Lets Talk on BANANA
Wonderfully sweet with firm and creamy flesh, bananas come prepackaged
in their own yellow jackets and are available for harvest throughout the
year.
The banana plant grows 10 to 26 feet and belongs to the Musaceae family of plants along with plantains.
The cluster of fruits contain anywhere from 50 to 150 bananas with individual fruits grouped in bunches, known as "hands," containing 10 to 25 bananas.

Dont be lazy, Mannastores can help you.
Laziness will always almost guarantee the failure of God’s children. God
is not weak, and He is not unwilling to bless us, but one of the
reasons we do not experience the supernatural as a body is because of
the lack of prayers. There is no excuse strong enough to justify a
prayer-less life.

Four elements contribute to the success of a movie at the box-office. They include good script, experienced director, professional publicist, and most importantly, the big name stars.
Of all the four, there is one a producer should never violate at the market place and that is the ‘star’ aspect of it. There could be a bad script, inexperienced director and not too good publicity for the movie but it is almost impossible to have Return On Investment (ROI) with un-bankable stars.
Wikipedia defines a bankable star to be an actor famous or charismatic enough to be “capable of guaranteeing box-office success simply by showing up in a movie”. It is common knowledge that a Will Smith will sell any movie no matter how bad as long as he has his face on the jacket.
In Nigeria, some movie stars have proven again and again that they can guarantee return on investment as long as their faces adorn the poster. They are Genevieve Nnaji, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, Omoni Oboli, Funke Akindele and Nse Ikpe-Etim. Or how else could one explain the success of box office hits like Mirror Boy, Ije, and Tango With Me all having Genevieve Nnaji starring in them? And what about Figurine and Anchor Baby which both starred Omoni Oboli as the lead actress?
Mirror Boy, Tango With Me, Last Flight to Abuja and Phone Swap all had sizeable negative reviews, yet they topped the box office, made huge profit and left many Hollywood movies far behind. Here, The Entertainer takes a look at Nollywood’s five bankable actresses, their earnings and what is possibly working for them.
Genevieve Nnaji
Topping the list of five is Genevieve Nnaji. Love or hate her, Genny as she is fondly called, has a way with cinema audiences that make them come back again and again for her movies.
So far, Genevieve’s starring in the movies has grossed over N83 million at the box office. Mirror Boy (described by the actress as her first major film and the first to put her at the box-office) made N18 million, while Ije netted N60 million turning out to be Nigeria’s highest grossing movie ever. But Genevieve had to share the money with Omotola, who also acted alongside her. If the sharing formula is 50-50, then Genevieve gets N30 million of the total gross.
Genevieve’s next movie, Tango with Me went on to make N35 million. So, putting all the figures together, Genny remains at the head of the pack. What seem to be working for Genevieve are her enduring power, popularity and social media connection. The actress has been there for over a decade and is still waxing stronger. Her wine seems to taste better with age.
Another plus for Genny is her popularity. Genevieve is hugely popular across Africa and most especially among the youths. Before now, she has been very active on the social media especially Twitter. She even had to put up a Facebook advert after reports emerged that some acts were ahead of her there.
Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde
Next on the list is Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde with box-office gross of N60 million. She made N24 million with Last Flight to Abuja, N6 million from Private Storm and her N30 million share in Ije bring her total earning to N60 million.
This year alone, no actress has made as much as N24 million from a single movie; Funke Akindele would have done so with The Return of Jenifa but the movie hit the box office in 2011.
Omotola, who was reported to have been paid N5 million by Tarila Thompson all in the bid to make his movie a blockbuster, has been described as the biggest box office actress of 2012. She recorded successes back to back but it remains to be seen if she can pull off the box office magic again with Amina and other movies coming in 2013.
Omotola has been an A-list actress even before Genevieve got her first big break and so what has been working for her is the wise investment in her brand. Her enduring presence and unceasing contact with her fans via the social media has made her popular even in an environment where a mother of four like her is not fashionable.
Funke Akindele
Surprisingly, the third person on the list is Funke Akindele, a young lady who rose to fame in I Need To Know, a TV series, and went on to earn a monstrous fame with Jenifa.
Funke is an unlikely candidate on this list. Now, how can one explain that she is third on a list parading heavy weights like Omoni Oboli, Nse Ikpe-Etim and Stephanie Okereke among others?
