A Nigerian Bishop, Saint Dikeji Miyerijesu, has received a 2018 Lexus Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) as birthday gift.
Saint Dikeji Miyerijesu is the Bishop of God’s Grace Ministry. He is also hailed by his followers as the Bishop of the Whole World and Jesus Holiness.
According to reports from his church, Saint Dikeji Miyerijesu received the Lexus LX 570 2018 model as a gift from his children in the Lord to mark his 10 years on earth, 56 years in heaven through baptism. The SUV is valued at about N100 million.
A special service was conducted to mark the double birthday celebrations at the Ministry’s headquarters based in Warri, Delta state.
It was a star studded event as the biggest names in music came out to launch a new music streaming service Tidal which is the brainchild of Jay Z.And though there is serious money at stake that didn’t stop the rapper’s wife Beyonce from having a bit of fun with a few of her famous friends.
The 33-year-old singer was spotted backstage at the #TIDALforALL event on Monday having some fun with Rihanna, Madonna, Alicia Keys and Nicki Minaj among many others.
The launch for the service being billed as the first artist-owned platform for music and video was held at the Skylight Moynihan Station in New York City.
Beyonce had cuddled up next to legendary singer Madonna, 56, as Rihanna, 27, wrapped her arms around 34-year-old Alicia as they posed for a fun snap together.
The fun did not end there as the Drunk In Love hitmaker put on her best funny face with Alicia and 32-year-old rapper Nicki Minaj.
Other big names at the event included Usher, Daft Punk, Arcade Fire, Jack White and Jason Aldean, who were all on hand to launch as they stood side-by-side onstage as a sign of solidarity during the event.
The subscription service, unlike rivals Spotify, will not have a free tier – meaning the musicians stand to make more money from it.
Alicia Keys called the event ‘a graduation’ as she took the stage at the gala.
‘So we come together before you on this day, March 30th, 2015, with one voice in unity in the hopes that today will be another one of those moments in time, a moment that will forever change the course of music history.
‘For today we announce of Tidal, the first ever artist-owned, global music and entertainment platform,’ Keys said.
The launch came after a huge social media push, in which the stars devoted their Twitter and Facebook pages to promoting Tidal.
The mastermind behind the new system, Jay Z purchased Swedish tech company Aspiro for $56 million earlier this year to take control of Tidal.
Before the purchase in February he reportedly hosted a meeting of the music world’s biggest stars at which he lamented ‘crass commercialization’.
Daft Punk’s two members were key figures in deciding on a strategy during the meeting days before the Grammy Awards at The Fig House event space in a remote part of Pasadena, Los Angeles.
And it appears Jay Z’s business mind convinced them to open their pockets, and sign on as ‘co-owners’.

PRESIDENT-ELECT MUHAMMADU BUHARI RECEOVONG THE CONGRATULATORY CALL FROM PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN[/caption]President Goodluck Jonathan has called his arch-rival, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) to admit defeat and congratulate him on his soon-to-be announced victory at the just concluded presidential elections.
Buhari, the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, contested the elections against incumbent President Jonathan, who was seeking re-election on the platform of Peoples Democratic.
So far, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has announced results of the elections in 35 states of the federation and Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, with Borno State, the only one yet to be announced.
Meanwhile, celebrations are ongoing at the APC national secretariat in Abuja with Buhari also expected to address Nigerians.

The candidate of the APC in the just-concluded elections, Muhammadu Buhari, has issued an interim message of thanks and gratitude to Nigerians for choosing him and his party over and above the Peoples Democratic Party and its candidate, the incumbent President, President Jonathan Goodluck.
The party declared victory after Mr. Jonathan called Mr. Buhari at 5:15pm to make a concession and congratulate the winner.
A statement issued Tuesday evening by the Director Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Council, Garba Shehu, said the mood of the country as well as its current state did not warrant the type of wild celebrations reportedly going on in some cities across the country.
Mr. Buhari said anybody happy with the victory of the APC in the presidential election will not be involved in the molestation of opponents or the destruction of their property.
“He or she is not with me, whoever does that”, Mr. Buhari said.
He is due to make a major acceptance speech in the coming hours.

Nelson Mandela’s oldest grandson, who is also a member of South Africa’s parliament, was today found guilty of assaulting a motorist two years ago.
A magistrates’ court in Mthatha, in Eastern Cape province, heard charges brought against Mandla Mandela by a local motorist, who accused the 40-year-old of assaulting him during a road-rage incident.
The magistrate found Mandla Mandela guilty of assault with grievous bodily harm, and acquitted him on a charge of pointing a firearm. A pre-sentencing hearing has been scheduled for early June.
