LIVE MECHANICS OPENING SOON

Spawned from the fusion of street and music, and energized by the creative spirit, a new breed of style is born. Shaking up reality through art, music and an appreciation of life's challenges, Live Mechanics, created by Osa Odiase has been a force in the world of street couture since 2000; offering a new conscious line, bound for revolutionary achievement. Created to be an answer to the fast changing climate in today's world of street wear. Live Mechanics started as most great sportswear companies do by printing tees and sweatshirts and building a strong grassroots following in its California home base through our familiarity with our customer base and our marketing expertise. Since this time we have taken our flare for graphics and moved to a full scale line.

The Nigerian market is not one to ignore and has been designed for those of us determined to live our lives on our own terms, not afraid to express our dreams and turn them into reality. Live Mechanics continues to achieve this effect: incorporating a more conscious outlook into our product by exploring the differences in the world's rich cultural, musical, artistic, political landscape into street clothing for people from all walks of life.

Live mechanics is coming home to Lagos this October and is Opening at THE ADENIRAN SHOPPING MALL off Bode Thomas in Surulere...You dont want to miss this Grand opening...For more information visit

"SAVE OUR SOULS" IN CINEMAS

After a good premiere, Oby Edozieh has taken her new block buster movie, "Save Our Souls" to the cinemas with Silverbird Cinema being the first to embrace the high budget movie that was shot in Nigeria, England and India.

The movie Save our Souls which was directed by Moses Iyang and had Kenneth Okonkwo, Enebeli Elebuwa, Chioma Chukwuka, Ebere Okaro, Segun Arinze, Oby Edozie herself as cast.. "Save our souls"is about the emotional and psychological trauma that comes along with cancer and its effect on victims and their families, as well as various ways people choose to deal with it.

Speaking on the movie, Edozieh said ‘the movie has been very involving in terms of budget and other logistics, especially since the cast and the movie had to be moved to the two countries, but with the quality of movie we came up with, all the effort was worth it’.

She further said “Save our Souls is not only an entertaining movie but a very educative one and has won the support of big shots, organisations that are deeply concerned about the pain of people with cancer and will at anytime support cancer management or if possible eradication, firms like First Bank, the Federal Ministry of Health and Oby Gold Foundation.

The actress disclosed that she is elated that the movie is accepted in the cinemas; that means Nigerians are after qualitative and educative works. Speaking further, she revealed that the presence of the movie in the cinema will help in propagating the message against cancer.

BULLSHIT

What really is Nigeria turning into? It is very sad that after 50years what we have to show is bomb blasts..I dont care who is taking responsibility,who started it or who is planning to start a new one...it is wrong and should stop with immediate effect..If its the Northerners i dont know how they hope to come into power with all this bull shit..What legacy are we leaving behind for our unborn children: "birthday presents of bombs"..And to all you who are seeking to be presidents,governors,commissioners... go into your closets with no one there and really search yourselves,are you coming into power because they "you want to help the people" or are you coming to fatten your generations bank account..For goodness sake Nigeria is a country not a football pitch where you are tending to grass,the lives of people and property are at stake and what this A******* seem to be doing is looking for ways to seek for more power and money ..After 50 years no constant light scratch that no light,no water,roads are of utter disgust, an ss3 student cannot construct a full sentence and is about to write WAEC and we are jumping and dancing that we are indeed "THE GIANTS OF AFRICA",FOOLS IS MORE LIKE IT...WE ARE IN A JONZING NATION AND MOST DEFINITELY STILL SITTING ON A LONG THING IF NOTHING IS DONE!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH NIGERIANS STAND UP AND VOTE THE RIGHT PERSON INTO POWER,but the TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS WE REALLY DONT KNOW WHO THE RIGHT PERSON IS"..

The truth is that trying to cover Nigeria's dirty image is like trying to cover pregnancy with hands...Do u know we earn 10billion dollars from oil and our NIGER DELTANS ARE STILL LEAVING IN ABJECT POVERTY

It was chosen by the Reel World Film Festival as one of the 20 emerging film makers in Canada and now it has bagged two awards from the Harlem International Film Festival in New York City which are the movie Best Film award while lead actress Omoni Oboli won the Best Actress award.. "Anchor Baby a film that had Caucasian, Hispanic, Asian and African characters playing major parts, tells the tale of a married illegal immigrant couple living in the US, Joyce and Paul Unanga. They have been ordered by the US immigration to leave the country by voluntary departure. They agree to leave; but only after Joyce who is 5months pregnant delivers her baby inside the US. This will guarantee automatic citizenship for their child. Ignoring the deportation order, the couple goes into hiding. Paul was later caught and deported while Joyce stayed back to struggle on her own to achieve their dream".
