“I am talking to the whole world. She is really repentant and is really sorry over what she did and I advise if you are still supporting evil, stop! What she did was wrong and she is really repentant. The way she hugged me shows she is really sorry and because she is really sorry, I ask the whole world to join me and forgive her. I told her joining evil is a very bad thing. God will not forgive you but she is repentant.

She said she will not support Judy again”

“Ilebaye has been playing a victim game, we’ve been f0oled” – Doyin

Big Brother Naija “All Stars” housemate, Doyin has stated that her former friend Ilebaye has been playing the victim game all along.

Doyin made this comment following the clash between Ilebaye and Whitemoney over the sound system and piano provided for the house for their wager.

Ilebaye argued with Whitemoney after turning on the music system and turning it up after Whitemoney turned it off.

According to Whitemoney, Ilebaye only wanted to disturb by increasing the volume of the system at an ungodly hour, hence asking her to lower the sound.

Ilebaye, on the other hand, said that no one cared about her “noise making” and that she intensified the sound in order to create a song.

Following the altercation and Ilebaye’s tears, Doyin was spotted talking with Cross in the HOH bathroom, where she revealed that Ilebaye had played the house and had been playing the victim game to win over Nigerians’ favor and win the money.

She said;

“Ilebaye has been playing a game. Watch her videos from Level Up season, she’s not the same person. When i realized her game, I felt so stupid. But it’s too late, the viewers would have given the money to her. Whitemoney was the first person to tell it to me but i called it bluff. We’ve all been fooled”

Big Brother Naija ‘All Stars’ housemate, Ilebaye, caused a commotion in the house when she got into an argument with fellow housemate, Whitemoney, about his refusal to let her use the musical instruments.

Ilebaye, who was playing the piano and allegedly trying to create a song for their wager, picked an offense when Whitemoney asked her to reduce the sound because it was late after a night of partying and some housemates were already in bed.

This didn’t sit well with Ilebaye who asserted that she was not allowed to use the musical instruments for their group wager task simply because Whitemoney is older than her.

“That journey is long, bro. I feel like sometime in my life, I would probably make movie out of all these stories because it’s inspirational to me and I think it can be inspirational to a lot of other people.

Grinding from Coded Tunez down to running YBNL; making music with Olamide, Fireboy, Adekunle Gold, Lil Kesh, and other artists outside the label… First of all, I wouldn’t change anything for anything because the journey has been beautiful both the ups and the downs.

But I still see myself as that same kid from my church. That same 10-year-old playing the keys and my dad is doing the sermons. I still see myself as that kid in the choir because it’s still the same passion that drives me and has been driving me all these years.”

“It takes some level of stupidity to remain married” – Nigerian doctor who has been married for 38 years says

Nigerian doctor

A Nigerian doctor, identified simply as Dr Akpoki, has taken to social media to share the crucial ingredient for maintaining a successful marriage.

Addressing both married folks and those planning to get married, the doctor said it would take some level of stupidity for their marriages to work because it entails a lot of forbearance and tolerance.

Dr. Akpoki, who has been married for 38 years, added that it will be difficult for highly logical and intelligent people to sustain a long-lasting marriage.

Nigerian doctor

He cited this as a contributing factor to the end of the marriage of American business man, Bill Gates and his ex-wife, Melinda.

His words,

“If you cannot tolerate the following things, don’t get married. Number one, if you cannot control your temper, do not get married. If you cannot tolerate stupidity, do not get married. If you cannot say sorry even when you are right, do not get married.

I have been married for 38 years. Falling love is ‘common sense leaving your brain’. It takes stupidity and tolerance to remain married. Those who are too smart like Bill Gates and Melinda don’t remain married. Most Nobel prize winners and very intelligent people do not maintain one relationship. It takes some level of stupidity to remain married. I have been stupid for 38 years.”

Taking to his Twitter account on Monday, Rema educated the younger generation—who are so quick to cut people off—that there is a benefit to perseverance and that being present in their lives may have a beneficial effect.

He wrote;

“Some of your biggest blessings might be in the hands of the worst people you might ever come across.

In our generation of quitting on people early, just remember that there’s a reward for the steadfast, and your presence in their lives might be the true lecture they need. God didn’t place you in their hands by mistake.”

