Nollywood actor and reality TV star, Uti Nwachukwu, has expressed surprise after stumbling upon an old photo of himself with Big Brother Naija star, Angel Smith.
Apparently, the 23-year-old writer was one of the children who took pictures with Uti after he won the ‘All Stars’ edition of Big Brother Africa in 2010.
Recall that Uti participated in Big Brother Africa season 3 in 2008 but was the third housemate to be evicted. He then returned for the all-stars season, where he lasted 91 days and eventually beat Munya Chidzonga in a final vote of 8 to 7.
Following his win, Angel, who was apparently present at the grand finale show, was one of the young fans who posed for pictures with him.
A few years later, Angel also participated in the re-invented Big Brother Naija show in 2021 and returned for the All Stars season in 2023 as well.
Uti came across the old photo with Angel and went on the microblogging platform X to express his shock that he had met Angel long before she came into the limelight.
The 41-year-old actor and TV host wrote: “Woow so Angel and I go waaaay back? Omoooo this life ehnnnnn. Awwww look at that!”
A Nigerian lady has shocked netizens with the changes her body experienced after giving birth to her son.
The woman, who was excited all through her nine-month journey, took to social media to share how her body started to depigment immediately after she gave birth.
She revealed that she became pregnant with her first child in 2021 and showed a video from that year in which she looked lovely and had a chocolate-colored complexion free of blemishes.
The moment right after she gave birth to the infant was depicted in a different scene. She explained in the caption that the delivery had gone smoothly and that she had no issues at all.
The skin surrounding her eyes and other areas of her body had lost its colour, leaving them all to seem white.
The woman’s story stirred reactions from netizens, who noted that they had never heard of such incidents before. See some reactions below.
Pepertua wrote; “Omo… pregnancy induced depigmentation, woah. Never heard of it 😳😳
My first thought was vitiligo, but this looks temporary cause it clearing off already, wish you a fast recovery”
Omolola wrote; “This one I have never heard of. I say, reproduction for women is so wild!”
Kossi commented; “There’s no better contraceptive than pregnancy itself. My sister is yet to recover from the hyperpigmentation she got during her pregnancy and then there’s depigmentation”
Award-winning Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu, popularly known as Burna Boy, has expressed his dislike for Twitter users while referring to them as mad.
The “I told them” crooner expressed his utter dislike for X (formerly known as Twitter) users in an interview with a woman, where she asked him what he would like to bring to “Henrie’s hotline”.
He acknowledged that he initially believed the craziness only applied to Nigerian Twitter users and that it may be different in other places, but he later discovered a pattern that was consistent throughout Kenya, South Africa, and even America.
According to him, the discovery of the American Twitter users was his biggest surprise, as they have their own set of groupings and fan clubs.
He said;
“I don’t like people on Twitter. I used to think it was just Nigerians on Twitter that were just MAD. Then, I now want to go to Kenya. I saw that it was the same thing. I went to South Africa, I saw that it was the same thing. I went to America; they have their own group. That if you go, you’ll see all of them tagged. It’s a worldwide pandemic and phenomenal.

