DANCE 234…DANCE REALITY SHOW LIKE NEVER BEFORE

New set of dancers are set to emerge in the Nigerian entertainment industry, as KOGA ENTERTAINMENT presents ‘DANCE 234’, a dance reality show likened to no other for young people looking to pave their ways into history by dancing for a cause and of course for fame.

Dance 234 is bringing a refreshingly new dimension to the dance reality industry.  For the first time in the history of dance reality show in Nigeria, the focus will not mainly be on hip hop style of dance as most reality shows are known for; DANCE234 will accommodate all forms of dance style.

According to Jemila Musa, the producer of the show, ‘this is the first time a dance reality show will be accommodating all genres of dance and according importance to them. What we are looking for are pure dancers, we want you to come just the way you are. If the style of dance you are comfortable with is hip hop, galala, Fuji, highlife, traditional dance or what have you, our doors are open. As a matter of fact, we are more than willing to accommodate a new style of dance. What we want are dancers in their purest form and people who can sufficiently express themselves through dance’.

The contestants will have to convince the fierce and experienced team of judges that consist of Brandiny of ‘The Mask’ dance team, Preere Yibowei a Nigerian dance instructor and a yet-to-be disclosed foreign dance expert at auditions that will be held in Lagos, Benin, Abuja and Enugu in June. Sales of forms at N3000 start in the month of May nation-wide in all branches of Zenith Banks.

Twenty finalists from the auditions held in all four regions will be brought together in Lagos to battle it out on stage for the grand price of a car, N1 000 000 (one million naira), and a dance course abroad. First and second runner-up will get a N1 000 000 and N750 000 respectively. The lives of these twenty finalists will surely not remain the same as their skills will be brought to limelight in eviction shows that will be aired weekly on local and international TV stations.

KOGA is an entertainment powerhouse, consisting of four Audio-Visual ultra-modern Recording Studios with full HD and SDI cameras, Digital and Analogue audio, Editing and post-production suite, ultra-modern Event hall with capacity to seat 800 persons in banquet style, 1400 persons in theatre arrangement and 2000 persons in concert style and a Lounge designed for relaxation and entertainment.  KOGA is the brain behind ‘Dance 234’ and will be the sole production house for the show.

IREBOSA IGBINEDION,MANTU SON ROMANCE+EX GOVERNOR LADOJA PICKS WIFE NO 9+AISHA BABANGIDA SHINKAFI AT WAR WITH IBB OVER NEW WIFE?

Irebosa Igbinedion and Mantu's son in hot romance
Another high society wedding if things should work out well is imminent. And this time it involves yet another silver spoon kids.
The sizzling love affair between Irebosa, daughter of embattled former governor of Edo State, Lucky Igbinedion and son of ex Deputy Senate President speaker,Ibrahim Mantu will soon bring together the high and migty personality across the country. 
 Though the affair is still being shrouded in secrecy, your soar away Metropolix Weekly got wind of it at the secret birthday organized by the junior Mantu for Irebosa. No camera except the official photographer invited was allowed at the gig. Irebosa, a frivolous young girl was all over her prince charming all through the gig. And to tell you how solid the party was, the very quiet son of Globacom boss, Paddy Adenuga was at the party and he also came with a handbag. Trouble however started when Paddy was leaving and decided to take another handbag home, the abandoned handbag we learnt disagreed and insisted she's the rightful owner of Paddy. How it was eventually solved is what we can't really say.

 Ladoja set to pick Nike Akande's sister as wife no 9
If there's only one unrepentant polygamist we have in this part of the world, it's no other person than the former governor of Oyo- State, Chief Rasheed     Adewolu Ladoja.
Not many people know that the Ekerin Olubadan( 4th to the paramount ruler of Ibadanland) already have eight (8) wives and as if that is not enough, this politician who's a sworn enemy of Akala is planning to take another woman as his 9th wife. 
 Lolade who is just in her early 30 and who's a younger sister of one time Minister for Industries, Chief Mrs. Nike Akande, the pretty has remained the apple  of Ladoja's eyes as she gets whatever she needs without any hitch. She, we also gather has Ladoja's ears, Chief an insider squealed to us does not joke with this Lolade. The two lovers we gathered met at a function in Ibadan and sat close to each other, the body chemistry worked and that marked the beginning of what is about leading to marriage. Mrs. Nike Akandewe is not in support of the union, now that the two lovers are discussing marriage, the fear of her sister becoming the 9th wife might be baffling Nike Akande.

Aisha Babangida & Father's new wife at war?
One might wondering if Aisha Babangida, the heiress apparent to former military President, General Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (rtd) meant so well for her father when she got him one of her friends to marry in place of her late mum. If the rumour reaching us from the Minna, Niger State based Hilltop Mansion of the Babangidas is to be considered, the house we learn might be in disorder right now. 
 Reason being that the new wife who's a friend to Aisha has been having a running battle with her sister-in-law. Though IBB and some other family members have intervened but the new wife we gathered is not comfortable with the domineering power exercised by Aisha in the house. 
 Aisha we gathered hardly stay in her hubby's Gusau's government house as she prefers to spend much time with her father.
The new wife is not happy with the way Aisha always wanted to cook for her father despite the fact that the new wife who's a good cook is around. A born princess, the new family has been appealed to.
