"Wise men listen much and speak with caution, for they know...the folly of talking too much!”
-Napoleon Hill
Master Key to Riches.

Perhaps, one major reason men continue to suffer and wallow in sin is because of women. It is the thinking of many men that since God took one rib out of man and created woman, man himself has not known peace. Think of Adam. Think of the forbidden fruit. Think of the Garden of Eden. It is being reasoned that since the ignominious loss of eternal glory, man's perilous journey has been from a hole, into a hole and back to a hole. (Mind your language, please!) One anonymous philosopher (was he a psychologist?) even defined woman as “Woe Unto Man.” This month's cover story, “Woe-man: Things African Women Do that Annoy Men and Kill Intimacy” looks at African woman: the wife; the mother; the daughter…the imperfect!

Abass Akande Adeniyi aka Obesere, one of the greatest musicians from Africa, was in Ireland recently. He made himself available to all. And we the press people had a field day. But while others pampered him, Xclusive Magazine went for the jugular: Is Obesere a womanizer? Was he ever arrested and detained in Belfast? Did he ever have a secret liaison with a popular Nigerian female politician? Why do Obesere and K1 De Ultimate hate each other? Why, for God's sake, is Obesere dinning with the evil genius, Ibrahim Badamosi Babangida (IBB), with a “short” spoon? Yes, we were that very blunt. We threw every missile at Obesere and he responded to all, humbly and frankly. It is an explosive interview that you must read. You must also read another explosive interview with one of our “Xclusive People”, Salome Mbugua-Henry, the feminist and the National Director of Akidwa.

And the winner of the Most Beautiful African Girl in Ireland 2006 is…Nofe Liberty. She is a singer. She is a dancer. She is sexy. She spoke to us xclusively. Plus all you need to know about the beauty pageant ….It is Christmas time. It is jolly time. So “All About Style” is about bling, bling. It's about ensuring that you stand out in the crowd. Also we have painstakingly compiled the 10 Xclusive Hotspots that you MUST visit for your 'Xmas shopping and to jolly. Don’t miss it.