A businesswoman has taken to social media to share how she fired a woman she had hired after just three days of work because she started requesting her husband’s phone number.
The woman disclosed that she had asked the woman to assist them with light labour and clean-ups at their warehouse.
She said that she and her husband ran the establishment on a regular basis and hired her to assist with minor housekeeping chores.
However, three days into her new job, the woman started asking for her husband’s phone number so she could call him if she couldn’t reach her.
The entrepreneur said that she had chosen to be diplomatic by informing the woman that she could always be reached since her phone was never turned off.
Nevertheless, she provided her with a fake number, so when the woman texted the number to introduce herself to her husband, she wasn’t too surprised.
The businesswoman said that she had to terminate the worker because she had asked to meet up with her husband for dinner.
Reality Tv star, Soma has revealed how Cross and other housemates persuaded him to break up with his love interest, Angel Smith.
In a recent interview with Glitch Africa Studios, the former All Stars roommate spoke candidly about this.
He claimed that because of Angel’s personality, some of his colleagues have approached him and advised him to put the breaks on what he is doing with her.
He claimed that by shutting them down, he typically puts them in their place. Soma emphasised that among those who had approached him with such advice was Cross.
On her own part, Angel said she doesn’t understand why most people would speak about her that way like they know her that well, when in reality they just know a little.
Rema, in an interview with Hip TV, also mentioned that he draws inspiration from Nigerian Afrobeats Grammy winners Wizkid and Burna Boy.
The 23-year-old award-winning musician claims that Kanye West’s creativity, Wizkid’s lifestyle, and Burna Boy’s life story have influenced him.
He said;
“I’m inspired by Burna [Boy] because of his story. Fela [Kuti] inspires me. Kanye West [inspires me] because of how far he goes in terms of his creativity, production. I really like Wiz [kid] because of how he carries himself.”
Primeboy, also known as Owodunni Ibrahim Oluwatosin, a childhood friend of the late singer Mohbad, has accused his wife, Wunmi, of attempting to falsely incriminate him in his death.
In an interview with TVC, conducted shortly before he surrendered himself to the Lagos State Police Command, Primeboy claimed that he was unaware that the police were searching for him.
When questioned about the police’s statement that they had invited him for questioning but he failed to show up, he said,
“That is a big lie. How will I receive a message from the police and I will refuse them? Even before all this wanted issue, I even wanted to go and explain myself at the station because people started accusing me wrongly. People that I called said I should chill and not go anywhere and that I should wait for them to invite me and so I kept waiting and suddenly, I just found myself wanted online yesterday, people started calling me. I was shocked. I was surprised. I called my lawyer, called my family and they said I should just calm down.”
Speaking further, he mentioned that on the Sunday before Mohbad’s passing, he was in the same car with the singer and his wife when they had a misunderstanding, and the singer asked him to leave the car.
He stated that he intervened in the singer’s dispute with his wife and prevented him from getting out of the car in anger.
Considering the event that played out, he said he doesn’t understand why the singer’s wife went online to frame him in his death shortly after his passing.
Reality TV star, Tolanibaj has issued a sincere apology to her colleague, Princess Onyejekwe for her prior behaviour while they were in the house.
Recall that Tolanibaj challenged Princess for dancing with her love interest, Neo Akpofure, at one of the Saturday night parties in the BBNaija house.
Tolanibaj expressed her regret for acting disrespectfully and immaturely towards Princess in a video that was uploaded to her YouTube account.
She acknowledged that a more mature and considerate dialogue with her would have been the better course of action.
In Tolanibaj’s words;
“I’m so sorry for anything that I did to you that was very disrespectful. I feel like I should have had a girl-to-girl chat with you. And I shouldn’t have been rude. I should have been more mature about it. So, I’m sorry.
This is me apologizing to you on my YouTube channel.”
Princess gratefully accepted the apologies, praising Tolanibaj as a diva and thanked her.
She also said that she wasn’t sure how Tolanibaj felt about the circumstance, which was one of the reasons she didn’t get in touch with him right away following their departure from the show.
She said,
“Thank you, baby. I’ve always known that you’re such a diva. Part of why I didn’t reach out to you when we came out, I was telling Doyin that I don’t know how you’re feeling. I really do like you.”

The lady’s cousin, identified as @desola__xn, took to the microblogging platform X to recount the incident on Wednesday, October 4.
According to @desola__xn, the married man had rented an apartment for her. However, shortly after moving in, she discovered that his two other mistresses were also residing in the same building.

Primeboy, a childhood friend of the late Nigerian singer Mohbad, has willingly turned himself in to the police hours after he was declared wanted in connection with the death of the singer.
Recall that Primeboy, whose real name is Owodunni Ibrahim, made headlines on Wednesday, October 4, after he was declared wanted, and a N1 million bounty was placed on him.
This action was prompted after he failed to respond to the police invitation sent to him to assist in their ongoing investigation into the circumstances that led to the singer’s death.
In a recent update, Primeboy has surrendered himself to the police. He was seen with his lawyer entering the police headquarters in Lagos on Thursday morning, October 5.

The Command equally assures that all persons found culpable in the death of Mr Ilerioluwa Aloba aka Mohbad will definitely be brought to justice.”

