July 19, 2022

Popular media personality, Dotun, has tackled Nigerians blaming music executive, Olamide, for bringing singer, Portable, to the limelight.

Controversial singer, Portable made headlines on Monday, July 18, after claiming to be the founder of two notorious cult groups, One Million Boys and Ajah Boys.

The groups are notorious for their violent activities and have terrorized Lagos and parts of Ogun state, but their members and sponsors were unknown until yesterday, when Portable identified himself as their founder.

This claim by Portable sparked outrage from Nigerians online, with many blaming Olamide for pushing bringing him to limelight.

Recall that Portable came to spotlight in December 2021 after Olamide jumped on his “Zazu Zeh” track.

Well, addressing those berating Olamide, OAP Dotun, who had earlier called for Portable to be taken to rehab in a series of tweets, stated that no one should blame Olamide for Portable’s actions.

“Baddo gave him a shot. Does that mean he shld be responsible for helping a man fulfill his dream? Baddo gave AG, Lil Kesh a shot etc & they all came from the street. Entertainment is the opium of good & bad. Choose your poison wisely. How to control “YOU” is in ur hands.

If you know the atrocities and lives taken by the people he claimed he worked with then he wouldn’t have spat such from his mouth. Always resist the urge to shalaye and never forget to use your head. Even when your heart goes before it, let the head still be the last

When I spoke about portable the last time, a few of you guys came for me & attributed facts as “Hate” .. you can celebrate someone who is very unruly but don’t attribute an uncouth behavior to success. It’s not. Every drive have boundaries. He is self destruct and needs to chill”

July 19, 2022

Investigative journalist, Kemi Olunloyo has revisited an old beef she had with actress, Ada Ameh, who passed away recently.

The 48-year-old thespian slumped on Sunday, July 17, and was rushed to a hospital in Delta state where she was pronounced dead.

Following news of her death, Kemi took to her Instagram page to recount an online brawl she had with the actress in December 2021, during Sylvester Oromoni’s case.

It would be recalled that Sylvester, a 12-year-old student of Dowen College, was allegedly beaten and fed a corrosive substance by his seniors because he reportedly refused to join their cult. He sadly died from the injuries sustained during the attack.

His death sparked outrage online as netizens called for the culprits to be brought to book. However, Kemi Olunloyo went online to blame the minor for the attack, alleging that he willingly allowed his seniors to beat him up so he could join their cult.

This infuriated Ada Ameh who took to her Instagram page to lambast her for undermining the pain of losing a child, and called her a disgrace to motherhood. Watch here

Well, months after the incident and hours after Ada Ameh was confirmed dead, Kemi went online to bring up the issue again while praying for the actress’ soul to rest in peace.

She wrote,

“#AdaAmeh DEATH: I learned Ada was dining yesterday with friends and suddenly slumped and collapsed. She threatened me and urged her fans to beat me for exposing the truth about the #SylvesterOromoni case in December 2021. She called me crazy, mad and mentally derailed. I’m non of that. I was simply doing my job as a journalist defending media freedom. Many of the fans sent me 900 terrorizing iMessages and 454 WhatsApp messages after Adetoun Onajobi posted my former phone number and old apartment online. Toun started the beating threats and Tacha Akide even tweeted that anyone going to beat investigative journalist should film it. My children 35, 31 and 21 in America were also terrorized. They feared for my life. Even the Landlord and other tenants were worried. I kept every single message. Tonto Dikeh also did the same with every celebrity threatening an investigative journalist for not liking outcomes of my work. They could have just unfollowed me. Today I no longer practice journalism in Nigeria. I am a Wellness & Drug abuse education and prevention expert and Ada is no longer here. Live a good life, never take anyone for face value.

“Classmates that embarrassed me for owing school fees are now trying to reach out” – Singer Joeboy

July 19, 2022

Popular Nigerian singer, Joseph Akinwale Akinfenwa, better known as Joeboy, has shared his grass to grace story while recounting how paying his school fees through secondary school was a struggle.

The 25-year-old, in a chat with media personality Chude Jideonwo, recalled how he was embarrassed and humiliated by some of his classmates for owing school fees.

He claims that most of the people who made fun of him back then have been attempting to get in touch with him now that he is famous, but he keeps ignoring them.

Speaking further, he begged Nigerian school administrators to stop humiliating kids whose parents delayed or couldn’t afford to pay their fees.

“Some Challenges on the way, maybe you fail some exams, maybe you owe school fees. Like there was one part where it was school fees, yea. That thing was so embarrassing, I need to say this on camera to schools. I don’t know whether they still do it but if a child owes school fees, don’t call the child out and say you’re owing school fees, just tell the child not to come to school.

