BBNaija: Nengi in tears as Ozo ignores her during party
Just a few hours to the Lockdown season’s grand finale, the finalists were treated to a last Saturday night party, this time with evicted housemates in attendance.
According to Nengi, Ozo ignored her. Even when she tried talking to him, Ozo gave her attitude.
His actions really hurt Nengi and she could not hold back her tears.
But it was all fun until the party ended and Nengi broke down in tears, lamenting that most of the evicted housemates who she thought were her friends ignored her during the party, including her ‘best friend’ Ozo.
This came as a surprise to many considering Ozo was so much into Nengi during his time in the house. He even professed his love to her but got turned down. He, however, promised not to give up on her.

Funke Akindele,Toyin Abraham in another battle of wits
Funke Akindele,Toyin Abraham in another battle of wits
It is no news that in the last five years, film producers cum actresses, Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham have been engaged in an unspoken rivalry.
In fact, industry players claimed that their rivalry has resulted in both actresses not featuring in the same film until Bolanle Austen Peters decided to have both actresses on the set of Netflix original, ‘House of Gaa.’
The two actresses have become cinema queens after embracing and producing some of Nigeria’s highest grossings films in cinema in the last five years.
Though Akindele seems to have won the battle on the streets of cinema with at least three of her flicks grossing the highest numbers, Abraham has also given her a run for her money every year.

Hence, 2024 won’t be different as both popular producers have their films in the cinema again this December.
With all the right marketing put in place to ensure both films enjoy great time at the box office, the film stars are still not leaving any stone unturned in ensuring they surpass each other in 2024.
Interestingly, the two actresses have shared two common factors that only industry watchers have noticed for the 2024 productions. Both producers have FilmOne distributing their works, which incidentally, are fresh installments of their old franchises – Akindele returns with ‘Everybody Loves Jenifa’ while Abraham is in the cinema with ‘Alakada: Bad and Boujee.’
On Wednesday, December 18, film lovers claimed that both actresses were spotted at the Ikeja City Mall, for meet and greet with fans individually.
It is unsure if the rivalry will see an end as both producers have pitched their tents with a December release in the cinema.
Keen watchers also believe the rivalry might grow further with the entrant of Mercy Aigbe, who seems to have jumped on the wagon after the releases of her films, ‘Ada Omo Daddy’ and ‘Thin Line,’ in December 2023 and 2024 respectively.

Accept broke men or put up with busy ones – Kanayo O. Kanayo tells ladies
Nollywood actor Kanayo O. Kanayo has shared his thoughts on relationships and what women may need to consider when choosing a partner.
In a recent post on his Instagram page, he advised ladies to think carefully about their priorities and what they are willing to accept in a relationship.
Kanayo O. Kanayo suggested that women who are not willing to be with someone who is financially struggling may need to be prepared to date someone who is very busy and has limited time to devote to a relationship.
He presented this as a trade-off, implying that women may need to make a choice between these two options.
On his Instagram page, Kanayo wrote:
“The gentleman’s code: If you don’t want a man who is broke, you are going to have to put up with a busy one.”
In another news, Kanayo defends Davido amid backlash over economic comment.

In a recent interview, Davido advised African Americans against relocating to Africa, citing Nigeria’s dire economic conditions as a case study.
The statement has since ignited widespread criticism, with many calling for the musician to apologize.
However, Kanayo, currently in the UK, addressed the controversy in a video shared on Instagram, urging Nigerians to respect Davido’s right to free speech.
The veteran actor highlighted that Davido, despite his privileged background, made the comments out of concern for the average Nigerian.
Dismissing the demands for an apology, Kanayo said:
“Nigerians make una leave Davido alone about the comment he made; it’s freedom of speech and he made it in good faith. It is left for those in power to work harder to give us a better Nigeria. We need to build a better Nigeria,” he said partly.
“Some people say he should apologize; apologize for what? He’s a Nigerian and he made his statement in good faith. Those who criticize us wants the best out of us. Davido and his family can feed well but he speaks for other Nigerians who cannot,” he added.

Hold Naira Marley, Zinoleesky responsible if I die, says Lil Smart
Singer and dancer Lil Smart has made shocking allegations against his former Marlian Records colleagues, Naira Marley and Zinoleesky.
In a series of Instagram posts on Sunday, December 8, Lil Smart claimed he was violently attacked by the duo and their associates.
According to him, the ordeal began when he was allegedly “kidnapped” and taken to a remote location where Naira Marley, Zinoleesky, and others—identified as “INN” and “MMP”—brutally assaulted him. Lil Smart alleged that he was stripped naked, and his attackers attempted to break his legs with stones.
He recounted narrowly escaping to the expressway without clothes and shared videos showing his injuries, including bruises on his legs, arms, and face. Another video purportedly shows Zinoleesky chasing after him.

Lil Smart also accused Naira Marley of wanting to “kill him,” alleging that the record label was trying to subject him to the same fate as Mohbad, another former Marlian Records signee who tragically died in 2023.
In a chilling claim, Lil Smart shared a screenshot of a message suggesting that Marlian Records planned to harm him, similar to what allegedly happened to Mohbad.
This accusation follows widespread controversies surrounding Naira Marley and his crew after Mohbad’s death, with many Nigerians demanding accountability for the alleged harassment and intimidation faced by artists under the label.
The Marlian Records camp has not yet responded to these new allegations. As the story unfolds, public outrage continues to grow, with many calling for a thorough investigation into the claims against Naira Marley and his associates.
