Nigerian Barbie accused of N30,000 scam 


Bobrisky is being accused of scamming a young lady of N30,000 paid for cream.



Bobrisky has once again, found himself in the thick of a controversy, but then again, he is a controversy in himself.

A young lady has come out to accuse the bleaching specialist of scamming her of N30,000 which is almost hard to believe knowing how much Bobrisky enjoys showing off his wealth.
The lady identified as Timileyin Abiola contacted CoolFm OAP,Daddy Freeze, via Instagram, claiming to have ordered bleaching cream from Bobrisky who has failed to deliver.
She wrote, "Gud evng daddyfreeze, so sorry to bother you, I just want you to pls make it known to plp that the so-called male barbie doll named Bobrisky has started scamming with the cream he sells I sent him money to send me cream and after I sent the money he has just been giving me all sorts of excuses like he already sent it ,or he forgot to send it and it's been 1mnth now, he blocked my number completely that I can't reach him, and he claims to have a rich Bae."
Freeze also shared photo proof of the transaction, showing that the sum was paid into Bobrisky's account in October.
Abiola claimed that Bobrisky has been giving different excuses as to why the cream is yet to be delivered and has now blocked her number so she is unable to reach him.
Freeze shared a photo collage of Abiola and Bobrisky, as well as the proof of payment, writing, "Lady claims Bobrisky collected money from her for some products but refused to deliver! I'm sure there is a mix up somewhere and Bobrisky would deliver. Here is her email anyway."
Bobrisky is yet to respond to the claims. Meanwhile, this is the second controversy the Transvestite has been embroiled in recently.
News about Bobrisky beating up a lady who tried to take a picture of him, recently made the rounds on social media.
According to various report, the case was handed over to the police although Bobrisky made light of the reports.






FG disowns NCC, telecoms operators on tariff hike




ABUJA — Minister of Communications, Mr. Adebayo Shittu, yesterday, absolved the Federal Government of complicity in the bid by the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, to increase the price consumers pay on data services. The Minister distanced his ministry from the controversial data tariff increase, denying that it authorized it.

This came as the Senate also, yesterday, condemned in totality the planned tariff increment and asked network providers to immediately stop implementation of the new tariff billed to take effect today. Reacting, telecoms regulator, the Nigerian Communications Commission, NCC, announced immediate suspension of the new minimum pricing template for data services by mobile operators in the country, explaining that its decision was informed by the need to make more consultations. Speaking on RayPower FM’s Fact File programme, yesterday, Adebayo maintained that the Federal Government never issued any directive to either the regulator, the NCC, or the telecommunications operators in the country authorizing increases in prices of data from today as claimed. I wasn’t consulted — Shittu Shittu insisted that he was never consulted before the announcement was made, stressing that the government did not authorize operators to raise tariffs. He, however, assured Nigerians that the government would look into the matter and continue to protect their interests. “I can tell you that I was never a party to it (data tariff hike). Government never gave any such instruction. This government believes in democratic process and we would continue to protect the interest of Nigerians,” he said.

