Nollywood Veteran Actor Pa-Kasumu Needs N12million to survive as He battles heart and liver diseases.

Nollywood actor Olukayode Odumosu, popularly known as Pa Kasumu, needs N12 million to address the health challenges that are pushing him to the brink.

He is struggling to stay alive at LUTH as he battles heart and liver diseases; "secondary prevention of repeat stroke," after battling a cardiovascular disease, otherwise known as stroke.
Speaking with The Nation newspaper, he recounted that his ailment began in 2009.

Since then, he has been undergoing series of diagnostic tests and costly medications.

All these have deprived him of any meaningful professional engagement in the movie industry; hence, he is suffering serious financial handicap.
Odumosu, who hails from Odogbolu in Ogun State and recently clocked 6o, said his vision was also failing.

"I have spent so much on these diseases. When it was first diagnosed, the doctors said the ailment was severe, that they would need to control its progression for it not to affect my kidneys. This they did, and I was happy they succeeded, but now, other serious ailments have set in, necessitating this battle of survival. I am not tired yet; I still want to continue to make people laugh, but my failing health is a terrible obstacle." he said

He also said he was experiencing memory loss due to the ailment, adding that it was time the government, corporate organisations and kind-hearted Nigerians rescued him from likely "untimely death."

He gave his bank details as:

Olukayode Olugbenga Odumosu; 
Diamond Bank 
Account number: 0036059543. 

And his mobile telephone numbers: 08033535159 and 08096762254.
He added that his son, Tunde, could also be reached on 08174435105.

I Have 168 children - African China reveals

It's either the PM New reporter that did the interview didn't hear right, or African China was just messing with him. Below is what PM News is reporting...
This may sound incredible but popular music artiste, Chinagorom Onuoha, better known as African China, insists he had 168 kids from different women before he got married.
Speaking with P.M.News Sunday in Festac Town, Lagos, Onuoha disclosed that he is not a sex-freak but he was unable to turn down sexual advances from his teeming female fans.
Onuoha, who sometime ago was involved in a sex scandal in the UK, said he decided to accept the pregnancies because he did not want the ladies to abort the pregnancies.
"It is not that I enjoy running after the opposite sex, but as a star, I always find them around me and there's no way I can just chase them away. As a matter of fact, I had an option of telling the ladies to abort the pregnancies but I know the Bible is against such."
Yeah right you have 168 children in your mid 30's, Mr China. Continue..

Raised in the slum of Ajegunle, Onuoha said he wonders why people castigated hip hop artiste, Innocent Idibia, better known as Tuface, for having children from different women.
With the sex scandal still haunting him, Onuoha warned people who may want to bring his hard earned reputation into disrepute to be prepared for war.

"My brother, some people may want to use the sex scandal against me but they do not know that they may incur the wrath of the law because I have been certified clean by a competent law court in the United Kingdom. Such people would pay through their nose," he said.

Commenting on how he is being perceived by his fans for fathering 168 kids, he noted that he bears no grudge over their reactions as he owes them no apology.

On his sudden disappearance from the music scene, he said he didn't go off the music circuit but had been in the studio working on a new album that is about to be released.

According to him, "I'm not finished yet, I am still in the music industry. My fans who want to see more of me can come to Ibiza Nite Club where I anchor a show."
He urged his fans to be prepared for his latest album as it would rock their world and the entire music industry.

"It is not as if I'm boasting but I have dedicated so much of my time and energy to it because I have already set a standard and that standard will not drop but will continue to rise because I am born to sing and entertain people."

How some students almost mobbed and cursed Yomi Fash-Lanso for refusing to sign autographs

Yoruba actor, YomiFash Lanso, was nearly mobbed by his fans at D’Rovans Hotel in Ibadan area on Thursday afternoon.
Eye witness accounts had it that Fash-Lanso, in company with one of his colleagues at a fashion school in the area, was sighted by few  students of the school and asked him and his colleague for autographs, but he bluntly refused their requests despite all pleas.
According to witnesses, his colleague complied while Fash-Lanso did not, prompting the school’s proprietor to appeal to him to give the students his autograph.

To the students’, proprietor’s and passers-bye’s amazement, the actor declined to sign any autograph, saying he would not give his autograph.
Within the twinkle of an eye,  amazement turned into fury as the fans nearly mobbed him, calling him names.
One of the witnesses said that  the actor’s reaction did not surprise him as he had heard from many that the actor was an arrogant person.
“I have always heard that YomiFash-Lanso is arrogant but I did not believe it until now. I used to like him, but with that display he showed, he’s really a ...”
Another quipped that; “I don’t understand why people would want an autograph from him. The guy is too full of himself and it’s not as if he acts that well. We have seen the likes of Oga Bello, Ogogo, Yinka Quadri and Funsho Adeolu come personally down to greet us and sign autographs for us here. It is a shame that an actor would display this kind of pride and arrogance to his fans. Doesn’t he know that without his fans, he is nothing?”
It took the intervention of the school proprietor, the actor’s colleague and some other people in the vicinity to prevail upon the fans who had made up their minds to deal with him.

"I didn't want to board the plane..." Feyi Agagu reveals how he survived and why Agagu’s casket was intact after plane crash

In a recent interview with vanguard, a close family friend of Feyi, son of late Chief Agagu, who is one of the survivors of the ill fated Associated Airlines flight, disclosed how Feyi and the other survivors cheated death and why Agagu's casket was intact!

Below is what a family insider Feyi spoke to said;

“The young man said that once they got to the tarmac before boarding and once he sighted the plane, what struck him was the seemingly very old look of the plane. Feyi said he didn’t like the looks of the plane. He also said but for the importance and significance of the trip, his inner sense didn’t feel comfortable boarding the plane.

“In fact, Feyi said he told another survivor, Femi Akinsanya, that the plane looked too old and he didn’t feel like boarding. But Feyi said he was told not to get himself worked up needlessly since this was not going to be his first time aboard a plane neither would this be the first old-looking plane that he would board. That was how he said he boarded the plane”.

“Feyi recounted how he and Femi Akinsanya boarded the plane and moved straight to the back end to take up seats. Why Feyi chose the back seat”, the source said, “was more a function of his state of mind about the state of the plane rather than a preference for taking a back seat.

“When they sat down, Feyi told me that he and Femi simply prayed that they should just take off and land safely, oblivious of what lay ahead of them. “Feyi said once they took off, everything happened so fast. What he also told me was that both he and Femi noticed what looked like a crack not far from where they sat at the rear end of the plane.

“He said everything happened so fast that by the time the plane crashed on the ground, it was that crack that had been noticed earlier that transformed into a gapping exit point upon impact on the ground.

“Feyi said the exit point created was where he and Femi escaped through”.

Also, explaining why the casket carrying Agagu’s corpse was intact after the plane crashed on Thursday morning, it was disclosed that the casket was latched to the hooks in the cargo compartment of the plane and was placed in the rear end of the plane.

People who sat at the back of the plane survived the crash, so the casket, which was kept at the back also survived the crash.
