GATEWAY MORTGAGE BANK DISBURSES N160M HOUSING LOAN TO WORKERS

Civil servants in the state, who bought into the Laderin Housing Estate, can now jump up for joy as the State-owned Gateway Mortgage Bank has finalized arrangements to start disbursing the N160 million facility recently secured from the National Housing Fund to them.

The bank’s Managing Director, Mr. OlawaleOsisanya, who disclosed this to Ogun Update during a chat in Abeokuta, pointed out that the feat was achieved following Governor IbikunleAmosun’s approval for the injection of the sum of N2.5 billion into the bank in December 2013, adding that some private individuals, who applied for the loan, would also benefit.

We  are proud to have the recognition and support of the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria at this point in time, as this will enable us to significantly expand our sales and marketing efforts on NHF loans as well as other mortgage products. We are indeed grateful to Governor Amosun, whose approval for the injection of N2.5 billion in 2013, made it possible for us to obtain our current status as a state mortgage bank, Osisanya stated.

He described the development as a phenomenon that has significantly expanded the bank’s sale s and marketing efforts as well as accelerate its product roadmap.

According to him, the bank is expanding its operations by opening additional branches in Mowe/Ibafo, Ijebu-Ode, Sagamu and Ago Iwoye as a short term plan, just as it intends to upgrade its status into a national mortgage bank and its long term plan.

On other activities of the bank, Osisanya disclosed that it is working in collaboration with the Ogun Sate Property and Investment Corporation (OPIC), to develop houses that would not cost more than N5 million to cater for low income earners, revealing that similar arrangement is on-going with the State Housing Corporation to provide houses for interested middle staff of corporate organizations.

I’m alive, says Taribo amidst death rumours

Taribo West

’Tana Aiyejina

Former Nigeria defender Taribo West has dispelled news on the social media and websites claiming he died in a South African hospital on Thursday.

Nigerian website gongnews.com had the headline ‘Another tragedy: Taribo West dies at 50’ while smithrise.com’s was ‘Former Nigerian Defender Taribo West Dies in South Africa.’

“The former defender of Nigeria Super Eagles who is now a pastor and founder of Shelter in The Storm Miracle Ministries of All Nations has died in South Africa early morning of Tuesday, South Africa Radio reports.

“He passed on at 42. According to the reports, West was flown into South Africa for medical treatment but did not state what he was diagnosed of. His body has since been sent for autopsy. He is best remembered for his various unusual and colourful hairstyles,” smithrise.com reported.

But in an interview with SATURDAY PUNCH, the ex-footballer who had stints at European giants AC Milan, Inter Milan and Kaiserslautern said he was alive and well, and never visited South Africa.

He said he first got wind of the news while at home meditating ahead of his church programme on Sunday.

 “I received calls telling me to check Facebook about news of my death. I saw reports of my death and people were commenting. I just laughed. I’ve never received such number of calls all my life. From US, UK, all over the world,” the Atlanta ’96 Olympics gold medallist said.

He added that he had a premonition that something ‘evil’ was going to happen, after a spiritual attack.

Taribo said, “It’s the handwork of the devil; they struck but they couldn’t get me. Last week, I had a revelation, in which I was heavily attacked but they couldn’t get me. They also tried it in the physical but they didn’t succeed. So, when they couldn’t kill me, they resorted to the rumour of my death. It wasn’t an ordinary thing. But when they can’t get you, they must join you in celebrating with you. That’s what’s happening now.”

Speaking further, Taribo said he is relieved and happy after God used the news to reunite him with old friends and acquaintances.

“All the people I had lost contact with were calling, thinking I had kicked the bucket. But it helped me in reuniting with these people. That’s God’s work, when the devil means evil for you, God turns it to good for His children. I didn’t travel. I only went to the American Embassy last Tuesday; I never travelled after that,” Taribo said.

Meanwhile ex-teammates of Taribo and journalists have urged the public to dispel rumours of the death of the ex-Enugu Rangers’ centre-back.

The Radio Catalyst slammed gongnews.com slammed for posting false news on twitter.  “Gongnews is fake brand giving out fake news to the world. Taribo West is not dead.”

