Actor Noel Clarke says he contemplated suicide when more than 20 women accused him of sex offences last year

Noel Clarke, a British actor, has confessed that he considered suicide after more than 20 women accused him of sexual misconduct.

Clarke maintained at the time that he “vehemently” denied any sexual misbehavior or criminal activity, and that no criminal charges had been filed against him.

The actor added that he was deeply sorry if any of his actions affected people in a way he did not intend or realise.

Speaking to The Mail on Sunday, Clarke disclosed that he considered cutting his own throat with a knife, but a question from his 11-year-old son snapped him out of it.

In 2021, the Guardian published the allegations of misconduct from the women who all knew Clarke in a professional capacity.

“Twenty years of work was gone in 24 hours. I lost everything,’ he told the newspaper, adding that his career has been cancelled by the allegations. The company I built from the ground up, my TV shows, my movies, my book deals, the industry respect I had. In my heart and my head it has damaged me in a way I cannot articulate.” Clarke told The Mail.

Following the claims against Clarke, ITV canceled the final episode of the drama Viewpoint in which he starred, and Sky, which had shown Clarke’s series Bulletproof, announced that it would no again work with him.

His membership in Bafta was also revoked, as was his prize for outstanding British contribution to cinema, which he had received in 2021.

However, in March of this year, police announced that no criminal investigation would be undertaken into allegations of sexual misconduct leveled against him.

Scotland Yard said in a statement in March 2022 that expert officers had conducted a comprehensive investigation, but the information did not reach the threshold for a criminal probe.

“No man cheats when the wife is submissive” – Nigerian man says

A Nigerian man has averred that a man will not cheat on his wife if she’s submissive to him.

The man, identified as Waziri Mohammed, from Borno State, made this assertion in a Facebook post.

According to him, men will not cheat if their wives are submissive.

“No man cheats when the wife is submissive”, he wrote.

Meanwhile, media personality, Daddy Freeze has opined that submission in marriage goes both ways, and it’s not reserved for women alone.

He said this while reacting to Bishop Oyedepo’s post on social media where he opined that the only way to a fruitful marriage is total submission on the part of the wife.

The clergyman had earlier shared his opinion on marriage via a post on Instagram that read ;

“The only way to a fruitful marriage is total submission on the part of the wife. Until it is in place, every other thing she tries to do will be out of place. A woman who refuses to submit to her husband is disobeying God. As a woman, you might even be a minister of the gospel, and your husband is not, the Word of God still says to submit yourself to him.”

Which he backed up a biblical verse: “A submissive woman is precious in the sight of her husband – Ephesians 5:22.”

Daddy Freeze, however, countered this school of thought as he thinks it is subject to patriarchy and misogyny. In an open letter to the founder of Living Faith Ministries, He stated that submission goes both ways. It’s not reserved for women alone.

Comedian, Zics Aloma breaks silence on allegation of demanding coitus for roles in his Comedy skit

Zics Aloma reacts

Instagram skit maker, Zics Aloma, has reacted to an allegation of demanding for sex for roles from the actors he features in his comedy skits.

The ‘damning’ allegation was shared online last week by a controversial blogger who berated Zics for taking advantage of up and coming comedians.

Well, Punch reached out to the comedian over the weekend in a bid to get him to deny or confirm the allegation.

Reacting, the 30-year-old said he won’t clear the air about the rumour, and people should believe whatever they want to believe about him.

According to him, it’s normal for people to spread rumour about a successful person.

His words,

“I really don’t want to talk about these things. I have been told that if people don’t talk about one, it means one is really not doing well. I don’t blame any blog for writing whatever they want; I blame people who give them audience, because they are just looking for ways to drive traffic to their blogs. I am not clearing any air. People can believe whatever they want to believe.

“The best thing is for you to watch my skits. Anybody that looks like an up-and-coming comedian should be asked what they did for me to feature them. Everyone that becomes successful, most pass through a channel. I became successful because I put in hard work. I shot content for years without being recognised until it got to a point when I was recognised by people and my content started going viral.

“I work with anybody who I feel can deliver. I shoot most of my contents with celebrities. That does not negate the fact that I can work with someone who has just 20 followers. I don’t compromise my content for anything. Some people offer me money to feature in my skits but I tell them ‘no’ because I don’t like their acting.”

“Bro work out more, obesity is not fashionable” – Uche Maduagwu advises Cubana Chiefpriest

Controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu, has advised celebrity bar man, Cubana Chiefpriest to hit the gym.

This comes after the socialite shared a photo of himself relaxing while on holiday in Bodrum, Turkey, with delicacies in front of him.

In his caption, Chiefpriest advised youths that while they work on having a summer body, they should also hustle hard for money. According to him, “summer money is better than a summer body”.

