Holiday Capture

Warri, the capital of the waterside region of delta state doesn't have much to look at on my visit there. I was on the look out on my short termed visit. I even thought I might see signs of the militants but there was nothing of the sort.

The town looked so peaceful, you'd doubt that there was anything serious happening in the creeks.

However I did get to snap this photo of a wedding invitation of one of the leaders of the youths leading the 'struggle'. Now you've got to be loaded to fly your wedding invite on a billboard!

I don't know if he's a militant or just a youth leader during the inter tribal war. But the words on this second board got me wondering. It reads just below his name, Hon. Ayirimi Emami - 'the unrepentant defender of the youths'

Either its a wrong use of word but the word 'Unrepentant' there rather sounds negative doesn't it? 

Well I did manage to catch 2 nice pics in warri - one of my sweet 7 month old daughter in a cute pose and another of her grinning  with her mouth stuffed with cake!

Oh...and a happy new year to you all!

Scary Changes

Its amazing how innocent kids turn out to be controversial adults. A look at any of such individual's kid photographs will always contradict what we see today. Who would have thought they would become who they are today?


Believe it or not. This gentle looking dude is Marilyn Manson



And looking geeky here is Avril Lavigne

Hmm, I'd never have thought Kanye West had so many white friends way back.

At this age, I don't think Eminem had started cursing.

And at this age, I don't think Notorious B.I.G ever dreamed he'd get shot.

Okay, I'll stop there. You want to see more surprising photos of stars? Check them out on the sites where I got these from:
