They MUST-READ: Olakunle Churchill, Linda Ikeji, Oluwaseun Osewa (Nairaland) Dabola Williams, Ubi Franklin, Others Top 60 Young Entrepreneurs In Nigeria & Ghana


They do not have age on their side for the necessary needed experience, they are young but upwardly mobile and on top of their games. These young men and women have taken their destinies in their hands, defying all odds, to become their own bosses, despite the harsh economic terrain they operate on in Ghana and Nigeria.
Meet Pleasures Magazine’s Top 60 Young Ghanaian and Nigerian Entrepreneurs, carefully selected from across various business sectors, ranging from Real Estate to Technology, Oil & Gas, Media, Fashion, Food, Financial Services and Consultancy, amongst others. The listing presented is in no particular order.
1. Debola Williams, Nigerian – Red Media Africa

31 – year old Debola Williams is a media personality and co-founder of RED (owner of Red Media Africa, YNaija.com, The Future Awards Africa, StateCraft Inc amongst others). He has built a fantastic profile for himself in the past few years, having played a major role in the re-branding of President Muhammadu Buhari for the 2015 general election and the election campaign of President Nana Akufo Addo of Ghana. At the age of 17, he began co-presenting Youth Talk on NTA Network. He was also presenter and associate producer on a business television show, Economy Watch, also on the NTA.
At 19, Adebola moved on to be full time producer of rave TV show Nigeria International, beamed on AIT International, NTA Network, Ben TV in London, Silverbird TV, MBI and online on NigeriaVillageSquare.com
In this role, he was responsible for highlighting Nigerian life around the world from a balanced perspective, getting hard interviews from the ‘high and mighty’ and discovering exquisite locations across the country. The show pioneered as well the trend of celebrity presenters every week. He left the employ of the show after a successful 3-year run to concentrate full time on Red Media Africa, though he has retained a position as consultant producer.
As Operations Director of The Future Project, he has spearheaded the Town Hall meetings and Roadshows around Nigeria and internationally, in the UK and
Ghana. He is also responsible for the smooth running of the post-awards seminars and conferences.
Adebola was selected as one of the Top 100 of Our Generation by Top 100 UK in 2007 and 2008 as well as a Global Changemaker by the British Council in 2009, attending the Changemakers Conference and World Economic Forum in Cape Town. In 2010, he was invited as a youth expert by the Africa Union and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) to work on the African Youth Charter for the decade of youth in Zimbabwe.

2. Oluwaseun Osewa, Nigerian – (Nairaland)
Named by Forbes Magazine as the best African entrepreneur under 30 in 2013, Osewa, like many other entrepreneurs, has a compelling start-up story. Prior to the launch of his popular Nairaland.com on the 25th of March, 2005, he had attempted to start a web – hosting business but which failed for lack of viable income.
The 33-year old Nigerian thereafter, took time off to research a viable online business idea and, as fate would have it, the idea of Nairaland was birthed as a general purpose discussion forum, with a bias towards issues of interest to Nigerians.
Today, Nairaland is adjudged one of the most popular Nigerian websites.

3. Aisha Ayensu, Ghanaian, Christie BrownAisha Ayensu, 30, is the founder and Head Designer of Christie Brown, an internationally – acclaimed luxury women’s fashion label that subtly infuses modernism into carefully selected traditional African fabrics to create awe-inspiring dresses with a transcontinental finish.

4. Ogunlana Olumide and Chukwuwezam Obanor
( PrepClass)
Olumide and Obanor, both 24, are the founders of PrepClass – a Nigerian academic solutions provider offering online test prep software, full-length tests, and a CBT (Computer Based Testing) experience similar to that of Nigerian university pre-entry exams. PrepClass provides in addition, personalized home tutors in Lagos, Nigeria, skilled at meeting individual academic needs. The company has been funded by CRE Venture Capital and the Venture Garden Group.

