you must see his penis.
You must see it, you must hold it, you must feel it, and make sure it’s working.”
The host of the interview appeared visibly shocked by the statement, prompting Rev. Dr. Prempeh to question their discomfort, saying:
“Ah, why are you being uncomfortable like that?”
Rev. Dr. Prempeh’s controversial remark has sparked a wide-ranging debate on social medi, and as garnered the attention of netizens and viewers.

A young British schoolboy has taken his own life after being blackmailed by alleged Nigerian scammers with his nude photographs.
Dinal De Alwis, a 16-year-old footballer and rugby player, had achieved outstanding A* GCSE results and had just commenced sixth form with aspirations of studying at Cambridge when he was contacted via Snapchat by someone from Nigeria.
According to Mail Online, De Alwis received two unclad photos of himself and was threatened that they would be circulated to all his online followers unless he paid £100.
Fearing for his reputation, the teenage boy left his family home and recorded a brief video stating his intention to end his life.
His father, Kaushallya De Alwis, expressed his profound grief to the Daily Mail, stating that he hopes no other family would endure such suffering.
Mr. De Alwis recounted the night his son disappeared, mentioning that Dinal had messaged both him and his wife to express his love for them, and instructed his siblings to take care of their parents.
Dinal was a student at Whitgift School in Croydon, near their home in Sutton, south London, where boarding fees reach £48,000.
Despite his outstanding academic success, Dinal struggled with the distress caused by the blackmail and ultimately choose to end his own life.
The South London Coroner’s Court heard that the blackmailer, believed to have other victims, had threatened Dinal in messages demanding payment.
Despite efforts by the police and the National Crime Agency, the blackmailer, believed to be based in Nigeria, could not be traced.
Mr. De Alwis described Dinal as a caring and bright son who excelled academically and in sports. He lamented that Dinal didn’t show any signs of unhappiness but likely felt overwhelmed by the shame of the potential public exposure of the images.

Veteran Nollywood actressRita Edochiehas seemingly tackled her relative, Yul Edochie, and his second wife, Judy Austin, over their online service.
It was earlier reported that the controversial couple held a virtual service on Sunday, February 25, where Yul, the lead pastor, invited Judy to offer counsel to women.
During the sermon, Judy advised ladies against performing wifely duties for their boyfriends in school, and to instead focus on their studies.
She emphasized the importance of not succumbing to peer pressure and compromising personal principles just because their peers have the latest phones and material things.
Her words,
“Our girls that go to school to read, to gain the knowledge that will shape your life, you focus on playing the girlfriend roles to your boyfriend in his flat probably because he’s rich, they will carry you in front of Benz and then you are the madam, a student 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 what you need as a young girl is to go and be playing wife role to another small boy that knows nothing. You’re the IT girl, no you’re not you have been distracted from what you were sent to school to do, don’t let peer pressure put you into something you can’t explain, and don’t destroy yourself with your one hand”
Her admonition didn’t sit well with many, including Rita Edochie, who took to the internet to criticize Judy for being outspoken on social media, despite ‘snatching’ Yul from his first wife, May.
In response to their online service, the veteran actress emphasized that God cannot be mocked, and she warned that their ultimate fate would be disastrous.
She wrote,
“HOW CAN YOU HOLD SOMEBODY’S HUSBAND TO RANSOME, AND YOU ARE BLABBING EVERY NOW AND THEN ?

I picked up things when I was in Ghana. I picked up things when I was in Nigeria. And working with Pheelz, he created the record [‘Homecoming’]. I just felt that Burna Boy would take it to a different level of credibility. I really do enjoy him as an artist. I just felt that this song would only be lifted better if he was part of it.”

Wunmi, the widow of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, has finally broken her silence on her father-in-law’s request for a DNA test to establish the paternity of their son, Liam.
It’s no secret that Mohbad’s father, Mr. Joseph Aloba, has repeatedly expressed doubt about the paternity of his grandson and demanded a DNA test.
He once insinuated that Wunmi was promiscuous and cheated on her husband with some individuals in his former record label, Marlian Music.
Reacting to the DNA request in a series of posts shared on her Instagram page, Wunmi stated that her husband never doubted the paternity of their son during his lifetime.
She also mentioned that her father-in-law didn’t doubt that Liam is his grandson until Mohbad passed away, and she heard about his doubt for the first time on social media.
On why the test has not been conducted yet, Wunmi disclosed that her father-in-law has refused to get a court order for them to proceed with the DNA test. According to her, she can’t release her son to him for safety reasons, considering all that has transpired since her husband passed away in September 2023.
She also urged the general public to appeal to her father-in-law to get a court order so that the test can be conducted once and for all, as he is not making any move about it.