I’m not scared of competition –DJ Moonlait




After making a name in the South South region, Queen Udeme, popularly known as DJ Moonlait, tells Saturday Beats that she is ready to take over Lagos
How long have you been a disc jockey?
I have been doing this for four years. I thank God for the parents I have. The moment I told my father I wanted to be a DJ, he encouraged me. He gave me money to buy an instrument. At parties too, my father sometimes comes on stage to cheer me up, introducing me as his daughter. I played at the weddings of my two elder brothers and my sister’s child dedication ceremony.  My family members are happy that I am a DJ. When they see a man with me, they often ask if he knows I am a DJ. They don’t want a man who is not interested in what I do.
Was your father into music before?
He has never done music, but in the past, he used to anchor events as a Master of Ceremonies. They would give him drinks and write him official letters to be the MC at the event, but there was no money in it then; he was just doing it for the fun. He likes entertainment and he has even encouraged me to try singing. But I don’t think I want to go into that.  My younger brother sings classical music and I have also done classical music before. My elder sister was into music before she got married.
Don’t you think marriage could affect your career?
As a strong believer, God says He would give to me all my heart desires. Also, a man who loves me must allow me to do what makes me happy. I am deeply into this and I expect him to support me since he met me as a DJ.
Did you study music in school?
I had B.Sc in Computer Science at the Rivers State University of Science and Technology. I was very reserved in the university; I kept to myself. I was not even going to social events as a student. I never knew I would be a DJ until 2012. Before then, I worked for over a year. I just noticed they called me a DJ even when I had yet to think of it. It was my church members that told me to give it a thought.  I went into disc jockey because I felt I could mix tapes. I used to travel a lot by road and in the bus, I often came across uninteresting mix tapes played by the driver. Then, the person who taught me how to be a disc jockey, DJ Big Joe, advised that I had to be going out at night. For the first set of night outings, I fell sick and there were times I slept in the club while others were having fun. I have had to quarrel with my boss many times because he didn’t allow me to go home when I insisted. But I got used to it gradually. Now, sometimes, I don’t sleep at night even when I am not in the club.
Did your background contribute to what you do?
Yes, my background really helped me because I grew up in the church and I played instruments. When someone taught me how to play the keyboard, my dad went ahead to buy me a keyboard. I started playing the drum later.
How did you feel the first time you manned the stage?
I was shaking. It was a wedding ceremony at Port Harcourt; it was not really a big event. My boss just left me all alone to play and it was the first time the people saw a female DJ. Since it was strange to them, people were not responding. For the first ten minutes, people were not paying attention but things changed later and I became the talk of the town. I am like the first female DJ in Port Harcourt.
What makes you unique?
I play music to thrill my crowd; I know how to carry the audience along. Some people don’t really care about how their fans feel.
What’s the major difference between being a DJ in Port Harcourt and in Lagos?
It is competitive here in Lagos but I don’t really care about that. I am here to stay and I am doing well. Lagos is Nigeria, whether we like it or not. Lagos is the hub of entertainment; I have already built a brand in Port Harcourt but I need to reach out to more people or a bigger audience.
Is your boyfriend proud of what you do?
I just left a relationship, but all the people I dated since I became a DJ were supportive. Some of them would come to work with me and wait till I was done. Though they had friends or people around them who questioned the relationship, they always stood their grounds. But as time goes on, I see myself reducing night events.
The way we look at things is wrong. Bankers go to work in the morning and come back late at night. They do that every day. But disc jockey is just for the weekends when there are jobs. I have Monday till Friday to rest or do other things. The mentality of people needs to change; they should understand that DJs have more time than any other professionals.
Are you not afraid of competition from the likes of DJ Cuppy, Lambo and other more established female DJs?
I have heard of them all but I only see myself. I want to be the number one DJ; I want to take this to the highest height.  The last show I played before I came to Lagos was the Miss Niger Delta in December. I have been their DJ for three years now. I performed at the African Fashion show in 2014 in Bayelsa State alongside Jimmy Jatt. Since I lived there, people called me for most events in the Niger Delta region. I have a brand there already, people know me well.
How did you get the name, DJ Moonlait?
When I was thinking of a name, my boss told me there should be something about me that would bring about the name. Immediately I opened the door, my complexion reflected and the next thing he said was, “see moonlight oo.” I love the name so much, though many people have urged me to change it. Even when I joined Rhythm 96.7 in Port Harcourt, they tried to make me change it to my first name, Queen. According to them, it would give a feminine touch.  I joined Rhythm FM in 2012 and I worked with them until I left Port Harcourt. But whenever I visit Port Harcourt, I still go there to play. I have a good relationship with them.
What other things do you do?
I have a boutique, but my work as a DJ is gradually moving me away from it. The business is still there in Port Harcourt and I have people helping me out.
How often do you cook?
I don’t really cook but I cook well. There was a time I slept off and the food got burnt. I was very tired as I did four jobs that weekend. By the time they woke me up, the food had gone.
Do you believe that most women in showbiz are promiscuous?
I think it has to do with individuals; I am not like that. If I am in a relationship, I am in a relationship; I don’t play games.

