It is alleged that the deceased might have terminated his own life as a result of a protracted illness of his daughter on which he had spent a large amount of money, however, immediately after the body was found, the residents sent for some traditional worshipers to perform traditional rites to remove the corpse for burial in line with the culture of the town.

Adekunle Gold Postpones Album Release Date, Set To Drop Debut Album After Ramadan

'Orente' crooner,Adekunle Gold, has broken the hearts of many after announcing that his highly anticipated debut album will not be released on earlier said date.

The talented singer, gave the Ramadan holiday as his excuse for not dropping the album giving the fact that most muslims will not be able to listen to the songs because of Ramadan.

The album, which was earlier slated to drop on June 1, will now be released the following month, which is July. Speaking about the album on Now O' Clock podcasthosted by Wole, he said: I am pushing it forward a bit because of Ramadan, it was supposed to drop for June 1 before, but apparently it occurred to me that my muslim friends don't listen to music during Ramadan, so it makes sense to push it forward because of them as well, so by God's grace in July after Ramadan, and all of us can enjoy it together.

Some days back, Adekunle Gold, was rumored to be planning his exit from YBNL, once his album drops. According to some sources, the 'Sade' crooner might be starting his own record label.

Cristiano Ronaldo declares himself fit for Champions League final

Cristiano Ronaldo has reassured Real Madridfans he will be fit to play in Saturday'sChampions Leaguefinal against Atletico Madrid in Milan after limping out of Tuesday's training session.

Ronaldo failed to complete training for the third session in a row, leaving the pitch with a thigh problem following a clash with Real goalkeeper Kiko Casilla.

"It was a minor scare, a knock, but in a few days' time I will be well," the Portuguese forward told reporters. The 31-year-old missed the first leg of Real's semi-final against Manchester City with a thigh injury but thinks he is in better physical condition than he was before the final two years today. "I believe I'm in better shape," he said. "I've had a slight problem but it's normal as I have been the most used player in the team.

"I think this is the season where I have played the most minutes. Besides the problem of today's training session, I believe I'm at my best level." Real's goalscoring machine is just one victory away from clinching his third European crown.

Ronaldo is one goal short of matching his own record of 17 in the competition set in the 2013-14 campaign when the team lifted the European Cup for the 10th time.

"I would love to equal or even surpass that record,"Ronaldo said. "But it is not an obsession. The record is mine whether I score or not in the final. The important thing is that we win." Ronaldo is the all-time leading scorer in Europe's elite club competition with 93 goals, 78 for Real.

The former Manchester United player netted the last goal in the final in Lisbon two years ago when Real defeated Atletico 4-1 after extra-time. Ronaldo has amassed 51 goals in 47 games in all competitions this season but none against Atletico.

"I'm focused," he said. "This is the game of our lives. "The best two teams are in the final. I believe we are better but we have to play a good game. I think we will win and lift the European Cup again on Saturday."

CDQ Dumps Teebillz As His Manager

CDQ signed on to Tunji Balogun aka Tee Billz's 323 Entertainment management group back in January 2016.

In a new interview with Hip TV, CDQ confirms that he has now parted ways with his manager Teebillz - when he could no longer reach him. He said, "About me and Teebillz, I mean, Me and Teebillz are still good. Still cool, we are family.. But I'm straight like that, I am real. I have not been able to talk to him for a very long time - since the incident that happened. I tried to message him but it wasn't going through and everything.

So i had to move on with my life.. You know. I mean, I've got ambition that I'm chasing, so for no reason would i allow anything to lock that down. I am a goal getter and I can't allow anything to slow me down. So that's it! Me and Teebillz are still cool, we are still family.

Anytime we see, we would still holla, but at least, I'm a street guy, I have got to move, gotta move, gotta move. That is what matters the most.

My career comes first before anything else.

Exclusive: Lil Kesh Finally Reveals why he left YBNL, clears

Popular Nigerian rapper, singer and songwriter Lil Kesh having dropped his supposed first single Lyrically, which was immediately accepted by music lovers both home and abroad, was officially shot into limelight with his song Shoki. Born Keshinro Ololade, the 22-year old singer few weeks back dropped his debut record label YBNL for his own label, YAGI in an interview with NAIJ, speaks on why he left YBNL, his current relationship with Olamide, his next project and clears the air on Adekunle Gold’s exist form YBNL. Read excerpts of his interview below: Why choice of YAGI as the label name?

I picked the name because YAGI is the name of my debut album which mean ‘Young and getting it’ (YAGI) and it is like me because everybody knows that is my new logo. I am 22 and I am doing well for myself. Even with the name the album talks basically about me; I am just starting off and I am learning at the same time, I am getting it. I stand for YAGI and YAGI stands for me.

You left YBNL at the time when your career is growing, don’t you think that will affect your career and stand in the industry?

