Big Brother Titans housemate, Jaypee has caused a stir after she revealed she’s in a romantic relationship with seven men.
The 26-year-old, from Nigeria, who was unveiled as one of the 20 housemates for the new reality show on Sunday night, January 15, made this quite shocking revelation while introducing herself in the house to the other housemates.

Her words,
“I have 5 to 7 men on my roster, they are mine to do with as i please. 2 of them are my favourite.”

Uzo Njoku, a visual artist who moved to America when she was seven, stated this on Saturday, January 14, 2023, after her partner said he would introduce her to his parents as an “entrepreneur” rather than tell them she’s an artist.
According to her, she grew up trying to defend her profession, and it’s tiring that she has to do the same for potential in-laws.
“This guy was talking about introducing me to his parents. I asked what would you tell them my occupation is? He said an entrepreneur. I asked why not an artist and he told me to be serious. Like I get how close minded some people are, but there is no way you can be my partner if you’re ashamed to tell people I’m an artist.” She wrote on Twitter.

Today I stand here before you to share my story. It has been a long road to recovery but each day is better than the last.”
“It was Dr. Tayo Ojo, a neurosurgeon here in Nigeria that did the surgery. So many people begged me to leave the country and get the surgery done but something kept me back here because I still had trust in us. We just need more investment in our health sector.
“Education, health. For me… those are the two systems any nation needs to succeed. I’m dedicating my life to seeing that they succeed in our country Nigeria. I hope you see it too.”
Speaking in the video, he said, “One thing to understand is that health issues can happen to you regardless of who you are including me.
“Here I am sitting on this seat sharing my own story about how I had a tumour in my brain. It was so bad that I couldn’t read out of my phone anymore to the point where this eye, I couldn’t read with it and it was also closing. They said it is a Craniopharyngioma and we need to do surgery to remove it.”

“My mom beat me and out pepper inside my vagina for going to my neighbor who is a boy house. My dad beats me till I faint bleeding from my nose, I’ve fainted in school due to beating, eyes, mouth and body swollen for smallest mistakes. They refused to send me to the university.
Because to them I’m not born again enough, or good Christian enough, if I go to the university, the freedom there will move me farther from Christ. I’ll be beaten like a criminal if I don’t go to church. I hated Jesus, church, religion, my parents for years.
I had serious case of low self-esteem, couldn’t walk with my head up high, I still can’t till now, attempted suicide thrice. Became hateful, spiteful, I would imagine evil things happening to them. I even thought of setting the whole house on fire once. Couldn’t heal.
I got married at 18, to leave the house yeah. Didn’t call or contact my parents for 4 years after my marriage. I’m still healing, picking up pieces of my childhood, trying not be the same with my kids. Trying to find a way to let go and forgive. We talk once in a while now.”
Popular Nigerian talent manager, Ubi Franklin, has revealed that superstar singer Davido hired him to manage his woman, Chioma.

However, some Nigerians were displeased with the tattoo and dragged Ubi online, tagging him as a “clout chaser.”
Taking to his Instastories, Ubi said most Nigerians are miserable and see one showing real love and call it clout because they are pretentious.
He wrote;
“Opinionated people:
They have little awareness of how they’re coming off or how others are emotionally reacting to them. Often they have the best of intentions to help whomever they’re speaking to and can’t understand why the other person isn’t happy to hear what they have to say.
Keep your opinions to yourself,
I don’t care how anyone feels about how I have decided to live my life.
Just focus on you and leave I and those I have decided to love out.
Beacuse we are very pretentious about showing real love, when we see real love we call it clout.”
Reality TV star and model, Alex Asogwa better known as Alex Unusual, has taken to social media to speak against drug and substance abuse.
In a post shared via her Instastories, Alex wondered why people still get involved in substance abuse despite seeing the adverse effect it has on others.
She said she still understands those who got addicted to drugs because they were placed on it while sick, but those who willfully use drugs is beyond her.
The former Big Brother Naija housemate further urged people to quit drugs because it’s not good for their health.
She wrote,
“I know most times I say it nicely but it still baffles me.
Why will an adult even get involved in drug abuse in the first place after seeing what it has done to others?
Exception to those that got addicted to it because they were sick and placed on mediation. I’ve heard of such cases but the fact that one will result to drug abuse is sad.
It does no good. Stay away from drugs!!
Hang in there if you are going through a lot.
I know that it feels like nobody understands your pain, you get depressed, tired, you feel alone but please, drugs and suicide is never an option.
Have a good night
Love, Alex.”

