"Uche Iwuji didn't use any love portion on me" - Juwon Lawal
There have been talks, you know, people just expressing their opinion,
saying that the actress used some kind of love potion to get Juwon to
marry her. I kinda find that ridiculous tho!
Anyway, Juwon says its a ridiculous notion...labeling those behind it
as lazy and irresponsible.
"Our love is real and we're made for each other. I think I have told you this before. So, I don't know what could have informed this stupid rumour. I am too busy to be listening to such things. My concern is how to grow my business, not listening to such rubbish. Please forget about anything like that."

Nigerian lady sentenced to 80 years in prison over deaths of toddlers in her care
16-month-old Elias Castillo and three other toddlers died after Tata left them unsupervised at her home while she went to a nearby store. Prosecutors say she left a pan of oil cooking atop a stovetop burner and that this ignited the February 2011 blaze. There were 7 children when the fire started, four died, three survived.
Tata still faces three more counts of felony murder in relation to the other children who died, and three counts of abandoning a child and two counts of reckless injury to a child in relation to three who were hurt. So she will be getting more years added to the 80 as other cases come up.
