Sunlight Detergent’s Alarambara brings drama to you on radio!

Posted: 06 Mar 2015 01:23 PM PST

Money! Power! Friendship! Men! The laughter! The tears! Tips on laundry and cleaning! And the five beautiful, young women who live through it all! Sounds like the plot for a TV show, right? 

Well, Unilever's Sunlight, the 2-in- 1 Detergent that delivers sensational cleaning and all-day fragrance to all your laundry, brings you all this and more on a sensational radio drama series




A Yoruba language production, Alarambara shines the spotlight on five friends, young, fun-loving women who face the modern challenge of balancing the demands of the home front and all aspects of their lives 
Nollywood star, Mosun Filani is Sisi Oge, the lead character whose advice and great tips help to keep her friends together – flighty Anike, the slightly naïve Iyawo, aspiring flirt, Bisi and Iya Alaje whose avowedlove of money will soon get her into hot water with her husband.
Because it is true-to-life, Alarambara from the get-go, shows how an action as seemingly minor as choosing a detergent for one's laundry needs can have wide-reaching consequences as Anike and Iyawo discover in the maiden episode, Laws of Attraction.
Meanwhile, Iya Alaje whose prior announcement of money being her new paramour and her pursuit of it rocks the boat of her marriage in episode two, Birds of a Feather. And it is a crisis that reaches its crescendo with the Baba of the house announcing his own plans to bring in a second Iyawo.But guess who comes to the rescue?
In Aso Ebi Palava, the trouble for our ladies now wears a different colour and has moved from the home scene to a wedding setting as the title suggests.
Already airing on select radio stations across the West of Nigeria and with thirteen five-minute episodes in all, Alarambara is set to become the ratings sensation of the current season of Yoruba radio.
So, keep your ears open and let Sunlight in. Catch up with Alarambara radio drama series on the following stations:

Update on court case between Tinubu vs AIT - court grants Tinubu accelerated hearing

Posted: 06 Mar 2015 11:44 AM PST

Read the press statement below...
In a motion Exparte filed before an Ikeja High Court on Friday March 6th 2015, the court granted an accelerated hearing for motion on notice in the case of defamatory and libelous documentary aired on DAAR Communications, AIT. The granted accelerated hearing comes up on Monday March 16, 2015.
The exparte motion brought before  Ikeja High Court - sought an order of interim injunction restraining  the respondent, AIT whether by itself, agents, privies and or other persons from producing  or continuing to broadcast, airing, or continuing to reproduce any defamatory documentary against the applicant which AIT started to broadcast on Sunday 1st of march , 2015 and has been repeating on a daily basis since then,
Pending the airing and determination of the motion on notice for interlocutory injunction dated 5th March ,2015  filed in this suit.
 
The motion further noted as a fact that damages would not adequately compensate applicant/claimant if this ex-parte order is not granted. It prayed that the res of this suit may be extinguished if the ex-parte order is not granted. That there is real, imminent and urgent threat and danger of continuing to decimate the person and integrity of the applicant by the respondent by continuing to air the offensive broadcast if the ex-parte motion is not granted. That unless this application is granted, the defendant will not relent or suspend the broadcast of the said libelous documentary and that it is in the interest of justice to grant this application.
 
The legal effect of the filing and notification of the pendency of a law suit under the legal doctrine of lis pendens is that all parties should exercise extreme caution particularly restraint in continuing with the act complained of. This is the minimal requirement of any law abiding citizen.

This duty also extends to other members of the society who are expected to refrain from aggravating the damage complained of or in any way contributing to the quantum of damage. It takes on a more compelling dimension in this instance where the claimant has applied for injunctive restraining orders against the material complained against.

The contrary can hardly be argued against the fact that affront to the judicial institution attracts criminal implications.
 The Tinubu legal team is led by Chief Wole Olanipekun, SAN. Dr. Tunji Abayomi is also part of the legal team.

Fayose condemns Lagos APC 1-Million-Man March, Says; "Buhari has vindicated me"

Posted: 06 Mar 2015 07:34 AM PST

Press statement from Ekiti state governor...
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has described the planned One-Million-Man March by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos as a plot by the party to cause chaos and pandemonium in the State, so as to take the minds of the public away from the lies they told about the health status of the party's presidential candidate, Major General Mohammadu Buhari (rtd). 
The governor also said that he had been vindicated by Buhari, having admitted that he actually travelled to the United Kingdom to rest and that he visited his doctors.

