Controversial Nigerian singer, Habeeb Olalomi Oyegbile, widely known as Portable, has called out music producer, Samklef for using his reputation to gain clout.
The singer of “Zazzo” took to social media to publicly criticise the artist and question him about why he decided to give up on his musical career.
He became even more irate as he continued, accusing Samklef of having a poor character and being rejected by both Davido and WizKid.
He claimed to have watched Samklef online and was aware of his bad belle status as he urged his followers to warn the music producer to steer clear of his path.
He continued by probing the producer-turned-artiste about his failing music career and the reasons for his decision to give it up, emphasising that the same negative character was the root of his failure.
According to Portable, Samklef doesn’t have a job other than pursuing social influence and he was attempting to exploit him and his boys to create a trend.
In other news, Anthony Joshua, has revealed why he still lives with his mother, Yeta Odusanya, at the age of 34.
This comes after he moved back into his mother’s two-bedroom ex-council house in 2017 after earning a whooping £15 million from defeating Wladimir Klitschko, beating Robert Helenius in August, and currently preparing for his next fight in 2024.
Speaking in an interview with BBC’s Louis Theroux, the 34-year-old said he still lives with his mother because she is very important to him and the Nigerian culture encourages communal living. He added that his future wife would struggle to convince him to move out.
Nigerian producer and singer, Phillip Kayode Moses, professionally known as Pheelz, has opined that Nigerian artistes are becoming repetitive in their style of music.
According to him, musicians are losing their true love for what they do and seem to be losing their creative soul.
While appearing on a segment of ‘The Dadaboy Show’, which was presented by media personality Ehiz, Pheelz discussed his insights.
Pheelz claims that contemporary Nigerian musicians are less engaged in the creative process and more focused on the lucrative music industry.
He bemoaned the lack of distinction between artists, business owners, and manufacturers.
He, however, warned that marketing strategies are fleeting, as he emphasized that only good music will stand the test of time.
Pheelz said;
“We [Nigerian artistse] are losing that love for music. It’s starting to become manufacturing. It’s starting to feel like we’re manufacturing soaps like we are making iPhones.
It’s starting to feel repetitive like we’re losing our creative sauce and our creative essence. It’s becoming work. Now, it’s harder to promote than to even make the music. Now, it’s becoming about promotion and marketing, not even about the art of it.
I don’t know about anybody else but for me, it’s about the music. I think that’s the most important thing. That’s the one thing that will stand the test of time. Marketing strategies will come and go. We shouldn’t be really focused on that. The way we market music now was not the same way we used to market music.
When people say stuff like, ‘It doesn’t even matter if the music sounds good, if you no get money to push am e no go blow.’ That kind of thing hurts me. I’m like, then what are we doing? If we don’t really exalt good music anymore and we just follow clout and hype what are we doing? Are we really making music then?”
Nigerian actor, Bolanle Ninalowo has caused a stir online after he shared a picture of his colleague, popular Nigerian actress, Damilola Adegbite.
The picture which he shared on his official page on Instagram with the caption “ Tag her..“ has gotten people talking.
Some suggested that the actor has moved on from his failed marriage and is currently interested in a relationship with the actress he posted.
It will be recalled that the actor recently announced that he has parted ways with his wife, citing the reason behind the separation as ‘irreconcilable differences’.
A few weeks earlier, he shared an image containing a text explaining that he does not need to share his own side of the story, acknowledging that life happened and he has healed.
His fans were, however, quick to notice that the actress whose picture he shared is a divorcee. In their opinion, both thespians’ marriages did not work out.
Damilola Adegbite, who was formerly married to Ghanaian actor Chris Attoh, got divorced in September 2017, citing the reason as love wasn’t enough.
Meanwhile, fans of the actor have advised him not to rush into a relationship, and that he should keep his relationship off social media.
While others believe that one day the actor would reunite with his family, because he has once separated from his wife.

