“He parked in a no-parking zone” – Opera singer Abiodun Koya reveals why she declined further dates with Ned Nwoko

By

Opera singer Abiodun Koya has shared the unexpected reason she decided not to pursue a relationship with the Senator. Ned Nwoko, after a single date many years ago.

Speaking on a podcast session, she clarified that she and the lawmaker were never close, explaining that the outing happened about a year and a half before he met Regina Daniels.

The singer stressed that the encounter occurred long before Nwoko’s marriage to the Nollywood actress.

According to Abiodun, her decision was shaped by one seemingly small but significant moment that occurred when Ned arrived to pick her up for dinner at a luxury hotel in Abuja.

As she stepped outside, she noticed that he had parked his high-end vehicle directly in a space clearly marked No Parking.

Koya said the gesture immediately struck her as a red flag, explaining that while many people might overlook such an action, she is someone who pays close attention to little details, especially when they reflect a person’s values.

She added that the senator’s disregard for a simple rule made her question what such behaviour might signal for a future relationship or family.

“I was thinking, if I got together with you, what are you going to teach our sons? If he can’t respect rules and laws, I don’t want to be with him,” she said.

The incident, she noted, was decisive enough for her to decline any further interaction.

Koya concluded that some principles, no matter how minor they may appear, carry significant weight in determining compatibility.

The Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency (DSVA) has officially confirmed that Nollywood actor Olanrewaju James, popularly known as Baba Ijesha, has been added to the Lagos State Sex Offenders Register following the completion of his prison sentence for the sexual assault of a minor.

Baba Ijesha, who was convicted in 2021 for assaulting a 14-year-old girl, was recently released from custody.

Shortly after his release, an unverified video circulated online showing him seated in a vehicle, appearing relieved and stating that he needed rest.

The state government’s confirmation came amid false reports claiming that the Court of Appeal had overturned his conviction.

Lagos State Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice, Lawal Pedro, SAN, dismissed the rumours as false and irresponsible, stressing that Baba Ijesha’s conviction remains valid.

He also cautioned actor Yomi Fabiyi and others spreading the misinformation to stop misleading the public.

In an official statement shared on X (Twitter), the DSVA reaffirmed the Attorney-General’s position and confirmed that the actor’s name has now been listed in the Lagos State Sex Offenders Register in accordance with Section 37 of the Lagos State Domestic and Sexual Violence Agency Law (2021).

The agency said the move is part of ongoing efforts to protect minors, ensure accountability, and provide the public with accurate information about convicted offenders.

“He didn’t care to ask if I was ok” – Fan speaks out after being removed from Burna Boy concert

The woman who was asked to leave Burna Boy’s concert in Colorado has spoken out after a viral video showed the Grammy-winning artist pausing his performance to call out her and her boyfriend for sleeping in the crowd.

The woman, commenting under a TikTok post of the incident, said the moment was embarrassing and humiliating for both her and her boyfriend.

According to her, the situation was misunderstood, and Burna Boy made no attempt to find out what was actually going on.

She explained that she has been mentally, physically, and emotionally drained following the recent passing of her daughter’s father, and she attended the show hoping to lift her spirits.

However, she said Burna Boy took a long time to come on stage, and exhaustion caught up with her.

“I am the girl that was kicked out of the show last night. Burna Boy could’ve handled that situation better than that. He had no idea what was going on with me, and he didn’t even care to ask if I was ok. He took forever to come out, and I was tired. We paid to be there, and if I wanted to close my eyes and sleep, I can do that. It is my money that I wasted, not his.” She wrote

The woman also addressed negative comments directed at her online, urging people to show empathy instead of judgment.

Nollywood actress Regina Daniels has released a series of intense posts on her Instagram Story, accusing her estranged husband, Ned Nwoko, of trying to destroy her reputation.

In an emotional outburst, Regina claimed that she has been fighting for her freedom since being trapped in the relationship from age 17.

