DNA twins, Upcoming music stars, allegedly kidnapped on their way to Lagos on Sunday
Rising music stars, Blair and Clinton Roberts popularly known as DNA Twins
were reportedly kidnapped on their way to Lagos last Sunday April 24th.
After the cut, you will find the full story as shared by their brother
and a witness...
My brothers CLINTON & BLAIR (DNA-TWINS) were kidnapped on Sunday morning en route from Abuja to Lagos. The transport company they used #EKESONS, was attacked, the driver was shot in the eye and the rest of d passengers were robbed but only my brothers were kidnapped. The kidnappers called us and are asking for a N6Million ransom. We think they are being held in KOGI state. The transport company # EKESONS has also denied all this saying that no1 is missing and all the passengers returned safely to Lagos. Please help us spread this and pray that they return home safe. God bless! Tag anyone you think can help.A witness account below...
We boarded the bus from Ekeson bus Utako Abuja enroute to lagos, made a stop over at girri junction to pick up three other passengers. We stopped at Lokoja for some refreshments, after a 10-15 mins drive from lokoja, we were ambushed by some unknown gunmen who shot three times at our vehicle,we all ran into a nearby bush leaving all our belongings in the bus, when we got back most of our stuffs were left unscathed except for a few bags. A good Samaritan drove our bus to Ferma office at Kabba Junction, where doctors at the road safety office treated the driver and removed the bullets. The road safety officials took a head count from the passenger manifest and realized that two people were missing, a passenger by name Mr Ijeoma called the Abuja office to report the case and request for a new bus, which they swiftly responded to by confirming that two boys were kidnapped and the kidnappers are demanding a ransom of 6million, also the management sent a bus immediately which i personally found impressive. The bus sent by Ekeson Transport from abuja to convey us to lagos arrived around 3pm and we boarded and left for lagos at around 3:20PM without the twins onboard. The most amazing part of this story is that the transport company has denied this situation happening, they neglected to call the other passengers who survived to at least know how we were doing, they have refused to help with the ransom of 6million I hear now it's 10million and they have denied the boys been boarded on their bus despite evidence attcahed and witness. This incident occurred around 11:40am on Sunday the 24th of April 2016Photos from the scene of the alleged kidnapping below...
How Gunmen ambushed and attacked their bus "EKESON transport" on their way to Lagos. shot the driver, robbed the whole bus and took away the twins away.
The kidnappers who contacted their family for a ransom of 6Million and demanded it's paid before 25th of April, which was yesterday, has increased the Ransom from 6million to 10Million Naira Today while speaking to their mom because they didn't meet up their earlier bargain. The boys are still alive as at this morning because they were allowed to speak with their mom for confirmation. According to their mom, they were crying profusely and begging for help. They are presently being held in Kogi state.
The case has been reported to the Nigerian police. But we can't just fold our arms and do nothing. Please if you have any vital information that can lead to finding their whereabouts, kindly visit the nearest police station to give this information. Because the family don't have 10million to pay as ransom. They've not even raise 1M right now. Your information can help save their lives. As they are still doing all they can to try and raise this enormous ransom.
Please do help in every way you can to get the twins safe back to their family.Below are pictures from the scene of the hijack. The Shot Driver, The Bus and every other

