Popular Nigerian singer David Adeleke, also known as Davido, has taken to social media to celebrate his first child, Imade, as she turns a year older today, May 14.
The DMW boss, in a post shared via his Instagram story, assured her that he loves her very much and promised to see her soon.
His statement is worth noting because his first baby mama and Imade’s mother, Sophia Momodu, has in recent times accused him of being a deadbeat father.
She claimed to have been single-handedly raising Imade because Davido allegedly took his hands off his responsibilities when she refused to succumb to some of his demands.
She even filed a cease and desist letter against the singer and his associates in January 2024 over accusations of cyberattacks, defamatory remarks, and threats towards her and her inner circle.
Imade’s 5th birthday party in 2020
The letter stated that Davido’s alleged actions are in direct violation of Sophia’s constitutional rights and ignored fundamental principles of decency and respect.
While the singer is yet to officially react to Sophia’s numerous accusations, his post shows the extent of his love for his daughter.
Davido posted a photo of Imade with the caption,
“Happy birthday to my First born child @realimadeadeleke
Just know daddy loves you so much !
And I will see you soon I promise!”
The Nigerian smartphone market is becoming increasingly competitive, with several mid-range devices vying for consumer attention. Notable among them are the Infinix Note 40, Redmi Note 13, and Realme 11. Each brand brings its unique features to the table, striving to claim the title of mid-range champion by offering a balance of performance, design, and practicality. In this comparison, we will take a closer look at these devices and determine which one reigns supreme in a market where quality and functionality are highly valued.
Charging and Battery
Both Redmi Note 13 and Realme 11 maintain a standard with 5000mAh batteries and 33W fast charging. While they provide decent charging speeds, they lack the advanced technology and convenience offered by Infinix’s innovative wireless charging capabilities. The Infinix Note 40 isn’t just equipped with a standard 5000mAh battery; it transforms the charging experience with 45W wired fast charging, which powers up the battery to 50% in just 19 minutes. Furthermore, Infinix elevates the charging game with a 20W wireless MagCharge system, supported by innovative magnetic accessories like the MagCase, MagPad, and MagPower, allowing for effortless charging.
Both the Redmi Note 13 and Realme 11 do not offer wireless charging, placing them a step behind Infinx Note 40 in technological innovation. The wireless charging of the NOTE 40 isn’t just about power; it’s about convenience and ease, allowing users to charge their devices effortlessly. These features are particularly advantageous in Nigeria, where power fluctuations are common, making fast and reliable charging essential.
At a time when other phone brands like Apple and Samsung are progressively eliminating chargers from their packaging, Infinix’s approach undoubtedly wins consumers’ favour.
Design/Display:
With its 6.78-inch FHD+ OLED display, the Infinix Note 40 offers a visually stunning experience, enhanced by a high refresh rate that guarantees smooth scrolling and superior responsiveness. The slim bezels and sophisticated design of the Infinix Note 40 surpasses Redmi Note 13’s 6.67-inch display and the even smaller 6.43-inch screen of the Realme 11, as they fail to maximize the visual impact in the way Infinix Note 40 does.
Camera
The Infinix Note 40’s camera setup is another area where it truly outshines the pack. While the Infinix Note 40 and Redmi Note 13 may share a similar 108MP main camera specification, the Infinix takes a definitive lead with its superior front camera—a 32MP sensor that captures wider, clearer, and more detailed selfies compared to the Redmi’s 16MP and Realme’s 8MP front cameras. This difference is not just in numbers; the quality of selfies and front-facing videos significantly enhances user experience, making the Infinix Note 40 the preferred choice for vloggers and selfie lovers. Additionally, the higher aperture and sensor size on the Infinix ensures better low-light performance and depth in photos, which the Redmi and Realme struggle to match.
The Realme 11, with its 64MP main camera, appears almost antiquated in comparison, lacking both the resolution and advanced features that Infinix users enjoy. It’s clear that when it comes to camera capabilities, Infinix isn’t just playing in the same league; it’s defining it.
