The Biography Of Poe (Nigerian Rapper “LadiPoe Eso”) [Age, Life Profile & Net Worth]

http://ift.tt/2laUgHc

LadiPoe Eso popularly known as Poe, is a Nigerian rapper, singer, songwriter and producer. He is currently signed to Mavin Records.

Poe was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria.

When people meet him they do not think he is a rapper, instead they believe he is either an engineer, philosopher, or doctor.

He has intellectual conversations with people he meets which is why people think he is something other than a rapper.

He started getting into music when he started going to college. He went to a college in North Carolina. He met a guy named Jeff that would produce beats, and one day he asked if he could write lyrics for his beats. Poe had no music experience at the time, but he decided to give it a try. His friend Jeff ended up liking his verse. Later he got into music when he formed a group named “Lyrically Equipped” with his friends Jeff and Kurt.

He began to get better at his music when he was in the group.

He was inspired by groups named Little Brother, Slum Village, and Lupe. By hearing those groups, he was fascinated by the creativity of their wordplay. He would use his imagination to come up with his lyrics.

When Poe graduated from college he knew he wanted to continue with his music career. His mother helped introduce him to a guy named Tec from SDC. They played each other songs they had made separately and they automatically clicked and began working together. When he started writing music with “Show Dem Camp (SDC) that is when people started noticing him and really wanting to know more about him and listen to his music.

Although he was not officially part of (SDC) people believed that he was which got him noticed. He is an independent rapper, but he does say that working with (SDC) opened a lot of doors for him. He is grateful for the opportunity to work with them because they are like family to him.

In an interview with AHHB, Poe revealed his background and how he started his music career, he have these to say;

“Well. I was born and raised in Lagos, Nigeria. It’s my home. My family, for the most part, is here. But I didn’t discover ‘my music’ until I was in school. ‘Till college. I had made friends with this called Jeff, and he played me some beats and for some reason I asked if I could write to them. You have to understand, that I had zero experience making music. I was the one growing up that would jot down Naughty by Nature verses and recite them like they were mine. So it was bizarre for me to ask Jeff to lemme write to his beat. I guess I was just moved by what I heard.

It’s ironic, because now that’s what I aim to do with the music I make – move people.

College was in North Carolina, USA

At first I teamed up with my boy Jeff and another guy called Kurt aka KSwiss.

He was a white boy with too much soul.

We formed this group called Lyrically Equipped or LEQ. It’s with them I really honed my skills and got better at rapping.

The fundamentals and all that.
I used to listen to groups like Little Brother, Slum Village, and Lupe. That’s where I got this fascination with wordplay. Forget punchlines – that’s just a side thing. Word play and imagination are what drew me in
But I’d say I didn’t get noticed till I came home and started with Show Dem Camp.

With SDC that’s when people started asking “who is Poe?””

On 28 February 2017, he got signed to Mavin Records.

3-yr-old kidnapped in Lagos, sold thrice, rescued in Aba

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

By Evelyn Usman

LAGOS—The three-year-old girl kidnapped by her mother’s apprentice, Grace John, who had resumed five days earlier at their Alagbado shop in Lagos two months ago, was found in Abia State, weekend.

The little girl, as reliably gathered, had been sold to three different buyers in the eastern part of the country for prices ranging from N500,000 to N600,000.

Vanguard gathered that after her abduction, she was taken to the kidnappers’ den, a forest in Badagry area of Lagos, from where her abductors proceeded to Onitsha, Anambra State, where she was sold to a woman for N500,000.

Dissatisfied with the choice of a baby girl, the first buyer, with an undisclosed identity, was said to have sold the girl to another buyer for N500,000 in Awka, Anambra State capital. The second buyer, in turn, sold the child to another man in Umuahia, Abia State capital for N600,000.

The hunt

Information at Vanguard’s disposal revealed that operatives of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad, FSARS, Lagos State Police Command, traced Grace to Badagry area of Lagos, where she was arrested.

Her arrest led the operatives to the eastern part of the country, where the missing child was found on Sunday.

Vanguard gathered that some gunmen, who intended to sell the child to a fourth buyer, dropped her close to a Catholic Church, amidst gunshots, unknown to them that FSARS operatives had cordoned off the area.

However, the operatives, as gathered, could not respond for fear of hurting the toddler.

Police sources hinted that “we used Grace as bait to get the first buyer in Onitsha. She called the buyer on phone and told her that she had a ‘trouser,’ which is a codename for a male victim.

“The woman came to meet her at a bus stop, where she was apprehended. She led us to the second buyer, who in turn, led us to the third, who was also about to sell her. So far three persons have been arrested.”

