Fans panic as ‘Desmond Elliot’ passes away

Mistaken identity- Elliot is alive and well

Fans of Nigerian actor-director, Desmond Elliot have been thrown into a state of confusion and panic following the rumour of his death which reportedly happened recently. The story had different versions as some claimed he was slaughtered in a hotel, others claimed he was involved in a fatal accident.

None of this however, is true, as Elliot is alive and well.

NET gathered that it may have been a case of mistaken identity as a popular Jamaican broadcaster with same name had died months earlier. The Jamaican Elliot was the former director of TV programmes at the Jamaican Broadcasting Corporation as well as free lance producer of Golden Memories, a popular programme on the Jamaican TV.

Meanwhile, there is yet to be a word or reaction to the story from the Nigerian actor’s quarters.

Desmond Elliot recently released to the cinemas, his latest movie, In The Cupboard which had as cast, likes of Ini Edo, Lydia Forson, Uti Nwachukwu, Alex Ekubo and others.

Is Funke Akindele pregnant or not?

The debate is still on: is Funke Akindele Oloyede pregnant or not?

The Nollywood star was seen at the recently held Nigeria Entertainment Awards (NEA) in New York, with a little  belly bulge in her butter coloured glittery dress; fuelling speculation that she may be pregnant.

Weeks later, we’re told the Glo Ambassador was also spotted looking a bit ‘fuller’ at a movie location.

If the actress is trying to keep this news a secret from the public, it won’t last for too long, as the ‘nine month course’ can’t be hidden for too long. Some have speculated that she may already be rounding off her first trimester; while those in her camp continue to rubbish the pregnancy rumours.

No word yet from her or her reps.

Akindele recently married property developer, Almaroof Adeola Kehinde Oloyede,  popularly known as Kenny Doo on Saturday, May 26, 2012, at the Haven event centre, GRA Ikeja, Lagos .

His got the body- the six packs and all and he loves to flaunt them at any given opportunity. His name is Peter Okoye, one half of the boy band Psquare and he’s got everyone’s girlfriend weak at the knees.

The singers have had yet another photoshoot at Squareville (that’s the Psquare mansion) and we can definitely tell from the photo above that the ladies (and their mums) will commence drooling again.

Olaolu Femi: Nigerian student faces life imprisonment in Ukraine, another hearing on the controversial case

Ukraine, Luhansk - The doorsteps of the local court in the eastern city of Luhansk witnessed an unusual scene on Sept. 12.
A dozen people gathered there demanded a fair trial for a 20-year-old foreign student from Nigeria. Opposite them, a group of 5 ultranationalists demanded a death sentence, despite the fact that capital punishment has been abolished in Ukraine.
Olaolu Sunkanmi Femi has spent more than 10 months behind bars in pre-trial detention for allegedly attempting to kill 4 local men with a broken-off bottle neck. If found guilty, he could face life in prison in a case which human rights activists say is a set-up.

On Nov. 5, 2011 Olaolu and his friend were coming to their classmates’ apartment. They saw a group of 6 young locals in the courtyard. The versions of what happened next vary.
Olaolu and his friend’s story seem pretty typical for Ukraine, where racist attacks are far from being exceptional.
“Olaolu says he and his friend were drunk, and were coming to their friend’s apartment. In the yard they were verbally abused by a group of drinking young people who yelled racist slurs about monkeys, Africa and the like. When Olaolu replied angrily, some of the group became aggressive, chased them and beat them up,” says Maksym Butkevych, coordinator of the No Borders human rights center, which is monitoring the case.
His friend fell on the ground, but Olaolu tried to defend himself with the neck of a bottle – all that was left from a broken whiskey bottle he was taking to his friend’s.
The locals’ side of the story is exactly the opposite. Dmytro Lemenchuk says he was attacked by Olaolu for no reason when he was leaving the building. As his friends  – Artem Loboda, Vitali Gaman and Inna Pashkova - rushed to the rescue, they were all attacked by Olaolu as well – beaten and cut with the bottle neck.
The prosecutor claims Olaolu was running after each of his victims with the bottleneck and threatening to kill them.
Why would Onaolu do something like this?
