I started making music because I didn’t have friends. I had something to say and I didn’t have anyone to say it to. So, I would just sing it. I will write it in a song and record it on my phone. I was doing that for years.

So, music is my outlet. Whether anybody listens to it or not, I’ve to release it. Whether it does well or not, it’s none of my business. But I need to release it. And it’s for the people that can connect with it and are going through the same thing.”

Controversial singer Azeez Fashola, popularly known as Naira Marley, has been summoned by the House of Representatives to address the issue of the late singer Mohbad’s musical rights.

The House Committee on Justice, Youth, and Legislative Compliance has also invited Mohbad’s manager, Jiggy Adeoye, to appear before them on October 31.

The decision to summon Naira Marley and Mohbad’s manager came after a motion was moved by Babajimi Benson, the representative for Ikorodu Federal Constituency in Lagos State.

Benson stressed the importance of reviewing existing laws governing the entertainment industry and copyright regulations. He expressed concerns about the contracts and agreements that artists are often compelled to sign.

In a letter dated October 26, signed by the committee’s clerk, Yusuf Ibrahim, the House stated that both Naira Marley and Mohbad’s manager were required to provide guidance for further legislative action.

Mohbad, whose real name was Ilerioluwa Olademeji Aloba, tragically passed away under controversial circumstances on Tuesday, September 12, 2023.

The former Marlian Music signee had departed from the record label in 2022 following internal disputes and allegations of assaults.

The summoning of Naira Marley and Mohbad’s manager has sparked intrigue within the music industry and among fans.

As the House of Representatives seeks to address the issue of Mohbad’s royalties, the outcome of the upcoming hearing could have significant implications for the legal and financial aspects of the entertainment world.

Ok, that you’ve never had Sex before. That was something that came out of the house and people were shocked.

The Gombe State Police Command has apprehended a 55-year-old man, Bappah Bolari, for allegedly defiling an 11-year-old girl in the Kwami Local Government Area of the state.

According to ASP Mahid Abubakar, the spokesperson for the police command, Bolari forcefully engaged in sexual intercourse with the minor without her consent.

The incident took place behind a maternity building in Malam Sidi.

The case is currently under investigation, and upon its completion, Bolari will be charged to court.

In a similar occurrence, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) also presented Donal Joseph, an 18-year-old resident of Wili Village in Kaltungo Local Government Area.

Joseph stands accused of defiling the daughter of Danjuma Jauro. Allegedly, he lured the victim to an uncompleted building after escorting her to his house.

There, he undressed the young girl and had sexual intercourse with her.

Both the victim and the suspect were taken to the hospital for medical examinations.

“The law doesn’t work with your emotions or biases” – Lawyer speaks on the legal defense of murdǝred UNIPORT student

October 28, 2023

A Twitter user, who is also a legal practitioner with the handle @Egi_nupe_, has shed more light into the legal aspects of the case involving the murder of a female UNIPORT student.

Recall that Damain Okoligwe, a 400-level student of UNIPORT, was arrested for allegedly killing his 20-year-old girlfriend, who is also a student of UNIPORT.

The legal practitioner has now explained that even if he pleads guilty, the court must still record a plea of not guilty, as this is standard practice.

The legal practitioner shared his knowledge after he came across a tweet of a lady who swore to curse any lawyer that would defend the alleged murderer.

In a well detailed tweet, the legal practitioner wrote

“Even if no lawyer represents him, the Judge must insist and ensure that the State provides him with a lawyer. The law doesn’t work with your emotions or biases. I thought this should have been clear to everyone by now? He’s by law still presumed innocent until the proven guilty. Even if he pleads guilty, the Court must record “not guilty” for him. This is the standard practice in a criminal trial where the offence committed is capital offence.”

Though some found the information educative, others were confused and left hoping that justice is served and the killer is brought to book.

