Too Much Money! Wande Coal Makes It Rain With Pounds At Davido Concert!
Fans who attended the Davido Concert at 02 Indigo in London over the weekend have been reporting that Wande Coal came through and sprayed wads of cash in the crowd.
Many fans took to twitter to tweet as this was happening. Needless to say, they were some fans that definitely got back the money they paid for the concert. Now I just need to attend the next Wande Coal concert.

Amstel, Tuface Campus Connect Ends With A Show Stopper In Lagos
The Indoor sports hall of the University of
Lagos was a beehive of heightened
performances by Nigeria’s hip hop super
stars as well as the huge turnout of
students to round up the thrilling Tuface
and friends campus connect tour sponsored
by Amstel Malt, the premium low sugar
malt drink from the stable of Nigerian
Breweries plc which played host to
Nigerian’s Afro hip hop singing sensation,
Innocent Ujah Idibia, popularly called
Tuface, and other talented musicians.
The Campus Connect gig train which was
received in Benin City, Port Harcourt, Enugu
and Abuja had several budding and notable
artistes thrilling their fans. They include:
Ranson, Money B, Hype M.C, Efa, Young
Grace, 2Sec, Rocksteady, Damy Crane, Sheyi
Shay, Rough Coil, Vector, Solid Star, Phyno,
Sound Sultan and the winner of Amstel
Malta Show time in 2012, Same .
Music lovers in Lagos got more than they
bargained for as these music acts offered
interactive music renditions which drew
endless applause and joyful moments from
them. The mammoth crowd, comprising
students from University of Lagos, Yaba
College of Technology, Lagos State
Polytechnic and Adeniran Ogunsanya
College of Education Lagos defied the heavy
downpour to enjoy music performance by
Tuface and friends.
Speaking on behalf of the Brand Manager,
Amstel Malta, Miss Hannatu Ageni Yusuf
expressed her appreciation for the
impressive turn out and the outstanding
musical performances. “Amstel Malta has
always championed and advanced the
course of youths by encouraging them to be
the best that they can be. Tonight’s
performance is also a clear demonstration
of being able to connect to the University
students and the good people of Lagos”.
She added that “The Amstel Malta brand
has a penchant for promoting good values
in the youths in a bid to chart a good
course for Nigeria as a nation. TuFace and
his friends have been awesome and Amstel
Malta, the low sugar premium brand from
Nigerian Breweries is indeed delighted to be
associated with them”.
She promised that the next edition will be
bigger and more exciting as the team will
do a proper analysis to adjust and add on
some ideas to create that moment of
interaction with Nigerian hip hop stars and
the students.
The audience received Tuface with
uncontrollable chants of excitement. Apart
from churning out some his iconic music
tracks, TuFace also pepped up his
performance with a repertoire of
chorographers while he perfected the act of
singing as well as skilfully manoeuvring his
lanky gait. With cans of Amstel Malta in
their hand, Tuface proved to his fans for
the umpteenth time why he is unarguably
one of Nigeria’s hottest musical exports to
the global scene.
The crowd cheered endlessly as 2Face
recreated his popular tracks with
improvisations. Tracks such as ‘For
instance’, ‘Bush meat’, ‘Nfana Ibaga’, ‘U no
holy pass’, ‘See me so’, ‘No shaking’, ‘Enter
the place’, ‘Implication’, and his hit track
from his recent‘ Away and Beyond’ album
tagged ‘Ihe neme’. Certainly, TuFace backed
by his friends lived up to his billing as one
of Nigeria’s top acts, he also provided the
undergraduates with the opportunity to be
the best they can be.

Globacom boss Mike Adenuga walks out on staff at 60th birthday bash
It does appear that CEO of telecom giants,
Mike Adenuga, does not like excessive
spotlight or lavish praise.
According to a report on Linda Ikeji’s blog,
the unassuming billionaire walked out of his
60th birthday bash, after loud encomiums
from Glo staff and others present.
The full report said:
This happened last night Friday May
3rd at Mike Adenuga Tower on Adeola
Odeku street in Victoria Island.
Hundreds of staff of telecoms giant
Globacom gathered at the lounge
situated on the ground floor of the
office building to celebrate with their
chairman after a text message was
passed round the office on Thursday
afternoon inviting staff to a birthday
bash with him. Mike Adenuga turned
60 on Monday April 29th.
Okey Bakassi was
there as the MC,
the DJ was
already playing music, drinks passed
round while people waited for the
billionaire businessman to arrive. Mike
Adenuga eventually showed up in his
Range Rover bullet proof SUV around
8pm. He graciously greeted people at
the entrance of the lounge but stopped
in his tracks as people started cheering
loudly as he entered the lounge.
The haling was so loud and probably
too much for Adenuga that he
immediately turned around and left the
lounge. He got into his car and left
with his security detail. He never came
back.
Glo staff waited for a few hours and
eventually left when they realized their
chairman was not coming back.

