Date night - Naturi Naughton & Two Lewis for #Boyisminetour

There’s a quiet kind of magic when a concert tour becomes more than a show and a celebrity’s night out becomes part of a larger rhythm — like when Naturi Naughton and her husband Two Lewis stepped out together during Brandy & Monica’s The Boy Is Mine tour, a tour that’s been stitching old R&B memories into new ones across cities from Cincinnati to Miami. 

What makes it intriguing isn’t just that familiar names walked into an arena; it’s how moments like these signal that nostalgia and now can coexist and even shape how we feel about legacy and love in the public eye. The tour itself — a celebration of one of the most iconic R&B duets of the ’90s that defined friendship, rivalry, and unity — has become a stage for layers of presence: fans reliving childhood playlists, icons like Brandy and Monica reinterpreting their own stories, and peers like Naturi showing up like a soft acknowledgement that culture isn’t just inherited — it’s carried forward by those who witnessed it as fans, creators, and participants in life, not just spectators of sound. 

So when public emotions meet personal expressions — laughter in the crowd, a couple’s date night captured in flashes — it begs a thought: are we celebrating the moment, or are we celebrating the meaning we make from it? 

 

Singer Jaywon Gets Honest With Women Who Marry For Money And Become Second Wives

Iledare Oluwajuwonlo, a Nigerian musician better known by his stage name Jaywon, has warned women who marry wealthy men purely for financial gain to be ready for the "consequences of their action."

The "This Year" crooner recently addressed the growing trend of young women taking on second or third wives solely for financial gain or comfort in a post that generated a lot of online discussion.

Jaywon warned that although marrying into a wealthy family may initially seem desirable, these relationships can involve difficulties, sacrifices, and unspoken suffering.

He noted that relationships founded on greed or convenience rarely bring long-term happiness.

“Don’t act surprised when the consequences arrive,” he said, adding that genuine peace and fulfillment cannot be bought with money.

Jaywon emphasized that love built on money lacks stability, urging women to choose partners based on shared values and respect rather than material advantage. He wrote:

“Do what you want. Marry for money. Be a second wife. Stay with an abuser. It’s your life. But don’t act surprised when the consequences arrive. Choices have cost and you will be responsible for yours.”

The single father continued his message by telling young women that hard work and self-worth are ultimately more fulfilling than marriage as a way to achieve financial independence.

He pointed out that relying on a partner for luxury or social standing frequently results in remorse and emotional dependence.

Both fans and critics were moved by the singer's remarks, and many praised his candor. His message, according to others, is a much-needed reality check for today's youth, who frequently use social media interactions as standards for success and happiness.

Actress Regina Daniel and her husband, Senator Ned Nwoko, were going through a marital crisis when he uploaded the tweet.

her confidence fades, and her laughter - Betty Irabor Shares Encounter With Groom Who Belittled His Bride On Their Wedding Day

Betty Irabor, publisher of Genevieve magazine, described how she and her husband, Soni Irabor, intervened when something happened at a wedding.

The mother of two told the tale to uplift and remind us that everyone "blooms and ages differently."

She described how the groom told the bride that although Mrs. Irabor is older than his wife, who is younger, she appears younger.

She claimed that the wife's mood was instantly impacted by the remark, and her husband, Soni, had to rebuke the groom while attempting to lift the bride's spirits.

She wrote:

“WE BLOOM DIFFERENTLY AND AGE DIFFERENTLY

Some time ago, my husband and I attended a wedding. As we made our way into the reception hall, we spotted a middle age couple taking photos at the Photo Booth.

They seem quite happy. The husband turned out to be my husband’s old classmate, and we were all smiles as we exchanged warm greetings and handshakes.

Everything was light and joyful—until the man turned to his wife and said with a laugh, ‘Guess Auntie Betty’s age? She’s over 60—ten years older than you! See her and see yourself!’

A loud silence followed, and then an uneasy stillness. The poor woman’s smile faded instantly. You could almost feel the air change.

