in the late Whitney Houston’s lungs, it would be unsafe to conclude that she died from drowning.
Therefore, she might have died as a result of the combination of prescription drugs mixed with alcohol.
TMZ learnt from that law enforcement agents that pills found in the Beverly Hills hotel room where she died include ibuprofen (painkiller), Xanax (anti-depressant), Midol (for menstrual cramps), amoxicillin (for treating bacterial infections as she was said to have been suffering from a sore throat).
‘She may have died before she submerged herself into the bath tub filled with water’. They said.
NELSON MANDELA'S IMAGE TO APPEAR ON SOUTH AFRICAN BANK NOTES
In a move to honour the first black President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela for his role in the fight against apartheid in South Africa, incumbent South African President, Jacob Zuma has announced that all South African bank notes by end of the year will carry the image of the ex President.
In his announcement which also coincides with the 22nd anniversary of the release of the Nobel Laureate from prison, Zuma said that, “It is a befitting tribute to a man who became a symbol of this country’s struggle for freedom, human rights and democracy”.
“With this humble gesture, we are expressing our deep gratitude as the South African people, to a life spent in service of the people of this country and in the cause of humanity worldwide.”
RADIO HIT SHOW: EPISODE 25: GOLDIE GETS EARLY VALENTINE GIFT
Hello folks!
One strong controversy in the music
industry (especially rap music) is artistes commercialising their music to sell records. I find this very sensitive, cause I am a business man
and a real music lover so I understand.
Nonetheless like most things in life, the key is balance and trying to understand the complex and unsatisfied mind of the fans…kinda like having a hot babe…
This week’s episode
promises to show a tiny bit of how people really feel about these new songs;
1) Goldie – Say My Name
2) Omawumi feat. Flavour – Bottom Belle
3) El Prince – Oh Nana
4) Maytronomy – Wetin You
Dey Feel Like
5) Bibi – In My Sights

HAVE WOLE SOYINKA'S BOOKS BEEN BANNED FROM OLUSEGUN OBASANJO'S PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY??
An oversight or intentional decision? According to a recent investigation made by Entertainment 24/7, books by renowned writer and Nobel Laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka are absent on the shelves of Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo’s Presidential library, Abeokuta, Ogun State.
Whereas books of other famous Nigerian authors/writers like Chimamanda Adichie, Chinua Achebe are conspicuously displayed.
A staff of the library who pleaded anonymity said since the ex President never liked the writer as shown in his write-ups, interviews and many more his books cannot grace the shelf, another staff said, “his books were not stocked hence cannot be displayed by the Library, we do not go out to stock books here with the intention of ignoring any writer/author. It must have been an oversight”. His name is also absent in the library’s hall of fame.
