TUESDAY BUZZ: ‘CHANGE’, LAWSUITS AND FASHION NEWS
2 YEARS OF CHANGE IN NIGERIA
On March 28th 2015, the APC leadership came into power. The opposition party, PDP, raised the question that after two years in power, is Nigeria better off or not. Many said, “this isn’t what we bargained for” while others said “it could have been worse”. That aside, we are strong and good people of this great nation and as such, we will all survive. We are becoming interested in how our leaders govern us more than ever and that’s a great start. ‘Change’ or no ‘Change’, we will all survive.

NICKI MINAJ IS NOW A MODEL
Popular international rapper, Nicki Minaj, just signed a major contract with Wilhelmina as a model. Nicki is no ordinary hip-hop queen; her fashion choices are always bold and loud. It is no wonder why she signed this contract with Wilhelmina.
She has already served as the face of some brands and has been shot by some boundary-pushing photographers, so this is no new business for her. Wilhelmina CEO, Bill Wackermann said in an interview with Vogue, “We’re thrilled to work alongside Nicki Minaj and her team. She is a style pioneer and icon.”
