Revoo Nigeria

REVOO is a brand from Transsion Holdings—the parent company of TECNO, Infinix, itel, Oraimo etc. Established in 2023 and has expanded to over 10 countries, and now has more than 250 stores worldwide. It officially launched in Nigeria in 2025 with the opening of three stores in Lagos. REVOO Nigeria aims to revolutionise urban transportation with its range of electric motorcycles. 

REVOO’s entry into the Nigerian market marks a strategic move by Transsion Holdings to diversify its portfolio and capitalise on the growing demand for sustainable and cost-effective transportation solutions. Electric motorcycles offer a compelling alternative to traditional petrol-powered bikes, promising lower running costs, reduced emissions, and quieter operation.

The brand is launching with a range of models designed to cater to different needs and preferences. The REVOO lineup includes the A11, A12, C32, and E52 models, each offering varying performance characteristics and price points. 

A11: Rule Urban Roads

REVOO Nigeria

The A11 is designed as an accessible and practical entry-level scooter. Its 1000W motor and 60V21Ah battery provide a reliable 70km range and a top speed of 45km/h, making it perfectly suited for short daily commutes. Its charging capability is 5-7 hours. Key features highlight its lightweight construction and beginner-friendly nature, ensuring ease of handling for new riders in urban environments.

A12: As Strong, As Style

REVOO Nigeria

Building on the entry-level formula, the A12 offers a slight but meaningful upgrade for urban riding. It uses a higher voltage 72V21Ah battery paired with a 1000W motor, which extends its range to 80km and increases the top speed to 50km/h. And the charging time is 5-7 hours. It is characterized by its slightly extended mileage, smooth riding experience, and low energy consumption, making it an efficient choice for navigating city streets.

C32: Power Your Journey

REVOO Nigeria

The C32 is a robust motorcycle built for more demanding use. It features a significantly more powerful 1800W motor and a larger 72V35Ah battery, enabling a 90km range and a 60km/h top speed. The charging time is 5-7 hours to support the long range. Its core features include stronger performance, making it particularly suitable for delivery riders and capable of handling the challenges of typical Nigerian roads with greater ease.

E52: Glide With Power

REVOO Nigeria

Positioned as the premium performance model, the E52 is engineered for power and long-distance travel. It is equipped with a massive 3000W motor and a high-capacity 96V35Ah battery, achieving an impressive 120km range and a top speed of 80km/h. Its defining features are its long-distance capability just with 5-7 hours charging time, premium performance, and powerful acceleration, catering to riders who require the highest level of motorcycle functionality.

Each REVOO motorcycle features durable design, extended battery capacity for daily commuting, significantly reduced operating costs (as low as ₦70 per day), and a comprehensive 1 year or 6,000 km warranty. Every showroom also functions as a service center, ensuring that riders have reliable technical support and spare parts availability from day one.

REVOO’s entry into Nigeria is expected to boost employment across sales, marketing, after-sales service, and technical support, strengthening local capacity within the growing green-technology sector. The company has positioned itself to support Nigeria’s transition toward sustainable transportation solutions by combining global engineering expertise with locally driven implementation.

With its backing from Transsion Holdings and a range of models to choose from, REVOO is well-positioned to capture a significant share of the growing electric motorcycle market in Nigeria. The brand’s focus on affordability, performance, and a physical retail presence suggests a long-term commitment to the Nigerian market.

Nigerian actress Nkechi Blessing broke down in tears as she recounted how she was body-shamed after an unflattering photo of her at the gym surfaced online.

Speaking on the Honest Bunch podcast, the actress revealed that she had the lady who secretly took the picture without her consent arrested.

The viral gym photo, which made the rounds on social media, sparked mixed reactions from internet users.

Nkechi, visibly emotional during the interview, said the image was taken without her permission, despite her long-standing confidence in her natural body as a mother of a six-year-old.

She criticised women who undergo cosmetic surgery yet mock those who maintain their natural bodies, describing the behaviour as hypocritical and hurtful.

According to her, she went out of her way to track down the lady responsible for taking the photo and ensured she was apprehended.

Nkechi also accused the management of the gym of initially refusing to release information that could have helped identify the culprit, a move she found disappointing.

“This is my body, this is how I’ve always been. I have a 6-year-old son. You get BBL, you dey snap me wey get natural body, are you stupid? I found her and got her arrested… na because I no come online?” She said

Her revelation has reignited conversations about body shaming, consent, and privacy in public spaces, with many Nigerians expressing support for her stance.

