I’m Mentally Stressed – Nollywood Actor, Kunle Remi Cries Out Over New Price Of Fuel (Video)

Nollywood actor Kunle Remi has voiced concerns over Nigeria’s economic situation, highlighting the impact of rising fuel prices on citizens nationwide.

The movie star in a video shared on Instagram lamented the rising cost of petrol and persistent power outages, describing the situation as increasingly unbearable for ordinary citizens.

Kunle revealed that he recently purchased fuel for over ₦1,300 per litre and questioned why Nigeria, an oil-producing nation, should be the first country affected by the war in Iran.

While expressing concern for businesses and workers struggling to survive amid high diesel and transport costs, Kunle said some of his staff are unable to resume work due to the transport cost hike.

He said, “I don’t even know how to begin this conversation. Usually, I say things like, I don’t get involved in politics. I don’t talk about politics. In fact, the country, the industry, a couple of things, make you, they’ll tell you don’t discuss religion or politics or something, and so you fall into that category where you say I don’t like to talk politics.

 

“No, that’s the most stupid statement from anybody in Nigeria right now. We should be discussing. We should be talking about it. We should be trying to fix.

 

 

“We should be inquiring about what is happening in the nation. There’s nothing like sitting on the fence. Now it doesn’t make any sense.

 

“Today, I bought fuel, petrol. I bought petrol for one thousand three hundred and something thousand naira. We don’t have light.

“I don’t understand why Nigeria is one of the first countries to be affected by the war in Iran.

“A blessed nation, a country that is a resourceful nation, is complaining about fuel price because we are dependent on one refinery, and even the refineries never got the full support of the government, and then the nation has different refineries that don’t function. I don’t understand.

“I’m blown away because I’m mentally stressed, and I can’t even lie. So you don’t have light. Diesel is expensive. Fuel is expensive. A couple of my staff are letting me understand that to even come to work now is a problem because the transport is hiking, meaning that their salary is not even enough anymore in a very short period.”

Nigerian Singer, Konga Demands 60% Of Song Earnings From Burna Boy For Sampling Him

Veteran singer Konga has claimed that he is entitled to 60 percent of the earnings from Afrobeats star Burna Boy’s hit song ‘Update’, alleging that the Grammy-winning artist sampled his work without obtaining permission.

Speaking in a recent episode of the Hits Don’t Lie podcast, Konga revealed that Burna Boy refused to reach out to him even after he called him out peacefully a few months ago.

He lamented that Burna Boy agreed to pay American singer Toni Braxton 60 per cent of the earnings from his 2022 smash hit ‘Last Last’ for sampling her song ‘He Wasn’t Man Enough’ but couldn’t do the same for him.

“If Toni Braxton is having 60% royalty of Last Last, why can’t he do the same thing to come and meet me first, talk to me?,” Konga queried.

He disclosed that he has been preventing his lawyers from taking legal action against Burna Boy because he loves his music and is proud of his contribution to the global advancement of African music.

Konga noted that Burna Boy had also previously sampled his lyrics in the remix of ‘Sungba’ with Asake.

He said since Burna Boy refused his public request for the Grammy winner to remix his evergreen hit ‘Kabakaba’ with him, he has also decided to sample Burna Boy without permission.

Na Woman Buy Am For You – Drama As Cute Abiola Tackles Actor Itele On His New Multimillion-Naira House Acquisition

Nigerian skitmaker and actor Cute Abiola has playfully taken a jab at fellow Nollywood actor Ibrahim Yekini, popularly known as Itele, over the announcement of his new home.

Earlier on Wednesday, Itele thrilled fans by revealing that he had acquired his second house in Lagos—a luxurious multimillion-naira property located in the upscale Lekki area.

The actor’s post celebrating this milestone quickly drew congratulations from fans and colleagues alike.

However, Cute Abiola didn’t miss the opportunity to inject some humor into the conversation. In the comment section of Itele’s post, the comedian jokingly dismissed the notion that the house was a direct result of Itele’s hard work.

Instead, he teased that a woman had actually bought the house for him, noting that Itele’s YouTube movie views totaled only 150 million—a figure he implied wasn’t enough to afford such a lavish property on its own.

In a humorous comment that quickly went viral, Cute Abiola wrote: “Congratulations, no be your hard work be this sha.

“Na woman buy am for you, cause I check your YouTube, na just 150 million views I dey see for there.”

Fans have since reacted with amusement, taking to social media to share their laughter at the playful exchange between the two actors.

While it was all in good fun, the comment highlights the friendly banter and camaraderie that exists within the Nollywood community, showing that even major milestones can be met with humor and lighthearted teasing.

Some Talentless Nigerian Artistes Hide Behind Afrobeats – Veteran Rapper, Ruggedman (Video)

Veteran rapper Ruggedman has criticised the tendency to group all African music into a single, catch-all genre known as Afrobeats.

Speaking in a recent interview with Day Genius, Ruggedy Baba said he had always opposed the term but was accused of being jealous of Afrobeats singers.

He argued that Afrobeats is not a genre but a “name” talentless Nigerians hide behind.

“I don’t like Afrobeats as an umbrella genre from every music coming out of Africa. That was a mistake. I didn’t liked it from the beginning but when I complained people accused me of being jealous or trying to gatekeep.

“Right now, if I go to the UK to perform, I would be tagged an Afrobeats artistes. It is wrong.

“It is the people in the UK who started this thing of tagging every African music Afrobeats. Nigerians love classicism. They just wanted to give it a name.

“For me, Afrobeats with an ‘S’ is a name talentless Nigerians hide behind. All you need to make an Afrobeats hit is just to get a good beat and a street slang and repeat it as many times as you like. Then spend a lot of money to promote it. That is the Afrobeats with an ‘S’,” he said.

The rapper also claimed that only a few Afrobeats artists can sing without autotone.

He added that that is why most Afrobeats artists shy away from freestyling and live performances with bands.

Why Most Nigerian Politicians End Up Dying Like Dogs In Foreign Hospitals – Veteran Rapper, Jesse Jagz

Jesse Jagz Abaga, the popular Nigerian singer and rapper, has voiced concerns about the growing economic hardship and rising insecurity in the country.

The ‘Bad Girl’ crooner said he can’t fathom the rationale behind the high level of corruption and maladministration among Nigeria’s political class.

He said the failure of Nigerian politicians to provide amenities, such as medical facilities to their communities, is why a lot of the same politicians end up “dying like dogs” in foreign hospitals.

On his X handle, he wrote, “Imagine getting the chance to change your people’s future, and all you do is steal the money and ship it abroad.

“I swear I don’t understand the logic of these Nigerian politicians. That’s why most of them end up dying like dogs in hospitals abroad!”

In another post, Jesse Jagz claimed that Nigerian politicians are now serving the interests of foreign governments who installed them as “puppets” instead of the Nigerian citizens.

He further alleged that the cost of living in Nigeria became worse since the administration of former United States President Barrack Obama helped the All Progressives Congress, APC, snatched power.

The rapper added, “Today’s politicians are no different from the collaborators who helped colonize us, or the ones who sold their own brothers and sisters into slavery.

“I was here, alive, watching when Obama and his crew backed Buhari — and life has only gotten worse since.”
