Veteran Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu has revealed his reason for turning down a N10 million offer.
In a recent interview with Chude, Agu shared how he turned down a N10 million offer from billionaire businessman, Mike Adenuga, to play a role in a movie.
He claimed that when the wealthy businessman made the offer, he was broke and had never earned more than N1 million, but he insisted on receiving N20 million for the role.
The renowned actor claimed that when he threatened to leave, Adenuga subsequently made a concession and paid him the N20 million.
He said;
“Chief Mike Adenuga said, ‘what I have for you in this contract is N10 million.’ I have not seen N1 million before when he was pricing me N10 million but I refused. I said, ‘if it’s not N20 million, forget it.’
He insisted, I insisted. So, I pretend to rise up and said, ‘give me money to go back to Enugu. If there’s any available flight, book it for me let me just quietly go back.’
They regarded me to now being serious when I rose up. Chief Mike Adenuga said ‘sit down.’ He ordered them to bring documents for signing. They brought and I signed.
From that moment uhuru dance started. I did it diplomatically in the office. I didn’t want them to know that N20m was a big deal [to me]. But it was the most wonderful thing [to me] at the moment.”

There are several ways to pass the same message without needing to touch the sensitive areas. Which message are u passing when you have increased viewers’ desire for the immoral? The message is for who? Or you are just out to enjoy yourselves before the camera?
Is this funny? How can u even call this comedy?
If you want to be known, please be known for something worth everyone’s applaud.

Frodd’s presence on the show shocked netizens because he recently got married, and his pregnant wife is expected to deliver their first child this week.

Joseph wrote; “The fact that Frodd is married and not just married, he left a pregnant wife who is about to go into Labour at home for the bbn and he still ain’t doing his best to respect her is a terrible thing to behold.

A Nigerian Architect has recounted his encounter with five Caucasian boys who were surprised that he could read in London, United Kingdom.
The man, identified as @harrydaniyan on Twitter, shared this story while responding to a tweet asking black people to share their racist experience abroad.
According to him, he was reading a magazine at a busstop in London when the white boys made a racist comment and laughed about his ability to read.
In response to their jab, he took time to school the boys about how he is a certified Architect in Nigeria and berated them for being mere Highschoolers.
He further told them that people with their level of education are considered illiterates in Nigeria.
Read his full tweet below,
“As I sat at a bus stop in London waiting for the bus, I brought out a magazine to read.
The white boy sitting next to me shouted: “Hey, look! He CAN read!” He & his 4 friends sitting next to him laughed hard!
I smiled & said, “yeah, I CAN read. I’m an Architect from Nigeria… I have a Master’s Degree in Architecture. Do YOU know what Architecture is?”
“Yes, mate! You design houses, right?”
“Good! So, what do YOU do? What’s the level of YOUR education?”
“High school!”
I asked the next boy.
“High school!”
And the next.
“High School!”
All 5 of them…
I said, “so, y’all just have high school education! Interesting.
Do you know what we call folks like you in my Country?”
“No, what?”
“ILLITERATES!”
I smiled sweetly & returned to my magazine.
Needless to say, they didn’t say a word again until their bus came…”

A young nurse, identified as Omoniyi Boluwatife, has been found dead with her womb ripped out in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The tragedy happened just two days after she was formally inducted into the Nursing and Midwifery Council of Nigeria.
Boluwatife, a Lead City University alumna, reportedly went to a nightclub to celebrate her recent induction but when she was sadly found dead the next morning, her initially happy event swiftly turned into something horrific.
Boluwatife said goodbye to her mother, who had come from Port Harcourt, Rivers State to take part in her celebration before the unfortunate night out. They had no idea that it would be their last farewell.
The club has released a statement acknowledging the unfortunate incident, but they assert that they cannot be held responsible as the tragedy did not occur on their premises, nor was the individual taken away from the club.
The Ibadan club also urged security organizations to look into the incident and prosecute the offenders.
The circumstances surrounding Boluwatife’s death and the horrifying removal of her womb are presently under investigation by authorities.
“The fact that I actually saw that body yesterday en? The cold shivers I felt for hours and how little I just see life because her body was left exposed for so many hours and no cared to cover her body with cloths. Viewers discretion is advised.
“I was at the hospital that she was brought in. I wish I know too, no one knows what was removed at least at the time her corpse was brought in. Two days ago, she got inducted and got killed that same day. It’s a vile world”.