“I need a break from men” — Tolanibaj says as she makes comeback to social media following Neo saga

Tolanibaj says

Evicted Big Brother Naija ‘All Stars’ housemate, Tolanibaj has made a comeback to social media following her cringe-worthy display on the reality TV show.

It will be recalled that the 29-year-old disc jockey repeatedly fought with her fellow female housemates over her romantic interest, Neo.

Though their relationship was not defined, Tolani made it a mission to mark her territory and prevent other women from getting too close to Neo.

This earned her heavy criticism on social media, with many berating her for fighting over a man that hasn’t publicly claimed her as his lover.

Well, following her eviction from the show, Tolani finally returned to social media with a series of tweets, where she announced her return on Wednesday, August 31.

In a follow-up tweet, she asked who would like to be her “comfort person” since she has been booted out of the show and doesn’t have access to Neo anymore.

However, netizens bombarded her with her old tweet from 2016 where she condemned women who carry women on their heads.

In response to one of the comments, Tolani stated that she needs a break from men because her heart is too sweet for games.

“Hehe! I tweeted this? Awwwn cute.
I need a break from men.
My heart is too sweet for games,”
she wrote.

Without a doubt, Tolani has proven that she is unbothered by the negative comments and can’t be shamed for her actions on the show.

Peter Okoye to sue two banks for allowing fraudsters impersonate him

Popular Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye of PSquare music group, has threatened banks in Nigeria with legal action for allowing impersonation.

The singer took to social media to voice concern about others exploiting his identity to con innocent victims.

Peter Okoye claimed that Access and Polaris banks failed to do due diligence when the impostor opened accounts under the name “Peter Okoye PSquare” with them.

Online scammers have taken advantage of his lottery scheme, which he has been conducting, to prey on fans who think they are doing business with the musician.

Peter threatened to file a lawsuit against the two aforementioned banks after becoming tired of the continual criticism from those who allege he conned them by requesting money.

He said that he would sue for damages and intended to call out other institutions, asking why banks would allow anyone to create an account in his name without verification.

Peter added that he suspected that the banks were working with some of the fraudsters due to the way they manage impersonation.

Mr P tweeted,

“Enough is enough. It’s either an inside job or otherwise. I have a name to protect here and save some of these innocent victims. So get ready for me and my legal team.

How can @polarisbankltd and @myaccessbank allow someone to open an account in the name of “PETER OKOYE PSQUARE” without valid means of identification, no BVN, no biometrics, no verified address or even utility bill to correspond with the address of the account owner.

Now they are using my name to scam innocent people. I’m suing this bank for damages @officialefcc take note.”

She claimed to have found her spouse via a dating app in March 2023, and that during the second week of their long-distance relationship, he had requested their “marriage list.”

On August 4, she said, he traveled to Nigeria after five months of dating. They were legally married on August 5 and were married in a regular church ceremony on August 12.

She said before she got married, her father, who is a pastor, felt ashamed as he couldn’t pray for single ladies to get married while his daughter was getting older without being married.

Sharing their love story, Amaka wrote;

“For those asking about how we met…
Our Love story.

March 5, 2023, I met my Romanian but UK based Husband on a dating app.

I had almost given up and was about deleting the app when he liked my profile, we matched and I said ” hello” and that was how it all started.

2 weeks later, he met with my parents virtually…asked for traditional marriage rites lists.

My Dad hesitated at first cos he was still in doubt if he was real or not cos I’ve had lots terrible experiences with men who came to meet my parents for my hand in marriage but later turned out to be either married or Playboys….so my dad was very sceptical about this… but being a pastor he asked for sometime to pray about it which he did….& his mind was at peace.

He sent the list…and My husband ( then my online boyfriend) sent the Money for everything in the list including my bride price, this was done after his parents met with my parents for a virtual introduction.

Fast forward to August 4th 2023, he came down to Nigeria from UK for the very first time… I was very shy to hug him properly cos my parents went with me to the airport to pick him up.

Then August 5th, we had our Court Wedding….and August 12, we did both the Traditional & Church wedding….His parents couldn’t attend physically cos of his Dad’s health but they followed it all through Virtually as it was transmitted Live for them to watch.

It was a very emotional day… God was involved from the beginning to the end, the atmosphere was charged with God’s presence as my Dad led me inside the church down the aisle.

