a VIP “GEM” lounge for its existing high value
customers.

menu where customers can ask questions, try
out new apps and see how the latest mobile
devices can enhance their lives when paired with
the right applications.

zoning, the new experience centre at Adeola
Odeku is set to revolutionize the retail
environment in Nigeria.
"I appreciate NUPENG’s gesture but I will rename this edifice `Peace Hall`, in memory of the lives of the children that were brutally slain in Yobe by insurgents. The Children will soon be forgotten but as a reminder to us and the need to stand up for what is right, I ask that the hall be re-named as NUPENG’s Peace Hall, as we all search for peace across Nigeria. While we pray for the repose of the souls of these young ones, it is also a moment we must stand up as a nation. Whatever language you speak, whatever faith you practise, whatever ethnic/tribe you claim, this is the time it will not show. No matter how diverse we are, we are still one people, this is a time when colours and flag do not matter and political ideologies mean nothing. This is the time we must show and respect the values of the lives of fellow Nigerians’’ The governor said.
Which Nigerian actor would you not mind kissing on set?There are actually two of them; Ramsey Nuoah and John Dumelo. I’m so in love with both of them. Their movies hit the right spot.Right spot? They make you horny?Everything join together. [laughs]So you don’t mind a sex scene with Ramsey Nuoah?A sex scene with Ramsey? Mehn, we are doing it for real. No acting, we will do it.

This weekend ( Feb 28 - March 2nd). Lagos
Theatre Festival is here. Have you bought your
tickets? Four Plays, Fringe Shows and
Exhibitions. Freedom Park, Lagos Island.Queen of
the Night ( 3.15pm & 6.15pm)
There is a bar in Lagos where there is no good or
bad; where all pretenses at right and wrong stop
at the door. This place is known as the “Queen of
the Night”.
However, the policeman, Kamal, accompanied by
his side-kick, Pabina, decides he has had enough
of the night-spot’s famed neutrality & enters in
pursuit of the fugitive, G.C. & his sister, Sheri.
Continue
However they must contend with the laws of the
bar itself and its owner, the Queen.
... And it seems there is a price to pay for
disobedience.
Make We Waka ( 2pm, 4pm, 6pm)
Beyond the park's walls, Lagos city crackles with
life. Stories abound; some told, some hidden and
some forgotten. Lagos punctures the very air we
breathe; but here we ask you to stop, to look, to
listen to what the city might have to tell you.
Make we waka...
Diagnosis ( 2.15pm & 5.15pm)
Johnnie and Dan are good friends who have gone
through hell and high water to escape the
realities of Lagos living. They decide to pull off
internet scams on innocent victims. Finally, they
strike a chord with an Adeline McCulloch from
Canada who agrees to fund their imaginary NGO
scheme.
Things take a rather unexpected turn when
Johnnie’s girlfriend gets in the mix. It gets further
complicated as other elements that quite frankly,
have no business interfering in this emerging
deal!!!
Waiting for a lottery ( 3pm & 5pm)
Lotteries, like auditions, have provided gateways
to success and stardom in Lagos - a dreamland
surrounded by the waters of survival, dreams and
ambitions. Waiting for a Lottery is a fraudulent
reality of one’s struggle for the Golden Fleece
borne by the adage of the donkey and the carrot.
The play mirrors the opportunities that create the
platforms for mediocrity.

The Statue
A woman was in bed with her lover when she
heard her husband opening the front door. "Hurry!"
she said, "Stand in the corner." She quickly
rubbed baby oil all over him and then she dusted
him with talcum powder.
"Don't move until I tell you to," she whispered.
"Just pretend you're a statue."
"What's this, Honey?" the husband inquired, as he
entered the room. "Oh, it's just a statue," she
replied nonchalantly. "The Smiths bought one for
their bedroom. I liked it so much, I got one for us
too." No more was said about the statue, not even
later that night when they went to sleep.
Around two in the morning, the husband got out of
bed, went to the kitchen and returned a while later
with a sandwich and a glass of milk. "Here," he
said to the 'statue', "Eat something. I stood like an
idiot at the Smith's for two days and nobody
offered me so much as a glass of water."
