Meet Femi Otedola’s Only Son, Fewa (Photos)

Meet Femi Otedola’s Only Son, Fewa (Photos)

CEO of Forte Oil, Femi Otedola, is blessed with four children, three daughters and a son. While his second daughter, DJ Cuppy and third daughter, Temi Otedola who is a fashion blogger, are well known in the media, his first daughter, Olawumi, and his only son, and last child, Fewakeep things private.

Last year, during World Autism Day on the 2nd April, Temi Otedola shared a personal story on her JTO Fashion blog about living with autism with her younger brother, Fewa.

She started off by saying “Autism Awareness day was launched 9 years ago to raise awareness and conversation about the people living with autism around the globe. with this in mind, I have decided to share my own personal experience with autism.”

Talking about how her parents told them about her brother, she says:

In 2004, my mum called my sisters and me into her bedroom. With the composure only a mother can have, she told us that our baby brother, Fewa, had ‘special needs’. While my sisters asked questions, all I could do was think about what this would mean for me, the already overindulged, youngest of three girls. Thankfully, my selfishness quickly wore off and Fewa quickly became the centre of our family. The role of an older sister always entails some sort of responsibility. However, the role of an older sister to an autistic sibling is a great deal more work. At first, it seemed like every day with him was a challenge, especially for my mother. I remember seeing my mum helping Fewa with simple tasks like brushing his teeth, helping him to get dressed, or feeding him lunch, with each day ultimately ending in exhaustion. Our family has been so blessed to have help from carers, but no one can deny the resilience my mother has had raising Fewa. It is the thing I most respect about her.

On her brother, she says:

Every day, I see him becoming more independent. Our relationship is becoming less one-sided; I can truly say that we are friends. Fewa doesn’t need anyone’s sympathy. He is the most genuine and caring person I know. This is probably why I have never seen Fewa’s autism as necessarily and totally negative, it is a unique characteristic that adds to the complexity of the person that he is

I am not naïve or unrealistic. I certainly have some gnawing worries about the future. Fewa will always need support of some kind. At age sixteen he still requires 24 hour help. I would say that the biggest misconception about autism is that people who have it are socially inept geniuses – Rainman, anyone? Yes, that is true for some autistic people, but there is a reason the official term is “autism spectrum disorder”. It is a spectrum, and it can range from children who are not able to speak at all to children who can go to normal schools.

On coping with Fewa’s autism, she says:

No matter what I do, I need to build my life with Fewa in mind. My parents won’t be around forever, and his care and well-being will become the responsibility of me and my sisters. It is true that consideration for Fewa will always affect the decisions I make in my life. Despite this, Fewa is by no means a burden. These worries do not reduce the immense love I have for my brother who has brought so much joy and shown me the purest form of love. To quote The Bard, “Love sought is good, but given unsought is better.” It is Fewa’s unconditional love that has shaped me into the woman I am today – a sister, a teacher, a carer and a best friend.

Davido Becomes The Youngest Nigerian To Own A Private Jet

Davido Becomes The Youngest Nigerian To Own A Private Jet

Define Assurance and Davido comes to mind. 

The past few days has been the best yet for OBO Davido. Davido who had earlier said that he ‘peace of mind’ has bought himself a private jet making him the youngest Nigerianto own one.

This information is coming in hours after his personal assurance and girlfriend, Chioma Avril Rowland, landed a partnership deal for her cooking show and Davido became a brand ambassador of the Infinix telephone brand.

He tweeted:

It is not yet known how deep he dipped into his pocket to purchase one. Although jets come in different prices due to the aircraft models, its age and how long it has been used also influence its price.

If the age and usage are put into cognizance, a jet cost between 1 million (N3.6 Billion for over 30 years) to over $100 million (N36 billion) and requires maintenance of about $700,000 (N252,000,000) to $4 million (N1.44 billion) per year.

Five ways to know that your man has another woman

Five ways to know that your man has another woman

Night Reading

As much as we want to look the other side and avoid speaking about extra-marital affairs in our society, it is real. The bug has already caught up with us. A guy has a girlfriend or a wife but they just won’t zip-up so they have ‘side chicks’ all over.

And sad as it may sound, more women are accepting and embracing the fact that they are just that..,side chicks. But some women fail to read the pointers that show they are the side chicks probably because the guy has been lying that they aren’t married neither are they seeing anyone else.

Here are signs to look out for to know if you are the third wheeler:

Communication incoherence

This should be the number one pointer. If your man doesn’t pick up or respond to your texts in good time and always insist that you wait for them to contact you, be alert. If again, he can’t call you past a particular time, he is probably with the main. And if you call and he receives but he is somewhat incoherent and always in a hurry to hang up, look deeper.

