‘I Am Done With Disgrace And Drama’ – Tonto Dikeh Declares

Nigerian actress cum politician, Tonto Dikeh,has declared her decision to choose peace and self-love over chaos and conflict.

626Blaze reports that in a post on her Instagram page, the former Rivers State deputy governorship candidate reflected on her journey after spending four decades on earth.

The mother of one shared that she now walks with a deep sense of spiritual awareness, rooted in her faith and guided by what she described as divine support.

She wrote: “After four decades on this earth, I have made a conscious, unwavering choice: peace over disgrace. I walk in perfect rhythm with **El-Roi-the God who sees me**the One who fights my battles in silence and secures my victories in full view. Truth needs no defense; in His time, it shall be revealed, not by my hand, but by His divine orchestration. I do not wrestle with mortals. My legacy is already speaking, and my seed shall echo my strength long after I am gone. To those awaiting my fall into chaos, you clearly do not know WHO I AM….NOR WHOSE I AM.. You do not know the joy I carry, a joy that is divine, untouchable, and irrevocable.

“No man born of a woman can strip me of it. I stand rooted, healed, and dangerously in love with myself. In this sacred space of self-love, I am both my sanctuary and my fire. ##excuse me to say FUCK THE DEVIL #ADAELROI She who is seen, shielded, and unstoppable.”

A Week of Fights, Flops, and Fake Nominations Breakdown of the Chaos That Rocked the BBNaija 10/10 House This Week

The Big Brother Naija Season 10 “10/10 House” has already proven to be an explosive season, with a week full of drama, tears, and failed teamwork. From the very beginning, the housemates failed to find their footing as a team, leading to several clashes and a major flop during their first Wager Task.

The drama started with a dispute between Koyin and Kaybobo over noodles, with Koyin ending up in tears. This was followed by Kaybobo being accused of being a “bully” by Mensan, which led to a heated confrontation. Tensions continued to simmer in the kitchen with what has been dubbed “MeatGate,” a fight between Otega and Denari over grilled chicken. Leadership also proved to be a source of conflict, with Head of House Jason Jae getting into a shouting match with Rooboy, who felt Jason wasn’t leading effectively.

In an interesting turn of events, some housemates started to explore romantic connections. Jason Jae was seen sharing a heartfelt hug with Sultana, while Gigi Jasmine confided in Victory. The first Saturday night party also brought some action, with Kayikunmi and Isabella sharing a steamy makeout session. However, not all connections were successful, as Imisi’s attempt to kiss Faith was gracefully rejected.

Despite all the drama, the biggest shock of the week was the housemates’ complete failure to win their first Wager Task. The performance was a mess, and Biggie’s disappointment was clear. This loss means a week of limited food supplies and heightened tensions, setting the stage for more drama to come. The week ended with the housemates on edge, as host Ebuka revealed a major twist.

In a recent interview with Okay Africa, the award-winning singer reflected on the driving force behind his artistry.

Davido noted that beyond the glitz and fame, it is his love for music that keeps him grounded and motivated to create, innovate, and connect with fans globally. He also spoke about the priceless connection he shares with his supporters, which he said is one of the most meaningful aspects of his journey.

“I hope I still have the same passion, I’d probably try again…but it depends on my age,” he said.

He added, “One flex I have is that money didn’t buy is natural love from my fans. You can’t buy that type of love. I’ve had fans come from far away, and concerts range from new fans to the old fans; my catalogue is huge.”

Looking back on his career, Davido shared advice he would give to his younger self: “It’s going to be a long journey, many ups and downs, smiles and frowns, but you’d get there.”

He also noted that when he started, his dreams were nowhere near as big as what he has achieved today. “That’s how God works,” he said.

Burna Boy Nigeria’s biggest artist, says Clarence Peters

Music video director Clarence Peters has crowned Burna Boy the biggest Nigerian artist.

In a recent episode of the Afropolitan podcast, Peters attributes Burna Boy’s success to his passion for performing on stage and his understanding of what it takes to excel in the entertainment industry.