Popular Nigerian singer, Kingsley Okonkwo, popularly known as Kcee, has disclosed that Harrysong had allegedly, and without his knowledge, forged his signature in order to swindle a client.
KCee said in a Beat 99.9 FM interview that former label artist, Harrysong stole over N3 million from the client without getting permission.
KCee said that while he wasn’t trying to follow in his footsteps, he was discouraged by Harrysong’s effort to discredit him by saying he wrote all of his songs and citing the fact that KCee was already well-known before he signed Harrysong.
Kcee said that Harrysong had deceived a client out of about N3 million by forging his and his brother’s signatures. He said he could restart the case and that it was still under investigation by the police.
Ayo Animashaun and Daddy Showkey, who tried to mediate between the two sides and were offended by Harrysong’s acts, were named as additional witnesses.
In his words;
“This is like 8 years or 7 years we went our separate ways but he keeps coming back every year with one thing or the other. I think this year, I told myself I wasn’t going to take that anymore because I have been keeping quiet and I didn’t want to address it. But most people didn’t know what happened between me and him. I have witnesses like Ayo Animashaun and Daddy Showkey, they tried to put us together and they heard about what happened and people were angry with him. I never came out.
Nobody knew he had to forge signatures of me and my brother, with his former manager to take money from one of our clients about N3.something millions, which is in the police right now. If I want to wake up that case tomorrow, I will wake it up. He even has a contract running, 5 years and he went out calling him out saying he wrote my songs.
When I won Star Quest, he was in the village, still fishing with his grandmother and I did four albums, 3 with Kennis Music. I was a superstar already, coming out to discredit me at some point because I gave you an umbrella to shine was nothing to write home about.”

Daniel Regha said, without a doubt, that he is not a troll in a recent interview with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu on Channels TV.
He revealed that he doesn’t jump into people’s comment sections and start calling them names. He claimed that he only expresses his ideas in response to statements or deeds committed by prominent people who frequently have an impact.
Daniel said that he adds the words “No offence, No shades” to his posts because he doesn’t want it to seem like he is coming from a place of shade.
Daniel said that the references to past events are because his own ideas are supported by facts.
He asserted that anything he says is seen as hate speech or clout because Nigerians perceive criticism as hate speech and differing opinions as trolling.

Recall that the hip-hop artist recently told the story of how his father passed away because the family was unable to come up with N70,000 to cover the cost of a hospital bed.

“When my father died, my family was poor. We could not pay hospital bed space of 70k [N70,000]. We had to take him home.

Nigerian singer, Seun Kuti has chastised politician’s wives for not divorcing their husbands despite their partners’ ongoing embezzlement of the country’s funds.
Kuti questioned how ladies could still be in love with public office holders who stole so much during a recent Instagram live session.
The Grammy-nominated performer also voiced his annoyance and fury at the affluent politicians who, in their greed, are harming the lives of millions of Nigerians.
In his words:
“You cannot see any Nigerian woman divorce a Nigerian politician for stealing from the country. Can you love a thief? Somebody that is blatantly stealing, not because he lacks anything.
I can understand if he was hungry and he went out to steal to provide for his family. But these politicians are wealthy and are still ruining the lives of millions of people because of their greed. Yet, you can’t hear that their wives are seeking divorce.
Even if you are poor, regardless of how bad your situation is, to hurt somebody else just to eat is completely wrong.”

In his words,
“In 2011, I was to bury my mum and I had many senators I had friends and I wrote to all of them. Two weeks after the funeral, Peter Obi called me at 1 am in his little voice, o sim ‘nwanne I just got your letter, I know the burial is over, You know I would have come if I had seen the letter’.
He sent me exactly the price of a cow. You know somebody would have thought he would give you two million for burial in 2011.”
I think he went to the market and priced the cow, the cow was 250k and that is what he sent to me. But the story here is he was the governor but he had time to call me.”

