Justin Bieber Sets To Quit Music

At the tender age of 19, Justin Bieber has apparently had his fill of the music business.
Bieber tweeted to his 48 million plus followers, "My beloved beliebers I'm officially retiring," on Christmas Eve. The announcement was retweeted well over 200,000 times while the youngster continued with more posts.
"The media talks a lot about me," he wrote. "They make up a lot of lies and want me to fail but I'm never leaving you, being a belieber is a lifestyle."
He ended the confession session with a promise to be "here forever."
Ironically, the Canadian teen's tweets came just in time to promote his new movie, Justin Bieber's Believe, released on Wednesday (Dec. 25), and he spent much of the holiday retweeeting comments and mini-reviews from fans and friends about the documentary, which faced stiff competition from the likes of Anchorman 2The Hobbit and the Martin Scorsese-directed flick The Wolf of Wall Street, which took first place with a $10 million Christmas Day gross.
Figures for Believe — his second documentary in two years — have yet to be released.
As far as retiring goes, the teen crooner may be too young to remember all of the recording artists who pulled the retirement card long before he snagged his first hit single. Among the list includes Jay Z, who famously proclaimed an end to his rap career a decade ago with The Black Album and accompanying documentary Fade to Black.
On the flip side, Bieber does seem adamant, saying during an interview last week with L.A.'s Power 106 that he was throwing in the towel.
Retirement may be the only way he can get some peace and quiet these days. The singer has had a tumultuous year, one that changed him from being revered to reviled, what with all the partying, fast driving, alleged weed smoking, urinating in a bucket and outbursts against the paparazzi.  
We'll just have to wait and see how long his retirement actually lasts.

INCREDIBLE! Christians At Aliko Dangote’s Office Cry Out Against Marginalisation

Africa’s richest man, Alhaji Aliko Dangote, is a well-known personality in Nigeria and even across the shores of Africa. The business mogul of repute has several thousand staff working under his conglomerate. The Christian work force within the richest man in Africa’s business empire, Dangote Groups Head office are said to be crying out against religious marginalization this much we gathered.
According to information at our disposal, Alhaji Dangote, has never withheld his support to the Muslim faithful in his company from the lower cadre to the senior level of the management, thus making it a norm.
“Every Ramadan season, Alhaji will give the junior staff even up to the cleaner Ramadan bonus. The senior management staff receives more financial support including gifts running into thousands of Naira to encourage them as they observe the religious tenets. Before now, he has been supporting the Christian faithful within the organisation with money during the Easter or Christmas period until recently when he stopped extending his hand of fellowship towards the Christians and solely focused on the Muslim staff alone,” a source whispered to us.
We also gathered from another staff that, there is high-level of ill-treatment meted on the staff as they are not really enjoying the best of time as perceived by people from the outside.
As you read this, the Christian faithful at the Falomo-Ikoyi, Lagos based head office of the business tycoon will protest upon their resumption from the Christmas break as we learnt that the last Ramadan favoured the Muslim brothers who allegedly said to have received enormously from the philanthropist business mogul only for them, Christians, to be sidelined this Christmas.
In an effort to get the truth, an SMS message was sent to Sunday Esan, the image launderer of Dangote Groups and he replied thus: “outright Balderdash!”. That was all he said before we published this story.
Meanwhile, Dangote Pasta based in Ikorodu was said to have laid off all the staff without pay, the reason is because the company has been sold to some foreign investors….We shall file in the full details shortly.

