    A video has surfaced online in which Omashola Oburoh, ex Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) housemate, could be seen wearing a tattered outfit.

    In the now-viral video, which was first shared by Ike Onyeama, another former BBNaija housemate, Omashola is seen shabby and in the appearance of an insane person while sitting on the pavement of a yet-to-be-identified street.

    The entertainer also appears like one who is displaced as he holds a black nylon bag beside him.

    I hope this is some sort of skit or movie @sholzy23 After seeing your last post, should I be worried? You haven’t been active on social media since your last post…call me!,” Ike wrote on Instagram.

    In the same vein, popular social media comedian Lekan Kingkong noted that he called Omashola but the latter didn’t pick his call.

    Lekan wrote on his Instagram page:”Thanks to everyone that called and sent a message to me to check on @Omashola. He is yet to answer my calls and I drove to his place to check him but he wasn’t there.I will let you know soon as I hear from him.Thank you all”

    Omashola was one of the finalists of BBNaija season four. During his stint in the 2019 BBNaija show, he won the hearts of fans with his street-smartness and hyper-activeness.

    Social media, Africa Magic cancelled me-Ike Onyema

    Ex- Big Brother Naija housemate Ike Onyema has accused Africa Magic of cancelling him.

    The reality star made the accusation in an Instagram post on Wednesday.

    According to him, the organisation cancelled him because he refused to accede to their will.

    “Social medial has tried to cancel me so many times since BBN. Africa Magic cancelled me because I refused to kiss a$$ now but I’m happy now to share the music I have been working on for so long.

    “I haven’t been back home in over 3 years chasing this dream praying to become a success and I refuse to give up. Guys don’t let this one flop honestly if this music doesn’t work out it’s back to the streets,” he wrote.

    TheNewsGuru recalls that in an interview, Ike recently spoke on why his relationship with Mercy Eke crashed.

    In an interview with Vanguard TV, he noted that he had been in a couple of relationships but his relationship with Mercy was not appealing as millions of people had opinions about them.

    “I’ve been in a couple of relationships, but this one (with Mercy) wasn’t it; having a relationship where people have a million opinions just isn’t it

    “I will like to date a lady that is intelligent, pretty much independent and not so freaked about social media. I believe social media brings a lot of negative vibes from people when it comes to relationships,” he said.

  • BBNaija S2 winner, Efe, debunks rumours of being blacklisted by show organisers

    BBNaija S2 winner, Efe, debunks rumours of being blacklisted by show organisers

    Big Brother Naija Season two winner, Michael Ejeba better known as Efe Money has denied claims that he was boycotted by the show’s organisers, Multichoice Nigeria, after winning the competition.

    During the show’s Season Six finale which took place a few weeks ago, several ex-housemates of the show were present, while some like Laycon, Season five winner, had performances. However, the 2017 winner who doubles as a rapper was conspicuously absent.

    Media personality, Noble Igwe said in a tweet, that Efe had fallen out of grace with the show organisers because he had insulted a Multichoice boss. According to him, Efe “sat in the car and asked for Oga to come first before he comes out.”

    Responding to the claim, the rapper released a statement via his Instagram page on Monday to debunk the rumours as regards his absence from the BBNaija events.

    In the release, Efe stated that the said incident was false and never happened.

    “I was brought up in a family and society where respect to a fellow human is highly valued and respect to elders is unquestionable. Unnecessary ego-boosting, protocols, or feeling too much importance have never been attractive to me given my humble background.

    “Therefore it is unimaginable for someone to conceive such character from me as a person and create a scenario that never existed. Hence I am clearly stating that the instance (scenario) asserted that is making rounds in the media and public is false and never happened or occurred. This is news to me as it is to you,” he wrote.

    The rapper also maintained that he has “a cordial relationship with Multichoice Nigeria and we are one family.”

    “Let me take this opportunity to thank Multichoice Nigeria as an organisation, and her members of staff once again for giving me the platform to showcase my talent as a music artist,” he said. “I don’t take the platform for granted. It is a well-cherished investment.”
