FG sets to turn national theatre in iganmu to an hotel

The 37-year-old National Theatre in Iganmu, Lagos Mainland is to be convertedinto a five-star hotel.
Minister of Tourism, Culture and National Orientation Edem Duke has given a two-week quit notice to Federal Government agencies at the facility.
Some of the agencies are National Council for Arts and Culture; Nigeria Gallery of Arts; National Troupe of Nigeria and an unnamed agency.
But some stakeholders have rejected the plan, especially the sudden quit notice given to the agencies.
They are saying the Federal Executive Council did not approve the proposal and that a transaction advisor was appointed without due process.
Other stakeholders also see the plan as an attempt to short-change the Southwest.
The theatre was inaugurated on September 30, 1976 by the then Military Head of State, General Olusegun Obasanjo.
It was opened five months before the hosting of the 2nd World Black and AfricanFestival of Arts and Culture (FESTAC '77) in January/February 1977.
The Federal Government unfolded their plan on march18 through a letter to some agencies in lagos

REVEALED-wizkid is still signed to eme records

While partying with 2face in Dubai, Banky W in an exclusive interview had this to say: "It's all bad belle people, they think there may be bad news and when you don't give them thatnews they start to create it because bad news sells more than good news.
First of all (go down low...lol), there was no twitter fight, people go online and use photoshop to create my profile and then theygo and create Wizkid's profile and say he saidthis and that - even when it never happened. What happened is that we have been working on Wizzy's project to make it work internationally and when you are getting to that level, things change. He has his own ideaof what he wants to do andwe are in 100% support of that and these were the things wedreamed of back in 2009 when I signed him....Wizkid is tryin to form his own jes like mine "how does it work for him to have star boy entertainment and still be part of E.M.E" he said, "I would give you a fantastic example, Kanye West has GOOD MUSIC and he is still with Rock Nation, ROCKAFELLA...I rest my case"
