Naira Marley wey be your mentor get certificate but, you wey be Marlian no get vision nor any certificate.

To be a first class graduate is very common with overseas universities than in Nigeria... If u won know.. How many dey get first class in public universities in Nigeria only few.

Ok...seen and noted

So Nairamarley is a graduate.not only a graduate o but a 1st class graduate of a renowned University abroad yet recruiting touts, thugs, prostitutes, druggies and other societal nuisances into his debauchery with his music.still the same person that said a big ass is better than MSc

Dido Lobo,jekin tikinie boe and other nasty songs like that

No wonder Yorubas say omolomo lodun ranse detoru toru.can he expose his own children to the kind of life he lives and his music?

Looking at him from afar going by his deliquent music and rough lifestyle I thought he didn't even finish secondary school

Marlians

I don't understand why these BBM Nigeria people are called celebrities,these BBM people have debased the meaning of who a celebrity is.
Adesua is an actress,Naira Marley is a singer,but for OZOM,what has he done to be called a celebrity.
Staying in a house for 90 days requires no skill, training or hard work,the stupidest of men and women can do that basic task of sleeping, eating, drinking and gossiping for 90 days.
Respect to adesua, Naira Marley and Ozo for coming out with distinction in their various fields,but I totally disagree with trying to put Ozo with naira Marley in the same field.

That you don't like BBN or don't have means to watch it doesn't give you the right to tell us who a celebrity is

Celebrity ; a famous person, especially in entertainment or sport.

*Ozo appeared in Big brother Nigeria Africa's most watched and streamed entertainment show

*Ozo is a sport presenter on a couple of supersport football analysis show

Imagine at 2021 a sane person thinking they sit all day on Big brother Nigeria for 90 days and get paid... Even if you can't research what they do daily why not ask your neighbours with cable TV to understand the scope and varieties of task , military style drill, games dished out daily

Will you keep kwayet and look at the definition of a celebrity you posted,how does staying in a house for 90 days qualify as entertainment,some people stay less than 2 weeks in that GameShow or whatever it's and they are called celebrities.
It's an insult to all hardworking people in the entertainment industry,I rather prefer to call video vixens celebrities because they work their life just to feature in music videos.
I have never heard anyone call video vixens celebrities and they entertain people with their dancing.
But I will not derail the topic, congrats to all hard Working and very intelligent people,first class men and women using their skills and talents to entertain us.

Shebi it was said Naira Marley have no University education.
