Posted: 14 Oct 2011 10:16 AM PDT


    Every 60 seconds somewhere in the world a woman dies of breast cancer, you can help stop the clock. Breast cancer is the most common female cancer in Nigeria and statistics suggest that 1 out of every 20-25 women would have breast cancer in a lifetime and 7-10,000 new breast cancer cases occur every year in a population of over 70 Million women.

Stand Up To Cancer Naija is a leading youth based cancer advocacy group.  It is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing essential medical information for people affected by or concerned about breast cancer.  Stand Up To Cancer Naija helps individuals and families understand, interpret and act upon the most reliable and recent breast cancer information – including all of the latest research-- so they can make the best decisions for their lives.

Excitement is in the air as Stand Up To Cancer Naija Partners with Silverbird Group to organize a FREE BREAST CANCER SCREENING at Silverbird Galleria Lagos, on the 29th of October 2011. This event will be a step in the right direction in the area of reducing the burden of breast cancer in Nigeria.  Unfortunately, we all have a family member or friend's family that has battled Breast Cancer so there is a continual need for sources like Stand Up To Cancer Naija. 

This Screening is absolutely free, you can also support the cause.

After Baba Suwe's Arrest,NDLEA Awaits him to pass out"Expensive shit"

Posted: 14 Oct 2011 07:26 AM PDT


   National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, waits for Nollywood comic Actor, Baba Suwe, to stool, 48 hours after he was arrested on suspicions that he concealed hard drugs in his stomach.
   The NDLEA Head of Public Affairs, Mr. Mitchell Ofoyeju, told P.M.NEWS this morning that the 53-year old popular comedian who is still in their custody was yet to defecate since he was arrested on Wednesday night at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport in Lagos, southwest Nigeria.

According to standard procedure, the Nollywood actor whose real name is Babatunde Ayinla Nurudeen Olasunkanmi Omidina must defecate and the waste analysed by the operatives. He will then be freed or charged to court for drug trafficking.
   The NDLEA airport commander, Hamza Umar said this morning that "there is reasonable ground for suspicion and the actor is currently under observation. He is fine and had been eating but has not excreted."
   He added that the suspect will remain under observation and the NDLEA doctor has been called upon to examine him. He said further update will be made as events unforld, Hamza said.
The suspect was detained by NDLEA officials after the United States-donated scanner at the Lagos airport detected substances suspected to be hard drugs in his stomach.
According to NDLEA sources, he was on his way to Paris, the French capital to act as a master of ceremony in a naming event of the child of an Air France staff scheduled for tomorrow.
    He was on his way to board an Air France flight when he was suspected by anti-narcotics agents, taken to the scanning room and detained.
    His passport was seized and the flight was allowed to go without him. The Air France staff (name withheld) was also arrested.
   At the time of writing this report, Baba Suwe was still under observation at the NDLEA airport office in Lagos.
  Sources said Baba Suwe has denied that he swallowed hard drugs and the truth will only be known after he defecates today or whenever.
Meanwhile, following the arrest of Baba Suwe by NDLEA, his colleagues have expressed shock over drug scandal.
They wondered why an actor of his stature could be involved in drug trafficking.
   Former President of Association of Nigerian Theatre Art Practitioners, Prince Jide Kosoko was full of anger.
He said: "Are you sure it is true? If it is, it is madness. It is madness I repeat. I can hardly believe the story. What else does he want in life? This is madness, complete madness I say."
Sunday Omobolanle aka Papy Luwe who called to confirm the report said he was shocked.
"But I can't believe that what I am hearing is true. A friend who is in London spoke with me on phone and said that he saw the story on-line. Sorry I will speak with you later."
  Barrister Tunji Bamishigbin, an actor and a Lawyer, said if it is true that Baba Suwe is involved in drug peddling, then he does not deserve the position and respect the Nigerian society has accorded him.
"It is also a big shame and it is very disappointing because the society sees us as the mirror through which they watch themselves and if we are found where we are not supposed to be, it is very shameful."
Star Actress, Remi Oshodi aka Surutu expressed disappointment with Omidina's shameful act.
"because whoever is not satisfied with whatever he or she has will end up where he is not supposed to be. We are the mirror through which the society mirrors itself and as parents we should live by example. It is a big disgrace to us all," she said.
   A young actor Femi Brainard also condemned the shameful act of the star actor, saying "this shameful act must be stopped because Wunmi was the first victim, and because she was pardoned does not mean that Baba Suwe will go scot free. What he has done is a slap on us and the entire movie industry. This time around he must be made to face the music."
   According to Hon Rotimi Makinde, a member of the House of Representatives, "it is a rude shock. "It's indeed a disgrace to many of us and the industry I so cherish. I reserve further comments for now until I get details." He spoke through his media aide, Sanya Ojo.
   The incident has generated a huge backlash against the comedian, with some saying it is a comedy of errors.

Lagbaja to sunday Are;You are a liar

Posted: 14 Oct 2011 04:18 AM PDT



    Entertainment practitioner and Manager of many top artistes ,Sunday Are granted an interview recently and claimed that he built  many artistes to reach the top.Part of the artistes he mentioned was Lagbaja,but he(lagbaja) has called all sunday are said in the interview lies. 


 Sunday Are 's interview,
    "Most people don't really know what I've achieved in my life. How would anyone know that I was the one that set up Tunde and Wunmi Obe's band? How many people know I set up D'Banj and the Mo'hits band? "Nobody remembers that I took Obesere to Sony Music and helped him record Asakasa, O.B.T.K, Mr. Teacher. Nobody knows I worked alongside Laolu Akins, Shina Peters, Wasiu Ayide Marshal and many others". On Lagbaja, he said, "We had a concept which was to have a faceless human being that can sing, play the instrument and dance. Initially, we were using one of our friends, Kunle Ojomo. And at a time, we used different persons to wear the mask. But one day, I told Lagbaja that he needed to start wearing the mask.
When I told him that he had to start wearing the mask, he was angry at the beginning. I told him the concept was most suitable for one who plays the instrument and who can also dance. He could sing, dance and play the instrument. But after three months of trying out the mask, he got used to it and now Lagbaja has come to stay. But it took my iron hand to achieve that and I thank God". 

Lagbaja's response according to National Mirror

I feel a little shame that I would sink as low as to respond to the megalomaniac rant of Sunday Are. I typically would never respond to such, for I live by a different code. Let me simply state unequivocally that every single claim that Sunday Are made in these articles about his role with Lagbaja, is an absolute lie. Every single one; never happened". 

   Yinka Oyedeji, Lagbaja's ex- manager, also refuted Sunday Are's claims, saying he worked with them only as a sound engineer.
"In fact, he was the sound engineer for the band, not at the studio during recordings. Sunday left the band because he could not handle the sophisticated equipment the band got for its performances later and we had to get another person"