So far, Funke has made over N56 million, netting over N20 million in 2012 alone. In The Return of Jenifa, Funke netted N35 million. The movie ran till February 2012. Her movie, Married but Living Single made N9.9 million while Maami made N11 million. The actress is on her way to another cinema glory with a movie, A Wish. Let’s hope she will be able to wave the magical wand again and create a box-office success.
For Funke who recently got married, the plus factor for her is her huge popularity among the masses and elites. Her movie, Jenifa cuts across all social groups with the street parlance in it becoming the mode of communication in social gathering. And as an icing on the cake, Funke has moved upscale, she is now the toast of events organized by the rich and not so rich. Her box office credibility transcends the cinema as all DVDs parading her face turn into gold.
Omoni Oboli
Omoni Oboli, who is still largely unknown to those who don’t patronise the cinema and social media, is fourth on the list. She is a silent achiever. Before the trio of Genevieve, Omotola and Funke even dreamt of hitting the box office, Omoni Oboli already took the lead. Figurine, her first box office appearance made N13 million while her second effort, Anchor Baby made N18 million bringing her total earning to N31million.
Omoni’s strength is her exclusivity and knack for quality. It is a known fact that if the project is not big and ambitious, Omoni might not do it. The disadvantage of that is, despite her box office credibility, Omoni is still unknown in areas where there is no access to cinemas. Perhaps, that is the reason she tries to make up with the red carpet presence.
For now, the exclusivity is working for Omoni; perhaps her new movie, Broken and other works will introduce a new twist. One other thing that should not be forgotten is the unprecedented publicity of Anchor Baby in 2010. The film also had Omoni at the forefront of meeting and greeting of fans at the cinemas.
Nse Ikpe-Etim
The fifth slot belongs to Nse Ikpe-Etim. She seems to be the latest sensation in big budget movies. In Mr and Mrs, Nse was a delight, her performance was a reference point and it was a hook that kept drawing people to the cinema while the movie was there.
Mr and Mrs made N6 million while another of her film, Phone Swap made N20 million, making a total of N26 million.
Too early for Nse to cement her place, as she hasn’t done N15 million back-to-back but one thing the actress has made clear is that she has intention of doing that. The leading four acts should be afraid of Nse because her strength lies in her pure acting talent.
Nse is born to act, deemed to be unnecessarily assertive a times, but you can’t accuse her of not knowing her lines. And she pushes her movies with virgour, moving from one cinema to the other.
However, Nse should watch it as many have accused her of being too ‘self-conscious’, a term casually used for budding stars who have ‘over-hyped’ impression of themselves as this could alienate fans who make the box-office count.
Rita Dominic and Stephanie Okereke
Rita Dominic and Stephanie Okereke should readily make the list but they haven’t appeared at the cinemas more than once. Hopefully, Rita will break into the list with The Meeting, Lion of 76 and Street of Calabar while Stephanie already had N10 million under her belt with Through the Glass.
Of course, there are exceptions to the rules. A bankable star makes easier the job of a producer; the absence of one, however, is not a ready-made doom for a movie as Avatar and Slumdog Millionaire (both global box office hits) have shown. But if one would take a risk or err, it’s better to err on the part of caution.

Five rebel governors join APC
The New Peoples Democratic Party on Tuesday formally announced that it had merged with the opposition All Progressives Congress.
The decision was taken at a meeting between leaders of the APC and the New PDP at the Kano State Governor’s residence in Abuja.
The National Chairman of the New PDP, Alhaji Abubakar Baraje, announced the decision which was described by the Presidency as a welcome development.
“The Presidency does not feel
threatened; the PDP does not feel threatened,” the Special Adviser to
President Goodluck Jonathan on Political Matters, Mr. Ahmed Gulak,
told State House correspondents in Abuja.
But the New PDP said its members, including the rebel governors, were elated to “have abandoned PDP’s sinking ship.”
Although Baraje claimed that the group’s
merger with the APC was a unanimous decision, two of the seven
rebel governors – Babangida Aliyu (Niger) and Sule Lamido(Jigawa),
distanced themselves from it.
Governor Aliyu Wamakko(Sokoto) and Lamido were absent from the Tuesday meeting.
One of our correspondents reported that Aliyu attended the meeting but left before it ended.
The other rebel governors in
attendance were Rotimi Amaechi(Rivers); Rabiu Kwakwanso (Kano);
Murtala Nyako(Adamawa); and Abdulfatah Ahmed(Kwara).
