Aaaaaaaarrrrrgh! I need real gist on this blog. I'm sick of all these inane news.

Now let the insults flow *middle finger*

Ms E said...

Funny thing that out of all the Nigerian Verified accounts besides D'Banj, none has up to 40000 followers

ranminise said...

Proud of him. But my advice to him is he needs to Keep a leveled head and try to be humble.He is extremely arrogant.

He should try. Congrats

WOW! I have waited for this moment for so long. Dapo is an amazing person, entertainer and ambassador for our country and continent. As Nigerians, we are hardly recognised and I have always hated this fact. D'banj, I am so proud of you and wish you the best. More grease to your elbows, baby!!! May God complete this good work He has started in you. WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!! Especially with all the recent controversy you have faced, I feel this is well deserved and a huge step in the right direction. I pray this shall be a point of contact for our other ambassadors, who will soon start getting worldwide recognition. AMEN

How does dat make her a mumu? I am 24 yrs old and I don't know dem too. Maybe cos I dont live in naija and I have not bin home in15yrs.

Fatimah said...

Being verified on twitter simply means having your twitter account authenticated. It's not for everybody, it's mainly for celebs, high profile persons etc. The idea is that if you get your account verified, nobody would be able to impersonate you on twitter.

@Sanito, you don't know Asa, Nneka and Oluchi? oh dear... truly you are not a mumu but you are very ignorant wrt your country and that in some cases is worse than being a mumu. No insults intended#Truthhurts.

Anonymous said...

U don't need to be insultive when others post issues that interest them.

Anonymous said...

why insult a person who simply says she doesn't know asa why?

tejumola said...

even if u no sabi asa,nneka, oluchi etc ,even if u dont have intrest in 'em or smthing,just chill and stop displaying ur ignorance. but am sure u know pussycat dolls...una go just siddon there they form wetin i no know. by the way where in this part of the world do live?
mars ,jupita or venus lol,u come dey form not knowing...all na beef .

Anonymous said...

So guys Ђơ̴̴̴̴̴̴͡ω much hv U̶̲̥̅̊ been paid so far knowing dis celebs# notin i guess mtschew

Sanito said...

Ok really and truly that was uncalled for... Y the insults? I have no idea who they are, really and i dont see how that makes me ignorant about my country biko.
Like someone pointed out the so called people dont even have as much followers as other celebs do so clearly they are not that famous.
Mtcheww! Over Sabi Nigerians.
Linda post mt comment oo pls.

Sanito said...

@Tejumola... Im not beefing anybody oo. Kai All i said is I do not know them. aah haba? Y wont i know the pussy cat dolls ehn? That Im In America means Im forming kwa? for who? People that have no idea i exist? Y? Mr know everydamn person i see u o. Mtcheww.

Anonymous said...

sanito, ok, i'm sorry you're not a mumu, erm....you're ignorant, big time and its a darn shame. Asa and Nneka are both one of Nigeria's top female musicians, with alot of accolades to show. You should google them and listen to their music. They've both been featured on BET. As for Oluchi Orlandi where do i start from? she's a super model repping Africa not just nigeria. she's was the first black model to be featured on vogue or so (one of dem big magazines), she won the first ever Mnet Face of africa...she's a very big deal and has modelled for countless designers, name them from Gucci to versace...pls be in touch with ur country and know wats happening #okbye

just saying said...

His stylist is tola odulami also known as rolling dollar, if Dbanj fires him it will affect a lot of people dat benefit from him oh, and he might have to make his gay prostituting full time instead of part time as he does now.

Onyema Patrick said...

Naija diasporans and their mumu formings....how can you say you dont know oluchi, Nneka and Asa and yet you claim to be living abroad. You think say dem be local champs, u wan begin tell us as u neva take reach naija for 15yrs like that is some enviable feat, by the way none of of those ladies live in Naija and yet with our limited access to cable TV and all that media obsession abroad a lot of us here in Naija still knows them very well. If you claim to live abroad and well grounded in entertainment and fashion, then you will be worse than a slowpoke if you don't know oluchi at least.....wetin u wan form sef..lol

@Fatima thank you but what about all the rats and cockroaches saying follow me on twitter? Are they not verified? So it's like profiles with levels? So majority of people shouting they are on twitter does it mean they are not verified and why then can they use it a say they are on twitter? Mehn that's why I never liked it on bit I don't know why ,I am sick and tired of it with the way people always sing with it like follow me follow me lol,well thanks,so majority on twitter are not verified so what's the use of saying they are on twitter?abeg lecture me more thank you