Peters noted that Burna Boy’s ability to surround himself with technically sound professionals has been key to his success.

According to him, the combination of his charisma and stage presence, has cemented his position as a leading figure in the Nigerian music scene.

Peters stated that having star power is essential for artists to succeed in the entertainment industry, drawing comparison between the music and film industries, noting that while talent is important, it’s the personality and charisma of an artist that sets them apart and makes them a star.

He said: “The performances on stage, how you’re able to hold your brand. Look, Burna Boy is the biggest Nigerian artist, hands down, because Burna Boy loves being on stage, but also understands what he needs to be on stage. He’s become technically sound because he’s been garnished with people who are technically sound, because that’s important to him.

“There’s a difference between an amazing actor and a star. The truth is, if you’re looking for amazing performances, go to the theater, go to stage. That’s not what you’re supposed to see.

“That’s not, I mean, you would get good performances, but the personality and the charisma of the actor the star power of the actor is what you go to the cinema to go see on your streaming services. So America has an issue with that. The almighty America has an issue with that too. There’s not a lot of stars. So Netflix is having it here and there because they’re not a lot of stars”.

BBNaija 10: Thelma Emerges Head Of House For Week 2

Thelma Lawson has emerged the interim Head of House for the second week in the ongoing Big Brother Naija Season 10.

The announcement came after a competitive HoH game that took place shortly after the live show.

Big Brother invited all the housemates to the arena, where they were grouped by gender and given a water-filling challenge.

Thelma emerged as the top female performer, while Jason Jae won in the male category.

The two winners faced off in a final round, which involved carefully placing eggs on a deck using only a spoon.

Thelma completed the task faster than Jason, earning her the Head of House title.

She later picked Kayikunmi to join her in the HoH lounge.

However, her victory comes with a condition.

A new twist in the game means that Thelma must defend her title in a special challenge on Monday.

If another housemate performs better, she could lose the position.

BBNaija Season 10 began on July 28 with a two-day launch.

The winner of this season will walk away with a cash prize of N150 million, the highest reward since the reality show began in 2006.

In other news, all 29 housemates in the Big Brother Naija Season 10 show were thrown into celebration mood on Sunday evening after learning that no one would be evicted in the first week.

626Blaze reports that the twist was revealed during the first Sunday Live Show by host Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, who informed the contestants that they would all remain in the house for now.

The housemates, who had been tense throughout the week, immediately relaxed and hugged each other in joy.

“I’m a very wise woman, I know when to fight” — Iyabo Ojo slams Verydarkman

Actress Iyabo Ojo has responded fiercely to claims made by social media activist Verydarkman, who alleged she backed out of an agreement to publicly apologise to Naira Marley and Sam Larry.

Her rebuttal comes hours after Verydarkman shared details of a roundtable discussion at the Nigeria Police Force National Cybercrime Centre (NPF NCCC) held with Naira Marley, Sam Larry, Iyabo Ojo, Tonto Dikeh, and their legal teams, claiming Iyabo had promised to apologise publicly for accusing Naira Marley and Sam Larry of involvement in Mohbad’s death but later reneged.

In a new live TikTok session, Iyabo dismissed Verydarkman’s narrative as manipulative and dishonest, calling him “corny” and “deceitful.”

“So you had to come out and do your normal manipulating tactic. I’m a very wise woman. I’m not like you that’s very deceitful and corny. You’ve tried in all your might to bring me down, but you cannot,”she said.

Iyabo defended her actions, stating she had genuine reasons to speak out at the time. She explained that her reaction was driven by disturbing videos and online reports that emerged after Mohbad died in 2023.

“I used to promote Naira Marley’s songs until Mohbad died. I saw a video of Naira Marley dancing after Mohbad’s death, I was angry,” she stated.

She went further to describe seeing videos of Sam Larry allegedly mocking the late singer and others showing physical assault, which she said compelled her to believe the bullying accusations.

“I saw Sam Larry’s video where he accosted Zlatan Ibile and Mohbad; that was when I believed the bullying allegation. As a concerned citizen and a mother, I used my platforms,” she explained.
