**Nigerians are MISINFORMED about solid Journalism. Linda Ikeji is a blogger. A blogger is someone that maintains a weblog. I was Nigeria's FIRST BLOGGER because I help test and launch Pyra in 1999. If you don't know Pyra, Blogger came from Pyra.
**Linda Ikeji is not like my daughter. I have no daughter, I don't adopt younger similar colleagues as daughters. I stay professional. This is how you destroy your professional backgrounds in Nigeria.
**I am a Journalist and studied Broadcast Journalism NOT Mass Communications which is totally different. I have videos on YouTube and Vimeo, newscasts on Reverbnation and Soundcloud and seen on CNN, CTV, CTV, FOXNews and more as a Media Expert when I'm needed. Linda is a blogger and has no degree in neither Journalism or Mass Comm. Illiteracy in Nigerians is a disease.
**Yes, Linda Ikeji was responsible for ending the wedding ceremony of Radio Personality Dan Foster and Deola Olunloyo my cousin. After she took Deola's future husband, she eventually lost him and told the Punch her life was miserable. Linda has moved on with her life, Dan married with kids and Deola has moved on too. I had to set that straight in 2012 and some of you said u were shocked. People don't talk but I talk! I'm not into lies.

** Yes, Linda tweeted an apology to me when she reported a story about my 5 firearms wrong posting a picture of me with a wrong gun.
**Finally the story at the Nigerian Tribune is CORRECT. When I was going to do the story about the Top 10 Bloggers in Nigeria, the others selected told me they REFUSE to be on any list with Linda Ikeji and that it taints their brand. Two of those bloggers who wrote me back were Stella Dimoko Korkus, Uche from Bella Naija and others I won't mention.
**On the issue of ads on blogs, some of you say I don't get ads like Linda. Do you know why Linda's blog which focuses on entertainment is littered with ads and mine which is global news does not have ads? Wake up and learn how money is made on blogs. I sell stories, not ads. Networks pay me $500-$1000 per post as well as music artists in US/Canada. They are called sponsored stories. Nigerian companies have approached me from communications to food companies etc because I run an innovative newsroom #HNNFood #HNNPolitics #HNNTech etc. That will come soon. I am focused on my N300M studios and building a team of loyal staff and not focusing on some blogger's competition.
** Finally I do not open comments on my world news blog, I have 1.9M ppl daily and have 13 million views already and it's one year old. Linda does not have those numbers. U cannot BUY blog views as some bloggers in Nigeria buy Twitter and FB followers. don't fall for the fraud. Stella Dimoko Korkus and a fan of mine Bunmi Nasiru commented on the same thing regarding plaigarism on Linda lifting stories from others and many stars like Olamide and Toke Makinwa say she is full of malicious gossip. Nothing wrong with gossip but I write REAL Stories and gossip. If the subject calls it lies, they can get a lawyer and sue me.
That ENDS my Linda Ikeji comparison once and for all. If I decide to launch #HNNShowbiz as a more active hashtag, I will put Linda out of business. It is the fact. STOP the STUPID UNCALLED FOR COMPARISONS. Linda does her thing and I do mine. I have way more experience than her and respect her brand just like she does mine so cut the jealousy shit you always smell just to foster feuds. Only the illiterate fans do this. I don't need rhetoric, bullshit and innuendo.