She alleged that Ned is attempting to ruin her because he knows that in my part of the world, a good reputation equals money.

The actress made several serious accusations, including claims that Nwoko introduced her to the drug ecstasy (Molly) during their marriage.

According to her, it was encouraged to help her satisfy him sexually, further alleging that this dynamic contributed to what she described as distressing and unwanted situations during intimacy.

Regina also claimed that Nwoko frequently used Viagra, which she says resulted in repeated blood pressure complications that required hospital visits.

Adding that Ned attempted to use a fake drug report to discredit her in what she suggests may be a looming custody battle over their children.

She claimed that members of his inner circle had been calling her a drug addict, and she believes the accusations are meant to sabotage her image.

Throughout the posts, Regina described feeling pressured, monitored, and overwhelmed, saying the situation has left her feeling mentally suffocated.

She also warned that if the alleged attacks on her character continue, she may reveal more information about him, referencing unverified allegations involving murder case, land grabbing, and fraud.

Regina ended the posts by urging Ned Nwoko to move on by marrying a new wife.

Regina Daniels’ brother, Sweezzy, has made a series of explosive allegations against her husband, Ned Nwoko, in a lengthy Instagram post.

The claims, which span alleged forgery, document manipulation, drug accusations, and domestic issues, have sparked widespread reaction online.

In the viral Instagram post, Sweezzy accused Nwoko of falsifying multiple documents, including what he described as a fake doctor’s report, a fake marriage certificate, and a fake voter’s card.

He further alleged that the voter’s card the senator had posted online to clarify Regina’s age, was printed in Ned Nwoko’s sitting room at Ugboko.

Adding that only Regina’s voter card carries his family name, Daniels, while every other document carries ‘Ojeogwu’.

Sweezzy also claimed that Regina never went with Nwoko to any marriage registry and warned him against posting what he called a fabricated marriage certificate online.

The actor’s brother went on to restate that Regina was born on October 10, 2001, insisting that older documents would prevail as evidence in any legal context.

In another set of allegations, Sweezzy accused Nwoko of abusing Regina and using his long-reported health issues as a tactic to apologise.

“Your kidney failure has been your technique for always saying sorry to Regina after abusing her in your home” He said. Adding that Regina had supposedly told him that Nwoko blackmailed her with [his] illness.

He also denied claims that he or his siblings had ever been involved in cocaine use or supply, describing such accusations as ridiculously outrageous.

Paystack, the Stripe-owned Nigerian payments company, has suspended its co-founder and chief technology officer, Ezra Olubi, following allegations of sexual misconduct involving a subordinate.

The allegation surfaced on social media on Wednesday, November 12, 2025, prompting swift public scrutiny.

The company confirmed the suspension to TechCabal, stating it has opened a formal investigation.

“Paystack is aware of the allegations involving our Co-founder, Ezra Olubi. We take matters of this nature extremely seriously. Effective immediately, Ezra has been suspended from all duties and responsibilities pending the outcome of a formal investigation.” The company said in a statement.

Paystack added that, out of respect for the individuals involved and to protect the integrity of the process, they will not comment further until the investigation is complete.

The allegation has also renewed attention on several decade-old tweets posted by Olubi between 2009 and 2013, many of which contain sexually explicit content, references to colleagues, and comments involving minors and sexualized anime characters.

In one resurfaced tweet from May 23, 2011, he wrote, “Monday will be more fun with an ‘a’ in it. Touch a coworker today. Inappropriately.”

The tweets, written years before he co-founded Paystack, re-emerged on Thursday and spread rapidly across X, intensifying scrutiny as the company proceeds with its investigation.

Olubi has not publicly addressed the tweets or the misconduct allegation; rather, he deactivated his X account on Thursday, November 13, 2025.

The resurfaced posts come at a time when Africa’s tech ecosystem has been increasingly forced to confront allegations of workplace misconduct among sector leaders.

