CHAT WEDNESDAY!1

7th April

Hey people, welcome to your virtual "catch up on Top of the morning with Tosyn Bucknor if you missed the show" Package! (lol I know that was a mouthful) So how are you today? hope all's well....... Here is everything that occurred on the show today... if you missed it. On the Area show today our ardent listeners called in with information about their neighbourhood and in exchange they got to request for any song of their choice to be played.

After which we asked you two simple questions about Coca-Cola which are: what is the slogan/pay off line for the Coca-Cola advert on football? and do you know at least three countries out of the seven countries that have won the world cup so far? We had two lucky winners who once again claimed our tickets to The Coca-Cola party taking place on Saturday at Ocean View restaurant.

Right after that, DJ GQ dished out great music for everyone to get down and shake their bodies and then our guest arrived!! Yes! Just as we do every Wednesday, we had a guest artiste in person of the one and only cross over king ALARIWO OF AFRICA!!!!!!! Everyone was excited to have him around and questions like where have you been? What does Alariwo mean? What have you been up to? And many others were crashing our phone lines and face book pages!

Typically, our down to earth Alariwo patiently answered all the questions and shared with us what his real personality is like... it was fun having him around plus we played his songs for the listening pleasure of all and sundry... finally the show came to an end but not without Alariwo giving us a proverb in his language (He happens to be from Delta state). Make it a date with Tosyn Bucknor on the show tomorrow morning....in the mean time i would like to sign out now.......yes please, thank you...lol
I remain faithfully yours,
Naomi (The cute intern on Top radio).wink!

NOSTALGIC THURSDAY!!!!!

8TH OF APRIL

Top of the morning to you folks and it is with great pleasure i welcome you to the Top of the morning show (Well, the catch up segment.lol) on the hot dail 90.9! Yup! its good to have you read this; i hope you were a part of todays shows..if you weren't.....duh? what were you doing? well, my kind nature will always previal on the sacastic side of me (lol) so all the juicy tit bits that you missed from the show will be brought to you by my humble self...yeah, yeah you are welcome.

AAAAAARRRRRRRREEEEEEEAAAAA!!!!! sounds familiar doesn't it? yup! it sure does, because that's what starts the show every day. Usually we had a whole lot of contributions via sms, facebook and phone calls; people telling us about their Area..weather and traffic reports. The contributors had the chance to request for a songs of their choice to be played for them which we obliged...aren't we sweet at Top radio? lol

We then took you down memery lane; dishing out old songs that rocked the nineties and early two thousand. We know you felt nostalgic....but then thats the whole idea of today's show. Next we had the Top nine moments powered by Supermide! and ooooo she had a lot to tell us from sports entertainment and other randoms. I would say that Top nine moments is a delightful package of infotainment....belive me!

Tosyn then brought you the Stock market and weather report for the day which paved way for all our ardent listeners to sing their story! and sing they did! with all sorts of "Angelic voices" (lol, there i go again puting those two words in qoute...wink!) we then had a little talk on the Super Eagle's official drink Cocacola. We asked series of questions because we wnted to give out tickets to THE PARTY! and we found a lucky winner in wallintong; congratulations to him.

SLK's Darling our song of the week hit the air waves right after that and then we played you some more old school music....great ones, then (sadly...sob) the show had to come to an end. But the good thi9ng is (Like Banky W would say)....tomorrow, we will do it all over again! cheers!
Yours faithfully,
Naomi (The cute intern on Top Radio...wink!)

Wake up joo! have you forgotten its the beginning of another beautiful week? lol. I know you want snuggle deeper under covers and i al;so know you hate Mondays but i know a little secrete that would spice and brighten up your Monday morning...... TOP OF THE MORNING WITH TOSIN BUCKNOR!

Well if you missed today's show that's your loss! i sound sarcastic abi? OK OK, ill give you a down load of the juicy segments that you missed. Typically the show kicked off with Arrrrrreeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!! lots of people had a lot to say about their area/neighborhood giving us weather and traffic reports from their area..........of course not without the password AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol.

