Xclusive Gist – Sunny Okosuns’ family disowns ex-queen, Ethel, says she’s not their father’s daughter



That’s strange. I’ve known Ethel for a while now and I’ve always thought she’s the daughter of late music legend Sunny Okosuns…but the family is now saying she’s not their father’s daughter.


Ethel Okosuns won the Miss Earth Nigeria pageant in 2005 and is currently the project director of Exquisite Face of Africa pageant. In an interview with Vanguard just last month, Ethel talked about growing up as Sunny Okosuns’ daughter and said she still missed her dad…



But the Okosuns family in a statement exclusively made available to Vanguard and signed by the singer’s son, Sidney Ehimare Okosuns disowned Ethel. The wrote:



“We wish to state categorically that Ms. Ethel is not our sibling. She is not the daughter of our father. Our father had four children: Sidney Okosuns, Michael Okosuns, Adesuwa Okosuns and Ebony Okosuns.




This is not the first time Ms. Ethel has … used our late father’s image and likeness as “name dropping” to achieve whatever affluence she seeks. She needs to stop identifying herself as the daughter of the Ozziddi great musician.



Years ago, Ms. Ethel as a teenager wondered into our Yaya Abatan home. Our parents ran a liberal attitude home, welcoming visitors and strangers to our sprawling Ogba Estate. Thus, our home was always busy with people from all walks of life.


Ms. Ethel walked into our home, pleaded with my dad that she wanted to sing and had no other place to live in Lagos. My parents welcome her to our compound, offered her unconditional food, shelter and love. She never left for several years. The generosity and kindness of providing her food and shelter does not give her automatic birth right to the Okosuns.”

Xclusive Gist – 9 members of a family, 13 others killed in fresh attack in Plateau



A man and eight members of his family were attacked and killed in the early hours of this morning Thursday October 10th by men suspected to be cattle rustlers. The man identified as Tsok Gwom, who is a cattle rearer, lived in a community in the Bajin Kogi Forum District of Barkinladi LGA of Plateau State, was killed alongside his wife, his sister, one other woman, five children and the man’s neighbour.


Eyewitnesses said armed men numbering over 30 stormed the area around 2.00am and massacred the family. The gunshots they fire during the attack alerted vigilante members in the community who launched a reprisal attack, killing about 12 of the attackers.


Confirming the incident, Police Public Relations officer in Plateau, Felicia Anslem, said policemen have been deployed to the area.

Xclusive Gist – ‘Why I Was Unhappy Under Sir Alex Ferguson ‘ – Wayne Rooney

Wayne Rooney has revealed he was unhappy at Manchester United under Sir Alex Ferguson because he felt he was being played out of position.


Rooney says he was fed up with being played in midfield, but insists that he is now happy and settled under new manager David Moyes, who is fielding him up front.


Although Ferguson’s name was not mentioned as Rooney spoke of the frustrations he felt at being repeatedly selected out of position, it was clear the major difference at United this season is Moyes occupying the manager’s chair.


“You can clearly see I’m playing and I’m happy in my football,” said Rooney. “David Moyes has come in, he’s playing me up front, and I’m enjoying it.


“I’ve had no problem playing out of position in the past, but I’m a forward and I felt I deserved the right to play in my position.


“That wasn’t happening. Naturally I was a bit disappointed and maybe that affected some of the games I played because last season wasn’t my best.


“Everyone at the club knew where I wanted to play. Maybe I will play in midfield when I’m a bit older if I have lost my legs a bit but I didn’t want to play there.


“I’m not saying I am going to throw my arms up in the air and not do it if we were hanging on a bit in the last 10 minutes of a game and I got asked to drop back. But there came a point where I had to be a bit selfish for my own career.”


Rooney’s contractual situation – he has less than two years to run on his current deal – is also uncertain, and he stopped short of confirming he wants to stay at Old Trafford beyond this season.


“To be honest I’ve been settled all summer,” he said. “I know from the outside looking in it might not have seemed like that, but I have.


“I spoke with the people who matter at the club and we knew what we were doing. The club made that clear.


“My wife had a new child and I’ve been really happy. I’m not going to go on saying I wanted to stay or I wanted to leave.


“I just want to concentrate on my football. We’ll see what happens after that.”

