PRINCE MICHEAL JACKSON TO MAKE HIS FIRST SOLO APPEARANCE.

Son of the late king of pop Michael Jackson, Prince Michael Jackson, will be making his first appearance without a family escort on November 10th.

Although Jackson will be making his first appearance without a Jackson clan rep, he won’t be entirely alone. The 14-year-old will be on hand for the auction of handwritten lyrics to his father’s hit “Bad” at a charity auction in the late fall. The auction- in Berlin, the site of the elder Jackson’s infamous 2005 baby-dangling stunt- will benefit the Tribute to Bambi foundation, a German charity dedicated to assisting needy children.

As for the event details, a spokesman for the shindig says Prince Michael will be integrated, and that the popstar’s son “will walk the red carpet and present the manuscript on stage surrounded by children.” Another source commented on Prince Michael’s first real foray away from the Jackson fam:

“He won’t be traveling alone… but he won’t have any family members with him.”

The younger Jackson and his siblings Paris and Blanket were notoriously close and even protective of their famous dad, and the three were understandably grief stricken when Jackson passed away somewhat suddenly in 2009. At the memorial for the star, daughter Paris sobbed:

“Ever since I was born, Daddy has been the best father you could ever imagine … I just wanted to say I love him … so much.”

The eldest Jackson child, Prince Michael is expected to testify against his father’s personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, at his manslaughter trial. One source close to the family said:

“Both the DA’s office and his relatives believe Prince Michael’s evidence is crucial to the case against Dr Murray and could even blow his entire defense out of the water.”

LAGOS: Court nullifies Lastma's power to fine offenders.

Federal High Court in Lagos has voided some sections of the law establishing the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA).

Justice Okon Abang, in a judgment, declared that Sections 9, 11, 12 and 13 of the law establishing  LASTMA is unconstitutional and of no effect on the grounds that it contravenes Section 36 of the Constitution, which guarantee every citizen’s right to fair hearing.

The court upheld LASTMA’s power to arrest traffic offenders, but held that it lacks the powers to impose fine on such offenders. It added that the power to impose fine on anybody who contravenes an existing law resides only with the court.

The court  held that the imposition of fine on any traffic offender by LASTMA amounted to being a judge in its own cause.

“Section 9, 11, 12, and 13 of the law establishing LASTMA is unconstitutional. It is against the spirit of the Section 36 of the Constitution, which gives right of fair hearing to every Nigerian. Moreover, that would amount to being a judge in your own cause,” the court held.

It awarded N500,000 damages against LASTMA.

A Lagos  resident, Jonathan Odutola, whose car was impounded in March and compelled to pay a fine instituted the suit.

He said his car developed some mechanical problems on the Third Mainland Bridge and stopped, and that in an effort to ensure that the car did not obstruct traffic, he immediately called a towing-van which towed the vehicle completely out of the road

Man Found Dead,Half way in a Grave.

An unidentified man, in his thirties, was found dead on Sunday, at a grave site, while apparently attempting to rob a corpse in Kazaure, Jigawa State. 

The man was said to be attempting to exhume the corpse, which had been buried earlier on Sunday morning, in an effort to steal some valuables said to have been buried with it.

While making the attempt, the loose earth collapsed, trapping the man as shown in the picture. He died on the spot.

He was found, hours later, dead, but onlookers said it appeared that he had struggled to free himself from the grave site, but could not.

From the injuries sustained on his head, it was apparent that he had hit his head on an object in the grave which, perhaps, made him unable to free himself.

Also, sympathisers said he might have been knocked unconscious, and so could not have been able to shout for help.

Nigerian Tribune investigations could not, however, ascertain how he was related to the corpse, or how he knew what valuables had been buried with it, as his corpse was yet to be claimed at the time of filing this report.

I Saw Jesus Twice in my Bed Room- Rev Uma Ukpai

Founder of Uma Ukpai Evangelistic Association Incorporated, Reverend Dr. Uma Ukpai, spoke  about how God made him perform his first miracle at the age of 10 and sundry issues affecting the polity and Christendom.

We have heard much about the many wonderful things, especially healings that God has been using you as a vessel to perform for the benefit of humanity. Who really are you?

Well, I am just an ordinary man who was fortunate to meet Christ at the age of 10 and it was not an ordinary meeting as it was dramatic in the sense that soon after a mad man came to our school and sent everybody out. I then heard God say to me that “you also can sack him”, and so I commanded him. His name was Deko and the incident took place in Udohi, Ukana County Council School and the mad man rolled out of the school.

This experience frightened me, just like it frightened others; the story began to circulate and this was in 1958 and it is still circulating. We have seen God healed different kinds of people but it was not me that carried out those miracles as I was only an instrument in God’s hands. Even the miracles confused and baffled me just as it baffled all other observers and so, I would not say that it was me that did it but I would say that it was God. I have seen God do what I considered to be impossible and up till now, my mind would prick me to ask if or not it was in a trance or it was real.

Ordinarily, they don’t add up but I have had to keep quiet and say to myself that if it is of God, He would do another type and He has done various kinds of miracles over the years which are spread across the world. In our crusade in Umuahia, God told me the very first day of the Great Umuahia for Christ Crusade that 15 cripples would walk. I have never seen such number walked before. Even Christians from my hometown came to me and told me that if I was not sure that this would happen, then, I should not come to the crusade ground because the people would be coming to the place with their stones and Bibles. But everything happened completely and I was struck with fear.