Angel, the wife of Big Brother Naija level-up star, Kesiena Tony Adjekpovu aka Kess, has tearfully recounted how, while she was in the hospital after having a miscarriage, Kess’ family only cared about people voting for him.
Recall that Angel had gone online to expose alleged sex chats between him and his co-star, Christy O, to support her allegations that they were having an affair.
This comes after Kess denied her initial allegations and accused her of lying against him to bring him down. He also described her as crazy, highly manipulative, and insecure.
Speaking about this claim, she said that it was because of her that Multi-Choice chose Kess in the first place, as they wanted a married man in the house.
She added that Kess had given her a summary of the show and swore never to do anything that would make his family seem bad.
According to Angel, less than a week on the show, he was already in bed with another woman, Ilebaye.
She also mentioned that when she miscarried and lost their baby, Kess’ brother made a public announcement about the event, but the emphasis was still on getting the prize money and winning the show, while she was still in the hospital with her miscarried child.
Angel highlighted that after the incident, she wrote to Big Brother, informing him about her child’s loss. She stressed that she didn’t want her husband out of the house but wanted them to convey the message to him.
Big Brother Naija season 7 winner, Josephine Otabor, better known as Phyna, has reacted to the accusations of adultery made by her colleague Kess’s wife, Angel.
A number of additional accusations were made when Angel accused her estranged husband of having an affair with Christy O, one of his colleagues.
In response to the unending saga, Phyna emphasized that the claims of cheating may be nothing but blatant lies.
She made this declaration in a live Instagram session; she confirmed that she is in communication with Kess’ wife, who also threatened to accuse her of having an affair with her husband.
In her words,
“Someone is accusing everybody, even said she’d accuse me. Of which currently we are talking and she is saying she’s going to pray down dead that I am having an affair with Kess. And you say I shouldn’t say anything?” she said in part.

The invitation card indicated that the wedding was held on Saturday, September 28th, at the Yoruba Tennis Club in the Obalende area of Lagos state.
After receiving the card, the Mavin Records boss went online to convey his confusion about this one-sided wedding, of which he had no prior knowledge.
Big Brother Naija ‘All Stars’ winner, Ilebaye Odiniya, has revealed that her multiple fights with other housemates while in the house was not a strategy for her to win the reality TV show.

Following Ilebaye’s victory, there was a lot of buzz online that suggested she had used her fights with the other housemates as a strategy to win the competition.
Ilebaye said that her housemates appeared to be picking on her because of an unknown issue during a recent conversation with Ebuka Obi-Uchendu.
The reality star acknowledged that, although unintentionally, she had hurt several of her colleagues.
She said,
“I did not even have any strategy going into the house. I just feel like I was just having fun. Some people in the house have certain beef with me that I did not really get,” she said.
So I might do something and they might be like I am purposely coming to annoy them even though to me, I am not. I am not saying I am perfect.
I am not saying I have not done anything wrong to them. Obviously, I have made mistakes, I have hurt somebody knowingly and unknowingly.”
Reality TV star, Tolanibaj has finally reacted to Christy O’s accusation amid the scandal involving fellow housemate Kess and his wife.
Recall that Christy O threw shade at Tolanibaj during the All Star season following her fight with Ilebaye.
Christy O accused her of slut-shaming her fellow women despite the fact that everyone knows she “hustles” at Farm City, a popular restaurant in Lekki, Lagos, where men pick up sex workers.
Finally reacting to the allegations amid the cheating scandal that Christy O is in, Tolani stated that this was only the beginning.

Nigerian music executive, Don Jazzy, has taken to social media to express his utmost surprise after receiving an invitation to his own wedding, which supposedly took place last weekend.
Apparently, the bride, identified as Gbemisola Jaramat, planned an imaginary wedding with the celebrity and went as far as delivering the invitation card and traditional attire (aso-ebi) to his estate.
The invitation card indicated that the wedding was held on Saturday, September 28th, at the Yoruba Tennis Club in the Obalende area of Lagos state.
After receiving the card, the Mavin Records boss went online to convey his confusion about this one-sided wedding, of which he had no prior knowledge.
Sharing a photo of the invitation and traditional attire, the 40-year-old music producer, who is currently single and not romantically linked to anyone, wrote,
“I’m confused. So apparently I missed my own wedding last week. See the invite and aso-oke they left at my estate gate. Since I didn’t agree to get married, maybe they married me in absentia 🙆🏾♂️🙆🏾♂️.”

Reality TV star, Cynthia Nwadiora, better known as Ceec, has shared why she would not date her fellow housemate, Neo, despite him being her ideal guy.
Recall that CeeC constantly spoke about her attraction to Neo while still in the house with him.
Speaking in an interview with Africa Magic hosted by Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, the 30-year-old lawyer explained that she could not work on the attraction because she is older than him.
She said,
“I don’t think I’ve ever paid attention to Neo before we went for the All-Stars season. When I got into the house, I saw Neo. I said, ‘Ah! There is something different about you.”
If you’re this fresh, I’d have noticed.’ But I didn’t notice until somebody said… Yeah, the guy was fresh.”
He was too fresh. I don’t think there is any guy who is as neat and as fresh as him in the House. Physically, he was my spec [ideal man].”
I won’t lie. Neo was my spec. However, remember, I said I didn’t want to be in a relationship in the house. And secondly, I’m older than Neo, even if it’s one year. And I don’t think I like to date younger men.”
