Seems like the drama between Oritsefemi and his ex-manager Yusuf Adebola Adepitan a.k.a Danku is not ending anytime soon.
Two weeks ago, it was reported that 8 months after parting ways, Danku returned to claim ownership of MSG gang, a label allegedly owned by Oritsefemi.
Then last week, Oritsefemiin an interview with Punch said, ‘I will arrest Danku and his mum’. He also claimed to have given Danku’s mum N1m for her business as well as support the family for the burial of Danku’s grand mum.

And now, Danku’s mum, Mrs Funmilayo Adepitan in an interview with NET is furious with Oritsefemi saying Oritse ‘‘is a big liar’.
She said:
I want to appeal to all Nigerians to save us from Oritsefemi because he wants to kill us.
I remember when my son brought him to me and told me about him, the first day I saw him, my mind told me to tell my son to be careful. Oritsefemi is ungrateful, because my son was the one that helped him get the Avatar deal’.
I remember clearly back then, Danku wanted to take my last son, Oluwaseun to meet the Avatar man in Abuja but I kicked against it because he was in final year in school, I didn’t want him to be distracted so I told him to take Oritsefemi and I was the one that gave them N10,000 to buy the clothes Oritsefemi wore to meet the man in Abuja, I never knew I shouldn’t have helped him’.
Reacting to Oritsefemi’s claims that he gave her N1m for her business,
‘I have been doing my sand business since 2008, I only met Oritsefemi in 2014 so how can he say that. When they showed me his interview on paper last week, I was almost crying because this Oritsefemi boy is ungrateful when he wanted to rent a house for his mother around Magbon in Badagry he came to meet me to help him saying it was packaging, that her current residence in Kiri-kiri is not befitting, I gave them over #300,000 cash’.
‘There was another time Danku brought him to me when they wanted to shoot the video for ‘Sexy Ladies’ with Davido, I gave him N1.2m cash till date he’s not returned the money. I am a landlady with two houses in Lagos so he can’t even compare me with his mum’.
She also spoke on Oritsefemi’s allegations that he sponsored her mum’s burial last year,
‘All these things he’s saying is a lie, I can say it in front of him and he can’t deny it. My mother died on April 12 and we buried her on May 30, but I almost cancelled the burial because my son had just left Oritsefemi’s house on May 16 and he fell terribly ill. Thank God for his life today, since then Oritsefemi has been threatening us, that’s why am shouting out now so Nigerians will know the type of person he is’.
‘I even gave him a nickname ‘Oritsefemi Mr Packaging’ because anytime they come to meet me to collect money they’ll say it’s for packaging, I just want him to leave me and my son alone’.

tuface-blackface
Following Black face’s allegations of intellectual property theft against Innocent ‘2Baba’ Idbia, Efe Omorogbe manager of the Hypertek boss has come out to clarify the issue.
In a newly released press statement Efe reveals although Black Face and 2Baba did write some songs in the past together, Black Face was given full credits and payed his royalties.
Read his press release below:
”When my attention was drawn to Blackface’s twitter rant about the ‘theft’ of his songs by his ex-band mate 2Baba, my initial reaction was to ignore what I perceived as an obvious marketing gimmick for his new single.
The reaction from a vast majority of people on social media who read about the allegations was evidence that the ploy had backfired.
Blackface’s press interviews since the twitter rant has made it necessary for me to present the flip side and set the records straight.
1. 2Baba and Blackface do have a bunch of songs they co-wrote in their days as Plantashun Boiz.
2. Both artistes have collectively and individually recorded and commercially released materials from this collection.
3. 2Baba has always given Blackface (Austin Ahmedu) co-writing credit every time he recorded any song that has Blackface’s input – No matter how minimal.
4. Blackface has neither given 2Baba (Innocent Idibia) co-writing credit nor sought ‘permission’ to record any of the materials they jointly authored.
5. Blackface has earned royalties off his shared publishing rights for about a decade.
6. A huge chunk of income he has made derives from royalties earned by the commercial exploitation of the successesful materials performed/recorded by 2Baba.
7. 2Baba did not and couldn’t have stolen ‘Let Somebody Love You’ from Blackface. The song was released about 2 years ago. Blackface complained about his name being misspelt on the CD sleeve and we personally apologised to him.
8. Yes. Blackface contributed to the writing of the first verse of the song. The second verse was entirely 2Baba. Bridget Kelly wrote her verse and Efe Omorogbe wrote the outro verse.
9. Efe Omorogbe is not 2Baba’s manager on ‘Let Somebody Love You’ but a co-writer.
10. The outro verse was lifted from the song ‘How?’ written in 1997 and recorded in 1999 at Dolphin studios, Surulere. Blackface didn’t write that bit. Couldn’t have written that bit. Blackface cannot in 2016, touch Efe Omorogbe’s writing from 1997.
11. Blackface should be honoured to have shared co-writing credit with 2Baba. I am. For each and every song we have collaborated on.
12. Blackface should be grateful 2Baba recorded their co-authored materials to ensure a lifetime of royalty income for him.
12. Blackface should record and release his own version of ‘Let Somebody Love You’ and keep 100% publishing on that version. Oops! 2Baba will still be entitled to a share.
13. Blackface is not in 2Baba’s league as a songwriter. Their post-Plantashun Boiz’ catalogs speak for themselves.
14. Blackface should go to court to seek redress if he indeed believes he has a case.
15. Blackface should know that nobody ever secured a court judgement via a twitter rant or media tour.
17. Blackface must have realised by now that the unfortunate tirade has not made “Killa” a hit. At least, not at the moment.”