The leaders of the New PDP that
attended the meeting were a former Governor of Osun State, Prince
Olagunsoye Oyinlola, Dr. Sam Jaja, ex-governor of old Abia State,
Dr. Ogbonnaya Onu; and a former Governor of Bayelsa State, Chief
Timipriye Sylva.
The APC team comprised Chief Bisi
Akande; a former Head of State, Maj.- Gen. Muhammadu Buhari; a former
Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; and an ex- Speaker of the
House of Representatives, Mallam Aminu Masari.
Like Aliyu, Buhari left before the meeting ended.
Baraje, who read a statement after the meeting, said they agreed to merge in the interest of Nigeria’s democracy.
The statement which was signed by Baraje
and the APC Interim National Chairman, Chief Akande, reads, “The
leadership of the APC and the New PDP met this(Tuesday) morning at the residence of the Kano State Governor, Dr. Rabiu Kwakwanso, in Abuja.
“After exhaustive deliberation, we agreed to merge in order to rescue our fledgling democracy and the nation.”
• Aliyu, Lamido distance selves from merger
But shortly after, Aliyu, a very vocal
member of the G-7, added a strange twist to the merger. His Chief Press
Secretary, Danladi Ndayebo, did not only deny that he attended the
meeting, he said the governor remained a member of the PDP.
Ndayebo, in a statement, said Aliyu was shocked that the merger was announced before a final decision on it was taken .
He argued that since reconciliatory
talks between President Goodluck Jonathan and the rebel governors were
still ongoing, the merger ought not to have been announced.
Also, Lamido, who said he remained a
member of the PDP, added, “I will not give anybody the pleasure of
engaging me by his terms for now.”
In a statement by his Director of
Press, Alhaji Umar Kiyari, the governor described himself as” the
living father of the PDP.”
The statement reads, “While I accept
that my party, the PDP is currently embroiled in a serious crisis caused
by the Bamanga Tukur style of leadership, that does not necessitate
me renouncing myself and relinquishing my historical authority to
anybody.
“It is true that myself and my family
are currently under a huge political web and campaign of misinformation
and smear to the extent that we have been adjudged guilty in the public
court by the gullible and the ill-informed, this will not intimidate or
harass me out of the party.
“I will not give anybody the pleasure of
engaging me by his terms for now, I wish to say that I remain the
living father of the PDP. As for my political persecutors, I will engage
them by my terms at the appropriate time. Nobody speaks for me but
myself.”
• We’ve abandoned PDP’s sinking ship – Eze
In spite of the position of Aliyu and Lamido, the New PDP said with its merger with the APC, the rank of governors in the PDP had further depleted.
In a statement by its National
Publicity Secretary, Chief Chukwuemeka Eze, the group said a similar
situation existed in the National Assembly where the APC now had the
majority.
It said, “Now, we have reached the stage
that we can only say: ‘PDP, your sinking ship has been abandoned to
you.’ You brought this misfortune upon yourself; now, you must bear it
alone.”
• It’s a welcome development
However, the Presidency and the PDP
said they were not worried by the development because the rebel
governors and their supporters would come back to the PDP after 2015.
Gulak, who spoke for the Presidency,
argued that with the development, the leadership of the PDP would no
longer be distracted from the task of building the party.
He added that many members of the APC
were already waiting for the rebel governors to take a final decision
before they would also declare for the PDP.
The Presidential aide said, “I know as
of a fact that five of them (the seven aggrieved governors) said they
would now join APC; but I know two of them – governors of Niger and
Jigawa states – issued statements, saying that they are not part of
that(merger).
“I believe others, for a long time have not had their hearts in the PDP.
“But it is good that they have told the
world that they have taken a stand so that PDP will not be distracted;
So that we in the PDP, will be focused to build our party.”
“A lot of people in the APC have
contacted me several times that they want to come back to PDP; that they
were just waiting for what happened today (Tuesday) to happen. And to
us, it is a good development.”
On whether the Presidency was not
feeling threatened ahead of 2015, Gulak said, “We do not feel
threatened; the PDP also does not feel threatened. The PDP is the
party to beat.”
Despite the rebel governors’ exit from the PDP however, the presidential aide did not completely rule out reconciliation.
He said the governors would always be welcomed back after they might have found out that life outside the PDP is empty.
