Nollywood Actress Bolaji Ogunmola Threatens Legal Action Against United Nigeria Airline Over Flight Delays and Cancellations in Ekiti

Popular Nollywood actress Bolaji Ogunmola has expressed strong frustration with United Nigeria Airline after experiencing multiple flight cancellations during a work trip to Ekiti State. The actress revealed that her return flight to Lagos State was canceled twice within two days, leaving her stranded and unable to meet her filming commitments. In a candid Instagram video posted on Thursday morning, Ogunmola explained that she traveled to Ekiti State for a professional engagement and had plans to return to Lagos for another filming session scheduled on Wednesday. Unfortunately, her journey was repeatedly disrupted by the airline, which failed to provide timely updates or alternative arrangements. She expressed her disappointment over the airline’s lack of communication, explaining that she was left waiting for hours without assistance. “I was supposed to fly yesterday, but when I got to the airport, they told me the flight was delayed due to unforeseen circumstances. Hours later, I was informed that the flight had been canceled entirely,” she said. Ogunmola continued, describing the strain the situation placed on her schedule and finances. “I asked what the next plan was since I urgently needed to get back to Lagos. They had no solution. I even tried other routes, including Akure, but all efforts failed. This morning, I was informed that the flight would depart at 8:00 a.m., prompting me to pay for hotel accommodation and additional expenses. By 6:30 a.m., I arrived at the airport only to learn the flight had been pushed to 9:30 a.m., and later again to 12:00 p.m., then 5:30 p.m. I have filming commitments that cannot be postponed, and my production crew is already on set,” she stated. Ogunmola stressed that the repeated delays have not only disrupted her schedule but also impacted her livelihood. “This situation is extremely frustrating. It’s not just my time being wasted; it’s also my source of income. I’m in a state where I don’t know anyone, waiting for transportation to Lagos, and I have no idea when I’ll arrive safely. I will be taking legal action because this treatment is unfair, inconsiderate, and lacks basic decency,” she added, visibly emotional. The actress concluded by announcing that her lawyer will be taking the matter up, emphasizing that her intention is not to engage in confrontation but to hold the airline accountable for its negligence. This incident has sparked conversations online about airline customer service and reliability, with many Nigerians sharing similar experiences of flight delays and cancellations, particularly with local carriers. It also raises questions about the policies airlines have in place to support passengers during such disruptions.

I’m Ready to Apologise – Phyna Opens Up on Reconciling With Davido

Former Big Brother Naija winner, Phyna, has publicly expressed her willingness to make peace with Nigerian music superstar Davido, nearly two years after their heated online disagreement stirred reactions across social media. The tension between the reality TV star and the award-winning singer dates back to October 2023, when Davido reportedly liked a post on X (formerly Twitter) that described Phyna’s fanbase as “useless.” The action quickly caught attention online, triggering backlash and widespread discussion among fans of both public figures. At the time, the situation escalated when Phyna reacted while congratulating Davido on the birth of his twins with his wife, Chioma. In her reaction, she questioned whether she had personally offended the singer or done something to deserve what she interpreted as hostility from him. Davido, however, responded by stating that he did not know who Phyna was. The statement further intensified the online exchange, prompting Phyna to reply with the now-viral phrase, “God knows me,” before unfollowing Davido on Instagram. Fast forward to the present, Phyna appears ready to put the issue behind her. During a recent livestream, the reality star openly spoke about her desire to reconcile with Davido and even expressed interest in hosting him on a live session. “I would like to stream with Davido,” she said during the broadcast. Revisiting the incident, Phyna revealed that she is prepared to publicly apologise to the singer. However, she stressed the importance of understanding what truly caused the disagreement in the first place. According to her, clarity and communication are necessary before any apology can be properly made. Speaking in Nigerian Pidgin, Phyna acknowledged Davido’s seniority and influence in the entertainment industry, noting that respect should be given where it is due. She explained that she wants Davido to clarify whether liking the controversial post was intentional or simply a mistake, as that action was what triggered the misunderstanding. She further explained that Davido’s comment about not knowing her might have been misinterpreted, suggesting that the statement could have been taken differently from how it was originally intended. Phyna’s remarks signal a shift toward peace and maturity, showing her openness to dialogue and reconciliation rather than prolonged conflict. As fans continue to react, many see her move as a positive step toward resolving misunderstandings within Nigeria’s entertainment space.