“My father regretted sponsoring my education after I became a skit maker” – Sabinus

Nigerian comedian Emmanuel Ejekwu, popularly known as Sabinus, has opened up about the initial resistance he faced from his father over his decision to pursue a career in comedy.

Speaking in an interview with VJ Adams, Sabinus revealed that his father always wanted him to become a lawyer.

However, after he was unable to secure admission to study law, he settled for Linguistics and Communication Studies at the University of Port Harcourt.

It was during his time on campus that he discovered his flair for comedy and began experimenting with skit-making.

According to him, his father was disappointed when he found out he had ventured into comedy, expressing regret over sponsoring his education and dismissing the craft as a stupid business.

Recounting the tense moment, Sabinus said;

“At first, my dad never wanted me to be what I am today. He wanted me to be a lawyer. I tried my best, but I couldn’t secure a law admission, so I had to settle for Linguistics and Communication Studies at UniPort. It was on the campus that I saw skit making, and I decided to try it out. Money wasn’t coming.

After I graduated, my dad never knew I was a comedian because I was hiding it. It was one more year after school that he started seeing me on comedy show posters. My sisters confirmed it to him, and he was very furious. He fumed, Which comedy? Stupid business. Look at the boy I sent to become a lawyer.”

Sabinus added that his father eventually softened his stance and became supportive especially after he began making money from his craft and even shared part of his earnings with him.

“I have achieved beyond my dreams since leaving my 9–5” – Tems opens up

Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Tems has opened up about her remarkable rise to global stardom, admitting that her current level of success has far exceeded anything she once imagined while working a regular corporate 9–5 job.

The revelation came during an interactive session with fans on X (Twitter), where the Burning crooner responded to questions about her career and future aspirations.

When one fan asked, “What are you currently looking forward to? Also, would you say you’ve achieved all of your dreams prior to stardom?”

Tems replied with humility and gratitude, saying, “I’m looking forward to whatever the Lord has in store, and honestly, I’ve achieved beyond my dreams from when I had a 9–5.” 

Her response quickly went viral, resonating deeply with fans who have followed her journey from a young independent artist in Lagos to a global music force.

Tems quit her job as a digital marketer in 2018 to chase her passion for music full-time. Though the decision came with uncertainty, it ultimately became the turning point of her career.

Her breakout moment arrived in 2020 through her feature on Wizkid’s global hit Essence. The song, later remixed with Justin Bieber, soared to No. 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and introduced her to international audiences.

From there, Tems’ rise became unstoppable. In 2023, she made history as the first female Afrobeats artist to win a Grammy, earning the award for her contribution to Future’s Wait for U.

She followed this with another milestone at the 65th Annual Grammy Awards, where she won the inaugural Best African Music Performance category for her solo track Born in the Wild.

Man shares how lady’s humility on second date left him impressed

A young Nigerian man has stirred reactions online after sharing how a moment on his second date completely changed the way he sees the woman he has been talking to.

Narrating the experience, he explained that he took the lady to ShopRite, and they decided to stop by Cold Stone for ice cream.

Confidently, he ordered two medium cups only to be told the price was ₦14,000 per cup. Trying not to look embarrassed, he kept quiet so he wouldn’t appear like a fool.

To his surprise, the lady immediately intervened, saying the price was way too high and suggested they get something cheaper instead.

According to him, she didn’t act embarrassed, entitled, or dramatic, just genuinely considerate.

She then took him to a frozen yoghurt spot nearby where they bought cones for ₦2,500 each, and she was perfectly content with the change of plan.

The man, who admitted he had been delaying the relationship because he didn’t want to rush and regret later, said that the lady’s humility and practicality during that small moment shook him.

He confessed that the gesture made him see her differently and even consider that she might be ‘the one,’ though he wondered if he was overthinking it.

His story has since gone viral, with many Nigerians praising the lady’s behaviour and saying such small acts often reveal a person’s true character.

Built to highlight how TECNO’s cutting-edge AI ecosystem elevates every meaningful moment in the lives of young Africans, the brand is rolling out a dynamic lineup of creative, interactive, and culturally engaging experiences throughout AFCON 2025.