All The Glitz And Glamour At Tiwa Savage's Wedding

Love they say is a partnership of two unique people who bring out the very best in each other, and who know that even though they are wonderful as individuals, they are even better together. This belief is what best described what happened between popular singer, Tiwa Savage and her manager/hubby, Tunji ‘Tee-Billz’ Balogun when the couple finally tie the nuptial knot. The traditional wedding ceremony that took place at the Ark Vicinity, Lekki, Lagos was like a carnival of some sort as family, friends and colleagues of the couple showed up to celebrate their holy solemnization On Saturday, November 23, 2013. The wedding that could be tagged “All White Gig” was indeed a galaxy of star. The ceremony began with the traditional wedding rite as both families were ushered into the smaller hall of the venue at a few minutes past 11am. Both families sat opposite each other with that of the groom sitting to the left and the bride to the right.
After the introduction of both families by the wedding engager who is known as ‘Alaga’ in Yoruba, the groom’s family handed a letter to the bride’s family officially asking for their daughter’s hand in marriage which the bride’s family accepted. Soon after, the groom was ushered into the hall accompanied his friends, which included Don Jazzy, Banky W and Darey Art Alade. Tunji entered the hall dressed in a white traditional attire (‘agbada’ laced on buba and sokoto) with white cap to match. He and his group of friends prostrated before the bride’s family as a show of respect.
Finally the bride, dressed in silver coloured Aso-Oke with a headgear of same colour to match was ushered into the hall. She was accompanied by her friends, which included Karen Igho and singer Essence.
After a few more rites, the couple were joined together, prayed for and blessed by both families.
Wedding IV
The Fuchsia and gold coloured invitation card came with small access cards for entry into the venue, all packed in a beautifully designed paper bag.
The Wedding Company
No doubt, it was a well-organized wedding by the bespoke wedding design and planning outfit, The Wedding Company.  This was the same company that handled musician Darey Art Alade’s wedding to wife Deola as well as Basketmouth’s wedding to Elsie.
The Hall Was Decorated To The Fullest  
The official wedding colours were fuchsia and gold while the hall was beautifully lit with white and orange. Uche Majekodunmis Newton and David were hired to do the decorations of the hall.
The venue
The venue of the wedding, Ark Vicinity in Lekki, Lagos is fast becoming one of the most patronized event centres in Lagos. This was the same venue where Peter Okoye of Psquare wedded his wife Lola Omotayo just the previous week. With its proximity to a 5-Star hotel, Vantage Hotel and the exquisite Lekki Beach.
Choice Food And Drink were Served
There was more than enough to eat and drink. The main company responsible for providing the varieties of delicacies was Morenike Okupe’s Malas Foods Catering Services and then there were other small companies that provided the cannapes, ice creams and barbecues. All sorts of drinks were available, from soft drinks, to beer, spirits, wines and champagnes.
King Sunny Ade Add Colour To The Event
King Sunny Ade and his band were on the bandstand dishing out both the oldest and the new tunes. The was never a dull moment as guest, family and friends are just moving and dancing. As the main entertainer for the occasion, the Juju musician serenaded the guests as well as the couple.
Seyi Law Was At His Best
Comedian/MC who was able to held down the ceremony was no other person than Seyi Law.

Nelson Mandela, The Beautiful One Died At The Age Of 95

Nelson Mandela is not an ordinary man. He is a fighter and a survivor.. When South Africa's White minority imprisoned him for fighting for the injustices heaped upon himself and his Black people, he made a vow that they would not shut him down... they would not break his spirit...they would not kill him by working him to death.

Mandela and his fellow freedom fighters spent a total of (27) years of their lives in prison in South Africa, (17) of them at the notorious Robbens Island Penal Colony where they worked in the lime stone quarry. It was there at the quarry that he began his slow path to death as his lungs sustained irrepairable damage from an infection. Nelson Mandela survived his ordeal as a prisoner and was eventually released from prison and became South Africa's first Black President in multi-racial elections in 1994 that officially ended apartheid rule. He also went on to win the Nobel Peace Prize. Since June of 2013, Mandela has been hospitalized and battling that same lung infection that began at Robbens Island in that limestone quarry. 

On July 18,2013, Mandela's birthday, people all over the world paid homage to the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate. He was then and still is in critical condition, but holding on. Mandela does not know how to yield. He has been fighting for (95) years and for him struggle and fighting are normal.  Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela, the father of the nation died on December 5 2013 at the age of 95 by 8: 20 pm. RIP WORLD LEGEND!!!

I never converted to Islam -Liz Anjorin


Liz Anjorin is among the most popular female actors in the Yoruba genres of Nollywood. The Badagry born thespian stunned many people last month when she traveled to Saudi Arabia for the recently held Hajj. Her fans have accused her of dumping Christianity for Islam. In this Interview with Temidayo Badmus, she opens up on her Muslim background 


What was your mission in Hajj?
I travelled to Mecca for prayers. Mecca is a place that everybody needs to visit. It is a place where prayers are answered. I am a living testimony. I prayed for everybody around me that almighty Allah should continue to guide and protect them and answer their prayers.



Did you imagine your journey to the holy land would generate so much noise as it did? 
So far, I must commend the effort of the Nigerian media. I salute the professionalism of the Nigeria journalists. I appreciate all the TV presenters, Radio presenters, bloggers and print journalists. I don’t have any problem so far with what they wrote about my journey to the holy land. Their reports have been wonderful and I pray for Allah’s total protection over all my fans, my family and my well-wishers. 

A lot of people were shocked to hear about your trip to Mecca since many believed you were a Christian 
When I traveled, I actually I sneaked in to Mecca. I didn’t want anybody to know about it. This is because; I have been practicing this (Islam) for a very long time. I actually planned to sneak into Mecca to pray for myself as an orphan and sneak out but you know when you pray for something and at the end of the day, God answered beyond your expectation, it will no longer be a secret. That is exactly what happened to me. I have been a Muslim for a very long time.