The musician, Aisylu Chizhevskaya Mingalim, tied the knot with her 22-year-old adopted son, Daniel Chizhevsky, at a restaurant in Kazan, Tatarstan Republic, Russia, on October 20th.

It was gathered that she adopted Daniel after meeting him at an orphanage home, where she was providing singing lessons when he was only 13, and started raising him at 14.

Their marriage didn’t sit well with the child welfare officials in her country, and they seized her five other adopted children, four girls, and one boy.

Meanwhile, Mingalim is fighting the move and lamented that some of her adopted children have been placed back into care homes, while others have returned to family members.

Speaking to local media, Mingalim, who has one biological son from her previous marriage, said her romance with Daniel started after she adopted him from the orphanage home.

Mingalim said: ‘Our relationship is perfect. We can’t live without each other. We are on the same wavelength.’

She is reportedly planning to flee Tartarstan to Moscow with her new husband where they can live freely, and regain custody of her adopted children from the authorities.

“I stopped being religious after making money” – Omah Lay

October 27, 2023

Nigerian singer Stanley Omah Didia, better known as Omah Lay, has revealed that he stopped being blatantly religious after becoming wealthy.

The Afropop artist claimed that although he attended church frequently and was raised in a Christian environment, his upbringing had completely altered by the time he became famous.

Omah Lay declared that he no longer cares about religion and has chosen to concentrate on mankind in a recent interview with media personality Wunmi Bello.

He also disclosed that, despite coming from a Christian household, he had considered becoming an Islamist at one time.

The “Soso” crooner stated that although the lessons in the Holy Books seem genuine, he still doubts their accuracy

and believes in God.

Omah Lay said,

“As soon as I made money, I just switched; I just believed in God and became more human than religious. I don’t just enjoy religion anymore.

I grew up in a Christian home. I spent a lot of time in church. And at some point, I was going to convert to Islam. But now I’m at the point where it’s just me and God. Not religion. Because I really don’t know anything about religion. That’s the problem. These holy books and what everybody is saying, I know it sounds true but these are just books that I can not find evidence that this was written by God or his servants.

So, I just feel like I don’t know anything in as much as I know the bible, Jesus and Allah. But at the end, I don’t have evidence. The only evidence I have is that there’s a God who is moving me. I know that there must be something that’s somewhere that’s in charge of this whole thing. I believe it’s God.”

Controversial media personality, Blessing CEO, also known as Blessing Okoro, has leaked an alleged audio message from auto dealer IVD admitting that Davido owes him hours after denying claims that the singer owed him.

Recall that the relationship therapist had gone on the internet a few days prior to accuse Davido of owing 4.5 million naira for the Venza automobile he gave to his assistant, Israel DMW.

To the shock and disappointment of Blessing CEO, the car dealer, however, went on the internet and claimed that Davido owed him nothing.

This enraged Blessing, who promised to wage war against IVD for embarrassing her while trying to fight for him.

Blessing CEO took to social media to share a chat with IVD, where he sent her an audio message, admitting that the singer indeed owes him the money.

IVD noted in the conversation that the debt is a known fact and that he has attempted to contact the musician several times. Usually, he receives a response after two months, at which point the singer requests that he send his account information but never pays.

According to IVD in the recording, Davido had only paid 4 million naira for the automobile, which was less than the agreed-upon amount.

In other news, a Nigerian female Tik Tok user has sparked a conversation about the traditional practice of omugwo, challenging the expectations placed on African women during their postpartum period.

The video, which has since gone viral, resonates with many as it shows the need for a better approach to supporting new mothers.

The TikTok user passionately expressed her opinion, emphasizing that mothers-in-law should not view omugwo as a vacation for themselves, but rather as an opportunity to provide assistance and support.

She boldly challenged the notion that the son’s wife should not be responsible for household chores and cooking while recovering from childbirth, asserting that it is the mother-in-law’s role to lend a helping hand.