Right after that came the "You Say" segment and usually, the people wanted to say what was on their minds and they did! I say- Lagos carnival rocked! what do you say? you have the opportunity to say what6 ever it sis that you feel like on the programme tomorrow so, make sure you are a part of it!

The Coca cola company, official soft drink of the super Eagles, was generous enough to give us tickets to their big bash taking place at the ocean view restaurant, and we were in turn, generous enough to give them to you......our ardent listeners....so that's what came up next after you say! We asked you to call us and mention at least three countries out of the seven that have won the world cup over the years in exchange for our ticket and guess what? our first caller was the lucky winner..........i hear there is gonna be a performance by M.I Banky W, Eldee and other notable DJs...congratulations to our winner.

Next up came the Top nine moments with Supermide, giving us juicy gists on sports, Whitney's illness......... and so much more. Tosyn then gave you the weather report straight from our weather man giving way for our song of the week SLKs Darling.....pretty nice song if you ask me. The show ended thirty minutes earlier than usual signing out with Sound Sultan's 2010 this was to give way to the thirty minutes flava show which comes up every Monday,,,,,,,,,,phew, i hope i covered all areas of the show for you, its really not an easy task considering the fact that my fingers feel like carrot sticks now, due to too much typing lol But you know i will always go the extra mile to bring you what you missed on Top of the morning show with Tosyn...have a swell day and don't forget to stay on Top!
Your faithfully,

APRIL WISE!

Thursday 1st of April.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRea! (I hope you didn't just read that normally! i hope you screamed it for all your life is worth!) Lol. yes oh! I'm back again today. Why did you miss Top of the morning show today eh? because I'm sure you won't be reading this if you were a part of it! Anyway, that's why I'm here, to help you catch up. Today on the area show, we gave you information from different parts of Lagos and even the country with the help of our dear ardent listeners. contributions were pouring in from the phone lines, through sms's and from face book, of course not without the password AAAARRRRRRRRea!!!

we then had the Proverbs segment where listeners got to say proverbs in their mother tongue, translate it and then apply it to reality. We had a lot of contributions consisting of proverbs in different languages; Yoruba, Edo, Ijebu e.t.c and it was indeed very educative as we learnt a lot from those wise words. Next we had the song of the week Mary.J.Blige's Each tear, telling us each tear we shed makes us stronger.

The Sing your story segment came right after the Proverbs and oh......you need to have heard "Angelic voices" telling their stories in different songs! (Do not wonder why those two words are in quotes) lol. We had a great time. Supermide breezed in to give you the Top nine moments and boy, was it juicy; with sports, entertainment and other randoms. Tosyn then gave the weather report and she told us a Little about how April fools day came into existence.

Well, it was said that the first of April used to be the day new year was marked but when it was changed to the first of January, some people either due to ignorance or stubbornness still thought new years day was on the fist of April and so other people used to make fun of them and play tricks on them till it became so popular and hence, APRIL FOOL'S DAY!! But the wise people are always on TOP! And so my fellow wise men, it's a wrap make sure you do not Miss the show tomorrow!........if you are going to fool anybody today i suggest you keep it moderate and know were to draw the line OK? cheers......... NAOMI (The cute intern on Top Radio) wink!

WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY....YES BOSS!

Wednesday,31st of March.

When we envisage what a wonderful day is going to be like, I'm sure most of us picture waking up at the "right side" of the bed to the sun warmly shinning in......and we are like "wow do i smell eggs and toast for breakfast?". And then for the rest of the day, we come across no stress, hassles or anything to upset us and we can conclude it s wonderful day.well, today wasn't like that! First, the show kicked off late because of power issues; our two generator sets tried to revolt by giving us quick notice at the same time! can you imagine that? well the end result of that is that, Top radio had to go off air for a while (Sob)!