5. Bankole Cardoso (Easy Taxi Nigeria)
27-year-old Bankole Cardoso is the founder of the Nigerian operations of EasyTaxi, a taxi mobile App that was developed in Brazil in 2012 by German technology start-up incubator, Rocket Internet GmBH.
Born and raised in Lagos, Cardoso proceeded to Boston College, where he studied Business Management, majoring in accounting. After studying and working abroad for several years, he decided to move back home to pursue a business idea that came to him while he was living in New York.
Like it was in New York City at a time, he discovered that there was some sort of difficulty in hailing taxis at one’s convenience in Lagos, despite the availability of a reasonable number of taxis. He brought the safety concerns of the average Lagosian also into consideration. Cardoso felt that Easy Taxi could bring a solution to this inherent need and create a more efficient method of hailing taxis, just as was practiced in New York City.
The young Nigerian don was featured in CNN’s Africa Start-up in 2014 and has been named by Forbes as one of the 30 Most Promising Young Entrepreneurs in Africa for Year 2014.

6. Olakunle Abiodun Churchill, Nigerian – Big Church Group

Young, daring, extraordinarily talented and absolutely unapologetic when following his passion until it translates into reality. These are just some of the rare qualities Olakunle Abiodun Churchill, one of Nigeria’s youngest and most successful entrepreneurs possesses. He had to have such rare qualities to be able to transform a passion for IT into a multi-solution solving company.
Churchill is the Chief Executive Officer, CEO of Big Church Group. This company has two subsidiaries- Big Churchill Haven Limited and Big Church Entertainment. Big Churchill Haven Limited is an IT Solution / Total Security (software management) company, saddled with the responsibility of managing business communication, total security solutions, real estate management, printing & publishing and ICT (software/hardware) programming.
Big Church Entertainment on the other hand, is an entertainment outfit with offices in Ghana, Lagos and Abuja.
Churchill who is from Ogun state, is a man of no mean repute, an entrepreneur par excellence known for his astonishing achievements not only in Nigeria, but in Africa and globally. He has unarguably taken over the IT sector in Nigeria and beyond.
His IT/Security Company operates in over ten industries across three different countries, thus paving a way for other young entrepreneurs, to thrive in this highly competitive industry.
He is no stranger in the business, political and even the entertainment sphere. No wonder, his giant strides in ICT earned him honors last year as he was conferred with the Nigerian Goodwill Ambassador Award in recognition for his immense contribution to humanity and his charisma for delivering excellence, professionalism and notable relationships with all his stake holders.

Celebrities / Tonto Dikeh’s Erratic Behavior Almost Got Her Jailed In 2015 – Ghana Police by Afro3: 12:17pm On Mar 14, 2017
It seems the last has not been heard of the unprecedented separation of the TV goddess - Tonto Dikeh and her estranged husband - Olakunle Oladunni Churchill who happens to be one of Nigeria’s multimillionaire.

It all started as rumour but began to make sense to fans of the couple when Tonto Dikeh firstly removed her husband’s surname from her Instagram page; then followed by series of posts on her social media platforms - giving an impression of how lucky she was to have got out of the marriage alive as she accused her once darling husband of being a wife batterer.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZDu8ybn-3c

But her recent interview which has been republished by different media emphatically suggested Churchill had physically abused her, and cheated on her; sighting a period of their brief holiday in Ghana; a period during which she claimed she was physically abused and had to rush to Nigeria High Commission - naked - to seek refuge in 2015.

Tonto Dikeh, celebrity status and maintenance of 'good name'


In a society where domestic violence has taken lives of many women and left many marriages shattered, Tonto Dikeh’s accusation was not taken with a pinch of salt by fans and foes who believe no one woman deserves such a treatment in the name of marriage.

As a result of this 'confession' about her ordeal and reason for separation from her husband, she won the heart of many who sympathized with her.

But many have also criticized Tonto Dikeh for reaping what she did to others, while others accused her of intentionally denting the image of Churchill – just to have a reason to quit her marriage without having to lose fans but rather gain more sympathy and elevation in public domain as all celebrities always desire.

Some have also asked why a woman like Tonto Dikeh who once spoke gracefully of her husband, and had a child for him has decided to accused him of all wrongdoing while excusing herself from any blame that could have been responsible of the crash of the marriage.

Skyrocketing cases of Domestic Violence

According to domesticviolence.com.ng report, "28 per cent of all women, almost a third of all women in Nigeria, have experienced physical violence, a significant number in a country of almost 160 million, where almost half are women.”

How genuine are the accusations and counter-accusations


In a society where many women have suffered physical abuse, while men who faces same would rather prefer to die with it silently, it is important to dig deeper into the matter, and find out who's really bearing the brunt of abuse or lying about the whole accusation and counter-accusations.

