SEYI SHAY

Seyi Shay believes it's very possible to be a successful woman without selling yourself and for her, it pays off eventually

Consistently releasing quality music with hard work is sure enough for a female musician and with the right amount, results will definitely abound.

While answering questions on the weekly tweet chat, she openly declared she can't do without her good friends M. I, Sound Sultan and Mr.  2kay  

Seyi Shay who was the 2nd guest on the #PinkJuly initiative set up by the #kimanioffair team to celebrate women entrepreneurs who stand out amongst others is glad to say she copped the Island Records deal by getting noticed.

#PinkJuly highlights & celebrates women who have been very instrumental in the development and advancement of their professions. #KimaniOffAir

Obama’s Twitter Debut, @POTUS, Attracts Hate-Filled Posts!!

WASHINGTON — When President Obama sent his inaugural Twitter post from the Oval Office on Monday, the White House heralded the event with fanfare, posting a photograph of him perched on his desk tapping out his message on an iPhone.

But it took only a few minutes for Mr. Obama’s account to attract racist, hate-filled posts and replies. They addressed him with..

By the time he was 30, YALI Network member Prosper Egeonu decided he didn't want to see any more violence in central Nigeria’s Plateau state.