“You have summer body but you don’t have summer money, no be juju be that. How & where you wan go show the body. Hustle oh!!!! Make your summer body no end for bar beach. As you dey hustle for better body no forget to get plenty money.” He wrote.

The caption seemed to have not sat well with Uche Maduagwu, who slammed him for the advice and urged him to work out more.

In his opinion, Maduagwu noted that a summer body is better than an obese one. He then urged Cubana Chiefpriest to work on his weight so he could enjoy his riches.

“My brother, health is the biggest wealth. Yes it is good to get summer money, but what is the essence of summer money, when summer obesity is dancing zazu for your body ! Ask any doctor and they will advice that obesity is not fashionable. Bro work out more so you can enjoy all your summer zobo money”, he wrote.

“Family can low key be throwing stones at you and still pretend to be protecting you” – Annie Idibia

Nollywood actress, Annie Idibia, has averred that “family” is anyone who takes care of you and does not necessarily have to be biological relatives.

The mother of two stated this in a post via her Instagram story, while advising her fans and followers to always be on guard as some family members are low-key enemies.

According to her, some blood relatives can be secretly throwing stones at you and yet pretend they have your best interest at heart.

In her words,

“Family is who takes cares of you… It doesn’t matter if they are blood related or not! Know this and find peace!!! Family can low key be throwing stones at you and still pretend that they are protecting you. Don’t loose guard. Some families they will judge and condemn you”.

This comes after Annie’s brother, Wisdom Macaulay, publicly chastised her and made damaging allegations against her on social media.

He alleged that the actress and mother of two is a drug addict and introduced him to drugs.

He said despite his appeals for her to give him one of her cars to use as Uber and have a source of income to fend for himself and his family, she vehemently refused, so he could be solely reliant on her. Read here.

Nigerian Youths go berserk as Influencer Papaya gives out ’10 iPhones and a car’ in celebration of 1 Million Instagram followers. (VIDEOS)

Sunday the 29th of May, 2022 is a day that will live long in the memory of most young Nigerians who are active on social media because they witnessed something that had never been seen/heard of before.

Social Media Influencer, Abike otherwise known as Papaya Ex, held a grand celebration to mark a major milestone of 1 Million Instagram followers and it turned into a carnival-like event as her fans trooped out en masse to celebrate with their fave.

It would however be worthy of note to disclose that she’d promised that a lucky fan will go home with a car and 10 other lucky fans, would settle for an iphone, so perhaps that was a motivating factor for those Nigerian Youths to come out in their numbers.

Videos that circulated social media showed that fans were already at the venue as early as 5:30.. male, female or any gender you might think of, they were all present and it became something close to comical.

Passionate fans screamed their lungs out, those who could not scream shed hot tears, those who could not cry took to their knees to pray to whatever god they served to answer their wish to become the lucky winner of the car.

Papaya Ex or bigpaps as she was fondly referred on the night, finally picked a winner for the grand prize and it was nothing short of Euphoria.

I’ve been ready at the hotel for the past 4 hours waiting.

I’m for either cash or a wire.. still nothing!!

I know how mnay people used their last to see me, so because of them.. I will do the show.

– The Headies condemns such acts and are vehemently opposed to the utterance of any threats on actions that contravene our laws.

– We have notified the Nigerian Police Force of Mr. Okikiola’s actions to fellow nominees of the awards.

The organizers also demanded an immediate retraction of the video from Portable’s social media platforms as well as a written apology to the nominees in the categories he’d threatened

Portable later took to his social media page to share a new video where he apologized to the organizers and explained that he was just trying to stand up for the streets because it’s a rare occurrence people like him get that level of occurrence.

“I’m tired of being hardworking. I can’t even blame women who marry or date for financial support” – Eriata Ese laments

Eriata Ese laments

Reality TV star and actress, Eriata Ese has taken to social media to lament bitterly about the struggles of being a hardworking woman.

The BBNaija star who had a stressful day on a movie set on Friday, May 29, said she was tired of working hard and putting in a lot of effort into her job.

According to her, she was wrong to believe that the more money she earns, the more time she would have to relax and have fun, because now she’s focused on earning more money.

The 24-year-old further stated that she totally understands women who date and marry a man because of his money, because working hard for one’s money is not easy.

She wrote on her Snap,

“I’m really tired of being hardworking. I’ve always thought that the more money you have, the more relaxed you should be. But I think that’s lie. Because the more you earn, the more you want. At this point, I can’t even blame those who marry or date for financial support.”

A while ago, Eriata Ese advised single people to remain lonely until they are sure their mind and spirit is ready.

Eriata gave this advice in a lengthy Instagram post while noting that loneliness can make people do things they might regret later.

She urged single people to not let loneliness be the reason for their decision to enter into a relationship, as it can cloud their thinking and not allow them to see people or situations for what they really are.