It is in this respect that GhanaWeb decided to investigate an incident the popular actress referred to in her recent interview where she accused her estranged husband of physically abusing her in Ghana.

In a fact finding mission with a group of selected entertainment reporters, we engaged Supt. Joseph Oppong, Crime Officer at the Madina Divisional Police command who oversee the case Tonto Dikeh referred to in her interview.

In a sober manner, DSP Oppong recalled the distress call he got from the neighbourhood in one of the eyebrow estate of Accra known as Trassacco Valley.

“The incident happened on the 9th of June 2015. We got report that someone in the neighbourhood was causing damage to property, and had pulled out a pump action gun at one of the house helps who was trying to calm her down. On getting to the scene, everywhere was scattered; broken glasses, TV among other house equipment which was later valued at about $20,000.

Unfortunately, it took several of our men to bring her (Tonto) under control as she was very aggressive and appear not to be herself; as if someone is under the influence of something more powerful than her."

We brought her to the police station, and ask her to write her statement.

Even as she was doing that, she was insulting everyone. It was quite obvious she wasn’t herself. But whatever it is she took that made her behave in such erratic manner, I can’t tell."


When questioned if her accusation about Churchill responsible for the scars she got during the incident, Mr Oppong said “It couldn’t have been as a result of physical abuse from her husband, because he was not even in the house when the incident happened. This could have occurred during the period she lost control with everyone trying to calm her down and bruises from the things she damaged, because we met her in a tattered clothes when we got there."

He added that Tonto in her statement confessed to have caused damaged to Churchill’s property: “It was in this process we got to know that she had a history of behaving in such manner because her fiance then (Churchill) made us aware that she had once lost control same way she did and destroyed valuables worth $15,000 in his house.

When pressed further on what Tonto Dikeh cited as reasons for her erratic behaviour, he said “According to her statement, some ladies came to visit her fiancée, unknown to her that they are Churhill’s sister, and this made her mad in some way.”

He however debunked Tonto Dikeh’s narration that she went to the Nigeria High Commission to seek refuge after she was maltreated: “[i]Unfortunately, that’s far from the truth. After inviting her to our station, we informed the Nigeria Consular in the name of Mr. Abraham Poko; which is the right thing to do as she’s not a Ghanaian. We took her there in our own car. She was later granted bail and her fiancé later dropped the charges some two days after, if not, she would have been taken to court and probably jailed, and made to pay for the loss but Mr. Churchill confessed he has no reason for doing that to a woman she loves and intended making his wife.

This was how the charges was withdrawn and she was set free.” [/i]He said.

Tonto has however threatened to reveal more damning images, videos that'll vindicate her. But while many of her fans await the files to be published, she has already started receiving accolades from fans for speaking up about her ordeal.

While Churchill as rather chose to keep mute about his former wife’s failures; a move many regards as a matured move deserving of a responsible man who would rather choose not to wash his estranged wife's linen in the pages of newspapers or on the internet

Celebrities / Tonto Dikeh Dumps Nollywood, For Social Media Marital Drama!! (AMVCA Special) by Afro3: 7:55pm On Mar 06, 2017
It was indeed a convergence of Africa movie super stars across the continent last night as the 5th edition of the most anticipated supreme movie honour - Africa Magic Viewers Choice Awards took centre stage with the high and mighty in the corridors of power in the nollywood industry present in style. The glamorous and colourful event saw the celebration of African screen talents and skills through the award recognitions.

With the likes of creative nollywood heavy weights ‎Olu Jacobs, RMD, Desmond Elliot,  Joke Sylvia, Funke Akindele, Genevive Nnaji, Rita Dominic , Oge Okoye, Toyin Aimahku and even mother of three -Mercy Johnson putting up gracious appearance to be part of the annual Africa recognition event to celebrate the industry that gave them fame and fortune. But there is a name that put up more marital movie lead role at the moment for her fans on social media, that perhaps deserves more than others that got honoured and were recognised at that prestigious night...lol! Your guess is as good as mine!

Let's me beg to ask where is Tonto Dikeh? Is she still an actress, a house wife on the run or a charity campaigner? Well,‎ this beats our imagination to think that she suddenly disappeared from our movie screens after she got engaged and eventually married. Guess the perceived bread and butter with regards to the financial strength of her husband made her jettison the proffession that gave her name.. Since 2015, it was supposedly obviously Tonto Dikeh settled to the blissful life of a happily married woman, has built her world around motherhood.  Little wonder, the praise singing of her almighty Mr X this and My Kingkong that!!... with display of intimidating gifts from hubby coupled with her Kim Kardashian baby drama internet jamboree clouded her sense of direction.