Charly Boy's tribute/farewell to iconic Prince
Not many people know of my connect with the beautiful soul called Prince. My first encounter with this special spirit was in 1982, in a city called Providence in Rhode Island all the way in the USA. We were at one of his concerts, I still remember it like it happened yesterday. The first and only time in my life that I was transfixed, perplexed, hypnotized and melting at the sight of a fellow human being. The next time was in the city of New York, two years later, this time my seemingly larger than life style which was nothing beside this iconic maestro, had attracted a back stage pass for me to be in the same room with some one whom I had started worshiping like a demi-god. A man who unknowingly, had planted this seed in me and gave me this impetus to build one of the most controversial brand in Naija…, Yes, Prince was an influence on the Charlyboy brand.
In him I saw the direction I wanted my career to go. The Purple Rain musician touched me personally and inspired millions more. I may have walked away that night with only a handshake, but it was a handshake that changed my life for the better. It awoken a desire to be an entertainer like this demi-god that just shook my hand. From that night, I became an avid fan. I read and followed any news on him, I listened with rapt attention. The more I researched him the more I fell in love with him, you can take that literally. If I ever had any gay tendencies, he would have been the one I would have given my body to. That’s how deep my love is for this beautiful soul. Rumors circled him because he had such a defiantly outlandish persona with a sexuality as ambiguous as it was voracious. Oh my Prince. He was born Prince Rogers Nelson and stood just 5ft 2in yet he flawlessly knew how to summon the most original and compelling sounds at will, whether he was playing the guitar in a flamboyant style that openly drew upon Jimi Hendrix, or switching his vocals from a nasal scream to an erotic falsetto or turning out album after album of stunningly original material. His achievements were bigger than him. Among his other notable releases were Sign O’ The Times, Graffiti Bridge and The Black Album. I still can’t figure out which is my favorite. I also learned how to fight for what I stand for like him. He was fiercely protective of his independence, his privacy, I remember when he had to battle his record company over control of his material and even his name. Reminds me of my fight for Nigerian Musicians during my tenure as the PMAN president years back. Prince once wrote “slave” on his face in protest at not owning his work and famously battled and then departed from his then label, Warner Bros, before returning a few years ago. A reconciliation he negotiated on his own terms I recall him saying “What’s happening now is the position that I’ve always wanted to be in,” he told The Associated Press in 2014. “I was just trying to get here.” In 2004, Prince was inducted into the Rock and Roll of Fame, which hailed him as a musical and social trailblazer. Above all that, he was a quiet philanthropist, a humanitarian the kind of giver who never wanted his kind gestures in the news. The way he gave himself to music, he gave himself to humanity. My Diamond and Pearl, I Just can’t rap my head around your untimely passage. How? Why did it have to happen to you at such a young age when you were only getting started. But I take consolation in one of your quotes that have served as my guiding mantra ever since we met. ‘A strong spirit transcends rules’ — and nobody’s spirit was stronger, bolder, or more creative. Rest in peace beautiful soul, you were too clean to die.
RIP Prince....The world will miss you!

Actor, 'Paw-Paw' now a singer? :)
It's really not the first time a Nollywood actor would be delving into the music industry but, anytime it happens, it always gets people talking...
Comic actor, Osita Iheme posted a photo of himself on Instagram apparently having a studio session and he tagged it “testing…testing..#originalalert’’. Should Osita popularly known as 'PawPaw' release a track, he would be joining the likes of Jim Iyke, Nkem Owoh, Omotola Ekehinde and others who also released tracks while in the movie industry.
it be a comic track like that of Nkem Owoh aka Osuofia or a regular music track like any other or even one big joke! well, we just have to patiently wait and see what he has in stock for us.

Nigerian actress/model Kendra Etufunwa discusses her weight challenges
US based model and actress Kendra Etufunwa shares these lovely
photo on her social pages. The 28-year-old best known for her lead role
as the sexy and sinister Adanna, on M-Net hit TV series Jacob's Cross
also talked about her battle with Ectomorphs. The Ectomorph is a type of
body type characterised by small joints, skinny appearance, small chest
and buttocks, difficulty building muscle and low body fat. They often
complain of relentless eating with little or no weight gain. Read her
post below...
"Some of you who've been following me for a while, know of my
struggles with my weight, (been trying to gain weight for about 10
years) I would go to the gym but I was doing the wrong things. So I
finally got smart, I started yoga and I also hired a personal trainer,
who's been a tremendous help. I stay away from cardio in general, and
focus on weights, squats, lunges, planks etc to build muscle. Also, he
changed my entire eating habits, so lots of carbs and a side of protein with
EVERY meal, I've also been ordered to eat until I'm stupidly full! Less
alcohol, Lots of peanut butter/peanut butter smoothies, avocado,
assorted nuts, NO junk food, and LOTS of burgers. I know to some people
it looks crazy, but there are tons of people in my predicament
(Ectomorphs) , and because majority of people in the world are trying to
lose weight, it makes people like me feel like second class citizens
especially when researching on the Internet or at the gym training,
because most fitness information is geared towards fat loss.
Long story short, it's been a tough journey(losing or putting on weight
is TOUGH) but I love a challenge and to be honest I'm falling in love
with the results of so much hard work. My body is transforming into what
I want it to look like and that's sexy AF to know that I'm in control
of how I want my body to look like."
Goodluck girl
