Chika Ike's manager comes for Charles Novia after he calls her obtuse

In an article titled 'Of Flavour's flaunt, Yachting holidays and Range Rovers", which he posted on his blog yesterday, Nollywood producer and director called Chika's Ike manager, Serah Donald, obtuse, meaning dull, not sharp!. Below is what Charles wrote about Chika Ike's recent yacht trip and Serah...

"It all boils down to my point. And by the way, that picture I saw of the yacht is suspect. The damned thing looked like a cruise boat which the obtuse PA might have mistaken for a yacht though. Anyway, my point is, in this clime we live in, our so-called celebrities, coming from a background of social, material and emotional deprivation just have to force the public to know that they have arrived. So, a boat trip, a helicopter ride, a breakfast in a 3 star hotel lobby and a personal scratch on the ass must make the news at all costs’