“I’m the woman that will speak ohh. I will talk!
We let abusive men get away with it and someone else’s child will suffer it!
Because if the first wife had summoned the courage to warn my sister and make her presence known she would NEVER have married him.
Since the men are not doing it. It’s our duty to warn our fellow women. Let them make an informed choice.
A lot of times (like my sisters case) they fill your head with lies and and by the time you find out the truth you feel stuck!
Please as I said if you know her, let her be aware. Once can be a mistake. But twice??”

Self-proclaimed life coach, Solomon Buchi, has opined that it is insensitive to ask couples, especially strangers, when they are having children.
Taking to social media, the controversial media personality, who recently tied the knot with his partner Adeola, noted that asking strangers about their fertility was rude.
According to him, a lot of people could be dealing with infertility issues, and probing them could trigger and remind them of their struggles.
He wrote on Thursday, August 10,
“When will you have children?” is a question you shouldn’t ask strangers. It is insensitive. You might mean well, but people go through a lot: infertility, miscarriages, and difficulty conceiving.
So each time that question pops up, it reminds them of their struggle. If you see couples without children and you care so much about them having children, pray for them, don’t ask them, especially when you don’t know them. It can be rude and intrusive.”
Taking to Facebook, Solomon opined that sexual compatibility is a lie from the pit of hell to make people fornicate unendingly in their pursuit for someone who will outperform their last sexual encounter.
According to him, instead of looking for ‘sexual compatibility’, people should seek ‘sexual commitment’ because it ensures growth and fulfilment in marriage.

A female evangelist has advised women to make thoughtful decisions when a man who isn’t financially secure woos them.
She claimed that if a woman rejects a guy today due to his social standing and inability to meet her wants, she will submit to him in ten years.
She remarked during a radio interview that women’s comparison of themselves to other young women wearing costly brands is the major reason they won’t date a struggling man.
She advised any woman who wants expensive clothing or accessories to pay for them herself rather than waiting for a male to offer them money or make the purchase.
The clergywoman emphasized the importance for women to support an ambitious guy even in the face of his financial inability, as opposed to living with him because he cannot support them.

In other words, Funmi Aragbaye has opined that young couples are more likely to be divorced because they are unable to withstand challenges in marriage.
The singer said this in an interview with The Punch, pointing out that happiness in marriage doesn’t have everything to do with how wealthy one’s spouse is.
“The major cause of divorce among young couples is the fact that they cannot endure hardship with anybody. And, they prefer getting married to rich people. However, happiness in marriage is not dependent on how rich one’s spouse is. Young people should always seek divine direction from God before they get married.
They should find out about the families of their would-be spouses, and not just focus on how rich they are. There are some families with peculiar ancestry curses that one should avoid. Young people should also learn to endure, be patient and rugged, and be understanding.”