Kidnappers tortured us over expired ATM card ─Victim

A businessman identified as Fortune, who was kidnapped alongside his childhood friend, Jane, on May 11, 2016, said they were tortured for giving their captors expired ATM card.
Fortune, who was rescued alongside with Jane by operatives of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps in Rivers State, said they were kidnapped after his stolen car was recovered by the police.
He explained that he had called Jane to escort him to Kalla Police Station, adding that they were accosted by the hoodlums on their way to retrieve the car from Kalla Police Station.
Disclosing that their captors took them to a forest somewhere in Igwuruta in Obio/Akpor LGA, Fortune said they inflicted injuries on his head and body when they discovered that the machine at the bag could not release money for them.
He said, “At the long run, we discovered that we were somewhere around Igwuruta, very deep inside the forest. Our kidnapper stabbed us, beat us and even took my expired ATM card. I have wounds all over my head.
“We stayed eight days in the kidnappers den. They continued to give us the beating of our lives when they discovered that the ATM card they used did not dispense money for them at the bank. It was clear that the ATM had expired, but they did not understand that.”
Fortune said he suspected that their captors were planning to use them for money rituals, recalling that they (the kidnappers) took them to a place in the bush where a huge fire was prepared.
He said, “At a point, while we were taken round the bush blindfolded, they took us to a particular place where I sensed a huge fire and their communication indicated that we were at a place where human parts were used for money rituals.
“It was in the night and I felt that someone came close and they later moved us inside the forest. I believed what saved us from the ritual aspect was that Jane was in her monthly period. That was when we were made to trek about two hours before they allowed us to rest.”
On how they got to a point where operatives of the NSDCD rescued them on Saturday night, Fortune said the argument on the sharing formula for the N500, 000 ransom paid to the kidnappers by his younger brother gave them (the victims) a moment of respite as the hoodlums began to move them out from the thick forest.

I am not Buhari’s in-law –Zakari


Acting Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission, Mrs. Aminat Zakari
The Acting Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission, Mrs. Aminat Zakari, has said that the commission is awaiting reports of the police investigations into bribery allegations against some resident electoral commissioners and other staff of the commission.

Zakari, who disclosed this in an interview with LMP in Abuja on Friday, said INEC was waiting for security agents to provide tangible evidence against those involved.

The acting INEC Chairman, who said she had the capacity to be substantive INEC Chairman despite being a woman, denied claims that she is President Muhammadu Buhari’s in-law.

Zakari confirmed that security agents and INEC had received petitions against some RECs, but refused to give the number and identities of the commissioners involved.

Reacting to bribery allegations against some RECs, she stated, “Everybody makes allegations about bribery, or about somebody being bribed. Anybody can make the allegation, unless it’s proven by the security agencies or the court, INEC does not take action.

Speaking on those that had been picked up by the security agencies, he stated, “Unless they (security agencies) give us anything in writing, we just leave it as it is until their investigations are over.”

Zakari, who dismissed an insinuation that she could not effectively perform as INEC Chairman because of her gender, said she was not desperate to retain the job in a substantive capacity.

She stated, “I am a human being first. I have the capacity. If I have the ability to do something and there are ways and means of achieving your targets. You don’t rely on your brain alone. You have other people to rely on. I have done administration. I have worked in organisations that demand accountability.”

The INEC acting chairman explained that she was not appointed commissioner in INEC by Buhari, adding that former President Goodluck Jonathan had appointed her.

“I can’t say the General (Buhari) is my in-law. I am not married to his son. My daughter is not married to him. That is what I understand about being an in-law, but obviously, in life, you have acquaintances, people you have known,” she said.

Adding that Buhari was not known for nepotism, she said, “God decides who becomes (a) leader; if God decides I would be the one to continue, I will have to do my best.”

She stated, “I did not lobby for it (acting chairmanship). I had packed all my things out of INEC; I wanted to leave on the 30th (of June).

“I was just called on my way home as the chairman (Jega) handed over to Ambassador Wali. When I was called that the Head of Service was looking for me and I said, ‘what for?’ and I just continued driving. I was by Bullet House by the time I got the call and I just continued driving.

She also disclosed that the commission had sent some staff from its headquarters to Rivers State to assist in sorting out documents demanded by the state electoral tribunal.