Stays indoors when you are together

If he is a bit reluctant to walk around with you whenever you are together and insists that you just hang out in the house, he probably is hiding something. Otherwise, if you are the main and he is very proud of you, he wouldn’t mind showing you off to the world.

Late night dates-your place

When he is always ‘working until late’ and therefore prefers coming to your house late after work for dinner, there could be a problem. Find out why always your place and never his place.

No Public Display of Affection

PDA should never be an issue in a relationship. Many times, people in love can hardly keep their hands to themselves even in public. They always sneak touches here and there. If your man is extra cautious on even holding hands in public, it could a sign you are only a side chick. He avoids it because in case he is spotted, he can always convince the wife you are ‘just a friend/colleague’.

No emotional attachments

If every time you try to bring up a deep and emotional conversation, he dodges, find out why. He most certainly is avoiding to get an emotional connection with you since it would only complicate matters for him.

When these aren’t all the reasons to know if you are the third wheeler, it is a good place to start.

Evans Cries Out In Court, Says They Don’t Feed Him Well In Prison

Evans Cries Out In Court, Says They Don’t Feed Him Well In Prison

Suspected kidnap kingpin Evans (L) and other members of his gang during their arraignment (file photo credit: NAN)

Kidnap suspect Evans on Monday refused to come down from a Black Maria vehicle which conveyed him and other suspects to the Lagos State High Court for trial.

It was gathered that Evans was wearing a torn green Tee shirt.

His refusal to come down prompted the judge, Justice Adedayo Akintoye, to order the prison warders to bring him into the courtroom.

He was later forced to come down and handcuffed into the courtroom and led to the dock.

In the dock, Evans raised his hand and told the judge that he had something to say.

When he was allowed to speak, the suspected kidnapper said, ”I have an explanation to make. Since I have been in the maximum prison, they have been maltreating me; no visit, they don’t feed me well. I have an eye problem and I cannot see far.”

But his claims were denied by the warder from Kirikiri Maximum Prison.

“We have been treating him very well, he is well fed, and people have been visiting him. A doctor has been checking him. The doctor came to check him yesterday (Sunday) and even this morning before coming to court,” the warder said.

“He was saying he can’t be in court that he is not feeling fine, but when the doctor checked him yesterday and this morning, the doctor said he was healthy and that he sees no reason why he can’t be in court.”

Evans is facing trial alongside Joseph Emeka, Linus Okpara and Victor Aduba on two counts of conspiracy and unlawful capture.

PDP raises panel to discuss name, bring back Saraki, Tambuwal, Kwankwaso

PDP raises panel to discuss name, bring back Saraki, Tambuwal, Kwankwaso

The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has inaugurated a contact committee for the purpose of aligning with other political parties ahead of the 2019 general elections.

The committee, which is headed by a former governor of Cross River State, Mr. Liyel Imoke, will also explore the possibility of tinkering with the name and insignia of the PDP.

Some key stakeholders, particularly prominent chieftains of the PDP that defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2014, are said to have insisted on a change of name, as one of the conditions to rejoin the PDP.

Prominent among the APC chieftains being wooed by the leadership of PDP include the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki; former Kano State Governor, Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso; his Sokoto State counterpart, Aliyu Wamakko; and former Gombe State Governor, Danjuma Goje.

Overtures are also being made to woo the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Waziri Tambuwal. Tambuwal had defected from the PDP to the APC at the tail end of his tenure as Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Investigation further revealed that the high-profile politicians are being wooed with tickets for choice offices, including the presidential slot.

But the heavy baggage of corruption trailing the PDP has made it difficult for prospective defectors to cross over from the APC and other political parties.

A prominent chieftain of the PDP confided in our correspondent yesterday that the major task of the committee is to make wide consultations regarding the propriety or otherwise of name change.

The source, who did not want to be named said, “Yes, we are seriously concerned about the issue of name change, as being demanded by some of the intending returnees.

“But I must let you know that not all of them are assisting on name change because they can see through the veil of deception in the APC government’s anti-corruption campaign”.

Our correspondent further gathered that the leadership and key stakeholders in the PDP may have narrowed the search for the party’s presidential flag bearer to only two individuals -a serving governor and a serving senator from the same geopolitical zone.

The two politicians are believed to have enough political clout to challenge President Muhammadu Buhari’s pre-2015 cult-like followership, particularly among the masses in the Northwest geopolitical zone.

