Should We Slap Jay Z or Hug Him for Doing This?


We all know that Jay Z is a multi-millionaire and we also know that he is one of the biggest rappers (if not the biggest) alive in the United States today.

However, what many might not know is that he can take the subway like every other person if he chooses to despite his millionaire status which can afford him to fly a jet if he wanted to.

Should We Slap Danny DeVito and Wife For Ending Their 30-Year-Old Marriage?


After three decades, many would expect them to have seen it all in terms of matrimonial highs and lows but this was when Hollywood star, Danny DeVito and his wife, Rhea Perlman chose to bring their 30-year-old marriage to an end.

According to the veteran actor's publicist, the union has officially come to an end. They got married in 1982 and have been blessed with three children, Lacy (aged 29), Grace (aged 27) and Jacob (aged 27).

Another interesting afternoon it was and i was loaded with creative juice when i saw this picture of Adenike Adegbite (I'll tell you who she is in a bit) and then something struck me.

My Encounter With a 10-Year-Old Breadwinner [DIARY]



At his age, Sodiq Olumide under normal circumstances should be totally engrossed with school work, running errands for daddy and mummy, eating at the appropriate time and learning his first and lasting lessons of life.

This is arguably the normal atmosphere under which a 10-year-old child should be found growing.
However, this is a far cry from the deviant peculiarities that have become a constant part of Olumide’s life.
From Monday through Friday, Olumide roams the streets of Abeokuta with his peers playing, chatting away and seemingly having fun but on Saturdays and Sundays, Olumide takes on the responsibilities of a man.
In a chat with SLAPSnHUGS, Olumide revealed how he wanders through the familiar terrains of Abeokuta with older boys and girls of like minds in search of parties and ceremonies where they can work and earn money.

A Slap or a Hug for Nigerian Who Spent N20m on Wedding?


Babasola Olusoga runs Aso Ebi, an event planning outfit in Lagos. For a young man in his 20s, he has clinched some enviable jobs, which could make older hands in the business go green with envy. His winning streaks? He opens up in this interview with PUNCH

Q: How was Aso Ebi established?

A: It all started while I was in the university. My clothes were unique. Even for accessories, everyone wanted to know where and how I bought my things. So, I reasoned that I can actually make money if I sell these things to these guys. That was where the knack to buy and sell kicked off from. After graduation, I opened a boutique in Surulere, Lagos which I called Dojee. I ran the outfit for five years. At a point, I decided to start something on African clothes. So, I had a change of business to follow my idea and Aso-ebi came up. Before that, I was selecting pieces for people whenever they were having their parties especially uniforms.
