(MUST READ) “God Wants to take back The Talent He has Given You” - Prophecy For Wizkid From a Fan!

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 10:57 AM PST


Few hours ago, a certain Wizkid fan posted a prophecy on popular social media forum, Nairaland and the post has since generated a lot of buzz...

Check-Out the Prophecy below:

"This is a prophecy for Wizkid, God wants you back, he wants to take back the talent he has given you. He wants you to start singing for him. Thus saith the lord. God's eternal salvation plan confounds human logic. Humans expect salvation to come in ways humans normally experience it like through strong, powerful, authority figures.

God promises to bring salvation that will transform the world's power structures. Please this should be taken seriously, this is from me to you Wizkid.  You know I'm right, the dreams and the strange sensation of awe you experience most times, that's God, come to him and the joy you think you have now will be smithereens where his joy is"

"What Really happened the Night Michael Jackson died" - Dr Murray, the doctor jailed for His death Reveals!

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 10:43 AM PST



Conrad Murray's voice softens when he recalls the moment Michael Jackson reached out, clasped his hand and said in his soft falsetto voice: 'There are only four people in my family now. Paris, Prince, Blanket and you, Dr Conrad.'
It was, the 60-year-old doctor recalls: 'one of the happiest days of my life. This man who had been so lonely, who had spent so many  long nights telling me about his pain and anguish, finally felt he could trust someone in his life apart from his children.

'We were family. We loved each other as brothers.'
Unrepentant: Dr Conrad Murray speaks during his first interview after serving half of his four-and-a-half-year jailterm after being convicted of killing Michael Jackson


The remarkable exchange took place in Jackson's private suite of five rooms on the second floor of his rented £60,000-a-month Beverly Hills mansion. It was an area closed to all except the singer's three children and Dr Murray – his personal physician and private confidante.


Murray says: 'Michael trusted no one. The bed chamber smelled because he did not even let maids in there to clean. There were clothes strewn everywhere.

'Then he looked at me and said, "You know, for the rest of your life and my life our names will become inseparable."

'I asked him, "Michael, what do you mean?" and he smiled and said, "I am clairvoyant." '

Maybe he was. This brief but intense relationship has all but destroyed Murray's life and almost certainly defines it.

The heart surgeon, released from prison three weeks ago after serving half of a four-year sentence for killing pop superstar Jackson with an overdose of intravenous sedative, maintains he was not responsible for Jackson's tragic death.

And, in his first-ever interview, he remains unrepentant. 'I never gave Michael anything that would kill him,' he says tersely. 'I loved him. I still do. I always will.'

At a bulky 6ft 5in, Murray is a bear of a man, though he claims to have lost more than two stone in prison and says he feels 'every one of my 60 years'. Despite his public disgrace, he has huge charm and the self-assured authority – some might say bombast – of a physician whose lucrative private practice turned over more than £2.3 million a year.


Two weeks after their moving conversation, Murray stood over the singer's skeletal body as his friend lay dead on a metal trolley in a hospital emergency room.

And in what he now calls the 'utter nightmare' that followed the King of Pop's death, Murray was charged with giving the lethal injection of the anaesthetic propofol that caused Jackson's heart to stop, found guilty of involuntary manslaughter, stripped of his medical licence and sentenced to four years in jail.

In a vivid and compelling exclusive interview with The Mail on Sunday, Murray opens what he calls the 'floodgates of pain' as he talks for the first time about his intimate friendship with Jackson: 'You want to know how close we were? I held his penis every night to fit a catheter because he was incontinent at night.'
HOW I TOLD THE CHILDREN THAT THEIR FATHER WAS DEAD

'I found out the kids were at the hospital, they were in a room having pizza.

'I called for a team of psychiatrists. We spoke briefly about whether, if the children wanted it, it would be OK for them to see their father? I walked into the room. Paris looked at me and said, "Daddy's dead?" I said, "Yes."

'The children wailed. Paris cried, "I don't want to be an orphan! I don't want to be an orphan!" Mrs Jackson was there, La Toya was there, Jermaine was there, but I thought they acted cold.

'I was so worried about those children, they had no relationship with their mother. I didn't know what to do. But Paris is a remarkable child. I have never seen such mettle in a child that age.

