Singer Praiz Announces That He Is Single And Wants To Mingle

Nigerian R&B Singer Praiz, has revealed that his last relationship left him heartbroken and that was what motivated him to release the record, ‘Folashade,’ which earned him a Headies award....

In a chat with Saturday beat; He said, “Folashade was inspired by my last relationship; I like to write songs based on true life experiences so that a lot of people would be able to relate with the songs. On the day I recorded the song, I was very heartbroken so when I got into the studio, I started making the beat. I produced the song myself. 


I poured out words that I felt came to me based on the mood I was at the time and when I was done with the song, everyone said it was a nice idea. When it was released, everyone loved it because it was different and I am happy the song got its due acknowledgment. But the girl’s name was not Folashade.


The singer noted that recently he has been feeling lonely, encouraging any lady who is interested in him to ‘shoot their shot’ as he would love to have a girlfriend soon, “At the moment, I am single, so ladies who are interested in me should try their luck, they should ‘shoot their shots’ because to be honest, there are times when I get lonely, there are times I just want to know I have a girlfriend. So whoever is interested should apply within.


The Rich and Famous singer disclosed that his parents have begun to mount pressure on him about marriage but he always tries his best to avoid such conversations. “I actually avoid talking about marriage with my parents. Anytime I go home, they try to bring it up but I find a way to change the conversation. The last time it happened, I was talking about a particular subject with my father that had nothing to do with relationship or even marriage and all of a sudden, my father said, ‘Praiz you know that the bible says…’ I had to cut him short and informed him that I was jet-lagged because I knew he was going to say something like the bible says it is not good for a man to be lonely. I know my father very well, so I just told him that I was very tired. 


It is not that I would not want to get married, I believe in love and I would want to get married someday but the time has to be right. Marriage is not something you should rush into, inasmuch as I know it is good to get married while you are young, a lot of youth rush into marriage and in six months’ time, it packs up.


A lot of people believe that courtship is a waste of time but I believe in getting to know the person I am dating or whoever I am considering spending the rest of my life with the same way that the person has to know who I am. I need to know her likes and dislikes and it works both ways.

Pastor stabbed to death after Armed men invaded his church

Pastor Ibukun Adeyinka of Christ Apostolic Church, Sanctuary of Blessing, Iju Ishaga area of Lagos State was stabbed to death by hoodlums who stormed the church.

Reports are that those who killed the pastor did not leave with any property of the church, therefore, the incident can be regarded to as an act of assassination.
The deceased wife, Olasunbo said the hoodlums struck at about 3am on 30th of May adding that they said nothing throughout the time of attack.
She said:
“We were asleep when they entered the church. They came to our house and we didn’t know anything was happening until we heard a sound like something was falling. .
There was a power outage, so we couldn’t see clearly. My husband was the first to wake up. They broke into the house through the front door. They didn’t say anything to us even as we asked what they wanted from us. .
I just heard my husband shouting, ‘In Jesus name’. I also re-echoed it, saying ‘Amen, in Jesus name.’ I never knew they had stabbed him in the chest. They left by scaling the church’s fence. I saw that my husband had become weak. That was when I knew that they had stabbed him. There was a lot of blood in the room.”
“They didn’t take anything. Up till now, I can’t say who they are and why they did what they did.”
A Facebook user, Amah Eze who shared the story claimed that the hoodlums who were absconding took the church as an escape route after a robbery operation.
She wrote:
“He was always ringing a bell at 12 midnight for prayers. So humble that whenever he greeted a small girl like me, he always bowed down. Only for absconding thieves to run into his church while he was praying as usual, and cut him with a machete. That’s how he met his death; but God knows best.”

Man Who Murdered His Girlfriend's Sister Claims Police Forced Him To Confess

Stephen Luka, who is standing trial for brutalising his ex-girlfriend and killing her sister, standing trial in a Jos High Court, said the police tortured him to obtain his confessional statement.

Giving evidence in a trial-within-trial on Tuesday in Jos, Luka rebutted the charges and showed the court scars he sustained during the torture to obtain his statement.

Stephen Luka was arraigned before the court in October 2016 charged with murder, attempted murder, assault and sexual abuse.


The defendant was alleged to have attacked two sisters Simi Dusu and Justina Dusu on July 27, 2016 at his home, in Sabon Gari, Tudun Wada, Jos, when they went to break the news that Justina was pregnant.

According to report, Luka was not happy when Justina insisted on keeping the baby, lost his control and used a machete on both sisters, resulting in Simi’s death and Justina losing her left eye.

The Divisional Crime Officer, Mr Bolaji Ayenumuro of the “A” Divisional police headquarters on May 6, testified and told the court that the accused person in a statement confessed to the murder without any duress.

Luka, led in evidence by his counsel, Mr David Adudu, told the court that the statement was forcefully taken from him on Aug. 2 and Aug. 3 2016, respectively.

“On Aug. 2, 2016 at about 8 p.m I was in the cell, when one Sgt. Apollos came to take me out and led me into the crime office where I met other policemen.

“They asked me if I committed the crime and I told them no. They immediately started to beat me but I still told them I did not do it, I was then taken back to my cell.

“At 7 p.m. the next day they took me back to the crime office and this time around they put a chain on my legs and placed hand cuffs on one hand.

“They started to torture me again, when I could no longer bear the pain, I told them I committed the crime, my statement was taken and was I forced to sign.”

During cross examination by the prosecuting counsel, Mrs Muleng Alex, the defendant said that it took the police three days to extract the statement from him.

When asked to identify the signature and date written on his statement, Luka said “this is not the statement and I cannot recognise the signature on it.”

The prosecutor prayed the court to allow the defendant to write a date on a piece of paper to ascertain whether the handwritings were the same.

However, when he did the two writing turned out to be the same.

The defense counsel, Mr David Adudu, thereafter prayed the court to give him 21 days to file a final written address for the defence.

The judge, Mrs Nafisa Musa, after listening to his plea, adjourned the matter to July 24 to enable both parties file their final written addresses for the trial within trial.