Paystack is widely regarded as one of the most influential technology companies in Africa.

Launched in 2015, it became one of Y Combinator’s early African investments and was acquired by Stripe in 2020 for $200 million, one of the continent’s landmark exits.

Its alumni network has since seeded new ventures in logistics, fintech, and financial infrastructure across the region.

Cardi B has welcomed her fourth child and her first with boyfriend Stefon Diggs, the rapper confirmed on Instagram on November 13.

The Grammy winner announced the news with a video of herself lip-syncing to ‘Hello,’ a track from her album Am I The Drama?.

In the caption, she reflected on a period of transformation, writing, “My life has always been a combination of different chapters and seasons… I brought new music and a new album to the world! A new baby into my world, and one more reason to be the best version of me… I’ve learned, I’ve healed, and I’m loving the woman I’ve become!”

Shortly after, Cardi shared an Instagram Story showing pink and floral strollers, teasing followers before clarifying that the baby is a boy. “I just like girly things!” she joked, noting that Diggs had already revealed their son’s gender.

Cardi first disclosed her pregnancy in September during an interview with Gayle King on CBS Mornings, saying she felt happy, strong, and powerful while balancing motherhood, music, and work.

She also playfully encouraged fans to support her new album so she could buy diapers.

The rapper is already mom to three children with estranged husband Offset, daughter Kulture Kiari, 7; son Wave Set, 3; and daughter Blossom, now 15 months old.

Cardi filed for divorce in July 2024, with proceedings still underway.

Cardi and Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs took their relationship public in May 2025 during a Boston Knicks vs. New York Celtics game, though reports connected them as early as October 2024.

The Lagos State Government has announced plans to partially close sections of the Lekki–Ajah corridor for eight months to enable major rehabilitation and improvement works aimed at easing traffic congestion and enhancing road safety.

Commissioner for Transportation, Oluwaseun Osiyemi, disclosed this in a statement on Wednesday, explaining that the project will run from Saturday, November 15, 2025, to Wednesday, July 15, 2026.

According to Osiyemi, the rehabilitation has already started, with preliminary works to be carried out in two phases to reduce disruption to vehicular movement along the busy corridor.

He explained that the first phase will cover seven sections of the road, during which one lane will be closed while the other remains open to motorists.

Once repairs on the first lane are completed, construction will switch to the opposite side.

For the second phase, vehicles moving from Ajah toward Lekki will be diverted to one lane while work continues on the other.

Osiyemi noted that some portions of the corridor will experience partial closures for the duration of the project.

He appealed to motorists and residents to remain patient and cooperate with traffic officers, emphasizing that the state government is committed to providing durable and efficient road infrastructure.

“Motorists heading toward Lekki and Ajah will continue to have access throughout the construction. When the first lane is completed, work will shift to the second. At all times, movement toward Ajah will remain open. We urge road users to obey traffic officials and follow diversion signs as directed. These repairs are part of the Lagos State Government’s efforts to improve road conditions and ensure safer, smoother journeys for everyone.” The commissioner said

A Nigerian teacher’s candid story about a humbling encounter with a pupil at Chrisland School, VGC, Lagos, has gone viral on X (Twitter).

In the now-viral post, the teacher narrated how he took up a temporary teaching gig at the elite Lagos school during summer classes only to be confronted with several moments of culture shock.

According to him, one of the most unforgettable incidents occurred after a class session when a young pupil, estimated to be between 8 and 11 years old, innocently asked where he had parked his car.

The teacher said he was left speechless and deeply humbled, adding that he waited for the pupils to enter the swimming hall before leaving the school to avoid further embarrassment.

