Toni-Okoroji-and-Onyeka-Onwuenu
The controversial rift between COSON chairman, Tony Okoroji and veteran singer Onyeka Onwenu attained a new peak today as Onwenu was mandated by a Lagos a High court to publicly apologize to the COSON boss and pay five million Naira in damages.
A Lagos High Court sitting in Ikeja today Thursday, June 30, 2016 ordered Onyeka Onwenu to pay the sum of five million naira as damages for defamation of character to Chief Tony Okoroji, former President of PMAN and Chairman, Copyright Society of Nigeria (COSON).
Delivering judgment in Suit No: ID/935/12 filed in 2012, Hon Justice I. O. Akinkugbe (Mrs.) also ordered Ms. Onwenu to tender an unreserved public apology to Chief Okoroji to be published in Vanguard Newspapers and www.vanguardngr.com, the website of Vanguard Newspapers.
The war between Okoroji and Onyeka can be traced back to 2011 when Okoroji went to court to challenge the publication of an article in the Vanguard newspaper edition of October 14, 2011 which he considered a deliberate attempt to malign or defame him.
According to the COSON chair, the article claiming he diverted N3m donated by the Cross Rivers State Government towards the final burial of Christy Essien Igbokwe, is ‘unjustified, unwarranted, malicious, wicked, reckless and libellous.’

The case was thrown out by a Lagos State High Court. At the time, the presiding judge, Justice I.O. Kasali opined: ‘For words to be defamatory of a party, the said words must have lowered that party in the estimation of right-thinking members of the public and there must be evidence of this from a person whose views of that person have been so adversely affected’.

YVONNE-JEGEDE-2-650x400

Nollywood actress Yvonne Jegede, in a recent Instagram post, talked about a beauty pageant organizer in Delta State who tried to impose a candidate on her after calling her to be the chief judge of the pageant.

According to the busty actress, she was contacted to be the Chief Judge of Miss Delta Constituency Beauty Pageant but while the event was in progress, she was instructed to crown a certain contestant the winner despite her performance at the event.

She wrote, “I was called to be the chief judge at the Miss Delta Constituency Beauty Pageant that took place on the 24th June in Delta State and while I sat at the table with my fellow judges accessing the contestants making sure we pick who deserves to be queen, the organizer comes to our table to tell us who should win, who his candidate was.

The entire judges went angry including myself, wondering why you called us to waste our time if you already knew who the winner was. To be honest we stood our ground and picked the winner because, the obvious was stated, even the audience wanted the judges pick. Now the organizer IK is mad at me (chief judge) and refuses to buy my return ticket to Lagos and also refuses to pay my hotel bills the next morning. Lol.. Just an experience I thought I share. It is well with this country.”

Her allegation comes few weeks after winner of Miss Nollywood Nigeria Beauty Pageant blamed her sudden dethronement on her inability to yield to the sexual advances of the organizer.

Yeni-Kuti-with-her-fiancé-Theo-Lawson

Yeni Kuti, the first daughter of late Afrobeat legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti turned 55 last month and the ‘icing on her cake’ that day was a ring of commitment given to her by her long term lover and partner, Theo Lawson . In a recent interview with Encomium she spoke on life at 55, wedding plans and more.

When asked if she would be settling down any time soon, the event planner said, “Yes, we have already fixed a date”. On the exact day, Yeni who has been with her partner for nine years now said, “20 years from now. If we are still alive, we will send the IV out. Saturday, May 24, 2036, if we are alive. I am serious. We discussed it yesterday.”

Yeni had previously expressed her intention not to get married following her engagement. According her, the ring her partner gave her is a commitment ring.

Yeni Kuti stargist

She told The Entertainer in an exclusive interview, “Not at all. The ring my partner gave me is what they call ‘a commitment ring’. He gave me his mother’s wedding ring as a commitment to the relationship. We have been together for about nine years. When I met him, he used to wear the ring around his neck, so for me, it is a big deal.

He has entrusted me with something very close to his heart. It is not like we are going to start doing wedding and all that, even though we are really committed to each other. I call him ‘my last bus stop’. If God gives us long life and says there should be another man in my life, he is the man for me and I believe I am the woman for him as well.

When he made the proposal, we didn’t know that it was going to go viral.”

Yeni Kuti was formerly married to late Femi Segun, who died from a power bike accident on March 21, 2014.

The marriage had produced a daughter named Rolari.

The creative in me wanted some shine and I had to answer.
