Koko Mansion Finalist Chidinma Dies At 22‎

Reality star, Chidinma Mbalaso of Koko Mansion dies in a car crash in Kaduna. 

 Chidinma Mbalaso from the Reality TV show the Koko Mansion died this morning after sustaining serious injuries from a car crash in Kaduna yesterday. She died at 22. She had been in a coma and needed blood, but died before help could come.
It seems like a bad dream because Sharon Ojong also from Koko Mansion was tweeting yesterday asking for anyone in Kaduna who would donate blood for Chidinma. This is very sad.
She made it to the final four of Koko Mansion show.
Her death comes a day after upcoming comedian, CD John also dies in a car crash. Something definitely need to be done about out roads in Nigeria.
RIP Chidinma Mbalaso. May your gentle rest in perfect peace.

Governments are only concerns about the election, nothing is been done to the issue of bad roads.

Robbers Snatch Wizkid’s Car at Gunpoint! 

 

EME act Wizkid is lucky to be alive, after armed bandits attacked him around 8PM on Saturday March 5, 2011 and made away with his car.
The 20 year old yet-to-debut hit-maker was reportedly riding with his friends (an unnamed lady, and Wande Coal‘s younger brother) in his Black Honda Accord i-VTEC when the incident happened.
Multiple sources tell NET Wizkid was on Ikorodu road, (in Lagos) on his way home, when the robbery incident happened.
‘There was an accident around there, and the robbers made away with several cars’ an inside source, who pleaded anonymity because the label was yet to make any announcement, tells us.
While Wizkid’s friends were let off, the robbers made the singer accompany them to Third Mainland bridge, where they dropped him off and left him stranded.
‘They took everything he had on him, including his mobile phones, so he had to trek all the way from third mainland bridge, back to the mainland’ a friend and associate tells us.
The car in question, we understand is the controversial Honda believed to have been a gift from his friend Tonto Dikeh.

Where the people dem yapa like colors of rainbow
So this one day I goo town
Still trying to keep my head down low.
But the harder I try on the more obvious it seemed.

The light he shine now
Dem won kill am

Na Midwest I dey but sometimes I dey rock
In my black and yellow.
