Popular Nigerian Rapper and Singer, Modupe-Oreoluwa Oyeyemi, otherwise known as Mocheddah has joined the long list of Nigerians who have either berated or canceled D’banj over the way his team reportedly handled the rape allegation that was leveled against him.
Mocheddah berated D’banj after an official press statement was released by his accuser, Seyitan.

Her post reads ;
Shame on you, dbanj. Shame on you for being the bully you have shown us you are.
Shame on you for silencing a young woman from speaking her truth.
Shame on you for being an instrument to unlawful imprisonment.
Shame on you for influencing the order to arrest a woman that has accused you of rape.
Shame on you for making her sign under duress.
you have shown.the world who you are, and that you truly stand for nothing.
This story has gone beyond rape. You have manipulated the justice system to fit your selfish interest. You have broken the law on multiple counts, and you deserve to be CANCELLED .dbanj should be stripped of his endorsements, and his awards should be retracted to send a message to all bullies that believe they are above the law. The policemen that arrested seyitan unlawfully should all be exposed and relieved of their duty.
The power of your influence puts the onus on you to act right, but Regardless of your status, you are a man first .many might say this case is about cloth chasing, but takeout your bias towards your favorite and replace him with regular joe, wouldn’t you want the same Justice? Do the right thing
A Facebook user has in a new post on his page, condemned men who carry out DNA tests to ascertain their child’s paternity.
The user, Hugo Abuudo said DNA/paternity tests are destroying marriages and asked that men stop “contesting” the paternity of the children born by their wives.
He wrote,
In Igbo custom and culture, every child born by a wife in a marriage automatically belongs to her husband.
There is no contesting it.
DNA/ paternity test is out to destroy the marriage institution as we know it.
Most of our fathers, grandfathers and great grandfathers were not actually the biological children of their fathers.
So sometimes I ask, what do you want to do with a paternity test when your own paternity is in doubt?

Popular Intergovernmental organization, The United Nations (UN) has denied Nigerian musician, Oladapo Oyebanjo better known as DBanj, stating that he is not their ambassador.
The popular singer is currently embroiled in a messy scandal following the recent accusation of rape by Miss Seyitan Babatayo, a matter which has prompted the order of an investigation from the office of the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu. (Read more on that here)
This led to over 22,000 Nigerians signing a petition on Change.org as of June 24, 2020 to strip him of his supposed United Nations Youth Ambassador for Peace.
According to the singer’s Wikipedia page, the musician was the first Nigerian to be appointed a UN Youth Ambassador for Peace.
Reacting to an inquiry by PUNCH on the status of this purported ambassadorship, the UN replied saying, “I would like to confirm that the said Mr Oladapo Oyebanjo aka D’Banj is not a UN Ambassador. The title was accorded to him by an obscure UN youth association which has nothing to do with the United Nations. I hope this clarifies.”
However, while some fans were in support of her, others vehemently opposed it saying it’s a practise that dates centuries before she was even born.

Many people (villages) in Igbo land have different understanding of what bride price represents. According to my people, bride price is not the value of a woman paid in sum, but an allegiance of unity, signifying oneness of both families. My Dad collect N10 as bride price.
No please. It is Ourculture. I rather we handle it like my village does. We ask you to bring #10,000 and it most be cash. So when the groom brings it, they make sure to collect as low as #30. They will ask you to use the rest to take care of your wife. ItsOurheritage
Why? If you don't want it, don't take it. There are others who believe it's culture and don't mind it. That's okay too. Bride price is the least of our problems, though.

According to Business Insider, 95 Million Nigerians live without electricity
According to a statement released on the 24th of June, 2020, the World Bank said the loan is for the power sector recovery operation (PSRO) to achieve financial sustainability and enhance accountability in the sector.

The objective of this operation is to help turn around the power sector and set it on a fiscally sustainable path. This is particularly urgent at a time when the government needs all the fiscal resources it can marshal to help protect lives and livelihoods amidst the COVID-19 pandemic.” the statement read
According to the World Bank, about 47% of Nigerians do not have access to grid electricity and those who do have access, face regular power cuts.