Enhancing this exceptional performance is a visually stunning Ultra-Slim Retro Design with an industry-first Diamond Matrix Design on the back cover, making the phone an absolute standout in style and functionality.
Lightning-fast and reliable charging with a longer-lasting battery
With the composition of the super-fast 67W SUPERVOOCTM Flash Charge and a large 5000mAh battery, the OPPO A78 offers one of the fastest flash charging speeds on any smartphone in its price range. The A78 can be fully charged in just 44 minutes. With this incredible charging speed, it’s even possible to charge the phone to last an entire flight with a quick, last-minute charge before boarding a plane. When fully charged, the long-lasting 5,000mAh battery can provide 27.4 days of standby (flight mode) or 16.37 hours of YouTube video, so it can easily last an entire day of average use.
OPPO has also introduced a series of exclusive technologies designed to enhance charging safety and reliability on the A78. OPPO’s Battery Health Engine helps to extend the A78’s battery lifespan to as many as 1,600 charge and discharge cycles, which is enough to keep the battery working in a good condition for up to four years. Optimized All-Day Charging intelligently learns users’ daily charging habits and adjusts the charging speed accordingly. For office workers who often leave their phones connected to a charger throughout the day, Optimized All-Day Charging can automatically stop charging the battery when it reaches 80% capacity and then resume charging to 100% just in time for the end of work. This reduces constant charging of the battery to improve safety and overall battery longevity. On top of this, 5-Layer Charging Protection returns to the A78 to improve end-to-end safety across the entire charging process.
A more immersive audio-visual experience
The OPPO A78 is the first OPPO A series phone to feature an FHD+ AMOLED screen that can be rarely seen in its price range. The 6.4” screen has a 90Hz refresh rate and up to 180Hz touch sampling rate to provide enhanced smoothness and responsiveness. With up to 600 nits’ overall brightness, the screen delivers incredible detail even in direct sunlight, while the smart adaptive backlight helps provide the most comfortable visual experience in different environments to reduce visual fatigue from prolonged viewing. The display also includes the first In-Display Fingerprint Unlock on a smartphone at this price range, offering a better balance between aesthetic design and efficiency.
Alongside the fantastic visual experience, the A78 provides more immersive and crystal-clear surround sound through its Dual Stereo Speakers and Real HD Sound 3.0, delivering optimal sound adjusted for different scenarios such as music, video, and gaming. For users who like to turn things up a notch, Ultra Volume Mode can boost sound volume by as much as 200%, making it easier to hear music or the phone ringing in even the noisiest of places. When making voice calls, the earpiece volume can be further increased by 3dB without impacting audio quality, so users can clearly hear their conversations at all times.
In terms of camera, the A78 is equipped with a camera system including a 50MP main camera and a series of new features that make it easier than ever to capture stunning photos and videos. For example, Dual-View Video can be used to shoot from both the front and rear cameras simultaneously and combine the footage into a single frame, unlocking new perspectives in shooting creative vlogs.
Stay smooth for up to four years
The A78 is powered by the Snapdragon® 680 Mobile Platform, delivering powerful performance with optimized power consumption built for everyday tasks. The phone features an 8GB RAM + 128/256GB ROM configuration with up to 1TB of additional storage through the SD card slot. It also includes OPPO’s RAM Expansion technology, which can be used to temporarily convert free ROM space into a maximum of 8GB of RAM to keep the phone running smoothly during heavy-load scenarios.
At the system level, OPPO’s self-developed Dynamic Computing Engine uses parallel computing technology to optimize the scheduling and recovery of computing resources to boost overall speed and stability. On the A78, the Dynamic Computing Engine can increase app opening speeds by as much as 1.42%. It also helps to keep up to 19 apps running in the background at the same time without any noticeable lag.
Thanks to all these optimizations, the A78 provides silky-smooth performance for up to four years, ensuring users can enjoy a longer-lasting smooth experience compared with other smartphones at a similar price point.
An enhanced Ultra-slim Retro body with industry-first Diamond Matrix Design
The A78 is available in two fresh, trendy color finishes – Aqua Green and Mist Black. Inspired by water, the Aqua Green A78 uses a double-layer process to superimpose an industry-first Diamond Matrix Design atop a water green base layer. The result is a vibrant, energetic color that sparkles like diamonds floating on a delicate surface of jade water to create a uniquely exquisite appearance. Mist Black meanwhile adds a touch of yellow-green to a pure black color base to introduce a sense of dimensionality to the phone.
The A78 inherits the same iconic Ultra-Slim Retro Design as previous models in the OPPO A series with the introduction of several new upgrades. The 2.5D right-angled middle frame and smoothed edges give the phone an integrated sleek and lightweight appearance while also making it more comfortable to hold. Even with its large 5000mAh battery, the A78 continues the same slim and lightweight design of the Reno series, measuring as little as 7.93 mm in thickness and weighing only 180 g to make it the thinnest phone with a 5000mAh battery in its price range.
Alongside these design upgrades, the A78 also features enhanced quality and durability. The phone has been put through some of the most rigorous durability tests in OPPO’s lab to make sure that it is ready to stand up to the challenges of everyday life. It is also rated IP54 waterproof, meaning it won’t be phased by regular splashes and spills.
A smarter and more private ColorOS 13.1
ColorOS 13.1 on the A78 is designed for enhanced convenience and privacy. Among the new features in the latest ColorOS is Screen Translate, which uses Google Lens to translate the content of an entire screen with just one click from the sidebar. With support for intelligent translation between 105 languages, Screen Translate can even be used to translate image-based text. Auto Pixelate can automatically recognize and pixelate sensitive information like profile photos and names on chat screenshots with just one click.
Further to this, ColorOS 13.1 includes an updated Private Safe that has been upgraded with the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) to keep private files encrypted and stored in a private directory with a higher level of security. 5-Grade Access Control has also been added to give users complete control over who can see their data and when.
OPPO A78 device is available for purchase at authorized retail stores across the country from N188,000. OPPO A series has developed a reputation over the years for offering great features at accessible price points and this Qualcomm CPU-powered device is not different.
Big Brother Naija “All Stars” housemate,Venita Akpofure, levelled some serious accusations against her fellow housemate, Pere Egbi, during a heated exchange.
The incident occurred as they were preparing for a wager task on Wednesday, August 10th. The task involved shooting a film where the housemates were required to wear traditional costumes.
Pere, who was assigned the role of director for the movie, directed that Venita’s cap be placed on Kiddwaya’s head. When Venita declined, Pere took a more authoritative tone and even instructed her to sit down.
Refusing to comply, Venita retorted by telling Pere to kiss her behind. In response, Pere said her father should kiss her a$$ instead.
This deeply angered Venita, who emphasized that Pere had no right to bring her father into the discussion. She asserted that while her relationship with her father might be strained, she alone has the privilege to criticize him.
In the midst of her anger, Venita went on an insult spree, accusing Pere of engaging in inappropriate behavior both inside and outside the house. She alleged that he stands naked behind people in the shower and behaves oddly.
Furthermore, Venita accused Pere of sending unsolicited explicit images of his genitals to women on social media. She also claimed that she knows what he does for a living outside the house, and questioned his visits to the “state house.”
Venita also claimed that Pere was financially unstable before joining the ‘Shine Ya Eye’ edition and couldn’t even afford his flight ticket to Nigeria for the show.
The Adamawa State Police Command have arrested a drunk man, one Ayuba Danbaki, for allegedly murdering his 2-year-old daughter and burying the corpse in a shallow grave.
Danbaki, who hails from Rigi community, Ga’anda District in Gombi LGA, reportedly killed his daughter after her mother dropped her with him at a local joint where he was drinking beer.
It was gathered that the mother of the deceased, Shiyona Ali, entrusted her late daughter to his care because she was overwhelmed with the responsibility of taking care of her.
Enraged by his ex-wife’s action, Danbaki reportedly carried the toddler into the bush, tied her neck with a rope and buried her in a shallow grave.
When questioned if he knew the consequences of his action, Ayuba claimed not to know, stating that many people in his community are ignorant of the gravity of such crime.
While being interrogated, the suspect said;
“I killed my daughter, because I became angry as to the reason why her mother will dump her with me at a local joint. I used a rope and tied her neck, dug a grave and buried her. I am married and blessed with 6 children including the deceased. I became angry with her mother’s action. It was a mistake. I drink local beer known as”burukutu”. I want to use this opportunity to advise people not to drink beer because it is not good. It makes someone become useless. In fact, a drunk man sometimes defecate in his trouser, vomit or fall on the ground. It makes you to do something and later regret it”.
Meanwhile, the commissioner of police, CP Babatola Afolabi, has ordered that the case be transferred to the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) of the command and for the suspect to be arraigned in court.

