Demolished Lekki Property Doesn’t Belong To Ola Of Lagos — Firm

It has been revealed that the luxury car lot recently demolished along the Lekki-Epe Expressway in Lagos doesn’t belong to popular auto influencer, Ola of Lagos.
This is according to Nigerian company, Skyewise Group.
The clarification followed widespread social media claims suggesting that the facility, which was pulled down last Saturday, was owned by the influencer known for showcasing high-end automobiles online.
Videos of the demolition had sparked outrage, showing heavy-duty equipment flattening luxury car display stands along the busy Lekki corridor, a hub for automobile dealerships.
In a statement released on Monday, the Chief Executive Officer of Skyewise Group, Elvis Abuyere, described the demolition of the firm’s office as “unfortunate and saddening.”
Abuyere explained that the action was part of the Lagos State Government’s effort to create access routes for a new waterway development project.
 
“This unfortunate incident affected several car lots along the Lekki Expressway, starting from Phase 1, where the Skyewise Group office was located,” he said.
The CEO stressed that the demolished property was solely owned by Skyewise Group, noting that only a section of the premises had been leased to Ola of Lagos for car hire operations and luxury vehicle displays.
“All necessary building approvals, operational permits, dealership licenses, and environmental levies for the property were duly obtained from the Lagos State Government,” Abuyere added.
He further disclosed that the company would release copies of the relevant documents soon.
Despite the setback, Abuyere said Skyewise had already commenced plans to rebuild and establish a bigger and better facility in Lagos.
He thanked Nigerians for their support during the incident and expressed confidence that the company would “emerge stronger and better in no distant future.”

Record Labels Wanted to Change My Sound – Johnny Drille

Nigerian singer, John Ighodaro aka Johnny Drille has opened up that he was pressured to change his musicial style but he refused.
According to him, two major labels who were interested in signing him asked him to change his sound but he chose to remain authentic.
The ‘Wait For Me’ crooner explained that Mavin Records CEO Don Jazzy took a huge gamble by signing him.
He emphasised that Don Jazzy signed him primarily because he is a fan of his music and not for profit, initially.
Speaking in a recent episode of the CreativTea podcast, Johnny Drille said,“People could never had imagined that a Mavin Records under Don Jazzy would sign an alternative artist like myself. It was weird for a lot of people.
 
“There were two other major labels in Nigeria that wanted to sign me but the conversation was always around, ‘How do we change your sound? How do we make it faster? How do we make it danceable?’
 
“However, when I met Don Jazzy, there were no conversations like that. He was just really a fan of the music…that was a big risk to take, but he pulled it off.”
Johnny Drille gained prominence after participating in the sixth season of Project Fame West Africa in 2013. His debut single ‘Wait For Me’ was released in 2015.
The singer joined Mavin Records in 2017 and released his debut album, ‘Before We Fall Asleep’ in 2012.

Mistreating Your Wife Could Ruin Your Life – Rita Edochie Warns Men

Actress Rita Edochie has sent a serious warning to men.
According to her, women are spiritual beings and have the power to make or break a man.
Edochie, on Instagram, warned men that mistreating women can lead to severe consequences, including the loss of their success and happiness.
She cautioned men against causing pain and frustration to women, stating that their lives as men can be jeopardised.
She emphasised that every right-thinking woman is a strong vessel and not as weak as societal labels may suggest.
Edochie wrote: “A good woman is the engine of every home. Argue with your keypads, na me talk am and na out of experience. Behind every successful man, there’s a good spiritual woman. Believe it or not, women are spiritual, virtuous, and substantial.
 
“Women work with God’s heart, They have the power to make and unmake you, you could be doing well today with one woman you care about, but the very moment you stop showing her love, start hitting her, talking down on her, cheating on her, sleeping outside, rejecting her food and frolicking with ladies on the night street, your glory as a man starts dropping drastically.
By the time she gets fed up and decides to walk away, trust me, your life will be in misery, and you will begin eating your own tears.”
 
“It’s simple: do not cause someone’s daughter pain and frustration, because your life as a man can be jeopardised. Every right-thinking woman is a strong vessel. And she is not as weak as the saying has labelled her to be. The heart of a woman plays a vital role in the success or failure of her man. Treat your woman well and enjoy your home in peace”.

Christian Community Criticize Me For Performing In Churches – Johnny Drille

Nigerian singer cum songwriter, Johnny Drille has called out the Christian community.

This is as he lamented that they criticize him for performing in churches.

The Mavin Records artist stated this in a recent episode of the CreativiTEA podcast.
He also noted that his music has grown beyond traditional Christian boundaries.
He said, “I love God and I’m very much involved in church, but I never really felt my music was for church. Sometimes I get invited to perform in church, which is quite interesting.
 
“I’ve gotten some backlash from the Christian community whenever I perform in churches. But the truth is my music spreads positivity. It touches the issues the church tries to avoid.” 
The singer further argued that the church often neglects conversations about love, a subject theme he believes is both important and spiritual.
He added, “The church shies away from talking about love. You go to Christian weddings you hear Davido and Wizkid song. What if the church decides that we want to start doing their own Christian love songs.”

“I knew she cared about me because she always looked out for me. Even when we were not in the same team, she always made sure I was okay. She’s my sister and will continue to be my sister,” he added.

Kola, who described himself as “true to myself,” noted that while he initially desired to win, he was content seeing someone close to him clinch the N150 million grand prize.

“I always thought I wanted to win, but at the end of the day, I was open to my sister, Imisi. She rooted for me. I’m grateful I have a sister,” he said.

He, however, declined to discuss his relationship with another housemate, Dede, saying, “I don’t want to talk about my relationship with Dede.”
