'I’m no longer interested in N25m compensation' - Baba Suwe

Comic actor Baba Suwe says he's no longer interested in the N25million compensation he asked from the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for falsely arresting him on drug charges

In a chat with Punch, Baba Suwe said he doesn't want the money anymore, just a public apology because of how much the arrest affect both his personal and work life;

"The NDLEA has wronged me and it is meant to find a way to make me happy. It is a slap on my face. I am not agitating for the money; I don’t need it to survive in life. All I want is an apology. If the government can tender an apology to me and publish it in newspapers, I will have peace of mind and be happy,” he said.

He also denied recent reports that he's getting re-married soon.

"It is not true that I am about to get married. Don’t mind those saying it, they are saying rubbish. There is no atom of truth in it. If I would get married, it would not be a secret; everybody would hear about it. I also have it in mind to marry a woman that would love me as well as my children and give me peace of mind,” Baba Suwe said.

Popular dancer Kemi Omotoyinbo dies during child birth

Popular dancer, choreographer and part actress Kemi Omotoyinbo has died. The beautiful lady who danced for several popular musicians including Pasuma, KWAM 1 and Shina Peters, died during childbirth in a private hospital in Lagos yesterday October 1st exactly 20 days after her wedding to husband Godwin Eloanyi, which was on September 13th.

According to her friends, Kemi was in and out of labour for several days in a private hospital and when she couldn't give birth the natural way, doctors said she would have to do a C&S. The doctors told her the operation would cost N450k and demanded an initial deposit of N300k before they do it.

According to Kemi's friends, the husband couldn't come up with the money immediately but begged the hospital to carry on with the operation that he would pay the next day (October 1st) but the hospital insisted on the deposit and refused to carry out the operation. Sadly, Kemi passed away last night.

The Joy of Sex

 

Even the most loving couples get into erotic ruts.  Are sex manuals superseded by society's sexualisation to the point where no one now needs any guidance on how to 'do it'?

The new Cameron Diaz/James Segel film charts the misadventures of a couple who video their own bedroom antics - then inadvertently spread the results around.

For me though, Sex Tape has a deeper interest than simply wanting to see the adorable Miss Diaz and the equally adorable Mr Segel, or wondering whether I agree with the Rotten Tomato ratings. I'm interested because I wrote the book.