Victor Ikpeba tweeted, “My brother Taribo West is alive. Please ignore rumours that he is dead.” Edema Fuludu wrote, “I just spoke to Taribo West and he is hale and hearty.”

Austin Okon-Akpan added, “It’s so disgusting when people put out silly talks on social media. PLEASE TARIBO WEST IS DOING JUST FINE. Just got off the phone with him.”

Journalist Colin Udoh also tweeted, “WARNING: Ignore rumors of the death of Taribo West. I have spoken to him. He is alive, hale and hearty.”

‘Thriller’ songwriter Rod Temperton dies aged 66

The British songwriter behind Michael Jackson’s icon hit “Thriller”, Rod Temperton, has died at the age of 66, his music publisher announced on Wednesday.
Jon Platt, chairman and chief executive of Warner/Chappell, said Temperton died last week following a “brief aggressive battle with cancer”.

“His family is devastated and request total privacy at this, the saddest of sad times,” Platt said in a statement. A private funeral has already been held.
Temperton is said to have come up with much of “Thriller” in the back of a taxi on the way to the studio.

The 1982 album of the same title smashed a new record in December, becoming the first album to sell more than 30 million copies in the United States. Jackson died aged 50 on June 25, 2009, from a lethal dose of sedatives.

The cast of the musical “Thriller Live” in London’s West End said the theatre lights would be dimmed for five minutes ahead of Wednesday’s performance, in memory of Temperton.
“Thank you for the music. The Thriller Live family salute you,” the cast said.
Musician Mark Ronson wrote a tribute to the songwriter on Twitter: “so devastated to hear that Rod Temperton has passed away. a wonderful man and one of my favourite songwriters ever. Thank you for the magic x”.

Temperton was described on social media as “a great British songwriter” by former Culture Club singer Boy George, while rapper LL Cool J said “we have lost a true genius”.
Born in Cleethorpes, northern England, Temperton also wrote Jackson’s “Rock With You” track. He collaborated with musicians including Aretha Franklin and Mariah Carey.
He launched his music career after working in a frozen fish factory, joining the disco band “Heatwave” and writing the group’s hit song “Boogie Nights”.

Nollywood has made the world respect Nigeria –Gov. Ikpeazu

’Nonye Ben-Nwankwo and Ademola Olonilua

Who would have known that the current governor of Abia State, Dr. Okezie Ikpeazu, is not only a lover of movies but a big Nollywood buff? Well, during the acceptance of hosting rights of Best of Nollywood Awards 2016, the governor made his love for the entertainment industry known during his speech. He acknowledged that the sector was contributing immensely to the GDP of the country and promised to continue supporting the sector the best way he could.

He said, “For us in Abia State, Nollywood has contributed immensely to the well-being of our people because one of the marketing and distribution pivots of the industry, Pound Road, is here in Aba, the SME capital of Africa. Just like Idumota in Lagos and Iweka Road, Onitsha, Pound Road contributes more than 50 per cent to Nollywood. So, prior to now, I always thought about how to further get involved with the industry which is why we are working on a film village and are glad to host the Best of Nollywood Awards 2016 in December.”

The governor said that unlike in the past when the country had a bad reputation, Nollywood has succeeded in making the world respect Nigerians as creative people.

“Unlike in the past when Nigeria used to receive a lot of flaks from the outside world, now, we receive considerable buffer from Nollywood. Nollywood has given us a new level of respect across the world,” he said.

In his words, the founder of BON, Seun Oloketuyi, thanked the governor for his support.

He said, “The Best of Nollywood Awards was created in 2009 as a veritable premium platform to honour the enterprise and ingenuity of stars and stakeholders of the Nigerian movie industry otherwise known as Nollywood. I am happy to say that we now have the longest running home grown movie awards ceremony. We designed BON as a travelling awards ceremony and in the intervening years, it has been hosted by Ogun State government under Otunba Gbenga Daniel, the Delta State government (Dr. Emmanuel Uduaghan), the Rivers State government (Hon. Rotimi Amaechi) and the Ondo State government (Dr. Olusegun Mimiko).”

