GRAMMY: KANYE'S RANTING....BEYONCE SHOULD HAVE WON NOT BECK !!!
After nearly interrupting Beck’s acceptance speech on
stage, West went off on a rant, declaring, “Beck needs to respect artistry and
he should have given his award to BeyoncĂ©.”
At the airport, a cameraman asked, “Kanye, when you said
Beck needs to respect artistry, are you implying he’s not an artist?” West then
clarified his comments.
“No, I wasn’t saying Beck, I was saying the Grammys!”
said West. “Beck knows that Beyonce should have won.” When another paparazzo
asked, “Had you ever heard of Beck before yesterday?” West replied, “Come on,
man, I love Beck. But he ain’t have Album of the Year.”
Beck, for his part, took a conciliatory and humble tone
when reporters asked him . “Absolutely I thought she was going to win. Come on,
she’s Beyonce!” said Beck. As for West’s apparent diss, he said, “You can’t
please everybody, man. I still love him and think he’s genius. I aspire to do
what he does.”

I'M NO LONGER AN ARMED ROBBER BUT POLITICAL THUG....SUSPECT
Ajibola Ibrahim, 32, aka Scorpion, has denied the
allegation of motorcycle stealing brought against him, saying that he turned a
new leaf after his last arrest and was working as a political thug when he was
arrested.
Ajibola, an indigene of Iseyin town, admitted that a
Ghana-made triple barrel gun that was found on him was meant for his current
job as a political thug, not robbery. He added that his accusers were only
trying to implicate him because of his criminal past.
In an interview, Ibrahim, said :
“It is true I was an armed robber but after I was
arrested and remanded in prison in 2011, I made up my mind to stop. It was my
friend who took me to Igbojaye village where we were suspected by the
villagers. I rode one of the two motorcycles we took there. We were arrested
with two motorcycles. I knew our gang leader then, Lanre Ekwueme, in Iseyin,
though he was from Akure, Ondo State. We also had two guns.
“SARS operatives stormed our hideout in the night and
arrested two of us while our leader, Lanre, was gunned down when he tried to
escape. I was remanded in prison custody and only came out about six months
ago. The case was struck out.
“Since I came out of prison, I have been following a
politician as a thug. I have been working for one of the gubernatorial
candidates (names withheld) in Oyo State. One of his boys, popularly called
Alubarika Risler, is the one in change of coordination of the activities of the
thugs working for the candidate. Anytime there was going to be campaign in any
part of the state, Alubarika would call us and we would come to Ibadan to join
the campaign train.
“On the recent case, I did not steal any motorcycles. I
was only roped in because the Iseyin people knew my history and believed that I
was still a dangerous person.
“On Saturday, January 10, 2015, I travelled from Lagos to
Iseyin to attend a carnival taking place in our town. The gubernatorial
candidate I was working for had a campaign rally in Ibadan on Monday, January
12, so my intention was to go to Ibadan on Sunday after the Iseyin rally, to
prepare for the rally.
“Before I came to Ibadan, Alubarika came to me in Lagos.
He had five guns with him, out of which he gave me one with three live
cartridges. They were all new and he told me he just bought them. He said I
should always have the gun with me anytime we would be going for campaign.
“After disembarking from the vehicle that brought me from
Lagos, I mounted a bike to get to the centre of Iseyin town, only to be stopped
at a point by some people who said they suspected me. They searched me and
found the gun I had on me. They said robbers came to the town to take their
bikes and they were waiting to see if they would try to take the bikes out of
the town through the route I came in. They even disclosed that one of them was
shot by the armed robbers in the early hours of same day.
“When I looked at the people around, I saw some of those
who knew I had a criminal case in the past and I believed that they were the
ones who pointed at me as a suspect. They started beating me and took the gun,
my phone, cash (about N74,000) and my gold chain. They took me to Iseyin police
station from where I was transferred to Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Dugbe,
Ibadan. I was not caught with any bike and I did not shoot anyone.”
Ibrahim said he was ignorant of the fact that it was
criminal to possess a gun unlawfully.
“My parents warned me against going contrary to the law
but I am a stubborn person. This is the result of stubbornness. My past deeds
are still haunting me.”
He revealed that he was called Scorpion “because of my
prowess in subduing stubborn cows. I also trained in boxing, so I have always
been known as a tough guy.”

IN MEMORY: BOB MARLEY- HIS 10 GREATEST SONGS
February 6, 2015 marks what would been the 70th birthday of legendary Reggae sensation Bob Marley. However, nearly 34 years after his cancer-related death in 1981, the reggae pioneer's songs of love, dissatisfaction, peace, and protest are still as powerful and timely as they were then. In honor of Marley's memory, here are his 10 greatest songs of protest, social justice, and fighting the power.
"Simmer Down," 1962,"Concrete Jungle," 1973,"Get Up, Stand Up," 1973,"I Shot the Sheriff," 1973,"Burnin' and Lootin'," 1973
"Them Belly Full (But We Hungry)," 1974
"Revolution," 1974: Marley is only getting started with the line "It takes a revolution to make a solution." His call to arms invokes fire, blood, lightning, thunder, and brimstone, predicting that the Rastas will end up "'pon top." It makes the Beatles' song of the same name seem almost apologetic in comparison.
"War," 1976, "Crazy Baldhead," 1976 and "Redemption Song," 1980: Written after his cancer diagnosis, Marley reflects upon his impending death, spirituality, and slavery, borrowing the lines "Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery/None but ourselves can free our minds" from activist Marcus Garvey. With his still-powerful voice and a gently strummed acoustic guitar, Marley put his legacy as an artist and message as an activist into just 108 words, telling all the believers to learn from their pasts, know their presents, and fight for their futures.

PHOTOS: GOVERNOR FASHOLA'S UNCLE ALMOST BEAT HIS WIFE TO DEATH IN LAGOS !!!
Alhaji Kayode Fashola, purported to be Lagos governor’s
uncle has been accused of beating up his wife beyond recognition.
Rachel Adenuga,
who claims to be a close friend of Alhaji Fashola’s second wife, posted the
message below on Facebook thus:
“The man in this
picture is Alhaji Kayode B Fashola popularly known as Uncle K. He is an Uncle
to the present Governor of Lagos State Tunde Fashola.
His number is 0803328XXXX and he lives in Surulere.
I have decided to post this on Facebook so that people
know the kind of person he is and for the public to be careful.
The woman in picture is his legally married second wife.
Her offence is that he found a complimentary card on her table. And without
asking questions, he locked the door and almost beat her to death.
Again I must warn the public that this man is not only a
wife beater, he is a smoker, a drunk, extremely jealous and a chronic
womanizer.
He boasted that he is above the law in Lagos by virtue of
his position but we all know that no one is above God’’