Parents thank Vanguard, police

As at 5p.m. yesterday, the baby’s elated parents were still at the Abia State Police Command. Speaking with Vanguard, her father, Mr. Elesh Adebiyi, said: “We give God praise and also thank Vanguard for the assistance rendered.

“Our daughter is hale and hearty. We are grateful to FSARS and the Nigeria Police in general. This feat has further re-affirmed my confidence in the Force.”

Recall that the baby’s unsuspecting mother, Mrs Oluwatobiloba Adebiyi, allowed her daughter to follow Grace, who was going to buy snacks, after efforts to pacify the child, who was crying then, failed.

However, apprehension set in moments later, after an endless wait for Grace and the baby to return. Grace could not be reached on her phone as it was switched off.

Since her abduction, the parents were not contacted for any ransom, suggesting that it was not a case of kidnapping, until the arrest of Grace, who was said to be planning for another operation elsewhere.

Poor revenue performance of 2016 budget condemned

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

By Joseph Erunke
ABUJA—THE Senate, yesterday, berated the poor performance of independent revenue generation in the 2016 budget, which caused receipt of only N393 billion, against the projected sum of N1.506 trillion.

To this end, the Red Chamber observed that since the economic indices that led to the development were still available, there was no need for government to either maintain or raise the amount in the 2017 budget.

The position of the Senate was conveyed through the Chairman, Senate Committee on Finance, John Owan Enoh, when the Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun; Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed and Director-General, Budget Office, Mr Ben Akabueze, appeared before his committee not only to defend the proposal for the 2017 independent revenue but also to review the performance of this aspect of the budget in the last fiscal year.

Enoh, who was angry that of a whopping projected sum of N1.506 trillion, only a negligible N393 billion was realized, advised government to review the class of the budget downward since the bandied figure, according to him, is u

But the Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun, defended the amount in the 2017 fiscal year, disclosing that certain indices hampered the independent revenue generation in the previous year.

“The fact that we were expected to get N1.5 trillion and ended up getting N393 billion needs self-examination to determine whether that kind of budget is a workable budget or not.”

Speaking also, the Director General, Budget Office, Ben Akabueze, explained that the Federal Government’s 2017 independent revenue was being reduced from the highly optimistic level of N1,505.88 billion to an earlier figure of N1,207.57 billion.

He said it was later revised downward to N807.57 billion, reflecting poor level of collection and remittance of independent revenue by Ministries, Departments and Agencies, MDAs, and government-owned enterprises.

2016 GDP in annual 25-yr low, as recession eases out

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J

By Emeka Anaeto & Emmanuel
ABUJA — The size of Nigeria’s economy measured by the Gross Domestic Product, GDP, for 2016 recorded a contraction by -1.51 per cent.

Though this figure shows an improvement quarterly with fourth quarter 2016 (Q4‘16) at -1.3 per cent against -2.24 per cent in Q3’16, it is Nigeria’s first negative annual GDP growth rate since 1991, ending a 25-year run of modest GDP growth rate. Nigeria’s highest GDP growth rate remains 14.6 per cent, recorded in 2006.

The GDP had skidded into negative territory since Q2‘16 when negative growth began culminating into a recession officially in the Q3’16. With the Q4’16 the economy remains in recession but has indication of a reversal of the declining trend which started since 2015.

On absolute figures, in the Q4’16, the total value of goods and services in the economy in real terms, declined to N18.3 trillion from N18.5 trillion in same period, 2015.

Quarter-on-quarter, real GDP increased by 4.09 per cent, which partly reflects seasonal factors as well as a rise in the general price level.

Nigeria’s real GDP is now about N67.9 trillion while nominal GDP is about N94.1 trillion.

According to the National Bureau of Statistics, NBS, the 2016 full year figures reflected a difficult year for Nigeria, which included weaker inflation induced consumption demand, an increase in pipeline vandalism, significantly reduced foreign reserves, a concomitantly weaker currency, and problems in the energy sector such as fuel shortages and lower electricity generation.

Oil sector

The NBS stated: “For the full year 2016, oil production was estimated to be 1.833mb/day, compared to 2.13mb/day in 2015. This reduction has largely been attributed to vandalism in the Niger Delta region.

“As a result, the sector contracted by -13.65 per cent; a more significant decline than that in 2015 of -5.45 per cent. This reduced the oil sectors share of real GDP to 8.42 per cent in 2016, compared to 9.61 per cent in 2015.”

Presidency thumps up economy team

At the backdrop of the quarterly GDP trend, the Presidency has declared that the economy has reversed negative trend, adding that the recession had bottomed out.

Reacting to the NBS report, yesterday, the Presidential Adviser on Economic Matters, Dr. Adeyemi Dipelu, stated: “These figures reflect the slow-down in the economy for most of 2016 but also show that the recession may have bottomed out because of an improving trend in several key sectors.