OS
While the Redmi Note 13 and Realme 11 offer stable experiences with Android 13, they miss out on the significant advancements that Android 14 brings to the Infinix Note 40. The Infinix Note 40 stands out with the latest Android 14 operating system, complemented by the customized XOS 14 interface.
For Nigerian users, the advancements in Android 14 could mean more efficient data management, which is crucial due to the varying internet speeds and costs of data. Additionally, Android 14’s improved power efficiency features, help users to maximize their device’s battery life.
The Infinix NOTE 40, with its newer OS, may offer a slightly longer lifespan in terms of receiving future Android updates. This aspect is crucial for Nigerian users who prefer devices that remain current with the latest software for more extended periods.
Verdict
In summary, while the Redmi Note 13 Pro has gained attention in the mid-range market, the Infinix NOTE 40 clearly leads the pack. It prioritizes essential features that resonate deeply with users—like rapid 45W wired and 20W wireless magnetic charging, alongside a premium design that sets it apart. The Infinix NOTE 40 is designed for efficiency and convenience, surpassing its competitors who still cling to more traditional, slower charging methods. It does not burden users with superfluous features but instead presents a streamlined, premium design that is both functional and stylish, clearly setting it apart from the crowd. With its well-rounded offering, it takes the crown as a midrange killer without any real weaknesses.

Hilarious reactions have trailed a post that was shared on TikTok which recorded a school proprietress complaining about the portion of food a pupil brings to school.
She had sent a voice message to the guardian of the student to reduce the portion of food the child brings to school.
According to her, the quantity of food the child consumes during school hours is too much for a child his age.
Adding that they have to lift the child whenever he is done eating because he can barely move himself after.
She said;
“Please help me tell grandma or whoever is cooking for your son that they should please reduce the food you are giving him. It’s too much and it will affect him, infact it’s affecting him in the class. Whenever he finish eating he will not be able to stand up until they lift him up, this is not good please tell them.”
Below are some of the reactions,
@mheenarh: The proprietress handled this very well, it shows they are observant and doing their work well in that school
@mo__andra: When the boy chop finish e no go fit stand up until dem epp am up and after that na sleep kee me! Na wetin my mama fit do be this, she go wan use food kpai u! Sha no allow am come do omugwo for u cos ur pikin go hear am!
@I.tobiloba: “When he finish eating, once they lift him up the next thing is sleep” Is it Fufu they gave the boy to school?
@gracemaryeneche: The teacher had to say grandma because she know the girl has nothing to do with the boy upbringing
A social activist who identifies as @OmaJimon Facebook has shared a long list that contains her greatest fear in marriage.
The lady started by sharing that one of her greatest fears is to be with an unintelligent insecure man with low self-esteem.
According to her post, it is quite difficult to find the man of her choice because a large percentage of Nigerian men are the same.
Her post read;
“One of my greatest fear in relationship and marriage is to be with an unintelligent insecure man with low self-esteem.
This combination is a gift from the devil himself.🤣
Unfortunately 8 out of 10 Nigerian 30+ men are like this… 🤣
When they see your post about not wanting certain things in a relationship, they feel angry because they know that post is actually for them.
A man that cannot express himself so he feels threatened by you that can express yourself better.
A man that can’t hold a good conversation.
A poor man…
I hope you know there is a huge difference between being poor and being broke?
Yes… I avoid poor men because everything about them will center around the trauma of lack and poverty even when they are millionaires.
Imagine being with someone who is not bright and they will be claiming “I’m the man, don’t correct me, I know what I’m doing… you’re trying to control me…”
Imagine your man in public arguing like an illiterate because he doesn’t read, his head is empty…
Imagine being with a man that doesn’t think properly,
Imagine your man coming on Facebook and having beer parlour conversations like washing machine is for lazy women…
Like conversation and opinions that only very daft, poor and uneducated people can hold, opinions that when people hear they will go to one corner and laugh at you…
And people would be like “is this what Oma finally ended up with?”