But guess what? we came right back! (I guess this is the part were i get to sing my story and and I'm singing Danny Young's "oju ti tiwon" for the enemies/haters who didn't want us on air). So we couldn't interview our guest for the day and we couldn't take too many calls but we sure gave it our best shot and we had fun! Playing good music, reading your messages on phone and face book.

We had a full house too. some students under media production training came to pay us a visit on the Top of the morning show. They spiced up the show with their happy laughter and excitement and I'm sure our listeners were happy to have them on the show. Everything went normally according to our daily pattern.......Area, You say, song of the week, Top nine moments, The weather report......... the only difference is that we had a shorter time frame than usual but hey we cant say our Wednesday wasn't wonderful because of that! It was wonderful and we happily look forward to more wonderful days ahead! cheers.

MOODY MONDAY..........NOT!
Top of the morning to you top listerners of Top Radio! (Im seriously rhyming i really should consider rapping as a carreer)lol. Sob...sniff, i'm so sad 4 ya'll who didn't listen up today because you missed out of the fun! Typically, the show kicked of with AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRREA!! yup! Area mama woke ya'll up this morning shouting just that one word; vibrating your houses! lol. It was a fun, exciting and informative segment as we brought you traffic reports from as many parts of Lagos as possible and reminded you of how "imporrant" it is to THANK THE LORD!

Next on Top was YOU SAY! Where listeners were given a chance to say anything they wanted to vai calls, sms, facebook, twitter etcetera. It was like graffitti on radio! say what ever you wanna and you can be sure the response to that was massive! Then, the only super hero in Nigeria; "SUPERMIDE" flew in, to deliver the TOP NINE MOMENTS! it was a sweet mixture of sports, entertainment and other randoms...yummy.lol. The Weather report was brought to you by Yours faithfuly, Tosyn Bucknor and then....(Ma favourite part) the song of the week was played: Mary.J.Blige's Every tear. A very beautiful song that tells you that every tear you have shed makes you a stronger person.

The topic of disscussion for today revolved around just one word: PURPOSE. Have you discovered your porpose in life? if yes, what is your purpose and how did you discover it? We had several responses to this but the general idea gathered from the contributions we had is that God reavels people's purposes to them and being alive without one is like a waste! there was a quere contribution.......that one had to wait to be 25yrs old before one can have a purpose in life! lol. To back it up, songs like "ise orin lori ran mi" and "party hard" where played; well you never can tell what peopl's purposes in life are can you?..we were only giving them ideas! lol.

Believe me, we had fun! The show came to an end (sadly....snif) on a spendid note with Tosyn thanking every one for listening and imploring yall to join her same time tommorrow (I would heed to that if i were you!). We signed out playing you Justin Derrullo's WATCHA SAY.......so watcha say, was it a moody Monday or not? can i hear a resounding NOT!
Faithfully yours,
NAOMI (nayummy) wink!

1st-He thought, the greek word for meat should be known
Next-The apocalypse(revelation) of how the pot came about
Then-The cullinary skillz of the cook
Before finding out who went near the cooking pot in the first place....What do you think........A caller named Ednah, and another caller went head to head by blaming it on no1 and no2....Uche actually thought Eroyah's answer was interesting and funny,but at first she was confused......
Supermide came along with happenings around the world on THE TOP NINE(9)MOMENTS and non-supermide,Tosyn gave the stock market report and the weather report.....
As you know,our song of the week is ROOFTOP MC FEATURING DJ KLEM-FLY AWAY,that song is really great,great.....Well,do not miss out on tomorrow's show it's going to be very packed filled on TOP OF THE MORNING WITH TOSYN BUCKNOR,like someone would say if you do,you are sitting down on a long thing.......