Sensing her discomfort, Soni casually took his friend aside and had a quiet word with him about how not to talk to or about your partner—privately or in public—while I made small talk to ease her unease.

Listen! Putting your partner down, whether publicly or privately, is a form of emotional abuse. It chips away at her self-esteem, layer by layer.

Comparing her to others is unkind—because we all bloom differently, age differently, and carry our responsibilities differently. The wear and tear of life shows up uniquely on each of us.

There are always better ways to speak to your wife—ways that uplift rather than diminish. A woman who has to endure constant criticism and comparison from her husband soon loses her light.

With time, her confidence fades, and her laughter becomes guarded.”

‘I Could Have Died In June’ – Adesua Etomi Shares Horrific Ordeal That Led To An Unplanned Surgery

Adesua Etomi-Wellington, a Nollywood actress, talked about a near-death experience that left her shaken but incredibly grateful for her life.

 The mother of two disclosed that she experienced a terrifying medical emergency while in the UK with her husband, Banky W, and their sons in an emotional Instagram post.

 She claims that the unanticipated operation that resulted from the June incident may have been fatal.  She penned:

“I could have lost my life in June of this year. I went through a horrific incident that landed me in unplanned surgery. The surgery was ironically the least dramatic part of what I went through.”

The "Shuga Rush" star who relocated to the UK with her family a few years ago, explained that she was in the UK for two speaking engagements when the ordeal began. Looking back, she said she believes divine intervention was the only reason she survived.

“If even one single detail had been different, I wouldn’t be here today. When I think about it, I shudder,”

she admitted.

The "Knocking On Heaven's Door" actress said the experience renewed her faith and deepened her sense of gratitude, describing it as both terrifying and transformative.

“Like a map, I can literally look back over that day and trace how His hands were all over that situation. There’s nothing anyone can tell me — God is real,”

she declared.

Reflecting on what she called a second chance at life, Adesua urged her followers to live intentionally and with compassion.

“Let’s choose to be softer, kinder, gentler, forgiving, patient, loving, and peaceful,” she wrote. “I’ll never take another day for granted — neither should you.”

Adesua opens about her personal struggles, had earlier this year shared how she battled hyperemesis during pregnancy, supported her husband through surgery for a cancerous tumor, and underwent an emergency C-section in 2024.

Despite her challenges, she said she remains thankful, using her story to inspire others to hold on to faith and hope.

M.I Abaga Shares On Why He Would Prefer To Raise His Kids In Nigeria

 

M.I Abaga has shared why he would prefer to raise his future children in Nigeria rather than in the United States.

Speaking in a recent interview, Abaga expressed a strong preference for Nigeria due to its rich communal values and family-oriented environment.

The music star revealed that Nigeria’s strong sense of family and community support makes parenting easier compared to the more individualistic lifestyle in the U.S.

M.I said:

“There are a lot of things appealing about home, especially because we’re already ingrained in that system and because there’s a lot of support as well. I feel it’s very difficult for parents here.”

The 44-year-old who is happily married and based in abroad, contrasted this with the situation in the United States, where relatives are often occupied with demanding work schedules, leaving little time to offer hands-on support.

He explained that in Nigeria, it is easier to get help from extended family members, neighbours, or friends when raising children, unlike in the U.S. where parents often have to handle everything on their own.

Although he and his wife, Eniola Mafe, currently live in the United States, MI said they still value the closeness and family bond that Nigeria offers.

While acknowledging the appeal of life abroad, the rapper highlighted Nigeria’s nurturing environment as vital for a child’s early development.

He suggested a balanced approach, where children could grow up in Nigeria to establish cultural roots before moving abroad later in life for broader exposure.

“Our family over here are all professionals. Sometimes you just find your nook in Nigeria. I think we’ve sort of found a space in Nigeria, but definitely, you want your kids to have a mixture of both,”

he said.

Although he noted that he was not yet making concrete family plans, Abaga said he leaned toward Nigeria because of its unique advantages in fostering a supportive and culturally grounded upbringing.

