TITI ABUBAKAR RECEIVES INT’L AWARD ON WOTCLEF


If information reaching us is anything to go by, the wife of the former Vice President, Titi Abubakar is billed to pick up an international recognition award for the activities on her pet project, WOTCLEF.
Sources disclosed that the wife of Bishop of The Redeemed Evangelical Mission (TREM) will also receive recognition award. We gathered that the award is organized by Great Africa Network for Women in collaboration with Nigerians in Diaspora Organization, Germany (NIDO), and Nigeria Community, Berlin in partnership with Institute for Cultural Diplomacy, Berlin.
The event sources said will hold in Berlin, Republic of Germany on Saturday 4, 2010 at 6pm, Nigerian time. The organizers are also responsible for the Culture and Award ceremony to celebrate Nigeria’s 50th independence anniversary.
We can also tell you that the organizers are already in partnership with Institute for Cultural Diplomacy, Berlin where the event will hold. It was gathered that star actress, Shan George will entertain guests at the event.
According to Kate Imaseun, Executive Director and founder of Great Africa Network, the event is a conference designed to address the complex multi layered issues of human trafficking and forced labor/prostitution in women and children. Great Africa Network for women was established in 1999, to assist Nigerian women and children who were often trafficked to Europe under false promises of a better life and forced into prostitution and labor.

WHO IS AFTER DAKOVA


For the fashion enthusiasts in the late 80s, the name DAKOVA rings bell. David Kolawole Vaughan carved a niche for himself as one of the early starters of real fashion business in Nigeria and he had enjoyed the patronage of a good number of who-is-who in the social circle until the late 90s when he veered into politics apparently to attract more patrons.
Politics became one of his undoing factors as he was incarcerated on political related issues while his fast growing business crashed, hitting him so hard. Surviving from his several ordeals, he migrated to Abuja and started on a fresh note again. The celebrated fashion designer again veered into entertainment business. With his Aristotle Nite Club, fortunes again began to smile on him as society gals and politicians make his popular hangout located at Ceddis Plaza, Abuja, a place to visit. Little did he know that his detractors are at work again. Recently a dreaded team of National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) stormed his hangout in Abuja and whisked him away. Although he was said to have been released shortly after interrogation over what a source described as narcotic related issue. We gathered that he had earlier had a brawl with one of his customers who we gathered was a very influential young man over unpaid bills running close to a million naira. The young man we heard vowed to deal with him with all his might. Tale bearers are also pointing accusing business on some envious club owners in the city who feel the success of Aristotle Nite Club is detrimental to theirs.
We gathered that the club has not fully recovered from the incidence as full service are yet to begin, while patrons seem skeptical about their security at the fun centre. Whoever is behind this, sources yelped, the dimunitive designer will come out stronger, just a matter of time, he said.