'On the day he died, she sought me out in the corridor. I felt as if Michael was talking through her. She said, "My daddy died today. I know you did everything you could. If he didn't survive I know it's not because you didn't do everything you could."

'It breaks my heart that those children are now without the one person who loved them more than anything.

'I loved those children. I would love to sit down with them and tell them how much I cared for their father but I worry that their minds have been poisoned against me.'

For more than five hours, in a voice still thick with the lilting  tones of his native Trinidad, in a faceless hotel room in southern California he tells about Michael's perilous physical, mental and financial state and the singer's secret addiction to prescription drugs.

And he describes in shocking detail the full horror of Jackson's physical and mental descent 'into the abyss' as he fought to cope with the pressure of preparing for his This Is It comeback concerts at  London's O2 arena: 'By the end, Michael Jackson was a broken man.

'I tried to protect him but instead I was brought down with him.' Most poignantly, he talks about the tragic events of June 25, 2009, the last day of Michael's Jackson's life.

It is clearly a subject he still finds distressing. Murray's eyes fill with tears. 'This is so painful,' he says stifling a sob.

'It's difficult when you ask me about Michael. There's a void in my heart, a lingering pain. I miss him every day.'

Murray says that when he first began working with Jackson in 2006, he had no idea that the superstar used propofol to help him sleep.

But when he arrived in LA three years later to help him prepare for his comeback, he discovered that Michael had a personal stash of it.

'He told me there were doctors in Germany that gave it to him. I didn't agree with this at all, but Michael wasn't the kind of man you can say no to. He would always find a way.

'So I acquired propofol and gave it to him over a two-and-a-half month period as I weaned him off it, which I finally achieved three days before he died.

'He begged me for the drug because he wanted to sleep, because then he didn't have to think. He was in crisis at the end of his life, filled with panic and misery.

'I would sit with him when he  was on a propofol drip. It's a very fast-acting drug that disappears  from the body quickly. Fifteen minutes after the drug is administered, it's gone. I gave him very light,  light sedation.'

Surely, I ask, as a doctor who has sworn the Hippocratic Oath he had a duty of care to cause no harm to his patient? Surely, giving an addict the drug he craves broke every basic rule of care?

Murray's demeanour changes. His body tenses and he glares at me:  'I would never have recommended propofol to Michael.

'But when I  got there he was on it – he called it "milk" – and he needed to get off it. I wanted to help my friend.

'Michael was not addicted to propofol but I've since discovered he was addicted to other drugs, given to him by other doctors and which I was not aware of.'

Jackson, he insists, 'was in a  terrible state'. His 5ft 11in frame had wasted away to little over nine stone, he was suffering from chills, insomnia and mood swings.

He would turn up to rehearsals late and complained to Murray his performance was 'never more than 60 per cent'.

'Michael was a decrepit man. He was frail. I had to force him to eat, to drink fluids. He always ate the same meal: rice and chicken.

'He was under enormous pressure. The children told him they were tired of living in hotels and rented places, but Michael was broke.

'I am innocent': Dr Conrad Murray, seen arriving to his trial in 2011, claims he had nothing to do with Michael Jackson's death, despite being convicted

'I am innocent': Dr Conrad Murray, seen arriving to his trial in 2011, claims he had nothing to do with Michael Jackson's death, despite being convicted

'He told me his only major asset, his ownership of the Beatles back catalogue of songs, had been "mortgaged up to the hilt".

'He wanted to do the London shows and then buy a family home, probably in Vegas. But night after night he would tell me he didn't feel he had the capacity to do it. He said, "They are working me like a machine".

Murray claims executives from the London concert promoters AEG threatened his friend – a charge AEG denied in court.

'They came to the house. They said, "This house – we pay for it.  The popsicles the children are sucking on – we pay for them.

"The nine security guards, we pay for them too. We pay for the toilet paper he wipes his a** on.

"If he doesn't do these shows it's over. He's ruined. He doesn't have a cent. He will be on Skid Row." '

On the day he died, the singer returned home from rehearsals at around 1am.

Murray says: 'He was hysterical. He was begging me, "Please Dr Conrad, I need some milk so I can sleep."