The rapper added that he would love for his future children to spend their early years in Nigeria before possibly moving abroad later in life.

According to M.I,

“This is a good question. Yeah, actually a really good question. There are a lot of things appealing about home, especially because we’re already ingrained in that system, because there’s a lot of support as well. I feel it’s very difficult for parents here.

But you know, if you have family, that’s, you know, I mean, that every Okay, now you have enough people that can stay at home and support you. But it’s not easy, man. Yeah.

And our family over here, they’re all like professionals. You know, there are some times when you just find your nook in Nigeria. I think we sort of found a space in Nigeria, but definitely, you want your kids to have a mixture of both.

“You know, so maybe it’s a thing like early years there and then at a certain point, you know, move, but look at me making family decisions. I think Nigeria. There are some good things about Nigeria that may be early days here”.

MI Abaga and Eniola Mafe got married in September 2022, a few months after announcing their engagement.

Seyi Shay Opens Up On How Motherhood And 4-Year Solitude Reshaped Her Spirituality And View About Men

 

Seyi Shay has opened up on why she chose to stay out of the public eye for over four years.

Speaking in a recent interview with media person, Chude Jideonwo, the music star explained that her period of isolation was a time for deep reflection, healing, and spiritual growth.

She further explained that the decision to step away helped her reset her mindset and find clarity about her life, relationships, and purpose.

In her words:

“I have done so much work over these past four years. The transformation of my mind started before I had my child. I started a journey of isolation. There is something really good about isolation… I could just reflect and was also blessed with insight which in turn gave me foresight.”

Seyi, who welcomed her daughter during her time away, added that motherhood and solitude reshaped her spirituality and her view of men. She added:

“My spirituality has also transformed, and I am vibrating on such a different level now that I actually feel very comfortable with men. I love all the men. It’s a man’s world.”

The singer also addressed questions about her relationship with her daughter’s father, saying they share a healthy bond even though they’re not married.

“It’s a technical issue, you understand? But he’s great, he’s cool, he’s around. He’s Nigerian, he’s in the UK at the moment, and he’s also in the music industry on the corporate side of things. We just work together, raising our child, and we are great friends,”

she explained.

‘I’d Rather Be Co-wife Than Sidechic’ – Actress Lolo 1

 

Omotunde Adebowale, often known as Lolo 1, is a Nollywood actress and radio host who has endorsed polygamy.

In a recent podcast with fellow actress Bimbo Akintola, Lolo stated that she would prefer to be in a polygamous marriage than put up with a partner who had extramarital affairs.

Honesty and justice should always be the cornerstones of partnerships, according to the single mother of four.

“I would rather a man be polygamous than for him to be married and have a side-chick. That’s the one I would not contend with,” the actress said.

The actress argued that while polygamy may not be ideal, it offers more transparency and a fairer structure for co-wives compared to what she described as “side-chick culture.” She added:

“At least in polygamy, the co-wives know where they stand. There’s fairness to an extent. But when a man hides behind one wife and keeps another relationship secretly, it becomes deceitful.”

Her colleague, Bimbo Akintola, who was also part of the discussion, attributed the rise of infidelity to social conditioning that pressures men to marry women who fit the image of “wife material” rather than those they genuinely love.

“This ‘side-chick culture’ began when men were told to marry the so-called wife material instead of the women they truly loved,”

Akintola said, stressing that honesty and transparency remain key ingredients in healthy relationships.

Nigerian Mother, 60, Shares The ‘Crazy’ Things She Has Come To Accept About Men And Relationships After Her Divorce | Do You Agree With Her

  Doyinsola A. Ilori, has shared some of her realizations about men and relationships after her divorce.

Looking back, Ms. Doyinnsola claims to have realized that no man is exclusively a woman's property and that most men are self-centered and frequently put their own happiness ahead of their families and kids.