A Nigerian man who identifies as @alexlobaloba has shared via X (Twitter) how a lady in the UK who pretended to be a beggar stole from his friend.
Sharing CCTV footage of the scene, he revealed that his friend didn’t expect the incident to happen because he was in the UK.
In the clip, a Caucasian lady was seen moving to his friend’s table with a placard in the restaurant where they were eating.
The lady stylishly placed the placard she was holding on his phone which was on the table and hid it while asking the man for help.
Unaware of what she had done, the man asked her to excuse them because he had no money to give her.
His friend also noted in his tweet that;
“Always stay at alert, no dey loose guard; home or abroad, nah everywhere thieves dey. This happened to my paddy in a restaurant in Woking They pretended as if they were beggars, he shouldn’t have allowed them move close to him, but he probably thought “this is abroad, nothing fit happen”. After 10mins, his head felt light while his body became heavy, that was when it dawned on him that something don happen.”
Below are some of the reactions from netizens;
@Auntymuse: He didn’t feel they will steal because she look well dressed. Omo everyone has to be alert
@hoylumeeday: My head go wan blow. All my body go dey pepper me. Belle go dey turn me. Say na ladies run me this kind street
@LadyGrasha: Omo. One won’t even suspect. I hope this person was caught
@tee_Omoba: As soon as you leave the comfort of your house, every other person na Opps
Controversial Nigerian dancer Korra Obidiis currently trending on social media after traveling to Hawaii on vacation to ‘escape’ reality.
This has sparked huge controversy because her vacation comes only days after she went online to solicit donations to fund her legal fees for her ongoing child custody battle with her ex-husband, Justin Dean.
The mother of two went live on Facebook to reveal that Justin had gotten Facebook to take down videos featuring their children from her page because he doesn’t want them on social media.
She also lamented bitterly about the remaining content on her page being demonetized because of the action taken against her account.
To fight for her rights, she opened a GoFundMe account and begged Nigerians to come to her aid as she takes her ex-partner to court to protect her major source of income.
In a short time, Korra was able to raise over $50,000 out of a $100,000 target after over 1,000 people donated to the cause.
However, in an interesting turn of events, Korra is currently in Honolulu, Hawaii, having the time of her life. She also shared a video of herself extending Mother’s Day wishes to women while on a flight on Sunday, May 12.
Check out the geotag in this photo she shared on her Facebook story below,
This has caused a huge stir online, with many accusing her of being a scammer who siphoned funds from people through false pretenses to sponsor her trip.
She has since responded to the allegations, explaining that she booked the flight and Airbnb long before starting the GoFundMe campaign.
Popular gospel singer Moses Bliss has taken to social media to express his excitement about officially meeting and singing for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle.
It will be recalled that the British royals arrived in Nigeria last Friday for a three-day visit to explore the rich culture of Nigeria and also to visit wounded Nigerian soldiers in the Northwest.
They were hosted to a lovely event at the Delborough Hotel in Lagos state on Sunday, May 12, and Moses Bliss had the privilege of giving them a sensational musical performance.
Taking to his page to share his experience, the ‘Too Faithful’ crooner expressed his joy at meeting with Prince Harry and Meghan, stating that it is a memory he will cherish for the rest of his life.
He posted a video of himself singing in the presence of the royal couple, and Meghan appeared emotional and captivated by his vocals.
Sharing photos of himself with Harry and Meghan, he wrote,
“The joy of meeting and singing for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle the Duke & Duchess of Sussex @sussexroyal today on their inaugural visit to Nigeria and hear Meghan express her appreciation for my music is a moment I will forever cherish.
Thank you @thedelborough for having me.
Thank you sir @stanleyuzochukwu for the opportunity to be a part of the Royals visit to Nigeria I’m grateful.”
In a surprising turn of events, a Nigerian man recently found himself in a state of disbelief as he stumbled upon a novice driver practicing their driving skills using a truck.
The man came across a truck parked on the roadside, adorned with not one, but three learner’s permit signs, clearly indicating that the driver was in the process of mastering the art of maneuvering such a huge vehicle on the road.