“A female pupil (maybe around 8–11 years old), who was on her way to the swimming hall, walked up to me with two of her classmates and asked, “Where did you park your car?” Faking a smile, I replied in a shaky voice, “I don’t have a car.” Looking surprised, she asked, “Why don’t you have a car?” At that point, honestly, I wished rapture would just happen and take me away. I laughed awkwardly and said, “Nothing, I just don’t have a car.” She laughed and said, “That’s weird, my cousin has a car and he’s just 17.” Then she walked away giggling with her friends. I stood there, humbled and still in shock. I brought out my phone, pretending to want to make a call (I would call a car dealer at that moment if I had the money) but I was really just waiting for them to enter the swimming hall before I left. Because if that girl saw me again or asked one more question, I might’ve burst into tears.” He wrote

He concluded the post with the saying, All fingers are not equal, admitting that although he laughed it off, the experience made him rethink his life choices and circumstances.

The family of late Nigerian singer Ilerioluwa ‘Mohbad‘ Aloba has renewed its call for a transparent investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death, while instructing his widow, Wunmi, to stop using the Aloba surname until a court-ordered DNA test confirms her son’s paternity.

In a statement jointly signed by family head Omolayo Aloba and Mohbad’s father, Joseph Aloba, the family reaffirmed its commitment to pursuing a transparent, independent, and comprehensive investigation into the singer’s death.

The statement also announced Oladayo Ogungbe, Esq. as the family’s sole legal representative for all estate and DNA-related matters, while Dr. Wahab Shittu, SAN will continue to represent them before investigative authorities.

Additionally, three administrators Ajewole Aloba, Rasaq Famuyiwa, and Alonge Aloba were appointed to manage Mohbad’s assets.

One administrative position, the family noted, will be reserved for Wunmi if the DNA test confirms that her son, Liam, is Mohbad’s biological child.

The family directed Wunmi to cease using the surname Aloba in public or private records until lawful confirmation of paternity is obtained, adding that no statutory or customary marriage existed between Mohbad and Wunmi Adebanjo.

According to the statement, if the DNA result establishes that Liam is indeed Mohbad’s son, both Wunmi and the child will be formally recognized in the ongoing estate administration process.

Mohbad, who died on September 12, 2023, at the age of 27, has yet to be buried more than a year later as his family continues to demand justice and clarity over the circumstances of his untimely passing.

Human rights activist and publisher of Sahara Reporters, Omoyele Sowore has accused Senator Ned Nwoko of marrying popular Nollywood actress Regina Daniels, while she was still a teenager, contradicts the senator’s recent statement that she was 21 at the time of their marriage.

In a post shared on his verified X (Twitter) handle, Sowore alleged that evidence now in the public domain shows that Nwoko entered into marriage with Regina when she was underage, and that the couple travelled abroad soon after she turned 18.

The activist further claimed that Ned Nwoko personally handled Regina’s travel documentation for the trip, citing accounts from those familiar with the matter.

Sowore also accused the Delta North senator of using his wealth and political influence to intimidate critics, including members of his estranged wife’s family, through the Nigeria Police Force.

“Ned Nwoko personally handled her travel documentation for that trip, according to accounts from those familiar with the matter. The same senator, long known for flaunting wealth and influence, has frequently used the now disgraced Nigeria Police Force to intimidate and detain members of his estranged wife’s family and others speaking against his well-documented impunity. This pattern of harassment must stop.“ He wrote

Sowore’s post comes shortly after Ned Nwoko released a statement denying that he married Regina Daniels when she was 17, insisting that she was 21 and had presented her INEC voter’s card to confirm her age.

Businessman and politician Ned Nwoko has publicly denied allegations by his wife, Regina Daniels, that he married her when she was 17.

In a statement shared via his official X (Twitter) account, he described the claim as entirely untrue and misleading, insisting that Regina was 21 at the time of their marriage.

According to Nwoko, he has kept a copy of the voter’s card since their first meeting and added that a BBC interview granted by Regina’s mother after the marriage also confirmed her age.

