The ‘Shake Body’ crooner acknowledged the support of God despite the setbacks from those he trusted. Reflecting on the challenges he has faced, Skales shared that he had learned the importance of prayer and faith. He quoted the best advice his late mother gave him, stating, “One day I’ll sit down and tell you a story of how a lot of people turned their backs on me, including people I helped build up in this industry. But guess what? God never failed me even when I was isolated… Don’t you ever stop praying and trusting God with everything you’ve got… Best advice my mom gave me!!!”

In addition to his comments on betrayal, Skales recently called for the dissolution of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) following widespread criticism of the agency. Many Nigerians have condemned the EFCC for allegedly raiding citizens’ homes in the early hours, accusing them of internet fraud. Skales himself recounted an incident in which EFCC officials allegedly raided his home, claiming they targeted his property because of the luxury cars parked there.

The singer’s statements shed light on his frustrations with both personal relationships and controversial practices within the country, continuing to make headlines with his bold opinions.

Content creator and streamer Carter Efe has spoken about his relationship with Afrobeats superstar Wizkid.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

In an interview with BBC, Efe said he deeply admires the singer but feels their connection has not been mutual.

Naija News reports that he noted he respects Wizkid’s music, creativity, style, and overall sound, describing him as a major influence on his craft.

However, Carter Efe said his main concern lies with Wizkid’s personality, insisting that while he has shown love and support to the singer, he has not received the same level of acknowledgment in return.

He said: “My relationship with him? I love Wizkid. I won’t lie. I love Wizkid. I love his craft, man. But I have issues with his personality. I showed that guy love, he didn’t show me love. But I still love his music and style.”

His comments come amid renewed discussions about his viral 2022 song “Machala,” which was dedicated to Wizkid.

Efe had previously explained that the track was created out of genuine admiration for the singer and was not initially driven by financial or fame considerations.

Despite the song’s massive popularity, Wizkid has not publicly acknowledged Carter Efe or the track in any official capacity.

“Anthony Joshua Sets Sights On Explosive 2026 World Title Comeback, Fury Showdown”.

Published

Promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed that Anthony Joshua is determined to reclaim the world heavyweight title and finally secure a blockbuster showdown with Tyson Fury in 2026.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

Joshua is currently working his way back after a difficult period that saw him suffer defeat to Daniel Dubois and survive a serious car accident in Nigeria. Speaking to BoxingScene, Hearn said the former two-time heavyweight champion has returned to camp with fresh motivation and clear goals.

According to reports, Joshua is scheduled to face Kristian Prenga in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on July 25, with a highly anticipated clash against Tyson Fury potentially lined up later in the year.

Hearn said Joshua’s ultimate ambition remains regaining his place at the top of the heavyweight division.

“His endgame is to win the world heavyweight championship again,” Hearn stated.

He explained that Joshua’s immediate focus is on overcoming the challenges directly ahead, starting with Prenga before any mega-fight plans can fully materialise.

“But definitely there are a couple of things that he wants to do. He wants to beat Tyson Fury and he wants to win the world heavyweight championship again. So our plan right now is the plan that we can see that’s in front of us, which is Prenga and Tyson Fury.

“We’ve got to win those two fights. If he wins those two fights, he can walk into any fight, any championship that he wants. But we’ve got to win those fights,” Hearn said.

The promoter added that Joshua has shown impressive hunger and dedication in training camp, particularly in sparring and preparation, but stressed that the real challenge will only come when he steps back into the ring.

“Everything that we’re seeing at the moment, his desire, his sparring, his training, looks great,” Hearn noted. “But until you get in there, that’s when you’ve got to process everything that’s happened in your life and perform.

“I know everyone just presumes he’s going to walk in and smash Prenga to pieces, but I’ll be very pleased if he does, because there’s a lot of pressure going into this fight. Not just what’s coming after, but what he’s been through as well. And it’ll be a very emotional night.”

Nollywood actress Shine Rosman has revealed that she was told she would end up becoming a prostitute after the death of her father.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶

reports that Rosman made the disclosure during a recent interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, where she also spoke about the emotional trauma she experienced following her father’s passing.

She explained that she lost her father at the age of 16, a tragedy that deeply affected her mental and emotional health, to the point where she once struggled with suicidal thoughts.

The actress added that the negative comments she received from some people during that period worsened her pain, as many wrote her off and believed she would amount to nothing.

According to her, she eventually channelled the grief and financial hardship that followed into motivation, using it as a driving force to push herself toward success.

She said: “After I lost my dad at 16, many people said to me that I would end up becoming a prostitute and get pregnant out of wedlock.”

Rosman also reflected on how grief nearly broke her, noting that losing a parent at a young age can be extremely overwhelming, but her difficult upbringing eventually shaped her ambition and resilience.

In a separate conversation, the actress also addressed misconceptions about Nollywood stars, saying many people wrongly assume that actors are wealthy simply because of their public image.

She explained that while some actors appear financially successful, many still struggle behind the scenes, as acting alone does not guarantee financial stability.

According to her, only a small number of entertainers enjoy consistent wealth, often because they have additional sources of income beyond acting.