Overwhelmed, he couldn’t help but question the logic behind choosing a massive truck as the vehicle for learning to drive.
The sight left him wondering about the challenges and risks associated with handling such a vehicle, especially for an inexperienced driver.
As the video capturing the scene made its way online, netizens joined in with a mix of amusement and bewilderment, hilarious comments flooded the comment section.
As the video continues to circulate, it has undeniably garnered the attention of netizens, drawing various reactions from viewers and users alike.

Popular Nigerian actor Kevin Ikeduba has in a recent video he posted on his Instagram page shunned men who kiss and tell.
The veteran actor told men to desist from pointing out women they have been with adding that there is no award for it.
In Kevin’s opinion men who brag about the number of women they have been with are kissing and telling.
He also added that men and other ladies who behave in such a manner, need to stop it, because it is not a nice thing to do.
The actor said;
“The bible said he without sin cast the first stone which means all of us are sinners, all of us including me Kevin, nobody is a saint, and nobody is more holy. But you see in this life it is not good to know too much and do too much. I am making this video for guys who do too much and say too much, the guys I am talking about are does who kiss and tell, must you let the whole world know you have slept with a particular girl some of the guys who even do this have never slept with that particular girl before, but they will give people the impression that they have had their way with her must you talk. Have you received any awards for sleeping around? How many people have clapped for you? What have you gained from all these you are doing? The ones you have been with and the ones you have not been with you would lie that you have slept with them all. You don’t need to tell the whole world what you do or what your experience with people is.[sic]”
Controversial movie producer Stanley Ontop has seemingly criticized actress Destiny Etiko’s outfit, which she presumably wore to the AMVCA award show.
The thespian had taken to her Instagram page over the weekend to share photos of herself in a red see-through dress and a veil embellished with stones.
Due to the timing of the post, some netizens thought she was attending the AMVCA 2024 event, including Stanley Ontop, who went online to condemn her dress.
Though he didn’t mention any name in the post, he hinted that the name of the person he was referring to starts with ‘D’, solidifying speculations that he was talking about Destiny Etiko.
According to him, Destiny needs to arrest her stylist because she looks like a ‘peacock’ in the ensemble. He also claimed that she went to disgrace Asaba actors at the event.
However, it turns out that she didn’t attend the AMVCA show and simply posted pictures from her personal shoot.

“Watin una favorite Asaba Actress wear go AMVCA2024?

Big Brother Naija star Victoria Adeyele, better known as Vee, has responded after her co-star Isilomo criticized her outfit at the AMVCA show held over the weekend.
Isilomo, who participated in the 2019 edition of the BBNaija reality TV show, took to social media to share her opinion about outfits worn by celebrities to the award show, including Vee’s.
Regarding Vee’s dress, she described it as a ‘hot mess’ and rated it 2/10. She also asserted that the stylist did a poor job with cheap fabric.
She shared Vee’s photo on her page and wrote,
“Oh girl… a hot mess 2/10. So ill fitting and so poorly made. Cheap fabric. Wonna fight the stylist and the designer for doing this to this girl”
See below,
Well, Vee evidently spotted Isilomo’s review of her outfit on social media and didn’t hesitate to react.
Taking to Twitter, Vee asserted that she didn’t even know who Isilomo was until she saw the comment, thus undermining her relevance and opinion.
“I didn’t even know someone called Isilomo existed until today,” she wrote.
See below,
A while back, Vee clapped back at a troll who tried to ridicule her on X (Twitter).
Vee had shared a stunning picture of herself on the platform but a user who identified as @Bedlam127 didn’t find her beauty that appealing.
He had quoted her tweet with a caption that read; “Unilag education faculty you go see like 10 of her”
Upon seeing the tweet he made about her, Vee replied to him by saying “And I’m sure all 11 of us wouldn’t want you.” ICYMI, read here
A video of a Nigerian woman weeping uncontrollably over the demolition of her family property is currently circulating on social media.
In the viral clip, the woman revealed that her family had purchased the property in the Eti-Osa local government area of Lagos state in February 2024.