She remembered the year she made the decision to end her marriage because of ongoing arguments and adultery, but she was forced to abandon her intentions and continue in a loveless relationship in order to protect her female children.

But when her husband made the decision to end their marriage, he didn't think about how it would impact their kids.

 

She claims that she advised him to think about how the divorce would impact their kids. He just told their kids that his happiness was more significant than theirs and turned to go.

She even went so far as to advise unmarried women.

Below is her full post…

“After my divorce, I came to accept some krazi things concerning relationships, men and all. No man is exclusively any woman’s. Hear me out. I don’t say this strictly in terms of marriages and affairs. I say it based on what I have learned about men.

Majorly, they are selfish. Most men think of the self first. What satiates him. What he wants. And that’s it.

Very rarely does the man think about how his action or decision will affect the family, that is, his wife and children. If you have a man who puts you and the children first, glaringly worship the ground he walks on please.

Years before my ex finally left, we were just too much at loggerheads. I saw clearly he found joy frolicking, and didn’t understand why I was not enough.

So decided I was going to leave him. I called my very young children then and told them my decision. The two girls bust into tears, they didn’t want me to. I was so moved by their reaction that day, that I jettisoned my plans. And decided to be in the loveless relationship to keep them sane.

You know the funny thing, I don’t recollect this story, the girls reminded me. They actually apologized for keeping me in the situation, because they said, if they knew he’d eventually make himself priority over everyone, they’d have let me go ahead then.

When he decided to leave, even when I told him to think about the effect on the children, he told them, his joy mattered the more, and he left.

When any woman accepts this simple fact, that the man is temporarily mine, maybe when he is with me, or in me, and worry less about when he is not, and find joy in other things, just maybe we’d will be able to keep our sanity in better check. I’m at that point now. Even though feminists will likely tag me, low esteemed woman.

When a woman thinks he’s mine, only mine, all mine, I have to be his aàyò forever, the average wondering man will give such a woman high blood pressure.

This is where a supposed more mature mother helps to stabilize her child in matrimony, irrespective of the mans age. Her experience comes to play to guide and guard her daughter selflessly in her union.

Every time any woman have involved me in their frustrations in matrimony and have towed the line mapped out for them, they have come back to give testimonials.

(Please do not ask to spill on me for advice or anything, these things I do FOC, people collect money for on this same app. I’m not asking to be paid, I just don’t want to be bothered. I have enough on my plate.)

Don’t think you can change anyone in matrimony. No one changes afterwards. If the indices don’t look right during courtship, call the wedding off if you’ve picked a date. A canceled wedding is better than a bad marriage.

That said, I was not 100percent blameless in my failed marriage. I made mistakes too. The good thing about that is that I can use my experience to guide my children better.

P.S I’M NOT SAYING EVERYONE SHOULD AGREE WITH ME 100 PERCENT ON MY POSTS, NO.”

 

‘I Was Scared And Wasn’t Prepared’ -Rapper, Zlatan Ibile Spills On How Fatherhood Changed Him

 

Omoniyi Temidayo Raphael, known professionally as Zlatan Ibile has confessed that fatherhood transformed him.

This is as the music star opened up that he became a parent at 25.

Speaking during a recent "Is This A Safe Space? The musician said on his podcast that he reassessed his life and made some changes after having his son five years ago.

The single father claims that the birth of his son also had an effect on his finances, acknowledging that at one point he was worried about his ability to pay for the child's upbringing in London.

In his words:

“The birth of my son changed me. It made me realise that life was getting more serious. I wasn’t prepared. I started paying house rent in London at 25.

I was scared I might not be able to keep up with the bills because some people were saying I might not be relevant in the music industry for more than three years.

I became more serious with managing my finances. Limited spending and started saving for diapers.”

Zlatan added that he regretted some of his previous actions after welcoming his son, stressing that his birth refrained him from some habits.

Seun Kuti Shares One Parenting Tip Most Parents Don’t Know

A humorous parenting tip that most parents are unaware of was provided by Seun Kuti.