Leading the campaign is the debut of TECNO’s new musical brand film, also titled “Power Your Moment”, a vivid and vibrant narrative showcasing how the TECNO AI ecosystem fuels the pivotal moments of the young African’s everyday life. Amplifying this spirit is a standout collaboration with Afrobeats sensation Joeboy, TECNO Power Moment Featured Artist. His original soundtrack and cultural influence infuse the campaign with the unmistakable rhythm and energy of today’s African youth.

TECNO’s new brand campaign is rooted in a powerful insight: Africa’s young generation stands at a pivotal moment. They are ambitious, restless, and determined, a rising force refusing to be defined by limitations. They dream bigger, work harder, and demand tools that match their aspirations. Recognizing this unsettled energy and transforms it into momentum, TECNO now provides powerful cutting-edge AI product ecosystem and technology that doesn’t just keep up with their ambitions but propels them forward.

The heart of the new brand films tells how TECNO AI integrates naturally into the daily lives of these young changemakers through the brand’s ecosystem of products. The narrative unfolds through four key emotional territories such as Power Your Joy, Power Your Rise, Power Your Future, and Power Your Creativity. Each represents pivotal moments where intention transforms into action through TECNO AI features.

From a Moroccan family enjoying a superior match experience with TECNO AI glasses and TECNO Slim, to a group of high-net-worth African leaders powering the younger generation of entrepreneurs; from a teenager studying more efficiently with TECNO AI support, and a group of young content creators leveling up their craft through TECNO AI-powered devices – every scene brings the theme to life through authentic yet epic moments. Together, they illustrate how Africans are harnessing technology with determination and passion to explore and build a brighter future.

“TECNO’s Power Your Moment manifesto speaks directly to the emotional core of this generation: their refusal to wait, their drive to prove themselves, and their belief that their time is now. TECNO AI and TECNO AI ecosystem doesn’t just enable, it powers the unstoppable momentum of Africa’s youth rising.” said, Jack Guo, General Manager of TECNO.

From screen to street, TECNO is translating this message into tangible experiences across the continent. TECNO understands that inspiration is most powerful when paired with real interaction, which is why the brand is bringing its technology directly to young Africans.

Online, AFCON-exclusive AI features will offer fans new tools to create, connect, and express their passion in ways that feel personal, creative, and authentic.

TECNO’s commitment goes deeper than access—it’s about recognition and empowerment. As part of its AFCON 2025 campaign, TECNO is set to launch #PowerYourMoment – a Pan-African creator initiative celebrating creativity, culture, and personal aspiration across the continent. Running from November 28 to December 5, TECNO invites young creators to reinterpret four emotional themes -Moment of Glory, Joy, Rising, Creativity-through photos and videos featuring TECNO devices.

A TikTok LIVE challenge will take place from November 28 to December 11 , with a strong focus on Morocco, Algeria and Egypt, offering a dynamic stage for creators to express personal achievement, optimism, and creative identity.

“No wedding took place” – Mohbad’s father claims, says singer called off the wedding over inf!delity

Amid ongoing controversies surrounding the late singer Mohbad, his father has clarified claims regarding his relationship with Cynthia Omowunmi Adebanjo.

In a recorded statement, Mohbad’s father firmly denied that any traditional wedding took place, saying he only attended an introduction ceremony.

He explained that the introduction was meant to formally meet Wunmi’s family after she claimed to be pregnant.

According to him, the late singer initially planned to formalize the marriage but later called it off after alleging that Cynthia was unfaithful.

The father also revealed that these events prompted him to request a DNA test to confirm the child’s parentage.

“When my son was alive and Cynthia claimed to be pregnant, I felt it was necessary to meet her family properly. When we got to the venue, I saw a lot of the lady’s family members sitting there. We completed the introduction, and I met my son’s father-in-law for the first time. But I’m shocked to hear claims that a traditional wedding happened without my knowledge or even the presence of the family head. Who collected the bride price? He said he caught her with another man, informed his friend Myson and his elder sibling and mother, and then decided to tell me. That was why he called off the marriage plans.” He said

His statement adds clarity to the ongoing saga surrounding Mohbad’s personal life, and family concerns following his untimely death.

The National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) has issued a stern warning to its members against posting negative content on social media that could tarnish the image of the Scheme or Nigeria.

Corps members were urged instead to use social media to positively reflect both the NYSC and the country.

