Bisola whom many call “transcorp big girl” is beautiful and smart but many people are against the liaison because Hakeem is married.Coincidentally, the name of Hakeem’s wife is also Bisola and they got married in a high society wedding in 2001. A few friends, however, disclosed that there is no way Wosilat Okoya-Badmus would allow her daughter to be a second wife. At the wedding of Alhaji Rasaq and Sade, we saw the two of them chatting and Bisola was obviously very happy.

It would be recalled that shortly after her one year endorsement deal with Lux beauty soap, Genevieve became less visible on the social scene. Genevieve’s appearance in movies also depreciated. While speaking with www.niyitabiti.blogspot.com yesterday, the Imo State born award winning actress declared that her non appearance in most productions is a matter of choice.

The Cross River State born actress was at the MUSON to attend the business anniversary of one of her friends.Immediately, the gate into the premise was opened, gate keepers also followed her to the parking lot, hailing her in the process as a diva. In turn she took her bag and gave them money.

That was what happened recently at K’s Place, an upscale hangout on Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island A slim built son of an ex-governor in Nigeria had his way but not without humiliating the man who would have thrown him out of the club. The young man was turned back when he tried to enter one of the VIP sections of the club. The bouncer who was oblivious of the boy’s status because of the way he was dressed, turned him back. The whole thing degenerated into an argument. The governor’s son became visibly angry,suddenly he dipped his hand into his pocket and landed the hefty bouncer a slap with money in his hands. The bouncer got confused but jubilated when he saw the bail of N500 notes (Everything amounted to N50, 000).He quickly picked it and thanked the chap who is barely 20.