“So a little PSA! I’m okay guys Thanks for all the calls and DMs I don’t take your love for granted! ,” she wrote.

Ugoccie shared this during an interview while recalling how she once asked a guy out and he agreed to date her.
According to her, the relationship worked out well for the period they were together.
In her words;
“I have told someone that I liked him before. I told him because most of the time people have this notion that if a lady walks up to someone and says she likes him, she is cheap. If one doesn’t tell a guy about his feelings, how is the guy supposed to know?
It is not always in the place of a man to make approaches. I feel every lady should walk up to a guy and express her feelings. If any guy turns me down, it is fine, at least I tried. I once asked out a guy who did not say no and the relationship worked. However, the guy and I are no longer together.”
She also revealed that she once gave a guy some money she was supposed to give to her family.
“At that point, my family needed the money. I had absolutely no reason to give the money to that guy. The guy and I are not together anymore,” she said.

Remove who you need to remove and add who you need to add. Correct me, reposition me, redirect me, and guide me. I don’t want to settle for a hallucination of what you placed in my heart when I can walk in the dream that you gave me.
“I know I get so overwhelmed trying to worry about the future that I often forget that you haven’t led me to a place that wasn’t part of your plan. I trust the process.” She wrote.
The post has, however, left fans and followers wondering if all is well between her and her lover, Sheggz.