We can never forget our top nine(9)moments with supermide.This is a mment when we are put through the top nine(9)newsaing the headlines and if memory serves me right i thing the major topic of discussion was the return of our President.to be frank i dont know maybe i should conclude or still hang on to it as a rumour but whatever they said he's back.
It was also a day when we had guests in the studio and without being told i can bet you all want to know who graced the day,SAMKLEF and BRACE ever heard of them?SAMKLEF is the man behind HE DON BETTER ever heard that song?if you say know,then you are on a long thing and if you have,you are a strong thing.They took us through their journey so far in the industry and we got to find out that Samklef wasnt only a musician but a producer,he actually produced our song of the week by VECTOR and track titled KILODE.BRACE on the other hand falls into the language speaking artiste and i know you will be saying'we have too many of them already'but i have a speech like MLK junior had a dream and my speech says........LOOK OUT FOR THIS GUYS,they are simply hot.
then the moment that stole the day when you had 15 seconds to tell us about yourself and the calls kept coming,lets listen to some of the comments
Segun says:i am segun for all information check my profile on face book SEGUN TT,Oyindamola says:My name is Oyindamola i am an intern in top radio and when i am not working i think and write and Shola says:i am shola an intern in top radio who loves being creative,you wont believe some sang their way into 15 seconds but believe me when i say you could know alot about someone in less than 15 seconds.
I will never forget DJ DON GQ who was on the wheels of steel doing what he knows how to do best,dishing out unending jamz to make it memorable time in the studio.after all said and done it was time to go and we all couldnt believe it was time up for us because the show to us was just begining and yours truly Tosyn signed out with her own 15 seconds and you want to know how?ok i am Tosyn bucknor and i am signing out DJ GQ top of the morning pop champaigne and the song played sraight into the waiting ears of our listeners and we called it a WRAP.For those of you that missed out of todays show you know what i tell you but before i do,go pop champaigne and sip on it while you are sitted on a long thing.
Yours truly Segun Obende

Fun Fearless Proposal(?) Friday!!!

TOP OF THE MORNING ON TOP RADIO 90.9(19-02-2010).
The weekend is here again & of course the Friday edition of top of the morning starts off with the usual AREA Show where listeners call in & send text messages informing other listeners of the traffic situation in their AREA & also giving us weather report of their AREA. It was fun as usual with soothing music & there were a whole lot of responses from different locations in Lagos & environs. Then the Area show paved way 4 another segment which was a mixture of a week review & the shout out segment where callers have to call in & shout out for real, text messages were not left out but they had to be creative to be read out, believe me callers were really shouting out to friends, family members & off course loved ones which was really fun.
And now for the part I enjoy the most on the show on Fridays is always the entertainment segment where we get to know what’s happening in the entertainment scene both home & abroad & we had a guest in the studio to help out with the entertainment gist unknowing to her that she was in for a big surprise.The surprise popped up when a random call came into the studio & it was a guy proposing to his girl friend who happened to be in the studio & he popped the question (will you marry me? ),then he walked into the studio still making the call,then his girl friend flipped out in amazement & in great shock at what her boyfriend just did & the whole station was in awe of what just happened with congratulatory messages coming from everybody around.
The show had to go on after the surprise package with the entertainment segment and Beyonce’s father was in the news; the latest gist about him being that he now has to pay child support for the child he fathered with another lady while still married to Beyonce’s mum. Ha!
Lady Gaga was also mentioned as being the big winner at the Brits Awards which held on Tuesday! She won three awards, including International Female Act. The Brits is in its thirtieth season and Oasis was honoured- Best Album in thirty ywars. Apparently, the Spice Girls won Best Peformance in thirty years!
And congratulations to KEL!
Now only will she look good fashion wise, but also cos of her hair!
Yes o, KEL and GBEMI OLATERU-OLAGBEGI were recently unveiled as Brand Ambassadors for Soul Touch Hair products!
Yes o!
The show wrapped with ‘Ijinle Pampam’ a song by the Knighthouse crew featuring eLDee, Kel YQ and Othello!
So guys, let’s do this again next week, abi?