Atlas!! We were woken up to the difficult fact that they were all lies!! Haba! Its now became a game of blackmail and disgraceful words to the Father of her child.‎ The likes of Mercy Johnson whom she apologised to, on the day she hurriedly removed her hubby name on instagram to attract sympathy, has gone ahead to nurture her family with three kids, no scandals, active in the industy and still role models to many, while Tonto Dikeh has dumped the movie industry, Turned vimpire at home with breaking of properties, celebrating blackmail against husband and acting family embarrasing movie scene on social media.

Well, Churchill we choose to reserve our comments especially on the P. A relationship scandal, supposedly sponsored though, more facts hitting out soon on the controversy surrounding it, but, one Mr. Paul has downplayed the misconstrued issue, following his appearance at the Ambassadorial Unveiling of a popular artist Praiz.‎..

Tonto Dikeh, eyes are on you, don't destroy what you have built, remain a legendary reference to the young generation....He that lives in glass house should not throw stones!!!

Celebrities / Tonto Dikeh, The Scandal And The Wild Goose Chase. - Abuja Press by Afro3: 10:50pm On Feb 24, 2017
Recently, the popular Nollywood actress (in proxy) Miss Tonto Dikeh has been chasing winds in her plights to ridicule her husband whom she claims to have engaged marital infidelity. Yes, the details of her claim on the husband’s infidelity and her skepticisms to continue with the marital engagements might seem to be news to some, but to us it’s a baseless accusation that do not really weigh waters and indeed a wild goose chase considering the situation and benefits that clouds the marriage for her.

It is clear that she is blessed with a marriage with one of Africa’s biggest ICT mogul, Olakunle Churchill who hosted one of the world’s celebrated ICT Summit in Switzerland based on researched facts. Tonto Dikeh has really experienced a dramatic turn-around; it’s been more like a realized fantasy and a miracle for her. To buttress this fact, Tonto Dikeh who was known for her creative and manipulative strength with scripts and acting despaired on her career as an actress to engage in humanitarian services because she was carried away by the extensive strength of her husbands’ charity organization.

It was recorded that she eventually founded Tonto Dikeh Foundation and used the strengths of her husband’s organization to pull the operation of hers, something that her fans and Instagram followers would not have achieved. But in the long run, she started fronting donations and charity that only God knows where she sourced the money from, all thanks to Dr. Churchill Olakunle, her supposed ex-husband.

Nonetheless, she has been felt and trended on several online and print mediums for her flamboyant spending, another thanks to her husband. But now we are sure that the road to her bankruptcy might be the next path she would take, however, a source few minutes ago confirmed to us that the popular Nollywood actress has been using their son as a bait to secure money to keep her foundation functionally relevant and a prerogative for their child’s up-keep; perhaps, these are the few ways she intends to maintain the executive lifestyle which she carelessly threw away to attract public sympathy.
Though, Churchill who she labelled with marital infidelity, has been spotted at humanitarian events with his alleged infidelity partner which explains that Tonto’s claims might have had the features of perhaps a misconstrued reaction.

According to Him, most unmarried ladies revived their marriage quest when the controversial actressed announced her marriage to Olakunle Churchill around August 2015.

Celebrities / Tonto Dikeh Blackmails Husband, Sponsors False Gist With Male Colleague by Afro3: 11:55am On Feb 16, 2017
Indeed, the marriage crisis of controversial actress Tonto Dikeh is getting heated up with the latest moves by a source close to her to ensure her husband Olakunle Churchill is portrayed in a bad light. According to exclusive information from AbujaCity News,  actress who started the marriage crashing scandal with the removal of the husband name on her instagram, was reported to have allegedly fuelled the PA and husband romance to attract public sympathy.

It was revealed according inside source, that the mother of one, boasted to her husband that she would drag his image to the mud with her overwhelming influence on social media. She threatened to bring him down on social media as the husband does not command such authority or fame on the Internet.  Her supposed determination to downplay him and his image, instigated her messy disposition in her mother- inlaw's house, where she was alledgedly accused of attacking and pushing down her mother- in law. Her 2 hours breaking of home properties was reported to be as a result of her marijuana related reactions in her family home. Which according to source was the height of embarrasing the husband faced that prompted him to travel. Tonto Dikeh, hurriedly removed her husband's name on instagram to elicit fand sympathy for her and public condemnation for the husband.