However, only two months later, it was marked for demolition by the government and subsequently demolished.
The woman, who was filmed crying her eyes out, lamented bitterly about losing the property only two months after moving in, and decried the amount spent on acquiring the property.
Her words,
“All the work, all the sleepless night, everything. If you are in Lagos, you will know how much properties in Eti-Osa cost. You know how much properties in Eti-Osa cost. Each time my son sees me crying, he would always say Mummy you have been crying. How do I explain to my son? What do I tell my children? This is very painful. I don’t wish anybody a thing like this. I don’t wish anybody to work so hard, so tireless and face something like this. I don’t”
This follows the Lagos state government’s recent move to demolish properties constructed on waterways in the state.
Some buildings were also demolished to facilitate the construction of the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway.
An Abuja barber by the name @Kallystouch on Twitter, who is a die-hard fan of Wizkid has cried out to the internet about how Wizkid FC failed to fulfil their money promises to him.
The barber had trended nearly a week ago after he called artiste Davido “003” following his fallout with singer Wizkid.
Davido had responded to that by declaring that the barber had just missed a life-long opportunity of being blessed by him to which the Kallystouch replied that he, Davido is not god.
This solidarity of his had endeared him to the hearts of Wizkid’s fans who promised to give him money and other benefits to spite Davido.
Kallystouch did not stop but continued to troll Davido, but days later, he came out to post that he was yet to receive the money promised to him and begged for assistance.
Davido’s fans overjoyed at this development, crashed his comment section to gloat and mock him. Read:
@Iam_Buchi: Dude, this is just Twitter cruise. Nobody go send you shishi
@veryrare76: You never see anything sir 😂😂😂 1 kobo no go enter your account .. you were not informed 😅
@Joshsavagej: Big mumu, I think u say FC no dey beg. Werey

@pj.stars: “Wizkid FC and fake love 5&6. Go and ask Okoli classic how 30BG turned up for her.”
Popular celebrity stylist Toyin Lawani has reacted to the negative reactions she received about her outfit to the just-concluded AMVCA 2024.
The fashion connoisseur took to her Instagram page to reveal that the initial outfit she intended to wear for the event ‘broke’, so she had to quickly design another outfit made with sack within a few hours.
She shared a video of the outfit and wrote,
“Devil tried,
But he couldn’t stop me,
Created this masterpiece without few hours today,
Main dress of over a month got broken,
But the King of Fashion 👑 in like a PHOENIX,
Always rising from the ashes and rising stronger
So we decided let’s serve MY SACK DRESS instead 🥰
What’s your take on this creative masterpiece”
However, the video was met with mixed reactions, with many criticizing the outfit and making Toyin a laughing stock for wearing sack.
Some asserted that the dress was ugly, trashy, and tacky, and that Toyin should have done better since she is a fashion designer.
Well, Toyin addressed the critiques in a follow-up post, stating that Nigerians are backward when it comes to fashion and she would not conform to their standards.
She emphasized that she designs for the global stage, not Nigeria alone, so she is unperturbed by the backlash.
Toyin wrote,
“NIGERIA IS STILL VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY ,

Popular Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham was captured showering encomium on her colleague Kehinde Bankole after she won the Best Actress award at the AMVCA.
The much-anticipated annual award show was held over the weekend, with celebrities stepping out in diverse outfits to showcase their unique styles and recognize outstanding talents in television and film.
In the Best Lead Actress category, Kehinde emerged as the winner for her performance in the movie ‘Adire’, surpassing Funke Akindele, Omowunmi Dada, Ireti Doyle, and others.
Following the ceremony, Toyin Abraham, who wasn’t nominated in the award category, was seen hailing Kehinde Bankole for clinching the award.
In the video, she was seen walking around Kehinde, showering her with praises, and also throwing shade at the people she defeated, with Yoruba flatulence.
The clip has sparked mixed reactions on social media, with many accusing Toyin Abraham of stylishly mocking Funke Akindele.