'This went on for hours. I believe his insomnia that night was caused by withdrawal from demerol.'
MICHAEL'S DEATH WISH

'We talked about death and dying. Michael told me he wanted to be cremated and scattered somewhere nice and warm, and we talked about the coral reef off the Turks and Caicos Islands.

'He hated California because of the two child sex cases against him. His family ended up putting him in Forest Lawn Cemetery  in Los Angeles.'

Murray has filed an appeal against his conviction claiming, among other things, that another doctor had been giving Jackson vast amounts of demerol – an analgesic better known in this country as pethidine – without his knowledge.

His contention – made public now for the first time – is that Jackson was withdrawing from demerol on the night he died and that, when Murray was out of the room, the singer got up and injected himself with a lethal dose of propofol after Murray refused to give him the amount he had asked for.

He  explains: 'I had no idea Michael was getting demerol, which he had grown to love over several decades.

'I've used demerol in the emergency room. The maximum is 75mg that I would use. Michael was receiving as much as 300mg several times a week.

'That night he just couldn't sleep. I prescribed him drugs to help, including valium and lorazepam, but he was begging, pleading, close to tears. "I want sleep, please Dr Conrad, I need sleep."

'I told him, "This is not normal. What I've given you would put an elephant to sleep".

'In the other bedroom [Michael's private chamber], the police found an open bottle of lorazepam [an anti-anxiety drug]. They found tablets in his stomach. I didn't give him those. Michael took extra tablets. And he injected himself.'

Murray vehemently denies the claim by the prosecution in court that he placed Jackson on a propofol drip and left the room.

Instead, he says he 'reluctantly' gave the star a 25mg propofol injection, a 'minuscule' amount that would wear off in ten minutes, and sat by Jackson's bedside for more than half an hour as the singer finally drifted off to sleep.

'I received a phone call at 11.07am, and when I left Michael at 11.20am, he had a normal heartbeat, his vital signs were good.

'I left the room because I didn't want to disturb him.

'I believe he woke up, got hold  of his own stash of propofol and injected himself. He did it too quickly and went into cardiac arrest.

'When I came back in the room I knew instantly he wasn't breathing. I didn't panic. I felt and tried to  get a pulse. I tried the groin and the carotid artery. There was no pulse. I immediately started CPR. I've resuscitated thousands of people. This was my friend but I went into medical mode.'

In court, Murray was slammed by medical experts for not calling the emergency number 911 immediately, and for performing CPR on Jackson while he lay on the bed instead of moving him to the floor.  'I am a trained cardiac specialist, this is what I do,' Murray insisted. 'The bed was hard and Michael was slim. I have big hands. I placed a hand behind him and immediately started chest compressions.

'The chances were not hopeless. I could only have hope. I wanted my friend to make it.

When Jackson's head of security failed to answer his phone, Murray ran downstairs to scream for help. A bodyguard raced into the room.

'When paramedics came and they moved him to the foot of the bed they did precisely what I was trying to avoid. He had a saline intravenous in his leg and this was dislodged. It took them 25 minutes to put in a new one. He got a tube down his trachea. Someone kept pumping his chest.'

Even after an emergency crew arrived, Dr Murray refused to give up on his friend, riding in the ambulance with him to nearby UCLA Medical Center.

'I worked on him the whole way.  I wanted a sign of life. I couldn't give up. I save people. I'm a heart doctor. It's what I do. I wanted Michael back.
'HE JOKED ABOUT HAVING SEX WITH DEBBIE ROWE'

Dr Murray claims that he and Michael spoke about the parentage of the children, and even suggests that they have three different fathers.

'None of them are Michael's biological children,' he says. 'Michael told me he never slept with Debbie Rowe [the biological mother of Prince and Paris]. We joked that neither of us would want to have sex with her.

'He chose friends or business colleagues to help him. He told me he wanted to sever any genetic link to his family.'

What about Oliver actor Mark Lester's claims that he is the father of at least one of the children?

Murray says: 'I will not talk about this. If the children want to know,  I will tell them.

'There are some secrets I will take to my grave.'

'At the hospital, he had electrical activity. The heart was getting stimulation but the heart was not strong enough to get a pulse. He hadn't  flatlined.