I am still very much around in the industry and good stuff is still going to come out from my stable and YBNL; the fact that I am floating my own label does not matter and does equally means I am no longer under YBNL because that is where a lot of people are getting it wrong. Olamide and YBNL movement is still managing me as an artiste and the fact that I have my own label simply means that YAGI records is been managed by YBNL. We are still together; I and Olamide still record in the same studio and work with same set of producers. As you all know that YBNL is a family thing and we all support each other. How is the new label doing? Like we all know that with YBNL, I had a two year contract which ended some few weeks back and the rightful thoughts of Olamide from time is that his prayer stands firm on all his label artistes that after two years, all artistes he signed will not consider signing into another record label but rather they should be able to stand on their own and try and help other people just like he believed in me as well.

Was Olamide in the known that you were going to float your own label?

Off course he was aware because we have discussed about it before my contract ended that I was going to float my own label which he is in total support of as I know I got his back always. According to speculations, is Adekunle Gold also on your YAGI label?

Ah My brother Gold is still under YBNL but most people got it wrong because he designed the label logo and my album art work. Adekunle Gold has always been supportive of my label from day one as well as other people on the YBNL label. For YAGI records, I am the only artiste on it; come to think of it where do people want me to see money from to sign Adekunle Gold; my bro is expensive just like all is songs are of good qualities. Your song ‘Life of a star’ featuring Adekunle Gold what informed it and the lyrical contents?

My life basically from me not been famous to me been famous which include the stages and experiences that comes with life, trying to adjust to a live of walking peacefully on the street and people not disturbing you but now you are restricted to what you can do and what you can say online. For me that change was quite difficult because many don’t know how freely I do my things back then before the fame came in. Basically, my album is a reflection of my past, present and probably the future as the case maybe. Life of a star came as a reflection of all I have been through, I was actually mediating when the song vibe came in; so I called Pheelz the producer that I was ready and that Adekunle Gold will be dropping few lines too. The funniest part is that I and Adekunle went for a show together in Abeokuta and travelled down to Lagos the following morning where both lodged in a hotel due to fuel scarcity then and we had all the recording tools available and Adekunle did his verse, went back to sleep, woke and continue and at the end of the day, the song came out nice. With your first album doing quite well, what is next for you? I thank God for that and I am not relenting neither am I resting; next for me now is shooting videos off the YAGI album; mores singles and better work ahead, planning tours across the continent and focusing on how to make my own label stand too. What usually informs your choice of words? like I said, I get my words from whatever I hear and what comes out of my thoughtful thinking; I equally use my instinct to record.

A murder suspect, Gift Edosomwan, who escaped from the Edo state Remand Home at Ugbekun in Benin, has been re-arrested along with an accomplice. He was nabbed around 12noon on Monday. Edosomwan was earlier arrested for allegedly killing a 28-year-old woman, Mrs. Itohan Enagbare, and her 3-year-old daughter, Iwinosa, but reportedly escaped from the juvenile home last Saturday. The suspect and others at large had on December 9, 2015, allegedly murdered the victims at their residence on Osaze Street, in the Ikpoba area of the state. The teenager, who was living with the landlady of the house, had been arraigned before a Magistrates' Court but was remanded pending the advice of the Directorate of Public Prosecutions. It was, however, learnt that he had yet to be brought before a court of competent jurisdiction, nearly 4 months after he was remanded at the juvenile home on January 25, 2016. According to Punch sources, Edosomwan and other suspect escaped when he and other inmates were brought out of their rooms to observe a morning routine. The management of the facility immediately begun a manhunt for the suspects, but “As they were being chased, they started shouting that they were being chased by cultists in order to cause a distraction. “But Edosomwan was later apprehended at the house where he allegedly committed the crime while his accomplice was caught on the way.” The murder suspect was said to have attempted to escape through the ceiling of one of the rooms, but was overpowered by the men, who took him back to the remand home. “Some residents of the area called to say he was inside the house. They even said he was a threat in the area,” the source added.

Controversial governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose has declared a war on herdsmen, after a group of herdsmen allegedly attacked communities in the state. Fayose said people to rise against the herdsmen and kill them to defend their lives, families, farmlands. Fayose visited Oke-Ako community in Ikole area of Ekiti, where suspected herdsmen killed two residents and injured four others in a night attack on Friday. He was accompanied by Commissioner of Police, Etop James; Director of Department of State Services (DSS) Andrew Iorkay; Commandant of Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, John Ikemefuna and traditional rulers led by the Elekole of Ikole-Ekiti, Oba Adewumi Fasiku. The community has become a ghost town as many residents have fled. Fayoose told local hunters, who mounted a guard of honour, to always be on guard as his administration would give them moral, financial and logistics support. The governor, who revealed that he has banned grazing in the state, pledged to follow up the ban with a bill to the House of Assembly to criminalise grazing.