The father of two girls revealed that he enjoys stressing out his daughter Adara, who turned eleven a few days ago, in a recent YouTube conversation with NotJustOk Originals.

Seun, the youngest son of renowned Afrobeat godfather Fela Anikulapo Kuti, says he likes it.

Seun went on to say that most parents are unaware that their children stress them out since they don't worry themselves first.

Seun disclosed that he prefers to spend time with his family at home since he can "stress" his daughter there, preventing her from stressing him.

“Most parents don’t know that why your kids stress you is because you don’t stress them first. Let me give you parenting tips now, these children think that because they are small, they don’t have sense, so they can stress you.

‘You’re just a baby’ quickly reverse it. Be the stress in your child’s life. That’s my most fun thing to do – to just be at home, stress her so she has no time to stress me.”

He added that when he’s not at home, performing on stage gives him a similar sense of control and fulfillment. He said:

“Other than that, I love being on stage. The stage is also like a place I have full control where I’m also stressing a bunch of people. I take it from the house to the stage. So yeah, that’s me – stresser”

‘If You Take It Once, Be Ready To Take It For The Rest Of Your Life’ – Ngozi Nwosu Opens Up On Surviving Domestic Violence

 

Ngozi Nwosu, a seasoned Nollywood actress, talked about how she survived domestic abuse in her previous marriage and disclosed that she was physically abused even while she was pregnant.

Speaking on the podcast Real Life Matters With Aunty Ayo, which is hosted by actress Ayo Adesanya, Nwosu urged women to put their safety before social expectations and stated that she does not see marriage as a "do-or-die affair."

She said:

“I don’t believe marriage is a do-or-die affair. There’s this notion I want to correct people go on social media to post pictures saying, ‘He slapped me, he did this, he did that.’

When you see real beating, correct pummeling, you won’t even remember social media. You’ll forget about it and start struggling for your life.”

The movie star explained that she silently endured abuse in her marriage and chose not to make her struggles public at the time.

“I have not told people until now the kind of domestic violence I went through in marriage. Even when the press came after me, I told them I didn’t want to wash my dirty linen in public. It was well while it lasted, but I don’t want to talk about it.”

Reflecting on her experience, Nwosu revealed that she had initially decided to walk away from her marriage because of abuse but was persuaded to stay by her sister.

She continued:

“He beat me even in pregnancy, and I said this marriage is a no-no for me. My senior sister knelt down and begged me, saying he was sorry and asking what the world would say.

I agreed, but once beaten will always be beaten. If you take it once, you must be ready to take it for the rest of your life.”

She also expressed sympathy for women in similar situations, referencing the late gospel singer Osinachi Nwachukwu, whose tragic death was linked to domestic violence.

“When this thing is too much, you have to move. It’s your life we are talking about here, not that person’s life,”

she added.

‘Be Cautious Of Favorite Uncles, Favorite Aunties, Favorite Nannies And Drivers’ - Kaffy Speaks To Parents

Celebrity dancer Kaffy has given parents a crucial lesson about protecting kids and establishing limits, particularly when it comes to dependable people in the house.

The mother of two recommended parents to set clear boundaries and teach their kids about proper physical contact and personal space in an Instagram video.

The dance queen claims that many families are still unaware that dangerous circumstances involving children frequently originate from people they know and trust, not from complete strangers.

 

She asked parents to teach their kids that it's acceptable to say "no" to unwanted touch or interactions, regardless of the adult's identity, and cautioned against placing undue trust in familiar figures like "favorite uncles" or "favorite aunties."

She said:

“Parents need to be cautious of the favorite uncles, the favorite aunties, the favorite nannies, the favorite drivers. There needs to be boundaries. Many children face uncomfortable situations from people who are close to them.”

Kaffy further explained that in many African homes, people are encouraged to be overly familiar with children, without considering how it may affect the child’s sense of personal space.

The dance choreographer revealed that she experienced inappropriate behaviour from a trusted family friend when she was younger.

