Aliko Dangote in Hot Romance With Ex-Beauty Queen Sylvia Nduka...Wedding Bells May Ring


                   
Sylvia's new mode of dressing

Sylvia in Dangote's Private Jet

This is arguably the hottest gist running around town in the confines of those in the know.
It’s the story of the sizzling romance between the 2011 Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria winner, Sylvia Nduka and Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote! Love is really in the air and good enough, the man Aliko Dangote does not have any woman in his home. And as for the ex beauty Queen, she’s not just loving this relationship but has also agreed to the tenets of Islam by beginning to wear hijab. For all you care, Sylvia has also updated her name on Instagram as Sylvia Nduka AD meaning Aliko Dangote.
Although the affair is still shrouded in utmost secrecy to the public, a reliably source revealed that the beauty Queen has totally captured the heart of the billionaire businessman.
According to our reliable source, the relationship which kicked off shortly after Sylvia’s reign in 2013 has since metamorphosed into a serious affair that has had the billionaire pumping millions into Sylvia’s life and business. “Give or take two years, it’s been going on for a while, but they have tried as much as possible to keep it away from the public view” the source revealed.
Undoubtedly, her relationship with the billionaire has changed Sylvia’s life in no little ways, the former beauty Queen commands Dangote’s private jet like hers and flies in and out of the country on constant short trips abroad. “On many occasions she jets into Dubai and lodges in executive suites in Burj Arab! Like a big girl that she is, she cruises around town in white Range Rover sports, a gift bestowed on her by her benefactor” we were told by a source.
Adds her lover's initials AD (Aliko Dangote) to her name


Unknown to many, the billionaire has been investing hugely into Sylvia own Hairline Sylvia’s Hair Gallery which was opened and launched shortly after her reign in 2013.
Not only has Sylvia’s life changed dramatically over the years, her mode of dressing has also witnessed a drastic change. Insiders swore to high heavens that the lovers are quite serious and marriage might be on their minds as Sylvia has been spotted on several occasions dressing like a Muslim! “There is no doubt that it is a serious affair, not just a fling. She covers up more now and you know that Dangote’s religion allows him to take as many wives as he likes so you can expect a big announcement anytime soon” our source confided in us.

We also gathered exclusively that Enemaya Lawani who is also a former beauty Queen has given her friend Sylvia all the support and encouragement needed to date a older man as she also boasts of one and has trailed that path for six years.
For those who do not know, Ene has enjoyed a long term affair with her beau the Chairman of Polo Luxury John Obayuwana, a relationship that has enjoyed massive popularity over the years. However, wedding bells might not be ringing anytime soon for this couple unlike Sylvia and Dangote and this can be traced to Jennifer Obayuwana’s involvement.
Even though Jennifer who got engaged December last year 2014 to Peter Salah was initially instrumental to Ene’s relationship with her Dad, the 33year old mother of one has drawn the line and maintained that her father would not marry her friend.
Marriage or no marriage, Ene’s life like Sylvia’s has changed thanks to her billionaire lover. She also paints the town red with a Range Rover Sports car like her friend, has a multi million Naira business empire EmeNaya Millinary Turbans and Accessories; an outfit that caters for only the elite in the society, courtesy of “The Rolex Man” John Obayuwana. 
National Enquirer will definitely stay glued to watch more events unfold, especially as it seems that wedding bells would ring for Dangote and Nduka soon.

Apple Buys Chinedu Echeruo’s ‘HopStop’ For A $1 Billion



Apple has acquired Chinedu Echeruo’s HopStop.com, The Wall Street Journal’s publication, AllThingsDigital reports.

Founded in 2005, HopStop.com makes mobile applications for both iOS and Android that covers over 300 cities and that helps people get directions or find nearby subway stations and bus stops.

HopStop has oft been compared to Israel’s Waze which was recently acquired by Google for $1 billion. The move is seen as Apple’s plan to bolster its map offering especially given Google’s recent acquisition of Waze.

Chinedu Echeruo, A serial entrepreneur who grew up in Eastern Nigeria and attended Kings College, Lagos. He attended Syracuse University and the Harvard Business School in the United States and founded HopStop.com after working for several years in the Mergers & Acquisitions and Leveraged Finance groups of J.P Morgan Chase where he was involved in a broad range of M&A, Financing and Private Equity transactions. He also worked at AM Investment Partners, a $500 million volatility-driven convertible bond arbitrage hedge fund.