“We are talking about peace;
reconciliation is an ongoing process.If they go outside there like
those that went there before them and realise that the outside is empty,
they are always welcome back home like we did before,” Gulak said.
Gulak had met behind closed doors with
the Chief of Staff to the President, Chief Mike Oghiadomhe, before
speaking with journalists.
Issues bordering on the development were said to have been discussed extensively at the meeting.
• Merger’ll fail –PDP
The PDP, through its National
Secretary, Prof. Adewale Oladipo, described the rebel governors’
action as a manifestation of the very fertile environment that “we as a
party, have brought into the Nigerian political environment.”
He, however, predicted that the marriage between the aggrieved PDP governors and the APC would not last.
Oladipo said, “The allegiance between
the splinter group and the APC will not last and they will return to
the PDP before long.
“I am assuring you that after May 29,
2015, many of these people will come knocking again, and like the
democrats that we are, we will welcome them with open hands.’’
He however admitted that the last four
months had been quite challenging for the party. He said that
President Goodluck Jonathan had effectively weathered the storm.
• Tinubu reacts
However, Tinubu, said the rebel governors and leaders of the APC and New PDP were committed to the task of rescuing the country from drifting.
He said, “Is a good rescue mission for
our fledgling democracy. It is a must for the country, it is very
necessary and we are happy about that.
“We are happy with the development; we
have the commitment to rescue our country from drifting and we act as a
group to promote the interest of this country.”
He said there was a possibility that more PDP governors would join the APC.
Tinubu added, “Why not half more? why not 28 . Are you seeing the trend with which we are going?”
• Why Aliyu, Lamido kicked
A highly placed source at the meeting said
that Aliyu told the meeting that he would join the APC in January
and that it was better for his colleagues to also discuss the mode of
their dumping the PDP together.
According the source , Aliyu was afraid
that some influential persons in Niger State, could take over the
structure of the PDP from him.
These influential persons are
believed to have perfected their plan to nominate a retired
colonel as PDP’s governorship candidate in 2015.
It was also gathered that Lamido was
already negotiating with the Presidency over the arrest of his two sons
by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for alleged money
laundering.
Their arrest is said to be pulling the governor back in his move to defect from the PDP.
“I think this was why he was still foot dragging by saying we should meet with the President first,” our source added.
Ahmed, who requested for a meeting
with the President before the final defection, was said to have no
option than to join his godfather, Sen. Bukoka Saraki, who was also
at the meeting.
It was not clear while the governor
wanted to be part of the meeting with the President. Another sources
said it was because of the fear that he might not be given either
the APC ticket or that of the PDP in the state during the 2015
election.
• How the deal was struck
Unknown to many, the meeting was not
free from disagreements as some of the aggrieved governors did not buy
the idea of them joining the APC at the moment.
Investigations showed that some of the rebel governors argued that the New PDP
should meet again after Tuesday’s meeting before taking a final
decision while others advised that they should use the word “work
together” with the APC in their statements instead of “merger.”
At the end of the deliberations,
Kwakwanso was said to have told his colleagues that those who wanted to
defect now were free to do so while others were free to move next year
or anytime they prefer.
However, majority of them preferred immediate merger with the APC.
• Jonathan-rebel govs meeting may not hold again
We however gathered that the planned meeting between Jonathan and the rebel governors on Sunday might no longer hold.
Investigations showed that the rebel governors were angry with the President over his refusal to meet with them last Sunday.
But the governors were said to have been
angry that though the President claimed to be ill, he performed state
functions on Monday.
• Oshiomhole, Imoke meet Jonathan
Meanwhile, a few minutes after the
aggrieved governors made their position known, Governor Adams Oshiomhole
of Edo State, an APC governor, met briefly behind closed doors with
Jonathan.
The meeting which was held inside the President’s office lasted about 20 minutes.
Oshiomhole declined to speak with journalists at the end of the meeting.
Shortly after he left, Governor Liyel
Imoke of Cross River State also arrived at the Presidential Villa to
meet with the President.
He was however directed to the President’s residence as he had left the office before the governor’s arrival.

Start a geniue business while FG is still waiting to pay the ASUU salary arrears
The
President of the Trade Union Congress, Mr. Boboi Kaigama and the Acting
General Secretary of the Nigeria Labour Congress, Mr. Chris Uyot, on
Monday, called on the Federal Government to accede to the demand of
striking university lecturers by paying their salary arrears from July
to October, 2013.
