Singer Bella Shmurda has justified his high performance fees, revealing that he invested $100,000 in producers, songwriters, and engineers for his upcoming album Sanity, set to be released on October 3, 2025.
In an interview on Naija FM Lagos, he spoke about the financial demands of maintaining a public image, including not repeating outfits, and criticised the high cost of promotion in the music industry, citing radio airplay fees he claimed can exceed N100 million.
“I do not repeat clothes because I am a public figure. I spent 100,000 dollars to pay producers, songwriters and engineers that worked on my album. That is why we charge a lot for shows,” Bella said during the podcast.
His remarks have triggered mixed reactions from fans and promoters. Some praised his business understanding, while others questioned whether the pricing is justified.
Popular journalist Dr Kemi Olunloyo has caused a stir online after making new claims about Nollywood actress Regina Daniels during a live session on social media.
Olunloyo alleged that she had communicated with the actress’s husband, Ned Nwoko, and suggested that what people see online is “only 10 percent” of the real situation.
“I’ve spoken to Ned today and I’m reading his chat right here. What is going on with Regina on social media is even 10% of what’s going on,” she stated during the session.
She further alleged that Regina Daniels had declined to seek professional help despite growing concerns about her health.
“She doesn’t think she has a drug problem and that’s where the problem starts. That was how it started with Whitney and many celebrities that are dead today,” Olunloyo added.
Continuing, Olunloyo claimed that the actress had been unreachable for several days. “The children can’t find her. It’s three days now, they don’t know where she is. They are with the nannies,” she said.
She went on to allege that Daniels had already lost temporary custody of her children in the United States.
According to her, “Because she has a husband and nannies, they’re probably with them. But she won’t be able to have custody of those children.”
The journalist expressed concern that the actress “could harm herself” if not found soon.
Her remarks have sparked widespread debate online, with many Nigerians urging caution and fact-checking before spreading unverified information.
As of press time, neither Regina Daniels nor her representatives have addressed Olunloyo’s allegations, and no official statement has been issued by authorities.
