I think I heard her shouting "chief oo" in the viral video. E be like say the bae na runz girl oo. But the treatment was dehumanizing. There are other more civil ways this could have been handled instead of dragging her off the aircraft like that.
Veteran Nigerian singer, songwriter, and activist, Charles Oputa, widely known as Charly Boy, has once again opened up about the unconventional path his life has taken.
In an exclusive interview with Jay On-Air TV, the iconic entertainer reflected on his life’s voyage, describing it as one that has been unapologetically fearless and true to his ideals. Charly Boy, renowned for his eccentric lifestyle and bold persona, noted that while many people saw him as rebellious, he simply lived according to his own truth.
Speaking candidly, the 73-year-old performer revealed that his first son is now 53 years old, and that he has fathered 10 children with different women. According to him, these aspects of his personal life do not represent regret or recklessness, but rather a testament to a life fully lived.
“The greatest job I have had on this earth was taking good care of my parents,” Charly Boy stated with pride. “Maybe some people will argue that I was making restitution for all my stubbornness. My first son is 53 years old. I have 10 children and different baby mamas. I have rocked my life.”
Despite the unconventional nature of his choices, Charly Boy insists he has no regrets. In fact, he views his life as a rich tapestry woven with experiences — from entertainment to activism — that have shaped him into the man he is today.
Known for constantly challenging societal norms, Charly Boy remains one of Nigeria’s most enigmatic public figures.
Joy Bishara, one of the 276 schoolgirls abducted by Boko Haram from Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok, Borno State, in April 2014, has rebuilt her life in the United States.
Bishara, who escaped by jumping from a moving truck with her cousin, Lydia Pogu, said the decision to leap was inspired by divine guidance.
She relocated to the U.S. in August 2014 with support from Jubilee Campaign, a nonprofit organisation.
She completed her high school education at Canyonville Academy in Oregon before gaining admission to Southeastern University in Lakeland, Florida.
In April 2021, she graduated with a degree in social work, while Pogu earned a degree in legal studies.
Bishara announced her engagement to her American partner, James, in July 2023. Reports later confirmed that the two have since married.
Nearly a decade after the attack, Bishara has continued to speak out for her abducted classmates.
About 82 of the 276 girls remain missing, including Leah Sharibu, who was kidnapped in a separate attack in 2018.
Rajinder555: I was really surprised to get your call, especially after all this time. Honestly, I’ve moved on, and I thought you had too since you’re married now. I don’t think it’s right for you—or for me—to be having these kinds of conversations, especially knowing your current situation. I respect your marriage, and I don’t want to be part of anything that could create problems or regrets later. Please understand that it’s best we keep our distance. I wish you all the best.
and you think the woman no go get her own convincing lines. Dey play
The President of the Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, has announced that Nigerians will soon have the opportunity to own shares in his $20 billion refinery upon listing on the Nigerian Exchange Limited.
He disclosed this at a conference in Abuja organised by the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority and S&P Global Insights.
Dangote declared his firm’s readiness to partner with African governments, private investors, and other institutions.
He added that the continent, Africa, should refine all petroleum products it consumes.
“Very soon, the refinery will be listed to give all Nigerians the opportunity to become shareholders.
“We’re open to partnerships with African governments, private investors, and regional institutions. Our vision is simple but ambitious.
“Africa should refine all the petroleum products it consumes right here on the soil of Africa,” he stated.
The refinery announced two fuel price reductions in the last two months.
Last month, the refinery said that it would kick off petrol and diesel distribution directly to consumers from August 15, 2025.

Then on a serious note, Life is just like a football match.
In the first half, both teams come into the game with a game plan they’ve practice: formations, strategies, key players. They play with the strength of their preparation, trying to dominate, score goals, and control the match.
But at halftime, regardless of whether they are leading, trailing, or it's a draw, both teams return to the dressing room. That’s where reflection happens. Coaches analyze the first half; what worked, what didn’t, who underperformed, where the opponents exploited their weaknesses. They restrategize. Sometimes a losing team comes out in the second half with fresh fire and completely turns the game around.
That’s exactly how life is at 40.
Your first half (youth) may not have gone according to plan; mistakes, failures, missed opportunities. but halftime (age 40) is a gift to pause, reflect, and rework your strategy. It’s not the end of the game. In fact, many great goals are scored in the second half. Champions are often made after halftime adjustments.
At 40, a man should not sit back in regret. Instead, he should see it as the second half of his life’s game; time to replan, reinvent, and relaunch. The match is far from over. Many people didn’t even score in the first half but came out blazing in the second.
Hope is not lost. The final whistle is not yet blown. There’s still time to turn the game of life around.
Just like football, it’s the full 90 minutes (and sometimes extra time) that decides the winner, not just the first half.
A woman identified as Benita Lurk Ikuenobe has been found dead in a suspected case of suicide inside the auditorium of the Mountain of Fire and Miracles (MFM) Prayer City.
Naija News understands that the 41-year-old woman allegedly committed suicide at the Prayer City camp located along the Lagos-Ibadan expressway.
According to Zagazola Makama, the incident occurred on Friday morning and was brought to attention by the Chief Security Officer of the church, Esiere Ekikere.
EKikere said he received a distress call from the church auditorium at about 7:20 a.m., notifying him that an unidentified woman was lying motionless on the floor.
Upon arriving at the scene, he found the woman unresponsive, with an empty bottle of suspected poisonous substance, identified as “Sniper,” lying beside her.
Police operatives visited the scene to take photographs for documentation, and the body was later moved to the Real Divine Hospital morgue for autopsy.
Efforts are ongoing to determine the circumstances that led to the incident, as those familiar with the deceased are being approached to provide more information
