Man dies during sex in Calabar

It was a tragic end to Ete Samuel who lives at No. 14 Ekpo Abasi lane in Calabar, Cross River State as he gave up the ghost during a marathon sex with his love bird in a short time spot.

It was gathered that Ete Samuel as he was popularly called is married with kids but his animalistic zeal was so uncontrollable that he was fond of abandoning his family to satisfy his sexual orge with ladies of easy virtue at red light joints.

What the ace music producer told City People magazine when asked about his deal with Kanye's label, G.O.O.D Music, where he's signed as a producer
Don Jazzy:

I am still signed to G.O.O.D Music, but in order for me to be able to concentrate on building the artistes that we have here, I wouldn't be able to give my 100% in the work I have to do in NY. In New York, the music and orientation is different. I can sit down there and say I'm trying to make an album for Kanye West, and it takes me longer because the level of music there is different from the one here. Kanye West has like 100 producers lined up at his beck and call, and it is not like I am priority. So I'll be spending a lot of money staying in the States when I can return home and be making money as well as grooming more artistes. And it's very easy these days. I can work here and once I'm done, and feel it's something that would suit Kanye West, I'll just email it to them, and if they want to use it, they'll use it and if they don't, they will tell you to try again.

Blackout @Abuja Airport grounds flights, leaves passengers stranded

Runway lights at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja went off yesterday evening stalling the landing and taking off of planes. All the international planes that were meant to land at the airport in Abuja yesterday were re-routed to Lagos and Port Harcourt. Lufthansa, British Airways, and Air France flights had to land in Lagos where passengers where offered accommodation, while an Arik Flight coming from Port Harcourt was forced to return to PH.

This is the third time this year that blackouts will be recorded at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport, and they are yet to find a permanent solution to it. I think the aviation industry needs a total overhauling; starting with the resignation of the minister in charge of the sector!

The rescued newborn

A farm dog was hailed a hero after it was discovered that he protected a two-week-old baby abandoned by the mother under a bridge in Winkongo, near Bolgatanga in the Upper East regional capital of Ghana.

Officials say the dog spent the night watching over the child under the bridge. The dog had gone missing for hours and the owner sent out a search party into the forest to find him.

K-Solo and Kike on their traditional wedding day

Press statement from K-Solo's reps

Over the past three days, I have been inundated with phone calls, text messages and emails from fans, friends, family members and well wishers from all over Nigeria and abroad over allegations of wife battery, assault and thievery by my wife, Mrs. Kikelomo Oyeniyi, as contained in an interview she granted City People Magazine.

I make bold to say that as much as no union is without its own trials and tribulations, I have never laid hands on my wife and will never because have got sisters and a mother.

Mrs Kikelomo Oyeniyi claimed in an interview this week that her husband of just six months, top music producer, K-Solo, battered her through out their short-lived marriage..to the extent she lost her pregnancy (If you missed it, read it HERE). Now, we have photos to back up some of her claims. More when you continue...