A Nigerian pastor has stirred controversy on social media after his sermon, which connected wealth accumulation to paying tithes.
During a church service, he promised that anybody who sows seeds and pays their tithe will undoubtedly become a billionaire.
He chastised Christians who fail to pay their tithes, comparing it to stealing. According to the clergyman, failing to pay tithes is tantamount to robbing God and hence qualifies as theft.
In his words,
“If you’re not paying your tithe, you’re a thief and you have robbed God. You sow seed and you pay your tithe.
That power of tithe will come, the power of the seed will join together and you become a billionaire. People would be coming to borrow money from your hand. People would be crying but it’s not for you.”
This message strirred reactions from netizens who did not believe him. Read some comments below.
Ajuba wrote; “By all means, avoid these preachers. For your own good, and for the sake of your soul. God is not in church, he’s in you! Spirituality is not a gift that can be impacted. It’s within you. Don’t let them scare you with hell, your pastor’s are the ones eating the tithes/offerings.”

In a shocking incident that unfolded in Igbere, Abia State, a 35-year-old man known as “Yellow” was apprehended by an enraged mob for allegedly raping a 5-year-old girl inside a room.
The suspect, who was brutally beaten by the angry villagers, confessed to the crime, revealing that he lured the innocent child with groundnuts.
Begging for forgiveness, “Yellow” claimed that he was influenced by the “Devil” to commit this heinous act, attributing his heightened desires to the chilling weather brought about by the rain.
According to his account, he was sitting with friends, enjoying groundnuts, when he entered the building to retrieve something.
It was there that he encountered the young girl and offered her some groundnut seeds, leading her to follow him inside, where the assault took place.
The assaulted child was quickly rushed to the hospital by her family for immediate medical attention.
Meanwhile, the 35-year-old rapist was handed over to local security personnel who will subsequently transfer him to the police for a comprehensive investigation.
This incident comes merely four months after another appalling case in Umuahia, where a 37-year-old man named Chiemela Ekeke was sentenced to life imprisonment for the rape of a 4-year-old girl.
As of now, the Abia State Police Command has not officially acknowledged the incident. Efforts to reach the Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Maureen Chinaka, for a statement have been unsuccessful.
The community eagerly awaits justice for the young victim.
Professional British-Nigerian boxer, Anthony Joshua, has revealed why he still lives with his mother, Yeta Odusanya, at the age of 34.
This comes after he moved back into his mother’s two-bedroom ex-council house in 2017 after earning a whooping £15 million from defeating Wladimir Klitschko, beating Robert Helenius in August, and currently preparing for his next fight in 2024.

That’s why I keep myself to myself. ‘You put all this pressure on yourself to come and be this big star and be perfect.
‘I’m telling you, they’ll pull you down. The higher you are, the bigger the drop.”

After 149 days in detention, Former Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefielehas finally been produced in court today, Wednesday 8th November 2023, for a hearing on his bail application.
Dressed in a yellow kaftan and cap, Emefiele arrived flanked by EFCC operatives at 12:30pm.
Last week, Justice Olukayode Adeniyi had ordered Emefiele’s release or for him to be brought to court for the bail hearing.
The EFCC had failed to comply with the order of the FHC directing it to produce Emefiele in court on Monday or release him unconditionally.
Following the disobedience by the commission, the court restated its order and adjourned proceedings till Wednesday.
However, the EFCC complied with the order as Emefiele was led into the court by heavily armed operatives.
This follows months of custody by security agencies, with formal charges now being presented.
Emefiele faces accusations of financial crimes during his tenure as CBN Governor from 2014 to 2022.
He has been in detention since June 10, charged with procurement fraud. However, his trial has stalled since August when the Department of State Services failed to present him in court to enter a plea.

An abroad-based Nigerian lady has shared her heartwarming experience with a foreign professor who went above and beyond to assist her.
The lady, using the X handle @xoxo_maris_u, revealed that she had sprained her ankle and informed her lecturer that she wouldn’t be able to make it to class.
Interestingly, he offered to pick her up at home, provided crutches to aid her movement, and even offered to drive her wherever she needed to go.