Both Kaigama and Uyot, who spoke in
different telephone interviews with our correspondent, said that the
issue at stake was too serious for the government to endanger with a
minor issue as the withholding of the salaries of the striking
lecturers.
Kaigama said that the lecturers should
have been paid their salaries as going on strike did not mean that they
were no longer entitled to their salaries.
He explained that the union went on
strike because the Federal Government failed to implement the 2009
agreement reached with the university lecturers.
He added that it was not the lecturers’
fault for embarking on the strike, saying the story would have been
different if it was ASUU that violated the terms of the agreement.
He said, “It is okay, they are supposed
to be paid their salaries; when one is on strike, it does not mean that
he cannot be paid his or her salary.
“They went on strike because of an
agreement that was negotiated which the government has not been able to
fulfill. The government should, pay them their salaries. The situation
would have been different if they were the ones that reneged on the
agreement.”
On the issue of the insistence of the
leadership of ASUU that the Federal Government must commence
implementation of the fresh agreement with the union through the release
of N100bn this year, he said that he did not see the government going
back on the agreement.
He said that the TUC and the NLC would
support ASUU to ensure the implementation of the last agreement as it
was witnessed by him and the NLC President, Mr. Abdulwahed Omar.
“The NLC President Omar, and I are
living witnesses to the final agreement that was reached between them
and the government; we will support them based on what we witnessed,
based on what they agreed with the government and the new implementation
strategy.
“The TUC and the NLC will back them to
ensure that the implementation strategy is followed. An aspect will be
implemented this year and the first quarter of next year,” he added
Kaigama said that while he wouldn’t
speak for ASUU, it was his conviction that they might have been waiting
for an agreement to be signed before calling off the strike.
Speaking also, the Acting General
Secretary of NLC, Uyot, said that the NLC was of the view that the
Federal Government would not allow the issue of the outstanding salary
arrears of ASUU members to disrupt its offer to the union.
Uyot said that it was unlikely that the
Federal Government would allow such a “minor issue” to derail its
discussions with the union considering the fact that both parties wanted
the issue of the lingering strike to be resolved.
He stated also that while ASUU went on
strike, the government couldn’t be exonerated from the industrial
dispute having failed to implement the 2009 agreement reached with the
university lecturers.
“Well, given the spirit of the
discussions between ASUU and government officials led by President
Goodluck Jonathan, the issue of non-payment of salaries, we do not
think, is something the government might consider because the spirit was
such that both parties particularly the government wanted resolved.
“So, we don’t think that a minute issue would derail the offer that the government has made.
“In any case both parties were involved
in the strike. The union signed an agreement with the government which
the government did not implement, so government cannot say that it was
not part of the problem,” he said.
Happy birthday to Mama HID Awolowo

Former Ekiti State Governor, Chief Segun Oni, and a Peoples Democratic Party governorship aspirant in Ekiti State, Dayo Adeyeye, have described the matriarch of the Awolowo family and the Yeye Oodua of Yorubaland, Chief Hannah Idowu Dideolu Awolowo, as the conscience and mother of the Yoruba nation.
Oni, in his congratulatory message to
HID on her 98th birthday on Monday, said, “Mama’s untiring efforts at
building and sustaining the unity of the Yoruba nation and ensuring its
worthy pride of place within the context of Nigeria’s federal structure
is commendable.
“We are particularly happy that in spite
of all challenges, mama has remained undaunted in her commitment to the
unity and wellness of the Yoruba race.
“In critical moments, mama has never
shied away from giving useful advice on the way forward for the country,
not minding her age.”
He prayed for many more active years for her and congratulated the Awolowo family on the occasion of her 98th birthday.
In his goodwill message, Adeyeye said,
“Chief Obafemi Awolowo will be happy that he left behind a worthy
matriarch, who has remained a jewel of inestimable value to the entire
Yoruba race and Nigeria in general.
“On behalf of myself, my family, the
entire PDP members and supporters in Ekiti State, I wish our mother a
most glorious 98th birthday anniversary.
“The attainment of this age by mama is
no doubt a confirmation of the grace the almighty God has bestowed on
her and it is my prayer that God will grant mama many more years in good
health.
“She is a pride to us, the disciples of
Baba Awolowo and the entire Yoruba race. I have no doubt in my mind that
mama is more than a jewel to many of us and we shall continue to hold
her in very high esteem.
