HOPE THIS EX-BANKER WILL KEEP IT UP!

[caption id="attachment_2388" align="alignleft" width="240" caption="Olufunmilayo Adunni Olayinka, Deputy Governor of Ekiti State photo- Niyi Tabiti"][/caption]

By Niyi Tabiti


Lets hope that she would keep it up. Yes, we are impressed to say the least about what we thought of the newly sworn in Deputy Governor of Ekiti State, Madam Olufunmilayo Adunni Olayinka.


When you talk of a true African woman who carries herself with class and elegance, she has it. When you talk of a beauty with brain, we know that the ex-banker has it.


Those who have been watching her style of leadership told gistmaster.com that the ravishing beauty is indeed a good example. She does not carry her shoulder high like some people who got into leadership positions overnight and determined to misuse it.


Gistmaster.com saw her on Friday 26 November 2010 at Eko Hotel & Suites at the French Week Dinner. She came alongside her husband. It took some people time to believe that she was indeed the deputy governor. Why? there were no overzealous policemen embarrassing people all in the name of protecting a public office holder as the usual case with most of them. The couple simply entered in the comfort of their arms and were ushered to their seats cool and calm. Though they were accompanied by policemen, there was no pushing.


We hope that madam will keep it up

By Niyi Tabiti

Omowunmi Akinnifesi is wrapped in a 150,000 Dollars (24.5 Million Naira) made dress tonight. I just took her photographs about one and half hour ago at the grandfinale of the Nigerian French Week/ Nigeria Next Supermodel event.
As at the rime of this report, the event is still holding at the New Expo Hall of Eko Hotel and Suites, Victoria Island.
The dress is was made by the visiting French- Lebanese designer, Dany Atrache.

The adorable former beauty queen look ravishing as usual in the dress. Omowunmi confirmed to gistmaster.com at the event that the dress is actually worth 150,000 Dollars. The dress is made with real Diamond.

Gistmaster.com gathered that Omowunmi was only wearing the dress for night. She came in another dress but was invited back stage to pick a nice dress for herself in the collections of Dany Atrache. She went for this beautiful dress.

Dany Atrache is one of the most sought after designers in the world. He custom made clothes are also one of the most expensive in the world.

One of the guest argued that the dress couldn't have been that expensive. its just part of the designer hype for the price of fortune.

APPEAL COURT DECLARES AREGBESOLA GOVERNOR OF OSUN STATE

[caption id="attachment_2368" align="alignleft" width="495" caption="Aregbesola- Oyinlola"][/caption]

The Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) candidate in the last gubernatorial election, Alhaji Rauf Aregbesola has been declared governor of Osun State. Aregbesola, who was a commissioner for works  in Lagos State, contested the election with Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola of the Peoples Democratic Party in 2007 but had to go through a three year legal battle before judgment eventually came his way. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had declared Oyinlola as Governor shortly after the conduct of the election in 2007

The court granted the prayers of Engineer Aregbesola on four out of the five counts he brought before the  election appeal tribunal. Aregbesola hails from Ilesa in Osun State.He served in the eight year administration of Governor Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Lagos State.

Oyinlola, a prince from Okukuland was a military governor durning the administration of General Ibrahim Babangida. He later contested for governorship in Osun State.

INI EDO COMPLETES ANOTHER PHOTO SHOOT

[caption id="attachment_2359" align="alignleft" width="395" caption="Ini Edo"][/caption]

By Niyi Tabiti

Ini Edo is certainly glowing at this moment. Those who thought she would be 'shut down' from prominence after her marriage to Phillip Ehigwina are now disappointed.

Those who believe in this school of thought says marriage has a way of weakling a star and their market value.

Aside her

Talk of the town wedding in Houston Texas, the Eket Akwa Ibom state born Nollywood star also unveiled a new movie. The premiere, which took place in Ikoyi Lagos was also a talk of the town event.

The big one, ofcourse is the endorsement deal she got with telecommunications giant, Globacom. Ini, just like a few others who were endorsed as Glo ambassadors, got millions of Naira. Its the biggest deal for most Nollywood stars. None of them has earned such amount or anything near it per movie role in Nigeria.

Sources hinted Gistmaster.com that Globacom has so far been impressed with the turn out of images with Ini Edo in their various advertorials. Gistmaster.com also gathered that the actress just completed a new photo shoot for Globacom about two weeks ago.

Moussa Moussa, a Lebanese photographer based in Nigeria conducted the photo shoot in his studio.