The lady was evidently surprised by the professor’s generous gesture because such acts are not common in Nigeria and humorously stated that ‘Nigeria will crumble’.
She tweeted,
“Told my professor that I can’t make it to class cuz I sprained my ankle.
Baba is offering to drive from his house to come and give me crutches. And he’s even offering to be driving me around to anywhere I need to get to.
Nigeria you will crumble ”
See her tweet below,
Her tweet has triggered a wave of comments on social media, with many Nigerians asserting that most Nigerian professors would never do that, as they often behave like demigods.

The National Industrial Court in Abuja, on March 31st, 2023, delivered a judgment by Justice Ayodele Obaseki Osaghae ordering the immediate reinstatement of Mrs. Victoria Ayantuga, an Assistant General Manager at the Nigerian Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF), who was wrongfully dismissed from the organization. Mrs. Ayantuga, along with some of her colleagues, had their employment unlawfully terminated in a highly publicized manner via newspapers on June 1st, 2021.
This wrongful suspension and dismissal led to a protracted legal battle, culminating in a judgment that favored Mrs. Ayantuga. The court declared the actions of the NSITF Management Board and the former Minister of Labor & Employment, Chris Ngige, as “unlawful, illegal, null and void, and of no effect whatsoever” in accordance with the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund Act and Staff Conditions of Service. The court’s order set aside the dismissal.
This judgment was rendered in a suit marked NICN/ABJ/223/2021, initiated on August 27th, 2021, by Mrs. Ayantuga to challenge her dismissal from the federal government agency. Justice Obaseki, in her ruling, emphasized that the facts presented by the claimant in the supporting affidavit were unchallenged by the defendants, thus accepted and acted upon by the court.
The court’s judgment, delivered on March 31st, 2023, was comprehensive and left no room for ambiguity. It directed Mrs. Ayantuga’s immediate reinstatement and the payment of all outstanding salaries, increments, and allowances dating back to her suspension in July 2020. The judgment, as outlined in the official document available on the National Industrial Court of Nigeria’s website, included several key declarations:
Employment Status: The court affirmed the validity of Mrs. Ayantuga’s employment with the NSITF and her entitlement to all remuneration and entitlements.
Immediate Reinstatement: The court ordered the immediate reinstatement of Mrs. Victoria Ayantuga to her position at the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund, with no loss of seniority, rank, or grade level. She was to be placed in the position of Deputy General Manager she would have held if her employment had not been illegally terminated.
Payment of Salaries and Allowances: NSITF was instructed to promptly pay Mrs. Ayantuga all her outstanding salaries, increments, and allowances from the date of her suspension in July 2020 until the execution of the court’s order.
Costs Awarded: In addition to the above, the court ordered the payment of costs of action amounting to N500,000.00 in favor of Mrs. Ayantuga.
Despite the court’s clear directives, subsequent efforts to fully comply with the judgment, including Mrs. Ayantuga’s complete reinstatement to her position, payment of outstanding salaries, preservation of her rank and seniority, and payment of the cost of action, have not been implemented. Legal representatives have corresponded with the relevant offices to ensure compliance with both the court order and the Minister’s directives.
The Minister of Labor & Employment, Rt. Honourable Simon Lalong, intervened to uphold the rule of law and ensure justice was served. He emphasized the administration’s commitment to adhering to the rule of law and not allowing any organization or government institution to disregard court orders.
Mrs. Ayantuga’s wrongful dismissal, despite her outstanding contributions and special promotion, was deemed unacceptable by the court, which cited international labor standards in support of its decision.

Nigerians have called on Nigerian Chef Damilola Adeparusi popularly referred to as Chef Dammy, to break the newly set cooking marathon record by Alan Fisher.

Nigerians have now called on Chef Dammy to break the record as well. This comes after her attempt to break Hilda Baci’s record, even before she was officially recognized as a record breaker.
Chef Dammy, a student at the Federal University Oye, cooked for 120 hours in Ekiti State, starting at exactly midnight on Friday, June 9, 2023, right after Chef Hilda’s attempt.
According to them, only Chef Dammy can break the record and by doing that a Nigerian would be the record breaker again.