“It’s not strange to receive support from Governor Akpabio, he is like a father to Annie” – 2face
2face Idibia has stated that people should not be
angry over the support he received from various
personalities, as he married his longtime girlfriend,
Annie Macaulay.
The couples’ union has been laced with so many
controversies, especially the gifts they received from
public officers like a Toyota Prado SUV and a 2013
Chevy Corvette Sports car, but 2face says, “I don’t
feel strangely for getting support for our wedding. I
am just happy and that is the most important thing.”
Speaking specifically about Akwa Ibom State Governor,
Godswill Akpabio, he made it clear that, ”My wife is
from Akwa Ibom State and the governor of the state
is like a father to her.
“The governor said he was doing all these because he
loves his daughter and I don’t think I should feel
anyhow because a father is showering his daughter
blessings. I don’t believe anybody should feel
anyhow, it is a celebration mood, so everybody should
be happy.”

“The allegation is wicked, ridiculous and irresponsible” – Senator Mark denies buying N47m Ferrari for 2face
Kola Ologbondiyan, the Special Adviser on Media &
Publicity to the President of the Senate, David Mark,
has released an official press statement, debunking
allegations that the Senator gave 2face Idibia a N47m
Ferrari, as a wedding gift.
The statement read:
Senator Mark did not visit Dubai for Tuface
wedding rather he attended the 128th Inter
parliamentary Union (IPU) conference currently
holding in Quito, Ecuador. Click to continue.
He was also not represented at Mr. Idibia’s
wedding. It is also instructive to state that the
President of the Senate, Senator Mark, did not
make a car donation of any kind to Tuface before
departing Nigeria for Ecuador neither did he
purchase nor send any car to Dubai as a wedding
gift for the musician or his wife.
Who made the donation on behalf of the President
of the Senate?
It is therefore a puerile lie for anybody to state
that Senator Mark bought a Ferrari car worth
N47m for Tuface.
The allegation is wicked, ridiculous and
irresponsible.

Ita-Giwa will also be present at the event.
Last week, the celebrity couple were beneficiaries of
the Governor’s largesse when they received a brand
new Toyota Prado SUV apiece. Although the
Governor’s lavish spending drew flaks from many
Nigerians, however, the Governor’s action was quickly
justified in a statement by the Commissioner for
Information, Aniekan Umana.
“That looking carefully at the surrounding events in
perspective, Mrs. Annie Idibia, nee Macaulay is a
daughter of Akwa Ibom State and the gift of a Prado
SUV from her Governor is only a gesture of love and
goodwill,” the statement had read.
DailyPost gathered that the wedding, put at an
estimated of N50 million, is being organised and
managed by Oaken Events.

the Idoma Kingdom proud. Happy married life.”

I’m yet to decide whether I will accept Governor Akpabio’s cars – 2face Idibia
Superstar singer, 2face Idibia, has stated that he is
not sure if he will accept the cars Governor Godswill
Akpabio presented to him and his wife, Annie
Macaulay-Idibia, during their traditional marriage.
The Akwa Ibom state first citizen, announced that he
was giving the celebrity couple two brand new Toyota
Prado SUVs, as they tied the knots traditionally on
Friday. He also promised to send a 29-man delegation
from the state to Dubai, where the much anticipated
white wedding will take place.
The announcement has attracted a lot of controversy,
with many observers insisting that Akpabio should
have sunk in the money into various projects crying
for attention in the state.
However, in a phone conversation, Bayo Omisore,
2face Idibia’s spokesman said: “The governor made a
promise, when the cars come, we will decide whether
to accept them or not. We cannot take a decision on
the basis of a promise that is yet to be fulfilled.”
He also denied knowledge of the caustic criticisms
that have trailed the donation.
Warri Businessman, Ayiri Emami Splashes N20M On 2face’s Upcoming Dubai Wedding
CEO of A & E petrol, A & E group of Companies
( which includes different aspects such as Oil,
Logistics, and constructions), 911 Hotels & Resorts,
and 911 entertainment, Ayiri Emami is splashing over
20million naira on 2face and Annie Idibia’s Dubai
wedding. Can you beat that?
It was alleged that the warri businesman spent 150
million Naira on his wedding in 2011 (in which 2face
was one of his groomsmen) and also bought 2face a
brand new 15 million naira Range Rover Sport SUV.
Hmmn, that’s so cool!
