EXCLUSIVE: ‘I won on merit’ – MBGN 2012 winner, Isabella Ayuk

25-year-old Isabella Agbor Ayuk is a graduate of Business Administration from the University of Calabar. With a huge experience on the pageant scene, the new Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria says she’s ready to face any controversy that comes with the crown…

Tell us about your background

I come from a large peaceful family, we are 25 children and I have three lovely mothers. I’m the 20th child of the family. My childhood memories were very exciting because I grew up with 24 other people and there was never a dull moment in the house.

When you were announced as the winner, how did you feel?

I just couldn’t believe it, because I had been here three times and I said to myself; ‘Is this for real? Was that Cross Rivers they just mentioned?’ I started crying because I had been here in 2009, 2010 and in 2012, so it was hard for me to believe it.

How do you feel meeting with the press first time after your crowning?

I felt so great. I felt like a super star in that moment.

The question that won you the crown was that of your pet project on typhoid. Do you intend to continue with it?

Yes, as a matter of fact, it was the project that brought me to MBGN again. I needed a platform that could help me realize a dream and to spread the news across Nigeria that typhoid is a dreaded disease that we shouldn’t take with levity. In 2006 my sister was sick and we didn’t find out on time that she had typhoid. By the time we did, it was too late, and she died. So, I intend to continue, even after MBGN.

Assaulted Beat FM staff sacked for stealing Jollof rice

Adewunmi

Last September, the name Adewunmi Oyekanmi became quite popular in the news after the infamous assault incident with BEAT FM exec Olisa Adibua.  Eight months later, Adewumni has been fired from the company.

Sources say the management was prompted to sack Adewunmi after he had another misunderstanding with a Naija FM staff  - this time over an item which was missing in the office. Adewunmi was accused of stealing another staff’s meal – a pack of Jollof rice.

Sources say, Adewunmi denied the accusation but a  CCTV camera which recorded the whole incident proved him wrong.

Insiders at the Beat insist Oyekanmi was not victimised, but only unfortunate to have been the one caught. ‘Management had been trying to stop the issue of stealing. That’s part of the reason they installed CCTV everywhere, and encouraged all staff to report cases of missing items, so these can be tracked using the CCTV recordings. It’s just unfortunate that he’s the one that was caught. If it had been anyone else, the same fate would have befallen that person’

We could not immediately reach Oyekanmi.

NET placed a phone call to the General Manger at BEAT FM Deji Awokoya who told us he would get in touch even before we could ask him any questions on the matter. ‘I’m in a meeting, I’ll call you later please, thanks’, Awokoya said over the phone.

On Thursday, September 8, 2011, Olisa who is the Director of Programmes at Naija FM, Beat FM and Classic FM had assaulted and severely injured Adewunmi, a member of staff at the Lagos radio station

The incident went public and caused a media frenzy, with people calling for Adibua’s head. This was followed by Adewunmi’s statement claiming that Olisa had settled with him. Shortly after BEAT FM released an official statement, confirming and condemning the altercation which was finally followed by Olisa’s official statement saying he was ‘sorry’. Olisa however served an indefinite suspension before resuming back at work weeks later.

NETPod: ‘Fine lady’ – Lynxxx feat Wizkid

After a debut album ‘This is Lynxxx‘ which produced the hit song ‘Change ur parade‘ and quite a number of impressive singles, Lynxxx is back with a fresh single.

This isn’t the first time the smooth-talking rapper will work with pop singer Wizkid. After their impressive combination on the rapper’s ‘Good loving’ single, Mr Utunu and Wizzy have another go at it..

‘Fine lady‘ sees Lynxxx taking a sharp turn from his previous rap style as he pulls a ‘Dr SID’ on us. Leaving the raps out, Lynxxx obviously tries to sing his way through the verses. Not impressive. Wizkid however balances up with an energetic chorus.

Modenine and Muna in war of words

Modenine says Muna is just a little girl…

Reverred rapper Modenine and beauty-queen-turned-rapper Munachi Abii were locked in a war of words during a rap competition which took place some weeks ago.

Muna, who was the host of the just concluded ‘Nokia Don’t Break the Beat’ rap competition which took place at the GET Arena on Saturday, April 28 was involved in a brief exchange with Modenine who was a head judge after the rapper decided along with the other judges (renowned disc jockey DJ Jimmy JATT and Knighthouse record label boss Rogba Arimoro) that ‘T.K.O’ had won the final rap bout, with the first runner  up being Black Jeez.

Muna sought a different opinion and made it known as she contended the judges’ decision by saying she did not agree with the decision, claiming she had a say in the judgement.

‘I don’t agree with you but, my opinion matters too, you know’, Muna told Modenine.

A clearly pissed off Modenine tried to clear Muna as to what her role as a host should be and how vastly experienced he was a Hip-Hop veteran. ‘I’ve been listening to hip-hop for a long time, trust me, you have to respect my opinion’, the rap veteran told Muna right in front of the crowd.

‘I’ve also been listening to Hip-Hop for a long time, I respect your decision but my opinion matters, please pass the mic men’, Muna rudely replied Modenine right in front of the mammoth crowd.

Speaking with Nigezie right after the show, Modenine said ‘she was very disrespectful but I had to put her in check immediately. I was called here to judge because of my level of experience….It was very wrong for her to just cut me off’.

VIDEO: ‘Shuga’ – Banky W, Wizkid, L-Tido, Bonnie

Banky W, Wizkid at the MTV shuga premiere

If you heard the song and liked it then you’ll probably love the video too.

Put Nigerian R&B singer Banky W, pop star Wizkid, South African rapper L-Tido and Kenyan Bonnie in one mix and expect nothing but a colourful display of fun, youthful energy and of course more fun.

All thanks to very good directing from Nigeria’s finest Clarence Peters, the video to Shuga (which was shot in Kenya) gets more

than a  passmark!
