Pictures: Will you buy a Made in Nigeria IVM Car?
*After reading this, please tell us if you would by an IMV Car?
If you didn’t know, Nigeria has an Automobile company and it’s called Innoson. They manufacture buses, vans and SUVs. I hardly see them on the road though but I think if the Federal Government of Nigeria can support IVM with good policies and funding just like America supports GM and Ford, it will go a long way.
Personally, I think they are doing poorly in terms of advertising and branding, Their website is very poor and political (unprofessional). I was expecting to see 3D, high graphic images. Also, I’ve never seen them on TV, a lot of things just seem so off.
But I think they can get better.
IVM is part of the Innoson Group of Companies founded by the visionary Chairman, Mr. Innocent Chukwuma, Officer of the

How I was Robbed in an Airplane. Passenger Recounts Midair Bitter Experience
I had traveled from Lagos to Port-Harcourt on Saturday, March, 10 2012, by 7.45a.m, in one of Nigeria’s airlines (name withheld by Daily Sun). The flight was smooth. When we touched down, an elderly man was complaining that his hand luggage had been swapped with another bag. I just laughed inside me, thinking that the man was not smart. I left the airport for the ceremony I went to attend in the Garden City.
I never knew it would be my turn to lament. As I opened my bag to bring out a bundle of N200 naira notes during the ceremony, I discovered that it had vanished. Evaporated into the thin air. The thing looked like cinema. I emptied my bag, searched and searched but the bundle of money was gone. It then dawned on me that the same fate that befell the man I disdained in the aircraft

Spanking New Video: Timi Dakolo – Love Song
If you enjoyed the era of soulful music from Michael Bolton, Phil Collins and the likes, then you are sure going to enjoy this one from Nigeria’s own Timi Dakolo (winner of the first season of Idols West Africa in 2007) as he makes a grand entrance with this magnum opus of a song.
Huge credit goes to Clarence Peters for expressing it in the best possible way ever, exquisite video for the song.
Best of both worlds if you ask me:
Timi – a wonderful vocalist in his class, flushing out the soul in every song he’s ever sang.
Clarence – A guru when it comes to video making, you can compare him with any international video director in any part of the world.
The result? CLASSY stuff.
“Love Song” is a track off Timi’s latest album “Beautiful Noise”

IBK SPACESHIPBOI: I HAVE A DREAM (VIDEO TRAILER)
The Don Jazzy’s Enigma winner and producer of the BET naija rap cypher is on to something new!
Of recent, the name IBK has been on the lips of many–from radio jingles, exclusive interviews to special features. The renowned producer, singer/songwriter and vocal instructor is well known for his vocal arrangements and gritty production skills.
His music is hard to label style wise, it is a mix of genres : Gospel, jazz, neo-soul, hiphop and even RnB. There are many WORDS we can classify IBK with – different, unusual, ‘out-er-the-box’ – but he’d rather call himself spaceshipboi; believing he has been sent to add value to the world he currently finds himself in (earth).
Earlier in the month, he shot the video for “I HAVE A DREAM,” a track off of his upcoming “I COME IN PEACE”
