Should Tony Elumelu Be The Next CBN Governor?
A reader wants us to discuss this, guys.
As we all know, Nigeria’s Central Bank Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, will be forced to leave his post in March, 2014, two months before the formal expiration of his tenure. Two sources at the Presidency and a source at the Central Bank told SaharaReporters that Mr. Sanusi has been ordered to proceed on a post-retirement leave in March.
If Mr.President would make a replacement with someone credible and vibrant, do you think Tony Elumelu would be the right choice?
Some are of the opinion that, “The President needs an image maker, a redeemer' while others feel that “the post of CBN Governor would kind of belittle Elumelu. The guy is poised for much bigger things.

US President Barack Obama has just shared his deepest thoughts and memories of the Late Great Nelson ‘Madiba’ Mandela at the ongoing Mandela Memorial in Johannesburg South Africa. The second most powerful man in the world compared Madiba to legends like Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Ghandi all in one speech and he will like ‘to live and achieve’ like his hero Mandela.
President Obama made mention of so many things but was so keen on Mandela’s fight for justice, change, love and peace in the world and not just for the people of South Africa. “Mandela thought us all about the power of ideals, the importance of reasoning, the oneness of humanity and was a very practical human being.” He said in his speech.

Over Exposure Is Not Talent! Charles Novia Says As He Releases List Of 5 Best Actors Of 2013
You have seen his list of 5 best actresses of 2013. Now here is the list of the actors.
In my earlier assessment of the five best actresses of 2013, I used personal and universally accepted criteria to arrive at my conclusions. Obviously, a lot of actresses left out of the last list must have felt shortchanged but I still don’t have apologies for any omission therein. The same process goes with this list for the Best Five Actors in 2013 in Nollywood.
Once again, I state here that those actors and actresses who strut red carpets and push their publicity agenda through a dime-a-dozen instagram pictures should actually decide if they wish to be actors or socialites.
Enough of confusing the people with plastic smiles at almost every red carpet event. Let people judge you on the MERITS of your art than on your MEANDER on red carpets. Over exposure is not talent.

Lekki Wives Tells Tough Truths About Nigerian Wealth
With its tales of infidelity, backstabbing and money-grabbing, “Lekki Wives” has become one of the most talked-about television programmes in Nigeria.
But the edgy portrayal of life in one of Lagos’ newest suburbs is far from imagined — and a sharp turn for an entertainment industry long shaped by outlandish plots and, at times, supernatural storylines.
Instead, the series dives straight into key issues facing the country, notably “the ills of what people do for money”, said its creator Blessing Egbe.
She wanted to show how Nigeria’s so-called economic boom has brought untold riches to a lucky few but left life unchanged for most.
“We have pushed the envelope,” she told AFP. “We didn’t try to be nice about it.”
And the scripts push the limits in this largely conservative, God-fearing country, as one where a character seeks a partner to indulge his need for sado-masochistic sex.
With Africa’s biggest population and largest oil industry, Nigeria has averaged more than seven percent economic growth over the last decade, among the highest rates in the world.
But poverty has worsened since 2004, the government conceded last year. And while the middle class has expanded, a good part of the wealth is concentrated at the very top.

This life is really vanity..40 year old Fast and Furious star, Paul Walker died in a fatal car crash in a Porsche driven by longtime friend Roger Rhodas who also died on Saturday afternoon .He was attending an event in Los Angeles for the benefit of his Charity Organization Reach Out Worldwide which sends first responders to scenes of Natural disasters . He and a friend decided to go for a spin in the red porsche when the car lost control, skidded off the road, crashed into a tree and burst into flames immediately.They were trapped and burnt badly beyond recognition..
It's so ironical that he died in a fast car considering his Fast and Furious role was all about fast cars and speed..talk about life imitating art...
May he RIP...
