HOT,HOT HALLE BERRY

Yesterday,30th May 2009 at Spikes TV 2009 'Guys Choice' award held at Sony Studios,Los Angeles,Hollywoods hottest all-time actress, Halle Berry was honoured with the Decade of hotness award.

She actually displayed her 'hotness' when she engaged Jammie Foxx,who presented the award to her, in a passionate and somewhat provocative lips kissing,with Jammie giving her a hard squeeze on her buttocks.She responded by grabbing Jammie's crotch! Her fans felt this was quite too far.She should have handled herself a bit more better and maturedly.

PROF. WOLE SOYINKA'S MOMENTS

Watched Nobel Laureate,Professor Wole Soyinka on Mo Abudu's Moments With Mo on DStv's African Magic channel. It was the vintage Wole Soyinka. I couldn't help laughing my ribs out when asked by Mo to rate the Nigerian former President,Olusegun Obasanjo as a student of his. The Prof. replied that ''Obasanjo was a complete failed student!''He even added something like He (Obasanjo) needing a Psychiatrist, with the Psychiatrist's result having to be thoroughly examined and analysed by another senior Psychiatrist,before it can be duly considered. Haba, Prof.! This is sounding like the case of Mad Men and Specialist.

ACHEBE:AN AFRICAN VOICE STILL FRESH

Took these pictures when Prof. Chinua Achebe featured on CNN's African voices.He was interviewed by 'our own' Lola Ogunnaike.Apart from his writings,another thing that thrills so much me about Achebe,is his voice. Age has not affected the emotion in the old man's voice. I remember back in the days when I always had a Cassette ready so as to ensure that I record his interviews or talks on BBC Radio or Voice Of America.

WHEN MY FRIENDS TIED THE NUPTIAL KNOTS

The month of April was indeed fun. I tried being here and there trying to catch up with one thing or the other.I had wedding invitations from two of my real good friends,Amaka Anyanwu and Lawrence Omadiaga to attend.I couldn't just find any reason not to. Amaka had her traditional wedding at Inyishi,in Ikeduru Local Government Area of Imo state,Eastern Nigeria.She got married to Pharmacist Emeka Osegbo.

Lawrence 'Lawrenzo' Omadiaga took beautiful Irene Usifo to the Altar at Mother The Reedeemer Catholic Church, Warri,Delta State,Mid-western Nigeria. The happy pictures tells the rest of the story.

I wish my friends blissful married lives.
