GOOD BYE, UNIVERSITY OF LAGOS

Following the Federal Government announcement to change the name of University of Lagos to Moshood Abiola University, in honor of the late politician. Students of the institution are protesting the change.
Some University of Lagos State students vented their anger through Hot 98.3fm's "Hot Campus Live" Correspondent, Deji Adeoba. They were disappointed at the sudden decision.
Reports have it that there is a protest going on in their school compound presently.

Today, May 29th, 2012 happens to be the 13th year of democracy and also a day the University of Lagos students will never forget in a hurry.
University of Lagos over 50 years of swag lost in just one day. {GREAT MOSHOODITES}

MEATY GAGA


Guess you guys can remember the piece of prime cut couture that Lady Gaga unveiled at the 2010 MTV video Music Award. Well, turns out the concept hasn't been put out to pasture just yet. Lady Gaga tweeted a photo of herself, taken by infamous fashion photographer Terry Richardson, performing in a similarly themed, but shorter and tighter meat dress at her Born This Way Ball show on May 10 in Tokyo, Japan. To garnish it off, the superstar performed her song "Americano" while flanked by pretty fake-looking, albeit shudder-inducing animal carcasses.

PRESIDENT OBAMA SUPPORTS GAY MARRIAGE


President Barack Obama today became the first sitting president to announce support for same-sex marriage, making his position on the subject clear.
His history-making embrace of gay marriage could send far-reaching political aftershocks through a presidential campaign defined by voter concerns about the economy but likely decided by slivers of the electorate in a handful of battleground states.
A Democratic senator who supports Obama's re-election as well as gay marriage told Yahoo News that the president could face "significant electoral risk" if his announcement is merely a check-the-box exercise with no follow-through.
Richard Socarides, a leading gay activist who served as President Bill Clinton's top adviser on issues like same-sex marriage, said Obama "can help build a national consensus."

But really what do i feel about this? I think this is just pure STRATEGY...if you know what i mean.

BOB MARLEY LINGERS ON


Tomorrow marks the 31st anniversary of the death of music legend Bob Marley. The Jamaican reggae star died young in 1981, at just 36 from cancer, leaving behind a legacy that reaches across all musical genres, ages and around the world.
The New Zealand International Film Festival, which happens to be the country's biggest annual celebration of cinema will be screening the acclaimed music documentary Marley.
The 2012 festival, which starts in Auckland on July 19 and in Wellington a week later, won't have its final programme finalized until next month.
But organizers say Marley, which debuted at the Berlin Film Festival earlier this year, is confirmed to screen.

But given the reggae legend's enduring place and influence (especially in New Zealand) Marley is sure to attract big numbers.
The film is directed by Oscar-winning Scottish director Kevin Macdonald. Though he wasn't first choice to make Marley. When American producer Steve Bing negotiated the music rights for a Marley film, the original idea was that Martin Scorsese would make the movie. Bing had produced and financed Scorsese's Rolling Stones doco, Shine a Light.
The full film festival programme is due out on June 27.

TYLER PERRY STUDIOS CATCH FIRE

Was shocked when i heard a large fire broke out at Tyler Perry Studios in Atlanta Tuesday evening, requiring more than 100 firefighters to respond to the scene.
The cause of the fire is under investigation,  No injuries were reported and the extent of the damage is not known.
Well funny enough Tyler Perry's huge studio complex in Atlanta, Georgia is still standing after four-alarm fire.

The Why Did I Get Married? filmmaker's complex -- a 200,000 square-foot studio, five sound stages and 400-seat theatre -- caught fire before 9 p.m., but no injuries were reported, and the structure of the largest building there remains intact.







Perry surveyed the blaze and spoke with fire department officials, but has not yet released a comment about the fire.
Tyler Perry Studios was moved into the 200,000-square-foot Atlanta facility in 2008, according to the “Madea” director’s Web site. The site houses five soundstages, a theater, a post-production facility and a back lot, as well as a chapel, pond and gym.