The caution came from Brigadier GeneralOlakunle Nafiu, Director General of NYSC, on Friday while addressing the 2025 Batch C Corps members at the NYSC Delta State Orientation Camp in Issele-Uku.

A statement shared via the NYSC official X (Twitter) handle noted that any negative social media posts by Corps members would attract sanctions.

In addition to the social media warning, Brigadier General Nafiu advised members to avoid unauthorized travel, strictly follow camp instructions, and respect the cultural values of their host communities.

“Follow simple instructions, be obedient, go for your biometrics and your Community Development Service. Learn and respect the cultural values of your host communities and do not misrepresent us at your place of primary assignment.” He said

The Delta State Coordinator, Mr. John Kwaghe, presented a camp situation report, revealing that 2,101 Corps members 944 male and 1,157 female had been deployed to the state.

He noted that camp activities were progressing smoothly, with full participation from both officials and Corps members, who demonstrated a high level of discipline.

This directive follows a similar warning given by Brigadier General Nafiu to the 2025 Batch C Corps Members in Rivers State, where he urged them to uphold the core values of the NYSC patriotism, integrity, efficiency, transparency, and commitment throughout their service year and beyond.

Lady shares message from her dad complaining about the slangs and Pidgin used in their family group chat

A young lady has sparked mixed reactions online after sharing a message her father sent to their family group chat, expressing his frustration over the heavy use of slang and Pidgin English among family members.

In the lengthy text, her father raised concerns about what he described as the street, uneducated language style frequently used in the group.

He noted that many members of the family are graduates, yet their communication does not reflect the level of education they possess.

Emphasizing the need for change, he added that adopting coherent and grammatically correct language would better reflect the maturity and status of everyone in the group.

“There is one negative thing I have observed in the language style on this platform. The language style is usually that of street uneducated elements. Yet I know that most, if not all in the house, are graduates. Unfortunately, the language style herein does not reflect this truism. The need for a change have become imperative, a decideratum. Let coherent
grammatical language style prevail to reflect maturity and status of members of the house. I come in peace.” His text read.

His message has since generated buzz online, with many amused by his formal tone, while others agreed that Pidgin and slang, though fun, can sometimes overshadow clear communication.

Bukayo Saka, Arsenal’s winger, has reportedly proposed to his long-term girlfriend, Tolami Benson.

According to reports, the proposal took place at a luxury hotel in London, a move that has delighted both fans and followers of the couple.

Saka and Benson, who are both age mates, have been in a relationship for around five years. Despite their shared history, they have largely kept their romance out of the public eye.

Their first widely observed appearance together was during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar. Over the years, they gradually became more comfortable showing support publicly.

For instance, Tolami Benson was seen cheering Saka on during Euro 2024, and earlier this year, the couple shared a pitch-side kiss after England’s draw with Slovenia, a moment that attracted significant attention.

Now, the pair are reportedly planning to spend the rest of their lives together.

Saka is said to have gone all out for the proposal, reportedly presenting Tolami with an absolutely enormous engagement ring during a special and intimate evening.

Below are some of the comments;

“Aww this is beautiful! Congrats to Bukayo and Tolami — wishing them a lifetime of love and happiness.”

“They’ve kept their relationship private for years, so it’s lovely to see them finally sharing this moment.”

“Can’t wait to see the wedding photos, these two are such a stunning couple.”

“Tolami has been supporting him through everything… this proposal was well deserved.”

A set of rules shared by new parents for guests visiting their newborn has sparked conversation, after the detailed guidelines surfaced on social media.

The couple, who recently welcomed a baby boy, put together a warm but firm note to help protect their infant’s health and comfort while ensuring visits remain positive and respectful.

In the message, the parents expressed excitement about family and friends meeting their little one, but emphasized that certain boundaries were necessary.

Guests are asked to use hand sanitizer immediately upon entry, and to avoid touching or kissing the baby’s cheeks and mouth.

They also made it clear that their son’s full name, Irewamiri, should be used, not ‘Ire,’ which they gently corrected in the list.

Another rule that caught attention was their request for visitors to speak in a normal, clear voice around the baby.

They discouraged exaggerated baby talk or sounds like ‘jigigijigi yigiyigi,’ explaining that they want their child to get used to hearing regular speech patterns.

The parents further noted that they were not seeking unsolicited advice about raising their baby, stating they already had a strong support system.

They also asked guests to avoid shaking the baby’s hands or touching his ears, prioritizing the infant’s comfort and safety.