Fashion designer, Omoniyi Olorunyomi Makun popularly known as Yomi Casual, has finally reacted to rumors from some social media users about his sexuality.
In a post shared on his Instagram page this afternoon, the fashion designer denied the claims while raining curses to befall him if it was true that he’s into men.
Yomi said if the rumors are false, may the same curse befall those peddling the rumors.
He wrote;
“It is always easy for friends and family to reach out and always say, “Ignore them… Silence is golden… they will get tired and move on to the next person.” But I am the one wearing the shoes, and I am the one feeling all pains and damages to my reputation as a father, husband, and businessman.
Coming out of church today and having reflected on all the lies against me, I want to say I am not too good a Christian who would turn and take a slap on the other cheek. Enough is enough. Should I Omoniyi, Olorunyomi Makun be gay or nurse any single idea of sleeping with a fellow man, may death take me before my time, may everything that God has blessed me with be taken away from me. May I not prosper in anything I lay my hands to do. May failure become my portion in everything that concerns me till death.
On the other hand, if these are fabrications borne out of envy, jealousy, wickedness, and insecurities, I pray for the same God to vindicate me. May those of you who enjoy and share such lies against me be also entertained with the pain you bring to my family. May that thing that has kept you jobless remain in your lives till death. Today, i pronounce death, doom, and destruction on anyone who would continue to incite lies designed to assassinate my character. I also pronounce the same on those who fall and fly with it without confirmation.
MAY ALL THESE CURSES RETURN TO ME IF I AM TRULY GAY. Enough is enough!
Note: As you come here to say NO BLOG MENTIONED YOUR NAME, but some of you remembered to tag me or put in a comment with my name in their comment sessions… May you and your entire family suffer from depression and untimely death!”
Popular human rights activist, Aisha Yesufu has given her opinion on marriage and its longevity.
Reacting to the news about Patrick and Iretiola Doyle’s marriage, she stated that the focus of marriage should be the happiness of the couple and not longevity.
According to her, people should be comfortable with divorce and understand that they can go their separate ways when the marriage no longer worked out and be happy.
She tweeted;
“We should learn to be comfortable with divorce. The longevity of a marriage should not be the prize. The prize should be happiness, fulfillment and mental well being of the couple involved. Where it is no longer optimal, people can decide to go their separate ways and be happy.”
A while back, Aisha Yesufu reacted to a Twitter user who said he has never seen a fine Edo man in all his years of existence.
The Twitter user shared his observation while reacting to a picture of a former governor of Edo state, Lucky Igbinedion, and the current governor of the state, Godwin Obaseki.
Reacting to the viral tweet that caused quite a buzz on the microblogging platform, Aisha, an Edo-born activist, agreed that men from her state are seldom handsome but stated that they are “fine where men are supposed to be fine”.
According to the mother of two, she can attest to this because her husband is also from Edo state.
“Edo men no dey carry am for face. Na where men suppose fine dem dey fine. As an Edo woman married to an Edo man I confirm to you, dem fine where man suppose fine. ”, she tweeted.
Olawale ‘Brymo’ Ashimi’s manager, Ortega Kakawa has revealed the singer tendered a sincere apology following his comments against Igbos on Twitter.
Recall that Brymo tendered an apology on his Instagram live for his comments about the Igbo people.
He said;
“It is very important you understand that this entire fracas began with me seeing in the media that Chimamanda Adichie (popular author) refused some national honours and had picked up some traditional title in the East at home. And I suggested that for me, it says a lot about the Igbo presidency because that actual seat is what the region should be eyeing right now. I have clamoured for Igbo presidency in the last few years, you wouldn’t believe it. It will pop in your mind when you hear the news that Igbos do not actually want the presidency. I did not insult the tribe, I am sorry to anyone who it sounded as such to. I was trying to weigh into a very important matter.”
However, many people failed to accept the musician’s apology because they believed it wasn’t genuine.
His manager, Ortega Kakawa in an interview with The Punch assured Nigerians that his apology was sincere and not under duress.
In his words;
“Brymo has apologized to the entire Igbo on his Twitter space and Instagram live, where he addressed the fracas and miscommunications he may have caused online. His apology was not under duress but at free will in his personal space. The entire management also sends heartfelt sincere apology to every Nigerian in the country and in the diaspora that may have been affected. We hope every petition signed against him is nullified in good light.”
Nigerian singer, Ugochi Anosike, popularly known as Ugoccie, has reassured ladies that there is nothing wrong with making advances at men.
Ugoccie shared this during an interview while recalling how she once asked a guy out and he agreed to date her.
According to her, the relationship worked out well for the period they were together.
In her words;
“I have told someone that I liked him before. I told him because most of the time people have this notion that if a lady walks up to someone and says she likes him, she is cheap. If one doesn’t tell a guy about his feelings, how is the guy supposed to know?
It is not always in the place of a man to make approaches. I feel every lady should walk up to a guy and express her feelings. If any guy turns me down, it is fine, at least I tried. I once asked out a guy who did not say no and the relationship worked. However, the guy and I are no longer together.”
She also revealed that she once gave a guy some money she was supposed to give to her family.
“At that point, my family needed the money. I had absolutely no reason to give the money to that guy. The guy and I are not together anymore,” she said.

“I have just been reliably informed that the ethnomusicologist, former Music Instructor with the NationalTroupe OfNigeria and one time stand in for the ‘Papa Ajasco’ character on the popular WAP Comic Series ‘Papa Ajasco’ Mr. Femi Ogunrombi is DEAD.

