Why I Stopped Singing —Azeezat

Soul singer, Azeezat, has revealed why she stepped down her singing career for a couple of years. The singer who is popularly referred to as Queen Of Love has been off the music radar for a while but is back with a bang. Her new single, My Valentine, has  reminded fans of what they had been missing.
Azeezat told P.M.NEWS Entertainment Cafe that: “I took a little break to refresh myself, my talent and my skills. I went into publishing. I published a magazine called Hair’volution. It is the first hair and entertainment magazine in Nigeria. I’m back now, I’m working in the studio and I have already released a Valentine video called My Valentine. I’m still working in the studio and promoting the single as well”.
But Azeezat did not find publishing absolutely fascinating as she had too many managerial duties to perform. “It was something I enjoyed doing because writing is not too stressful for me, but it was the administrative aspect that was a new thing for me, not getting materials or the work done. It was stressful trying to get all the support that you need but it was a wonderful idea,” she explained.
She added that the idea to set up Hair’volution magazine was fuelled by her passion for hairdos. “Anyone who knows me knows that I love hair especially when there is a lot of creativity and ingenuity to it. I get inspiration from seeing fantastic hairstyles.”
Apart from singing and publishing, Azeezat is also a director at Copyright Society of Nigeria, COSON, the Assistant Coordinator of the Female Musicians Association of Nigeria, FEMAN, and the Managing Director of The Way To Happiness a non-government organisation.

  Abby and Brittany Hensel are conjoined twins determined to live the normal, active life of outgoing 20-somethings anywhere. They have been to university, they travel, they have jobs. But how easy is it for two people to inhabit one body?     The identical, conjoined twins from Minnesota, in the United States, have graduated from Bethel University and are setting out on their career as primary school teachers with an emphasis on maths. Although they have two teaching licences, there is one practical difference when it comes to the finances. "Obviously right away we understand that we are going to get one salary because we're doing the job of one person," says Abby.

Yinka Ayefele – “If you think I’m impotent, bring your sister”

Image
Many people still don’t believe that Gospel musician Yinka Ayefele, who had a fatal accident years back, can perform the duty of a husband in terms of procreation. But the Ibadan based singer shocked many people, when he got married and started raring children. Yinka said, “Doctors would tell you that my case is very special and rare; my case is one of a thousand cases. There are some things I may not want to say here but... "I challenge those who still don’t believe me that I can perform to come with their sisters to prove the point. What I am trying to say is that I’m fortunate to have proved the medical practitioner wrong in some aspects. They say I wouldn’t be able to have erection but the day they discovered I was able to have it was like a miracle; in fact, my consultant was shocked, I thank God for this.” So all you doubting Thomas, hope you know better now?