'There was mild cardiac activity demonstrated on two echo-cardiograms. It was weakly contracting but not generating a pulse that was enough to generate life.

'I was in the emergency room, watching. They tried for an hour before they called it.'

Jackson was pronounced dead  at 2.26pm.

'He was 50 years old. It was just horrible. He was so young.' Murray buries his head in his hands. 'It was so terrible.' Tears begin rolling down his cheeks. 'It was so sad.'

Murray says he then had the task of telling Jackson's children that their father had died – after taking the advice of hospital psychiatrists.

'I walked into the room. Paris looked at me and said, "Daddy's dead?" I said, "Yes". 

'The children wailed. Paris cried, "I don't want to be an orphan! I don't want to be an orphan!"

'Mrs Jackson was there, La Toya was there, Jermaine was there.'

The unlikely pairing of Jackson, the child pop star from Gary, Indiana, and Murray, the dirt-poor maid's son from the British West Indies, began in 2006 when Jackson  took a temporary home in Vegas.

Murray, who had practices in Las Vegas and Houston, explains: 'I had treated the father of one of his bodyguards. Michael's children were sick, as was he, with a viral flu infection. I went to the house and gave Michael hydration with what we call a "banana bag", a bag of saline with added vitamins.

'I placed the IV in his arm and he said, "You are very skilful at that."  I replied, "That's what I do." '

The doctor retains the affable bedside manner and easy charm that  no doubt attracted Jackson; a man who by his own admission preferred the company of children to adults 'because they are the only ones who don't seek to take advantage'.

Murray is a self-confessed flirt (who has fathered seven children with six different women) and says with a grin: 'I've never smoked a cigarette in my life. I don't drink and I've never taken illicit drugs. My only weakness is a pretty face.'
Not his: Dr Murray says he knows Michael Jackson is not the biological father to any of his three children and that he never had sex with Debbie Rowe, mother of Prince Michael and Paris

The friendship developed rapidly. Jackson, smarting from his second child sex abuse trial in 2005 and vowing never to set foot again in his Neverland Estate, trusted no one.

'Michael lived like a recluse with his children. He was a prisoner of whatever home he was in,' Murray says. 'In the beginning we talked a lot about medicine. He was fascinated by human anomalies and congenital malformations. He was obsessed by the Elephant Man.

'I gave him a book called the  Idiot's Guide To The Body. He wanted to know everything: how many heart attack patients had I treated that day, what happens when someone flatlines .  .  .

'He told me other doctors hadn't been discreet. They would gossip about him.

'He liked me because I wasn't starstruck. The children loved me. We shared similar backgrounds.

'He had a very unhappy childhood and was beaten and abused by his father. I came from poverty and didn't meet my father until I was 25. We were both forgotten little boys.

'Michael had a lot of lingering pain. He would sing the song The Little Boy Who Santa Claus Forgot to me and say, "That's our song."

'As he grew to trust me he had someone to share his load. I was the keeper of his secrets.

'I protected him. I am only  speaking now because I have been unfairly vilified.'

Murray says Jackson often spoke of his loathing for his father Joe, who both physically and emotionally abused him as a child.

He accused  his mother Katherine of being equally to blame 'because she did nothing' to stop the years  of abuse at the hands of his family and others.

'He told me he believed he had been sexually assaulted by one  doctor while he had been under sedation. You name it, he had experienced it.'

Murray says that for the first two-and-a-half years of their friendship he treated the family for 'minor  ailments' which included Jackson's insomnia, and administered skin whitening cream to give him the 'porcelain' skin he craved.

The doctor rubbed cream into the pop star's back and bathed his feet.

'He transformed himself because he wanted to obscure where he came from. He wanted to look different from his family.

'He wanted porcelain, flawless skin. Those were his words.'

Murray insists he had no idea the star was a prescription drug addict.

He says: 'I confronted him only once. His veins were in a terrible state. I said, "Michael, I have never seen arms with such veins except in a drug addict."

'He looked back at me with big eyes and said, "Really, Dr Conrad?" I never asked again.
WE LOOKED AT GIRLY MAGS

Was Michael homosexual or attracted to children?

Murray says: 'I can't tell you everything. What I will say is that he and I would look at girly magazines.

'He liked skinny brunettes. He told me his whole life gay men had tried it on with him.