Jesse Flames Opens 2026 With “Praise the Lord” Featuring Magnito

Jesse Flames begins 2026 on a reflective note with “Praise the Lord”, a compelling collaboration featuring Nigerian rapper Magnito. Originally released in December 2025, the track now takes on renewed significance as it carries forward into the new year, marking a moment of intention, clarity, and artistic direction for the London-based artist. Rather than chasing fleeting trends, Jesse Flames continues to focus on purpose-driven music that emphasizes substance, growth, and longevity. As Afrobeats evolves at an increasingly rapid pace, often defined by loud moments and instant virality, Jesse Flames positions himself differently. His creative process remains calm, intentional, and rooted in meaning. “Praise the Lord” reflects this philosophy, standing as a thoughtful continuation of his artistic journey rather than a rushed seasonal release. The official music video is scheduled to premiere on January 10, further reinforcing the song’s role as a tone-setter for the year ahead. Coming off the success of his breakout record “FLEX,” this release signals a noticeable shift in emotional direction. While “FLEX” leaned into celebration and confidence, “Praise the Lord” turns inward. The song is deeply reflective, weaving themes of gratitude, personal evolution, and awareness into a soulful soundscape. It captures a calm assurance—one built on experience rather than excess—allowing listeners to connect beyond surface-level enjoyment. According to Jesse Flames, the record speaks to the unseen layers of progress. It acknowledges both visible achievements and the quieter struggles that shape growth. The song recognizes discipline, lessons learned, and perseverance, offering a balanced perspective on success that feels grounded and relatable. Magnito’s contribution adds a powerful dimension to the track. Known for his lyrical sharpness and authenticity within Nigerian hip hop, Magnito brings a seasoned voice that aligns seamlessly with the song’s themes. His verse strengthens the message of resilience, faith, and self-awareness, giving the collaboration emotional weight and cultural depth. Released during the peak of Detty December, “Praise the Lord” naturally fit into the season’s celebratory atmosphere while still offering space for reflection as the year closed. Now, with its visual release arriving in January, the song transitions from a year-end reflection into an opening statement—setting intention rather than marking a reset. Jesse Flames’ identity is shaped by a truly global background. Born in the United States, raised in Festac, Lagos, and currently based in London, his sound reflects lived experiences across cultures. By blending Afrobeats, hip hop, and melodic soul, he creates music that feels polished yet personal, avoiding trend imitation in favor of authenticity. His steady rise has been supported by tangible milestones rather than hype. With over 11 million streams, performances at O2 Brixton Academy and OVO Arena Wembley, and recognition from respected platforms such as The Guardian and Business Post Nigeria, Jesse Flames continues to build momentum organically. Looking toward 2026 and 2027, he is preparing for upcoming collaborations with Ice Prince, M.I Abaga, and Smurlee, signaling the next phase of his evolving career. “Praise the Lord” featuring Magnito is currently available across all major streaming platforms, serving as both a reflection of past growth and a clear statement of what lies ahead.

Portable Escapes Police Arrest After Alleged Assault on Baby Mama Ashabi Simple

Popular but controversial Nigerian street-hop singer, Habeeb Okikiola, widely known as Portable, has reportedly evaded police arrest following an alleged physical altercation involving his fourth baby mama, actress Ashabi Simple. The incident was said to have occurred on Thursday, January 1, 2026, when Ashabi visited Portable’s bar located in Ogun State. What was meant to be a casual visit reportedly turned into a heated confrontation that later gained massive attention on social media. A video that surfaced online captured a tense moment between both parties. In the footage, Ashabi was seen holding onto Portable’s clothing while expressing frustration over being repeatedly referred to as just a “baby mama.” She emotionally demanded that the singer acknowledge her as his wife and not merely the mother of his child. During the exchange, Ashabi was heard insisting that she deserved recognition beyond the title of baby mama, stating that she was exhausted from the constant labeling. Portable, however, reacted forcefully by pushing her away and making it clear that he only recognizes one woman as his wife, identified as Bewaji. According to Portable, every other woman who has children for him falls strictly under the category of baby mamas and not wives. His blunt response reportedly intensified the disagreement, pushing the situation further out of control. Visibly emotional, Ashabi responded passionately, declaring that she was willing to face death rather than accept the humiliation, a statement that shocked many viewers who later watched the viral clip. Following the incident, Ashabi, alongside her siblings, proceeded to report the matter to the police, accusing Portable of assault, abuse, and intimidation. In a separate video shared on her Instagram page, Ashabi narrated her side of the story in detail. She explained that she had initially spent the New Year celebrations peacefully with her family before receiving a call from Portable, who allegedly told her he was not in a good mood. She further claimed that Portable requested she bring New Year food to his bar, a request she agreed to. Upon arriving at the bar, she contacted him and was asked to meet him outside. It was during this meeting that a disagreement reportedly broke out, leading to her being slapped and physically attacked. Ashabi alleged that Portable seized their phones and threatened her and her siblings with an axe, escalating the situation into one of fear and distress. She added that when the police later visited Portable’s residence, they encountered his pregnant wife, Bewaji, as the singer had already fled the scene to avoid arrest. The incident has continued to stir mixed reactions across Nigeria’s online space. While some social media users condemned Portable’s alleged actions, others criticized Ashabi, accusing her of forcing herself into the singer’s life. A section of commentators also expressed concern over what they described as emotional dependency and low self-esteem. As of the time of reporting, the matter remains a subject of intense public debate, with many calling for accountability and others urging restraint and deeper reflection on relationship boundaries and domestic conflicts involving public figures.