Read some comments below,
@bidal4life wrote, “Nothing sweet her pass the fact say funke Akindele no win am
She’s more concerned about funke losing than seeing herself winning”
@just_oma wrote, “Why do I feel Toyin’s compliment isn’t sincere? 😂😂”
@thatpoetclem wrote, “Well deserved award for Kehinde but we all understand what Toyin is doing abi?”
@lexisrenis wrote, “I’m not too versed with our local movies and the like, and it’s not a flex, but I know a little about the characters in this video and I can tell Toyin is a little bit overly flattering with her compliments.
And such isn’t coming from a good place. It’s laced with envy.”
Different reactions trailed online as Nigerian soldiers paid respect to their colleague who had just signed out and graduated from university.
In the video, colleagues of the graduating soldier stormed the school to pay tribute to him for his achievement on sign-out day. The graduating soldier could simply be identified as a general, considering the honour.
The graduating soldier appeared in his white sign-out shirt while his colleagues wore their military uniform.
The video captured the enthralling moment the soldiers paraded and saluted their colleagues in order, disclosing the military style. Other graduating students hurriedly emerged to film the moment, admiring the soldiers.
Viewers have questioned whether the celebratory gesture of the soldiers is permitted in the military to avoid being punished by their superiors. Many disclosed that the Nigerian military doesn’t permit their officials to further education, probably the graduating soldier opted for another means.
See reactions,
@Mickyy_Beast I thought the Nigerian army has a height requirement for recruitment?

Controversial Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie has reacted to the tweet the music icon, Davido made about leaving music because of trolls.
Davido had posted in the early hours of today, “Yall niggas really want me out the game that bad ?? Oya after next album I no do again. So una fit get peace”
This came from the frustration the star artiste was feeling after the numerous incidents happening in recent times bearing his name on it.
To this, the husband of Judy Austin responded by tagging the singer in his post on Instagram. He persuaded Davido not to give in to his enemies’ wishes by giving up.
Yul praised him for being a blessing to the country, and the continent and beseeched him not to stop entertaining the public. He wrote:
“Retire for who? Retire cos of trolls? When God made you great? Trolls will always troll great people. Great people, steady making headlines. You’re a blessing to Nigeria, to Africa. Keep giving us hits. Losers will never stop hating. Tell them, DIA FADA!
BOMBARDIER!! 001. @davido”.
Remember not long ago, Yul Edochie had advised artiste Wizkid on his Twitter tirade, claiming he knows what is wrong with the music icon to the chagrin of netizens.
Nigerian actress and filmmaker Etinosa Idemudia has called out Big Brother Naija reality TV star Pere again over alleged unpaid debt.
Sharing via her page on X (Twitter) she revealed that three producers have reached out to her regarding the TV star’s unpaid debt.
Recall that Etinosa had recently called Pere out to refund the money he was paid for a shoot after he didn’t show up.
According to her tweets, the producers requested that she help them obtain their money just like the way she obtained hers from the TV star.
Her tweets read;
“A lot of people suffering in silence because they want to look classy. I’m so sorry for you. Nobody should call me o. Go and collect your money by yourself from him. Pere has struck again 3 different producers are calling me abeg I no be tax collector My sister the ARMED ROBBER dey America dey susehh Parrots come and donate again for your fave please I’m tired.

Brother, God does not like thieves who cripple other people’s business and expect theirs to thrive. Nahhhh.“
Apostle Femi Lazarus has dared to take a snipe at the female gender in his recent online teaching which is currently circulating the internet.
He in the video was seen addressing men to be wary of women who hide under the guise of seeing their monthly flow to behave badly.
This he had called demonic, meaning it is unnatural and influenced by the devil. He went ahead to cite examples of women in the Bible who were supposedly peaceful and submissive to their husbands.
Pastor Lazarus’ advice to men to marry peaceful women was left not unopposed by women who expressed their displeasure over the comment the pastor made against them.
