Taxi Driver (Oko Ashewo) InCinema On Friday...See Premiere Pictures

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 12:26 PM PST

The premiere of the much talked about movie, Taxi Driver (Oko Ashewo) held over the weekend at FilmHouse Cinema Apapa. The movie which stars Femi Jacobs, Saka, Odunlade Adekola, Ijeoma Grace Agu and others has been generating a lot of excitement because it's the first time the three will be acting together in a movie in a predominantly English language movie. Besides, Odunlade who has become the king of mass market will be making cinema debut in cinemas for the first time. It remain to be seen whether he can translate the mass market appeal to the cinema. 

 

Taxi Driver (Oko Ashewo) tells the story of how Adigun copes with dealing with the multitude of odd characters he comes across working at night from Delia the queen prostitute, to Kakanfo the unseen vigilante, the notorious assassins 'three wise men', to the Godfather, Baba Mistura and many more interesting characters that ply their trade in Lagos at night.
A strong contender as one of the most beautifully shot film ever, to have come out of Nigeria. This dark comedy story brings a rich mixed bag of emotions from love to greed to betrayal, shenanigans, contradictions and self-discovery.

The movie directed by Daniel Emeke Oriahi will be in cinema across Nigeria from Friday, November 13.
Speaking on the movie, Dom Omope, the in-house producer at FilmOne said, Taxi Driver (Oko Ashewo) is the last of three films I have produced this year as head of film production at filmOne and it's by far my most ambitious of all.
Taxi Driver (Oko Ashewo) presented us with a great and refreshing opportunity to create something visually stunning and standout in Nollywood.
We are really excited about this moment in Nollywood's history where FilmOne is at the fore- front of the creation of cinema films to add more richness and diversity to the industry.
The movie which will be in cinemas across Nigeria from this Friday, November 13 will see the iconic 1980s Peugeot 504 Lagos Taxi with a miniature 'eyo masquerade' mounted on the bonnet touring the cinemas with some of the leading actors.
The movie which has been described as a good mixed of talent and ambition by movie critics is expected to be a big box office hit.

Suspended FIFA President Sepp Blatter hospitalized

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 12:49 PM PST

Sepp Blatter, the suspended president of soccer's world governing body FIFA, is spending the week in a Swiss hospital following a stress-related incident, according to his personal spokesman Klaus Stohlker. Blatter, 79, had originally undergone tests and planned to stay home, but his doctors elected to keep him under observation in hospital over the weekend, said the spokesman.

Stohlker added that Blatter, who is serving a 90-day suspension imposed by FIFA's disciplinary body in October, is doing well and "fully working on his fight against the ethics committee.

In a statement relayed by Stohlker on Wednesday, Blatter said: "I'm the elected president of FIFA, elected by the FIFA Congress and its 209 members, and no committee can replace me." Blatter, who has denied any wrongdoing, is accused of making a "disloyal payment" of 2 million Swiss francs ($1.99 million) to Michel Platini, who is currently suspended from his role as head of European soccer, in 2011, and cutting a television rights deal that was detrimental to FIFA.

Photo: 3-year-old DJ wins South Africa's Got Talent 2015

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:43 AM PST

Three-year-old Oratilwe Hlongwane, popularly known as DJ Arch Junior, was on Sunday, 8th November, crowned the winner of South Africa's Got Talent. The youngest ever! The talented toddler whose father Glen is a part-time DJ and professional gymnastics teacher walked away from the popular talent show with $35,000 prize money. 
 
His mother, Refiloe Marumo, credits his astounding success on the decks to his father Glen Hlongwane's decision to buy an iPad for his then unborn son.
 
Mr Hlongwane had planned to download educational apps to speed up his child's education but also downloaded a disc jockeying app for himself. But when he was just one-year-old, the talented youngster learned how to use the gadget and started fiddling about with his father's DJ app. 
 
The youngest DJ rose to stardom in December after his father posted videos of him mixing a popular house tune and it went viral. Glen and Refiloe said Keri Hilson, The Game , Bow Wow, among others recognised his star power.

     "They saw his video and posted about him on twitter saying this kid is going to be famous,"
Shortly after his son's win, Mr Hlongwane admitted he was "blown away" by his performance.
     "You know, for a three-year-old I'm just blown away. Never mind him winning the competition, the fact he stood on stage, did a set, finished it and still clicked stop. I don't know any other three year olds who would stand there without their parents."
 