Sanito no mind them. They shld ask dangote if he knows Nneka.he probly won't and its nt cos he's formn.he may not even know pussycat dolls.' Its not called display of ignorance.' Its nt about forming. If u don't live in naija u'll hardly know these people too. And sometins bother on interest. Ull probly not know the gospel artistes I know and I won't call u a mumu.so u stop showing ur lack of home training by cursing, sanito and I would rather be ignorant than be as loose-mouthed as some of u. :)

Anonymous said...

I knew oluchi on dis blog. I no Asa I dnt no d rest.

Jaja said...

Your whole intention of sayin you don't know them was to beef them and put them down like they are not worthy of being recognized despite their achievements, so if people say you are ignorant you should accept it like that. Next time, just google them and keep your mouth shut!!!

babeontop said...

I dey wonder too/?????? I don't care for Twitter much...

babeontop said...

I don't know them either and I am in my late 30's...and in the US.

babeontop said...

God, you guys are so annoying...you know them cos you live in naija, we don't cos we don't live in Naija. Is that a crime and how is the big deal?....the jealousy speaks volumes...what a complex.

@sanito, dnt mind dem, nigerians and their bad habits, dey wud crucify u for err little thing, yet dey feel dey r educated,its beyond reading nd writng,having manners won't kill, well knowledge is power, so @sanito try nd follow up on naija celebs once in a while,u prolly very busy.

Ndi aguu. So many of you who think others are ignorant are the ignorant people. Is it better they claim to know cos of public eyes. I'm sure all you I too knows always move with the pressure of the society.

Now if we ask you governor of your state you wont know o. In fact please ask them a question about the country you are living in and see how they fail

Anonymous said...

So if person no knw Asa, Oluchi and Nneka the person is a mumu hunn? you are the greatest mumu that i have ever seen must he/she knw them? rubbish.

Mimi said...

Na wa for u pple o, must all nigerians abroad know Oluchi and Nneka (cos I dont know them), I think it is rather uncalled for to say cos u dont know them, then u are a mumu. I can assure u that less than 2 perc of nigerians abroad know those names.

Choochoo said...

Nah by force to know ASA? nonsense!!! How can you insult someone because they dont know an artiste? The height of "mumuism"!

If you ask these same people who their local govt chairman is now,they wont know anything, nah to shout because someone doesnt know Asa, eeediots!

Twitter needs to verify many more of our high profile people, those located on the continent ,not just those living abroad.....They are cautious about it understandably, but it will happen. Besides social media is fleeting, twitter today, something else tomorrow, so its all a silly business anyways.

Naijas are so stupid .....why insult someone because the first comment because he/she doesnt know a Nigerian celebrity . Are they putting food on my table that i must by force know them or someone is a mumu . That comment is so stupid.

I dont know who Asa is and frankly i dont care who he/she is, I didnt even knw Dbanj until almost a year after he came out. if you think i am a mumu then you are a bigger fool . There are so many other more intelligent things i know about that your half brain does not have a clue (that goes to all those who called the 7:49 comment a mumu).

Naijas are so full of shit i tell u . they can form to know it all

Anonymous said...

oh shut up idiots. i dont know nneka either. i know asa exists but i have never listened to anything of hers, even by mistake. it's not happened. because u know them, we should too? do they know u? they aint that famous, if not we would ve known them. do we argue about beyonce? i know oluchi, i have never heard of nneka, who is she???? Is she an actress??

Unknown said...

Abeg they should verify Linda Ikeji jare, afterall seriously u have fast turned into a hosehold name...especially if you are a lady, or an amebo guy.lol

OKPOTOKPO TCHIDI said...

IF YOU SAY YOU DONT KNOW ASA, OLUCHI AND NNEKA, THEN YOU ARE AN IGNORAMUS!!! THEY ARE EVEN MORE POPULAR ABROAD THAN IN NIGERIA : FOR THOSE OF U WHO CLAIM NOT TO BE IN NAIJA

GbemmieS said...

