The last photo of Dr. Myles Munroe taken before the jet crashed, killing all nine onboard

The leader of Bahamas Faith Ministries, Dr Myles Munroe, and his wife Ruth have been killed in a plane crash in Grand Bahama.

According to the Bahamas Tribune, the crash took place Sunday afternoon and killed all nine people on board the private jet. The plane reportedly struck a crane at the Grand Bahama Ship Yard, exploding on impact and crashing into the ground near a junkyard area.

The Department of Civil Aviation reported that the plane was a Lear 36 executive jet which departed
the Lynden Pindling International Airport (LPIA) for the Grand Bahama International Airport. The plane left LPIA at 4.07pm with nine people on board and crashed while making an approach for landing at Grand Bahama International Airport at 5.10pm, the Department of Civil Aviation said.

A police source on the island previously said two were feared dead. However, police sources later confirmed that all those on board had been killed. The group was heading to a conference hosted by Pastor Munroe - the Global Leadership Forum. The identities of the other people on board have not yet been confirmed. The statement said while the department was advised of fatalities, it was awaiting confirmation from police on if there were any survivors.

Italian model Claudia Romani is venturing into a new career path in the world of football - after passing an exam in order to become a professional referee.
The 32-year-old has hung up her heels to become a referee, something which has been high on her agenda for a number of months.
Romani is now qualified to referee fixtures in both Serie A and Serie B - something which she is understandably delighted about.



She said: ‘Running around on the pitch with all those players and calling the shots is just an irresistible opportunity.'
No female referee has taken charge of a Serie A game as yet due to the amount of experience it commands.
That could soon change in the future, however, as Romani looks to take the Italian league by storm.

Y'all remember that chic that did everything Tonto Dikeh (including getting the massive mermaid tattoo on her back, lol) did back in the day because she thought they look alike? Yea, don't expect you to remember, but with Tonto Dikeh not doing any crazy stuff of late, Princess Pemu has taken it upon herself to get a bit of attention for herself in the ways she can!!! Posting crazy pics on instagram, gents - I know its attention whoring at its peak but will the shots below grab your attention? or the sister is just wasting her time?

Afro-pop music star Ayo ‘Wizkid’ Balogun is one of the headliners for Hennessy Artistry this year. In this chat with FUNSHO AROGUNDADE, the EME/StarBoy artiste shares his experience working with 2Face Idibia as co-headliners of the artistry, the review of his sophomore album AYO and how he has been spending his earnings

How has it been working as one of the Hennessy Artistry headliners this year?
I feel really blessed to be part of Hennessy Artistry this year. I am happy to be associated with the brand and I thank God for the opportunity to work with 2Face Idibia. He has been like a legend in the Nigerian music industry. He is one of the pioneers who paved the way for young artistes like me. So, it is a great feeling working with such individual. This will be the first time we actually got into the studio to finish a track. I really feel blessed. Thanks to Hennessy.
How have been able to build the Wizkid brand to such a popular one?
It looks like it has taken me all my life to build this brand. Before I went into making music, I already had what I wanted to be in my head. I was conscious of what I wanted to be and definitely knew I wanted to build a brand. In my journey in this music industry, I had wanted people to know the brand, not my name or my music and I try to stay out of trouble and sometimes avoid things happening. So, I am working on my brand and I want to take it to the global level.
In what way are you working to sustain the brand?
The truth is that I worry about sustainability of the brand and that’s why I work endlessly every day and night to make sure the brand Wizkid is here, even when I am no longer here. When I finally leave this world, I want to leave a legacy that people will follow. I am also building the Star Boy brand to help young artistes and producers. I want to create a platform for other talented people to grow creatively and push out their music. Star Boy is about a year old now, and our boys are getting constant airplay and nominations at various award platforms in Nigeria and abroad. So it is a great a feeling and I am liking it.
You have written a lot of hit songs. Which one would you consider the most challenging song ever written?
I would say ‘Jaiye Jaiye’. This is because when I wrote the song, I was a bit worried about whether people would accept the song. And that song is really special to me. So when I called Femi Kuti and I told him about the song, I wasn’t expecting his instant acceptance. When he said ‘yes’ to my request immediately, I was shocked and happy. The following day, we entered studio immediately and started to work on the song and I happy that I didn’t disappoint him.
Most people are usually afraid of breaking the sophomore jinx and you have just released your second album. What has been the response of music fans to the album?
The acceptance of my new album Ayo (Joy) has been awesome. Every day, people love the album and discover new tracks from the album. Before the release, I had already put out most of the songs as singles. Songs like Ojuelegba, In My Bed, Show Me The Money among others are already hit with people. It feels really good. When I was putting together the album, I tried to make a conscious decision not to change my style of music too much. I think people are already having this thing in their heads that because I am working with some international artistes, I might try to change my style of music or what I would sound like. But that is not true. I can never change my style of music for anyone.
Many critics have praised you for the track One Question. How did you come up with such heavy highlife track?
As I have said, I work endlessly to make sure that the Wizkid brand gets the needed respect. A lot of people would be thinking Wizkid is all about making party music but I have actually decided to do good music. I’m not to just make music for now, but do something that people can listen to years to come. I want to pass a message across to a wider audience. That is what I did with the track, Joy. I was talking about my life and using it to inspire others. The same thing I did with Jaiye Jaiye and Ojuelegba. So, songs like that and One Question prove to you that I am no longer an average artiste. I am very confident of the music that I make now. And by God’s grace, I will definitely make things happen and take my music to global audience.
Why did you shoot the video of Show Me The Money in Surulere?
I decided to shoot the Show Me The Money video in sh*tta, also known as Small London, in Surulere because that’s where I grew up. I have paid my dues and there are so many stories to tell. I used to perform at all the carnivals in Surulere every December for free, including Lawanson to Brown Road. That is my hood where I was raised. So I have to pay my dues.
What’s happening between you and Skales as we have not heard of any collaboration between the two of you?
Of course, I will work with Skales. He was in my house some weeks ago and he brought a track. Definitely, I am going to work with him.
How did you come about the name Star Boy?
The streets gave me the name. It’s my people that started calling me that name and it stuck.
How would you react to those complaining that you like to show off your wealth on the social media?
Haa, show off kee? But let’s be honest, I didn’t have any of these good things before now. So, I have to show them off to motivate people and also to thank God for blessing me with all the wealth to acquire those things.
What about those who say you are arrogant and act like a terrible person?
Well, everyone is entitled to his or her opinion. And you should also check those who claim I am a terrible person. I am not and my people know that.  Whatever any one feels,  he should not blame me for it. Everyone cannot like you; same as everyone cannot hate you. I am just being me and also being a good person. Fame has not changed me; it only added some accessories to my collections. People say I am arrogant and it does not bother me because I still show my fans love and they do same in return.
Where are you investing all the millions you are making now?
I invest heavily in properties and jewellery. I spend more on gold. I have heard some people say they are vanities but I tell you, they are very good investment

