Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh becomes an illiterate

Nollywood actor turned director Sylvester Madu is about to drop a new blockbuster, Nollywoodgossip is exclusively reporting.
Speaking to Delia Innoma (Live Online With Delia) on the movie, Sylvester says:
“Illiterate features Tonto Dike, Yul Edochie, Sylvester Madu, and others.”
And narrating further, he says:
“The movie is about three good brothers who are orphans. They struggled right from childhood to survive on their own. Along the line, the youngest (Ken Erics) gave up his education to sell firewood and later became a carpenter in other to support his elder brothers (Sylvester Madu, the eldest, and Yul Edochie, the second) through school.
“The eldest was opportune to travel out of the country, but returned three years later very rich and with a pretty wife. Life became exciting for the three brothers as they lived happily together in one mansion.
“But then came along Ada (Tonto Dike), the uneducated lover of Ugo (Ken Erics), who is uneducated too. Ken insisted on marrying Tonto, but the elder brothers were firmly against it. There was a brutal fight and Ken moved away from his brothers.
“Then came along Monica (Eve Essien), who is Ekene (Yul Edochie’s) fiancée, she’s a thief, she manifested and five million naira got missing.
“The two brothers went to war with each other as to who stole the money. And as if the family wasn’t torn apart enough, the elder brother’s wife from abroad disappeared with all their money. All was lost.”
“The questions now are, can all be recovered? The wealth, the love, the unity, the smiles and laughers…and how does all these relate to Tonto Dikeh as an illiterate? Watch out for the movie illiterate!”
Wow, now we’re even more curious. We can’t wait to grab our own copies.

Great Arsenal Squad

Montpellier president Louis Nicollin claims Arsenal have completed the signing of France forward Olivier Giroud.

Giroud, part of Laurent Blanc's Euro 2012 squad which was knocked out by Spain in the quarter-finals on Saturday, is thought to command a transfer fee in the region of £13million.
The 25-year-old scored 25 goals for his club last season to help Montpellier win the Ligue 1 title, igniting the interest of several top clubs.
Last week, Gunners boss Arsene Wenger revealed a deal was "90%" complete as he looked to add the promising Frenchman to his squad, which has already been bolstered by the arrival of Germany marksman Lukas Podolski.
Speaking to French newspaper Midi Libre, Montpellier president Nicollin confirmed the transfer had now been completed after Arsenal met the player's release clause.
Nicollin said: "I wish him well."
Arsenal have not yet made any official comment, but Press Association Sport understands an announcement by the Barclays Premier League club is imminent.
Once the transfer for Giroud is formally complete, Arsenal could then look to offload some of their fringe players, including Denmark striker Nicklas Bendtner and Morocco international Marouane Chamakh as well as Mexico forward Carlos Vela and Brazilian midfielder Denilson.
However, Nicollin maintained a move to take Chamakh in the opposite direction back to France was not part of the Giroud deal.
Wenger, who is at the European Championship working as a media pundit, is convinced Giroud can be a big hit at Arsenal.
"I think he has exceptional potential and will integrate very well in our collective and our way of playing," he said last week.
"He is a real team player and knows how to combine with other players and I'm sure he will do well with us."

Pastor Chris Okotie Divorces 2nd Wife Stephanie

It was a shock for the congregation of pop star turned cleric, Pastor Kris Okotie when he announced the break-up in his marriage of four years to his second wife, Stephanie yesterday.
While Okotie is divorcing for the second time, Stephanie has now been married three times and has three children from her first two marriages.The break-up also puts an end to dream twins that Okotie expected her to deliver someday.
The news, which enveloped the Household of God Church, Oregun, Lagos stunned members, as they stood still and speechless for seconds after he dropped the bombshell shortly before the close of Sunday service.
The Sunday service which coincided with the June’s brethren’s’ birthday celebration had recorded soul lifting songs and dances interspersed with prayers, ministration and cutting of the cake. Okotie, in a sparkling white short-sleeve suit suddenly drew the attention of the churchwith the unexpected announcement.

“Stephanie and I are no longer married. We have separated. You can see she’s not in church today. It’s due to irreconcilable differences and you should please respect our wishes at this time because there is no going back.”