Well I don't think not knowing Asa and Nneka should be an issue, Oluchi to some extent is a Genaral knowledge (First Nigerian, African to win miss World pageant), which of course its something a Nigerian esp in Diaspora should know and be proud of.
There shouldn't be need for insults, You enlighten or ignore......some people still haven't heard of Jesus Christ (thank God, mission fields nd missionaries are increasing daily), how much far less Asa, Nneka, and Oluchi.

I just read the interview of JJC and was wondering why they are trying so hard to vilify D'Banj. They should all please leave the young man alone. Ah ah na crime to become big and dream big? KK

If you like Linda no post this comment, I am coming for you.

Anonymous said...

Some people don't know Adele, chipmunk,and some other int'l artistes that are even more famous that Asa but I don't consider them mumus or see it as them forming.

@ gbemsie dear- I think u r mixing Oluchi and agbani. Oluchi won face of Africa and Agbani won miss world.

******Agbani Darego in ma previous comment pls****** Oluchi is a World class superModel, doing Africa and not just Nigeria proud.

I'M SO IRRITATED BY SOME PEOPLE'S MINDSET said...

my brother is a geek, i doubt that he knows d'banj sef but i can bet u he knows far more than u do on very important matters esp technology and IT. be there knowing d'banj, asa, neka, oluchi o. clap for urself o. we r proud of u for knowing them nwam. u r the great. i hope sometime in d future people would be called 'MUMU' for NOT knowing you or just remain where u are as a non-mumu for knowing ariste . NOAH's ARK

Anonymous said...

Oluchi is a model and i dont take it away from her but abeg no be by force to know her. I have never seen oluchi in any magazine in london , hardly seen her on television . Maybe she is knwn in Newyork but not london..... So do u really think she is that visible self as a model , Nigerians know her because she is a nigerian .

There are many of Oluchi contemporaries in terms of Models that you dont knw of them, blc they are not nigerian yet they are known in their country . Oluchi is good but a lot of people who are not into fashion wont know her or see her work. The same goes for ASA. i have never heard her work

If you think i am a mumu then what a low brain that person is

People should watch that mouth before they open it and yarn nonsence....HISS Insulting others for nothing

NOW THEY ARE BEEFING THE PERSON THAT HASNT COME BACK IN YEARS. ' THE SAME WAY U HAVE NEVER TRAVELLED OUGT SINCE U WERE BORN IS THE SAME WAY SHE HAS NEVER TRAVELLED "IN".SO STOP BEEFING.

Politicians, celebs and other popular people/ bodies verify their accounts on twitter to prevent people from impersonating them. It's beneficial to them but mostly to the fans because it helps you know which account to follow and which might be fake.
E.g I decided to follow rita dominic on twitter a while ago, but there were like 5 @ritadominic accounts and because non was verified I didn't know which was really rita's account and which one probably belongs to some wierd person who wants to use her name to get followers, so I boned. If her account was verified, I'd be following her now.

Fatimah said...

It is not compulsory to have ur acct verified. If u r popular or high profile, u need to have ur acct verified so as to eliminate people impersonating you and probably duping other pple using twitter. That's d significance of d blue icon. Once u see it, u know dis is the original acct of dbanj so no one on twitter can claim to b dbanj.

Dear Anonymous,its actually not by force to know any nigerian celebs!how much do they earn??you are actually the mumu in this case!what you should have done was to tell her who they are and stop attracting unnecessary attention to yourself!!oya as mouth piece of asa and oluchi,and the mad one,how much have you earned from them for insulting someone on their behalf??or has knowing them affected the price of fish in the market??iwu idiot,Amadioha is watching you from a BROKEN MIRROR!

The sage said...

Lol. Its not a complex, we r all just complex human beings. Am torn between both arguement reli. It is being sensed dat ur not knowing asa and d rest belittles them, while ur trying to put it in our face that u stay abroad. And for those in nigeria who still don't know them simply shows a deplorable lack of awarenes of wot goes on around them. U may not know all, but don't tell me u know non of them, especially if ur reli interested in wot goes on in d country beyond gossips. Am sure y'all know kim k, asa is more talented and more respected than her. Show more than a passing interest in wot goes on in ur country...else just stay away.

Anonymous said...

Too many mannerless pple on dis blog...quick to insult! As for d fellas dt havnt bin to Naija in years u guys havnt missed out on nyfin! so cuz som1 doesn't knw Asa n co d person is a mumu n is ignorant? #Godiswatching#