While speaking in Abiriba, where you can call my home, God told me to ask them to bring every blind person they knew and that without prayers, those that would see, would see and people brought the blind from all over the Local Governments and out of 18 blind people brought there that day, 17 people confessed that they saw without prayers. My uncle who was a pastor asked me what this was, because, according to him, miracles could not happen without prayers and I told him.

Solomon Okoduwa: "Why Nigerians were Massacred in Libya

TerryG, the 'Akpako' master is at it again, this time he's opted for a multi coloured hairstyle which he's called 'Swagalazito'. Obviously when you're a celebrity you tend to get away with a lot, hence we have no right to fault or tease him for this ridiculous hairstyle.

 Now my problem is the 'Lagos copycats', I'm seriously hoping they don't adopt this as a new hair trend because I certainly don't want to walk the streets of Lagos only to see our boys in multi coloured braids, that'll be so wrong in many ways.

Basket Mouth Buys Cherokee Jeep.

One of Naija’s finest comedians, Basket mouth indeed loves automobiles. The comedian, who already has fleet of cars in his Lekki home, added another one on Sunday, 18th of September.

Without wasting time, Basket took delivery of his new ride, a 2008 Cherokee Jeep from the seller, with him taking few pictures in between with neighbours who came out to show him love. But the guy disappointed some of his fans when he refused to settle some of them who asked him for little cash. He says, ‘ha sorry, I no hold money’. Here’s wishing him a safe ride with it, good times are surely here again.

Mc Loph Aged 38, was the only son of his mother, while his elder sister chinwe was the only daughter. Making them just two, as their father has longed passed away. Loph which means lord of pure hip hop, hit the limelight with his second album, hands up, which had his hit song, Osondi Owendi.

Fast rising musician, Obiajuru Nwozo popularly known has Mc Loph died at Benin/Ore road alongside his fiancée, on their way to Anambra State in preparation for their traditional marriage slated for September 17^th. Mc Loph was the driver of his Ford Durango SUV which he bought few weeks back. According to a source, he lost control of the jeep, skidded and somersaulted into a ditch, killing himself, his elder sister, chinwe and his fiancee.

Amongst his dreams that were cut short was his dream of becoming a married man. And also a song he already completed with Faze, I know what girls want, with which the video would have been directed by Patrick Ellis if he was still alive anytime soon.

May the Lord comfort his mother at this trying time of hers. Losing her only two children at the same time?  And May the souls of the departed find eternal rest in the Lord.

Chocolate City's Ice Prince would launch is debut album titled E.L.I, an acronym for 'Everybody Loves Ice Prince' on the 9th of October 2011. Chocolate city would be partnering with Conceptshot Nigeria and Pearl Entertainment for the concert at Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island, Lagos.
Ice Prince had earlier released two singles off the E.L.I. album – “Oleku” and “Superstar” which won him multiple awards. The two songs have worldwide appeal evidenced by constant high demand for Iceprince to perform them at shows across the continents. Both songs have also been reported to have the highest remixes and downloads in the year of release. E.L.I. has said to be a compilation of tracks that will further portray Iceprince as a multi-talented hip-hop artiste.
There would be support performances from artistes featured on the album. As a part of the media build up to the event, Ice Prince will make a number of appearances at the hottest spots in Lagos and also have a television and radio tour.

Producer Samklef set to tie the knot in October.

The ace producer/artiste Samklef is indeed having a good year, after coming from many years in the background to contribute to the success of the year’s bestselling album from Wizkid’s Superstar, to dropping his own widely-acclaimed album Nonilizing, and winning the award for best producer at City People Awards ’11 and most recently, the NEAs which held in the United States; he is now reportedly heading to the altar.
We have been informed that he went for 'introduction' to the girl's parents and Yvonne is his long term girlfriend, an undergraduate in the University of Lagos. The introduction took place two weeks before he left for the NEAs in the States. The wedding would take place at a date in October.
Also, the producer was quoted in an interview in one of the national dailies over the weekend as consenting to a question which suggested that he recently got married. Samklef's talk of a secret marriage is on the heels of rumours of Wizkid fathering a lovechild and Terry G having a secret wedding.
Efforts to get an official statement from his camp proved abortive as his publicist Skillz YBRL maintained he had no comments on the matter at the moment.

Boko Haram: Gunmen kill the man Obasanjo met in Maiduguri over his welcome offered by him to Obaanjo.

Ex president Obasanjo

Late Fugu Babakura

So on Thursday Sept 15th, ex-president Obasanjo paid a very private visit to the family of slain Boko Haram leader/founder, Mohammed Yusuf, in Maiduguri, where he begged the family to give peace a chance and forgive those who killed their leader.

The man Obasanjo met with was Mohammed Yusuf's brother-in-law, 48year old Babakura Fuggu. Just two days after the meeting, Fuggu was gunned down at his Borno state residence, same venue of the meeting with Obasanjo.

A lone gun man, reportedly in traditional Fulani flowing garb, suspected to be a member of Boko Haram, entered Fuggu's residence at about 1.20pm yesterday afternoon and shot him to death.

The police in Maiduguri say the killing was most likely in protest of Obasanjo's visit to the Yusufs. No one has been arrested yet.
