Autopsy Rules Out Food Poisoning In De@th Of Nollywood Crew Members At Movie Location In Lekki

Preliminary autopsy findings for the two crew members discovered de@d at a movie production site in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos, have ruled out food poisoning as the cause of de@th.

The autopsy, it was gathered, revealed that one of the deceased, Walter Odediran, 36, who was a cinematographer, did not have any food in his stomach, while his childhood friend, Godstime Imeh, a Lighting Director and Chief Officer of GeeTee Light, had only a small amount.

Recall that on February 7, 2026, the lifeless bodies of the duo were discovered inside a Nissan car owned by Imeh, parked within the premises of Evercare Hospital, where a movie was being filmed.

Sources said pathologists, who conducted the autopsy found little or no food in the victims’ stomachs.

“In one case, the stomach was empty, while the other contained only a small amount of food. It was almost as if he hadn’t eaten anything,” a source said, per Vanguard.

To determine the exact cause of d£ath, additional tests on blood and tissue samples, as gathered, would be conducted to ascertain whether the victims ingested or inhaled any harmful substances prior to their d£aths.

Confirming this, Walter Odediran’s elder brother, Kola Odediran, said the preliminary autopsy results were delivered to the family, yesterday, Feb. 18.

He said: “The autopsy itself is complete, and no food was found in my late  brother. The results indicate he did not eat anything. But they are going to carry out toxicology and histology tests, which will provide the definitive answers we are looking for.”

The results of these additional tests are expected to take between two and three weeks.

Relatives of the deceased expressed hope that the upcoming tests would shed light on the mysterious circumstances surrounding the tragic incident.

Nigerian Actress, Georgina Ibeh Recounts Ordeal After Recovering Hacked YouTube Channel (Video)

Nollywood actress Georgina Ibeh has shared her experience after hackers took over her YouTube channel, leading to its temporary suspension.

In a video posted on her Instagram page, Ibeh said she received an email from YouTube on February 9 notifying her that her channel had been taken down.

The actress, owner of Georgina Ibeh TV on YouTube, described the development as distressing but said she deliberately chose to remain calm and prayerful.

She explained that after days of seeking direction, she felt led to check the channel again. On doing so, she discovered that it had been restored but had been taken over by unknown individuals who were using the platform to promote political content.

Ibeh later received another email from YouTube confirming that full control of the channel had been returned to her.

Reflecting on the incident, she said her composure during the crisis stemmed from a lesson she learned three years ago on the need to stay calm in chaotic situations.

She wrote, “My YouTube channel got hacked on the 9th of February at 1:22 pm. I am Georgina Ibeh, and I am the owner of Georgina Ibeh TV on YouTube.

“On the 9th of February, at 1:23 am, I was nursing my baby to sleep, and I got an email. I opened it, and it says, ‘We have removed your channel from YouTube ‘

“I asked myself, “What did I press?” Or what did I do? I thought it was one of those spam messages or scammers. Apparently, someone hacked into my YouTube account and used it on Live. The person removed my name and replaced it with ‘Fox Live’. I didn’t know what to do; I wanted to panic, but I told myself to calm down.

“I just told God to help me because I didn’t know what to say. One spirit just told me to go check my YouTube channel. I quickly went to YouTube, dialled up my channel, and it popped up. The scammer used my channel to upload political content. Yesterday, my YouTube manager said we’ve gotten our channel, but we need YouTube to authorise us. We waited, and I got an email saying my channel has been recovered. Just say congratulations”.

“MY TESTIMONY. In the midst of chaos, I always try to stay calm. Learnt that 3 years ago. Please help me say, “Congratulations & Thank you, Jesus.”

I Can Take A Bullet For Churchill – Nollywood Actress, Rosy Meurer Declares (Video)

Nollywood actress Rosy Meurer has professed her deep devotion to her husband, Olakunle Churchill, saying she would take a bullet for him.

In an interview with Daddy Freeze, the Gambia-born actress shared that she loves Churchill deeply and feels secure in their marriage.

According to her, he has stood by her side over the years and has never abandoned or betrayed her.

She explained that their relationship has not been marked by serious conflict or physical fights, adding that he has consistently shown up for her and their family.

Rosy stated that beyond being the father of her children, she was already deeply in love with him before they started a family together.

She described her feelings at the time as intense, saying her attachment to him was so strong that people around her often noticed it.

She also addressed claims that she places her husband above everyone else.

The actress made it clear that while some people believe she “worships” him, she simply loves him because he treats her well.