Top of the Morning (welcome back edition) Today’s edition of ‘Area’ was the welcome back edition, where listeners had the opportunity of talking about their weekend. It also featured the usual traffic and weather report. Amu Francis was the first caller on the show.

During the show, information about activities which took place during the weekend was given. The weekend was packed with activities ranging from football and the Grammy awards.

For sport, the ban on the Togo team by CAF was reviewed and listeners expressed their opinion through phone calls, text messages, facebook and twitter.
For the Grammys, award receivers included Beyonce, Taylor Swift, Lady Gaga and Michael Jackson, whose children received it on his behalf.

After the area show, listeners were given the opportunity to give acceptance speeches if they were to win an award.

The top nine moments which was read by Aramide Paul Taiwo at past nine featured stories on health, technology, entertainment and sports.

After the top nine moments, the song of the week was introduced which was Taylor swift’s ‘you are not sorry’.

The top question for today was ‘What do you think about Nigerian artistes organising beneficial concert for Jos like they are doing for Haiti?’.Most viewers said that the crises in Jos was as a result of religion but Haiti was a natural disaster. The show ended with Jason Derulo’s ‘watcha ya say’.

Friday 22 January 2010


THE ENTERTAINMENT REPORT!
- Awards Season continues!

Other nominees include, Up in the Air, Hangover, Coco before Chanel, Audrey Tatou, Quentin Tarantino, James Cameron and District 9.

- Rihanna! John Mayer! Spice Girls!
Rihanna is in the news! And this time, for supporting an important cause- to help Seun Adebiyi get a donor!
Seun Adebiyi is a 26 year old Nigeria who has been diagnosed with Leukamia, meaning he will need a bone-marrow transplant. Seun is an athlete and is well on his way to being the first Nigerian to compete in the Winter Olmpics so just like the people of Haiti and Jos, he needs all the prayers and help he can get.
Here is the link to his Youtube Video Appeal!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qtx00Wa6i1w


As for John Mayer, the latest gist is that he is still pining for Jennifer Aniston, or at least, he missed her!
He was reportedly quoted as saying, when asked about the break up, ‘I've never really gotten over it.... It was one of the worst times of my life”.
Meanwhile, Jennifer Aniston’s other ex, Brad Pitt, is also in the news. Well, let’s face it, he is ALWAYS in the news!
This time around though, an unofficial biography which alleges that Brad cheats on Angelina Jolie, and has cheated with a Somalian model, and also that their relationship cannot survive the next few years, has been published!
Tory Tory!

Break ups. Break ups. Break ups.
The Spice Girls might have broken up years ago, but you might still see them, or at least, versions of them soon! No, not another reunion concert, but this time, on stage, as a Spice Girls Musical has finally been approved and commisioned!
‘VIVA FOREVER’ will bring Victoria, Emma, Mel C, Mel B and Geri, live to us on stage!
But WAIT!
We hear the musical won’t actually be ABOUT the girls, but will feature their songs...
Err...



- So what’s happening this weekend?
The weekend is here!
Exciting isn’t it?
Catch asa on the Green on Friday, with opening acts, Ibiyemi and Bez Idakula.
You can also catch Beautiful Nubia at Sparkle Hall this Sunday, as he launches his new album! YAY!
Top Radio will of course, keep you entertained with Uche! Wyse! Azaria! DJ GQ! Damirez! Korebrown! Stranger! They all hold the forte this weekend, till another Monday swings by!
- Jedward? Timi!
X!
Yelkst!
The duo formerly known as contestants on the British reality show, X FACTOR, may have been voted out, but since they have now signed a deal with Sony Music, i guess they laugh last!
Their new single, ‘Under Pressure (Ice Ice Baby), featuring Vannila Ice, will soon be out
(yay? Nay? Yee? Pa?)