'He was uncomfortable with a lot of it. He said it was part of being in showbusiness.

'I don't think he was homophobic but I know he'd had some terrible experiences.

'He told me he felt safe being around me.

'He knew I wouldn't try anything.'
I TAPED UP HIS PLASTIC NOSE

'Michael had a prosthetic piece of plastic which he taped to his nose. I would help him tape it down. We had no secrets.

'He also used huge thick magnifying glasses to read and would buy those cheap reading glasses you get at the chemist.

'I was worried about him and booked an eye exam for him.  He never went.

'I said, "Michael, you have to get your eyes examined. I don't want you falling off stage in England."

'Most nights I would sit by his bed and read to him. He loved travel magazines and medical journals.'

'Perhaps I was naive, but I genuinely had no idea until I went to live with him. The Michael I knew in private was very different from the public image.

'He wasn't a pretentious man. At home he mostly wore pyjamas and the same pair of old black leather slip-on shoes.

'He was always running out of underwear. He wore white cotton briefs but would never let the maids in his room because he feared they would steal from him.

'One of his famous white gloves lay on the floor for weeks. I kept walking around it. He told me, "If I let a maid in that glove would be gone." '

Murray says that their friendship flourished through simple acts  of kindness.

'Michael never had anyone who cared for him. I asked him why he always wore socks. He showed me his feet. They were terrible. Fungus had penetrated into the skin. He had calluses that went all the way to the bone. He was in agonising pain.'

After Murray healed Jackson's feet the grateful singer taught him to moonwalk in the kitchen as a thank you.

Murray also assisted his friend in a more intimate way: 'He wore dark trousers all the time because after he went to the toilet he would drip for hours.

'You want to know how close Michael and I were? I held his penis every night. I had to put a condom catheter on him because Michael dripped urine. He had a loss of sensation and was incontinent.

'Michael didn't know how to put a condom on, so I had to do it for him.

'His room smelled terrible. I  told him, "Michael you can't live  this way, we have to get the maids in to clean the bedding." Reluctantly, he agreed.
ELIZABETH TAYLOR WAS MICHAEL'S 'REAL' MUM

'Michael told me that Liz Taylor was more of a mother to him than Katherine ever was.

'His father Joe Jackson was one of the destroyers of Michael, and Michael told me his mother was  an enabler.

'The Jacksons only ever wanted money from him. Three weeks before Michael died, Joe turned up at the house and was pummelling on the gate wanting Michael to sign an agreement for a pay-per-view television show for the Return Of The Jackson 5.

'Michael said to me, "I'm not in the Jackson 5. That's a thing of the past. I don't want to be a bank for my family any longer."

'Michael loved movies and Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers. We sat and watched every single Bond movie there was.'

'It was the most intimate thing but he trusted me. I was a doctor, so that sort of thing didn't bother me.'

Murray says that Jackson 'constantly' begged him to work for  him full-time. He says he rejected the advances because his practice was turning over more than £2.3 million a year.

But then Jackson agreed to the This Is It concerts at London's  O2 Arena starting in the summer  of 2009.

The 100 shows were guaranteed  to pull him out of debt and earn him a minimum of £200 million.

'He begged me to go with him to England to look after him and the children. He said he felt as if he might have a heart attack.

'The stress was terrible. The insomnia was bad. He was decrepit, wasted. He was breaking down.

'Physically and emotionally he couldn't cope. He wasn't looking  forward to going to London.

'He also had a hip condition, where the hip bone comes out of the socket. Michael wanted to know if I could arrange a hip replacement.

'He was worried, too, that the  promoters wouldn't keep their promise to make four films with him after the concerts.

'The first one was going to be Thriller in 3D. He didn't trust AEG. He called the executives snakes.'

Much has been made of the £100,000-a-month salary that Jackson agreed to pay Murray to go to London for a year.

But he says it was never about  the money.

'I never saw a penny. Not one dime. I agreed because Michael told me I'd meet kings and queens and all sorts of people I'd never get a chance to meet.

'My motivation was to help my friend and to have a break.

'We had already picked out houses. Michael had his place in the country and my house was down the road from his.'

Dr Murray never did get to meet kings and queens and live in the English countryside.

