Woody Allen’s adopted daughter recounts years of sexual abuse by the legendary director
The 28 year old who is now married described in vivid and horrifying detail how Allen sexually molested her from age 7. Dylan recalled how her abuse started and how it went on for a while. She then talks about her difficulties growing up with almost no one believing her, a victim, and everyone loving and praising Allen, a molester.
Farrow split from Allen in 1992 when she found out he was having an affair with another daughter, Soon-Yi who she adopted from Korea in 1978. She reported the sexual relationship between Allen and Soon-Yi and also filed charges that Allen had molested their daughter Dylan, then 7 years old. Allen denied the charges and was never prosecuted. Allen went on to marry Soon Yi in 1997.

"Pastor Ajanaku would not have died if he had greeted me' - Guru Maharaj Ji
When asked what his take is on the impression that his faithfuls are criminals, Guru Mahaj Ji saids
"That is the work of people who wouldn't stop at anything in running you down. Take for instance Olanrewaju Adepoju is one of them, Pastor Ajanaku even Okotie. Many of them who distorted the truth that Maharaj Ji is this and that and they believe in it without even knowing that it is a trap. Even Idahosa, where are they today? Yes they offended the holyspirit that sent me here. The bible says know the truth and tell the truth. I remember when I went for a programme at NUJ Press Centre Ibadan and I met late Pastor Ajanaku, If he had said "goodmorning o Guru, that boy wouldnt have died. The moment he met this light and the light was for him to be saved. I want to tell you that things that are happening on the planet are not coincidence, it has been planned by the creator. If one abide with one mind, one will always escape the dangers and that was it. Things that he is not supposed to say, he started saying it and the problem started".
Chika Ike talks about her recent extravant trip to the U.A.E
"Whose money? Is it not the money I worked hard for? Did anybody give me? I have worked hard and I deserved every bit of the luxury I enjoyed over there and I can proudly say that. I will do it over and over again because I deserve it.She also stayed in one of the world's most expensive palace - the Emirates Palace Hotel.

Why Genevieve Nnaji and Omotola Ekeinde are jobless - Obi Emelonye
“Genevieve and Omotola are the two biggest actresses we have in Nollywood, they cannot afford to charge less than their status and that is where the problem comes in. Their charges are probably above what the industry can afford. Their charges are like half of the entire production budget so which producer can afford that?”They seem to be making a lot of money now tho..are they really affected?
What they can do now as it is with other big stars all over the world, is that they should begin to fund their own productions and act in them, they can act whatever role will enhance their brand, they need to start a production company now, and push themselves because they need to remain relevant and must not be seen as jobless. If corporate bodies perceive them as jobless they won’t want to do business with them, they might even price them cheap.”
