AsakeOge says Timeless Heritage is a tribute to the matriarchs in her family. The talented designer points to the fact that her grandmother passed on a fashion legacy to my mother and her sisters and this was passed on to her. Each dress has been named after these seven women.

She has have drawn inspiration from nature, a tropical paradise setting with a colour palette of Red, Blue and Yellow; Yellow for the sun, Blue for the skies and ocean and Red for the sunset, flowers and passion. Staying true to the Asakeoge ethos of using bold bright colours, these pieces are the core of a 30 piece collection which will continued with the autumn winter collection.

The timelessness is conceived in the use of luxurious French Silk, French Cotton and Silk Jersey made into garments with classic silhouettes that would stand the test of time. Less is more as the bright colours, soft flowing fabrics and bright prints speak for themselves.

With pieces ranging from evening wear, bridal, red carpet to day wear, there’s something for every woman. You are not afraid to standout because the Asakeoge woman is a trendsetter not a fashion follower.

The Don Jazzy’s Enigma winner and producer of the BET naija rap cypher is on to something new!

Of recent, the name IBK has been on the lips of many–from radio jingles, exclusive interviews to special features. The renowned producer, singer/songwriter and vocal instructor is well known for his vocal arrangements and gritty production skills.

His music is hard to label style wise, it is a mix of genres : Gospel, jazz, neo-soul, hiphop and even RnB. There are many WORDS we can classify IBK with – different, unusual, ‘out-er-the-box’ – but he’d rather call himself spaceshipboi; believing he has been sent to add value to the world he currently finds himself in (earth).

Earlier in the month, he shot the video for “I HAVE A DREAM,” a track off of his upcoming “I COME IN PEACE” album. IBK tells the story of the record I HAVE A DREAM via this visual movie type presentation directed by a great video director BRIAN NU KID. The MARTIANSHIP team has decided to whet the appetite of the public with this sneak peek into what is currently been brewed in the lab. Tell a friend, “there is an alien in town and he looks just like you”

Here’s the video trailer: I Have A Dream

CAUGHT: A man was found stuck in between the legs of another man's wife in Kenya

African witchdoctors can do wonders. This man was caught in Nairobi, Kenya having sex with someone’s wife in a guest house. Even the police could not rescue him from the black magic that left him stuck between the legs of another man’s wife. You really have to see this believe it. Unbelievable!

He recently released one of the dopest mixtapes in the music industry, Illegal Music II. Mr. Incredible a.k.a M.I Abaga is back again with a music video for one of his singles from his last album M.I2. Some say the song is targeted to the popular musician Kelly Hansome, while others think it’s targeted at another Nigerian rapper, Iceberg Slim.

Where is Zara Gretti and why has she been so quiet? Hello! Have no fear, Zara Gretti is here! The independent act Mz. Gretti has been working gradually and quietly at her own pace.

The video for the internet-released single “TENO” was shot in April, 2012 over two days in Maryland, USA. The visual direction was a collaborative effort by the amazing pair Champion Studios and P.K Design to bring Margaret-Mary Joseph aka Zara Gretti’s vision to life. The super duper glam squad Nkechi Nchaos, Cheryl Ukegbu (Amaka Consultants), Beatrice Travers-Brown, and Immah Bundu worked seamlessly to bring the styling vision to life with contributions from other young talented Africans in the DMV area – Akeyno accessories, Aral Amore, Lucci Zera and Shako’Ju clothing. ToluMide, Ogee’s Place, Duncan Daniels, Nollege Wisdumb, Benny Bekro and more friends showed to support and eat plenty rice and meat… hehehe!

Below are some behind the scenes pictures along with a video footage. Check it out and tell us what you think!

ZARA GRETTI- “TENO” BEHIND THE SCENES

THE Boko Haram sect on Thursday claimed responsibility for the attacks on ThisDay offices in Abuja and Kaduna. The sect, while claiming responsibility for Thursday’s attacks, said more bombings were coming the way of the media. The Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad, popularly known as Boko Haram told an online medium Premium Times that it attacked

THE Boko Haram sect on Thursday claimed responsibility for the attacks on ThisDay offices in Abuja and Kaduna. The sect, while claiming responsibility for Thursday’s attacks, said more bombings were coming the way of the media. The Jama’atu Ahlis Sunna Lidda’awati Wal-Jihad, popularly known as Boko Haram told an online medium Premium Times that it attacked

ThisDay to send a strong message to the media that it would no longer condone reports misrepresenting it in the press, or blaming it for acts it knew nothing about.

CLAIM: Boko haram has claimed responsibility for yesterday's bombings of THISDAY newspaper offices

Abul Qaqa, spokesperson for the sect, told Premium Times in an exclusive interview that his organisation was fed up with the deliberate misinformation being peddled about it in the Nigerian and foreign media.

“We have repeatedly cautioned reporters and media houses to be professional and objective in their reports. This is a war between us and the government of Nigeria; unfortunately, the media have not been objective and fair in their report of the ongoing war, they chose to take side,” Qaqa said.

He identified three instances where he claimed his group was deliberately misrepresented by the media. The first, according to him, was the rumour of his capture by the Nigerian intelligence agencies.

“Some reporters are aware that I am Abul Qaqa, they know my voice through our long interactions and they also know the role of Abu Darda who heads the enlightenment committee and sometimes facilitates interviews; yet they (media) go by the unsubstantiated view of government that Abul Qaqa is in custody and I am the new spokesman or number two,” he said.

The second misrepresentation, according to Qaqa, was the reporting on the kidnappings of foreigners in the northern part of Nigeria.

The third example, Qaqa said, was the mis-translation of the video the group posted recently.

“Another example is the recent video posted on YouTube by our Imam. I challenge every Nigerian to watch that video again. There is no place our imam either said he will crush President Jonathan or issued an ultimatum to the government in Nigeria; but nearly all papers carried very wrong and mischievous headlines,” he said.

When asked why THISDAY appeared specifically chosen for the attack, Qaqa said THISDAY’s “sins” were more grievous.

“The sins of THISDAY are more,” he said, adding that “they once insulted Prophet Mohammed in 2001 and we have not forgotten. They recently said our Imam executed me which is false. Here I am speaking to you, I am alive and healthy.”

‘We’ll attack the media again’

The group’s spokesman further warned of more attacks on the media.

“We have just started this new campaign against the media and we will not stop here, we will hit the media hard since they have refused to listen to our plea for them to be fair in their reportage.

“In the coming days we will give details and instances where the media have not been fair to us and why we are going to attack them as well.

“The media in Nigeria are not a problem to us if they will do their job professionally without taking sides,” Qaqa said.