“For clarity, during my first meeting with Regina, I asked her age, and she told me she was 21 years old. I further asked if she had any documents to support this, and she presented her INEC voter’s card, which clearly shows that she was born on October 10th, 1998. I informed her that I would keep this document in my possession, and I have done so since that day. I have also seen a BBC interview with her mom granted after our marriage regarding her age. According to all verifiable records, our marriage took place six years ago, which means Regina is 27 years old today.” He wrote

The politician also urged the public to treat Regina’s recent claims with caution, citing her current mental condition and ongoing struggle with drug addiction.

Tensions appear to be escalating in the Nwoko household as Laila Nwoko, one of the wives of billionaire politician Ned Nwoko, has publicly refuted claims made by her co-wife, Regina Daniels, that she ever gave her money.

In a strongly worded Instagram post, Laila stated that she is well provided for by her husband and challenged Regina to make their financial dealings public.

Laila went further to accuse the Nollywood actress of being a negative influence within the family, alleging that Regina struggles with drug and alcohol addiction, habits she claimed her husband strongly disapproves of.

According to Laila, Regina once introduced her to drugs six years ago, nearly destroying her marriage before her husband intervened.

“You also know that my husband completely hates alcohol, drugs, and smoking. He has always been clear that he would never accept any wife who drinks, smokes, or uses drugs. The only reason you are fighting my husband is because he wants you to stop your drug and alcohol addiction. It has always been a serious matter for him, as he neither smokes nor drinks himself.

You know too well that I almost lost my marriage when you introduced me to drugs 6 years ago and it was my husband’s quick insistence on intervention that rescued me from that dark path. You have been a bad influence since you married into this beautiful family giving drugs to nannies and our workers including your younger sister Destiny. You infected everyone with your virus and this is why I will not trust my daughters around you unsupervised especially when I found out that you were sleeping with every single girl around you.” She wrote

She also accused the actress of influencing domestic staff and family members with similar behavior.

They insisted that their message was not meant to attack the actress but to encourage her to make peace with God by revealing the truth about Mohbad’s mysterious death.

The pair also referenced an earlier prophecy they reportedly made in 2024 concerning actress Regina Daniels, which they claim later came to pass.

The video has since sparked widespread debate across social media with the majority dismissing their claims as attention-seeking and false.

As of the time of filing this report, Iyabo Ojo has not publicly responded to the allegations.

A late-night altercation reportedly broke out on a Nollywood movie set involving actors Taye Arimoro and Peggy Ovire, with both sides sharing conflicting accounts of what transpired.

In a viral live video shared by Taye Arimoro, the actor alleged that the misunderstanding began after he attempted to leave the movie location past his agreed contract time.

According to him, his call time for the next day was 10 a.m., and his contract for that night was meant to end by 11 p.m.

Taye Arimoro further claimed that as tensions escalated, he was assaulted by members of the production team, sustaining injuries to his gum and lips.

He also alleged that his car tires were deflated during the confrontation, preventing him from leaving the location.

However, Peggy Ovire disputed the claims, accusing Arimoro of physically assaulting her driver during the incident.

She alleged that the driver was left bleeding from the ear and has since received medical attention.

Both parties have since shared video evidence supporting their respective claims, intensifying public debate about the incident.

The clash, which reportedly occurred during a shoot that extended past midnight, has drawn attention to concerns within Nollywood regarding working conditions, and extended production hours.

Below are some of the comments;

“WTF. how! What’s all this violence on set this days. If u can’t be civil why be in a public place. This is sad.”

“I absolutely condemn how Taye Arimoro was treated. It is totally unacceptable. Forcing him to shoot two more scenes at midnight? Even if you had accommodation for him, most likely NOT!!! His safety? An Actor in the capacity of EP/Producer as well? It is very unacceptable.”

“This is really bad, he should also tell us what really happened because the story is not clear.”

Former Big Brother Naija housemate Beauty Tukura has shared a deeply emotional account of her struggles following her disqualification from the reality TV show three years ago, describing the period as one of the darkest times in her life.