Few weeks back, Gistmania was agog of a certain female celebrity (I wont do any name calling) splashing $20K on renting a cruise boat for 2 nights in dubai and quite alot of very personal and intimate photos spreading everywhere - the thought that came to me is! Who is taking these photos? Unlike the American celebrities that are regularly harassed by paparazzi and spy drones taking very personal and intimate photos, I wonder who take photos of these Nigerian celebs, do they pay someone just to follow them and take these photos? Or? what is the inspiration behind it all? seriously! I thought living your life was enough work on its own but getting another person to follow you around to take photos?

Nigerian music legend King Sunny Ade, KSA, has many wives...some say they are more than seven, but these are the officials ones...and they all have children for him. He said recently that he doesn't even know how many children he has but has decided to stop having them

I notice that these days couples tend to take their time on issues of dating and marriage, some people live together and to be honest do almost everything as a married couple will do - just to test their compatibility and so on, I think this method helps a lot, because it allows people to understand themselves alot better and at a level they would have never known before now - However, does this guarantee a happier marriage? I know people will change and adjust during the period of learning about each other, but ultimately after marriage dont people just go back to being their former (real) selves and forget about all the sacrifices made before?
I will like to know your views on this subject

A female student of the University of Abuja, identified simply as Afoke and pictured above, lost her life two hours ago after she was hit by a car in front of the permanent site along Airport road. According to eyewitness reports, the accident was as a result of the hit and run car being on high speed and lack of speed bumps in front of the campus. Afoke had died on the spot and right now, barely 10 hours after her last tweet on earth, her remains are in a mortuary. Her project defence was even today.

We are here one minute, the next we are gone! May her soul rest in perfect peace.

Wave making Nigerian producer, Don Jazzy, has called on aspiring producers to be very prayerful and hardworking if they truly wants to make it as good producer.

Don Jazzy gave the hint during a brief interview at the newly built Akwa Ibom stadium, monitored by Naijapals.com, where he and his crew are scheduled to perform alongside Limpopo crooner, Kcee.

The producer explained it took him time before he was able to make it this, urging other producers to be real rather than trying to be like some other people.

Speaking about his crew, the producer explained that he did not meet them in a day and in a bid to make Mavin records a strong label, he needed a female touch and he had to call on Tiwa Savage who gladly oblige.

He revealed that aside Dr.SID, and D’Prince, who were with him from the defunct Mo’Hits, the rest of the crew were either introduced to him or he met them through the internet.

Reports reaching our desk says that two people are feared dead while 20 others suffered various degrees of injuries during a stampede at the just concluded inauguration ceremony of the new international stadium in Akwa Ibom state. Details later

Just check out their swag. #DoroBaddest! Nigeria’s foremost producer Don Jazzy and his Marvin Records crew this evening thrilled guests with an energetic performance at the ongoing launching of Akwa Ibom International Stadium in Uyo, Akwa Ibom.
