It's not much but enjoy...
Timaya's interview in Encomium by Femi Oyewale
I'm a huge fan of Timaya's music. I think he's very talented. I've never read any interview he granted until now...kinda enjoyed it...maybe you will too. Check it out...
Some people say you are violent, while others allege you are a militant, is it true?
Timaya "I used to have that arrogant look. At times I do it on purpose by 'boning' my face. When people hear of Timaya, they look forward to one matured boy, but if they notice that I am a small boy, they may want to take me for a ride, thus, by my expression, they will think I am tough"
There is the Bisi Ibidapo Obe Saga, we heard you promised to beat her up. What happened?Timaya "It wasn't really a threat. I only said I will slap her. She lied. I am not forming. I went for AY Live and Ali Baba too was around. I was performing and I requested that a
lady should come on stage to dance with me. She came out by herself and danced with me. After the dance I went to grotto while she left with Princess (the Comedian). (There was then a rumour that they were dating). I was shocked when I read the report. I got her number from Princess and called her, she denied the story. I said let’s go to the press together because I have a girlfriend and our names are at stake. Imagine a Yoruba actress, not even a Nollywood actress”
It was also alleged that she was pregnant
Timaya “That’s not true. She’s in London at the moment”

You are reportedly violent and a militant. A case study was when you almost beat up a photographer
Timaya “How will you feel having a nice time at a club and all of a sudden you saw a flash? I was only being conscious because he was not putting on Encomium tag. I didn’t fight them, I only said, delete it! I told Njamah to pretend as if she was kissing me so as to know who actually took the pictures. He fell for the bait and I seized the camera.
Who is Empress Njamah to you?
Timaya “She’s just a friend”
Timaya is such a character... :)

Quote of the day
Culled from Obama's speech to Ghana's parliament, on Saturday July 11, 2009.
"I am speaking to you at the end of a long trip. I began in Russia, for a Summit between two great powers. I traveled to Italy, for a meeting of the world's leading economies. And I have come here, to Ghana, for a simple reason: the 21st century will be shaped by what happens not just in Rome or Moscow or Washington, but by what happens in Accra as well.
This is the simple truth of a time when the boundaries between people are overwhelmed by our connections. Your prosperity can expand America's. Your health and security can contribute to the world's. And the strength of your democracy can help advance human rights for people everywhere."
Weep not Nigerians. Hopefully one day Obama will say the same thing about our country. If only we can get our current leaders to resign, buy a farm somewhere in their villages and leave us alone :-)
One na one day sha!
Later people...
Kisses!