Instead, he now travels everywhere with bodyguards and refuses to reveal where he  is living because of death threats from grieving fans who have dubbed him Dr Death and Conrad Murderer.

It is a charge he earnestly and steadfastly denies.

When you hear him speak you are left in no doubt that, whether or not he  is telling the truth about what happened that night, he believes wholeheartedly in his own innocence.

'I did not kill Michael Jackson. He was a drug addict.

'Michael Jackson accidentally killed Michael Jackson.'

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 09:25 AM PST


 
Oh dear, koko master, D'banj and his boo of eight months, Jennifer Obayuwana are no longer together.
A new report from Maestromedia indicates so.
The news portal reports thus:
"Jennifer Obayuwana is the fashionista daughter of the very stylish Mr. John Obayuwana, the MD/CEO of one of Nigeria's topmost Luxury company, known to all as POLO LTD.
In fact Jenny or J-Wonder, like most who know her prefers to call her, is the very hardworking, globe-trotting Executive Director of the 5-star company.
Since she took up more powerful executive role in her father's company (which includes CAT Construction), which in a way she practically runs now, it has been an upward swing unprecedented for the brand, with many world renowned watch brands the likes of Rolex, Breguet, Cartier, Hublot, Gaga Milano etc coming on board and having very strategic relationship with Polo Ltd, all of these successes kudos to the gorgeous & hardworking Jennifer.
All the while she was having great successes on the business front, she was also seemingly having fun on the love front then with her then beau D Banj.
Since Dapo Oyebanji aka D banj, aka Banger Lee, the only Eja Nla in Nigeria let it slip sometime ago that he & Jennifer were in a love relationship, loads & loads of media frenzy followed the revelation.
To some then, it was like it was a match made in heaven; With D banj being the most visible Nigerian entertainer in the world and an eligible bachelor at that, whilst Jennifer, is also an eligible bachelorette, one that is being primed to take over her father's multimillion dollar rated company.
Everyone was thinking it would be like one of those happily ever after love stories we get to read about in all those novels. With many openly exclaiming how wow it was that finally, someone of Jennifer's pedigree was the one, that had finally won the heart of such a player as D banj.
 But alas, after only a few months of the whirlwind romance, which many had thought might have led to one of the weddings of the year, the steam in the love relationship seem to have totally evaporated, the once celebrated love has since waned and in its place just a platonic friendship remains; with both sides just there for each other, to support each other as friends any which way they can.
Jennifer, who only just returned a few weeks ago from a short course at the Columbia Business School, Manhattan, New York, USA where she had gone to brush up on her knowledge of business, preparatory for some bigger challenges ahead, has since moved on to pasture new.
According to some little information we could gather, the very very busy schedule of the duo, coupled with some 'other factors' might have been the reason(s) for the break-up. Now unlike sometimes ago in the immediate past, when it was always stress coupled with so much anxiety for Jennifer while the relationship was still hot hot, it has been more of bliss and contentment now for her now, since both have parted ways and moved on.

Governor. Fashola Wants The Nigerian Stock Exchange 'Renamed' After Lagos

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 08:15 AM PST


While speaking with journalists at the10th Lagos Executive/Legislative parley, Lagos State governor Babatunde Fashola demanded a review of the decree which changed the Lagos Stock Exchange to Nigerian Stock Exchange in 1977, noting that across the world, stock exchanges are named after their host cities and not the country. He asked that a similar trend should be followed in Nigeria.

Governor Fashola said;

"I think the time has come for us to begin to look at the legislation that was passed during the military administration that is decrees and acts. I think that was when the Lagos Stock Exchange became the Nigerian Stock Exchange, in unification for the country.

"No P*rn*graphy No Nollywood" – Nollywood Star Actress, Queeneth Hilbert Reveals..

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 06:55 AM PST

*Queeneth Hilbert
*Queeneth Hilbert


As much as Queeneth Hilbert, half-Nigerian, half-Lebanese, would like to reassure you she is an average girl next door everything about her depicts something extra-ordinary. From her looks to her mannerisms, there is a touch of uniqueness that stands her out.
As vulnerable as she looks, she is everything but a 'damsel in distress' as our readers will soon find out in this revealing chat. Often touted as one of the most beautiful girls in Nollywood, Queeneth talks about her journey into  showbiz, p*rnography in Nollywood and a whole lot of other issues..

