Why we will not go violent over entitlements of ex-Biafra soldiers – Colonel Ossa

Forty-three years after the Nigerian civil war, respite is yet to come the way of soldiers who fought on the side of Biafra.
The soldiers told DailyPost that they were still licking their wounds, as they are left in the cold without their benefits released to them, stressing that in spite of the “No Victor, No Vanquished” policy of the Federal Government after the war, they were neither integrated into the Nigerian Army nor paid their pensions.
Worried by this development, some of the ex-soldiers led by one Victor Onah, met in Enugu recently, where they resolved to embark on a street protest in Abuja if the Federal Government refused to release their entitlements.
“We are dying every day of hunger, poverty, disease, frustration and abandonment and we have resolved and refused to accept the government’s further abuse of our human rights, abandonment and non-payment of our entitlements”, the group had stated.
However, speaking to DailyPost in Enugu on Tuesday, the National Coordinator of the War Veterans Social Welfare Association, WVSWA, Colonel Emmanuel Osita Ossai, said the association would continue to maintain its non-violent stand on the matter.
He maintained that although they were aggrieved by the neglect of the ex-soldiers by the Federal Government, his leadership was not in support of the planned protest in Abuja over the non-payment of the entitlements.

Young Madonna was raped at knifepoint

New York City wasn’t kind to Madonna before she became a pop icon, the star revealed in a frank essay in which she also discussed being raped at knifepoint.
In the Oct. 4 essay titled “Truth or Dare,” the 55-year-old wrote in Harper’s Bazaar magazine about her life of challenging society’s conventions, motherhood, exploring her spirituality and the rise of her career.
As a nonconformist high school student in a Midwestern suburb, she wrote that resisted shaving her armpits and legs and came to be considered a “real man repeller.”
She came to New York to pursue her goal of being an artist, but the city gave her a harsh welcome.
“New York wasn’t everything I thought it would be,” she wrote. “It did not welcome me with open arms. The first year, I was held up at gunpoint. Raped on the roof of a building I was dragged up to with a knife in my back, and had my apartment broken into three times. I don’t know why; I had nothing of value after they took my radio the first time.”
Madonna had previously revealed the rape in a 1995 interview with New Musical Express, a London publication. In the Bazaar essay, she wrote that New York both inspired her and scared her, in ways for which she wasn’t prepared.

Obey, MI, Yemi Sax dazzle Lagos as Glo Evergreen Series takes off

The setting of the show was regal. Only few guests could resist the allure of watching a fusion of different generations of music. With a saxophonist, a rapper and an iconic juju musician billed to thrill guests, many were positively anxious to see what such a premium assemblage would deliver in such an alluring ambience.

Indeed, the performers did not disappoint the ‎guests who looked every inch delectable in their gorgeous attires. The concert paraded the legend, Commander Ebenezer Obey and the duo of talented M.I Abaga and Yemi Sax.

First to mount the stage was the Grand Commander, Chief Ebenezer Obey.  He started the evening with a song that paid tribute to God titled Iba lo ye kase and gave the audience the rare privilege of requesting for any of his favourite songs which he promptly rendered to their delight.  Without betraying the slightest sign of old age, Obey took total control of the stage right from the first string of the guitar cord.  Moved by the classic rendition,  significant members of the audience could not hold the urge to dance.

As he rendered his timeless and enduring evergreen songs, it was all too evident, how he has been able to hold Nigeria and, indeed, the world spellbound with his music over the years.

The evangelist also took time out to spice up his performance with some anecdotes.

Dreadlocked Yemi Sax, garbed in a white caftan was the next to thrill the audience with his dexterity on the saxophone.  He reeled out tunes of the “old school” with the backing tracks by the D.J. to the delight of the audience.

MI was at his vintage best that night as he dished out hits of contemporary flavor.  The concert audience, an admixture of different generations, brought together by their love for music, danced and sang along  with Mr Incredible who mesmerised all with his stagecraft.

By the time MI left the stage, guests were already in another realm of musical bliss.

The highpoint of the event was the collaboration by Chief Obey and the two younger artistes, M.I. and Yemi Sax whom Obey described as his children.

‎They performed together to the immense admiration of the crowd. Obey led the way with two of his evergreen tracks Ore mi e se pelepele and Olomi gbo temi with M.I. emblazoning his signature into the two songs. Yemi Sax ‎also jazzed up the tunes with his saxophone.  Their performances drew spontaneous burst of applause.

African China says he has 168 children

It’s either the PM New reporter that did the interview didn’t hear right, or African China was just messing with him. Below is what PM News is reporting…
This may sound incredible but popular music artiste, Chinagorom Onuoha, better known as African China, insists he had 168 kids from different women before he got married.
Speaking with P.M.News Sunday in Festac Town, Lagos, Onuoha disclosed that he is not a sex-freak but he was unable to turn down sexual advances from his teeming female fans.
Onuoha, who sometime ago was involved in a sex scandal in the UK, said he decided to accept the pregnancies because he did not want the ladies to abort the pregnancies.
“It is not that I enjoy running after the opposite sex, but as a star, I always find them around me and there’s no way I can just chase them away. As a matter of fact, I had an option of telling the ladies to abort the pregnancies but I know the Bible is against such.”