But from John and Edward Grimes, to Timi Dakolo!
Wednesday the 20th was a three in one (not the weave-on) combination for TIMI DAKOLO!
It was his birthday! (happy birthday! Thanks for the cake!)
It was the premiere of his video for hit single, ‘I Love You’ featuring Jesse Jags (with a cameo by Ice Prince and Zara)
It was his album listening party at Swe Bar! Hosted by Tosyn Bucknor, it featured performances by Rooftop M.Cs, Gbolahan and Hakym the Dream, and appearances by Lami, Ibiyemi, ObJazz, Obi Asika, Julius Agwu, Djinee, and more!

- Music .v. Movie Stars take two! Two sites move into further gear!
It turns out that when the movie stars go up against the music stars, they dance better!
Well at least, on Celebrity Takes Two, they do!
Fred Amata, Stella Damasus and Yinka Blag are the final three on Celebrity Takes Two, and this weekend, a winner emerges!
Me i am sha sad that Yinka Davies was voted off. She was fantastic!

And in closing, let us say, two of our favourite websites take things to another level!
First off, SWITCHEDONNAIJA which has always provided us with music, opinion articles and features, has published the first edition of RE’LOAD!
The cover is fab, the pictures look great, and it is definitely a collectors item!

And MYTRUSPOT.COM which is a favourite for music downloads, charts and fan pages, has given Africa its first application for Blackberry... the TRUSPOT APPLICATION FOR BLACKBERRY!
Users have tried it, and they love it! So go ahead and get it now!
Think about it!
You read Re’Load and Speechgirl blog when you queue for fuel, then listen to the Top 40 playlist on Truspot as you drive
Bliss!
Peace!
Out!
We thaank tha LORD

STORY AND SONG THURSDAY

STORY AND SONG THURSDAY
Top of the Morning show today the 21st of January, in the year 2010, it was fantastic and fun as we started off with the AREA show, where the only thing that gets you on the show is shouting AREA, the area mama in her usual Thursday style, asked the audience to give the weather, traffic reports and to mention what they can see in their neighbourhood through the window. Many people called and gave the weather, traffic reports from areas like, Lekki, Ikoyi, Ikorodu, Surulere, Agege, Mushin, Ketu, Isolo, Apapa, Ijebu and even Oyo state and other places to mention a few. On PROVERBS SEGMENT, where we usually have proverbs in any language other than English and then translate them into English, we had proverbs from, Yoruba land, Ibo land, and Zangalist land, etc. Some people even gave us one proverb in English. The audience communicated through the following mediums, twitter, phone line, text messages, and facebook.
However after the proverbs segment, more music was played, and after that was TOP NINE MOMEMTS by Aramide Paul Taiwo. She started with Nigerian news then to foreign news, sport news and entertainment news. After was the stock exchange and weather report by Tosyn, immediately after that was the usual ‘Quote of the Day’ by Aramide.

The SING YOUR STORY SEGMENT was fun all through, the audience called in, sent messages both on twitter and facebook. The first caller said something very touching about the Haitians earthquake incidence and also sang a song for them. However, many people also called in, sent messages about a story they loved to tell and a song that suited their story.
The ‘sing a story segment’ rounded up the top of the morning show with lots of music from different artistes both naija and foreign. This Thursday was just too gbasky as usual.

A Challenging Tuesday Indeed!