How did you come about the name 'Queeneth Hilbert'?

Queeneth Hilbert is my name. Mine is Queeneth while my surname is Hilbert. I am half Nigerian, half Lebanese.
Is that why you display the Lebanese flag on your Blackberry status?
Well, I have many Lebanese friends and many of them have the Lebanese flag displayed on their Blackberry phones. I just thought it's cool so I use it too

Why not the Nigerian flag?

I can use any one I want to use. It has no special meaning to me. (laughing) should I change it?
But there is a story that you are not as close to your dad as you are to your mum. Why is that?
I am closer to my mum because I grew up with while it took a while to know my dad but that does not mean I have anything against my dad. Our relationship is father-daughter relationship.

You started with modelling, what informed your decision to go into modelling?

When I was small, many of my friends and cousins were going into modelling and that to some extent affected me. Besides, many of them thought I should go into it too because by age 15 I was already very tall and had a good slim figure for it. So I decided to give it a try.

Why did you go  into acting instead of modelling?

Back then I had a lot of modelling proposals. It started when I had a photo shoot. From the photo shoot a lot of agents saw what I could do and the offers started pouring in. Even when I was just 15 at the time.

Why so early, didn't it affect your education?

Not really. I started early because I had to make ends meet. I am a kind of person who doesn't like to be idle. Besides, I love being independent and being able to take care of myself.

Weren't your parents doing that?

Yes, they had what it takes to take care of me but I just don't like bothering anyone for anything, even my parents.

As a beautiful woman, what has your beauty cost you?

I'm a funny person and I don't see myself like that. When I wake up in the morning, I pray, take my birth, dress up and off to work. The way people talk about Queeneth being beautiful doesn't even occur to me. I don't see myself as such.

So, when did you realise you are a very beautiful woman?

I think that should be all my life because people never stopped telling me I am beautiful.

Has anyone ever gone beyond just appreciating your beauty or making passes at you?

Yeah, sometimes.

Can you share an experience?

There was this guy I met while boarding a flight from Abuja to Lagos. I was coming to shoot a film. The guy was sitting next to me in the plane and he got funny with me. He was so arrogant, rude and uncouth. And if there is anything I really hate it is arrogant guys. Even when I like a guy, I am not the type who goes about showing it because I like to hide my feelings.
Even when we landed in Lagos, and the company's car came to pick me, the guy was still disturbing me. Funny enough, when I got to the company for the shoot I found out'' that the guy owns the company. He was like: this girl again? What are you doing in my company? But I told him my mind. He later gave me the contract though but I just can't stand arrogant people.

That sounds like some sort of romance in the air, it couldn't have ended there?

Well, it did for me. After the shoot he became all caring, nice and even propose to me but his arrogant ways put me off completely.

When did you actually start acting?

That should be from 2012.

How many films have you done since then?

I can't remember, I think I lost count. Maybe 20-30 films.

How did you manage 20-30 films between 2012 to 2013?

Yeah, I did all that by managing my time and it is not like all the movies are out yet some take time.

Do you still do modeling on the side?

Not really. Acting has taken the bulk of my time and now just getting to the peak of my career in acting more modeling offers are coming in but for now I am only focused on my acting career. Later I will return to modeling.

Between modeling and acting which would you say is more rewarding and more fulfilling?

I will pick my modeling. Just thinking about the good times I had meeting people, going around the world makes it modeling for me. It goes down to the fact that I love pictures and modeling pays you more, with many more benefits. Acting isn't all fun. Some of your colleagues give you hard times, for good or bad reasons. I prefer modeling any day.

So, what are you doing, acting?

Modeling is more rewarding. I am just in acting now because I have always had passion for it.

You said you have done about 30 films. In how may did you take the lead roles and which are the most memorable to you?

I will say about 10. The most memorable of those are 'The Illiterate' and 'My Daughter, My Jewel' directed by Lancelot Imaseun.

P*rnogr*phy is gradually eating into Nollywood and some have said it makes the movies more real. What's your idea of P*rnogr*phy in Nollywood films?

