How Segun Demuren saved my music career — Banky W

By

Suave singer and honcho of Empire Mates Entertainment (EME), Banky W has revealed that at a point in his life, he almost gave up on his music career, but for the intervention of his fellow EME founder, Segun Demuren.

Taking on his Instagram page during the week to congratulate Demuren on his birthday, Banky W wrote, “The morning of Jan 1st 2009 was one of the worst of my life. I went to Church the night before to pray in the New Year…and there I poured my heart out to God. You see, I moved back to Lagos on Feb 14th 08. It was a tough decision quitting my well-paid engineering job in NYC and moving back, but I felt incomplete and unfulfilled…and then Segun walked into my room and said ‘hey bro.. I know it’s really bad right now. But the good news is, this is rock bottom. You have hit it, and you’re still alive. It can only get better from here, but you can’t let it defeat you’…I didn’t have a penny to even pay for the studio time. He asked me to find out how much it would cost to record with Cobhams; I did. The next day he walked into my room with the entire amount in full that he had borrowed from someone. Plus extra for cab fare. God has used Segun to guide, direct, help, support and save me on too many occasions.”
In conclusion, Banky W admitted that he intentionally shared the story to inspire other young ones out there. In his words, “I shared this particular story because I also want to encourage you all. I know life can be hard and harsh, but don’t give up hope after the darkest of nights, because your morning is right around the corner.”

How to steal someone’s data MB or GB through a code with just his or her number

This cheat only works using mtn sim... For example, you can't use airtel or glo sim to do this trick; but you can use mtn sim to potray this trick on any other sim. Supposing your victim uses any sim other than mtn, this trick will still work, as far as you are using mtn sim.. So it goes like this; dial this code: *88567*the victims number*the amount of data you want to collect*131# Note: If the individual doesn’t have upto that amount you tried collecting... It will not work you will surely get an invalid response. After dialing the code, your are still on the right track, don't be afraid; Change your date to 01|01|2000 and change it back to the correct one immediately... After that remove your sim and put it back. Then check your data... Please be sure your victim has enough gb/mb, dont steal from an individual who is just managing his megabyte please... Goodnews is that this cheat works for atleast 70% of mtn sims... Badnews is that this operation must be carried out u...

Many people thought Nollywood actor, IK Ogbonna and his Colombian fiancee were crazy when the duo hooked up off a couple of romantic exchanges over the Instagram. With barely anything to hold on to, the Colombian Sonia Lareinaa left her family and country to come to Nigeria to settle with her hunk here. With open hands IK welcomed her. It is stuff made of crazy love. “She’s an awesome person and we met off social media; I left a breakup and at that point in time I was really not thinking of getting into any relationship. A friend of mine pointed her instagram page to me and I wasn’t really interested in surfing the internet at that point in time, but then again, I had a second look at her page and I was liking her pictures and unconsciously she was liking my pictures and from there, we started talking and it was almost as if it was just meant to be. It was just two people with like minds coming together with a lot of positive chemistry being built up and then before you know anyt...