I’m hale and hearty –Baba Suwe

Baba Suwe

’Nonye Ben-Nwankwo and Ademola Olonilua

Nollywood actor, Babatunde Omidina, popularly known as Baba Suwe, has denied the story making rounds in the entertainment sector that he is critically ill.

Earlier in the week, Nollywood actor and producer, Yomi Fabiyi, had cried out on social media that his colleagues should come to Baba Suwe’s aid, saying the veteran actor had developed health issues as a result of his ordeal in the hands of the agents of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency about five years ago.

Fabiyi’s post read, “I am calling on all seniors in the entertainment world especially those close to Baba Suwe because I don’t have everyone’s contact to please reach out to him as soon as possible. The torture done to him by the NDLEA is vastly damaging his health at an alarming rate. He told me he no longer feels comfortable since that episode. Baba Suwe is a widower, he can hardly walk properly as I speak, let alone film. How will he feed and take care of the children Aunty Moladun left behind?

“This is an A-list entertainer and this conspiracy of silence gives me mental agony on my part, I don’t want to speak when it may be too late, I won’t forgive myself. He told me when I visited him that he is innocent of the accusations and yet a long pipe was inserted through his anus. He was detained for too long amongst other things just because he was randomly suspected like every normal person. In my opinion, only lazy, ill-trained, unfit and uncivilised officers torture in the name of investigation. Torture is criminal and sinful. If this accusation is found to be true by independent investigators, it shouldn’t go unpunished. No malice is intended against NDLEA with this outcry, I just hope the leadership see this as a clarion call for getting it right and save the agency from sending an innocent person to an early grave whereby leaving his children to suffer unjustly. Thank you.”

Surprisingly, when Saturday Beats reached out to the veteran actor on the phone, he sounded hale and hearty.

“As you can hear from the sound of my voice, I am doing very well. I am hale and hearty. My health is perfectly fine, I don’t want anybody to worry about me, a lot of people have been calling me about the issue all day,” he said.

The comic actor further thanked Nigerians for their concern over him and promised to keep planting smiles on their faces through his works.

Piracy will soon come to an end –FG

’Nonye Ben-Nwankwo and Ademola Olonilua

The Federal Government of Nigeria has promised that the issue of piracy which has ravaged the creative industry in the country would soon come to an end.

According to the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the Federal Government has constituted a committee that would tackle this scourge and bring it to an end.

Mohammed said this during the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Federal Government and the Tony Elumelu Foundation to strengthen the creative industry.

However, Mohammed urged the members of the industry to be united in order to ensure that the efforts of the Federal Government to tackle piracy would yield fruits.

 “I have had private meetings with the members of the creative industry and I think what we need more is unity of purpose. You need to come together as one. There are so many chiefs in this industry. Everybody is a president and I do not see any subject. A group will come to my office for one courtesy visit and in less than one hour; another group will call and say that the first group was fake. This is a big issue that has to be resolved.

“However, I am of firm belief that the days of piracy are almost at the end. You don’t fight piracy with the old tools that you have. You must fight piracy with new technology. The moment we are able to migrate from analogue to digital broadcasting, it will become more difficult for anybody to pirate your work.  The president was so concerned about piracy and he said he would constitute a committee to fight piracy; so piracy is on its way out, we will control it to a level where those who invested their hard earned money would not end up as paupers,” he said.

Meanwhile, the MoU is basically a framework for bringing creative industry stakeholders together with investors, financiers and business leaders to transform the creativity of industry entrepreneurs into a profitable sector capable of attracting international collaboration and contributing consistently to the national economy.

 While speaking at the event, Chairman of Heirs Holdings and UBA Plc, Mr. Tony Elumelu said, “Without doubt, Nollywood is a global leader and our young musicians are emerging as international sensations with serious earning potential. This partnership will provide the framework for building business capacity and attracting sustainable investment.”