In her words;
“I’m one of those girls who has seen a babe on my boyfriend’s bed before. That’s another crazy thing that has happened to me. My life is dramatic, trust me. All those things you see in films have actually happened to me.
First, I was staying with this guy for a very long time.
I had school, but I left schoolwork to stay in a man’s house because of love. One day, as I was leaving, he removed his rosary and put it on my neck as protection, and he started crying, ‘Don’t go back to school.’
In my mind, I had seen love. His birthday arrived while I was in school. He stayed in Ajah, but those days, I didn’t mind. I was young and in love.
Although there was Uber then, I can’t remember how I was moving from Unilag to Ajah. I usually slept over at his place anytime I went to see him.
So, on this day – his birthday – I had left [my place], and then I called him to ask to spend some time with him. He said nothing was happening, and I shouldn’t stress myself. I was like, my boyfriend has put a rosary on my neck. I had to go now. When I got to his door, I heard loud music blasting. I felt he couldn’t hear me, so I went to the window, and then, I saw a light-skinned girl on the bed, stark naked. It wasn’t a film.
It pained me so badly. I was so hurt. I think that was my biggest ‘breakfast’.”
Popular Nigerian singer Oyinkansola Sarah Aderibigbe, widely recognised as Ayra Starr has disclosed that she was 14 years old at the time she gained admission to the university.
The Mavin Records princess claimed to have received her bachelor’s degree early because her mother had insisted that she complete her education before following her dream of being a teenage pop star.
In a recent interview with Billboard, Ayra Starr revealed the information, stating that her mother was the one who recommended that she moves to Lagos.
The “Rush” hitmaker went on to say that she took the JAMB exam with her older brother and was accepted into a reputable university based on her score.
In her words,
“I got into the university at 14. I feel like my mum has been using music to blackmail me since I was a child. She was like, ‘If you want to do music, you have to do this.’ When she suggested we relocate to Lagos from Benin Republic, I declined initially, but she convinced me that Lagos is the land of music.
She insisted that if I want to do music, I would have to finish school first. Usually, a lot of people in Nigeria finish secondary school at 15, 16. I knew that if I waited till I’m 15 [before completing my secondary school], I won’t be able to be a teenage pop star. And I wanted to be a teenage pop star. So, I joined my elder brother and wrote JAMB, what you guys called SAT here.
To be honest, the result wasn’t craazy to get me onto all these Ivy League schools but it was enough to pass by. It was enough for my mum. I got admitted into a good school. My course was for three years. It was International Relations. And immediately after my graduation, I started doing music covers online and that same year I got signed [to Mavin Records label].”

Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsha Williams has reportedly filed for divorce from her Nigerian husband, Simon Guobadia, just 15 months after their lavish wedding in Nigeria.
The reality TV star filed a petition to end her marriage to Guobadia on Thursday, February 22, in Atlanta, according to court documents.
According to PEOPLE magazine, the divorce is “unrelated to recent allegations involving Simon’s past.”
An insider shared with People that the cause of their split is an “ongoing matter.”
Williams, aged 42, and Guobadia, aged 59, got married traditionally in Nigeria in November 2022 followed by an American ceremony in Atlanta.
The couple announced their engagement in May 2021, just one month after dating.
“Yes, we are crazy in love,” Williams captioned a selfie with Guobadia. “I know it’s fast, but we are living life each day to its fullest. I choose happiness every morning and every night.”
At the time, Guobadia reaffirmed Williams’ sentiments in a post shared on his Instagram page. He revealed that he asked her to marry him “because we checked ALL of each other’s boxes, and then some.”
Porsha Williams initially joined RHOA during its fifth season and later appeared with Guobadia on the Real Housewives spinoff Porsha’s Family Matters in 2021 after departing from season 13.
Her latest appearance was in the third season of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, which aired last year.

Popular Nigerian rapper and actor, Ikechukwu Onunaku, has confirmed that his marriage to his wife, Brunella Oscar, is over.
It will be recalled that the former Mohits rapper tied the knot with his lover in May 2021 in a high society wedding that had the movers and shakers of the entertainment industry in attendance.
However, in an unfortunate turn of events, Ikechukwu has revealed that their marriage has ended over irreconcilable differences.
The 40-year-old rapper shared this in a recent interview with media personality, Daddy Freeze, while speaking about his marriage.
He cited gaslighting, fault-finding, and the influence of external parties as factors that contributed to the end of his marriage.

His words,
“My wife and I are no longer together. We separated due to irreconcilable differences. It wasn’t over infidelity. There were too much gaslighting, too much looking for faults, and too much listening to outsiders.
“I tried to save our marriage but I got to a point where I couldn’t tolerate my ex-wife’s excesses anymore and I showed her my other side and we couldn’t bear it.”

A Nigerian X (Twitter) influencer who identifies as @ulxma has shared on the microblogging platform why she thinks the raunchy dance between Nigerian singer Omah Lay and a fan was staged.
The lady believes that the singer’s team inputted the dance behind the silhouette part because they wanted the show to gain traffic.
Recall that in the early hours of today, a video surfaced online that captured Omah Lay dancing on stage with a girl who was said to have attended the concert with her partner.
Sharing her take in multiple tweets, she said;
“That dance looks too choreographed. The stage setting; the way the curtains fall, the centralization of their silhouettes and the sync of their bodies all look rehearsed. He had one shot to give a raunchy show and he wasn’t going to do it with someone he wasn’t sure of. Looks like one of those things that performers do to generate buzz about their show. Nice strategy though ‘cause it’s working. It’s provocative; everyone’s talking about it. It’s trending and more people know his name. Mission accomplished. The chances of finding a random dancer in a specific part of the front row who just so happens to be a perfect dancer who understood the assignment to a T is low. It will also take a pro dancer to understand the angles that produce the right silhouette and maintain it throughout. If it’s not staged, then they put on a great and memorable show and I’m so impressed. Na dance she dance she no kill person.”