In a candid reflection, the ex-beauty queen revealed that the intense backlash she faced on social media, particularly on Twitter, left her feeling hopeless and misunderstood.

According to her, the criticism was so overwhelming that she felt as though viewers wanted to crucify her, leaving little room for empathy or forgiveness.

She recalled how she avoided contact with her parents despite their efforts to reach out, because the shame was unbearable, but her parents kept sending her messages of love and support.

Beauty went on to disclose that the cyberbullying and judgment pushed her to a dark mental space where she contemplated ending her life.

The constant negative comments from people who only knew her through the show deepened her feelings of despair and isolation.

However, the reality star expressed gratitude to her fans who stood by her through the ordeal. She said their messages of encouragement and kindness gave her the strength to keep going when she felt lost.

While she described her disqualification as the lowest point of her journey, Beauty said it also became the beginning of her emotional recovery and self-discovery.

Nollywood actress Judy Austin has cautioned young women against rushing into marriage, especially due to pregnancy or societal pressure, warning that early marriage has left many people emotionally and mentally scarred.

During a recent TikTok live session, the actress urged her followers to make thoughtful, mature decisions before committing to marriage.

According to her, many young women enter relationships they are not mentally ready for, leading to regret and lifelong struggles.

Judy Austin stressed the importance of self-development and emotional maturity before settling down, noting that individuals must understand themselves and their partners before taking such a serious step.

The actress went on to lament how early marriages have damaged a lot of people, adding that many individuals are burdened with responsibilities they were not prepared for.

She said “The first question you should ask yourself is, Can I spend the rest of my life with this guy? The way this guy is behaving, will I be able to love him, be committed to him, grow with him, and yield with him? You can’t make that decision if you’re still a child.

You can’t make that decision if you’re not mentally ready for that kind of relationship Date people, learn people, understand that you can’t trust anybody except yourself and God. You need to show up for yourself before you expect anyone else to show up for you. So many people are damaged today because of early marriage. So many people have baggage because of it. So many are divorced or struggling to take care of children they weren’t ready for”

Judy Austin concluded by encouraging her fans to focus on growth, prayer, and preparation before marriage to avoid regrets in the future.

The personal assistant (PA) to popular crossdresser EmekaTheStar has cried out for help, claiming his boss is showing signs of mental instability.

In a video shared online, the PA, identified as Jackson, alleged that the media personality’s behavior has recently become erratic following a fallout with SK Records.

While Jackson narrated the incident, EmekaTheStar could be seen in the background tossing items around the house.

“Guys, my name is Jackson, and this is my boss, Emeka The Star. I’m his PA, and his mental illness just came up because of this SK Records and everything. He has been destroying everything in the house. Guys, we really need help. Look at the house, he has broken everything, scattered everything, and even injured me on my hand.” Jackson said

At one point, he responded to his PA’s claims, saying, “Guys, it’s a lie, it’s a joke,” as he continued to throw things.

This comes just weeks after EmekaTheStar publicly accused SK Records of damaging his reputation and halting his career progress.

In an earlier video, he claimed the label’s actions had left him jobless, unable to pay his rent, and struggling to feed himself.

As of the time of filing this report, EmekaTheStar has yet to issue an official statement addressing his PA’s allegations.

Award-winning Nigerian singer Tiwatope Omolara Savage, popularly known as Tiwa Savage, has addressed the viral reactions trailing her earlier comments about being open to becoming a second wife.

In a recent interview, the 45-year-old music star clarified that her statement was made out of frustration and emotional exhaustion, not a genuine desire to marry someone already in a relationship.

Reflecting on her past experiences, Tiwa said her earlier comment stemmed from heartbreak and disappointment in love.

“I was a first wife, where did that get me? I got married as the only wife, but here we are. I’m tired of being heartbroken; maybe I’m getting it wrong. Maybe I should try being a second wife. It’s not my choice, though. I don’t want to. I wish I could tell my truth, but I will be dragged. I don’t want to be, I’m looking for love. Let’s just leave it at that.” She said

The singer, however, made it clear that she does not truly want to be a second wife, emphasizing that what she really desires is genuine love and peace of mind.

