Hakym, The Lamba King Attacked By Thugs In Festac

Hakym is an artist that always look out for fresh talented producers to work with, it has been said that the Lamba king as he's popularly called often leaves his studio to tour other studios in different locations no matter the area. Maybe this restless behaviour might come to an end now as a result of this unfortunate incident that took place in Festac, yesterday 30th july.

Sources close to the act revealed that he had pre informed a producer in Festac named Micon that he would be working with him yesterday, and indeed showed up to his studio in festac at about 3pm with his entourage. About 3hours into the session, a gang of 6 Area boys barged into the studio speaking loudly in yoruba. According to eye witnesses, they were shouting that Hakym should prostrate before them and settle them, according to his PA Hakym was so shocked and angry that he couldn't say a word. His PA named Olamuss who tried to calm the angry touts was given a sound slap. This caused an uproar and the touts started threatening to beat everybody up and destroy the studio. Fortunately, the noise attracted Hakym's mobile police who was sitting in the car at the car park parked behind the studio,  he rushed in with his gun threatening to shoot. But the area boys managed to escape except for one that was caught.

The producer, Micon later told us that Hakym was so scared that he refused to finish the session. The poor boy just ran into his car in fear and asked the driver to zoom off leaving his mobile police to tend to the caught suspect who is presently in police custody. Lol The Lamba king is scared!

BEHOLD THE N50 BILLION YACHT..... CHECKOUT THE VISUALS BELOW

With a repertoire to rival the most outlandish Saudi and Russian mega-yachts, the Nirvana is causing a bidding war among billionaire sailors as they battle to snap up the $200 million (N49,463,088,884) sea city. 

Only a handful of yachts have been priced more than the one-year-old vessel - making it one of the most luxurious floating mansions on the planet.

Built by South African construction gurus Oceanco and designed by Australian Sam Sorgiovanni, the 88.5 metre-long yacht has a remarkable pedigree history.

A spokesman for Edmiston, who are marketing the yacht, said: Nirvana is without question one of a handful of elite world cruising yachts around today - and it is certainly the most impressive and opulent yacht currently on sale. Every inch of the ship has been painstakingly designed and built. There really is little else like it.

There, of course, has been a lot of interest in the listing but as of yet no sale has been agreed.

The silver engraved elevator services all decks and leads guests up to the owners deck which can be transformed into a secluded on-board retreat.

The owners stateroom dominates over half of the upper deck, with a private sunbathing area with Jacuzzi forward, salon with terraces over the sea and a covered dining area.

Exterior stairs on the above deck lead to the bridge deck and the enormous and superbly equipped gymnasium and spa.

Femi Kuti’s Ex; Funke Kuti Is A Real Housewife

The entertainment industry has been buzzing since rumors began circulating that The Real Housewives franchise is coming to Lagos--this would make Lagos the first African city to be featured.  There has been a lot of speculations about which high society ladies will be featured be on the show.

There is no way of confirming these rumours not much is known about the producers of this show.  It's only natural that a show of this sort would generate as much excitement as it has.  

The latest name to drop on the list of stars for the show is that of Femi Kuti's ex-wife the beautiful and amazing Funke Kuti.

Kenya Moore

I know that these women are certain to officially put Lagos on the global map.  It would be very entertaining to peek into their daily activities, their lavish life styles, watch them at their soirees, get their latest gist, gossip and see how their amazing personalities mix or don't mix on reality television.  

The lives of affluent, bourgeois housewives and professional women would be 100% entertaining especially when the women in question are Nigerian women. In fact the show may even be bigger than the Atlanta version.

It’s no longer news that Kenya Moore, former Miss USA and  star of the Real Housewives Of Atlanta was in Nigeria last month for Dbanj’s DKM concert. We have reasons to believe that she might have met with some of the prospective cast members of the Real Housewives of Lagos like Caroline Danjuma, Shade Okoya and Funke Kuti during her visit to Nigeria.  Sources say that Kenya Moore’s production company is the producer of Real Housewives of Lagos.
