The Price You Pay For Fame, YBNL’s First Lady Laments


YBNL‘s new bee and first lady is still getting use to her new status as a celebrity. While it seems Temmie Ovwasa needs to start taking some classes on how to handle fame, the newly signed has lamented that her private life has become less private after joining
Olamide ‘s YBNL record label.



The afro-pop and soft rock singer lamented; “ My biggest fear right now is, I wont have my privacy anymore and I’m the kind of person that likes to lock herself up and just…..but basically, I’m just gonna be like ‘oh my face is gonna be everywhere’’. It would be nice because, I’ve wanted the world to hear my voice…….but sometimes you just want to be alone like ‘leave me alone”.



Temmie’s Jabole which is her debut single under the record label has gained a lot of recognition while downloads and air play are on the rise.

“Go Back To Your Husband Immediately” – Nigerian Pastor Tells Tiwa Savage

Following the lingering marital crisis involving popular singer, Tiwa Savage and her husband, Tunji Balogun, a.k.a TeeBillz, lover boy “old school” singer-turned- pastor, Felix Aigbe Libarty has called out the couple to save themselves and the Nigerian music industry from further embarrassment by resolving their differences amicably.


Specifically, the “Ifeoma and 419” crooner, begged Tiwa Savage to return to her husband quietly despite the emotional pains she’s going through at the moment. He said:
TeeBillz is under serious attack from the pit of hell, and as such, Tiwa should not allow
the devil to use her husband to destroy her future.


Speaking further, he said:
“It’s one thing to be famous and it’s another to know how to manage fame. I want her (Tiwa Savage) to go back to her husband immediately because there is no divorce spiritually except when the man is no more. I want her to know that if God wants to announce any woman that is matured, He will always match her with a man. In this case, that is what God has done for her.”


“I want Tiwa Savage to begin to understand that whatever is happening to her now is an attack from the pit of hell. Her husband is in deep trouble. I am sure that his pastor has not been able to tell him that he’s under attack.

The devil may not attack you directly, it will attack your partner. Spiritually, as I am seeing it, her husband (TeeBillz) is under attack. Every behaviour her husband is exhibiting now is manipulated.

The Bible says, you have to be there for your husband, and your husband will be there for you. Whatever that is going on now, remains the fact that your husband is being manipulated by spiritual forces that doesn’t want you to grow. And by the time you walk out of your marriage, you are giving the devil the opportunity to destroy your life completely” he counselled.

The Signing of the 2016 Budget is Proof that the Executive and Legislature Can Work Together for the People – Saraki

The Senate President, Bukola Saraki said on Friday that the signing of the appropriation bill into law showed that the legislative and executive arms could come together to work for the electorate.

He said this in his remark at the signing of the N6.06 trillion appropriation bill into law by President Muhammadu Buhari.
“We have shown again that, despite the challenges, we can come together again and work as a government in the interest of the people that put us here. We should look at the good sides and more as we forge ahead. The most important part in the signing is the implementation, to ensure it is to the benefit of Nigerians who waited,” he said.
The Senate President added that the National Assembly would play its role to ensure that it flowed with the mood of the people and make sure that the budget would benefit the people. He reassured the President of the support of the National Assembly in ensuring that the policies of government were fully supported.
He described the budget signing as an important ceremony and that the National Assembly was happy to be part of it. He said the document had continued to maintain the thrust of ensuring that a minimum of 30 per cent went into capital projects and facilitate the President’s policy on diversification for less reliance on oil revenue.
The Senate President noted that during the year, the events around budgets had “been very bumpy” all over the world.
He said that around the globe, the legislation on appropriation is the most important legislation, and that in all democracies, there had always been issues on passing budgets, policies and equity.
“As such, we thank God that we have been able to come to today, and that has been a great achievement on the part of everybody. In other countries, even in the U.S. that we copied, sometimes they close the government because they have not been able to achieve it. So, it is a great satisfaction that we are here and there has been effort on both sides, the executive and the legislative to commend those who worked behind the scene to make today happen,” he said.
Speaking to President Buhari Saraki said, “Mr President, I think that a lot of officials and our officials lost some weight. Although it was not planned, but I think that it was a good thing as well as you, (President), have fitter officials here”.
Speaking with State House correspondents later, Saraki reiterated that the passing of the appropriation bill was usually the most difficult legislation.

Finally, Buhari signs 2016 budget

The president’s assent to the budget is coming weeks after horse-trading between the presidency and the national assembly.
In April, the national assembly transmitted details of the budget to the president after it had passed the bill on March 23.
But the president returned the document to the national assembly on the grounds that there were “grey areas” in it that needed to be sorted out.
The legislature then constituted a 10-man committee to smooth out the contours.
After a few weeks of legislative treatment, the final copy of the document was transmitted to the president on Thursday.
And, on Friday, he signed it into law.
In December, the budget proposal presented to a joint session of the national assembly by Buhari was N6.07trn. A total of N351bn was for statutory transfers, N2.8trn for recurrent expenditure and N1. 8trn for capital expenditure.

The legislature, based on the recommendation of its committees on appropriation, adopted $38 per barrel crude oil benchmark for the budget, as proposed by the federal government. It also adopted a foreign exchange rate of N197 per dollar as proposed by the government.
It, however, reduced the total budget sum from N6.07trn to N6.06trn: N351bn for statutory transfers, N1.4trn for debt service, N2.6trn for recurrent expenditure, and N1.5trn as capital expenditure.
