Read the Review below:

FROM ME TO YOU…’a short review of the book by Seun Oloketuyi by Charles Novia
As Seun Oloketuyi turns forty years of age, his trudge down the road of success thus far for him in the media world and as an ancillary investor and stakeholder in Nollywood has been slow but successful.

As any wise person would tell you, when success stands on the stage receiving applause, after a hard won fight, on the side stage stands the actual back story, begrudgingly joining in the applause.

And what is Seun’s back story? It is one with plots and sub-plots of vision, doggedness, travails and triumph, all leading to the finale denouement of his present new age, the age where his life really begins.

In his memoirs on the journey so far, Seun Oloketuyi gives the world a book on how it all began. From his delicate years of internship at the then fledging City People Magazine where he wrote for the Arts Pages, to his journalistic junket to Hints Magazine and thereafter Fame Magazine, all these between 1998 to 2001, where the fire achieve and be his own boss were being stoked.

Capitalising on a lacuna he discovered in Nollywood on the industry having a wholly dedicated magazine for its impressive trajectory at that time, Oloketuyi decided to go fill that void in the sector by birthing at first the first directory on Nigerian Entertainment and thereafter, the now popular Best of Nollywood Awards.

In a tale which is insightful and interesting to read, in this book, Oloketuyi gives the reader glimpses and vignettes of his recent history with the Nollywood industry and his topsy-turvy interactions with the some of the practitioners. He also doesn’t fail to tell us his appreciation to those who have worked assiduously with him to make the BON brand the success it is today.

Thus, beyond the glittering lights, the Red Carpets and the award presentations, Oloketuyi reveals the incredible pains it takes to organise these events, sometimes most of them at excruciating personal costs. How he finds the strength to gather himself up from the ashes of the last hosting battle of BON is a motivational side piece of the book itself. He comes across as one who has a never-say-die spirit and takes on every challenge with a zeal which is uncanny to only him. That he gets it done every year till present is a testimony of his resilience.

It is good enough that Seun Oloketuyi has gifted the industry with this narrative and it would be good enough too that the industry and beyond reads this book, if only to support this young man whose new life is starting before our very eyes.

And as we cheer Oloketuyi on, we should marvel at how he has ingratiated himself into the lives of many in the entertainment industry and how his brand finds its niche amongst us.
The Ovation continues…

The Lagos State Police Command has arrested and detained popular social media influencer Habeeb Hamzat, popularly known as Peller, following a viral video showing him driving recklessly and crashing his vehicle during a live-stream.

According to a statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, SP Abimbola Adebisi, on Tuesday, the arrest followed public outrage over the incident, which occurred on Sunday, December 14, 2025.

In the statement, the police said the suspect’s actions posed a serious threat to public safety and warranted immediate intervention.

“The Lagos State Police Command has arrested and detained, for further investigation, Habeeb Hamzat aka ‘PELLER’, subsequent to the viral video that surfaced online on Sunday 14th December, 2025, in which he was seen driving recklessly, leading to a dangerous road crash and serious motor accident, while the incident was being live-streamed, thereby endangering his life and that of other road users”, the statement partly read.

The command described the act as extremely dangerous, stressing that such behaviour could have resulted in fatal consequences for both the suspect and innocent road users.

“His action constitutes a deliberate attempt to commit suicide and endangers the lives of other innocent people”,. the statement continued.

The police further disclosed that the matter had been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department for a comprehensive probe.

“The case is currently being investigated by the State Criminal Investigation Department (SCID). The outcome of the investigation will be made public, and the suspect will be charged to the court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the law”, it added.

The statement added that while reacting to the incident, the Commissioner of Police, Lagos State Command, CP Olohundare Jimoh, issued a strong warning to social media influencers and members of the public against exploiting online platforms to engage in unlawful conduct.

“The Commissioner of Police, Lagos State, CP Olohundare Jimoh, strongly warns social media influencers, content creators and general members of the public to desist from using social media platforms to engage in or promote reckless, dangerous, or unlawful and criminal acts”. it added.

He warned that such behaviour would no longer be tolerated and assured residents of the command’s resolve to enforce the law without fear or favour.

“Such lawlessness will not be tolerated, and the full weight of the law will be applied on any offender. The Command further urges all road users to comply strictly with traffic regulations and remains committed to ensuring public peace and safety at all times.”

The incident has reignited public debate over the growing trend of risky stunts by content creators in pursuit of online engagement, with many Nigerians calling for stricter enforcement to deter similar acts.

Road traffic crashes remain a major public safety concern in Lagos, with authorities attributing many accidents to speeding, distracted driving and disregard for traffic regulations.

The police have consistently maintained that anyone found culpable in actions capable of endangering lives would be prosecuted, regardless of social status or online influence, as part of efforts to curb rising cases of reckless behaviour on the state’s roads.
