By Gistmaster.com Star actress, Genevieve Nnaji’s ex boyfriend, Preddy Wyse seems to be at the front burner of another controversial election of the PMAN (Performing Musician Association of Nigeria). According to information at the disposal of gistmaster.com, Preddy who is now a big time distributor of Kia Motors in Delta State scored 136 votes to trash his opponent at the election. A graduate of music from the American Devroy School of Music, Preddy Wise Okowa returned from the United States many years ago.   Before he went into many called social oblivion, Preddy was always hitting headlines because of his romance with Genevieve, who was a fast emerging star actress at that time. It was a well publicized romance at that time. It almost led to marriage but a number of factors such as family resistant against the relation especially from Preddy sisters led to the crash of the relationship. No one heard about Preddy since then until recently. Gistmaster Newsroom news@gistmaster.com

 Goodies and more goodies keep coming the way of Nigerian entertainers. Yesterday, Gistmaster.com covered the official media presentation of Sasha and Banky W as Brand Ambassadors for Samsung Phones in Nigeria .  Banky W (Bankole Wellington) was all smiles. He is one of the lucky 'American' returnees making good money from brand endorsements in Nigeria. Sasha too! The chic is 'chopping' right left and centre.  Tola Odunsi one of the directors of Storm Records was also there. Olisa Adibua too. The presentation took place at Victoria Crown Plaza, Hotel, Victoria Island.  Top executives of Samsung told us that its a one year contract but did not disclose the worth of the ambassadorial deal. We guess it must have been good money, judging from the way Sasha and Banky W were 'bumping' with excitement at the presentation. A new Samsung is going to hit the market next month. We will load you with information about the phone soon. - Story & Photo by Niyi Tabiti emai