Tiwa Savage was previously married to music executive Tunji Balogun, popularly known as TeeBillz.

The couple tied the knot in 2013 and share a son together. Their marriage ended in 2018 after public allegations of infidelity and emotional challenges from both sides.

“Hi, everyone. In the last few days, the only news you’ve heard from me has been difficult, but at this very moment, I would like to share some good news with you. I have been in talks with the ACP in charge of the Area J Command, Elemoro, providing her with all the details necessary, with hopes that the officers at fault would be found and brought to book. I’m happy to let you know that thanks to the effort and investigation of ACP Oluyemisi Ojo, the police officers were found, and disciplinary action has been taken against them. Justice has been served.” He wrote

The reality TV star described the outcome as a huge relief, noting that it restored some level of faith in the police at a time when public trust is generally low.

The reality star also urged the public to remain cautious during the festive season, stressing that harassment is unacceptable and that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity.

“God healed me from cancer, but money played a major role” – Pastor Tobi Adegboyega

Controversial UK-based Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, founder of SPAC Nation, has sparked public debate online after revealing that while God healed him from cancer, money played a major role in his recovery.

Speaking during a recent sermon on purpose and destiny, Pastor Adegboyega emphasized that spirituality alone is not enough to fulfill God’s purpose in life, arguing that financial resources are equally vital to achieving divine goals.

The pastor, known for his luxury lifestyle and controversial views on prosperity, recounted how his wealth influenced the speed of his medical treatment while battling cancer.

“God isn’t about religion, Christianity, or labels. To fulfill God’s purpose, money is essential. God helped me survive cancer, but yes, money did the madness. It was money that put me as the number one priority. Money is my servant. Money was the guy that told the hospital, You’re not going to keep this guy on the waiting list for surgery for three months. Money told them, Number one priority. It was money that spoke.” He said

Adegboyega’s remarks have since reignited discussions about the relationship between faith and wealth, with some applauding his honesty and others criticising what they see as the commercialization of Christianity.

Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, whose ministry often attracts both celebrities and young professionals, has long maintained that prosperity and faith are inseparable, arguing that believers should learn to use money as a tool rather than view it as evil.

Regina Daniels’ brother, Samuel Ojeogwu, popularly known as Sammy West, has reportedly been granted bail after spending several weeks in police detention.

According to reports, Sammy was granted bail in the sum of ₦5 million by a magistrate’s court following allegations of conspiracy, assault, and theft filed against him by Senator. Ned Nwoko.

His release comes amid growing public attention and social media calls demanding justice, with supporters using the hashtag #FreeSammy.

Recall that Sammy West was arrested just days after a video of Regina Daniels surfaced online, showing the actress in tears while alleging domestic violence.

Tensions between both families have reportedly been escalating for some time, fueled by a series of online statements and counter-allegations, including claims by Senator Ned Nwoko linking Regina to alleged involvement with drugs.

According to a family source, the senator is allegedly seeking to involve the NDLEA in a new case against Sammy West, accusing him of supplying drugs to Regina Daniels, despite his recent release on bail.

However, it was pointed out that magistrate courts lack jurisdiction over drug-related offenses, which fall exclusively under the purview of the Federal High Court.

Below are some of the reactions;

“And some will say social media no dey help. Thank God, now Ned let Regina go in peace.“

“So happy for them, this family has been through a lot & everybody just sees them as entertainment when they’re actually human beings too.“

“It’s well, finally, the emotional and mental stress the last few days was too much.“

“They should not just relax ooooh, I feel this isn’t over yet Love and Light GINA”

Ugandan President sparks outr@ge after admitting activists were detained ‘in a fridge’

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has confirmed that two missing Kenyan activists, Bob Njagi and Nicholas Oyoo, were arrested and detained by Ugandan security agents.