Benson Okonkwo, my actor friend once said that and I think he is right. P*rnogr*phy makes our films more real. When you shoot in South Africa or Ghollywood, there's no movie you are going to do without emotion, love and sex. I don't call it P*rnogr*phy , I call it doing your job. If your script says you should do something, it is doing your job, Nollywood has no business doing movies if it cannot absorb P*rnogr*phy.

What of lesbianism in the industry?

I think why that is taking place now is because there are more girls than guys. Most of the girls who engage in this act are not in Nollywood to act, they are just there to cause trouble. They are all over the place but I don't think they are there to work.

Is it true that the Ghanaian actors are taking over from the Nigerian actors?

I think it is all about packaging. Not in terms of money or quality. The Nigerian actors don't have one mind and goal while the Ghanaians seem to have one mind with brotherly outlook. In Nigeria there is a lot of hate, jealousy and power tussles. In Ghollywood, you see Yvonne, Jackie, Nadia, all coming together to work together to do a film while in Nigeria you can hardly see the top acts doing something together because everyone feels they are too big for others. There is a lot of forming.

There is also an idea that Ghollywood are churning out more beautiful people than Nollywood these days?

That's not true. When people say they are finer, they are only talking about beauty not talent, right? In Nollywood, you cannot make it to the top simply because you are beautiful. Nollywood places higher value on talent than beauty. But in Ghollywood the competition is not as stiff as in Nollywood. There are so many beautiful girls in Nollywood that will not see stardom because they don't have talent. When you compare the two there are more beautiful girls in Nollywood and far more talents.

Can you actually do a s*x scene?

There's nobody that will actually do a s*x scene in a movie. But if it is my husband that is producing the film and acting in the film, then it is okay with me, like the case of Jeta Amata and his wife. I can play any role in a movie, that is what is called acting.

Has your heart ever been broken by a guy?

No, I won't even give them that opportunity. I have long made up my mind that no man would break my heart. I have male friends but not the sort you would refer to as boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. I don't have such because I don't believe there is true love in this country. I am only focused on my career for now.

What's this story about Tonto Dikeh being the person that inspired you into acting?

No, no, no, not true. I think someone posted the story online. Tonto never inspired me. I just love her movies like I love movies of other  big actresses like Omotola. I am myself.

I have seen some pictures about you and Benson Okonkwo. What's up with you and Benson?

Benson, I will say, is one of the few people in Nollywood that likes me for who I am. He's real and because he is a guy, it works for me. The girls, girls thing doesn't cut it with me. Most of the girls are fake. It is not like I have issues with anyone I just found out very few of them like me.

What's your idea about s*x?

Well, you see someone and you feel this guy will be good in bed, fine, go ahead and have it. S*x is something you can have if you feel good about it. I don't believe all those Bible stuffs about s*x.

There are so many revealing pictures of you on the internet.  Does it mean you can act n*de?

I can act nude under some certain conditions. If those conditions are met, why not?

Queeneth, you don't seem to like men very much. Why?

Well, maybe because when I was trying to establish myself as a model, every man I met wanted something from me. In this country, most men you meet don't want to do anything for you unless you are ready to offer s*x. Only very few men are nice. I don't know if it happens like that to other women but for me, it has and that doesn't mean I have anything against men. I don't.

"I Escaped Being Used For Money Ritual By My Husband" – Wife Speaks Out!

Posted: 24 Nov 2013 05:43 AM PST

A housewife, Caroline Omoseebi, testified before an  Alakuko Customary Court that her husband, Ayemisan, wanted to use her for money ritual. According to her, the husband took her pants to a herbalist in pursuit of the money ritual and also joined a secret cult. Caroline said they got married 44 years ago, and have seven grown up children. She said they lived in harmony until some years ago when their relationship went  sour.
"He said he wanted to be rich at all costs. That is the reason he joined a secret cult. He actually took my pants to a herbalist in his attempt to get rich quick", the petitioner told the court. In his defence, the husband said there was  no trouble between him and the wife until she joined a club of bad friends and became uncontrollable. The respondent said  he was not ready for divorce and pledged to change his character. The court president, Mr. Godwin Awosola, said the court could not force Ayemisan on the wife and, while adjourning the case, warned the couple to maintain peace.