Hlongwane, however,  insists his son is just a regular kid who attends creche and enjoys being outdoors with his friends.
 
DJ Arch has been booked for his first international gig- Botswana's Annual Kid Festival which will be held this coming weekend.

Mofe & Jessica Duncan spearhead oral health campaign with Beaconhill Smile Clinic

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:17 AM PST

Newlywed couple Mofe and Jessica Duncan are championing an oral health campaign in partnership with Beaconhill Smile Clinic (Nigeria's 1st 7-day Dental Practice). On Friday September 25, 2015, they were at the Silverbird galleria, Victoria Island to educate people on the need for regular dental check-ups while the teams from Beaconhill Smile Clinic and Kleinburg Medical centre were thereto offer free dental and medical check-ups respectively.




According to Mofe Duncan, "there are various languages on this earth, but a SMILE is universal. The aim of this campaign is to create awareness on the need for regular dental check-ups in Nigeria and also educate people on the role aesthetic dentistry plays in improving self confidence.
In Nigeria, we don't have a preventive dental culture, we wait until we have a toothache before we visit the dentist. 

Beaconhill sponsored this cause as a part ofits Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), to change the face of dentistry in Nigeria. We want people to know that prevention is better and cheaper than treatment".

The free services provided included the detection of caries, assessment of mouth odour, blood pressure checks, instructional programmes, and consultations with dentists.
Following the dental check-ups, participants were given referral notes to their respective dentists.

Like Londoners, Lagosians deserve respect: Lagos Govt replies Economist

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 08:00 AM PST

Lagos state government has released a statement replying international magazine, The Economist, who published an article some days ago criticizing Lagos governor, Akinwunmi Ambode, saying he was full of excuses and had few solutions to the persistent traffic gridlock being experienced in Lagos in recent times.

The state government queried The Economist for criticizing Ambode over his approach in managing traffic in Lagos while forgetting to criticize the approach of LASTMA officials during Fashola's administration. They asked the UK magazine to stick to strict journalism rather than the form of journalism where they try to force their opinion on others. The full statement after the cut




The Lagos State Government has taken note of an article in the latest edition of The Economistmagazine entitled "Paralysed: Why Nigeria's largest city is even less navigable than usual" and has considered a rebuttal necessary, in view of the bile and bias contained in it.

The said article has since gained frenetic, orchestrated spread in both social and traditional media in Nigeria, helped in part, ostensibly, by a push from a recalcitrant legion of traducers still struggling with the reality of a new helmsman whose idea of progress in Lagos State factors in electoral promises and respect for human dignity.

If we excuse the fact that the offensive article in The Economist came out last weekend just about the time that Lagos State Government has added some bite to its security and traffic management efforts, what shall we call the curious 'culling' of the said article by some local media? For only last Friday, the media had widely reported Governor Akinwunmi Ambode's comprehensive enforcement effort on traffic management, which in a matter of days has already started yielding positive results and wooing converts to the Ambode cause.

Is it not painfully obvious that fifth columnists have hijacked this one-sided reportage in The Economist that failed to take into account the bigger picture of an emerging reform policy, designed to address the larger concerns in the management of security, traffic and the environment? If we were to conclude hastily, like the article did, we would have described the magazine's effort in the same words it once famously used as "an unpleasant nose-to-stranger's-armpit experience."

But we won't necessarily query the original motive by asking "what is it about foreign correspondents that makes them believe they are the ultimate authority" on a city they have only covered for a few years, as India's Swarajya magazine did last year in taking The Economist to the cleaners when it ran a harsh report on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's appearance at Madison Square Garden in the United States.

However, because the magazine got its report on Lagos wrong on every score, what is important is to deconstruct the fallacies therein:

Firstly, The Economistclaimed Governor Ambode cut the powers of "traffic controllers by banning them from impounding cars" and "officers have refused to enforce the rules." This is inaccurate and preposterous.

In July, what the Governor did was to task the officers of the Lagos State Traffic Management Authority (LASTMA) to release to the owners hoards of impounded vehicles that had clogged LASTMA offices for several months or years without claims or retrievals. What's the use of turning a government agency into a junkyard thereby blocking space for other offending vehicles that could be taken in?
The Governor also enjoined them to choose booking offenders through a ticketing system backed by the same type of technology used in licensing and tracking vehicles instead of impounding the vehicles as first option. If technology could work for vehicle licencing and tracking, why should we be timid of exploring a similarly convenient option that saves time and money and shows a more people-friendly approach to law enforcement?

