Benin City’s Ritual Market - A MUST READ




Relics of normal life in time past are much sought after in sacrificial preparations. Some of these objects and materials, to the uninitiated, are very hard to come by.

To the uninitiated, seeing a tortoise could probably be at the zoo, but for those who indulge in sacrificial practices, they know where exactly to go, they know the right market and they know the right people to call on. The traditional Oliha and Ekiosa markets in Benin City are the right places to go if one needs those rare animals, native chalks, coins and several other materials which have spent over two hundred years.

You Can't Go Anywhere! Chocolate City Says Brymo Must Pay Their Money



The sensational 'porting' of Brymo, the ARA crooner, from Chocolate City is set to be the latest controversy in the entertainment in Nigeria. The guy said he's moving on but the record label said no way! 
 
Brymo even confirmed his exit from Chocolate city on Twitter but an inside source told OluFamous.Com the singer can't go anywhere. He must deliver the money that was spent on him...

My source said Brymo must deliver two solid albums in the next three years for Chocolate City otherwise he will be slammed with a heavy law suit with would cost a lot as a 'struggling' artiste.
 
The reason for their quarrel leading to his decision to dump the record label is still been kept under the raps but My source said it has to do with money. He wanted more money but he has not justified it.

See Bromy's Tweet below confirming he has left Chocolate City:

Bombs explode in northeastern Nigeria city during meeting of political opposition parties





MAIDUGURI, Nigeria –  Witnesses say several bombs have exploded in a northeastern Nigeria city which is hosting a meeting of opposition political parties. The blasts happened Thursday afternoon in the city of Maiduguri, long under assault by a radical Islamic sect known as Boko Haram. A security official said he believed some soldiers were killed in the blasts, but did not have any other information. The official spoke on condition of anonymity as he was not authorized to speak to journalists.  The All Progressives Congress, a recently announced amalgam of opposition parties in Nigeria, was holding a meeting Thursday in the city that had drawn powerful politicians. Meanwhile, police in the eastern state of Taraba said foreigners working for a construction company escaped a kidnapping attempt Wednesday night that killed two police officers.

Serious Traffic in V/I tomorrow - Eko Atlantic City opening



There will be heavy traffic in Lagos tomorrow, especially around V/I as several dignitaries are coming for the opening of the Eko Atlantic City Phase 1 inauguration. President Goodluck, Governor Fashola and even Bill Clinton among other "dignitaries" will be in attendance. It will begin at 10 a.m so the Ikeja area may be affected as well (they should be coming in from the airport).  

Just thought to warn Lagosians as we are usually not warned in these situations and then we end up spending the day in traffic.