HOW MIKE BAMILOYE AND WIFE RUN NIGERIA’S BIGGEST GOSPEL DRAMA GROUP


No doubt, Ibadan- based Mount Zion Faith Ministries is Nigeria’s foremost and biggest drama ministry. It was founded by Evangelist Mike Bamiloye. The drama ministry actually brought a revolution to the gospel movie sector in Nigeria . Evangelist Bamiloye’s talents and creativity are outstanding as he writes the scripts of all his movies and drama series, which has earned him so much respect. The popular movie evangelist is however achieving this feat with the joint effort of his wife, Gloria, with whom he has been able to build a brand which has not only gained recognition in Nigeria but also on the global scene.
They have a very inspiring success story as they both grew the group from the scratch with barely little money to finance their project. Evangelist Mike Bamiloye actually started the ministry when he was 25 years old, and since them, he has not had any course to look back.
According to what was gathered, he received the calling to become a drama ministers at a very early stage of his life. But it wasn’t until when he was undergoing his tertiary training at the College of Education, Ile Ife, that the calling became very glaring. Then he was a scriptwriter for the Christian Fellowship Drama Group of his institution. At that time, they used to stage Christian plays in order to bring student closer to God. He was then supporting and coordinating drama group by going to churches and campuses doing evangelism through their drama ministrations. Little did he know then that his ministry was about to start. So eventually he started the Mount Zion Faith Ministries on August 5, 1985.
Interestingly his first attempt to make movies failed, but with hard work, perseverance and persistent, he was able to break- even. The failure of his first film led him into stage ministration through the leading of God, and that was how he started the drama ministration traveling from one church to the other and from one city to the other staging Christian plays.
In 1986, he staged their debut drama ministration at the National Christian Teachers Conference in Ilesa, Osun State, titled Hell in Conference, and that marked the beginning of a turn-around for the ministry. As the ministry was experiencing growth, Bamiloye finally went into film production in 1990, when he recorded and edited the “The Unprofitable Servant” which was aired on television in the Easter of 1990.
But the film that actually brought his ministry into limelight was Agbara Nla, which was actually his first TV serial. It was one series that was very popular in the 90s, and most people couldn’t do without watching it. It held most families in major parts of the country spell bound during the period. And since then, it has been one success story to another as all their movies have been block busters. They have even taking their film production to another as they now go to some nice places in Europe to shoot their movies.
And in 25 years, they have lost count on the number of movies they have produced. Notable among their drama series include; Agbara Nla, Apoti Eri, Back to Zero Point, Blood on the Altar, Busy but guilty, Captives of the Mighty, Covenant Child, Enemy of my Soul, Forgotten Ones, Foundation, Fruitless Tree, Gods are dead, Haunting Shadows, Just a little sin, One careless night, Storms of Life, The wounded heart, The Youthful lusts amongst others.
The small drama group that was formed then has now grown into a full fledge drama ministry with different department such as Drama, Drama Outreaches, Film Production, Marketing, Production Studios, Publication and Vision Carriers. A couple of years back, the ministry also started expanding to French speaking countries and it has also made its mark in those countries too.
The story of Mount Zion Faith Ministries will also not be complete without the mention of the role Mike Bamiloye’s wife, Gloria played in the building of the ministry. She can be describe as an epitome of support to the ministry. She also added glamour to the
Ministry coupled with her natural beauty, which a lot of people fell in love with. Even without make-up, she is a damsel. She also has good acting skills as she is very good in holding her viewers spell bound. She got married to her husband at a tender age of 20.
They are both alumni of the same institution, though he had graduated by the time she gained admission into the institution. It was when Mike came back to teach them Playlet that they met. He used to be like a senior and big brother. And over time, the bond between them became stronger, and it became obvious that Evangelist Mike wanted more, so when he proposed; it wasn’t an easy decision for her as she was considered too young by her parent to even think of settling down in marriage. But after stiff opposition from her families and friends, she followed her heart and the will of God for her life, and their marriage story has been a roller coaster one.
Mike Bamigboye does not joke with her as he loves and adores her. According to what we gathered, he always shows affection for her even openly. He always put her first in most of the things he does. This is because the wife is very significant of his life and ministry. To start with, he inaugurated the Ministry the same year he started courting his wife. So they actually started the ministry together before they latter got married. She on her own part is also a very loving and caring wife, and she is not even intimidated by the fact that her husband has to play some husband roles with other women in most of their movies. She rather looks at the bright side of things.
Above all, she had stood by him through thick and thin. When they got married, he was a full-time minister and it wasn’t as if the money had started rolling in. Things were very slow for them at the beginning of the ministry, but she kept supporting and encouraging him all the way. And now she is reaping the fruits of her unconditional love.
Their marriage which has existed for 22 years is blessed with 3 children who are all in the ministry. His first son is a script writer and his second son is behind all the musical effects in most of Mount Zion’s films.