Despite the firmness of some rules, the note ended on a warm and appreciative tone, thanking guests for understanding and expressing joy at the chance for loved ones to bond with their newborn.

The list has generated mixed reactions online, while some users agreed with the new parents, others debated how much structure is appropriate for visiting a newborn.

“Children are an expensive subscription, they are not from God” – Izzy Ogbeide (WATCH)

By
Sarah Uwaje
-

Controversial content creator Izzy Ogbeide has sparked reactions on social media after she mentioned in a video that children are neither blessings nor gifts from God.

The mother of three, known for her outspoken views, described children instead as an expensive subscription.

In the clip, Izzy argued that although society often refers to children as blessings, the reality is that they come with enormous responsibilities that many parents struggle to handle.

She maintained that children are created by their parents’ actions and not handed down by God, like many claim.

Izzy went on to highlight the financial and emotional demands of raising children, noting that parents often underestimate the level of sacrifice involved.

She listed expenses such as swimming lessons, football training, feeding, and daily needs as obligations that weigh heavily on families, especially those already battling financial hardship.

According to her, the struggles many parents face contradict the idea that children are divine gifts.

She claimed that if God truly sent children as blessings, parents would naturally be equipped with the resources needed to care for them without struggle.

“Children are not blessings, and they are not from God. Yes, I don’t care if you believe it or not. Children are from you, not God. They are not gifts. Children are an expensive subscription you can’t return or cancel. Children are what you make, they come from your hard work, not from God. What comes from God is something you don’t merit or work for. The Bible even says the blessing of the Lord adds no sorrow. Children bring responsibility, stress, and bills, so they are something you create. Do you know there are people who can’t even feed their children? They have to beg before their kids eat. If children were truly from God, He would first bless the parents, whether they work or not, before giving them children. You don’t get it? or do you want me to speak in tongues before you understand?” She said

A Nigerian mum has sparked amusement online after revealing that her young daughter failed her Christian Religious Studies (CRS) exam for confidently saying that Jesus was born in Nigeria.

The little girl, who reportedly performed excellently in all her other subjects, missed only one CRS question, the one asking where Jesus was born.

Instead of answering Bethlehem, she boldly relocated the biblical birthplace to Nigeria.

In the viral TikTok video shared by her mother, the woman is seen quizzing her daughter at home to understand what went wrong.

The child answered several biblical questions correctly, showing she had a solid grasp of the subject.

However, when her mother asked again where Jesus was born, the girl confidently replied, Jesus was born in Nigeria, repeating the same answer that got her marked down in the test.

Her mother burst into laughter, joking that her daughter had relocated Jesus from Bethlehem to Lagos, a remark that has entertained many online.

The video has drawn different remarks from Nigerians who found the child’s confidence both adorable and hilarious.

Below are some of the comments;

“The confidence is unmatched! This baby really said Jesus is a Nigerian citizen.”

“She answered everything else correctly but carried Jesus to Lagos”

“Maybe she meant Jesus was born in her heart. Teacher no suppose mark that one wrong na.”

A young Nigerian woman working in Egypt has expressed her frustration after her brother rejected the ₦50,000 she sent to support his wife’s medical treatment.

According to her, he insisted on a higher amount, stating that he expected between ₦500,000 and ₦1 million simply because she lives abroad.

The woman, who is the youngest of seven children, said her brother contacted her urgently to request financial assistance for his wife’s hospital bills, so she sent the amount she could afford.

However, her brother reportedly dismissed the support, assuming she had access to substantial funds due to her relocation outside Nigeria.

Sharing her ordeal, the woman explained that she works in Cairo as a house help, earning about ₦230,000 a month.

She revealed that she sleeps in her employer’s kitchen, where her belongings are also stored, and has been struggling to save after recently completing repayment of the debt owed to the person who sponsored her travel.

“I came from a family of seven, and I’m the last. My brother’s wife got sick, and he pleaded that he needed money to take her to the hospital. I sent this man ₦50,000. He said he was expecting between ₦500,000 and ₦1 million. Where do I wan see am? Dem think say as I dey abroad I dey see money. Na just Egypt I dey. I dey Cairo dey do househelp.

Calling herself a fiercely protective mother, Sophia said her first reaction was emotional, but she felt compelled to speak up in defense of her daughter.

