Popular Nigerian singer, Ahmed Ololade, better known as Asake, has stated that because he was too humble,Ā people used to take him for granted.
In a video that has goneĀ viral, AsakeĀ spoke about his past experiencesĀ while interacting with his colleagues.
Asake stated that it is preferable for someone to be egoistic and that humility is a waste of time since others do not value it.
He made it clear that being overly modest frequently results in disdain. The musician used his own experience to illustrate his point, saying that when someone is egoistic, others find them more valuable and perceive them as being inaccessible.
He said:
āTo me, humility is like a waste of time. People donāt appreciate it. At the end of the day, life is about your perception. That is how I think. Itās my world.
Iāve been around people, that I tried to let them say who I am but they didnāt appreciate it. As an artiste, if you come to somewhere, if youāre humble, they will take you for granted.
But if you have ego, they feel like youāre not accessible so they will like you more. People would rather see what youāre doing than you showing them humility. So, just do what you need to do.ā

US-based Nigerian singer and dancer, Korra Obidi, has criticized her ex-husband Justin Dean for neglecting to pay their first daughter’s school expenses.
The American dancerĀ vented her frustration on Facebook Live, disclosing that Dean still won’t pay his appropriate percentage of June’s tuition and doesn’t contribute to her food or medical expenses.
She said that Athena would soon be joining, and she wouldn’t find this east at all, which was why she was speaking out.
According to Korra, Justin Dean stopped paying in July, but she didn’t know this until she got a letter from the school threatening to expel June.
This alert caused her to pay off all of the outstanding debt, which extended until the end of the year.
She went on to argue that while Dean can afford to hire lawyers, which she considered a low priority, he cannot afford to give up $850 a year for his daughter’s education.

Nigerian media personality,Daddy Freeze has advised menĀ not to date or marry women who earn less than them and cannot place them on monthly allowances.
The socio-religious commentator urged them notĀ to keep pursuing ladies who appear to be hungryĀ and to ask meaningful questions.
Daddy Freeze underlined that a woman is not worthy of a man’s attention if she is unable to provide him with an allowance while speaking during an Instagram live session.
According to the controversial influencer, a man earning N10,000 should seek out a woman earning N30,000 and become engaged to her.
He went on to useĀ Dangote and Otedola’s children as examples that theyĀ never married someone from a lower socioeconomic background.
Daddy Freeze said;
āStop marrying girls that are hungry. Enough is enough! Before you marry a girl, ask her, āWhat are you going to do for me?ā Start asking. Start being bold. Ask her, āHow much are you paying me as allowance monthly?ā
Any woman that cannot give you a monthly allowance is not worth your time. Stop marrying beneath you. Adenugaās child will marry Dangoteās child. Have you ever seen any Adenugaās child marry a bricklayer? Do you know who Dangoteās daughter married? She married former Inspector General of Policeās son.
Then you a whole man youāre going to marry someone thatās earning half of your salary or struggling to earn what you are earning. If you earn N10,000 per month, look for a woman that earn N30,000 per month. And the woman must be beautiful and curvy as well as good in the bedroom. Isnāt that how they rate us?ā

Recall that after splitting from Ubi Franklin, Sandra marriedĀ theĀ CEOĀ ofĀ RoyalĀ HairsĀ Limited,Ā Steve Maduka;Ā however, their marriage was short-lived.

So, one morning, he woke me up and was like, āSandra, leave my house.ā He threatened me with a gun. He said he was gonna shoot me. He was shouting and insulting my parents. I was doing everything he wanted me to do. I left my business and I was cooking, doing everything with heavy pregnancy. I will serve him food on the tray because that is what he wants. He is a traditional man. So, I did all of that. He said, āNah,ā Iām pretending.
He said that I was pretending that if he just gave me another week, I would go back to the way I was. I told him that I wasnāt pretending that I was doing what it took to take care of my marriage and protect my marriage. But he insisted I leave.ā