As the issue of the alleged infidelity of her husband was gradually phasing off as the accused lady refuted the claim on TV, Tonto Dikeh was fingered to have sponsored her colleague, one Uche Maduagwu of TINSEL to fire another allegation of Gay accusation, with recorded Youtube video -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeiHZteQPac    The unpopular young Actor earlier posted today that Bobrisky and Lagos designer Swankyjerry were his bae? The post was hurriedly  removed. Uche Maduagwu quickly posted again that his account was hacked to defend the earlier posted. Swankyjerry is said to be the friend to Tonto Dikeh and a family friend of the couple. The Misleading story from Uche Maduagwu attacking Churchill on Instagram was brought down by some blogs including Instagblog for its strong defaming impression.‎

The latest gist which is believed to have emanated from an online media few hours ago in a rumour capacity but consciously sponsored gossip, is the domestic violence which was alleged to be one of the reason she left the married. This seem very obvious that the excuses to justify her celebrity marriage breakup is to keep throwing stones on the husband and sacrificing her family secrecy on the alter of social media

Celebrities / Olakunle Churchill: "Tonto Dikeh Won't Pick My Calls, I Can't Reach My Son" by Afro3: 4:09am On Feb 16, 2017
Toast• Your Foundation has been in the news since last year, what is your motivation for doing this?

Churchill: Well, it's something we are passionate about. Big Church Foundation is basically designed to empower and provide charity functions. Started it from Ghana before cutting across states in Nigeria and beyond

Toast•‎ Besides What we Know, can we be privileged to get to know you in person?

Churchill : There is nothing much to know about me, My name is Olakunle Churchill, the Chairman of Big Church Group and other subsidiaries including Big Church Foundation

Toast• With your mega expenditure during your 4- day Walk For Love" charity campaign incomoration of United Nation World Disability ‎Day, calls for Concern, How is your Foundation Funded?

Churchill: Yes, that was a memorable charity event. Am glad it was successful. Atleast a lot of the physically challenged were empowered, we lectured them on how to discover ability in disability. Our income comes from favour, goodwill, besides 10% of our profit or revenue from Big Church Group is transferred to charity to the foundation charity account.

Toast •Recently, your househelp ‎or domestic staff disclosed to an online media that you had issues with wife and you have not been at home just after your December foundation project last year

Churchill:  Every family has its ups and downs but I would not want to talk about my family.

Toast• It was said that after You left home, you were Alleged of  having affair with your Female PA? 

Churchill : Well, it's funny to me, because I don't have female personal Assistant, My PA is Mr Paul, who has been working with me over the years. Besides, it was a sponsored blackmail.

Toast• Gist had it that your wife Tonto Dikeh Churchill caused uproar in your mother's home, i.e her mother- inlaw, when she was alleged to have pushed her down and broke everything in her house within 2 hours due to her marijuana reactions

Churchill: These issues are private to me and my family.

Toast: Rumour Has that because of domestic violence from you that  your wife moved out with your son?

Churchill: I wonder where they got such gist from? I don't believe my wife will say that, besides I frown against such even my foundation preach against domestic violence in some of our charity awareness campaigns. It is obvious that all these channelled attacks are targeted to drag my image and what I believe in to the mud. Well, the truth is that I have never raised my hands against my wife. I have evidence of CCTV Cameras in my mums house when this happened.It can be replayed if you what us to go that far. 

Toast: The news earlier today posted and deleted by one Uche Maduagwu that you have relationship with Bobrisky and Swanky Jerry? What is your take on that? 

Churchill:  Truly, I did not see it posted because am not a social media person, but got wind of it later. It's sincerely beats my imagination to think of such relationship...well, don't know Bobrisky but got to know Swanky Jerry through my wife. I believe whoever my wife likes as a friend, I also take as a family friend. Am too busy to think of such unpleasant issues, let alone cooking up defence.

Toast: Your Son's One Year birthday is few days from now, do you have plans to celebrate it? Guess you will be celebrating him with your wife? 

