Darey tbt
Award-winning musician, Darey Art Alade in a post on Instagram revealed he failed to achieve his dream but is still happy with his life now.
He shared a throwback picture of himself above with the words;
A man once told me that we never truly change; we simply grow into the person we’ve always been. When I think it about it now, I see his point, though I’m tempted to disagree in part. This photo was taken when I was around 10. At a time I was more interested in airplanes than music. The music was always there but whenever I dared to stare at the future, the picture I saw was of me as an aviation expert.
Haha try picturing me at the local or international airport; hat in one hand, briefcase in the other, flanked on both sides by my female crew but it wasn’t just about the swag, the appeal for me was always the machine; that beautiful sleek arial beast made of steel and dreams! I dreamed of flying it, fixing it, building it… ah sweet memories . Do you have still have any photos of yourself from when you were about the same age? Please share and tag me. Tell me the person you wanted to be in that photo and if it’s the same person you are today. Do people change or do we simply grow into the person we’ve always been? What are your thoughts? #ChildhoodDreams #GrowingUpInNaija

Patience Main
Patience Ozokwor, aka Mama G, is a veteran Nigerian actress, who has been in over 200 movies till date.

Early Life

Born on the 25th of March, 1958, Patience comes from a humble family in Ngwo. She attended the Abimbola Gibson Memorial School, Lagos and during the heat of the political crisis that later culminated into the civil war, she had to relocate to Enugu.
She attended Teachers Training College in Afikpo from where she proceeded to IMT Enugu where she studied Fine and Applied Arts, specialising in Graphics but she never practiced for one day. Initially, she never had the intention of joining the film industry and was a teacher by training where she taught for about four years before venturing into broadcasting.

She was employed as an announcer with FRCN Enugu and was later retrenched when they closed down all the medium wave band stations.

Acting Career

Married at 19, Patience Ozokwor left teaching to go into broadcasting where she was a radio announcer and newscaster. She worked at the station until it closed down. Undeterred, she went on to another broadcasting facility where she began to do radio dramas.

Her first sojourn into acting began during her teacher training days in Afikpo, where she was given the role of Hamlet in William Shakespeare’s play of the same title. The play was so good that they were invited to stage the play in so many other places in Southeastern Nigeria. She was very popular then and everywhere she went people were calling her Hamlet. But after the teachers’ training, she forgot everything about drama until she went into Radio Nigeria.
Chika Okpala (Chief Zebrudaya of New Masquerades) invited her to take part in a commercial in which she played the wife of Pete Eneh. The commercial was a mass orientation promo by the Anambra State Government to encourage her citizens to acquire education before venturing into trading.

After the promo was shot, there was positive reaction from the people, and Chief Zebrudaya himself was so impressed. Later, when Pete Eneh had the opportunity of shooting a serial (Someone Cares) for a television station, he gave her the lead role. During the shooting of the serial, many of the established faces that saw her commended her.
She shot into limelight with the movie Authority in 1999 and has since featured in over 200 movies with leading Nollywood stars.

The Mother Of Nollywood

For a long time now, people have started calling her Mother Africa as she has played the role of a mother to almost every prominent actor in Nollywood and has nurtured many upocoming acts.

The Loss of Her Husband

Patience lost her husband a few years ago to a terminal disease and adopted a child in addition to her three to help her get through it.

yinke-ayefele stargist
Popular musician, Yinka Ayefele, is reported to have narrowly escaped death over the weekend at Ijare area of Ondo State as some hoodlums vandalized his vehicles and musical instruments.
Some of his band boys, were not as lucky as they were beaten silly when the hoodlums discovered Yinka had escaped from the scene of a party in the town.
The genesis of the fight stemmed from the fact that Ayefele got N3 million for the performance and could not drop  anything for the local boys in the town.
Reports had it that about 15 persons were wounded as the hoodlums vent their anger on those invited to a burial ceremony held at Odo Oja street in the town.
Ayefele who was in the town to perform at the burial of  85-year-old Madam Ebunoluwa, was reportedly smuggled out as the hoodlums went wild due to his refusal to settle them for performing in the town.
Eyewitness account said the hoodlums reportedly sent  their leader to Ayefele band leader to ask for the “ boys settlement” but was turned down.
Sensing that the hoodlums were poised for a showdown, the band leader pleaded with them to exercise patience till the end of the party when their boss would be informed.
Vanguard reported that the hoodlums placed themselves in strategic positions to be able to monitor the movement of the musician and became unruly when they were later told that their boss turned down their request.
Tables and chairs were reportedly damaged, while bottles were recklessly broken by the rampaging hoodlums. Ayefele was, thereafter, smuggled out of the venue of the party as the hoodlums surged towards where he was staying ( back stage).

A spokesman of the state police command, Femi Joseph, said there was no official report of the incident.
But a police officer at  Ijare, told Vanguard that the timely intervention of policemen in the town saved the situation from degenerating  into a full blown crisis.

Liz Anjorin
Popular Yoruba actress, Liz Anjorin has not only fired back at reports she is now broke but in an interview with Punch, revealed she is the first Yoruba actress to have moved to Lekki.

Hear her,
“I have three solid cars. I drive an Envogue, a Chrysler and an Xterra. I am even about buying the fourth car. How would anybody think I am broke? I am almost tempted to curse all those peddling this rumour about me. They are just crazy people.
“I don’t have a paraga shop. I don’t know where they got the story from. Of all the actresses that have clothing business, just three dresses from my shop would just be equal to the amount they spent on their shops. My shop is worth well over N80m. Can any paraga seller afford the things I wear? I don’t want to brag but people should respect themselves.
“I think an enemy of progress is spreading this news. Anybody who doesn’t like me should go and hug a transformer. I just shot a soap recently; I also released a video. If I am broke, would I be spending millions on these projects?
“I have never borrowed money from anybody. I am living large, I live at Ikoyi. I was the first Yoruba actress to have lived at Lekki Phase One (Lagos). I am the first to have a shop. On top of it all, I am a very pretty girl, I can never be poor. Even without me working, I can never be poor. I can only be broke if there is no God,” she said.