Both considerations, of course, arose out of the campaign promises that the governor made to voters. But to The Economist, this is inadequate and anything that falls short of a show of force and dehumanizing traffic offenders is unacceptable to this international magazine that used to stoutly stand for human rights and civic engagements.

That The Economistsees nothing wrong in recalcitrant officers refusing to carry out a directive by their employer is as surprising as it is shameful. Shockingly still, the veil finally came off this curious article when it states that by choosing a compassionate approach to enforcement, Governor Ambode is less competent and has deviated from his predecessor's template. But what legacy has The Economistbequeathed to former Governor Babatunde Fashola? "Cars were terrified into order by a state traffic agency, LASTMA, whose bribe-hungry officers flagged down offending drivers."

This is clearly an uncharitable summation of traffic management under the last administration. It is disrespectful, even more condescending to the officers of LASTMA and to Lagosians in general for whom the magazine purports to be fighting.  In any case, if indeed some officers were corrupt in LASTMA, by The Economist's damning verdict, should Governor Ambode continue to maintain such a tainted template? Is this the magazine's idea of the end justifies the means or it is negligible because this is Africa?

Secondly, the magazine dismissed as mere excuses Governor Ambode's explanations that the rains and the unprecedented influx of 'internal economic migrants' and escaped insurgents from the North-East were major causative agents of worsened gridlock and a slight rise in crime in traffic within the metropolis.  It is curious how a magazine of this stature would ignore weighty intelligence reports from both the Assistant Inspector General of Police of the Zone 2 Command and the Lagos State Police Commissioner.

While the latter said at a press conference last month that as military intervention intensifies in the beleaguered North-East of Nigeria, insurgents are escaping and finding their ways into Lagos and a few other states, the latter said Lagos has witnessed an unprecedented influx of 'migrants' from other states in the last six months as harsh economic realities in the country bite harder, leaving 27 states struggling with payments of workers' salaries.
In a May 3, 2014 article, The Economist in 'The Tube Strike' publication had no qualms linking incessant tube strikes with disruptions in traffic situation in London, it even examined it along the larger socio-economic reality of the city. The magazine agreed that "in the past decade, passenger journeys have risen by 29%. As jobs became concentrated in central London, more people are traveling from outer suburbia…and that between 2003 and 2012 the average number of people entering the underground system in zone one – the most central – on a weekday morning rose by 23%, while the number entering in zone six rose by 41%."

But it refuses to accept that as the economies in many Nigerian states face sustainability challenge, the first point of call for internal migrants is Lagos where civil servants' salaries are not owed; the Internally Generated Revenue is larger than those of 31 states in Nigeria combined and the Gross Domestic Product is larger than those of 42 African countries combined.

Changes in demography could necessitate incessant strikes in London without The Economist recommending a "terrified into order" treatment that the magazine celebrates as the only language of enforcement in Lagos.

Is the magazine advocating different standards for treating people in London and Lagos? If it is called traffic management in London, why is The Economist advocating a show-of-force treatment for Lagosians?

Also, it alleges that "the biggest concern is that the gridlock is a sign of a breakdown in relations between security forces, government agencies and the new governor." Not only is this assertion unprofessional, it is equally reckless and slanderous.
The bile in this is unmistakable.

But it came a tad late as the Governor has since rolled out an effective, comprehensive security and traffic management solutions with the active participation of every security stakeholder like the Police, the Directorate of State Services (DSS), Army, Navy and Air Force.

On this solution that has since rolled out against every form of impunity on the roads, critical stakeholders like tank farm owners, and association of trailer, commercial motorcycles, tricycles, taxi and commercial bus owners have all pledged compliance to this method that favoured consultation and advocacy over force. Lagosians have since seen the difference and are full of commendation that the Governor they elected will get the job done without being a brute or playing to the gallery.

For the avoidance of doubt, the monthly Security Council Meeting, which has the leadership of every security agencies in attendance, has never failed to hold since Governor Ambode became governor five months ago. The Security Trust Fund under him is well embraced by the corporate partners. The Governor certainly has a most cordial relationship with all the security forces in the state and is in firm control of all of its enforcement agencies.

President Muhammadu Buhari won the April Presidential election in Nigeria in spite of The Economist's reluctant, tongue-in-cheek endorsement of his candidacy. We are also aware of how Boris Johnson, the Conservative London Mayor, won his reelection in 2012 in spite of The Economist's campaign that 'London deserved better' and the virulent accusation of the Mayor for dealing a blow on what the magazine called "London heritage and individual liberty" after Johnson decided to do away with some of his predecesor's mass transit and traffic policies.

