Does President Jonathan deserves a pass mark?


I JUST read Mr. Remi Adekoya’s piece in the Guardian of the U.K. entitled ‘Goodluck Jonathan’s report card for Nigeria? Must try harder’ in which he praised President Jonathan for a booming economy but came down hard on him for failing to help Nigeria’s poor.

When Adekoya says “Infrastructure also remains a problem. Without a modern road network, doing business in Nigeria will remain prohibitively expensive and logistically challenging”, he betrays a surface understanding of recent events in Nigeria.a

Journalist diagnosed with failed kidneys

                                              Nurudeen Jewoola
 Two months ago, when Nurudeen Jewoola, aka Astro, a journalist with Newswatch Daily, began experiencing constant fatigue, he naturally blamed it on the hectic schedule of his job.

It was a near-death experience that brought to light the condition of his health and the state of his kidneys.

“I had no inkling that my kidneys were failing. The only symptom I had at the time was constant fatigue and I didn’t know it had anything to do with my kidneys.

All of a sudden, I came down with an intense cold; I was shivering.

"I can act nude' - actress Uche Ogbodo says




In a new interview, the actress says she can act nude if that's what's required of her. She explains:
"I can do anything in acting. There is no limit to what I can do on stage as an actress because I'm a professional actress and I don't care because that role I am playing can is touching somebody somewhere. If you give me a nude role that has something to teach people, and does not affect any culture and tradition, I will do it. That is why I am an actress. I don't care what people might say or think about me
Dear Afrocandy, contact Uche ASAP. Lol *kidding o*

Friends, Nollywood, Govt abandoned me, says ailing Actor Peter Bunor

                                         *Peter Bunor
VETERAN Nollywood actor and one of the industry’s patriarchs and pioneer role interpreters Peter Bunor has been to death and back since he was struck by a deadly stroke.

His state of health presently is so bad to the extent that except help comes to him urgently, the industry may witness the loss of another star actor after Enebeli Enebuwa. To many who know how bad his health conditions have been in the last one year, his being alive today is a miracle.
