Actor Damola Olatunji condemns OPM pastor’s ‘paid husband’ plan for autistic adopted daughter

Actor Damola Olatunji has condemned Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere’s move to marry off his 21-year-old autistic adopted daughter by offering incentives to any man willing to wed her. The Omega Power Ministry (OPM) founder recently announced on Facebook that he was seeking a husband for his daughter and promised financial support and housing to whoever agreed to marry her. Reacting in a statement, Olatunji said the situation “has crossed a line and must be addressed seriously,” questioning whether the young woman could genuinely give full, informed consent to marriage. He argued that instead of trying to arrange a marriage, Apostle Chibuzor should prioritise establishing a proper care home and support system to cater for her needs. “The key question to ask is: would this person genuinely choose to get married at 21 under normal circumstances, free from any external influence? If […]

Female circumcision best thing that happened to me – Actress Victoria Inyama

Actress Victoria Inyama has said that undergoing female circumcision was “the best thing” that happened to her, claiming it gives her a strong sense of control in her relationships. Speaking during an Instagram Live session with media personality Daddy Freeze, she revealed she was circumcised while growing up with her grandmother in the village. Inyama said the procedure gives her “power” over men and helps her set firm boundaries around intimacy. She argued that it is one reason no one can accuse her of being found in compromising situations. The actress insisted that her grandmother made the right decision, saying it has become a key source of her personal strength. “Yes, I was circumcised. Because I grew up in the village with my grandmother, and that is what is helping me. That’s the best thing they did for me,” she […]

Liverpool’s Ekitike set to miss World Cup after injury blow

Liverpool striker Hugo Ekitike is set to miss the 2026 World Cup and the remainder of the season after suffering a severe Achilles tendon rupture during Tuesday’s Champions League defeat to Paris Saint-Germain. The 23-year-old French forward sustained the injury midway through the first half at Anfield when he planted his right foot to accelerate and immediately crumpled to the turf, clutching his lower leg. Reports indicate an expected recovery period of around nine months, ruling him out of France’s World Cup campaign and a significant part of next season. Ekitike, a £69 million summer signing, had to be stretchered off as visibly concerned teammates gathered around him. Liverpool manager Arne Slot admitted after the match that the injury “looks really bad” but said a full prognosis would only be possible after further medical assessments. “Hugo looks really bad, but […]

UCL: Lookman’s strike seals Atlético semi-final spot over Barcelona

Nigeria international Ademola Lookman scored the decisive goal that sent Atlético Madrid into the UEFA Champions League semi-finals at the expense of Barcelona. Despite losing 2–1 on the night at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano, Diego Simeone’s side advanced 3–2 on aggregate thanks to their 2–0 first-leg victory at Camp Nou. Barcelona made a fast start in the second leg, with Lamine Yamal opening the scoring in the fourth minute before Ferran Torres struck soon after to level the tie on aggregate and put pressure on Atlético. However, moments after play resumed following an injury to Fermín López, Atlético hit back on the counter, and Lookman calmly finished a low cross from Marcos Llorente in the 31st minute to restore the Spaniards’ aggregate lead. In the second half, Barcelona piled on the pressure in search of more goals, but Atlético’s defence […]

Refereeing v Atletico ‘a robbery’ – Barca’s Raphinha

Barcelona forward Raphinha has branded the refereeing in their Champions League quarter-final defeat to Atletico Madrid “a robbery.” Barca exited 3–2 on aggregate despite a 2–1 win in Tuesday’s second leg, having lost the first leg 2–0 at home. In both matches a Barcelona defender was sent off after a yellow card was upgraded to red when the referee, on VAR advice, reviewed a potential denial of a goalscoring opportunity on the pitchside monitor. Pau Cubarsi was dismissed by Istvan Kovacs in the first leg, while fellow defender Eric Garcia was sent off by French referee Clement Turpin in the second. Kovacs and video assistant referee Christian Dingert were also criticised by Barcelona after they allowed play to continue when Atletico defender Marc Pubill handled the ball in his own penalty area from what appeared to be a goal-kick situation.

An old social media post by former Osun State governor Rauf Aregbesola praising President Bola Tinubu’s leadership has resurfaced online following his recent description of the current administration as a “government of scammers.” The 2017 tweet, now widely shared on X, showed Aregbesola crediting Tinubu for shaping his political career, saying: “Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s leadership and the opportunity to work with him to take Lagos forward was a huge factor in making me who I am today.” The renewed attention came after Aregbesola, now national secretary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), criticised the Tinubu administration while addressing delegates at the party’s national convention.