“I Would Have Died” — Actress Bimbo Thomas Recounts Terrifying Armed Robbery Experience on Omo Ghetto 2 Movie Set

Popular Nollywood actress Bimbo Thomas has opened up about a deeply frightening experience that nearly turned fatal during the filming of the blockbuster movie Omo Ghetto: The Saga. The actress revealed that armed robbers allegedly invaded a hotel where cast and crew members were lodged during production in Ebute Metta, Lagos, an incident she described as one of the most traumatic moments of her life. Bimbo Thomas, who played the character Nikky in the Funke Akindele–led movie, explained that the attack happened at a time when the production team was already dealing with intense pressure and frequent disruptions. According to her, the incident was not random but appeared to be targeted, with strong indications that Funke Akindele was the main focus of the attackers. Speaking during an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, the actress recounted how filming Omo Ghetto 2, a movie centered on street culture and gang life, attracted unwanted attention from local hoodlums within the filming environment. She explained that shooting in Ebute Metta came with constant interruptions from street boys who felt connected to the storyline of the film. “We were filming in Ebute Metta, and the boys around kept disturbing us because the movie reflected their real-life experiences,” she said. Despite being familiar with the area and having grown up there, Bimbo Thomas noted that this did not protect the production team from harassment. As the disturbances intensified, additional security had to be brought in to ensure filming could continue. “It’s my area. I thought they would respect me, but we still had to bring in security so we could do our job,” she added. The terrifying incident occurred late at night, after filming activities had ended for the day. Members of the cast were accommodated in different hotels across the area. Bimbo Thomas revealed that she was initially staying at a different hotel before Funke Akindele insisted she join her. According to her, Funke suggested they relax and have a massage session, something they usually did after long workdays. Actress Eniola Badmus, she noted, was lodged in another hotel entirely. The situation escalated shortly before 1:00 a.m., when loud noises shattered the calm atmosphere. “We suddenly heard heavy banging and people shouting ‘Ole! Ole!’,” she recalled. Almost immediately, fear took over as it became clear that the hotel was under attack. Panic spread among everyone inside, with prayers becoming the only response. Bimbo Thomas described Funke Akindele as very prayerful, stating that everyone present began praying intensely as they tried to understand what was happening. Believing Funke was the primary target due to her celebrity status, they attempted to protect her. “I told them she was the face everyone recognized. We tried hiding her under the bed, but it didn’t work, so we moved her into the bathroom,” she explained. Funke Akindele reportedly hid under her gown in the bathroom while others knelt in fear, praying for survival. “The masseuse was praying in tongues, Funke was praying in tongues, and I was begging God for mercy,” Thomas said. Although the attackers initially failed to gain access, they returned moments later with greater force and successfully broke into the hotel. “When they came back, it was clear they were looking for Funke. They were calling her name,” she revealed. Eventually, Funke Akindele came out of hiding. Bimbo Thomas said she initially believed the attackers would simply steal valuables and leave. However, the situation took an unexpected and disturbing turn. “They asked her to dress up and dragged her downstairs to her car,” she said. What followed left everyone in shock. “I suddenly heard Funke singing Emi Omo Ghetto. I didn’t understand what was happening. They told her to sing and dance, and she did,” Thomas recounted. She further revealed that although only six armed men entered the hotel, there were about twenty others stationed outside, a detail they only discovered later. “We didn’t know they were that many. We were completely helpless,” she said. Emergency calls were immediately placed to influential individuals, including Oba Saheed Elegushi, who reportedly mobilized support. Not long after, officers from the Panti Police Station arrived at the scene. Gunshots rang out as security forces engaged the attackers, forcing them to flee. “It was chaos everywhere. Someone was shot, a pastor was rushed to the hospital, and about 20 to 30 of us were stranded at the reception—confused, scared, and praying,” she said. Months later, Bimbo Thomas learned that several of the attackers had been arrested, while others were reportedly killed during follow-up operations. “I was grateful. At that moment, I was ready to attack one of them without thinking. I could have been killed,” she admitted. She traced the attack back to an earlier incident during filming when some hoodlums who disrupted the set were arrested and compelled to record apology videos. “Even though we settled the area before filming, that incident hurt them deeply,” she explained. Describing the entire experience as cruel and emotionally draining, Bimbo Thomas said the trauma stayed with her long after the incident. She also recalled a conversation with Funke Akindele later on. “When she asked why I didn’t hand her over, I told her if they were going to kill her, they would have killed all of us together,” she said. Ending her account on a note of gratitude, the actress emphasized how close they came to death. “We are truly grateful to God,” she concluded.