While inaugurating the committee yesterday, the National Chairman of the PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, said the party would do everything within the confines of the law to regain power in 2019.

Secondus said the past three years of President Buhari’s administration had convinced Nigerians of the need for a credible alternative in 2019.

The party chair tasked members of the committee to reach out to Nigerians and groups on the need to forge a common front for what he described as the “political salvation” of the country.

Secondus said: “Just as your name connotes, you are to deploy your well-versed network to help open the space and allow into our party, all those whose union with us can help in rescuing this country.

“Like we always say in this party, this umbrella is big enough to accommodate all people of patriotic ideals”.

Imoke promised to work tirelessly to deliver on the mandate, stating that the situation in the country had become too dangerous for well-meaning Nigerians to fold their hands in resignation.

Other members of the committee include former Jigawa State Governor, Sule Lamido; his Niger State counterpart, Babangida Aliyu; and former Benue State Governor, Gabriel Suswam.

Others a former Director-General of the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), Dr. Paul Orhii; former Aviation Minister, Kema Chikwe; and a former National Chairman of the PDP, Bello Haliru Mohammed, among others.

Davido, Simi and Wizkid emerge as biggest winners at Headies 2018

Davido, Simi and Wizkid emerge as biggest winners at Headies 2018

Headies 2018: Davido got the biggest awards on the night  (Pulse)

Headies 2018 was held on Saturday night, 5th May 2018 and hours after the awards have been concluded, the dust from the performances and announcement of winners is yet unsettled.

Despite the heavy downpour earlier in the day, the awards which is largely regarded as Nigeria's most prestigious music event witnessed a large turnout and constellation of stars.

The event which was held at the Convention centre, Eko Hotels and Suites, began with a red carpet which preceded the main awards.

Singer Praiz on the Headies red carpet  (Pulse)

Coming off the back of a period in review where Nigerian music broke the boundaries with artists like Wizkid and Davido, and the emergence of new sounds from the Pon Ponto the trending Shaku Shaku vibe. The task before the organizers of the awards was quite huge and they had to deliver.

For yet another year running, the organisers ran a live feed via its cable and online channels for viewers from home to be a part of the event.

Simi won big at the 12th edition of the Headies award  (Pulse)

After some delays, the award finally commenced with an opening performance from a dance troupe.

Cometh the hour, cometh the hosts, with comedian Bovi walked on stage in company of co-host Seyi Shay who was stunning in her gown, as they officially welcomed the guests and opened proceedings on the night.

Falz kicked off performances at the 12th edition of the Headies Music awards, coming on stage on a power bike and delivering an exhilarating act that got everyone in the audience cheering and anticipating an electric sequence of events.

Dr Sid graced the Headies 2018 red carpet  (Pulse)

Other performances on the night include Simi, Mr Real, who got everyone doing the Legbegbe, Niniola, Danfo Drivers andZulezoo brought nostalgic memories to the crowd, Mayorkun, Maleek Berry, Johnny Drille, Tiwa Savage and Davido giving this year's event the much needed thrilling jolts and compelling renditions at intervals that kept the over three-and-a-half-hour show from devolving into a slog.

Tiwa Savage arriving at the Headies 2018  (Pulse)

Going into the night, much was anticipated with the major categories and it didn't disappoint.

DMW boss, Davido swept the night's biggest categories for Song of the year, Artist of the year and Best Pop Single.

Simi won Best Album, Best Recording and Best RnB Single, while Wizkid was crowned with Best RnB/Pop album and Viewers' choice.

Other winners on the night were Mayorkunwinning the Next Rated category and going home with a car, M.I Abaga for Lyricist on the roll and Best rap song, Yemi Alade for Best Performer, Tiwa Savage for Best Collabo, Kiddominant for Best Producer, Daps won Best Video for Come Closer, Tenifor Rookie of the year and many others.

The night belonged to Davido as he was easily the apolitical choice, singles like 'If', 'Fall' and 'Fia' had sealed his legacy in 2017 and the plaques were the hypothetical triumph of his efforts.

Davido emerged as the biggest winner at the Headies 2018  (Pulse)

The Headies had its compelling moments, the production was top notch but it was not without it usual hiccups as most artists who won awards on the night were not on stage to receive their plaques.

At th end of the 12th edition, the Headies have done enough to justify its place as Nigeria's most prestigious awards yet again, everyone was heartily entertained, winners were largely deserving and it was another night of triumph for Nigerian music.

SIR Alex Ferguson is battling for life after being rushed to hospital.

