Prince Jide Kosoko and late wife

Daughter of former Oyo State governor, controversial snitchlady, journalist, gun violence activist and social media personality, Kemi Olunloyo is in the news again, but this time for trying to make peace with the Kosokos.

Kemi Olunloyo has come on social media to tender her apologies to the Kosokos over her comments on the death of Jide Kosoko’s third wife, Henrietta Kosoko.

After she made allegations that Prince Jide Kosoko may have used his wife for ritual, noting that it was a rare coincidence for a man to lose three wives consecutively, a mild drama played out on the social media yesterday as Ms. Olunloyo engaged in war of words with Taiwo Olowu, one of the twin sons of the deceased.

Her accusations led to comments from members of the public including a Morenike Kosoko, who called Olunloyo a prostitute. In response, Olunloyo said she hoped the late Henrietta would end up in hell.

Morenike, in a direct tweet to the social critic wrote: “Not married and you have two children. You be olosho asewo.”

In a swift response, Ms. Olunloyo, whose public criticism of people apparently knows no bounds, tweeted: “Hope your Henrietta goes straight to hell.

“I left a domestic abusive situation not like you ritualist kinds that die I it.

“How many kids did she have for another man?” she tweeted.

In his reaction, the deceased’s son, a songster popularly known as LT wrote: “Kemi did not confirm who the children of Henrietta Kosoko are before insulting my mum, saying she will go to hell.”

Barely 24 hours after, Ms. Olunloyo apologized over her ‘rest in hell’ comment.

She then took to her Facebook page, apologizing for her statements about Henrietta going to hell stemmed from her anger at Morenike.

She wrote, “I sincerely apologize to Taiwo the son of Henrietta Kosoko and Jide Kosoko. My reaction from Morenike Kosoko angered me. Calling me the wizard of prostitutes Olosho Asewo is uncalled for. I had my two children out of wedlock because of domestic violence at 27yo and late Henrietta also had the twins for another man she left too. I have learned not to engage Nigerians on social media who say such. I had a right to be angry at the time but anger is not the answer. May Henrietta rest in peace and not hell and to Jide Kosoko stay strong.
Sincerely,
KOO”

FG berates US congressman over comment

Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture Photo: Femi Ipaye/PM News The Federal Government has described as sadly out of tune with reality the published letter from US Congressman Tom Marino to Secretary of State John Kerry, asking the US to withhold security assistance to Nigeria on the strength of some imaginary infraction by the Buhari Administration. In a statement issued in Abuja on Sunday, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said Congressman Marino was poorly informed about the issues he commented on, wondering why he did not take the pains to get first hand information from the US Embassy in Nigeria or any other credible source before engaging in what is nothing but a ‘propaganda of his own imagination’. The Minister said by asking the US to refrain from selling warplanes and other military equipment to Nigeria based on a faulty premise, the Congressman has demonstrated a poor understanding of global security issues. ”Insecurity anywhere i

Ndong was in the capital city Libreville but failed to turn up for international duty ahead of the Mali game last month, forcing the Gabonese Football Federation [Fegafoot] to send him back to England. But a remorseful Ndong, who held clear-the-air talks with Fegafoot has been included in a 23-man Panthers squad. Other names to make the final party include Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina, Bruno Ecuélé Manga of Cardiff City and China-based striker Malick Evouna.