Xclusive Gist – Seven-year-old leads police to smash Lagos kidnap syndicate



According to a report by Punch, a 7year old boy led police to the smash of a Lagos kidnap syndicate that specializes in the kidnap of little children, weeks after he was kidnapped and released by them…


Punch reports



A university graduate and two other suspects were on Wednesday paraded by the Lagos State Police Command, following their arrest, by a tip off from a seven-year-old victim.





The graduate of Economics of Olabisi Onabanjo University, Gbenga Sholaja; Olalekan Benjamin and Samson Shomorin, who specialise in kidnapping little boys, were arrested by men of the Igando Police Division and the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, Ikeja, Lagos.



The victim (name withheld) was said to have been held hostage at Benjamin’s father’s house at Ikotun, Lagos.



The child, who was later released after ransom was paid by his parents, was said to have memorised the house address where he was kept. It was the child who led police officers to the same house where Benjamin was arrested.



Sholaja, who wept profusely during his interview, told PUNCH Metro that he was pushed by unemployment into kidnapping. He said, “I have a Second Class Upper (Division) in Accounting and have completed my National Youth Service Corps programme.

“I went into kidnapping because since I finished my NYSC in 2011, I have been unable to get a job.”

An ex-convict, who was remanded in prison for kidnapping three years ago, Benjamin, said he met Sholaja at OOU while he was trying to gain admission into the school.

He said, “I was a casual worker at a factory in 2007 before I was sacked; I earned N300 per day. After staying idle for some months, I met a friend, Muyiwa, we were carriers of frozen fish at Apapa. He introduced me to Taofeeq.

“One day, Taofeeq brought a small boy to my house and asked me to take care of him. He claimed that the boy was his younger brother; he was about seven years old. The boy stayed in my house with my family and was well taken care of for four days. Taofeeq even sent money for his upkeep.

“When Taofeeq went to collect N150, 000 ransom, he was arrested by SARS and he led them to my house. We were charged and sent to prison in November 2009. In September 2010, we were released because the complainant refused to show up in court.”

Benajmin and his wife, upon his release, then moved to his father’s house at Ikotun area of the state. In 2010, he was said to have met Sholaja in OOU, where he went to write the post-Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examination.

The 30-year-old claimed that Sholaja invited him to take part in another kidnapping; he said Sholaja had read about Benjamin’s arrest in the newspapers.

Benjamin said, “We would kidnap one boy and we would keep the boy in his (Sholaja’) mother’s house at Owode Ijako.

“After a week, the boy’s parents paid the money. We were given N100,000 and my share was just N40,000.”

Describing their modus operandi, Benajmin said they usually kidnapped children while on their way to or from school. All suspects were said to have collected a total of N260,000 on two separate occasions, to secure the release of two boys.

Benjamin told PUNCH Metro that he befriended potential victims by buying them biscuits on their way to school, thereby earning their trust.

He said, “It was the last kidnap that got us into trouble. I drove away not knowing that the boy memorised my father’s house address, where he was kept.

“After he was released, he led policemen to the house and I was arrested along with my dad but my dad was later released on bail.”

Shomorin, on his part, confessed to kidnapping three boys. He urged the government to pardon them, promising not to go back to crime.

Lagos Deputy Police Public Relations Officer, Damasus Ozoani, said the suspects were arrested on September 29, 2013.

Ozoani said, “They confessed to have kidnapped three children -one from Omole Phase 1; one Kola at Alagbado area and the last one in Owode Ijako, Ogun State, and various amounts of money were collected as ransom.”

Xclusive Gist – Video and Photos: Rihanna gets a traditional Maori tattoo



Legendary New Zealand tattoo artist Inia Taylor yesterday shared images of Rihanna getting a permanent traditional Maori tattoo on her right hand. The Maori tattoo is one of the most painful kind of skin marking out there because instead of needle puncture, this one is performed with chisel, ink pigment and mallet…and rather than a smooth surface like modern tattoo would give you, this one leaves the skin with grooves.


She got the tattoos in New Zealand after wrapping up one leg of her world tour. Rihanna seems to like pain, sha! Y’all need to watch the video of her getting the tattoo, painful to watch. See the video and the end result after the cut…





Don’t like!