She Approached Me First – MC Fish Speaks on Marriage With Anita Joseph

The entertainer made this known on Saturday through a message posted on his Instagram story, where he addressed various allegations circulating online about his marriage to the actress. According to reports monitored by LMSINT MEDIA, Anita Joseph had earlier informed the public about the end of her five-year marriage to MC Fish. The announcement was made on December 23, 2025, via her official Instagram page, where she confirmed that the relationship had come to a close.

He emphasized that contrary to popular belief, he did not initiate the relationship. In his Instagram story, the MC stated that he was actively working as a hype man when Anita Joseph expressed interest in him.

He wrote in Pidgin English, explaining that he was busy doing his job when he was approached, stressing that the story being told online does not reflect reality. He further expressed disappointment over how the end of the marriage quickly turned into allegations about financial dependency. MC Fish also challenged the claims that he was being fed or sponsored by the actress, daring her or anyone else to openly confirm such accusations if they were true. His reaction suggests frustration over how personal matters have been twisted into public assumptions following the separation. As discussions continue online, the situation has drawn widespread attention from fans and followers of both public figures.

Shaffy Bello Explains Why She Avoids Long Road Trips in Nigeria

Popular Nollywood actress Shaffy Bello has openly shared her strong reservations about embarking on long-distance road travel within Nigeria, revealing that she avoids road trips that extend beyond the Lagos–Ibadan axis. During a recent sit-down conversation with media personality VJ Adams, the veteran film star spoke candidly about her transportation preferences and how they differ when she is inside the country compared to when she travels overseas. According to her, while she enjoys road journeys in foreign countries, the situation in Nigeria makes such trips uncomfortable for her. Shaffy Bello explained that her decision is influenced largely by concerns related to road conditions and personal safety. She emphasized that these factors have led her to rely more on air travel and water transportation whenever she needs to move around Nigeria. The actress further disclosed that her strong dislike for road trips within the country has had a noticeable impact on her social engagements. Because many events or personal visits require long drives, she often declines invitations that involve extensive road travel. Sharing her thoughts directly, Bello made it clear that road journeys in Nigeria are not something she is willing to compromise on easily. While she is open to traveling by road abroad, she draws a firm line when it comes to similar trips locally. She also noted that she might only reconsider if the person she is visiting holds a very special place in her heart. Even at that, distance remains a major deciding factor. According to her, once the destination goes beyond Ibadan, she is unlikely to make the trip. Over time, this stance has become well known among her friends and associates. As a result, many people now assume she will decline invitations that involve long road travel and often choose not to invite her at all. Shaffy Bello’s comments reflect a broader conversation about transportation challenges in Nigeria and how they influence lifestyle choices, even for public figures. Her remarks underline the importance of infrastructure, security, and convenience in shaping travel preferences within the country.

Stop Addressing Me as Davido’s Wife – Sophia Momodu Tells Fans

Sophia Momodu, a Nigerian entrepreneur and the mother of Davido’s first child, has openly cautioned members of the public to stop identifying her as the wife of the popular Afrobeats singer. In a video that has since gained attention online, Sophia addressed a recurring issue she continues to face years after her relationship with the music star ended. According to her, despite the fact that she and Davido separated a long time ago—and despite his current marital status—some fans still insist on calling her his wife. She explained that such labels make her uncomfortable and fail to acknowledge personal boundaries, stressing that people deserve to be addressed correctly and respectfully. Sophia noted that relationships end, lives move forward, and it is important for outsiders to accept these changes without forcing outdated narratives on those involved. Sharing a personal encounter, she recounted meeting a content creator who greeted her enthusiastically, referring to her as “Imade’s mother and Davido’s wife.” The remark caught her off guard, as she made it clear that she does not hold that position in the singer’s life. Sophia used the moment to remind the public that respect for marriages and individual decisions is essential. She pointed out that everyone involved has moved on and is living their own life, and fans should also allow that transition to happen peacefully. Reaffirming her stance, she urged people to stop attaching her name to a role that no longer applies, emphasizing that peace, mutual respect, and personal growth should be prioritized over unnecessary labels. According to her, all parties are content with their current paths, and there is no reason to reopen chapters that have long been closed.

According to him, his children now look up to him for strength and reassurance as they all attempt to navigate life without Allwell Ademola.
