BETWEEN NIKE OSINOWO-SOLEYE AND THE BOARD, MISS NIGERIA PAGEANT

She successfully revamped Miss Nigeria beauty pageant which was rested after the 2004 edition which saw Miss Edi Lawani crowned as Miss Nigeria that year, Chief Nike Osinowo Soleye has after six long years, in 2010 and 2011, staged two successive editions of the then coveted pageant.

From the news reaching us at V & nT MEDIA, the former beauty queen (Miss Nigeria, 2001), now married to Dr. Tunde Soleye, has been mandated by Daily Times Nigeria, the official brand and copyright owners of the pageant, to step aside as chief host.

 Daily Times Nigeria concluded and terminated their contractual agreement and hosting rights with Mrs Soleye as far back as November 2011, but the development was kept in hush tones while the reasons was not made public.

Former Chief Host, Chief Nike Osinowo-Soleye is yet to be replaced, little wonder why the pageant might suffer a setback this year.

We were forced to fly the faulty plane - Dana Air official

An official of Dana Airlines who pleaded anonymous confirmed that the ill-fated Dana plane had persistent history of faults with its hydraulics in recent times and it was not supposed to have flown. 
She said the plane developed fault after it left Lagos and stopped in Calabar.
Throwing caution to the winds, the Indian owners of the airline insisted that the plane must fly in a bid to maximise profit, thereby sending the plane over to Abuja to pick passengers, when it should have being returned to Lagos for further repair. Listen to her above...