Big Brother Naija All-Stars housemates, Pere has explained what kept him from punching Adekunle while the latter was aggravating him with his ranting.
The two had earlier engaged in a heated argument while filming a scene. Pere had demanded that Kiddwaya wear the headgear that was taken from Venita, which annoyed Adekunle.
The former US military officer and Adekunle engaged in a back-and-forth conversation when Adekunle intervened to protect her.
Speaking with Kiddwaya and Cross after the fight, he stated that if Adekunle had continued ranting, he would have struck him with precision.
He said that the realization that he was in Big Brother’s house and on live television was what made him stop.

In other news, Whitemoney sparked hilarious reactions on social media after he revealed his favorite bedroom position.
Last night, the housemates were playing a game in the garden when they challenged Whitemoney to demonstrate his favorite sex position using Mercy Eke as his model.
Without hesitation, Whitemoney happily followed her to one of the garden beds and described how she should lay down for him to demonstrate the style.
Mercy, who gladly obliged, laid face up and lifted her legs to “receive him,” and he proceeded to lay on top of her to display the “missionary position.”
Big Brother Naija ‘All Stars’ housemate, Adekunle lost his cool last night as he clashed with fellow housemate, Pere to defend Venita Akpofure.
The drama began as the housemates prepared for a film shoot that required them to all dress in varied native attire.
Pere, who appeared to be in control of directing the movie, commanded fiercely that Venita’s cap be placed on Kiddwaya’s head.
The housemates were all shocked by the outburst. Adekunle stood out among them by saying that no one should yell at anyone since they are not professionals and are not getting paid for the performance.
The two then got into a verbal altercation as a result of Adekunle losing his composure and yelling at Pere.
Watch the videos below.
In other news, Adekunle poked holes in his co-housemate, Whitemoney’s claim of owning a car dealership.
During a conversation with Venita and Seyi, Adekunle expressed skepticism about Whitemoney’s big tales and statements about his life outside the house.
Adekunle admitted that he enjoys listening to Whitemoney’s ‘tall stories’, but sometimes doesn’t believe them.
He then recounted a conversation with Whitemoney, during which he claimed to be involved in a car business. Adekunle said out of curiosity, he asked about the price of a car, but Whitemoney couldn’t provide an answer.
According to Adekunle, this suggests that Whitemoney might not be who he claims to be, and that his elaborate stories might be a strategy to impress and capture the attention of his fellow housemates.