Nigerian Youtuber and lawyer, Chisom Daveed has countered people who believe that men disrespect women in this generation because of their indecency.
Chisom requested that they mention a period when men had respected woman while listing some ways woman were treated in the past.
According to the lawyer, men have never respected woman, so it’s not about the generation or their appearances.
She cited several examples like when women were not allowed to vote, allowed to own properties or when they did not have right to their children.
She also added that it’s not about the ‘woke generation’ because even the sleeping generation were more disrespected by men than now.
She said;
“Tell me, can you show me a time in history where men have ever respected women, is it when they were not allowed to vote, when they were not allowed to own properties or when they did not have rights to their child, when women were not allowed to work outside of their home and even if they did they get paid a fraction compared to what men earn, tell me a time in history when men have ever respected women, people that before they do not even see you as a human being, I am not sure they do now, so tell me when men as a collective have ever respected women, so it’s not a this generation or woke generation even the asleep generation they were still be disrespected more by men than this generation.”
Chisom then rounded up by saying people should allow wisdom and knowledge pick them for once.
A South African woman, identified as Lebo Motsumi, has recounted how she got infected with HIV after having an affair with a married celebrity.
In a series of posts shared on Twitter (now X), Lebo, who is now a HIV and teens coach, narrated how she met the celebrity at the club at the age of 17.
She said they began having unprotected sex unknown to her that he was HIV positive and was sleeping with her with the intention of infecting her with the virus.
Lebo, who has been living with the virus for 14 years, shared her story to encourage other people to avoid unprotected sex and encouraged them to get tested periodically.
It’s worth noting that the said celebrity, singer Tebogo Ndlovu better known as Zombo, passed away in February 2008, presumably from the deadly virus.
Read Lebo’s full post below,
“How I got infected with HIV.
I was 17, my friend and I went to a club to watch a performance by Chomee. During the performance, I spotted Tebogo Ndlovu (Zombo), and he was winking at me. He had lost a lot of weight.
Well, people lose weight, so It wasn’t a big deal. He approached me and asked for my numbers, and I gave them to him. We hugged, and he left the club.
So, growing up, I have always wanted to be famous, and I saw this as my ticket to fame. All I could think about were headlines in different newspapers, magazines, etc. “LEBO MOTSUMI PREGNANT WITH ZOMBOS CHILD” yeah that how desperate I was.
We spoke on the phone for a couple of days and planned to meet, he came to my house cause I was living alone at the time. We had unprotected sex and I really didn’t mind cause I had a plan.
Little did I know, he also had his own plan, which was to infect me with HIV on purpose. This relationship was not one built on love. I wanted fame, and he wanted to infect me.
We had sex everywhere and anywhere, mostly in his white golf 1. I remember the wife would call me to leave him alone, did I listen? Nah, I was on a mission. To date, I feel she was warning me, but at the time, I didn’t really care. I wanted the fame.
Months later, he got ill and was admitted to Sunninghill Hospital and told me he had TB. I still made nothing out of it, and when he recovered, we continued having sex, I would even feed his drug addiction with my school fees money.
I eventually fell pregnant, and I was so excited. I called to inform him, and he denied the pregnancy. After some time at 6/7 months, I decided to have an abortion at a back street clinic. Went on with my life.
He then reached out and asked me to watch a music show on SABC1. I think it’s called “Liveamp” now. He appeared on the show sitting on a wheelchair. He then disclosed his HIV status and mentioned he went around spreading the virus cause he didn’t want to die alone.
Now you probably thinking the first thing I would do is test? Nope, I thought I was immune to getting infected with HIV, I just never associated myself with the virus.
How do I know he infected me? At 16, I was pregnant, and after giving birth to a premature baby (after trying to abort), I tested negative for HIV, and zombo was the next person I slept with after burial of my son.
HIV doesn’t have a face, and it can happen to anyone. Let’s start testing regularly with our partners. Get on prep, and use a condom consistently. An HIV infection is avoidable.”