Mancini Insist that Balotelli was better than Rooney

Roberto Mancini believes Italy's Mario Balotelli eclipsed Wayne Rooney during Sunday's Euro 2012 quarter-final with England.
Rooney was a peripheral figure as Roy Hodgson's side struggled to contain Italy in Kiev, and Cesare Prandelli's outfit eventually prevailed on penalties after a 0-0 draw.
Mancini has hit back at those who have questioned Balotelli's part in the victory after missing a number of gilt-edged chances, saying that his City marksman outperformed Rooney.
"I think perhaps many are underestimating what (Balotelli) did," Mancini told the Corriere dello Sport. "He was always at the heart of the game, had five or six chances, and was a bit unlucky.
"But we want to compare him with Rooney, who we only noticed when it came to penalties. 'Super Mario' did much better, and he's a great striker we must support all the way."
The Premier League-winning manager went on to praise the play of Prandelli's side, who controlled much of the last-eight fixture on their way to a semi-final meeting with Germany.
"The Azzurri dominated almost the entire match, by far and away, as if they came down from another planet," he said. "In the second half and in extra time, they crushed England.
"They took my breath away as I waited for the killer goal. That it did not come was only down to tiny details. Beyond Balotelli I saw a great Italy.
"Prandelli also made changes very well while Hodgson thought only to defend himself and had no effect. When (Antonio) Nocerino and (Alessandro) Diamanti came on, they gave a great boost."

Italy will now compete with Germany for a place in Sunday's final.

Former Liverpool defender Miki Roque has died in Barcelona at the age of 23 following a battle against cancer.

Real Betis defender Roque was at Liverpool from 2005 to 2009, winning the FA Youth Cup in 2006, before joining the Spanish club.
He played once for the first team - against Galatasaray in the Champions League in December 2006.
A Liverpool statement read: "Everyone would like to send their thoughts to Miki's family at this sad time."
Roque underwent surgery to remove a tumour in his pelvis last year.
While at Liverpool, Roque had a loan spell with Oldham at the end of 2006-07. He also made temporary moves to Spanish sides Xerez and Cartagena before switching permanently to Betis.

Harry Styles Had An Affair With Married Woman?

We know Harry Styles is definitely a ladies man...but having an affair with a married lady?! We think he might be taking it a little too far!

British paper The Mirror is reporting that Styles, who was 17 at the time, lured 32-year-old DJ Lucy Horobin after meeting her for a radio interview. Apparently they flirted big time during the interview, and then took it to another level later that day.

The affair was said to have last just a few weeks but almost wrecked DJ Horobin's marriage. A source close to 1D said, "Harry's got a record for pulling some of the most beautiful women in showbiz and couldn't resist Lucy's beautiful looks. He found her really witty and very sexy. Lucy was going through a rocky patch with her husband."

The source then added, "He charmed his way into her life and brought a little bit of excitement with him. Lucy was confused about her feelings for her husband."

Do you guys think Harry would have seduced a married woman? Is that his 'Style?

Didier Drogba Complete move to Shanghai Shenhua

Former Chelsea striker Didier Drogba has completed his long-anticipated move to Shanghai Shenhua, signing a two-and-a-half year deal with the Chinese Super League club.

Drogba, 34, who confirmed his intention to leave Stamford Bridge after scoring the winning penalty for Chelsea in the Champions League final shoot-out victory over Bayern Munich, will earn a reported £200,000 a week.

"I have considered all the offers I have received in the past few weeks, but feel that Shanghai Shenhua FC is the right move for me at this time," he said. "I am looking forward to a new challenge, to experiencing a new culture, and am excited about the new developments in the Chinese Super League.

"When Chelsea went to China last year, we had a great time and I met some amazing fans. I hope to help promote Chinese football around the world and further improve the links between China and Africa."

Drogba will join up with his new team-mates, including his former Chelsea strike partner Nicolas Anelka, in July.

Owner Zhu Jun, the video games magnate who runs the free-spending club, wants the Ivory Coast international to spearhead Shenhua's challenge for a Super League title.

"We have been wanting to sign Didier for a while, and are very happy that it has finally happened," Zhu Jun said.

"He is an incredible player who has won so many trophies in his career. We feel that his experience and ability will be a very valuable asset to our squad. Shanghai is one of the most influential cities in the world, and we are very excited to welcome Didier here."

New manager Sergio Batista paid tribute to the club's owner for attracting a player of Drogba's calibre to China.

"Drogba is a very good soccer player - his outstanding skills and amazing experience will give us motivation to improve our games," Batista said. "It is my honour to invite him to join our team."

D'banj to launch his own record "DKM Records"

DKM stands for D'Koko Master Records and Kayswitch is the only artiste signed to the record label for now. A few more artistes will be unveiled in the coming months.

D'Koko Master Records will be officially launched in Lagos at a concert that will feature D'banj, Kayswitch and other DKM artists.

And contrary to popular reports that Davido is signed to D'banj's label, it has been confirmed to be false. Davido is signed to his own record label, HKN Records. He's only doing some musical collaborations with D'banj
