The man, who goes by the handle @_BobMfonmma, took to Twitter to reveal that he was in dire need of N300,000 in 2021 and needed urgent financial assistance.
According to him, he approached a wealthy friend who allegedly proposed a sexual encounter in return for the requested amount.

He’ll gimme cash. He promised 15k for a massage, that’s for starters… The idea was scary at first. But when I went home. My LGBTKRQ mind analysed it. Till I saw almost nothing wrong with it. I know how I battled with the thoughts for days. After like 5 days, I told him I’ll do it. We fixed a date. A Monday.
On Sunday while in church my mind was racing. Omo I’ve never been in such a dilemma before. I told myself, nothing dey here, run am with CD(which he agreed), collect your money and go, nobody will know.
While heading back home on Monday from my father’s house, in the coach, I randomly opened my Bible app and I stumbled on a portion in Hebrews… Heb 12. I read it more than once. Throughout that day the verse was on my mind. Late in the afternoon, I was walking alone, someone asked me, in my head, “Bob are you worth N300k?” I paused and thought 🤔. No, I’m worth more than that I replied. The voice sked again, “so you go knack that manchi collect 300k, after the money finish nko? Mean say you go dey knack people collect money” That was when I realised that I was about doing runs boy with a touch of LGBTKRQ. OMO I carry phone tell my guy say I no dey do am again. He asked Why? I said I didn’t feel like it again. “what about the money?” I told him I didn’t want his money anymore. He got mad
Long story cut short. 3 people decided to sponsor me, one sent 100k 4 days afterwards. I sorted the issue smoothly. They are still sponsoring me as we speak and I’ve spent more than 300k that’s not my money since 2021. Then I asked myself what if I had knack my guy, naso I for turn LGBTKRQ pikin overnight and them for use me cos I’ll see money and become a slave to it.
NO AMOUNT OF MONEY CAN MAKE ME SLEEP WITH MY GENDER 🙏❤️”

He admitted that there are many performers in the business who are more deserving of praise than he is, though.
Despite this realization, Chatta couldn’t help but wonder why his junior colleagues were getting invitations while he was not.
Ibrahim Chatta insisted he doesn’t let the rejection impact him too much, as hid major goal is to continue pursuing his craft and reaching greater heights.

Nigerian singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has thrown shade at his colleagues who splurge on expensive cars while their families are still struggling to live a comfortable life.
The Zazu Zeh star, known for his outspoken nature and bluntness in expressing his opinions, accused these colleagues of neglecting their families.
He questioned why they would prioritize buying expensive cars to impress others over their families’ well-being.
Speaking in Yoruba, he said,
“You buy cars dey oppress; have you taken care of your home? You get a car, but your family has to suffer. You’re enjoying foreign life as a local. These kids are locals without a level. They don’t know the law; they’ve forgotten home. He used his last card to buy a car, and when he couldn’t afford to fuel the car, he’d trek.”
Although Portable didn’t mention any names, fans speculate that his shade was directed towards his colleague, Zinoleesky, who recently acquired a brand-new Ferrari sports car.
In the comment section of Portable’s post, an Instagram follower wrote, “Is it ZINO?😂”
“Zino’s parents are suffering in Ogun State,” added another user.
“Wetin be portable own like this, me I dey quick vex and I fit unfollow you @portablebaeby the time wey you buy your own car nah everybody congratulate you even me as a fan congratulate you say more keys to come but you Con dey reason @zinoleesky wetin no good.

Nigerian superstar singer, Davido’s first baby mama, Sophia Momodu, has replied to a social media user who asked her for clarification about her recent post suggesting that the singer is a deadbeat father.
Davido is one of the Nigerian celebrities who have been praised on social media for the perceived way he takes responsibility and cares for all his children. He is often cited as an example to be emulated by other celebrity fathers.

Taking to her Snapchat handle, she revealed her intention to change her daughter, Imade’s surname from her father’s “Adeleke” to her own, “Momodu”, as she single-handedly plays the role of both a mother and a father.
“I can’t wait to change my daughter’s last name as I play the role of mom and dad,”she wrote.
A netizen who appeared surprised by Sophia’s recent claim and couldn’t contain her astonishment asked, “Thought Davido was responsible?”

A young man identified as Julius Chukwuebuka was able to escape kidnappers’ den in Anambra forest about two months after he was abducted in Rivers State.
In April this year, Ebuka boarded a taxi from Port Harcourt to Choba, Obio/Akpor Local Government Area of Rivers State, for a job and never got to his destination.
His boss, Prestige Chituru Ikechi, who confirmed the development to newsmen on Monday, June 5, 2023, revealed that the taxi was said to belong to suspected organ harvesters.
According to him, Ebuka and other kidnap victims were taken to Anambra State,
“When he got to Rumuokoro, he entered another vehicle. The people inside the vehicle were talking, he was beginning to feel uncomfortable, so he wanted to come down, and they refused to let him,” Chituru explained.
“When he tried to argue with them, they brought out a gun. At that point, he realized he had gotten into the wrong hand. Then they blindfolded him. He saw himself in a location where he met other people in a room.
“He said every day, they come and they pick one or two persons. Their number kept reducing, until they moved them to another location.”
According to Chituru, the victims escaped when a local vigilante group in the Ozobulu area in Anambra State, intercepted the vehicle used in moving them to another location.
“The people wanted to move them to another location, they now encountered a vigilante group that questioned the kidnappers about what they were carrying,” he said.
“Before they knew it, a fight ensued, and they started firing shots. While they were fighting, he removed his blindfold and tapped some persons who were inside the vehicle with him. They now opened the vehicle and ran into the bush,”
Chituru beckoned on members of the public to be mindful of the kind of vehicles they enter in Rivers State.

I have worked, and I’m still working tirelessly to survive in this country without the support of the government, but …. yet you just sit in your office and come up with different outrageous bills. Nothing is working right in this country, but yet you feel the need to take from where you have not sworn …..