The mother of two said she values care and affection over material gifts, explaining that kind words and small gestures mean more to her than expensive presents.

She said: “Oh, yes, and we love each other. Yes, me, I love Churchill. I love Churchill because I can take a bullet for him. At least he has proven to me he’s been by my side all this while. He has never abandoned me in any way. He has always come through for me. He’s the father of my kids. He has not betrayed me. He has not offended me. We have not fought to an extent where we are throwing blows or anything. So why won’t I take a bullet for the father of my kids?

“Before I even started having kids with him, I was very in love with him. Madly in love. It got to a point that you can’t even tell me at home what to do. Once Churchill comes, when Churchill says something, it’s final. I don’t care what anyone says. They will still tell me, ‘When it is Churchill, you worship him.’ I don’t worship him, I just love him.

“He treats me well. You would love who treats you well. Me, I don’t demand much. If you just show me small love like this, that’s it. It doesn’t even have to do with money. You don’t even have to buy me gifts. Just sweet talk me, tell me sweet things, you have got me, and that’s just it. If you add gifts, it’s bonus. But I will never complain that this person didn’t buy for me or that my eyes are outside. And he knows this about me.”

BBNaija Star, Neo Akpofure Reacts To R@pe Allegation, Threatens Legal Action

Neo Akpofure, the Nigerian reality TV star, has officially called for a public apology and retraction following allegations of s*xual assault circulating on social media.

Akpofure’s lawyers from E.L. Akpofure, San & Co. sent a legal notice to an 𝕏 (formerly Twitter) user, Ms. Arikan Udoka, who had posted allegations against him.

The post claimed that the alleged incident occurred while both were students at the University of Calabar (UNICAL) and described the encounter as non-consensual.

 

She also claimed they had previously been involved in casual s*xual relations.

 

His legal team denied the allegations, calling them false and damaging to Akpofure’s reputation.

They argued that the allegations portray him as a s*xual offender and have caused public shame and emotional harm.

The notice instructed Udoka to remove the post and any related content, issue a public retraction, and apologize for the statements.

It also requests a written promise not to make further defamatory statements.

The lawyers warned that if these demands are not met within 48 hours, legal action, including a civil suit for defamation under Nigerian law, will be pursued.

The notice read in part: “Your allegation is entirely false, malicious and defamatory to say the least.

“It portrays our Client as a s*xual offender and a criminal, thereby subjecting him to public odium, reputational injury, emotional distress, and severe personal and professional damage.”

I Was So Young And Innocent Then – Rosy Meurer Reacts After Netizens Dug Up Old Video Of Her Calling Tonto Dikeh Her ‘Family’

Rosy Meurer, the Nollywood actress, has responded to the resurfaced video showing her referring to Tonto Dikeh as her family.

Recall that Tonto Dikeh was married to Olakunle Churchill who is now Rosy’s husband.

Earlier, 626Blaze reported that Rosy had posted a video on her Instagram page, claiming she didn’t know Tonto at all and that she had never met the actress while Tonto was married to Churchill.

Rosy said she never had any feelings for Churchill at the time and that Churchill was like a brother to her and was helping her and her family before they got married.

Following this, social media users dug up an old video of Rosy calling Tonto’s family and saying she had hung out with the actress.

Now reacting to this, Rosy, in her Instagram story, claimed she was young and innocent and being dragged into something that didn’t concern her, hence the video. Now that she is older and wiser, she is speaking her real truth.

Rosy made it clear that no one can intimidate her and reemphasised that she knew about the reunion and reconciliation before it hit the internet, and that she has been 100 per cent in support.

“You want me to hang on to the nonsense old video I made years ago, where I explained all sorts of things due to the fact that I was so young and innocent.

The whole media thing was new to me, how I got dragged in wetin no concern me then, something I saw and was as lost as everyone else.

My husband, who was like a brother to me then, had to apologise to my family because he knew I knew absolutely nothing about what was said.

I was dragged into violence by force. With all the pressure, the PR team will make you say so many things, then, if you don’t feel it’s right.

Right now, whatever I say is THE REAL TRUTH.

I am older, I am wiser, and no one can intimidate me.

No PR team can force me to say what they believe will be better than my truth.

No one can control what I will say.

It is my life, and I know better than anyone else.

I’m not here to sweet-talk anyone or make anyone like me.

If you like, bring out videos of 1000 years ago where I said this or that, it doesn’t change my reality.

I knew my husband before he got married.

Why I no follow at that time.

So I waited for him to marry before he entered my eyes.

If you don’t know a story, shhhh”.