She stressed that, contrary to online insinuations, her daughter is a happy, healthy, and well-rounded child, and anyone who has met her can confirm this.

Sophia went on to reveal that she has been the primary caregiver for the past five years, handling all expenses except school fees, which have been covered by the child’s paternal grandparent for the last three years.

She added that she has not received child support from the child’s father during this period, but emphasized that her daughter knows no lack and is being raised in a safe and nurturing environment.

Sophia also disclosed that she recently waived all outstanding child support payments and relinquished any future claims, a decision she said was mutually welcomed by all parties.

According to her, this move affirms her commitment to her daughter’s happiness and financial stability.

Despite their personal challenges, Momodu maintained that she has never denied the child’s father access or a relationship with their daughter. She said she simply prioritizes her child’s safety and structured routines.

Sophia ended her statement with a plea to the public: “Moving forward, I kindly request that my innocent child be left out of false narratives and stories. Let’s channel our energy towards things that are more profitable and healthy.”

The widow of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa Promise Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad, has taken legal steps to secure his estate and prevent any unauthorized claims.

Omowunmi Cynthia Aloba filed an official notice at the Lagos State High Court, Ikeja, asserting her position as the lawful beneficiary alongside her son.

According to a letter dated November 19, 2025, and submitted through her legal representatives, Salawu, Akingbolu & Co., Omowunmi notified the Probate Registrar that she had filed Form 5 and Form 6 documents that ensure Letters of Administration cannot be issued to anyone outside the recognized beneficiaries.

The notice, signed by I. P. Awo (Esq.), also formally identifies her as Mohbad’s legal wife and the mother of his only surviving child, Master Liam Aloba.

She further stated that public notices were published in two national newspapers in November 2025 to guard against any fraudulent or unauthorized attempts to claim the late singer’s assets.

Her lawyers emphasized that the notice remains valid in the court’s records and must be upheld until the estate is duly administered.

The legal team expressed firm confidence that no irregular claims would be entertained while Mohbad’s legitimate wife and son are still alive, maintaining that the process must follow established probate rules to protect the family’s rights.

UK-based Nigerian man f@tally $tabbed in Norwich student accommodation

A UK-based Nigerian man has been identified as the victim of a fatal stabbing inside a student accommodation block in Norwich.

The deceased, Uchenna ‘Uche’ Okirie, believed to be in his 30s, was known as a British Red Cross volunteer and a student connected to the University of East Anglia (UEA).

Okirie was thought to be a current or former postgraduate student at UEA’s School of International Development.

He published a research paper last year under the university’s name examining the impact of climate change on health outcomes in sub-Saharan Africa.

However, the university said initial checks did not locate his student record, though they confirmed that a small number of their students reside in the accommodation.

Emergency services were called to Somerleyton House at about 5 a.m. on Saturday. On arrival, officers and paramedics found Okirie with a stab wound to the chest. Despite efforts to resuscitate him, he was pronounced dead at the scene.

Police subsequently launched a murder investigation and arrested 27-year-old Congolese national Benjamin Katabana.

Residents of Somerleyton House said they were jolted awake by a fire alarm early that morning. One neighbour told the Eastern Daily Press that they saw people outside in their pyjamas and noticed several police cars before any ambulance arrived, immediately sensing that something serious had happened.

Okirie’s social media activity shows he has taken part in various volunteer projects with the British Red Cross and also served as an international student ambassador for Nigeria.

In a statement, a UEA spokesperson said the university had contacted all known students living in Somerleyton House and would continue to offer them full support during the difficult period following the tragedy.

The conversation offered a rare glimpse into her thoughts on marriage, family, and the kind of life she imagines for herself.

Despite her desire for grandeur, Liquorose emphasised that she still hopes to carve out one intimate moment away from the public eye.

“Growing up, I used to be that girl who could get married, and nobody would know. However, those dreams have since changed. At one point, I thought… I want a two-week wedding. I want something loud because it’s going to be a lot. liquorose is taken! Officially. I have to do that. I have to party for like five days before the wedding. party as a single girl, just have fun. I want something loud. But I would have one celebration for myself that nobody will even have to see. It would just be me and whoever the person would be. Just me and him.” She said

In a recent interview, the former Big Brother Naija winner revealed that she feels confident raising children independently and is willing to have as many as three kids on her own.

I don’t want to get married, I have worked so hard, I think I can take care of myself, I can take care of three kids. I am a goal-oriented person; I always set goals for myself.

