Davido took to social media to slam Kemi Olunloyo after she claimed the singer is still trying to recover after Chioma broke up with him.

With regards to Davido, I feel that he’s not a child. He’s a grown adult. He has a lot of children, he built a house he has a career in music, and I feel that if Davido know what journalists do, he won’t threaten journalists. He’s threatened one, he’s had one beaten before and it’s been episode with journalists back and forth.

He doesn’t want journalist to pry into his life. If you are a musician, journalist make your music famous, and you fall around music, news, entertainment news and celebrity news, so we are not just only interested in your music, we are interested in your life. We are interested in the fact that you got Corona virus, or you got sick, or you lost your father or mother or you marry somebody or have a baby mama. These are parts of news.

So for him not to be able to apologise to me, I don’t want to carry it on my head so far, because he has sent some very prominent people to me. There has been comment from Tiwa Savage, there has been comment from Sam Klef, D’Banj, name it. And everybody just told the same thing. And one musician actually told me, out of all these three or four I just mentioned, I won’t say which one, that the devil made him do it. And that he’s scared to come and apologise to me.

That musician told me Aunty, just let it go. It’s a year that’s bad. 2020 is a year when plenty people are dying everywhere. Apology from Davido is not a priority, just leave him and let him do his thing. And like I said my father also got involved because Deji went to my dad, or call my dad or something. The culture of apologising to people is very bad in Nigeria.

I grew up in the United States. You don’t have to apologise to people through a third party. You come and say sorry. And this is where I like certain people in the society. Like Erica; the girl in BBNaija. Erica came out and said sorry, to all the ones she offended and Laycon, but at the end of the day. It’s a culture in Nigeria. Start apologising if you have a problem with someone.

I know somebosy who knows Davido personally, who said he wants to end the whole thing. He wants to organise it in a restaurant, and all of us will meet and he will prostrate for me and all…it’s okay. I’m gonna let Davido go, if I have to do anything with his life, I’ll be talking about his music, and anything happening extra-curricular. I’m still a reporter, I’m still a journalist, and I’m still writing entertainment news.

EndSARS: Protesters In New York Want SARS Operatives Sacked

 Hundreds of young anti-SARS protesters on Sunday stormed the Nigeria House in New York demanding transparency in the disbandment of the police unit back home. The protesters said operatives of the Special Anti-Robbery Squad found wanting should be sacked and not redeployed. Among them was Stephen “Papi” Ojo, the artist, model, and choreographer who stole the show as the ‘blue-guy’ in Beyoncé’s “Already” music video. The protest started shortly after the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, announced the dissolution of the Federal Special Anti-Robbery Squad. Adamu also announced plans for a new arrangement to address anticipated policing gaps following the disbandment, and the constitution of an investigative team to probe the alleged cases of rights violations, among others. But the protesters, who bore placards with different inscriptions including, “We no want audio ban”, said they were not buying it. They argued that previous commitments announced by the force to change...

Open grazing ban in South irreversible, Akeredolu replies Malami

  The Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, has tackled the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr Shehu Malami, for faulting the ban placed on open grazing in the Southern part of the country. The Southern Governors had at a meeting in Asaba last week banned open grazing and asked the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), to address the nation over the increasing rate of insecurity in the country. However, Malami who appeared as a guest on Channels Television on Wednesday faulted the ban, arguing that the governor had no right to do that. Akeredolu, who is the Chairman of Southern Governors’ Forum, spoke in a statement he personally signed on Thursday, titled, ‘ Our decision is irreversible and will be enforced ’. He asked the AGF to challenge the governor’s position on open grazing in court, adding that Malami’s comments were “ unfortunate and wicked ”. Part of the statement read, “I have just read the press statement credited to the Attorney...

Biden Announces Purchase Of 200M Vaccine Doses

  President Joe Biden announced a series of measures on Tuesday aimed at ramping up coronavirus vaccine allocation and distribution, including the purchase of 200 million more vaccine doses and increased distribution to states by millions of doses next week. With those additional doses, Biden said there would be enough to fully vaccinate 300 million Americans -- nearly the entire US population -- by the end of summer or early fall. He described efforts to combat Covid-19 as a "wartime undertaking." We now have a national strategy to beat Covid-19. It's comprehensive. It's based on science, not politics. It's based on truth, not denial, and it is detailed," he said. As part of the new efforts announced Tuesday, the US will buy 100 million more doses from Pfizer/BioNTech and 100 million more from Moderna -- the two-dose vaccines that have been granted emergency use authorization by the US Food and Drug Administration. Pfizer and Moderna are working to step up p...
