ABUJA YOUTH GO WILD AT MTN/2FACE SHOW

It was a pot pouri of fun for over ten thousand youths and adult fun seekers penultimate Saturday at the Millennium Gardens in the nation’s capital city of Abuja, when Africa’s mega telecom brand MTN combined with Nigeria’s mega music star 2Face Idibia to round off the six cities musical jamboree themed: MTN Xtra Cool Tour with 2Face and Friends which started March 1st in Benin.
The mega concert which featured one of American R&B music sensation
Marques Houston, had scintillating performances from both upcoming Abuja based artistes and top rated music divas among whom were Marvelous Benji, Zulezoo, Free Style, Sound Sultan, W4, Rock Steady, Ragga Remmy, Hypertek Dancers, Rough, Rugged and Raw, Blacktribe, Da Natives, and toast of the moment 9ICE among others.
The youths, numbering over 10, 000 were treated to high value fun characteristic of MTN Xtra Cool brand, a product designed for the youth segment in the Nigerian telecommunication market. The lucky ones among the youths, who stormed the nation’s capital from within and outside Abuja municipal, went away with lots of free MTN branded freebies, Blackberry, Philips brand of MP3/DVD player etc.
The show, that started at 6pm, was climaxed with a thrilling vibration from the celebrated star 2Face who dazzled his fans with a live band. The MOBO and MTV base Best African Artiste of the year, was in his element, singing his heart out. He mesmerized the crowd with his trade in stock, gyrating to the pleasure of the overwhelming crowd.
The security men at the show which included men of the Nigeria police, Army men and the Voltron Security men, a notable private security outfit, had a hectic time controlling the surging crowd, that lined up to the main road.
To signal the close of the show, the organizers set the sky on fire with colourful fire crackers that brightens and beautified the sky at every moment it went off in the air. The show officially ended at about 2am.
Meanwhile, the entire crew on the tour made up of MTN officials, Dojoes Management officials, 2Face and the officials of his music outfit Hypertek, and a cross section of the entertainment journalists visited Abuja Children Home the largest orphanage home in Abuja. The visit, which was part of the programme plan for the execution of the six cities tour project, was at the instance of MTN. It was led by 2Face who was accompanied by his musical friend Dare Art-Alade.
The African queen crooner, who was taken on tour of the orphanage home by the administrator of the home Mallam Sulaiman Umar Abubakar, donated on behalf of MTN several bags of rice and other food items, and later made a personal donation of an undisclosed sum to the orphanage. This gesture has been replicated at every other orphanage visited in all the other cities where the MTN Xtra Cool Tour with 2Face and Friends visited.
Speaking at the orphanage home Mr. Ayokunle Adesina MTN Xtra Cool brand manager, explained that the brand xtra cool is just living to its brand promise of “Total Fun. And we are not limiting the fun to the privileged members of the society who would find it convenient to attend the Xtra Cool concert; we are also taking the fun to the less privileged member of the larger society.

That is why we choose to take one of the artiste that both the Nigerian youths and adult group ever so much loved, to six majour cities within the six geo political zones. We have been to Benin, Ibadan, Lagos, Enugu, Kaduna and now Abuja. And in all these cities, we always remember the less privileged. We take 2Face and other artistes on the tour to visit at least one motherless babies home where the less privileged will be privileged to see live their music idol.

The children have never had it so good at any of the orphanages we visited. Apart from donating food items, 2face always mingled with them, take picture with them and above all, he sings for them. We are using the tour to preach message of love, joy and total fun, the MTN way”, the ebullient Xtra cool brand manager enthused.

Finally,Munachi Abii concluded her tenure as Most Beautiful Girl In Nigeria in the early hours of today.
She was very delighted.According to sources,he would now have enough time to hangout with Peter Okoye of Psquare fame,the new man in her life.
It was obvious that the two have so much 'heart' connection.Peter was around the Munachi and her mother and they had enough time holding hands and chatting.We also saw Peter at different times holding Munachi's bag.What more?Psquare also performed at the event and Munachi was all smiles...'He get as e dey do me,do me...!'
Alot of people have said and www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com saw it live that the babe needs a coach on how to manage stardom.The babe is saucy and some people who got a taste of it were bitter.She did it to someone before our very eyes at Hip Hop World Awards,the same thing repeated itself at MBGN contest.

Itohan Igbinova,who represented Ekiti State was adjuded the winner.She was crown by the previous winner.She also won Miss Photogenic at the event.
The best traditional wear award for the night went to Princess Amadi (Miss Adamawa) while the title of Miss Amity went to Adaeze Igwe (The eventual winner of the contest)

Top radio presenter,Oge Ogwo has denied the gist around town that she is dating Nigeria's International soccer star,John Mikel Obi.I was suprised to read it in a soft sell magazine that we have been dating for sometime.In fact, i have never even seen him all my life.I was not even around,the day he came to my station for an interview.How they managed to join us together is what baffles me till now", she told http://www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com/

Oge revealed that she is very much involved with someone she loves so much. “I am in love with someone and I think I am contended with him”
Oge hails from Enugu State, Nigeria and she started her broadcasting career with Ray Power FM.She told us that the Nigerian entertainment industry would definitely grow to become one of the best in the world soon. According to her, the opportunities are there and people are making the best use of it. Alot of creativity is being injected into the entertainment industry.That is why people from abroad now come back home to get involved.
Aside her entertainment programme on Brila FM, Oge is very passionate about children.She is involved with an NGO that is looking ways of alleviating the plights of street children. “A lot of these kids are not in the street by their own design. They are the ones feeding themselves. At the end, they get so frustrated and before you know it, they turn to criminals” she said.
She appealed to Nigerians at home and abroad to look for ways of helping children who are living under this condition so that they won’t turn out to hurt the society that fail to carter for them.

