P-Square's publicist releases statement, says he never said it was all a publicity stunt

Yesterday P-Square's publicity Bayo Adetu was quoted as saying
the fight between the brothers was all a publicity stunt, and that
they all decided to play along. Well, after the backlash from fans,
Mr Adetu has backtracked and claims he never made those
comments. A statement he released below.
My attention has been drawn to one magazine interview
quoting me that the purported P-Square break-up tale was a
‘publicity stunt.’ It was indeed a misconception on the part
of the writer. I never said the rumour was a ‘publicity stunt.’
There is no way I could have granted an official interview
and speak in such denigrating manner as being portrayed by
the magazine in question.
I can remember talking to Star FM and NTA2, and it is on
record that I never spoke in such unprofessional manner!
Most importantly, I never said it was a ‘publicity stunt’
because that amounts to toying with the emotions of P-
Square fans. I cherish the fans more than Diamond and
therefore, I will never disrespect or toy with their emotions.
Thanks for your understanding.
Read the interview he supposedly granted to Icon magazine after
the cut...
Greetings, Bayo, we heard that the Okoye brotherS have finally
reconciled, can you give us an insight on what really happened?
After a long laugh… My brother, I’m telling you this as a friend,
there was no fight at all. The whole thing started after Jude
tweeted some days back and bloggers feasted on it and gave it
several interpretations which never existed, and that was how we
got here.
Are you saying there wasn’t a fight at all, how then did Peter and
Paul keep releasing comments through their Facebook accounts?
My guy, I can authoritatively tell you that neither of the P-Square
brothers, nor even Jude operate their Facebook accounts
anymore. Whatever Facebook posted was from an impersonator,
pretending to be anyone of them. P-Sqaure is active on twitter,
not on facebook, so you see, the whole thing was founded on lies.
If what you are saying is true, why did they all tweet a
reconciliatory tweet this morning indicating that they have
mended fences?
There’s one thing you should know, P-Square are not politicians,
neither are they businessmen to be worried about what one
useless blogger or the other has to say about them.
In this game, bad publicity is good publicity. When we read those
funny posts, we decided to play along with the general public and
what they were meant to believe.
Yesterday, Thursday, April 24, 2014 was Jude Okoye’s birthday
and he also used the opportunity to propose to his girlfriend while
we laughed at the stupidity of some Nigerian bloggers.
We later decided to further play into their hands by reaching a
consensus to tweet what they have termed the ‘reconciliation
tweet’.
However as a journalist, I am pained that trained journalists allow
themselves to be remoted by Linda Ikeji, a mere blogger without
any professional training to stall them from investigating serious
news material like this. These days, immediately Linda posts
anything on her blog, journalists just go there and copy and paste
the story without any checks and balances, it is outrightly wrong,
I’m really upset about this.
She called me after posting the story and I just decided to ignore
her calls, because I didn’t think we had anything more to say
when the milk has been split.
I have taken my time to explain to you this way because, you are
a friend and did not join the bandwagon.
As for those bloggers out there, I allowed them to write whatever
they like; after all, they are consuming their Internet data, not
mine

RIBADU WAS POISONED – OBASANJO

Erstwhile chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu was once poisoned in the
course of his duties as anti-corruption czar, former President
Olusegun Obasanjo has revealed.
Obasanjo, who spoke at an international forum on 3rd Tana High
Level Forum on Security in Africa in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia,
yesterday, also disclosed that Ribadu created enemies for him
because of the ruthlessness with which he carried out his
responsibilities of tackling corruption in Nigeria.
Obasanjo, who spoke from the floor following a presentation on
Illicit Financial Flow and Governance of Natural Resources made
by Ribadu, affirmed that he had known from experience that the
fight against corruption attracts a lot of enemies.
The former President declared that he has no fear of anyone still
living in Nigeria, adding “it is rather them that fear me.”
Saying that Ribadu took on a lot of highly connected persons in his
fight against corruption, Obasanjo said that the former anti-
corruption chief was once poisoned, causing a scare among
concerned quarters.
“It was a matter of life and death,” the former president said,
though further details of the incidence were not given.
Obasanjo said that once Ribadu was appointed, he gave him a free
hand and that Ribadu investigated him, his late wife and several
persons close to him at that time.

Luis Suarez named PFA Player of the Year

The Uruguayan frontman, who leads the top flight's scoring
charts with 30 goals, becomes only the second Liverpool
player in the Premier League era to win the award
Apr 27, 2014 11:53:00 PM
Liverpool striker and Premier League
top scorer Luis Suarez has been
named the PFA Player of the Year.
The Uruguay international has netted
30 league goals this season to lead
the division's scoring charts and fire
Liverpool towards what could be a first league title in 24 years.
With two games remaining this term, Suarez still has the chance to
equal, or even better, Cristiano Ronaldo and Alan Shearer's joint
record of 31 goals in a 38-game season.
In addition to his monumental goal haul, the former Ajax frontman
has registered 12 assists – the most in the Premier League.
Suarez's award cements an incredible turnaround in affection for the
27-year-old, who was booed on two occasions during last year's
PFA ceremony.
He began the campaign by serving the remainder of a 10-game
suspension for biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic, which followed a
race row involving Manchester United's Patrice Evra that also
produced a lengthy ban.
But Suarez has put past controversies firmly behind him to light up
English football and become only the second Liverpool player to be
crowned Player of the Year in the Premier League era.

Neymar- We are all monkeys

Barcelona attacker Neymar has vowed
to fight racist abuse after team-mate
Dani Alves had a banana thrown at
him during the 3-2 win over Villarreal
on Sunday.
The Brazilian full-back dealt with the
incident in good humour, picking up the banana and eating it, but his
compatriot took to Instagram to voice his disgust at the abuse.
"We are all equal, we are all monkeys, say no to racism," he wrote on
the social media site, accompanied with the hashtag
#weareallmonkeys.
"It's a shame that there's such prejudice in 2014. It's time for people
to raise their voices. My way of expressing my support is to do what
Dani Alves did.
"If you think so too, take a picture of yourself eating a banana and we
will use what they have against us to our advantage."
