About Tiwa Savage’s Unique ‘Outfit’

Honestly, Tiwa Savage is good at what she does. As an actress, model and musician, her introduction into the Nigerian music industry gave female musicians hope that they could compete favorably with the men as pop stars. Writing as someone who has seen Savage perform on stage, I still haven’t seen any Nigerian female musician who can match her energy on stage. Yes, her voice is a strong selling point. Any female musician who wants to make it as a pop star in this country should use Savage’s career as a blue-print.

Besides the admiration and attention Savage gets as a musician, her sense of fashion often irks her fans. Whether it’s the body suit she wore in her Wanted video (the video itself is a story for another day) or the see-through dress she wore to this year’s edition of the BET Awards show, anytime she steps out, her dressing always attracts some form of attention.
Anyone who has followed her career will also notice that Savage has become a lot liberal with her fashion choices. Also, she has almost single-handedly brought ‘sexy’ back to Nigerian show-business. If she releases a video today, be sure that you will see a lot of skin from either Savage or her dancers. Resultantly, many have labeled her “the Nigerian Beyonce”, “a Beyonce wannabe” or a “bad copy of Nicki Minaj”.
But the singer has not taken it lying down. She also has a few words to say in her defense on Twitter. “[I'm] going to speak my mind this morning. People only wanna see fault in others. No one speaks when I wear dresses. Why do you people only focus on certain outfits? No one talks when I wear gowns. People only wanna dwell on negatives. Haters wanna make out like I only wear pants. Get a life. Truth is, most haters do worse things behind closed doors. It’s unfortunate [that] the criticism is not valid. If I was always unclad, then fine; but, truth is, most times, I am not.”
Considering the above, it is obvious that Savage doesn’t give a hoot what anybody thinks about her dress sense. One thing is a given; sex sure sells, be it overseas or in Nigeria and TATTLES is sure Mrs Billz is smiling to the bank!

Lagos Government May Charge,TB Joshua

A coroner of inquest has been set up by the Lagos state government for the purpose of investigating the cause of the September 12 collapse of a guest house belonging to the Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) that killed no fewer than 115 people.

According to This Day, this was disclosed in a statement by the Public Relation Officer of the Ministry of Justice, Mrs. Bola Akingbade.

According to the statement, the Coroner court has all the powers of a magistrate to summon and compel the attendance of witnesses, including medical examiners, and require them to give evidence, produce documents or present other relevant materials.

A statement credited to the Lagos State Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Mr. Ade Ipaye, says the coroner inquest will be headed by Magistrate O. A. Komolafe in pursuant to Section 15 of the Lagos State Coroner’s System Law No. 7 of 2007 and their duty is to establish the cause of the Synagogue collapse.
Ipaye said: “Komolafe has all the powers of a magistrate to summon and compel the attendance of witnesses, including medical examiners, and require them to give evidence, produce documents or present other relevant materials.”
Ipaye explained that depending on the final submission of the coroner, there might be an institution of a criminal charge against the church and it may be prosecuted.
There are indications that the Coroner court will commence sitting from next week at the premise of the Ikeja High Court.
It would be recalled that Prophet TB Joshua of SCOAN had attributed the tragic collapse to a strange aircraft which hovered over the building for some minutes before the incident.
Meanwhile, professional builders in Lagos State, have faulted the “strange aircraft”  theory purported by the Synagogue church.
Several groups have called for the arrest and trial of T.B Joshua.

A South African opposition party, Democratic Alliance has said it would sue the founder of the Synagogue Church of All Nations, SCOAN, Prophet T. B. Joshua, over the deaths of some of its nationals at the church building collapse in Ikotun, Lagos State.