Perhaps, it is high time that this vaunted magazine learnt to restrict itself to strict journalism rather than seeking to impose jaded views in a volatile political climate where, we dare say, the gluttonous lot can choke on their own bile, almost hoping that the elections leading to the emergence of the governor could be held over again.
Governor Ambode won a hard contest, at the polls and at the tribunal…up to the Supreme Court. He enjoys the full backing of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and majority of Lagosians who see in him a compassionate leader and competent manager of resources.

He has demonstrated his mettle by first getting the finances of the state back in shape, restructuring a choking debt exposure from 18% interest rate to 12.5%, thereby freeing N3bn every month for the state to put into other pressing use. He has paid out N11bn in pensions to those neglected since 2010; signed 2.500 C of Os; constituted a forward-looking cabinet that has hit the ground running; fixed more than 200 roads across the state in what he calls Operation Zero Tolerance for Pot Holes and has flagged off a remarkable initiative with Local Governments that will have 114 roads (two per each of the 20 Local Government Areas and 37 Local Council Development Areas) constructed with standard drainages, walk-ways and street lights.
This Thursday November 12, he is declaring open the BRT corridor that links Mile 12 to Ikorodu, which in itself is preparatory to the launch later this month of an ambitious roll-out of 450 new set of mass transit buses and a dedicated special BRT service that will be direct from Ikorodu to Victoria Island. He is lighting up the entire metropolis in a matter of weeks and is finalizing on a major waterways expansion project. All these and more at a time that he is fortifying the security apparatus with a set of brand new patrol vehicles and power bikes as well as three helicopters to assist in surveillance.

Governor Ambode's great plans for Lagosians are not in doubt and are already being unfolded. He will get on with it while insisting that like Londoners, Lagosians too deserve good things of life…with some respect!

Calls for censorship is on pornographic content on social media - House of Reps clarifies

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:41 AM PST

The House of Representatives says its call for censorship on social media is for telecommunications company to develop applications or softwares that will pull down all pornographic materials on Nigeria's social media. A statement from the House reads
"The House has prevailed upon the telecommunications service providers to either develop or acquire software that will block or filter-out certain images or contents that violate both moral and religious values in Nigeria.
Passing a resolution on a motion moved by Hon. Johnbull Shekarau calling for the censoring of social media, he prayed the House to urge the telecoms service providers to initiate a take-down procedure that will enable a swift removal of any pornographic materials when notified by network users. He advised that this could be done by dedicating a hotline that will receive and treat complaints.
The resolution passed on the motion by the House include:

• The Nigerian Communication Commission to create significant barriers to the misuse of mobile networks and services, phones and other devices used for the perpetration of such immoral contents. The House, however subscribed to the opinion of the mover of the motion that not censoring inappropriate and illicit material like pornography, sexual and homosexual ones on platforms such as YouTube, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter etc is a threat to the moral values and decency of the Nigerian society.

Gavin Rossdale 'was cheating on Gwen Stefani with their family nanny for 3 years' - new reports claims

Posted: 11 Nov 2015 07:51 AM PST

According to a new report by Us Weekly magazine, Gavin Rossdale cheated on wife Gwen Stefani with their family nanny for three years. Their report below...
"It was a very unhappy ending for Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale. Insiders exclusively reveal that the music super couple's 13-year marriage ended because of adultery: Rossdale's three-year relationship with the family's longtime nanny, Mindy Mann.
Back in February, Stefani, 46, uncovered Rossdale's long-term affair with Mann, who cared for the couple's three sons, Kingston, 9, Zuma, 7, and Apollo, 20 months.

At the time, the No Doubt frontwoman discovered explicit texts between Rossdale and the nanny — including nude photos of Mann and their plans to meet up for sex — on the family's iPad.

"The iPad was linked to Gavin's phone," a family source tells Us. "One of the other nannies discovered the exchange and told Gwen."

Mann was soon fired, but the Bush rocker, 50, insisted to Stefani that the exchange was simply "flirtation," one source explains. When he finally confessed to the affair months later, the "Used to Love You" singer made the decision to end their marriage. The couple announced their plans to divorce in August. 
The sexual relationship lasted for more than three years -- including the time period when Stefani was pregnant with Apollo.

"This was done right under Gwen's nose," a source tells Us.