CHALLENGING TUESDAY
The challenging Tuesday started with music from different artist before the area mama started the show proper. The phone line was open for the audience to call into the program and give the details of weather and traffic report in their different areas.
People called in to give the traffic report of the following areas; Ikorodu-3rd Mainland Bridge was moving, Sango-otta was sengemenge, Egbeda, Berger- Ojota was free, Ogba, Aguda, Ita-Oluwo to Ikorodu was free, Owode, Ketu to Ikorodu was moving slowly, Adeniji, Mariner, to mention few.
The audience were allowed to speak like touts, which was done by so many people, people like; Olu babafiyin, Tunde, Segun, Lara and Wale, to mention a few, the winner of this character was Lara.
Thereafter, Tosyn explained the causes of malaria, what leads to malaria and why it occurs. She explained further that, malaria is usually transmitted through Mosquito. She said mosquito lay not less than 30-100 of eggs within 2 to 3 days and the mosquito feeds on human blood so as to keep their eggs, mosquito also attack between 5am and 8pm till down.
After that more music’s was played, new callers also called into the program [Tunde and Segun], after that Abigael, Bukki from berger, Bolu from Akute, kazeem from Mowe, Wale from Ketu also called in to share their feelings to the program.
She also said some things on Cockroaches that, this species can feed on both dead and immobile things, and this species can also contaminate foods and water. More music was played, including ‘Iwolomo’ by Dj Boombastic featuring 9ice.
The program moved on to ‘You Say’! The first theme was prayers, as Tosyn played, ‘The Prayer’ recorded by Celine Dion and Andrea Boccelli, and also, Donnie McClurkin and Yolanda Adams! Prayers ranged from needing admission, to healing, to grace in Nigeria!
The next theme was, the sweetest or funniest thing mums have said, and this was from a line from the song, ‘Gotta Be’ by Des’ree.
Next up was TOP NINE MOMENTS with Aramide Paul Taiwo, with Nigerian and international news! And her quote for the day? ‘IF YOU LOVE THE LIFE YOU LIVE, YOU WILL LIVE A LIFE OF LOVE’.
The song of the week this week is, ‘I didn’t know my own strength’ by Whitney Houston.

The movie ended with Venus on Top, and it was all about movies!
What are some of the most liked chick flicks? And what are those chick flicks that men actually enjoy but pretend not to?
Well, from the calls, texts, facebook and twitter messages, it was obvious movies like ‘Pretty Woman’, ‘The Proposal’, ‘Sleepless in Seattle’, and ‘Dirty Dancing’, are all time favourites.
The show ended with Tosyn urging everyone to join Dj GQ herself on the Wednesday edition of the Wednesday Chatshow.
Don’t say i told you, but her guest is DURELLA!
Okay na!

There were several other calls about traffic from everywhere like Chevron to Lekki, Awolowo Road, Iyana Ipaya, Ikorodu, and so on, and animated films like Lion King, Tarzan, Pocahontas and so on were mentioned, with cartoons like Tom and Jerry and even Voltron being mentioned!
People called, sent in text messages, left messages on Facebook, and also twitter, and throughout the Area show, Sweet 17 played nostalgic music in keeping with Thursdays Nostalgic theme, and also some soundtracks, like ‘Hakuna Matata’ from Lion King, and ‘Beauty and the Beast’ from the movie of the same name!

After the Area Show, more music was played, as people called in to give proverbs in any language other than English. We had proverbs in Yoruba, Igbo and Isoko languages today, and all the listeners were able to say what lessons they had learnt from them!

TOP NINE MOMENTS WITH ARAMIDE PAUL TAIWO
Aramide (or SuperMyd! as Tosyn likes to call her), spoke on things happening around the world and Nigeria in particular. Highlights include the tragic earthquake in Haiti which claimed lives and property, the death of Teddy Pendergrass, and the Court ruling that Vice President Jonathan Goodluck could take executive decisions, on behalf of President Yar Adua who is still recuperating!
Tosyn gave the stock market and weather report, and Aramide wrapped things up with a quote as always!

Top of the morning then continued with more music, and the SONG OF THE WEEK!
This week, we have been listening to ‘WHAT A FEELING’ by Beautiful Nibia!
SING YOUR STORY
Sing your Story comes up every Thursday!
Listeners are encouraged to call in with stories, and then sing songs that best capture the emotion they feel!
So many stories were told via phone calls, texts, facebook and twitter and by the time the show ended, people had laughed, cried and s.h.a.r.ed!