Churchill: Oh! My son, I sure miss him so much. I have planned a worthwhile birthday party for him with friends and family members but it's sad to say that all effort to reach him proved abortive,  and this is affecting my business and emotions, The mum won't pick calls and the nanny,Our son has been with the mother and not at home for now.  I truly, should not be granting this interview if this is all about my family. Am very optimistic that the family will unite together for King Andrea birthday even though channels to reach my wife is temporarily off.

Toast •How Do You perceived all these happening in your family...

Churchill ::: I see nothing in it, it's a phase of life. Since it does not affect my cheques and savings. But I truly want to call on bloggers or on social media addicts to verify facts before assuming. Every marriage has good and bad moments, it's just unfortunate that I recently discovered that the alledged marriage instability is making headlines on some media platforms. Please Tonto Dikeh fans and well wishers take it easy on her, guess she is still adjusting to motherhood. With time, it will be well.


Toast::: The news had it that your son owns his own company Kindred Realtors, a real estate firm, don't you think his is too young?

Churchill ::: (laugh), the company Kindred Realtor was actually one of my companies before I changed it to our son's name after his birth. I feel it's one of his benefit to start building up a brand for him as he grows.

Celebrities / Letter To Tonto Dikeh From Passionate Fan, Makes Shocking Revelations by Afro3: 8:27pm On Feb 11, 2017
I have been a long time passionate fan of you - Mrs Tonto Dikeh Churchill or do I remove the surname? ‎Your movies from your early days of breaking into the nollywood industry arrested attention anytime, as the toast of most industry movie directors for scripts. As one of your fans, it bleeds my heart to hear of the unpleasant stories coming from your home especially as you used your fans influence based to react at any latest provocation as if you are lead actress in a home movie.

My dearest Tonto Dikeh, we your fans are instrumental to your fame. Your marriage breakup is the prayers of some of your colleagues and those your actions have offended directly or indirectly. I expected that any challenge in your home should be kept private and away from social media. I want to believe that God blessed you with a loving husband who seem to give all you want but though, there is saying that he who wears the shoe knows where it pinches. Truly, your fans in Rivers state are proud of your height in the industry but we plead that you let sleeping dog lie.

The accusation and counter- accusations of smoking while breastfeeding, negative reactions of destroying properties and alleged infidelity from your husband - Olakunle Churchill can not be confirmed by the public. We draw our conclusion from the buzzes on social media. Beware of those you draw close as your friend especially in relation to your marriage except we will eventually write a movie script about your home, marriage and social media influence and sell to major directors like Chico Ejiro, Teco Benson, Tchidi Chikere etc with a caption " Last Celebrity Marriage" ‎

It's sad to think that the supposed settled marriage ‎crisis in your union still persist indirectly as feelers have it that you choose to subject your husband to emotional torture by taking the child - King Andrea away from him because of his affection for the little boy. My prayer is that you don't take your beloved son to another controversial Maurijuana smoker's home as attacked .My sister, which I choose to call you, please the drama upon drama in your home if true can be attributed to you going back to your old life of smoking. When you got married, we your fans were happy that you finally settled down inspite of our supposed believe of your reckless movie life but alas, it's truly a reflection of your life in marriage even when we thought motherhood has changed you. Advising you to borrow a leaf from some notable scandal free celebrity actresses would not have been good considering your status, but am forced to tell you to screen into their marital life.

My beloved super actress, the tag " controversial actress" which you got stuck with you since your early days of smoking in movies, close intimacy in ‎acting and bad girl disposition do not make us believe is your true reflection but a conscious impressive interpretation of your roles. For the sake of your son - King Andrea and the love show from your husband as posted by you each time on social media, just put your home together- indeed, it's your responsibility. We are happy the family crisis is been silient and we strongly believe there is peace at home now. Besides your peace at home, the gist of you breaking things in your mother -inlaw's house and pushing her down in attempt to calm you down is not only disgusting but embarrassingly misleading if we truly have to believe that. ‎

Well, I do not know much about your husband maybe because he is not a showbiz person but perhaps a philanthropist. But I think we might not judge him from social media stories. With time his true identity will be known, not only then we can write to him too.... value what you have which you made us believe he is your lovely Mr X, your irreplaceable Hero an‎d your protective superman.

Mama King, he that has ear let him hear, for the voices of the fans are the v‎oices of fame or destruction. 

I rest my case
