Edris, Cause Trouble


Just when everyone was thinking the former Hip hop Rap artist Edris Abdulkarim who is just coming up again in the music industry is rebranded, he struck again.

Coming out under the Kennis Music record label, Edris was seen at his best yesterday trying to fight a man at the premises of the Lagos State Television, Agidingbi, Ikeja, Lagos.

It took the intervention of a lady who works at Lagos Television to restrain him.

Only God knows what would have happened if the lady was not there because Edris was visibly angry and could have beaten up the man who claims not to know him at the gate of the premises of LTV.

It could be recalled that this same artist had a confrontation with 50 CENT, a top American Rap artist when he visitd Nigeria for a show.

A word of advise for Edris, even if you want to really show off your muscles, please choose a better location than a media house.

A synergy has risen between Mr. Ope Banwo[]s Stingomania Records and renowned movie maker Lancelot Odua Imasuen, to reenact the life and times of the late rapper in the movie which will be entitled, Ghetto Dreams, a replay of his song of the name.

Shock As UK Based Black Nigerian Couple Get White Baby

MEDICAL experts were shocked Tuesday by the news that a black Nigerian couple had given birth to a white blue-eyed blonde.

British-Nigerian Nmachi Ihegboro has amazed genetics experts who say the little girl is not an albino.

Blue-eyed blonde Nmachi, whose name means "Beauty of God" in the Nigerian couple[]s homeland, has baffled genetics experts because neither Ben nor wife Angela have any mixed-race family history.

Pale genes skipping generations before cropping up again could have explained the baby[]s appearance.

Doctors at Queen Mary[]s Hospital in Sidcup - where Angela, from nearby Woolwich, gave birth - have told the parents Nmachi is definitely no albino.

Ben, who came to Britain with his wife five years ago and works for South Eastern Trains, said: "She doesn[]t look like an albino child anyway - not like the ones I[]ve seen back in Nigeria or in books. She just looks like a healthy white baby."

Prof Bryan Sykes, head of Human Genetics at Oxford University and Britain[]s leading expert, yesterday called the birth "extraordinary".

Prof Sykes said both parents would have needed "some form of white ancestry" for a pale version of their genes to be passed on.

The expert said some unknown mutation was the most likely explanation.

The amazing birth comes five years after Kylie Hodgson became mum to twin daughters - one white and the other black - in Nottingham.

Kylie, now 23, and her partner Remi Horder, now 21, are both mixed race.

Even so the odds were estimated at a million to one.

NFF To Decide On Lagerback
