People do not take me seriously because of the kind of roles I play in movies- John Okafor (Mr IBU)

In his recent interview with Punch,

POPULAR actor, John Okafor has decried the absence of adequate structures in Nollywood.

Also he criticised the recent visit of the Actors’ Guild of Nigeria to President Goodluck Jonathan, which did not appear to go down well with some people who queried the motive in the first place.

For these critics, the actors only went to grab a ‘piece of the national cake.’ And though the actors concerned have since defended their decision to pay the President a courtesy visit, popular Nigerian comic actor, John Okafor, popularly known as Mr. Ibu, is still not pleased.

According to the actor who rose to prominence after his breakout role in the 1997 movie, Agony, where he portrayed an imbecile, the Federal Government has yet to set its priorities right with regard to Nollywood.

“Masturbation is as bad as fornicating”: T.B Joshua counters Chris Oyakhilome again

Media are reacting to Prophet T.B Joshua’s statement about abortion after rape, the popular cleric has also expressed his opinion on the topic of masturbation, an issue that courted serious controversy some years ago when Christ Embassy Pastor Chris Oyakhilome stated it was not a sin.

In an interactive question and answer session via his official Facebook Page, T.B Joshua bluntly said the following, “What is masturbation? Masturbation stems from a desire to have sex. Once that desire is nursed, it is as bad as fornicating. In other words, once that desire is nursed, one is in bondage to the spirit of immorality. There is no other name to call it than sin.”

Chris Brown says he's 'good at using guns and knives'; gets thrown in jail for a month

Chris Brown will be enjoying a lovely
month-long stay at a beautifully appointed residential abode otherwise known as Jaily McPrison-Town after making comments about his abilities to use guns and knives well. Which, on reflection, wasn't the best thing to tell his rehab group session.

The rapper was removed from his drying-
out clinic last Friday after breaching four
of the in-house rules, including "inappropriately touching" a woman's
elbow, refusing to give a drug test and
telling one of his group counselling sessions: "I am good at using guns and
knives."

The singer, who let's not forget violently
assaulted ex-girlfriend Rihanna back in
2009, was then led out of court in a
fetching orange jumpsuit and handcuffs.

Vanguard also gathered that a soldier, Private Clement John is being interrogated by the police for disrupting the exercise in Emure Ekiti.

The soldier, who claimed to be serving in an Army unit in Borno State, was reportedly over powered by others at the registration unit and handed over to the police. John has equally been transferred to Ado Ekiti for further investigation.

Also one Paul Ezekiel was arrested in Ikere Ward 2 for allegedly threatening officials of Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, during the rush for registration.

Spokesman of the state police command, Mr. Victor Babayemi, who confirmed the two cases, said the soldier would be handed over to the Army formation in Ondo State to ascertain whether or not he is a soldier.

Meanwhile, the Director-General, Prince Adedayo Adeyeye Movement, PAAM, the political organisation of one of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, gubernatorial aspirants, Bisi Kolawole, has called on the relevant authorities to protect NYSC members.
