What don’t people know about you? I may have to do a research on this. Not many people know I like God a lot and that  I go to church at least twice weekly. My church is a place where God works a lot of miracles. Due to my  upbringing, before I do anything at all, I go before God in prayer. I’ve taught my children  to do this as well. Not many firms experiencing  the kind of problems  I have had in the past survives them like I have. Having bee

Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Egbin Power Plc, Mr. Dallas Peavey The Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Egbin Power Plc, Mr. Dallas Peavey, Jr., in this interview with  ‘FEMI ASU , says the nation may be enveloped in darkness in the coming weeks due to a myriad of challenges in the power sector What do you think about the Nigerian power sector almost three years after it was privatised? I think at this point, we have gone through so many stages. I think the issue here is liquidity. So many of the owners came and they were thinking that they were going to be reaping some sort of returns after the first three years. In reality, nobody realised that they would go through three years and lose money. Our parent company owns Egbin as well as Ikeja Electric. Having said that, we cover a lot of the areas in Nigeria out of our own pocket. We, as a private company, don’t expect to do that. I think the government is coming up with a plan and working with

                                 In getting set for their final journey to Brazil, Team USA got cracking with undercover agents from the CIA, FBI and more or less prepared for war in Rio. They were more than determined to conquer the enemy and deployed all their manpower and technology to it or how else would one have described their decision to take cover inside a cruise liner during the Rio 2016 Olympic Games. The decision was solely intended to defeat the dreaded Zika virus, a disease that had seen some of her key athletes withdrawing from the Games. Indeed, the Zika virus had struck fear in millions of people the world over, who were heading for the Olympic Games. The fear factor was heightened by several calls for the Rio Games to be postponed. In fact, by January 2016, the Olympics was said to be on the verge of disaster as fear grew over the Zika virus, which had left more than 4,000 newborns with shrunken heads. It was no wonder then that the Team USA took the initiative by

                                     Super Eagles teenage forward, Kelechi Iheanacho was again in superb form for his club, Manchester City yesterday as he helped the Pep Guardiola tutored side to a comprehensive 4-0 victory over Bournemouth in the English premiership. Iheanacho who mid week scored in the club’s UEFA Champions League win over German side Borrusia was again on target yesterday, scoring City’s second goal of the day. He initiated and finished up a superb move involving Nolito, De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling. The victory saw Manchester City continue their perfect start to the season. Kevin De Bruyne opened the scoring for City with a free kick after 15 minutes. The Belgium internation cheekily rolling the ball under the wall and in at the near post. Sterling then sealed the points with City’s third in fine style, the England international tapping into an empty net after great work from De Bruyne and Iheanacho before Ilkay Gundogan added a fourth. Arsenal on their pa

                                              A few years ago, veteran actress, Hilda Dokubo stepped aside from Nollywood. Her departure had created a vacuum, as many of her fans sorely missed her. Now, she is back fully in the industry with a cameo in the wave making movie, The CEO produced by Kunle Afolayan. In this exclusive chat with Entertainer, Dokubo reveals why she decided to take a break from acting. Enjoy it. What are you up to lately? I just finished The CEO, a film produced by Kunle Afolayan. Currently, I am working on a new movie. I am also running a training center, which has been on for some time now. I am doing it with women in the Niger Delta. And we are doing well. By the end of September, I will be starting small businesses for 35 women. What inspired such project? I just wanted to give back. I think that if we support a lot of people then we’ll have fewer people looking for jobs, fewer crimes, and fewer things to worry about. And together we can build a b

                                                                                       Things might not be so rosy between former band mates, Faze and Blackface but in a recent interview with  Saturday Beats , Faze disclosed that he would forever be grateful to Blackface for believing in him. “Blackface was the first person to believe in me and he was also the first person to believe in my talent. He gave me the required push to succeed as an artiste and made me realise that I had a talent which could be expanded. When I first started out, I used to go for talent hunt competitions and Blackface always urged me that I would win, surprisingly, I always won in those competitions. He is part of my success story because he made me believe that I could break through in the industry,” he said. The singer said Blackface did not only push him to be a great singer but was also the reason he joined the Plantashun Boys and later began living