After three road crashes in two months, Ogun State government moves to prosecute DJ Chicken

The Ogun State Government has announced that it is fast-tracking the prosecution of entertainer Ademola Abiodun, popularly known as DJ Chicken, following a series of road traffic incidents linked to him in recent weeks.

In a statement released on X (Twitter), the Ministry of Justice said the pending case against DJ Chicken arising from a 1 November 2025 crash in Sagamu is now being prioritised for prompt arraignment.

According to the ministry, the incident involved a collision with two motorcycles, leaving a rider and a female passenger seriously injured.

Officials allege that he attempted to flee the scene before being confronted by bystanders, while police opened an investigation and ensured medical care for the victims.

The ministry further disclosed that another crash occurred on 23 November 2025 in Lekki, Lagos State, where Mr Abiodun was reportedly involved in a lone-vehicle incident that nearly struck pedestrians.

According to the Ministry of Justice, yesterday’s crash is said to be his third in two months, and video evidence exists for at least two of the incidents.

The government said the pattern of behaviour demonstrates a special danger to society and warrants criminal prosecution rather than treating the collisions as purely civil matters.

Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Oluwasina Ogungbade, SAN, has therefore directed officials to expedite action on the Sagamu case.

The ministry said it is collaborating closely with the Ogun State Police Command to bring the matter before the courts.

The government added that its intervention is necessary to protect the public, citing what it described as an organic outcry over DJ Chicken’s continued driving following the repeated incidents.

Paystack fires CTO Ezra Olubi amid allegations of $exual misconduct and @buse against minors, and the resurfacing of disturbing tweets made by him

Nigerian fintech company Paystack has terminated the employment of its co-founder and Chief Technology Officer, Ezra Olubi, following public allegations of sexual misconduct involving a junior employee.

Olubi confirmed the termination in a blog post on Sunday, November 23, 2025, stating that the decision was made before the company’s investigation had been completed.

He claimed he was not given a meeting or an opportunity to respond prior to the termination, which he said may have contravened the terms of his suspension and Paystack’s internal policies.

Ezra added that his legal team is reviewing the process and may take further action.

The controversy began in mid-November after a social media post alleging abusive behavior by Olubi went viral.

Internet users subsequently resurfaced explicit tweets from earlier in his career, dating from 2009 to 2013, which contained sexual content and jokes described by many as predatory.

Paystack, acquired by Stripe in 2020, initially suspended Olubi and opened a formal investigation. The company stated that it had established a review process and intended to appoint an independent investigator.

As of now, Paystack has not issued a new public statement following Olubi’s blog post, and it remains unclear whether Stripe will comment further. Any legal action by Olubi could lead to new disclosures that clarify the facts and company procedures surrounding the termination.

Family who d!sowned their teen daughter over false HIV rumours later learns she has diabetes

By
Sarah Uwaje
-

A heartbreaking story shared on X (Twitter) has sparked reactions after revealing how an 18-year-old girl was falsely accused of sleeping with men and contracting HIV.

Only for medical tests to show she was suffering from a serious but unrelated health condition after her family had accused her of bringing shame to the family

According to the health worker who narrated the incident, the teenager had been battling progressive weight loss, loss of appetite, and abdominal swelling.

Rather than seeking medical attention, her family and community concluded that she must have contracted HIV through promiscuity, she was stigmatized, rejected, and eventually disowned.

When her symptoms worsened, she was presented at a Primary Health Centre (PHC), where routine tests were carried out.

However, the results contradicted every accusation made against her she did not have HIV, she was not pregnant but her blood sugar levels were extremely high prompting further urgent testing.

After follow up tests, the health worker concluded that the girl was most likely suffering from Type 1 Diabetes and requires immediate medical attention.

When the health centre contacted her parents to discuss the diagnosis, the teenager’s father refused to come, he reportedly sent someone else, insisting he was done with her.

The mother had been crying since the girl was thrown out of the house. After persistent outreach, the father was convinced to return to the facility, where evidence showed his daughter had been wrongfully judged.

The health worker revealed that the person who started the rumour was a close family member, and the community had accepted the accusation simply because they noticed her weight loss, vomiting and a swollen abdomen without considering the possibility of a medical condition.

The health worker concluded the post with a powerful reflection that stigma, especially when tied to misinformation, can destroy lives even before illness does.
