Denied by US to fulfil a dream that took him more than 20 years. And he took the blow with smile. Returned home and got awarded $50,000 by one Somali presidential candidate. An amount he would have been paid in the for the entire tournament. Mobilisation of upto $1 million by the Somali community both at home and abroad is underway. UEFA has now appointed Omar Artan to officiate one of the most watched football finale, the UEFA Super Cup. And could be on top of the list for the next AFCON and World Cup. Some blessings come disguised as disappointment. If God has decided it's yours, it will be yours.

"When Davido reached out to me to collaborate with him on his song KANTE i was overwhelmed with joy. Me and my friends held a mini party in my house to celebrate but something happened that day really swept me off my feet... I was ready to record the verse for free but David insisted that they must pay me for my gifted talent. He told me to keep idol and his status aside and tell him how much i would charge he’s ready to pay. We made KANTE and it was literally everywhere. All my believe was like DeMm it's over now, i should go my way and continue flexing the millions he paid me only for me to received a text from him again. OBO requested me to join him on his TIMELESS album tour in the UK 🤯.. Both transportation, Feeding, shopping, accommodation and literally everything was paid and covered by him. and still yet i was was still credited another million for honoring his invitation. Months went by and he connected me again for KANTE video shoot. He took me to different countries for the video shoot and still rewarded me. All i can say about that man is that he’s someone who understands the value of talent. No matter how big he has become ig he features you as an upcoming artiste your life will change after song. Davido deserves that crown as his mention himself as the OO1. — Afrobeats songstress Fave 🗣️

A Dream became reality.

Phyno said it publicly: "Genevieve Nnaji is my crush. I will give anything to have her." Then put her name in his album No Guts No Glory, repeatedly. MI Abaga said on live TV: "I wouldn't even make out with her. I would just stand very close to her in an elevator and soak up her aura." Wizkid said: "I really had a crush on Genevieve until I met her and realized she was my aunty. I said 'Good evening ma.'" Three grown Nigerian men. Public confessions. Zero shame. Genevieve remained completely unbothered by all of it. She has always known her power.

Drake DISGUISED himself as a news reporter and started asking strangers on the streets of L.A. for their opinions on Drake, only for them to nonstop hate on him 😭💔 “How do you feel about Drake?” “I don’t like Drake I think he’s inaccurate he’s not a real rapper” “I agree 100%”

I don't care what anyone says: My wife MUST adopt my surname after marriage. Take your woke ideology and modernization nonsense somewhere else. If she cannot adopt my surname, she can go back to her father's house. We cannot even be married if she is unwilling to drop her surname and take mine. That conversation happens before the wedding. The order I know in marriage is simple: the man leads, the woman follows. She leaves her father's house, his provision and protection, to submit under her husband's covering. I become responsible for her provision, protection and leadership over her and our children. If you cannot change your surname on your NIN, BVN and every other document, remain single. Or better still, go and find those emasculated, weak men who are comfortable doing 50/50 with you. Some of us still know what marriage is. Above all, love God.

Throwback to a funny moment with Tiwa Savage during one of her performances. She invited a male fan on stage and was about to gift him $1,000. But after noticing the gold chain around his neck, she jokingly asked: 🗣️ “With this kind of chain, are you sure you still need money?” Without wasting time, the man quickly removed the chain and threw it into the crowd. He then told her confidently that he truly needed the money. For a brief moment, everyone was surprised - then the whole crowd burst into laughter 😂 Tiwa Savage was clearly amused by his bold move and sense of humor, and she went ahead to give him the $1,000. It turned into a funny and memorable moment that fans still talk about today 😄 That thing no be real chain shaa!

“My stepmom asked my father to choose between her and me, he chose her.

That was how i ended up in the street and the street is doing me well” Nollywood actor Charles Inojie reveals.

Good day sir @iamnasboi , please assist me in quoting this post. I am a survivor of banditry—my struggling mother paid ₦17 million as ransom for my release, yet I was not freed. By God’s grace, I eventually escaped miraculously. Right now, the burden of the debt is overwhelming. The initial debt was ₦6.2 million. With the support of kind people on Instagram and X, I’ve been able to raise ₦2.6 million, but I still have ₦3.6 million outstanding. Please sir, any help you can offer in amplifying my story to reach a wider audience will mean a lot. I truly need all the support I can get. Thank you boss. ❤️

JUST IN: President Bola Tinubu’s Chief of Staff, Femi Gbajabiamila, has been caught on video openly advising Leke Abejide, a key figure in the African Democratic Congress (ADC), to remain in the party and “fight them… scatter them.” In the viral video, Gbajabiamila, while speaking with Abejide, urged him not to abandon the ADC despite ongoing leadership crises and court battles rocking the opposition party. “I know you to be a committed party man. I know you to be a fighter… So please, my charge to you is to stay in that same ADC. Fight them. Scatter them! Hold on to your party, ADC. Do not abandon them. We like what you are doing. Continue,” Gbajabiamila said. He dismissed suggestions that Abejide should leave the ADC, insisting that the party belongs to him since he built it “with your sweat and your money.” “Don’t mind them — the former Governor said that you should come and join… No, no, no. Stay in ADC. Win your election in ADC as you will. Bring Dada Gombe… Those of us in support… Do the right thing. You are a fighter,” he added. Gbajabiamila further encouraged Abejide to fight in court to retain control of the party. The explosive video has sparked massive outrage online, with many accusing the Tinubu administration of actively working to destabilise the opposition ADC ahead of the 2027 general elections. Watch the video in the comment section.

Getting a rejection email is one thing Getting AN UNEDITED AI WRITTEN REJECTION EMAIL is an entirely different thing 😭😭 Like they didn’t even utilize a single brain cell on the email I can’t even be sad, good riddance ✋🏽😭

Jesus Christ 🤯😭💔 I’m just seeing this Eruku Church video for the first time. Let me share my experience regarding this incident. It was around day 26 or 27 while I was still in captivity, with no hope of getting out alive. They were demanding ₦55 million, even after my mum had struggled to pay ₦15 million already. One day, many of the bandits in that area gathered at our location. They came in large numbers on different bikes. Honestly, I thought they had come to kill us. I didn’t know it was a meeting to plan their next operation. The meeting lasted for hours. After that, they all left, leaving just two errand boys with us. Two days later, at night, we started hearing loud bike sounds again—so many of them. This time, they came back with people they had just kidnapped: men, women, young ladies, and even children. They were 38 in total. They brought them to where we were, and the women started crying and praying loudly to God (CAC) for deliverance. One lady sitting close to me quietly explained what happened. She said they were in church that evening for a praise night when they suddenly heard gunshots from different directions. Some people were killed, some escaped, and others—including them—were taken. I shared my own story with her too, and we spoke quietly. The next day, the bandits told them to start calling their families for ransom. They initially demanded ₦100 million per person. One woman cried out that they didn’t even have ₦1 million. They gave them time to contact their families. Later, we were made to cook rice for them—just plain white rice, no seasoning at all. To be honest, they didn’t rape any of the women. They were even joking around sometimes, asking the young ladies to marry them. They stayed with us for about five days. On the fifth day, they took all 38 of them away. We didn’t know where they went or what happened next. A few days later, some of the bandits returned and were discussing the operation with the errand boys. The next day, one of the errand boys told us that all 38 people had been released, and that the Kwara State government paid ₦350,000 for their ransom. 💔
