Sad day for Nollywood. Prolific director Amaka Igwe passes on @51

Foremost producer, writer, director and a leading player in the Nigerian motion picture industry, Amaka Igwe has passed on. She died last night April 28th in Enugu after an asthma attack. Mrs Igwe had gone to Enugu in company of her husband for pre-production preparations for a new Igbo soap when the sad incident occurred.

She suffered an asthma attack and was immediately rushed to the hospital after initial intervention had failed but sadly died before getting there.  

Mrs Igwe is survived by her husband of 21 years Charles Igwe, three children, an aged mother. So sad! May her soul rest in peace...amen. Continue...

Born Amaka Isaac-Ene, the deceased was an accomplished writer, producer, director, entrepreneur and teacher. 

She is the founder of BoBTV Expo, founder and CEO of Top Radio 90.9FM, Amaka Igwe Studios, and the newly-launched Q Entertainment Networks. 

A visionary and pioneer of modern Nigerian TV drama and film, she hit national limelight as the writer and producer of award-winning TV soap 'Checkmate' and its off shoot 'Fuji House of Commotion'. 

Her Nollywood projects include RattleSnake and Violated - two critically-acclaimed movies that set apart Amaka Igwe Studios in the much-criticised Nollywood industry.  

Amaka Igwe studied Education/Religion at the University of Ife (Now Obafemi Awolowo University). She had a Master's Degree from the University of Ibadan. She had her early education at All Saints School (Now Trans Ekulu Primary School), Girls High School Awkunanaw, Enugu and Idia College, Benin. 

She worked as a lecturer at the Anambra State University of Technology and briefly in oil and Gas, before settling for the motion picture industry.

George Clooney Engaged! Girlfriend Amal Alamuddin Spotted Wearing Huge Bling

Hollywood’s most famous bachelor, George Clooney, is finally ready to take another walk down the aisle. RadarOnline.com has confirmed that the Monuments Men star is engaged!

His British girlfriend of the last six months, Amal Alamuddin, has been twice spotted this week wearing some major engagement bling.

The couple was seen celebrating with friends at an L.A. restaurant Wednesday night, reports People. On Thursday, they dined with good pals Cindy Crawford and her husband Rande Gerber, who is also Clooney’s business partner, and both times witnesses reported seeing Alamuddin wearing a sizable engagement ring.

Clooney was married to actress Talia Balsam from 1989 to 1993 but since then has been famous for a series of beautiful arm candy.

However, unlike his last several girlfriends, including Elisabetta Canalis and Stacy Keibler , who were models or reality stars, Alamuddin is a lawyer and United Nations adviser. She is said to relate to him more about his humanitarian and political endeavors than his Hollywood successes.

Is Kanye West Allegedly Seeing Another Woman Other Than Kim Kardashian ???

Kim Kardashian and her fiancé Kanye West’s is in the news for the wrong reasons this time. There are reports of a relationship between Kanye and his 17 years old  protegee, Pia Mia, the sexy singer even bragged on Instagram about being the “other woman!”

Pia Mia, born Pia Ajdba Mia Perez, wrote on her Instagram on April 24 that the trailer for the upcoming movie The Other Woman was the “story of my life … #OtherWoman,” she wrote in a paid post for the movie starring Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton.

And her fans were quick to call her out for apparently stirring up drama with Kardashian, 33.

Read some of the comments below.

“I wonder if @kimkardashian knows ur the ‘other woman’,” @summerkillacali wrote.

And @avavavavava added, “Wtf Pia Mia you sneaky b***h.”

A source close to Kanye said, “Kanye is producing some tracks for her and he’s quite involved. He believes she could be the next Rihanna.” 

“Kanye has made it clear to everyone that their relationship is strictly creative,” the insider said. But as they’ve grown closer, and the teen has become one of his trusted advisors, their relationship has raised eyebrows.

 “Kanye’s creative team was pretty shocked that he would use a teenager as his confidante [on his line with APC],” the insider said. “And Kim was actually kind of agitated by it, because he doesn’t usually want her input on design stuff. She was a little jealous.”