According to The Sun, the legendary former Manchester United boss is set to have surgery after being whisked to Salford Royal Hospital with a police escort on Saturday morning.

A Manchester United spokesman said, “Sir Alex Ferguson has undergone emergency surgery for a brain haemorrhage.

“The procedure has gone very well but he needs a period of intensive care to optimise his recovery. His family request privacy in this matter.”

The Scot won a staggering 49 trophies in management, including 13 Premier League titles and two Champions Leagues.

An ambulance was reportedly called to his Cheshire mansion at 9am (on Saturday) before taking him to Macclesfield district hospital.

He was then reportedly transferred with a police escort to the Salford Royal.

It comes after son Darren Ferguson skipped his Doncaster side’s League One match against Wigan Athletic on Saturday.

A Doncaster club statement said that “Darren Ferguson will not be at Saturday’s game due to family reasons. Darren asks for privacy, and will provide an update through the club during the week.”

In 2003, Sir Alex was admitted to hospital for a heart irregularity and underwent cardioversion electric shock treatment at the Alexandra Hospital in Cheadle, near Manchester.

A club statement at the time said that he had “received treatment in hospital following a routine check-up several months ago which revealed a minor heart irregularity… The treatment revealed he has no underlying heart problem.”

I'm out! frustrated woman who helped former classmate away from drugs declares after he relapsed

- For all her noble acts, the lady now wants nothing to do with her former classmate

- This is after going out of her way to rehabilitate and get him off drugs

- She had recently revealed the former street urchin was slowly relapsing

- Online users were however pressuring her to stick around until Hinga had fully recovered

The bittersweet story of the street urchin who was rescued by a former classmate has taken yet another twist after the lady distanced herself from him.

In a post seen by TUKO.co.ke, an exasperated Wanja lamented on the immense pressure she was receiving after she revealed Tuesday that Hinga had been spotted at a mirra joint in Wangige.

She further expressed regret in ever helping her former colleague because of the publicity that came with her seemingly noble act.

“In conclusion of the matter, I regret helping Hinga. It had brought me more tears, unnecessary stress etc. If I knew, I should have looked the other way and walk away. For those who are trying to tarnish my name over it, go ahead and do so. Never again will I ever help a person even if I find them on their death bed. My conscience is clear,” her Facebook post read.

Online users have on numerous occasions been on her case, urging her to finish what she had started and ensure Hinga fully recovered before withdrawing her efforts.

Hinga underwent a tremendous transformation from the skinny street urchin who was picked up by Wanja, to a fairly stable character who was on the road to recovery.

His recovery was so exemplary at some point that rumors emerged that Wanja was ready to marry him after all the effort. She however rubbished the reports.

Wanja has since deleted the scathing post on giving up on Hinga for obvious reasons.

What Moreno Has Said About Ronaldo Is What Every Liverpool Fan Is Thinking

What Moreno Has Said About Ronaldo Is What Every Liverpool Fan Is Thinking

Alberto Moreno has brilliantly summed up what every Liverpool fan is thinking right now about Cristiano Ronaldo ahead of the Champions League final.

Liverpool are ONE game away from making it SIX European titles.

After beating AS Roma 7-6 on aggregate in a thrilling semi-final, Liverpool have booked a date against Real Madrid in Kiev, Ukraine.

Defending champions Real Madrid will be seeking for an unprecedented third consecutive Champions League triumph, under the famed tutelage of former 'Galactico' Zinedine Zidane.

And the Spanish outfit will be pinning their hopes on Ronaldo to continue his goal scoring heroics in Europe.

He's already chipped in with an impressive 15 goals in Europe's elite competition.

While Moreno will likely feature on the bench versus Real Madrid, he's summed up Liverpool fans thoughts about Ronaldo ahead of May 26th.

"Ahead of the final, if I could, I would erase Cristiano," Moreno jokingly told Cadena Cope via Football Espana.

The Spanish left-back has no words on Liverpool's achievements in the Champions League thus far, before calling the experience 'incredible' while lauding boss Jurgen Klopp.

"I have no words (for Liverpool reaching the final), it is an incredible achievement for us and now we have a trophy in our sights.

"(Liverpool manager Jurgen) Klopp is a very sentimental guy and he definitely has a special connection with this competition," he added.

Real Madrid will be wary of Liverpool's threat including Mohamed Salah, who has been heavily linked with a move to the iconic Santiago Bernabeu.

'The Egyptian King' has bagged 11 goals in Europe, and Moreno is hoping he can produce the goods in the final.

"Salah is an amazing player and has been so important for us this season, we hope he can produce one more special match."