TONY'S LONDON BABE DELIVERS A BABY BOY

By Niyi Tabiti
Chief Reporter

Few days after http://www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com/ published the gist and photo of how Nigeria’s hip hop musician, Tony tetuila show off a wrist watch, which he claims cost him about 4,000 Pound Sterling to get, news have started filtering to town that the 'You don hit my car’ crooner has impregnated a chic living in the United Kingdom.
A source told http://www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com/ that the chic is Pemela, a 19 year old model and socialite leaving in London. She is also known to work with Makosi Musambasi of Big Brother UK. The pair met and began dating in the summer of last year. We gathered that Pamela has confirmed her pregnancy to family and friends. She has been spotted around London and it making it extremely clear that she is well with the baby. Rumours are spreading like wildfire that Pamela is giving Demilola Opeoluwa (mother of Tony’s first and second child) a run for her money ”It looks like Tetuila is not just in love with two women but is having babies from them”, disclosed the source. Not long after his long time girlfriend, Demilola put to bed their second child,the afro hip hop star's London girlfriend, Pamela also gave him a baby boy in the UK .

http://www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com/ gathered that she is shying away from journalists and all attention. Sources disclosed that since she had a premature birth she wants the baby to gain strength before she can withstand all the attention due to the mother of a Tony Tetuila’s baby.

So, if you are thinking about who could have gotten that expensive wrist watch for Tony...now you have the answer.Secondly, if you want to know those who are competing with Tuface in the area of baby making...i guess you also have the answer.Now,you know those who are adding to Nigeria's population...!

I AM JUST SICK...!

I am just sick about this whole thing and I need to mention it here again.Someone wrote a comment the other day telling me that why did I tell people to quote or create a link anytime they take materials from here.Its either the person is mischievious or ingnorant of certain things.
Few days back, someone who has been following my work called me from Netherlands.The person informed that how come almost all my materials are also published on nigeriafilms.com? I got there and I was amazed because almost all my daily gist were published there.They even picked all the pictures on the hip hop world awards and they wrote 'photos submitted by Niyi Tabiti' (Please go to the photo gallery of nigeriafilms.com)
To make matters worst,they put their signature on my photos.If you are picking,do you have to pick 90 per cent of what is on the blog?' Secondly,do you have to put your signature on another person's job?Isn't that criminal?
Haba! No permission,no pay, nothing!If you work in the midnight, follow celebrities all over the place, battle computers and go through the trouble of posting these materials on the blog everyday,you will definately pity the operator of this blog.
I am just sick about the whole thing because it look as I have been working for soomeone without knowing it.In Europe and America that we all try to copy, there is always a procedure to how certain things are done.How can I have an online journal and another online journal picking 90 cent of what I post on their own website.I am just sick...!
My friend who wrote that comment,please I am not bragging but I am very consistent in what i do and I try to be ahead.People should respect other peoples work.If I hurt you by writing this piece I am very sorry,there is no other way to press for my intellectual rights.
Some people have been good enough to pick one or two things and they acknowledge us well.I thank 'Aunty' Funmi Iyanda because her link brought alot of traffic back to the blog when she reproduced Omotola's photo on her http://www.fiyanda.blogspot.com/. I also thank Tribune Newspapers,Punch Newspapers,The Nation Newspapers and First Weekly magazine for quoting from the blog at one time or the other.
Well,tommorow in Lagos,Nigeria,Erelu Ojuolape Ojora would mark her 70th birthday,Shaggy will also be performing in Lagos.Ade Bendel and Friends will also have a show at Eleko Beach.

CELEBRITY COURT: BLOGGERS GIVES PSQUARE A NO CASE SUBMISSION

Following the breaking news report in www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com on Monday that Psquare, a popular hip hop group in Nigeria, alleging that Hip Hop World award was a total shame to the entertainment sector, bloggers and opinion makers have said the group has no case at all.
When the case was brought for hearing on that same day, the elder brother of the group and their manager, Mr.Jude Okoye disclosed that the award should be seen as a tribal attack and a slap on the entertainment industry. He cited certain authorities as defence.He told celebrity court that Ayo Animashaun and other members of Hip Hop World award only gave awards to people from the south west origin except 2face, Timaya and Rugged man.
However, comments emanating from bloggers show that people are angry with the group for dragging Hip Hop World Award before the celebrity court. They referred to previous editions where Psquare carted home award. They did not raise eyebrow or call it a tribal award at that time. Hip Hop World Award’s counsel was absent in court.However,Comments,text messages and calls so far received by the blog shows that the group shouldn’t have dragged the award organizers before the celebrity court.
There are plans by celebrity court to set up a special panel to look into the demands of Psquare.If they are just then,HHWA would be ordered to present Psquare with a special recognition award. Further hearing has been slated for tomorrow at www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com Court 1
Arise!

One thing you can’t take away from Mandy is that she is heavily endowned in her ‘front upper region’ and she is always proud to say it.

If Mandy were to be a Yoruba girl,we are very sure, she would have been named 'Bunmi'.

So, what happened between Okunoren and D’banj?Remember,www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com told you that Kehinde Okunoren boasted before the awards that D’banj would wear a suit made by him at the cost of N150,000 to the award. When I saw D’banj, he was wearing a top made by Elvis. He could not offer a satisfactory explanation as to why the Okunoren twins could not provide the suit.
Somebody should please help us answer the question here!
Well, lets give Wande Coal a big applause.Ladies love the ‘Ololufe’ crooner and it was obvious as a lot of them jostle right, left and centre to have his attention.