She shared that when she was younger, someone close to her family crossed personal boundaries with her, and although she didn’t fully understand it at the time, she knew it didn’t feel right.

In her words:

“It happened right in front of people who trusted the person. At that age, I didn’t understand what was going on. But I knew something about it was wrong.”

Kaffy pointed out that people who harm children don’t always appear suspicious. She continued:

“Many of them appear caring. They may be the ones who always want to help or be around the child. That’s why parents need to pay attention and set clear boundaries.”

She also spoke against adults making unnecessary comments about children’s b0dies or giving physical affection without consent. She said:

“Some compliments are unnecessary. Some physical touch is unnecessary. Even if the person is a family member. A child is a child. Respect their space.”

Kaffy asked parents and guardians to teach children that they are allowed to say ‘no’ when they feel uncomfortable — regardless of who the adult is.

She concluded by saying she would continue the conversation in her upcoming session, encouraging parents to learn how to recognize early signs and create safe emotional environments for their children.

‘I’m Scared Of Marriage’ – Don Jazzy Opens Up In New Chat

 

Michael Collins Ajereh, better known as Don Jazzy, the head of Mavin Records, has shared his thoughts on marriage, love, and religion. Despite his success, he still has concerns about commitment and relationships.

The music producer discusses his fear of marriage in an interview with Habby Forex, stating that one of his main concerns is the financial risk associated with divorce.

He acknowledged that he is terrified of losing half of his hard-earned fortune in a divorce settlement. According to him:

“You will see someone that has worked all his life and now has to split his money because of divorce. I’m actually scared of those things. The money I have is for my generation.”

Don Jazzy explained that his fears are based on real-life stories of men who lost significant assets after separation, especially those without prenuptial agreements.

He also revealed that while he has dated in the past, he’s currently single and waiting for the right person.

“I’ve actually dated before. Currently, I’m single. I’m scared, though God’s time is the best. I just want the right person, even though I’m not sure if I’m the right person for somebody’s daughter,”

he added.

‘When You Marry A Delta Man And You Want To Leave, Make A Plan’ – Nigerian Mum Shares Her Experience With Her Ex-husband

 

Before divorcing their husbands, women married to Delta males should have a backup plan, according to Tracy Mcwary, a Nigerian woman.

In a Facebook post on Monday, November 10, 2025, the mother of one shared the advice while describing how her ex-husband attempted to prevent her from ending the marriage.

Tracy claims that on the day she decided to leave him, her ex-husband, who wasn't home, told the security guard to close the gate and then used the tracker he had put on her car to lock it.

She added that she got in touch with a Deputy Commissioner of Police, who put her in touch with an Area Commander, who sent police officers to the residence.

When her ex-husband came and saw her brothers, their friends, and the police officers, he quickly pursued them.

Read her full story below…

“I was married to a Delta man from Delta North Senatorial District, and I must say, it wasn’t easy leaving him.

The day I decided to pack out, he instructed the security man to lock the gate and then locked my car using the tracker he had installed. I had to call my brothers, one of whom was in the military and he arrived with his friends.

I also contacted a Deputy Commissioner of Police, who connected me to the Area Commander, and he immediately dispatched his men to my ex-husband’s house.

When my ex-husband started driving back to stop me from leaving, he met men on the ground, the police officers, my brothers and their friends. He fled, and they followed him, but he managed to escape.

I was able to pack out safely and later called a towing van that took my vehicle to the Gwarinpa Police Station for safekeeping. Afterwards, I came back, removed the tracker, and took my car.

When you marry a Delta man, and you want to leave, make a plan. Don’t just leave—PLAN!.”

Solomon Buchi Blames Regina Daniel’s Mum, Rita For Her Marital Crisis

Solomon Buchi, a writer, has attributed Regina Daniels' marriage problems with legislator Ned Nwoko to her mother, Rita Daniels.

The father said that Rita had let her daughter down in a post on his Facebook site.

