The flamboyant boss of Thisday Newspaper, Nduka Obaigbena is said to have joined the list of jet owners.

The man of means whose Arise TV has snatched the reins in that aspect of broadcasting with the series of dignitary interviews, analysis and top news is said to have taken the delivery of the airplane some days ago.

Sources claimed the machine is from an engineering company in Germany and put the cost at almost 2 million dollars.

Known for his flamboyant lifestyle, the ‘Duke’ as he is popularly known is said to have taken the acquisition to ease his journey in and out of Nigeria. He is said to be one of the most travelled  journalists in Africa.

A source hinted that the media guru wanted to make no noise of the acquisition but the news spilled out after he reached out to a pilot-friend who was saddled with the role of employing a young, brilliant pilot for the airplane.

Revealed! The Flamboyant Lifestyle Of Osahon Okunbor (his alleged affair with popular designer, Sandra Tubobereni)

The late Industrialist and philanthropist, Captain Hosa Okunbo has a flamboyant son whose fun- loving personality is in sharp contrast with his father’s disposition.
Although, Osa as he is known, has been in and out of the news for a while now, the socialite became a hit on the social scene and he is enjoying it to the fullest.
Fondly called Osa among his peers, he boasts of a garage filled with wonders on wheels. And the average, dark in complexion fine boy stops at nothing to spend money as if it will soon go out of circulation.
His name was everywhere from Lagos, down to Benin and even Abuja, as he sure enjoyed a wide attention, until his fathers death. The son of the late Billionaire businessman got tongues wagging some years ago, when he was painting the town red cruising a choice brand of Range Rover exotic cars.
The news making the rounds then was that because of his lifestyle, he has been having it rough with his step mum, Nosa Okunbo who always thinks he lavishes money to the extreme and may end up selling off their fathers properties if care is not taken. But Osahon, who is enjoying his life, does not care what anyone says about him…
It would be recalled that sometimes last year it was a fierce battle between Osahon and his step mum, Nosa Okunbo when he allegedly put up the banana island property for sale and these led to Nosa’s advertorial in national newspaper pleading that nobody should buy the property as it is fuelled by Osahon who want to make more money to fund his lifestyle. We even heard she dragged him to court in London.
We gathered that he is allegedly having an alleged romance with a popular Lagos fashion designer, Sandra Tubobereni popularly known as Tubo in the fashion scene.
An insider hinted us that the duo have been an item for a while now as they have both been seen enjoying luxury lifestyle and lavishing money here and there. Our source told us further that they were sighted recently at a beach house where Tubo was allegedly romantically giving Osa a lap dance.
Further findings revealed that Osahon has been the sponsor of Tubo’s flamboyant lifestyle and the many destination trips. Although, our source hinted to us that Tubo is not the only one enjoying his generosity as he is also alleged to be frolicking with other girls as he was alleged to have flown a lady in from brazil recently to water his urge.
He hinted to us further that Osahon has been doing all in his capacity to make her happy and do all she wants as he was alleged to have gotten her a car not long ago. Adding that this is one of the reasons why most of the family members have been restricted from accessing money from their late fathers account.
For the benefit of those who don’t know Tubo, Sandrah Tubobereni is the creative Director of TUBO, an emerging Nigerian designer, best known for her creativity in redesigning the traditional African bridal, distinctive silhouette and chic prêt-à-porter fashion clothing. She came into the Nigerian fashion scene in November 2014 when she switched from her career in Business Development and Finance.
We only hope the families of the late Philanthropist would come to terms and continue the legacy of their late Dad who has done well in business both in Nigeria and in the international environment….

Interview: Kabiyesi Does Not Have A Favourite Among His Wives -Olubadan’s eldest wife, Olori Olayinka

In this interview with the papermache crew, Olori Olayinka traced the beginning, how she met the Olubadan, the attraction and hos she is faring in the palace…
How Would You Describe Your Experience In The Palace These Few Months?
 I wasn’t ready for that.  I will say it is neither easy and it is not too difficult also. It’s been like a mixture because there are some scenarios that we are able to manage quite easily but there are some times that we also have to be diplomatic , which means you might not get your outcomes easily.  So, it’s been like both sides really.
What Were You Doing Before Your Husband Became The Olubadan?
I’m a nurse I actually lived in the UK.
 Before baba became the Kabiyesi, you know the lineage, they are already acting in that role, all they were waiting for is to get to that stage where they will say kabiyesi.  As a high chief or a lower chief if you know the Ibadan lineage, once they come from the lineage of the Mogaji, they actually behave like high chiefs, the high chiefs are very near to Kabiyesi. They comport themselves in a chiefly way.
  So from the day I met my husband, he was not a Mogaji  then, I remember going to the Olubadan much later  to take the Mogaji title, and from that moment you know up to this point, you are aware that he can become the kabiyesi one day. He comports himself, he attends meetings, he attends to people in his family house. So whatever he did that time and still does now we are just to complement him.  We as wives too, we support the women around here, in his family and in the populace. So when women come here, we know that we have to attend to them, in solidarity and make sure that they are well relaxed. Whatever they come to seek from Baba we support them to get it done and get the outcomes.
That means you’ve been prepared for the role long ago?
 Yes
 How long ago was that?
 He was not even Mogaji when I met him. My first son, Sheriff is now 36 years old, so it’s been a long time.
  At a point I relocated when he was a senator and he moved to Abuja and then I relocated too  and from that point it’s been like in and out because I took the children with me to the United Kingdom, and you know in UK you have to look after your children .  vgfd

Youthful monarch and the Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi is giving love a chance again.
This is coming from the details of his dalliance with the Administrative Manager of NestOil, Mariam Anako who is said to have been an item with the monarch for some time.
Those in the know claimed the Ooni has done everything possible to keep the relationship secret, judging by his past experiences with Queen Zainab and Queen Silekunola.
A source hinted that the relationship had undergone its first course, with the monarch meeting with the family of his lover in February of this year.
The indication that the Ooni was trying to settle for Mariam as his new wife was strengthened with the renovation of the quarters vacated by the last queen, Naomi, with news spreading round the Palace that a new wife is coming.
The new ‘Olori’ is most likely to move into the palace by August, the source revealed. Further checks also revealed that Mariam Anako is an indigene of Kogi State but grew up in Kwara.
The Ooni after being made king married Queen Zainab Otiti, the marriage didn’t last as she left the Ife Palace.
The Ooni later married an Akure based preacher, Queen Silekunola who bore him a son.
Their marriage for unknown reasons did not also stand the test of time as the queen was ejected from the Palace.
This proposed wedding is the third and the more reason the Youthful monarch who is regarded a ladies man wants to protect at all cost.
