The singer revealed that he received several threats after his ex-Ghanaian girlfriend, actress Yvonne Nelson alleged that his infidelity was the reason for their break up.

In a recent interview with GHOne TV, Iyanya said he received threats and also lost almost 10,000 Ghanaian followers because of Yvonne’s allegations.

He said, “When Yvonne [Nelson] said I broke her heart, I was in my room and I just saw a post, ‘Iyanya cheated on me.’

“I remember that day, I was looking at my Twitter, I lost almost 10,000 Ghanaian followers. And I was getting threats and all of that.”

Iyanya said the tweet he made that he was going to tell his side of the story on what led to their break up was just a momentary outburst.

Blackface has accused Grammy award-winning artist Wizkid and music executive Banky W of theft of intellectual property.

In 2016, Blackface accused Banky W and Wizkid of stealing his song titled ‘I Like The Way’ in making ‘Slow Whine’ and also accused them of sampling his song titled ‘Twist and Turn’ for ‘Ginger’, one of the tracks from Wizkid’s popular album ‘Made In Lagos’.

Speaking in an interview with  The Whistlers on Wednesday, Blackface disclosed he is yet to hear from Banky W and Wizkid since the issue popped up in 2016. He further added that Wizkid has been avoiding Nigeria in order not to get served with a lawsuit.

He said: “I called them (Wizkid and Banky W) out for sampling my song ‘I Like The way’ which they changed to Slow Whine without my permission.

“From that time, they have not reached out to me till today, in fact, I think that is the reason why Wizkid is not staying in Nigeria, he knows he will get served, so they are running up and down from Ghana to Benin Republic to Togo, nobody can find them yet, but once we see them and find out where we can reach them, we will serve them.”

Banky W Requests Money To Carry Out Election.

Olubankole Wellington, also known as Banky W, is a prominent Nigerian singer who is raising money to run for politics in Lagos. 

In the PDP House of Representatives primary held in June for the Eti-Osa federal constituency in Lagos State, Banky W was declared the winner.

On Monday afternoon, Banky W asked for donations on his official social media accounts while enlisting the help of his followers to win the seat in 2023. 

He stated: “If Impact is truly the goal, then we must no longer be content to shout from the sidelines; we must get into the system and fix it.”

Further aiding his request for public support, the singer highlighted that mainstream Nigerian politics is a complex and expensive venture.

He invited readers to view his post as an invitation to travel in cooperation with him. 

In April, he gave an explanation of his motivation for running for office saying: “The Nigerian people need candidates who will earn and treasure their right to serve. And as a nation, we need innovation and reform.”