It was the happiest day of my life getting married to the man whom God used to take away all the name calling, mockery & tears I was experiencing as a 37 years old unmarried single lady!
God never comes late, He only has His time table & He follows it duely!

To Him alone be the Glory”

“Burna Boy has not by himself done anything that can be remotely described as great” – Actress Ireti Doyle’s ex-husband, Patrick Doyle

Veteran actress Ireti Doyle’s ex-husband, Patrick Doyle, has shared his opinion on Grammy-award winning singer, Burna Boy following his controversial assertion that Afrobeats music lacks substance.

Taking to his Facebook page, Patrick Doyle stated that Burna Boy has not, by himself, done anything that can be remotely described as great.

Doyle argued that the feats that appear to be puffing the likes of Burna Boy up, have to be properly attributed to great singers like Fela, Sunny Ade, Majek Fasek, and others who created pathways for the likes of Burna Boy and others to walk through effortlessly.

He wrote;

“The credit for the feats that appear to be puffing the likes of Burna Boy up have to be properly ascribed to the greats who cleared the thorny paths that have created pathways for his likes to walk through practically effortlessly.

Burna Boy has not by himself done anything that can be remotely described as great. He and his peers are recipients of the labours of heroes past. They need to be humble and respectful of their diligent and truly pioneering predecessors. Great artistes like SunnyAde, Fela Anikulapo, Majek Fashek , I, k. Dairo and a galaxy of others who paved the way from the 60s, to the 2000s. Greatness and great feats don’t exist in a vacuum. Let us not contribute to the creation of an arrogant and obnoxious monster.”

“Nigerian artistes have a great platform today because of Fela” – 9ice

Legendary Nigerian singer, Alexander Abolore Adegbola Akande, popularly known as 9ice, has noted that the late Fela Anikulapo-Kuti offered Nigerian musicians the chance to succeed.

In a recent interview with Sis Project Studios, the “Gongo Aso” hitmaker said that Fela, the father of Afrobeats, presented a genre that made things simpler for many artists who were trying new things and seeking a method to show the world their abilities.

He added that Afrobeats taught him a lot and he is glad to be alive to emulate what the great people have done.

9ice said,

“Fela Anikulapo-Kuti gave us the platform which is Afrobeat for us to climb on top. We were trying to do Afropop. We were trying to do afrobeats. We were trying to do different names. But Baba [Fela] already has something that the world recognized.

“Afrobeat taught me a lot. King Sunny Ade, Ebenezer Obey, and Fela Anikulapo-Kuti are our grandfathers. And I’m glad to be in existence to emulate or to follow what they’ve done.”

In other news, Grammy award-winning Nigerian singer and songwriter, Temilade Openiyi, professionally known as Tems, has spoken up about the difficulties associated with fame and success as she reveals why she switched from Afrobeats to RnB.

In an interview that was included in the most recent issue of Interview Magazine, she discussed many topics with American rapper Kendrick Lamar.

Tems stated that success frequently entails demands and difficulties, but she attempts to get over them by being herself.

#BBNaija All Stars: “Tox!city won’t win this season” – Mercy Eke reacts to CeeC’s face-off with Pere

Big Brother Naija All Stars housemate, Mercy Eke, has shared her thoughts on the clash between CeeC and another housemate, Pere.

The disagreement arose due to her absence at a general meeting for their wager task.

Ike had gone to inform Ceec that the housemates were not happy with her decision to snub the meeting, and shared some of the things the housemates said about her.

This enraged Ceec, and she questioned why they singled her out when Angel, Alex, and Mercy were also absent from the meeting.

She specifically attacked Pere, whom Ike had claimed complained about her refusal to show up at the meeting. This degenerated into a serious clash, with Ceec hurling insults at Pere and calling him names.

Ceec drags

At some point, Pere stated that he is not Tobi Bakre, CeeC’s romantic interest in the ‘Double Wahala’ edition of the show, whom she fought fiercely with during their season in 2018.

This evidently got her angrier and she lashed out at Pere, claiming he has been in her DMs since 2018, begging for her attention.

A few minutes after their clash, Mercy Eke expressed her opinion and claimed that CeeC was just trying to create issues and unnecessary toxicity.

She said,

“They say they don’t want to do chores so it can cause issues. They pick on it and shout, then create toxicity. Toxicity will not win this season, it’s scratching them to be angry, to be mad and fight the whole universe. It’s not going to work this All Stars.”