nike ogunlesi
With a business which employs no less than 60 people in a country where it can be very tough and challenging for businesses to survive, Adenike Ogunlesi  CEO of Ruff n Tumble proves hardwork, determination and an unrepentant zeal for business ideas is everything you need.
Once featured in the ground breaking documentary, Africa Open for Business about innovative businesses in Africa. Her business, Ruff n Tumble was heralded  as a domestic business model, the type necessary to help turn Africa’s economic situation around.
Nike has also been featured on the CNBC program Dangers and Dollars: Africa the final investing frontier anchored by Erin Burnett.
But, for Nike it wasn’t always rosy as it all started as an embarrassment in the guise of blessings.

How it all began

With a lawyer as a father figure, it was no doubt a moment of pride for her father who also being a lawyer wanted his daughter to follow in his footsteps. But it was a short lived dream for him. After just a short while at the Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria Nike dropped out of school.

According to her, the legal profession wasn’t for her and at the time she really was not sure what she wanted to do with her life. Nike’s mum who owned an Afrocentric clothing business called Betty O invited her to come work for her and that was when Nike realized she enjoyed dressmaking.

The Birth Of Ruff n Tumble

With Ruff n Tumble now described as one of the most successful and innovative children apparel companies in the country, it wasn’t always like this.
It first started with Nike making dresses for her children which got people really interested and with the help of her mum and advice from her husband production started and services were later expanded to other Nigerian families with kids.

The clothing production for children from the ages of 0 to 16 gradually progressed from her house then selling from the boot of her car and finally moving to a location in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Ruff ‘n’ Tumble now operates a ware house, factory, distribution and has more than 60 employees across West Africa. The Company has about 15 branch locations across the country and also owns the brands “Trendsetters” and “NaijaBoysz, a clothing range for young boys aged 8–16.
Ruff ‘n’ Tumble has partnered with Nigerian Employers Consultative Association (NECA) and Industrial Training Fund (ITF) to help reduce unemployment in the country.

wale ola
Beat FM OAP, Mrs. Toolz Oniru Demuren in an interview with Olisa and Osi at the start of her programme The Midday Show said that US rapper Wale did not crash her wedding which was held on January 30, 2016.
Toolz revealed that she actually invited Wale to her wedding.
Toolz said Wale called her when he was on his way to Nigeria and she informed him that she was getting married on January 30, and invited him.
Wale was skeptical at first because he didn’t have anything to wear, but Toolz told him to come with whatever he was wearing which was why he stepped out in his casual ensemble.
Recall, Nigerians came for Wale over his choice of outfit to the big event and felt he was under-dressed for a typical “Nigerian Traditional Wedding”.
