  Police arrested rapper Nelly early Saturday after a woman said he r*ped her on his tour bus in a town outside Seattle, an accusation the Grammy winner's attorney staunchly denied. Nelly, whose real name is Cornell Iral Haynes Jr., was arrested about 4:37 a.m. Saturday in his tour bus at a Walmart, Auburn police spokesman Commander Steve Stocker said.

A lot has been said about the alleged love triangle between singer, Simi, and her colleagues, Adekunle Gold and Falz. But no one really knows how the trio actually met.   “I met Adekunle Gold while I was performing at an event centre in Lagos.

Soldier was actually my song, and when he heard it, we decided to work together on it,” she said. Speaking on her relationship status, she said, “I always like to keep my personal life away from the public. All I can say is that I am in a relationship but I just don’t want to disclose the person’s name.” On whether

The Federal Polytechnic, Ado Ekiti was on Sunday shut indefinitely following a violent protest by students over the death of two of them. Trouble began on the institution’s campus late Friday when two of the students reportedly complained of malaria. They were said to have been rushed to the Polytechnic Health Centre for treatment, but their condition later became worse. They died in the early hours of Saturday.

It was gathered from campus sources that the students on learning that their colleagues had died, quickly mobilized themselves, marched to the Health Centre and burnt it down. Apart from also destroying some other property, the stud