Not stopping there, she directed her message to men, urging them to stand up for their wives and ensure they are not overwhelmed with unnecessary stress during this delicate period.

She suggested that if a man’s mother plans to visit as a vacation, it would be more appropriate to invite the wife’s mother instead, so that she can offer the much-needed support. Watch here

Popular Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing-Sunday, has lambasted a troll who ridiculed her over her previous failed relationships.

The troll made an insensitive comment about the actress amid online speculations that she has broken up with her much-publicized partner, Xxssive.

It’s no news that the couple consistently tensioned their fans and followers with loved-up pictures, videos, and romantic messages expressing their love for each other.

However, they left many people puzzled when they recently unfollowed each other on Instagram, sparking speculations of a breakup. Nevertheless, the duo has not yet confirmed the breakup rumors.

In light of this, the troll took to the comment section of one of her posts to mock her, suggesting that it’s because of the posts she shares that her relationships don’t last.

“Everything post weyre that why ur relationship dey break like yam every 6 month,” @ayomide_mother_of_2 commented.

The comment clearly didn’t go down well with Nkechi Blessing and she retaliated by laying a curse on the woman’s two children.

She wrote, “@ayomide_mother_of_2 those two children go experience worse in Jesus name”

A follower felt the actress went too far with the curse and said she should have focused on the mother, instead of her kids. In response, Nkechi also cursed the follower.

“Nkechi you should have just talk back at her, and let her kids out of it. Remember you’re a mum and u wouldn’t want
anyone to involve ur boy in anything,” the follower wrote.

Reacting, Nkechi Blessing wrote, “@sarampa_ make God p#nish you and her as if no be person born me too”

Popular celebrity auto dealer, Ikechukwu Ogbona, a.k.a IVD Motors, has denied claims made by Blessing CEO that Nigerian superstar, Davido is currently owing around 4.5 million for a car he bought for one of his aides.

This occurs only hours after Instagram celebrity Blessing CEO made a claim in a message on her page that Davido owes IVD Motors millions of Naira for the purchase of Israel’s car.

IVD took to his Instagram page to dismiss the claims made by Blessing CEO and state that it was fake news.

Revealing that he hasn’t been owed a dime, he wrote:

“David does not owe me a dime. Please, stop speculating fake news. All love to my bro @davido. May God keep blessing you.”

Reacting to this, Blessing took to her Instagram page to tender an apology to Davido and declare war on IVD.

According to her, the businessman had cried day and night about the incident and decided to embarrass her when she stood up for him.

She wrote;

“IVD you say OBO no dey owe you money, ok since u one disgrace ur papa I go show that u don’t bite the

“I don’t blame Collins for k!lling his girlfriend. I also don’t pity the girl at all” – Activist VeryDarkMan speaks on UNIPORT tragedy; gives reason (video)

Controversial Nigerian activist VeryDarkMan has taken to social media to share his thoughts on the University of Port Harcourt student, Justina Otuene, who was brutally murdered by her boyfriend.

YabaleftOnline earlier reported that the boyfriend, Collins, was caught while attempting to dispose of the victim’s body after he had mutilated her and removed her eyes and breasts. It was alleged that he killed her for ritual purposes. Read more about it here

Addressing the incident in a video shared on his Instagram page, VeryDarkMan stated that he doesn’t blame Collins for the murder because society pressures men to become wealthy, without considering how they achieve financial success.

He also recounted how he was constantly shamed for being broke and living in a shabby apartment, even though he was only living within his means. He expressed that society no longer values honest work but instead prioritizes get-rich-quick schemes.

He emphatically stated that he doesn’t have an iota of sympathy for the deceased student because most ladies date for money, and don’t want to work anymore.

VeryDarkMan captioned the video,

“You guys saw what the internet did to me last and they still do it to me, with all that who go want hustle? I don’t blame this guy oooo, the society permits it now, nobody cares how you make money just make it, your sister or brother might be next, keep fueling it”