A revelation that has stirred regional outrage and renewed concerns about human rights in East Africa.

The activists had been missing for over five weeks, sparking protests and calls for accountability from human rights groups and political observers across the region.

According to reports, Njagi and Oyoo were last seen in October after allegedly being forced into a vehicle by masked men following a rally in support of opposition leader Bobi Wine, the BBC reported.

During a televised interview on Saturday, President Museveni admitted that Ugandan authorities held the men, referring to them as ‘experts in riots’ who were ‘put in the fridge for some days.’

He accused the pair of interfering in Uganda’s internal affairs and warned against external influence in regional politics.

“The ones who are doing that game here in Uganda will end up badly,” Museveni said

The president, who has ruled Uganda for nearly four decades and intends to run in next year’s elections, added that the activists were released following interventions from unnamed Kenyan leaders.

Njagi and Oyoo arrived at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi to a jubilant welcome from supporters and family members.

Njagi described their ordeal as harrowing; “Thirty-eight days of abduction was not easy. We didn’t think that we were going to come out alive because we were being abducted by the military.”

Kenya’s Foreign Minister, Musalia Mudavadi, confirmed that their release resulted from sustained diplomatic engagement between Kenya and Uganda.

Human rights organisation Vocal Africa hailed the activists’ return as a victory for civic activism and cross-border solidarity.

Tragedy struck during what was meant to be a joyous occasion as a retiring nurse reportedly collapsed and died during her church thanksgiving service, held to mark the end of her years of service in the medical field.

According to reports, the woman had gone to church to express gratitude to God for sustaining her through decades of service in healthcare.

She was in high spirits during the service until she suddenly slumped while dancing during the Thanksgiving session.

Fellow worshippers present at the scene immediately moved to help her; however, efforts to revive her proved unsuccessful.

She was later confirmed dead, a heartbreaking twist to what was supposed to be a day of celebration and gratitude.

Internet users have described her death as a sobering reminder of the toll long years of service, stress, and untreated health conditions like hypertension can take on individuals, even those in the medical profession.

Below are some of the comments;

“Such a tragic moment. After dedicating her life to caring for others, it’s heartbreaking that her final act of gratitude turned so sudden and sorrowful. May her soul rest in peace, and may her family find comfort.“

“She wasn’t even able to enjoy retirement before retiring from life, so sad. This is not a good Monday morning video.”

“From retirement in her profession to retirement in this life. May her soul rest in perfect peace, and may this not be the portion of us and our loved ones.“

Media personality Raye condemns the system that protects politicians who abus€ their wives

Media personality, Raye has strongly criticised what she described as a ‘broken system’ that protects powerful politicians accused of abusing their wives, instead of ensuring justice for the victims.

According to her, this should not be happening or allowed to happen in a sane country.

“In a sane country, a senator accused of raping his wife, marrying her at 17, and drugging her would be investigated, arrested, and suspended from office, if guilty. The victim would get protection and justice. But in a lawless one? He’ll deny it, issue a statement, and blame her!” She wrote.

Her statement comes amid ongoing tension surrounding Senator Ned Nwoko and his wife, Regina Daniels, following allegations and public commentary from members of the Nwoko family.

While Raye did not directly name anyone in her post, many social media users have linked her remarks to the recent controversy between the senator and Regina Daniels’ relatives.

The media personality’s comments have sparked reactions online, with supporters praising her for speaking up against the culture of impunity and others calling for due process in handling allegations against public officials.

Below are some of the reactions;

“No. In a sane country, he wouldn’t even dare near a 17-year-old in the first place, let alone marrying her.”

“Since the first time he said his wife used drugs, he should have been picked cos he has implicated himself by not reporting, now Regina has accepted she uses it, and the senator supported her. What other evidence does the count want?”

“The victim is his wife. Consensual rape is unknown to the law in Africa. This is not the UK”
