The wife told City People in an exclusive interview that the marriage ended because K-Solo was in it for money and also because he assaulted her so much she lost the pregnancy she was carrying when they got married. K-Solo and I met on Facebook in April 2011 and continued our friendship on Blackberry. We eventually met face to face at a show in Eko Hotel in Lagos. I am not really based in Lagos. I am always in Warri, Port Harcourt, South Africa or Cameroon. I am always traveling because of my business. But because of K-Solo. I started coming to Lagos frequently after we started dating. By August of 2011 we started having issues. He was actually scamming one girl. One Leilani Ifeoma in Houston, Texas. Apparently they have not met physically, they met on the internet and she was also into entertainment so K-Solo started scamming her, collecting money from her and promising her marriage. The day I got to know I was in his house. He left his phone and stepped out, so I picked the

If Funke and her man wanted to prevent the media and the public from intruding their wedding, according to what a close relation of the groom told us, then should their invited guests bear the brunt? Without beating about the bush, no matter the accolades that have been trailing the wedding between actress Funke Akindele and her man, Kenny Almaroof which held over the weekend, not mentioning some disappointing and disgraceful incidents at the event will be tantamount to paying the couple particualarly Funke a mere eyes service. It was so unbelieveable that Funke deliberately had the printer put a wrong venue on her wedding Invitation Cards and left her guests to figure out the venue themselves. "If she disclosed the venue on the invitation cards, do you know how rowdy the event will be? All these journalists will also have taken over this place by now. Funke said she doesn't want to see journalists. We don't want a situation whereby some unvited guests will storm the

Remember her, the Nollywood I.T. girl whose naked and offensive photos made their way into the pages of a popular soft-sell publications sometimes ago. This girl whose questionable dressing, fake and snubbish attitude have overtime received an emphatic thumb down by many movie experts was said to be involved in a ghastly road accident on the 3rd Mainland Bridge, Lagos some days back. However, shocking is the fact that just 3 days after the Tinsel actress narrowly escaped death, why she was the only person a dog mysteriously picked an interest in attacking and bite while on a movie set at Festac, still remains a question her colleagues have not found an answer for. Moyo who is still one of the big time hustling girls in the industry, shouted "Halleluyah!" when she got a cameo in popular MNET series, Tinsel, but unfortunately for