According to a statement issued on Friday, by the governor's Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, "walking the streets of Lagos by the APC won't remove the fact that the party is a congregation of liars and deceitful people, who can never be trusted with the resources of Nigeria and its people."

Fayose who insisted that Buhari was not healthy enough to govern Nigeria said; "A man who campaigned for four weeks, speaking for less than one hour in all the rallies put together and needed to rest for 15 days should just stay at home and be playing with his grandchildren rather than struggling to take up a job that he does not have the required mental and physical strength to do."

He said; "They brought in Buhari like a thief in the night and now they want to put Lagosians into more hardships by blocking major roads all in the name of a phoney one-million-man match. "Why not hold their rally in a designated place instead of embarking on a match that will cause chaos and hardships in the state?"

 On Buhari's admisson that "he just went off for a couple of weeks to rest," Fayose said; "who do we now believe? APC said Buhari went on working visit to UK while Buhari himself said he went to UK to rest. "When asked by press men whether or not he ever visited any hospital in UK, Buhari said: 'What is wrong for me to go the hospital?'

 "By this statement from Buhari himself, it is clear that APC and its lying leaders tried to fool Nigerians, lying so brazenly and using fake pictures to authenticate their lies. "Even though there is nothing wrong in Buhari going for medicare abroad, afterall he should be seeing his doctors more often at his age, it is shameful that APC lied so brazenly trying to cover up the obvious reasons Buhari travelled for 15 days.

"What is wrong is the lies told to defend Buhar's trip to the UK to rest and seek medicare.The fake pictures of Buhari walking the streets of London, the fake Tony Blair picture and the use of pictures taken in Transcop Hilton, Abuja and claming that the pictures were taken in London is the main issue.

"Most importantly, presenting Buhari to us as a superhuman, who can never fall sick is what is wrong and Nigerians are expecting Buhari to apologise for all the lies told in an attempt to cover up the real reasons he (Buhari) travelled secretly to UK."

There's still trouble in paradise? Lol (photos)

Chris Brown wanted a baby for years with Karrueche...she wanted a ring first

Posted: 06 Mar 2015 06:39 AM PST

According to a report by TMZ, Chris Brown had wanted to have a baby with Karrueche for 2 years but she wanted the ring 1st. Now, a woman who didn't mind has beat Kae to it. Read the report below.
Chris Brown's been jonesin' to be a daddy for a long time, and tried to get Karrueche Tran to be the baby mama -- but before there was a bun in the oven, she wanted a ring on her hand. Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Chris and Karrueche had the baby talk frequently for at least the last 2 years -- and she was down to have a tiny CB ... IF he would make her an honest woman.
We're told KT feels strongly about marriage before kids, and stood her ground with Chris. Although he stepped up with a couple of diamonds last Christmas -- he couldn't close the deal ... since they weren't engagement rings. 
Karrueche was also worried about derailing her budding acting career. Even though she wasn't ready yet ...we're told Karrueche still thought she and Chris would have kids together in the future. As one source put it, she's "devastated he did this" with a side chick.
Like the lady said ... "One can only take so much."

The problem with Nigeria is mismanagement-Obasanjo

Posted: 06 Mar 2015 05:45 AM PST

Former President Obasanjo says the problem with Nigeria is mainly the mismanagement of our resources. He said this during his 78th birthday lecture which held at the Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library in Ogun state yesterday March 5th
"I am an incurable optimist about this country, and may be because I have seen a little bit in my short span of life, a little bit of what is possible and a little bit of what can go wrong and what can be made to go wrong. Maybe, that is why I am an incurable optimist and I believe that all will be well in this country, we have no choice anyway, all has to be well.


My concern is that we have too many think tanks, we need more of do-tanks. The point is we can do and we have no reason why we can't do and we have also seen that one individual can make a difference. There is no reason why any Nigerian child, at this point in time, should not have basic education, food and nutrition, and not only Nigeria child, any Nigerian should not go to bed without food. We have the resources to achieve all that. If we are not achieving it, does not mean we don't have the resources, it is because we haven't managed our resources well." he said
