I Converted From Christianity to Islam in Search of Truth – Burna Boy

Grammy-winning Nigerian singer, Damini Ogulu aka Burna Boy revealed that after converting from Christianity to Islam, he has not found the truth he is seeking for.
He stated this while discussing religion.
Speaking in a recent interview with streamer Playboymax, Burna Boy explained that the more he researches religious books with the aim of finding meanings, the more confused he becomes.
“Growing up, I was a Christian and then I converted to Islam. It’s like I’ve studied it all, but I’m still out here trying to find out what is really going on, you know? The more I research, the more confused I get,” he said.
Burna Boy added that his spiritual exploration is still on as well as his search for personal truth.
Recall that another Nigerian singer, 9ice a few months ago, also shed light on his spiritual journey, revealing that he converted to Ifa religion after suffering a “spiritual attack” that left him bedridden for six months.
9ice in the viral interview with Nancy Isime, stated that he wished he started practicing Ifa religion earlier.

I Oppose Any Foreign Military Aggression Against Nigeria – Shehu Sani

Former senator Shehu Sani has said he’s not in support of any foreign military action in Nigeria.
He was reacting after US President Donald Trump threatened military action over targetted k!lling of Christians by Islamic terrorists.
Sani posted a response on his X page, saying Nigeria will never be a disgraced country.
“Some day we will all be gone. The future generations, including our children and grandchildren will read about all that we posted and ask questions about where we stood on the urgent and controversial matters in this moment of our lifetime,” he wrote.
He made clear he wants history to show his opposition to any outside military attack.
“I want history to record me among those who outrightly opposed, rejected and unreservedly condemned any act of Mr Trump’s foreign military aggression against my country under any guise, disguise or excuse,” Sani said.
Sani argued that calling Nigeria disgraced is wrong, saying people proud of their homeland would not accept that label.
“My country is not a disgraced country and will never be a disgraced country,” he wrote.
He also urged the US to reflect on its own history.
“We are not a nation that has ever colonised, enslaved or invaded any country or countries and dropped bombs and killed millions of people and plunder their resources. Without such record against other countries, we can’t be called disgraced,” Sani added.
Acknowledging Nigeria’s security problems over the last 15 years, Sani welcomed any help that genuinely supports Nigerian forces to defeat terrorists.
He also called on the Nigerian government to do more to protect citizens and secure the country.
 
“Lastly, I wish to call on the government of my country to step up efforts to protect the lives of our people and secure our country, which is the only country we can live without a visa or request for a visa. As a democrat, I respect but will never share the opinion of those who think otherwise, and want history to register them as supporters of foreign aggression. Thank you.”

I Can Afford to Buy a Private Jet But I Have More Important Things to Take Care Of — Don Jazzy

Nigerian music executive and Mavin Records boss, Don Jazzy has opened up that he has the money to acquire a private jet.

However, he will not buy any jet because he has more important use for his money than a private jet.

The producer also revealed that the same reason he doesn’t splurge on other luxury items like exotic cars.

Speaking during an interview with Habby FX, Don Jazzy said he has been financially capable for years to afford any kind of car or even a private jet, but he prefers to focus on more important things — like investments and helping people around him.
 
“I’ve been blessed enough for a long time to be able to afford any type of car I want or even buy a private jet,” he said. “But I have more important things to take care of. Nothing beats investment.”
He explained that there are different forms of investment, including self-development, and revealed that he’s currently learning forex trading as part of his personal growth.
 
“The forex that I’m learning now is an investment in myself,” he said. “Tomorrow, it’s going to turn into something — a skill I can use. Don’t just be useless. Go and acquire some skill.”
The Mavin boss further encouraged young people to embrace skill acquisition rather than chasing only white-collar jobs, especially in today’s digital and AI-driven world.
“You don’t have to be a doctor, lawyer, or engineer,” he said. “In this internet and AI age, a lot of jobs will disappear. Why not learn something tangible? Even carpentry or furniture making — we still import tables and chairs from Turkey and China. If we had skilled people here, we could produce those things ourselves.”
