“Harrysong forged my signature to defraud my client” – KCee opens up on beef with artist

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.”

“Nigerians see criticism as ha.te; I am definitely not a tro.ll” – Daniel Regha

Controversial social media commentator, Daniel Regha, has stated that rather than seeing himself as a troll, he believes that Nigerians are unable to take criticism.

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.

“You claim someone inspired you but won’t agree he paved the way for you” – Cynthia Morgan knocks Odumodublvck

Controversial Nigerian rapper Cynthia Morgan has lambasted rapper Odumodublvck for stating that no other musician had paved the path for him.

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.

Odumodu continued, saying that he firmly feels that no musician paved the path for his success in music because of the incident and other difficult life circumstances.

His statement came after Eedris Abdulkareem’s claim that he laid the foundation for Afrobeats stars, Davido, Burna Boy and Wizkid to become successful in the music industry.

Odumodublvck wrote:

“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.

Coming to tell me about paving the way for me? That’s God, brother. No use your ego counter reason my reality, bros. I agree say you inspire me. But bros, you pave the way for nobody. Nobody! I hate when n*ggas try to play God.”

Cynthia Morgan criticised Odumodu for making rather contradictory claims, questioning why he said that someone had inspired him while maintaining that the individual had not paved the path.

She wrote;

“This Odumodu black na real odumodu, you claim someone inspired you but you wouldn’t agree he paved the way for you . What is going on in this country.”

Seun Kuti condemns politicians’ wives for not divorcing their corrupt husbands

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.

Seun Kuti reacts

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.”

“Peter Obi sent me N250,000 for my mother’s burial” – Kanayo

Veteran Nollywood actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo has recounted a fascinating story involving the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, that happened during his mother’s funeral.

He stated that the politician, who is known to be prudent, gave him the sum of N250,000 when he lost his mother in 2011, the exact cost of a cow.

The actor was taken aback by the fact that, given his reputation, some would have expected Obi to give him millions but all he sent was enough money to buy a cow.

However, he said that, whatever the former governor of Anambra handed him, what mattered most was that he took time out of his hectic schedule to contact the man and offer his sympathies.

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.”

“I caught a na.ked lady in my boyfriend’s bed” – Actress, Chioma Okoli opens up on heartbreak

Nigerian actress, Chioma Okoli has revealed her experience of coping with heartbreak after catching her boyfriend with another woman.

Speaking in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, she disclosed how she caught a lady in her boyfriend’s bed.

She stated that she fell in love with a person, spending most of her time with him after she left school.

She believed she had found love in him until she requested to spend a few days with him on his birthday and he refused.

Chioma narrated how she went to his house to surprise him and saw a nude girl on his bed. The 26-year-old actress, said that the experience left her devastated and saddened, and she said that it’s still her biggest breakfast.

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’.”

“I gained admission into the university at age 14” – Ayra Starr (Video)

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].”

“That dance looks too choreographed” – X influencer states why she thinks the raunchy dance with Omah Lay and a fan was staged

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.”

Nigeria’s Male basketball Team, D’Tigers Forced To Withdraw From AfroBasket 2025 Qualifiers Due To Lack Of Funds

Nigeria’s senior men’s national basketball team, D’Tigers, has been compelled to withdraw from the AfroBasket 2025 qualifiers due to financial difficulties, leaving their participation in doubt.

The team’s withdrawal was made public through an announcement on D’Tigers‘ official handle on the X App, disappointing fans across the nation.

Previously scheduled to commence their qualifiers on Saturday, 23 February, against Libya, D’Tigers‘ absence from the tournament is a significant setback.

Reports indicate that the Nigeria Basketball Federation (NBBF) is currently scrambling to secure funds from the Ministry of Sports in a last-ditch effort to enable D’Tigers’ participation.

The AfroBasket 2025 qualification tournament spans from February to November 2024 and serves as the platform for 16 nations to secure their spot in the FIBA AfroBasket 2025.

D’Tigers were drawn in Group B alongside Uganda, Cape Verde, and Libya for the qualifiers’ first window, set to take place in Tunisia.

However, their withdrawal raises concerns about the team’s chances and their ability to defend their title.

Having won the AfroBasket only once, back in 2015, Nigeria’s basketball fans had hoped for a strong return in the upcoming qualifiers.

As fans await further developments, the focus now shifts to the NBBF’s efforts to secure the necessary support and ensure D’Tigers’ participation in international basketball competitions.

“You see some of you all practice selective criticisms” – OAP, Do2dtun speaks on the recent incident between Omah Lay and a fan on stage

Popular Nigerian On Air Personality, Oladotun Ojuolape Kayode professionally known as Do2dtun shares his opinion following the recent incident between Afrobeats singer, Omah Lay and a fan on stage.

Do2dtun

Recall, the Afrobeats singer during his concert in UK called a female fan to the stage as they both engaged in a provocative performance, leaving her boyfriend feeling dejected as he watched the “Soso” crooner and his girlfriend helplessly.

Do2dtun stated that the incident is similar to what occurred in a concert between American actress, Keke Palmer and American singer, Usher. He explained that netizens are quick to discriminate people’s action based on their status and popularity.

Omah Lay

He tweeted,

“This Omah lay incident is apparently the same thing that happened with the Keke and Usher’s episode maybe not as bad but instead the guy was called insecure for getting angry. This case, they blamed the woman instead. You see some of you all practice selective criticism”

He noted that people disapprove the lady’s action because she is not loved by everyone or popular; people acted the same way toward Keke’s boyfriend for being angry after she danced with Usher.

“Once it’s a person you mostly love, it’s okay but once it’s someone you all hardly know, you will call them a whore, low life etc.”

Popular Nigerian actress Iyabo Ojo has replied to a troll who called her desperate for constantly professing love and showing off her partner, Paul Okoye.

The actress shared on her Instagram page a video of an artwork that contained her and her partner to reaffirm her love for him.

The troll who appear to have grown tired of the actress’s constant show of affection to her partner, took to her comment section and called her desperate.

The commenter who identified as @chiamzy222 wrote;

“This woman is so desperate eeh, every time forever is the deal whereby this man has never said this for once, nne biko slow down ok😂😂, na Igbo man you are dealing with o, na man supposed dey do all these obey wey you dey do, nawao😂😂, forever KO, eternity ni”
