Adekunle gold surprise Simi

 

Nigerian Pop Star, Adekunle Gold, got his wife, Simi emotional when he surprisingly showed up on the stage of the ongoing Nigerian Idol reality show.

For those following the celebrity couple on social media, you would know Simi is a judge on the show and she just celebrated her 34th birthday.

The ‘High’ hitmaker wanted to make her birthday extra special as he teamed up with her colleagues on the show to surprise her.

In the video, He posed as a super fan and when it was time for his performance, he came out with a birthday cake.

The ‘Duduke’ Crooner was blown away and couldn’t utter a word for 10 seconds. When she recovered from the shock, she gave her husband a hug and a sweet kiss.

Twitter said to be close to a deal with Elon Musk

 

As unlikely as it may have once seemed, reports indicate Elon Musk may actually end up the owner of a newly-private Twitter after all. Both The Washington Post and The New York Times are reporting that Twitter’s board is seriously considering Musk’s offer to buy the company, with the corporate governing body’s attitude towards the offer changing following Musk’s outlining of his plan to source the funds to make real his $46.5 billion offer to buy the company.

Twitter’s board met on Sunday to discuss Musk’s offer, and the NYT reports that they then entered into negotiations with Musk early on Monday morning to hammer out additional details including the timeline for close and what, if any, financial protections Twitter would enjoy were any potential deal to go south post-announcement.

Both reports stress that the deal is not yet final and could still fall apart, but given where we started it’s kind of amazing that it’s even gotten this far. Musk’s bid was initially seen by critics as undervaluing the company significantly despite it representing a premium on the current, depressed Twitter stock price, and the board even instituted a ‘poison pill’ policy to try to block Musk from acquiring a much more significant ownership position in the company.

If you need to catch up on all the wild twists in this story so far, check out our recap. It sounds like either way, we’ll have another instalment to share at some point today.

If you steal from public purse you cant be the presidents friend

 

The Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, has said that President Buhari hates stealing with passion and that a confirmed thief can never be President Buhari's friend no matter who the person is.

 

Adesina said this in an article he posted on his Facebook page. In the piece, Adesina emphasized why the President demanded a forensic investigation into the financial activities at the Niger Delta Development Commission NDDC.

 

''There’s one thing President Muhammadu Buhari hates with a passion. Grand larceny. Expropriation and purloining. Once it’s confirmed that you are filching from the public purse, you can never be his friend, no matter who you are. So he had to bring to a halt the gravy train that the NDDC had become over the years. And no stampede, no rout or panic. The house cleaning must be done, and done well. Thorough.

In the Niger Delta, you see plenty signboards, but little or no projects. In other words, people collect contracts, erect signboards announcing the project, but the job never gets done. And the contractors get paid.

What to do? A forensic audit was necessary. Some powerful forces mounted robust resistance, but they didn’t reckon with the iron will of the President. The audit was done, and report submitted.''

 

Adesina said he hopes that in 2023, Nigerians will elect a Leader that will move the country forward.

 

''As 2023 approaches, I pray that Nigerians would consolidate on honest leadership by electing somebody who can move us forward in probity and accountability. Buhari has shown us the way, may we never veer off the path again. Amen.

There has been strident clamor for a composition of the Board of the NDDC. It is inexorable that it would come, but it should never be the business as usual we experienced in the past. Honest service to the people must be the watchword. That is what President Buhari has in mind, and that is what we should get. Order is better than speed, and we will get there.'' he said

General of Living faith stayed hours with snake no bite.

 

The General Overseer of the Living Faith Church International (Winners Chapel), Bishop David Oyedepo, has shared the story of how he spent seven hours in the same room with a cobra.

Oyedepo who was not hurt by the snake shared the story to prove how God manifests Himself in the life of someone who loves Him.

The clergymen, in a Youtube video, said when you become a lover of God, the enemy will leave you alone, because every attempt on your life will bounce back on him.

He said, “You may read all the books I have written but until you discover my heartbeat for God, you don’t know my secret. God knows I love him, all the devils know I love God and God proves perpetually and unending that I truly love him. So He manifests himself concerning me at His own time. He does it naturally in all the realms.

“I was in my office and a cobra was found in my wardrobe, the third floor of the building and I worked in that floor seven hours in the previous night and the morning when they were cleaning, there was a cobra and it stood up. It was there all night and I was there.

“Let me tell you this, when you become a lover of God, the enemy will leave you alone, because every attempt on your life will bounce back on him.

“Everybody desires supernatural intervention in their finances but there is nothing you earn as wages that will be equal to wealth, it is the blessing of God that makes you rich and he adds no sorrow to it. So, to bring the hand of God to bear on your finances, whatever God says to you to do regarding your finances, do it.”

Emefiele rules out interest rate cut this year over inflation

Monetary Policy Rate (MPR) at 13.5 per cent.Reason: The possibility of interest rate cut now hinges on the corresponding fall in inflation rate to nine per cent or below before considering cutting its key rate, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has hinted.
For Emefiele, the condition is not likely to happen this year, but can “only happen  next year.”“I’m not seeing that [interest rate cut] coming this year. During the course of 2020, we may be able to see that, but I can’t see that until we begin to see the numbers showing inflation is trending downward,” Emefiele said in an interview with Bloomberg TV, in London, yesterday.
The development is coming as a disappointing one for many in the real sector, who have long craved for easing regime, especially with a renewed hope for its realization given the 48-month low inflation rate at 11.02 per cent.The apex bank chief, while acknowledging the positive moderation in inflation, though slowly from 11.08 per cent in July to 11.02 per cent in August 2019, said it was still above the target range of 6-9 per cent.