Buhari’s close friends won’t be spared in the fight against corruption -Osinbajo

Vice President Yemi Osinbajo has said that president Buhari’s friends and associates are not exempt from the anti-corruption war .
Speaking during a special interview session with journalists at the presidential villa on Tuesday,, the Vice President said:
“The major drain on the country’s resources. No one would be spared in the fight against corruption because, even the close friends of the President know that they will not be spared; he will not cover for them. Fighting corruption is a priority”.
Osinbajo also revealed that 200,000 unemployed graduates had been selected to be engaged by the federal government under the N-power jobs Programme.
“We expect that before the end of the month, we will engage 200, 000,” out of the 500,000 unemployed graduates the Buhari administration plans to hire in the N-Power jobs programme.”

“Many Nigerian ladies are fully engaged into prostitution”

Editor’s note: Since Nigeria slipped into the recession on the lips of many Nigerians across the country are lamentations as hardship occasioned by the recession bites harder.
Olayemi Paul, one of the NAIJ contributors, says that Nigerian leaders must be charged for conspiracy for duping Nigerians, their voting rights with fake campaign proposal. He reveals that the policies of President Muhammadu Buhari forced many Nigerian ladies to join prostitute business as a means of surviving.

I think as great Nigerians we have the right to query the authority of the leaders who duped us of our voting right with their false campaign manifestos. They are hungry for the presidential office without vision but with a mission to revenge their past offenders.
All their promises have failed and now they put us into a big problem because of their incompetence to back up their promises to the masses during the campaign, I called their forum OPBT (Obtain Power By Tricks) Mr President (Buhari) and his Vice with other political leaders involved in this OPBT (Obtain Power By Tricks) exercise should face serious charges for dumping Nigerians with their fake campaign proposal that later turns us to a falling nation from giant of Africa to where we are today.
Many of Nigerian ladies are fully engaged into prostitute business as a means of surviving and able men are turning into arm robbers due to the incompetent of our leaders that are good in designing a mansion with a mouth but when given them the drawing board and materials to work with then we all discovered they KNOW NOTHING.
Why is it that the present government treating us as if we are under military regime? Where is democracy dividends that we must enjoy as citizens of this great nation? No respect for rule of law in Nigeria anymore, no security for masses, we are all living under the fear of dictatorship. Judges are facing embarrassment and what about many that don’t even know anything about law, that means they will be facing hell in the hands of this present government. Enough is enough and this is the time we need to stand up both adults and youths, able and disable to protest against the hardship that the present government is causing masses. This is our time to speak out and protest to have our freedom from the hand of government without clear visions.

Nigeria is still JAGAJAGA! Eedris Abdulkareem criticises president Buhari

In 2004, controversial rapper, Eedris Abdulkareem released the popular song ‘Jaga Jaga’ which‎ immediately got the then president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo upset.
Back then, the president came on national TV to describe the song as thrash and unpatriotic in a televised address. A few years later, reports indicate they met and made up.
However, 13 years later in 2016 during the Nigerian Independence Day, Eedris feels there has been no change in the state of the country.
Speaking at the just concluded Mr & Miss Nigeria International pageant which held on October 2 at Ruby Gardens, Lekki, Lagos. Eedris Abdulkareem had this to say about the state of the country.
13 years later, what is still happening? I wish to use this platform which belongs to the elite to speak to the entrepreneurs, those who want to be superstars and make a name for themselves in the future and also to the press. I want to say that President Muhammadu Buhari has done a lot in the area of security, which we really appreciate. But security will not put food on the table of Nigerians, it will not change our economy. Therefore we pray that you will rule without bias, and you will take Nigeria to the next level.
Even as we celebrate Nigeria’s independence day, I want to say no one will close our mouth, we will speak the truth whether they like it or not. I am and will always be a proud Nigerian, yet I have to speak about the ills in our society. May Allah bless this country.
Although it seems Buhari’s government wants to ‘Jaga Jaga’, we pray that it does not ‘Jaga Jaga’. Many said I was done for in the music industry, but it is a lie, I am back again. Idris is back again.
‘Jaga jaga’ was released on Abdulkareem’s third solo album in 2004, and turned into a nationwide hit shortly after.