He founded and raised nearly $8 million for his two U.S based internet companies; Hopstop.com and Tripology.com.

Tripology.com was acquired in 2010 by American travel and navigation information company, Rand McNally. He was named Black Enterprise Magazine’s Small Business Innovator of the year and listed in the magazine’s Top 40 under 40 and is currently a partner and head of the Principal Investing group at Constant Capital, a West Africa based investment bank.

Oh Yes!!!! Barack Obama Joins Twitter!!!

President Barack Obama is now on Twitter!

 Barack Obama Profile Pic
“Hello, Twitter! It’s Barack. Really! Six years in, they’re finally giving me my own account,” Obama wrote as his very first message.

The 53-year old's bio, meanwhile, reads as follows:
"Dad, husband, and 44th President of the United States. Tweets may be archived."

That may be accurate and everything, but Obama may want to show a bit more humor and originality if he wants to gain any kind of real following.

Former President of the United States Bill Clinton is also on Twitter and can perhaps offer Obama a few pointers, while 2016 hopeful Hillary Clinton also has an account.

Hillary's bio lists her as "hair icon" and a "pantsuit aficionado," making it clear Hillary may have lost to Obama in 2008, but she has him beaten so far in social media creativity.

Photos: Female Student Says She Sees Jim Iyke Marrying Her in Dream


Last week, the nollywood actor/bad boy was doing the regular thing everyone would do after meeting with who you consider your favourite governor in Nigeria. He posted a picture of himself with Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom State, with catchy captions to show how much he respects the governor for his wonderful achievements in his state.

His post was harmless but one of the comments he got in return must have stopped him in his tracks. It was from a lady.
 https://igcdn-photos-f-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/t51.2885-15/11255343_833519923390861_1869600505_n.jpg
In a shocking post, the female student said:
“Jim I beg you in the name of God, stop getting married to me in my dreams. For more than three years now I have always seen you in my dreams, married to me. I have been praying every time about it but it always reoccurred. Even last night it happened again...

I am tired of this. If you are his PA show him this text message and if this is you, I beg you in the name of God, to do something about it.”

The comment definitely got attention of Potpourri who decided to seek the girl out who simply signed her name as Jackiify. 

In a BBM chat with her later on, Potpourri found out that the girl is a Nigerian schooling in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. She goes by the name Ify Jacob. The first thing that struck about her comment was that this could be a girl acting out her fantasy and laying it out in a dramatic way. Then I asked her if she had ever had any crush on Jim, many girls do.

“That is where the problem is” she claimed. “I never had a crush on him before but all of a sudden I started having dreams that I am married to him for more than three years now. You cannot understand because you are not Jim or a pastor. I don’t like it. It is disturbing to me” she cries out.

NOLLYWOOD ACTOR, IK OGBONNA AND I SHARE SAME MENTAL DISORDER, COLOMBIAN FIANCEE REVEALS

Many people thought Nollywood actor, IK Ogbonna and his Colombian fiancee were crazy when the duo hooked up off a couple of romantic exchanges over the Instagram. With barely anything to hold on to, the Colombian Sonia Lareinaa left her family and country to come to Nigeria to settle with her heartthrob  here. With open hands IK welcomed her. It is stuff made of crazy love.
“She’s an awesome person and we met off social media; I left a breakup and at that point in time I was really not thinking of getting into any relationship. A friend of mine pointed her instagram page to me and I wasn’t really interested in surfing the internet at that point in time, but then again, I had a second look at her page and I was liking her pictures and unconsciously she was liking my pictures and from there, we started talking and it was almost as if it was just meant to be.
 
It was just two people with like minds coming together with a lot of positive chemistry being built up and then before you know anything, it was like boom, it happened” IK recalled in a recent interview with Vanguard. No doubt the lovebirds share something in common and if what the Colombian shared on her Instagram page, a couple of days ago is anything to go by, it seems they share more than love. As she put it, “
 
IK Ogbonna and I share exactly the same mental disorder,we simply must stick to each other forever, no one else could possibly understand”,  she declared after what must have been a groovy night-out at the popular Quilox nightclub in Victoria Island last Sunday. They were in the company of a friend Ify Jones. Sonia was having such a good time and had all but praises for city of Lagos with various hashtags like, “#AintNoCityLikeLagosCity #LagosByNight”. 
 