There’s one other thing they used to do, they used to flog the child for not paying school fees. The child doesn’t have money now, so I need to put that on camera for anybody that owns a school who is watching this, do not embarrass the child because he is owing school fees.

So it was really embarrassing for me at that point because I think it affected my esteem too at that point because, I remember one incident, I was in JS3 because they used to come to this class to name people that owe school fees.

So before they even said anything, people were like Aminfewa Joseph, so I still remember till today and I still get those guys for mind, yeah. And they’ve tried to reach out to me, I just ignore them like why are you talking to me? They might not have meant it but e pain me.” He said.

Veteran actress cum evangelist, Eucharia Anunobi, has said those who say people shouldn’t have sex before marriage must be out of their minds.

She said in part,

“The proponent of this wicked agenda of ‘no sex before marriage’ must be completely out of their minds.

“If they are not out of their mind, how can they recommend such a wicked thing?

“How do I get to know if my intended is good in bed?”

“Sex Before Marriage ( premarital sex ) makes it thoroughly difficult for you to extricate yourself from the Web and Strangle hold of an incompatible partner,” she added in the caption.

Your insults and narrative of me do not define me; “Ashewo, Strong Yansh, “see as you be like man”, Midget, Transgender, etc.” – I know who I am.

To those who feel disappointed because the person I was in BBNaija has evolved, please understand that my participation in Big Brother was over 4yrs ago. It’d be a shame if I remained stagnant. Change is constant…if this is not the sort of change you anticipated, hold on to the parts of me you love and focus on them.

To those worried that no man will want to date or marry me. First of all I am not defined by my relationship status or my involvement with the opposite sex.

Secondly, I have a kind man who loves and supports me, he’s not a village man, he’s seen the world and he definitely understands…

Thanks to everyone who loves me and supports my businesses, I don’t take it for granted.”

Tosin took to Twitter to announce his decision after INEC officially announced Adeleke as the winner of the much-publicized gubernatorial election.

According to him, he can’t be from a state that will be governed by an incompetent clown and joker – referring to the incoming governor.

He added that Osun state is dead to him, as he doesn’t want to be associated with a place that’s ruled by an unserious person.

He tweeted,

“I denounce Osun State as my State with immediate effect. I can’t be from a state that will be governed by an inept and incompetent clown. I wish the people of Osun State good luck with their choice. A disgrace and an absolute shame.

Losing a state because of stupid internal politics, everybody wants to play God. Now Osun state is in the hands of a joker. I mean I would feel better if it was a serious individual.

The state is dead to me sha. I would greatly love to be disappointed and proven wrong by Adeleke, one of the times I would love to eat my words, because that will mean progress for the state.”

Nollywood actress, Eve Esin has cleared the air on claims that she was once in a romantic relationship with Chacha Eke’s estranged husband and filmmaker, Austin Faani.

This comes after a blogger, Gist Lover, alleged that Chacha Eke snatched the filmmaker from Eve some years back in a bid to rise to the top of her career quickly.

According to Gist Lover, Eve was the one who introduced Chacha to the Nollywood movie scene and gave her the opportunity to become the popular actress she is today, but she repaid her back by getting pregnant for Austin Faani – her alleged lover at the time.

Following the controversial news, social media users trooped to her comment section to hear her side of the story to which she told them to ‘knock and she would open the door for them”. Read here

Eve has now released a statement to debunk the report while noting that she has never had sex with Austin as claimed in the article.

She also stated that she didn’t introduce Chacha to acting and neither did she provide accommodation for the mother of four at the beginning of her career.

According to her, the report is nothing but a lie because she and the celebrity couple who are now separated are friends.

Read as she wrote below,

“I apologize to my loved ones who reached out and said I should ignore. Some things are hard to ignore.

If there is a supposed issue as said. Isn’t that sad enough? It’s worrisome that some person is dragging them back and forth. How do both parties heal?

FOR THE RECORDS:

1. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY CARNAL KNOWLEDGE OF AUSTIN FAANI. CHA AND FAANI ARE MY FRIENDS.

2. I NEVER BROUGHT CHA TO NOLLYWOOD, WE MET ON SET AND BECAME FRIENDS.

3. CHA NEVER LIVED WITH ME IN PHC. A FRIEND VISITS A FRIEND. HOW DID FRIENDSHIP TRANSLATE TO BEING A BOSS?

This post is so you exonerate me from stories that do not concern me. I cannot be involved in what I know nothing about. Let these people heal.

And to those who have nailed me on the cross already, thanks.”
