Dr Sid and Davido Arguing Over D’Banj (Leaked Conversation)

Leaked Conversation 1And the Mo’hits Saga Continues… Above is a link to a surprise audio recording of Dr SID accusing D’Banj of negatively affecting the growth of his career by taking hype off him and everyone else in the defunct Mo’hits crew.

In a surprising twist, Davido actually sticks up for D’Banj by saying, in actuality, D’Banj is the reason why they’re well-known. He continues that since they knew Wande Coal where he went, it isn’t D’banj’s fault that they didn’t know Dr. Sid.

Word before was that the other speaker was Wande Coal, but Dr. Sid in a tweet confirmed that it was Davido, although some say he isn’t happy at the leaked convo.

D’banj has remained mute for now on the issue.

I may have one or two things to say about this new episode of the bitter break-up but… I’ll keep my opinion to myself. Let’s hear yours instead. Below’s a link to the second part of the leaked conversation Leaked Conversation 2

2013 Budget

Out of the whole boring story of the 2013 budget, this is the place that caught my eye.

“Our focus on critical economic and social sectors continues. Some of these sectors are largely driven by private sector activity, while others require a great deal of public sector support. Some key allocations are as follows: Works – N183.5 billion; Power – N74.26 billion; Education – N426.53 billion; Health – N279.23 billion; Defence – N348.91 billion; Police – N319.65 billion; and Agriculture & Rural Development – N81.41 billion.”

Why do the power and agriculture sectors have less allocation than Defence and Police?… Its actually only the health and education sectors that I can comfortably say I am ok with their allocations…oh well!
