I Was Just Joking, I Can’t Sleep With 100 Men In 24 Hours – Mandy Kiss Makes U-turn

Nigerian content creator Ayomiposi Oluwadahunsi Adefolarin, popularly known as Mandy Kiss, has withdrawn her earlier statement in which she claimed she planned to sleep with 100 men within 24 hours.

The controversial personality in a video on her Instagram page said the announcement was only a stunt to revive her online presence.

She explained that the idea came from her desire to gain attention and attract more engagement on her social media page, which had become inactive.

According to her, the move was aimed at drawing followers and potential advertisers so she could earn money, not to actually carry out the controversial act.

Mandy Kiss said she never had plans to go through with the challenge and added that she cannot engage in such an act.

She also appealed to Nigerians not to take the announcement seriously, expressing fear of legal trouble and stating that she does not have the resources to handle a court case or legal representation.

She said: “Me I was just joking o! Arrest ke? How much is in my account? I don’t have money for a lawyer sef. I cannot even write a statement sef. Me I was just catching cruise. I was just trying to see if I was still relevant.

“Everywhere was dry on my page and I came up with the idea to see if I will get engagement on my page so I can get some adverts to do so I can make some money.

“I cannot sleep with 100 men. Please ooo, Nigerians. I don’t want to go prison o! I cannot sleep with 100 men, I will die! Please o!!!”

Why My Mother Remained Celibate For 20 Years After Divorcing Fela – Yeni Kuti Opens Up

Yeni Kuti, the Nigerian dancer and singer, has shared insights into the personal life of her late mother, Remilekun Anikulapo-Kuti, who was formerly married to Afrobeat legend Fela Kuti.

Speaking during a live programme on TVC, Yeni explained that her mother chose not to remarry or pursue another relationship after her union with Fela ended.

She said Remilekun lived celibately for more than twenty years until her passing in 2002.

According to Yeni, Remilekun’s decision was rooted in her deep affection for Fela, even after leaving his home in 1981.

During that time, she reportedly faced health challenges, including a battle with cancer, yet still held onto her devotion to the music legend.

She said: “We have to break it down into parts; firstly, sex is very important in marriage, secondly, celibacy is a matter of choice.

“My mummy moved out of my father’s house in 1981, and she died in 2002. From 1981 till she died, she never met another man; she was celibate during that period. I knew, but I could never understand.

“She got cancer in between and she went for a check up, when the doctor asked why she isn’t using it, that it’s closing up, she said, ‘Fela is the only man for me.”

BBNaija 10: Why I Never Got Along With Isabella – Thelma Lawson

Evicted Big Brother Naija Season 10 housemate, Thelma Lawson has opened up on why she failed to get along with fellow contestant Isabella.
She spoke following her shock eviction last Saturday night alongside Bright Morgan.
In her post-show interview, she stated that the misunderstanding stemmed from her closeness with Kayinkunmi, a housemate she already knew before the competition.
According to her, Isabella mistook her bond with Kayinkunmi for something romantic and began to view her as a threat.
“It’s unfortunate that Isabella and I never really became friends. I genuinely looked forward to connecting with her because she is a mother to a 14 year old son.
“I wanted to learn life from her perspective. But things changed because Kayinkunmi who is my friend outside the house was also in the game,” Thelma explained.
Thelma stated that the tension worsened after she picked Kayinkunmi as her deputy during her tenure as Head of House.
She added that Isabella’s reaction immediately after her deputy choice signaled the strain in their relationship.
 
“Her reaction that night showed me she had taken it too far. I felt it wasn’t the right moment for a conversation,” she said.
Thelma clarified that she deliberately kept the depth of her pre-existing friendship with Kayinkunmi private, insisting it was unnecessary to announce it to everyone.
“Kayinkunmi is my friend and that was why I chose him as deputy. I didn’t want anyone using us for highlights that’s why I only explained to those who directly asked me.
 
“Unfortunately by the time Isabella realized there was nothing between us, the damage had already been done,” she said.
The reality star concluded that while she had hoped for a genuine friendship with Isabella, the misunderstanding created a rift that was never repaired during their time in the house.

Kizz Daniel Breaks Silence Following Reports That a Court Ordered The Freezing of His Bank Accounts

Nigerian singer, Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, popularly known as Kizz Daniel has reacted to claims that a court ordered the freezing of his personal and business accounts over a contract dispute.
It was alleged that the Buga hitmaker was directed to pay €200,000 in damages for failing to honour a show despite receiving a $50,000 advance payment, and that his accounts with Access Bank were frozen by court order.
Reacting in a statement on on Thursday, September 25, 2025, Kizz Daniel’s team described the report as false, misleading, and a deliberate attempt to tarnish the artist’s reputation.
 
“Kizz Daniel has no such case in court, and no accounts have been frozen. We urge fans, partners, and the general public to disregard this fabricated story,” the statement partly read.
The singer’s team vowed to take legal action against those behind the fake report, emphasising that the artist remains focused on his music and upcoming shows.
The team noted that this isn’t the first time the singer has been the target of false rumours, but his management insists such distractions will not deter him from delivering quality music to his fans worldwide.
They recalled that the promoter of Afrobeats Meets Berlin 2022 actively used Kizz Daniel’s name, image, and likeness, along with those of other artists, to sell tickets and build hype for a festival that ultimately never happened.
The statement added that Kizz Daniel was ready to perform, but the promoter “failed to uphold his own obligations.”

Being Humble As An Artiste Is Usually Mistaken For Weakness – Asake

Popular Nigerian singer Asake has opened up on why it is not a good idea for artists to be humble.
According to him, being humble is usually taken as weakness.
Asake stated this in a viral video on Tiktok.
In the video, he told his friend that in the industry, being humble is usually seen as a weakness, while showing ego tends to make artists appear more attractive to fans.
The singer stressed that people do not pay much attention to the process behind an artiste’s work, instead, they are more concerned with the results that come out of it.
According to him, taking time to explain or show people how things are done is often not valued, as most audiences only respect the finished product.
He said: “As an artiste, if you’re humble, they take you for granted. But if you have ego they feel like you’re not accessible then they like you more. People would rather see what you’re doing than showing them. They don’t really appreciate it. Do what you need to do and just go.”
