Thank God for artists 2face Idibia and Don Jazzy who have shown support by donating the combined sum of 2.5 million naira for the operation. Rapper Rugged man has also made a donation.
Don Jazzy has urged other celebrities and others who are able to do so, to help.
May God bless these men.

Chika Ike Named Brand Ambassador For National Refugee and Displaced Persons
My love for Chika Ike just continues to grow. She is one celebrity that puts her fame to good use.
The beautiful actress was appointed as the Brand Ambassador for National commission for Refugee and displaced persons by the Commissioner Haja Hadiza Kangiwal.
I am really happy for her and pray that God will continue to give to her as she gives to others as well.
Well done Chika!
Sunday Sermon: You're My Everything And Everything Is You
I remember a time that I found myself in a really bad relationship and every time I thought of walking away I would ask myself "But what will my weekends be like? Where would I go when I wanted to go out? The pool reminded me of him, the cinemas reminded me of him even the car park in front of my faculty reminded me of him! "I'm trapped!" I thought "He is everywhere! I better stay put."
It seemed like I couldn't remember what it was like to spend weekends alone or with my other friends and family. I didn't even want to tell people that our match-made-in-heaven-celebrity-romance had ended.
So many people caught in the web of addictive relationships. And often, we realise that we have been in relationships that have disappointed us in some way or another... relationships that didn't work out the way we had hoped, wanted or thought they would. And, we're not just talking about intimate and love relationships. We're talking about toxic friends, back stabbing relatives, abusive partners and controlling family members, vicious colleagues.
Sometimes the poisoned relationship is with a family member or a childhood friend. Or perhaps a friendship has lived out its purpose. In this case, so much time has been invested in the friendship that it is hard to let go. However, addictive relationships are most often evident in romantic interactions between men and women.
Often, children who are not loved, nurtured and encouraged in their independence are left feeling 'needy' as adults and may thus be more vulnerable to dependent relationships. These 'clingy' feelings which develop early in childhood, often operate without awareness and can exert considerable influence on a person's life. Often, dysfunctional relationship patterns are passed on from parents to their children
But the truth is when Jesus becomes everything, He will be enough. Someone I have had the privilege of being a part of my history, planted this seed in my heart at a time in my life when I did not know what the HECK she was talking about.
But now it is clearer to me and so much more important to me what she meant. There simply isn’t anyone like Jesus. Sometimes I have a word “jam” in my mind when I want to try to describe Him. He defies understanding. The closer you get to Him the quicker you realise that the human expression is sadly lacking in its ability to interpret Him. It is at this point that it becomes clear exactly who God is and who is a being that dwells inside of a speck of dust.
A time MUST come for ALL of us where Jesus becomes everything we could ever need. It is my prayer that today is that day. You will find that He is indeed enough. So it is and shall be in Jesus’ Name amen.

Style Focus: Ovire Peggy Enoho
Our style focus this week features gorgeous ex- beauty queen Ovire Peggy Enoho.
Ovire is not only into fashion and beauty, she is also a talented upcoming Nollywood actress.
Enjoy!
xx
My name is Ovire Peggy Enoho and I am an ex beauty queen. I won the Miss Galaxy International Nigeria pageant in 2007 and I am also an ex Miss Tourism Nigeria.
I am currently in the entertainment industry. I am an upcoming actress and regarded as a fashion icon.
My style is about simplicity, being classy and girly. My style choices go with my mood or the occasion but I have to be comfortable in anything I wear.
I don’t have any particular clothing brands that I really like but I buy what looks good on me. When it comes to accessories I love shoes and bags have got loads of them which are all branded.
With beauty brands I have got an oily skin so I stick to products that are oil free I never stay away from my Clarins oil free moisturizer .I keep up with my facials, and I love perfumes.
For a glamorous look reinvigorate your wardrobe with the little black dress you can never go wrong, Also skinny jeans, It gives you a sexy look by hugging your curves and it's appropriate for most occasions.
You can easily change a casual look to a more glamorous look with a platform heels. I also find that wearing bold jewelry from bracelets to earrings, to eye catching neck accessory can really polish my overall look.
Ovire is looking every inch a star with her outfit choices. She keeps it chic, girly but elegant at the same time. What do you think of Ovire style?
