Feel Good Friday

Thank God it’s Friday and its Feel Good Friday on Top Morning with Tosyn Bucknor. After a work-full week and stressful days, you aint got no choice but to feel good on a Friday and that is exactly what Double 09 is determined to do today; make you feel good on a Feel Good Friday as the weekend begins. It is also an opportunity to give a loud shout-out to the people that mean something, nothing, anything and everything to you.
There was a lot of excitement in the air today as Tosyn couldn’t help but to share the fun even as she read the traffic updates and received calls. Iyana-Ipaja, Shomolu, Ajangbadi, Ketu, Maza-Maza, Ojo, Ikeja, Third mainland bridge, Akowonjo, Egbeda, Yaba and Agege were not free this morning. Conversely, Allen Avenue, Ikorodu, ajegunle, Maryland, Sagamu, Abule Egba, and Mangoro were quite free this morning. The weather was chilly in all these places, making people want to stay in bed and rest some more for the fear of rain.
In the Yarn-free Zone today, we had some music from Dido, Tracy Chapman and Taylor. Next, Tosyn gave some information about the Verve debit card powered by Interswitch. The card is so secure and efficient that one needn’t worry about fraud, and it is accepted in all payment channels in Nigeria and even abroad. It guards your money by ensuring that you receive a text message each time a withdrawal is being made so that one can quickly abort the transaction in cases involving fraud. It also provides an Identity Guard which is a one-time pin code that is generated each time the card is being used. As if this is not enough, it has a professional team that manages and investigates issues. As an added advantage is the fact that it rewards loyal patronage by giving them some freebies. It is available in all banks nationwide.
Aramide came in on Top 9 Moments today with some info about the on-going investigation over MJ’s paternity of Omer Bhatti, a 25-year old dancer who claimed to be the issue from MJ’s secret love affair. It was reported that he had been living with his parents in Neverland before now. Another story on MJ revealed that a custody deal has been reached for his children that would see the biological children of the two eldest earn parental rights and their grandmother retain permanent custody of all three children. She will obtain visitation rights but no money beyond the spousal agreement already in place. Some security experts have uncovered flaws in apple Inc’s {AAPLO} iPhone that they say hackers can exploit to take control of the popular device, using the tactic for identity theft and other crimes. In Nigeria, the ASUU chairman at the lagoe State University {LASU} Ojo, Lagos, Kabir akinyemi has dispelled reports that the institution might commence with its semester exams on Monday. The leader of a radical Islamic sect in northern Nigeria has been killed in police detention hours after being captured by the security forces on Thursday.
With so much information on Top 9 Moments, Aramide had to give a quote to water it down and the quote for today is: ‘Where there is a will… there are 500 Williams’. Ha ha
After this, it was just loads of shout-outs to usher us into the weekend and Tosyn said her good bye at a few minutes to 11.
Much love,
Ruthina Atinuke.