“Although the oil sector declined by -12.38 per cent on a year on year basis, this was a relative improvement compared to the third quarter when the decline amounted to -22.01 per cent.

“This outcome was due mainly to increases in production such that the quarter on quarter growth for the oil sector between the third and fourth quarters was 8.07 per cent.”

“The non-oil sector however declined by 0.33% after showing some resilience in the third quarter when it grew by 0.03% at the height of the recession.

“Agriculture grew at 4.03% in the fourth quarter of 2016 which was a marginal decrease from the 4.54% growth in the third quarter.   This is mainly because agriculture (especially crop production, which accounts for the bulk of agricultural production) is highly seasonal, with growth in the third quarter of the year usually higher than the others.

“Nevertheless, the overall outcome for the year was that the agricultural sector grew by 4.11% for the whole of 2016 which was higher than the figure of 3.72% for 2015.

“The manufacturing sector actually grew on a quarter on quarter basis by 1.89% but declined over the year by 4.32% reflecting the problems that the sector faced in the course of the year due to a combination of factors including the depreciation in the exchange rate and higher energy costs.

“The metal ores sub-sector grew by 7.03% in Q4 of 2016 as compared to 6.93% in the last quarter of 2015, thus justifying the priority that the Federal Government continues to give to solid minerals.

“The services sector, which accounted for 53.55% of GDP in 2016, experienced a decline in growth by -0.82% over the year as compared to a growth of 4.78% in 2015.   This slowdown in the services sector arose from generally fragile economic conditions.   This is because its fortunes depend to a large extent on consumer spending and government expenditure which were both adversely affected by difficult economic conditions.

“Nevertheless, the Social Investment Programme of the Federal Government and the relatively high level of infrastructural spending in late 2016 as well as 2017 capital spending plans should begin to have a multiplier effect on the economy.

“The trend in nearly all the sectors showed a growth improvement in nominal terms although such effects were outweighed by inflationary factors.   The expectation is that this trend and the slowing down of month-on-month inflation will enable an early return to positive growth in the economy.

“This positive trajectory will also receive a boost from the positive news emerging from other parts of the economy. Notable in this regard is the release of the Economic Recovery and Growth Plan by the Federal Executive Council which sets the stage for further fast-tracking of recovery and economic diversification.

“In the same vein, the likely early passage of the 2017 budget estimates would also lend further momentum to economic growth.

“Similarly, the recent bond issue of US$1 billion which was subscribed by almost 8 times will reinforce the trend of increasing reserves. Indeed, foreign reserves rose from $23.9 billion in October 2016 to $27.8 billion in January 2017.

“Furthermore, there is a better outlook for revenues from the petroleum sector with revenues set to increase with oil production now over 2m barrels per day while oil prices holding relatively steady at an average of about $55 per barrel.

“This improved outlook for the oil and gas sector is closely linked to the on-going engagement and dialogue between the Federal Government and various communities in the Niger Delta.

“Overall, the Nigerian economy performed better than expected even though we are still in the early stages of recovery. It is indeed noteworthy  that overall 2016 growth was higher with a contraction at -1.5% than the -1.8% predicted by the IMF.”

Alia Bhatt Just Called Her Dad A Liar!…Read full details

http://ift.tt/2hEWEjc

A BFF moment with daddy

A post shared by Alia ✨⭐️ (@aliaabhatt) on Oct 4, 2016 at 12:28am PDT

//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js

Alia Bhatt is currently one of the most successful actresses in Bollywood. She has proved her mettle time and again, and this 23 year old only gets better with each film she does. Sometimes, it’s hard to believe that she’s achieved so much as the tender age of just 23. Definitely an inspiration for all the girls out there! Alia has always spoken about the special bond she shares with her filmmaker father Mahesh Bhatt.

It’s only natural when you have a filmmaker as talented as Bhatt and an actress as amazing as Alia, people will want to see them collaborate together on a film. The two have time and again been asked if and when Mahesh will direct her and he always says soon. Rumours also suggest that Alia will soon be seen in a Bhatt home production. So, at a recent event when the actress was asked about these plans, here’s what she told Pinkvilla.

We do talk about it. It will happen eventually. And I believe that patience is the key to happiness.

When asked how how she feels about her father always praising her work, she hilariously said this.

He lies. I just met him and told him, “Stop lying to these journalists!” Everybody is asking me, “Bhatt Sahab ne yeh kaha woh kaha.” That’s not at all true. Then he smiles and says, “But yeah, you are a star, a lot of people want to work with you.” That’s not true, he is lying. I will call him up right now and make him speak to you people.

Hahaha. Awww! We love that Alia is daddy’s little girl! ❤