He continued by saying that it is absurd for Rita to let her 17-year-old daughter to marry a man who is old enough to be her grandfather.

He claims that Rita gave Regina's hand in marriage to Ned even though Regina's father was against the union at the time.

In order for him and Regina to part ways amicably, he believed that Rita and her family needed to swallow their pride and apologize to Ned in order to resolve the current marriage issue.

Below is what he wrote:

“I don’t mean to absolve Regina Daniels of any responsibility, but if we are being brutally honest, her mother failed her.

Consenting to your 19-year-old daughter marrying a man old enough to be her grandfather as a third wife is just ridiculous. Regina was just a child. She may have  ben exuberant and driven by material things, but she was just a teenager.

Her mother should get the bulk of the blame especially because Regina’s father warned her. She should swallow the drop of what’s left of her pride and mobilize her children to apologise to the old man, so they can peacefully part ways because it’s already embarrassing enough.

May God give children wise parents.”

‘I Regret Getting Married Late’ – MI Abaga, 43, Candidly Shares In New Interview

MI Abaga has talked candidly about his path to marriage and the inner challenges he had while observing his friends get married young.

The 43-year-old celebrity, who married his partner at age 41, said on the Jay On Air Podcast that by the time he was 37, he started to feel regret because many of his colleagues who were married in their twenties were now parenting teens or sending their children off to college.

 

 

In his words:

“I felt a little bad about being unmarried when I was 37 because my friend who got married at 25, 26 now have 14 year old children.

I have friends who have kids who are going off to college now and some of them who didn’t marry had kids early. Jesse has a 21 year old child and I don’t have any kids of my own yet so you miss out on some of that.”

However, from his current perspective, Abaga expressed that he has no regrets. Just a year after ending a previous relationship, he met his wife. He continued:

“I have no complaints because I got the opportunity to meet this beautiful woman who I’m married to now and I really see some Providence In that. At the end of the day, when you’re not ready you’re not ready. Everybody’s timeline is different and this is something that is often overlooked in today’s society.”

He further elaborated on his timeline, stating,

“I left a relationship around age 39 and met my wife around 40. She was there at my 40th birthday, and at that point, I was ready, so I asked her to marry me, and we got married when I was 41.”

Reflecting on past relationships, MI confessed to having been emotionally unprepared and stubborn, acknowledging the women in his life who had treated him with love and kindness.

“I have sadness when I think about how I was in my former relationships. I met a lot of kind women in my life who were supportive to me. I just wasn’t mature and I was stubborn,”

he said.

‘Don’t Wait Like I Did’ – Omotola Jalade Counsels As She Shares Experience Of Life-threatening Surgery

Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde, a seasoned Nollywood actress, urged people to take their health more seriously by sharing the story of her recent life-threatening operation.

The thespian, in an interview with PUNCHng, said the surgery may not seem life-threatening to some people, but it was the most serious medical challenge she had ever faced.

The mother of four who is now based abroad with her entire family explained that her body finally broke down after months of extreme work stress.

The veteran claimed that she was scared after being taken to the emergency room multiple times before medical professionals determined that she required emergency surgery.

Omotola claims that after finding a scar on her stomach, the physicians informed her that her gallbladder was too large for keyhole surgery.

The actress stated that she chose to make her tale public in order to inspire others to put their health first.

She said,

“For some people, it might not seem like a life-threatening surgery, but for me, it was. I had never faced anything of that severity before and had been rushed to the emergency department multiple times.

“I had been working non-stop, editing my movies Mother’s Love and RR across two continents, barely sleeping two hours a day. My body was overworked.

Eventually, I was rushed to the hospital after several visits and told I needed immediate surgery. It was shocking and terrifying. My husband wasn’t around, and my kids were scared.

After the surgery, I discovered a scar on my stomach. The surgeon explained that my gallbladder was too enlarged to be removed through keyhole surgery. It was a lot to process.

I tell people now, if you ever feel sharp pains in your chest or back, get a CT scan or MRI immediately. Don’t wait like I did.”