Mayowa Adenekan, Digital Journalist and Talent Manager while also sharing the news on social media said that the late actor was a stand-in actor when the first Papa Ajasco character pulled out.
“Veteran actor Femi Ogunrombi AKA Papa Ajasco is dead. I see a lot of people using images of the first papa Ajasco Mr Abiodun Ayoyinka, but the one that died is Mr Femi Ogunrombi, the one that took over the character when Mr Abiodun Ayoyinka pulled out of the show. May his soul RIP,” he said.
Big Brother Naija star, Kiddwaya, has sparked debate online after he stated that Burna boy’s song made foreigners appreciate Nigerian music.
Taking to Twitter, the billionaire son shared his thoughts on the appreciation of Afrobeats from abroad and stated that Burna Boy’s Last Last made the music industry relevant.
He tweeted;
“Burna boy last last is what made the oyinbo people appreciate our music.”
Reacting to Kiddwaya’s tweet, a Twitter user @iamnotfredrick “All these people wey start to dey hear Nigeria songs around 2017 make una dey know wetin una dey talk, we go soon dey beat ourselves on top opinions.”
@shodekeGbenga, “A Kid will always be a kid because they were never taught history.
Even Burna will never say this.
Pathetic!!!!”
Ezeqwesiri, “lol These guys been jamming to Fela / 2baba/ Wiz … Love Nwantiti – Ckay… Davido – If and Fall and of course AKPI the GOAT made us more popular”
Dan, “This is the problem of Africans always trying to downplay others and give the glory to one person, is this really important, for me everyone of them contributed to the breakthrough including baba Fela, 2face and others who softened and watered the ground for Davido, Wizzy, Burna etc.”
A Nigerian pastor, Tolulope Oludapo, has stated that there is nothing wrong in allowing your friends or family date your ex.
The clergyman made this statement in a lengthy post shared via his Twitter handle while advising people to let their friends get romantically involved with someone they dated in the past.
He said people should not allow “bro code” or “sis code” prevent their friends from dating amazing people, simply because they once dated them.
According to him, people only find it awkward because they engaged in premarital sex before the relationship ended.
Read his full tweet below,
“Unpopular Opinion – Let your friends and family date your ex.
A friend approached me to ask for my blessings. He wanted to date someone I once dated but ended the relationship amicably.
Despite the fact that I was deeply hurt because I couldn’t date her. I mean, I had emotionally invested my being into this relationship for 18 months, still, I gladly gave him my blessing and have been excited about the two of them ever since.
Do not let “bro code or sister code” prevent your friends from dating amazing people who aren’t just your match or fit.
When someone dates or marries someone you’ll have loved to be with, learn to be excited for them. Wish them well, Pray for them. Show and share in their joy.
It might take some work but it important work. Don’t be the wicked sad uhmmm… witch. Jokingly serious. Lol.
Except that ex was a terrible person.
Bdw, did he need my permission or blessing to proceed with the relationship? Absolutely not.
But I appreciate the maturity he displayed in doing that. He had earned my respect forever.
Think of it this way; Would you prevent your friend or family from dating someone who you know is an amazing person just because you both once dated?
We find it awkward because we do and share things only married people should not because it’s bad.”
Music executive, Ubi Franklin has finally replied to those dragging him for tattooing Davido’s late son, Ifeanyi’s nickname on his hand.
Recall that Ubi took to Instagram to share a photo of his tattoo. It spells “Popsicle,” the nickname he gave the late Ifeanyi. The tattoo also includes a drawing of a dove with an olive branch in its beak.
However, some Nigerians were displeased with the tattoo and dragged Ubi online, tagging him as a “clout chaser.”
Taking to his Instastories, Ubi said most Nigerians are miserable and see one showing real love and call it clout because they are pretentious.
He wrote;
“Opinionated people:
They have little awareness of how they’re coming off or how others are emotionally reacting to them. Often they have the best of intentions to help whomever they’re speaking to and can’t understand why the other person isn’t happy to hear what they have to say.
Keep your opinions to yourself,
I don’t care how anyone feels about how I have decided to live my life.
Just focus on you and leave I and those I have decided to love out.
Beacuse we are very pretentious about showing real love, when we see real love we call it clout.”
Nigerian celebrity couple, Adekunle Gold and Simi, celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary on Friday, January 13th, with a loud romantic gesture.
The couple, who are both singers and tied the nuptial knot in 2018, got complementing tattoos to mark their fourth year in marriage, and Nigerians are loving it!
Adekunle Gold took to his Instastory to share a photo of the adorable tattoos as a declaration of their bond and love for each other.
In the photo, AG Baby inked a fully bloomed flower on his arm while Simi inked a flower with the inscription “this flower bloomed in April”, referring to her husband’s tattoo.
He also added Styl Plus’s “Four Years don waka” song in the background to commemorate their anniversary.
Nigerian singer Adekunle Gold’s much-anticipated “Catch Me If You Can” concert was held in Lagos on Sunday, December 18, and the “High” crooner received an outpouring of love from fans and supporters who turned up for the event.
Simi, Adekunle Gold’s wife, who is also a singer, attended the event with their daughter, Adejare, and witnessed her husband’s electrifying performance.
Videos from the event were shared online, and an especially amusing one captured the moment Simi visited her husband backstage after his performance.
As Simi got backstage, she met a female fan who was already there to greet Adekunle Gold after his performance.
Simi, while watching the fan hug her husband, seemed a bit uncomfortable at one point and shouted, “Excuse me, ma,” as though to let the fan know she was there.