PASTOR CHRIS SACKS PASTORS AND WORKERS OVER VARIOUS ALLEGATION


The General Overseer of Belivers Love World Church, a.k.a Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome recently sacked about 1000 employes of the church comprising of Pators and workers for offences a reliable source intended has to do with sexual immorality. Those affected had been warned of ‘lagging behind’ in their duties. Those affected by the sack action include workers in the Cyber Ministry, which is in charge of the information technology services, Inner City Ministry, in charge of orphanages, less privileged and other social services, and the publication unit also known as Rhapsody Ministry.
The sacked pastors and several workers were however adviced to reapply to the church, for future considerations. What informed their sack, we learnt was based on financial and sexual related issues. Before the axe fell on them, Pastor Chris has read the riot act against indescent dressing in the church. It was obvious that those sacked were those whose department and ministries had more reported cases of financial and sexual immorality cases.
The soft spoken man of God wielded the big axe, after his trip to South Africa, where he had gone on a trip before the commencement of the World cup.

WHAT’S UP WITH AMBO STARS, BHAIRA MCWIZU AND OC UKEJE ?



Ever since Bhaira Mcwizu emerged as the winner of AMBO 3, Amstel Malta Box Office Reality Show, she has not been romantically linked to any man. This is because in as much as she had always wanted to live a life in the spotlight, she has really handled her stardom well. This has to with her background and upbringing as she has her younger ones looking up to her. So she chooses the kind of events that she attends and she is not just spotted everywhere like many of her contemporaries who emerge winners of similar shows. And even when she steps out, it’s always in the company of her friends. She takes her life so seriously. In as much as she likes to have fun, party and hangout, she never really has time for frivolities.
It wasn’t until recent time when people started noticing the closeness between Bhaira and the AMBO 2 winner, OC Ukeje. Initially, when they were first sighted, a lot of people didn’t really attach so much meaning to their relationship. This is because when Bhaira won last year, she stated she was in a relationship with her steady boyfriend then, which she used to have before she entered for the competition. Even in some of the interviews she granted after she won the competition, she was always singing praises of how her boyfriend is not ruffled by her new status. And the fact that he is very glad and supportive of her and also have strong trust in her. She was so excited talking about him and considered herself lucky to have him. Though they have never really stepped out together as couple, most people always see her as a girl that has her relationship as well as her career going well for her. But it wasn’t long that people started noticing that there might be more to the relationship between her and OC Ukeje and which was obviously more than he being her predecessor in the competition. This is because; the two of them have been sighted together at some recent major events. And the fact that they don’t hide their feeling for each other made it even more glaring, and they hardly leave each other’s sight when they are together. For the duo, it’s not a secret affair, as they always storm events together and always take time to take pictures together on the red carpet. They were both at a function that held recently in Bayelsa together, and they were in the spotlight of the paparazzi from the print media to the electronic media, and they were not even bothered about that the closeness might actually mean they are neck-deep in a relationship.
According to what was gathered, the duos are actually taking the relationship serious. They both met in the course of their acting career as they obviously have a lot in common. Both of them had quickly fallen for each other and one thing led to another. The result is a romance that has become hotter with each passing day. And the interesting thing is that they are not discreet about their affair. Though when Bhaira was asked about her affair with OC Ukeje, she was said to have denied having anything with her. But there are those that believe that there is more to their relationship, and with the seriousness and commitment they have both infuse into it, it might even be altar bound.
Bhaira McWizu was actively participating in her family’s business by running a hotel for her mum. Her career path changed when she entered the AMBO House. Bhaira worked hard and proved herself to be a talented actress and her hard work paid off when she won. Bhaira played the lead role in the 3rd AMBO movie ‘Cindy’s Notes’ which was directed by Izu Ojukwo. Following in the remarkable footsteps of previous AMBO movies, Cindy’s Notes was nominated for several AMAA awards including one for Bhaira who received a nomination for Most Promising Actress at the 2009 edition of the award.
Season 2 of AMBO was clinched by OC Ukeje who beat off other housemates by consistently delivering strong performances during his stay in the AMBO House. OC’s flagship movie was White Waters produced by Izu Ojukwu. His performance in the movie was outstanding and he was rewarded with an award for Best Upcoming Actor at the 2008 AMAAs. Multi-talented OC is currently involved in a range of entertainment related activities including singing, acting and MCeeing. He recently featured in the stage play ‘The Tarzan Monologues.