IK must have been tripping her so good she’s forgotten Bogota so fast! 
She is seven months pregnant for IK.
 
We wish her safe delivery.......

Why a Man Was Forced to Sleep With a Corpse and Drink The Water Used to Wash It: See Photo

http://i2.wp.com/ynaija.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/204x400xBode-David1.jpg.pagespeed.ic_.e-Q2FmFU_E1.jpg?zoom=1.5&resize=520%2C245 
It was gathered that the incident, which happened at Isheri Magodo, a suburb of Lagos, was executed because before Ganiyu gave up the ghost in the hospital, he kept calling Bode’s name.
Recounting his ordeal, Bode, an indigene of Ekiti State, a mechanic, who specialized in fixing Japanese vehicles, said: “I knew the late Ganiyu and Wasiu in January, when I was looking for someone to fix my faulty Honda car.
“That was when Ganiyu introduced me to Wasiu to fix my car. After he fixed my car, I paid him N35,000. Since then, we have had no business except when our paths occasionally crossed and we exchange pleasantries.
“On Tuesday, Wasiu called me at about 6p.m., saying they need my help urgently. He said Ganiyu was in the hospital and that they needed money to purchase pints of blood and drips, which was about N19, 000.
“He pleaded with me to come. At about 7pm, without any idea that Ganiyu was dead, I drove my car to the junction of their street, called him on phone that he should come and collect N5,000, which was all that I had to assist Ganiyu’s treatment at that time.
“When he came to where I parked my vehicle, he said the hospital was nearby, so we walked towards where he said the hospital is located.
“As we walked, I began to notice some strange movement in the vicinity as bad boys filled the area, so I asked where exactly the hospital was. He said we are taking a short cut to the hospital.
‘’Eventually, the short cut led to a compound. Immediately we entered the compound, people began to ask me what I knew about Ganiyu’s death. I told them I knew nothing, but they did not believe me, and they began to beat me.
‘’When they were beating me, a Baale in the area interrogated me, told them to stop beating me and to hand me over to the police, or they might beat me to death and then have two corpses on their hands. But they refused.
“After beating me, they forced me to sleep on the floor in the same room where Ganiyu’s corpse was laid to prove that I had nothing to do with his death. While they were beating me, my phone and the money in my pocket got missing.
“When they discovered that I was still alive, they washed his corpse and forced me to drink the water. I refused but they almost killed me with another round of beating. When it was obvious that I had no option, I drank it.
“After I drank the water, someone who claimed that he knew me called the police. The police took me to divisional police station at Awoshika, before the case was transferred to Area F Command.
“I have nothing to do with Ganiyu’s death. How would I be responsible for his death when I had no problem with him? All I want is for government and Nigerians to come to my aid, and bring those who meted this inhumane treatment to me to justice.’’
In his defence, 33-year-old Wasiu Fadairo, the mechanic who lured Bode with the call that brought him to the house, said: “I am from Kwara State. The late Ganiyu is from my home town.
“On May 12, Ganiyu was stooling and vomiting blood, so we rushed him to a hospital located along Oluwora Road, Isheri in Magodo. He later died, calling a particular name— Bode.
“After he died, we took him home because none of his immediate family members or relatives was available. When we called them, they said they were coming, so we kept his corpse inside his room.
“That same day, neighbours and people living around were angry, alleging that the name Bode, which Ganiyu kept calling before he died, was responsible for his death. So they began to call Bode’s phone number.
“When Bode did not come, I called him with my phone and told him that Ganiyu was lying critically ill and needed blood and drips, and that we need his assistance.
“When he came, people began to question him concerning what he knew about Ganiyu’s death. Before he could say a word, they pounced on him and began to beat him. So I ran to call the police to come and rescue him.
“After police rescued him, they later went to where he parked his car and vandalized it. I was there when they were beating him, but I was not there when they forced him to lie beside the corpse and drink the water used to wash it.”
Confirming the incident, Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Kenneth Nwosu, said: “Two friends went out for a drink and one of them, Ganiyu, took ill after the outing and started stooling.
“He was rushed to the hospital for medical attention, but died in the process. Angry friends and neighbours, suspecting the complicity of Bode David, descended on him and attempted to lynch him.
“He was, however, rescued by our policemen and investigations into the circumstances surrounding the death of Ganiyu commenced at Isheri Division. But the case has been transferred to the Department of Criminal investigation, DCI, Yaba, for further investigation.”
