Nigerian socialite, Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has alleged that singer, Davido’s losing streak at the Grammys was a deliberate attempt to frustrate and make him bend to the will of some white music executives, who want him to indulge in “demonic” activities.

Reacting via an Instagram post, Cubana Chiefpriest urged Davido to keep upholding his values and never compromise for alleged “demonic” Western music industry figures.

According to reports, the estranged husband, who is said to be based in the US, had asked to speak with their children just by her graveside.

A shouting match ensued between one of the estranged husband’s sister and the late gospel singer’s son after the aunt claimed he is a member of their family and that they love him.

In a decisive move to curb what the Anambra State Government has described as economic sabotage, Governor Chukwuma Soludo has ordered the immediate shutdown of Onitsha Main Market. It is gathered that the closure is for one week.

It was equally gathered that the closure of the market was in response to the traders’ continued compliance with the illegal Monday sit-at-home directive.

The directive, announced on Monday, follows weeks of warnings by the state government to traders, market leaders, and residents to disengage from the sit-at-home order, which officials say has no lawful backing and has continued to cripple economic activities across the state.

While the shutdown is for one week, the government is warning that if the market fails to fully reopen by next Monday, the closure will be extended to one month, a move that could have far-reaching economic consequences for traders and supply chains across the South-East and beyond.

“This is no longer about fear or compliance under duress. It is about restoring law, order, and economic sanity,” a senior government official said.

Isaac Fayose, a brother of former Ekiti State governor Ayodele Fayose, has claimed that neither the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, nor Governor Siminalayi Fubara, can secure Rivers State for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 general election without electoral manipulation.

Fayose made the claim in a video shared on his Facebook page on Saturday while commenting on the ongoing political crisis in Rivers State.

According to him, both Wike and Fubara lack the grassroots support required to win the state for the APC in a free and fair election.

Fayose further alleged that the political feud between the former governor and his successor was not in the interest of Rivers residents but was driven by a struggle for control of the state’s resources.

He claimed that Governor Fubara had accumulated significant savings, which he alleged was a major factor in the dispute between the two political leaders.

He insisted that the minister should “immediately resign” from the President Bola Tinubu administration if he cannot stop interfering in the party’s affairs.

Basiru, in a strongly worded statement issued on Monday in Abuja said his attention had been drawn to what he described as “the tirade of the Minister of the FCT against my person and my office as the National Secretary of the APC,” following his position that “all members of the NWC must accord any sitting Governor his due respect and that the Governors remain the leaders of the Party in their States.”

He expressed shock that “such an innocuous statement can elicit such uncouth responses from no less than a member of the Federal Executive Council.”

Basiru insisted that it was incompatible for Wike to remain in the cabinet of an APC-led government while allegedly causing internal disarray within the party, stating, “he cannot be in the Federal Executive Council of an APC Government and be causing confusion within any organ or structure of the Party at any level, using the leverage of that same office.”

“This is a small group of people who only control the television. The regular army is regaining control. The city and the country are completely secure,” the presidency said.

Nigerian music icon Innocent Idibia, popularly known as 2Baba or 2face, has spoken publicly about the growing tensions surrounding his marriage to Natasha, accusing members of his family of worsening the situation under the guise of trying to “save” him.

The controversy, which has dominated social media discourse in recent days, reportedly began in the United Kingdom, where Natasha was allegedly heard raising her voice during a heated argument with the singer.

The confrontation drew the attention of UK authorities and led to 2Baba’s brief arrest, according to circulating reports.

The issue escalated further during a recent Instagram Live conversation with broadcaster Daddy Freeze, where 2Baba and Natasha exchanged words openly on camera, leaving viewers alarmed at the intensity of the dispute.

The viral clips have since fuelled widespread speculation about deeper cracks within the marriage, with many fans expressing concern for the singer’s emotional and mental state.

Observers also noted a message from 2Baba’s brother, Hyacinth Idibia, which many interpreted as a signal that the family had become actively involved and increasingly worried about the unfolding crisis.

Breaking his silence, 2Baba took to social media to push back against the narrative that he needed rescuing, insisting that the actions of some family members were, in fact, causing more damage.