Davido's Girlfriend, Chioma Replies Critics Attacking Her

Davido's Girlfriend, Chioma Replies Critics Attacking Her

Davido's girlfriend, Chioma has taken to her social media handle to reply critics attacking her after Davido showered love on her publicly.

Davido and Chioma

Chioma, after being flaunted by Nigerian musician, Davido has received many attacks from women who ridiculed her for dating a man who has two babymamas. 

The women argued that if Davido was a poor church rat who impregnated two women, Chioma wouldn't have the nerve to settle with him. But, because he has money, all his sins have now been forgotten.

Reacting to the attacks, Chioma took to her social media to reply.

@louisepoutha questioned Chioma and wrote: “Is funny how so many people including myself are happy for her, Chioma. This is nothing but the sad story of a little young woman that has no self-worth or respect. He sleeps around, had babies while dating her and she is still holding on. I am not sure if it is bravery or stupidity or vanity because Davido is rich and many others want him. She would have a very painful life; I don’t wish such life for nobody as it is a high price to pay for love.”

Replying to this, Chioma answered: “My God won’t let me have a painful marriage my dear! Have a wonderful life.”

Ray Hushpuppi Net Worth, Cars & Biography 2018

Ray Hushpuppi Net Worth, Cars & Biography 2018

Except you’ve been living in a hole for a very long time now, then we can understand if you say you haven’t heard of the name, Hushpuppi or in full, Ray Hushpuppi.

Hushpuppi – real name, Raymond Igbalodely – has become a household name in Nigerian social media and mere hearing the name alone, what comes to mind after is Luxury at its finest.

Ray Hushpuppi is one of the most talked about celebrities in the country and it’s quite funny that he’s attained this feat, not by singing or rapping, or acting, or being an on air personality, or a comedian, or a sportsman or whatever arena you know most celebs come from but by leading an expensive life and flaunting it off on social media.

Hushpuppi, born June 14. came into social media limelight when he and his then close associates, Mompha and Classicbaggie kept serving balling goals with their expensive lifestyle and leaving everyone mystifie about the source of their wealth.

They eventually had a fall out and we got to know a little about Mr. Ray after his friends aired his dirty linen online – in an attempt to debunk claims that he was hating on Hushpuppi, he revealed that he was actually his sponsor for a very long time because he was broke and all.

Mompha took the path of calling him out after he claimed that Hushpuppi tried to stab him in the back by using his personal account for fraudulent activities that almost sent him to jail – Mompha in course of this made us to know some details about Hushpuppi as he revealed that his father is a Taxi Driver and his mother, a bread seller.

We knew this little about Hushpuppi until he revealed that he used to be a heavy gambler and this has us wondering if maybe this could still be the source of his wealth or maybe he’s swerved to a different path that’s raking in more dough for him.

Ray Hushpuppi shone more light on his name when he began to indulge messy brawls with top Nigerian musicians a while back – the likes of Davido, Kcee and Ice Prince Zamani.

It wa apparent at this time that the big by was seeking media attention and there’s no denying the fact that he got it, he has since continue to water the mouths of his followers on social media with his lavish lifestyle.

Hushpuppi is well known to have a flair for luxury brand, Gucci, he can don Gucci from the strand of his beard to the tip of his toe without flinching.

Asides from Gucci, there’s the extravagant kinda life that follows – the cars, the hotels, the travels in style, the wads of cash he shows off, Hushpuppi defines luxury and there’s no doubt that he’d be listed amongst the country’s most luxurious persons, if there ever was the list.

But the great question on everyone’s lips concerning Hushpuppi is “What is the source of Hushpuppi’s wealth?” – as people continue to discover how extravagant he is, they begin to ponder how he became so rich and what his networth could possibly be.

This has been the thought of many each time news about the big boy emerges. There’s no doubt that Hushpuppi, who’s also referred to as Aja 4 has outspaced a handful of Nigerian celebrities as his financial status is constantly compared with ones of other celebs like, Davido, Wizkid and the likes.

Rumours have it that the big boy owns a private jet, a Rolls Royce, the latest Range Rover, among other exotic possessions that fuels his comparison with super rich and influential celebrities in the country.

With all these, one can only but wonder what really his source of income is. It’s said though that the big boy has a net worth of 20 million US dollars – with his extravagancy, it’s hard not to believe that he’s actually worth that sum.

One thing we know for certain is that it’s either Hushpuppi is a very rich individual, or he possesses the dexterity of putting up the facade of being one.

Any which way, the precise amount of his net worth and more importantly, the source of his wealth just might continue to remain foggy for a long time.