Read some of the comments below,
@Precious Kohas Nzubechukwu: Mood swing during menstrual flow doesn’t mean someone is not peaceful… It’s more like a down moment engineered by pain. This is mostly common among women that cramp during their flow. No one, not even men have themselves together 365 days in a year and that doesn’t mean they aren’t peaceful people.
@Chi Chi Prisca: So the Bible should have narrated where Esther was having menstrual pain or when she had discomfort that comes from menses. Ndi pastors rest for woman matter, una no get vagina and uterus, zuonike🙄🌝🌝
@Chika Victor: Ha! Very soon Una go say women dey f.ake p.ains during childbirth.
@Elsie Ihunde: The real you is coming out 😂 I remember telling my friend that I don’t trust this man. You know NOTHING about being a woman so kindly let us be Mr political correctness
What is your opinion on this issue, are women only being dramatic in their period or are actually sincere?
A Nigerian woman found herself in tears after her employer shockingly deducted a staggering sum of N53,000 from her monthly salary, leaving her with a mere N6,000.
The distressing story came to light when a man, known as @egi_nupe__ on X (Twitter), took to social media to share the ordeal, expressing his anger at the situation.
According to his account, the deduction was made due to a customer’s reversed payment.
Expressing his outrage, he firmly asserted that the employer had no legal right to make such a substantial and hefty deduction from the employee’s wages.
He further continued to speak in legal terms, expressing how it is generally prohibited for an employer to deduct any amount from an employee’s agreed-upon wages, except for deductions authorized by law, such as taxes, pensions, and other statutory deductions.
To legally deduct an employee’s wage for damages or harm caused to the business, certain conditions must be met.
Furthermore, deductions can only be made when the employer can demonstrate that the employee’s willful misconduct or neglect resulted in injury or loss to the business.
Any deductions beyond these are considered illegal.
This shocking story has left netizens outraged and captivated users online, it has undeniably garnered the attention of the public, sparking debates and heated conversations.
A Nigerian lady has shared via her page @ps_wears on X (Twitter) the level a man went to, to be with a colleague of hers.
She revealed on the platform that all the man wanted from her colleague was sex, but he came with a disguise of marriage.
Adding that he made his intention known after their wedding night where he revealed that all he wanted was just sex and not marriage.
Her post read;
“I have a colleague this happened to. She even got pregnant, and the man never reached her after he left Nigeria for Japan. His son is now 6 years old, and she cares for the child all by herself. Recently his siblings started supporting her. His family have begged and begged him to stop being childish and take care of the child, at least. Uncle said no. They have returned bride price back to the family of the man, so she can move on with her life. This is one of the nicest, simplest, and most hardworking woman I know. Very pretty, but because she refused to have sex before marriage, the guy went that far. After the wedding night, he told her, “Sebi, this is what you’re hiding, I went to make money and I have tasted it, and I’m going back. Chibuzor, wherever you are, you will experience pain and deceit. Just one sex changed her life forever!“
Nollywood actor and producer, Lege Miami has sent a direct message to singer Kizz Daniel over his dance steps at his recent London show.
Lege asserts that he created the dance but Kizz Daniel failed to give him the due credit. He said he has been dancing those steps for years but is still unpopular because he has yet to shoot into the limelight.

Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo has shared a contrary opinion to giving pastors your first salary, asserting a child’s first salary should be taken to his father for blessing in line with the Igbo culture.
The actor aired his opinion on Instagram in a video, using his son, Clinton Onyeze as an example after he had received his N50k income from a movie production.
Kanayo requested a ₦500 note while he blessed his son and prayed over the money. He noted that it is mandatory for a father to know his son’s earnings so he can teach him financial management.
However, a father can decide to collect a certain amount or the entire salary, depending on the individual. He also added that a father is superior to a pastor according to the Igbo culture.
He captioned the post,
“Take your first SALARY to your father for his blessings NOT TO YOUR PASTOR. And to that Pastor who said it belongs to him in a video in January, did you ever consider, the feeding/ transportation to and fro the office for that month? Where is this in the Bible? CHRISTIANS WAKE UP. This is not Christianity”
