I’m Bigger Than Fela – Wizkid Continues to Fire at Seun Kuti Over Fans Comparing Him to Fela
Nigerian music superstar Wizkid has escalated his online clash with Seun Kuti following the Afrobeat singer’s repeated criticism of fans who compare Wizkid to his legendary father, Fela Kuti. On Instagram, Wizkid targeted Seun directly, writing: “Pussy boy @bigbirdkuti ok I big pass your papa!! Wetin u one do? Fool at 40!” The post mocked Seun’s repeated attacks and suggested Wizkid sees himself as surpassing even Fela, fueling reactions across social media. He then took the feud to X (formerly Twitter), posting: “Everyday Wizkid! I fuck ur ugly wife ? Wetin!” and “Fela fight for freedom this fool Dey fight fc! Oloshi Omo ale !” In his posts, Wizkid contrasted Fela’s historic activism with what he described as Seun’s focus on criticizing fans, portraying the feud as trivial compared to the elder Kuti’s legacy. The spat began after Seun publicly condemned comparisons between Wizkid and Fela, saying they disrespected the late Afrobeat icon’s cultural contributions. Seun argued that such comparisons, often made online, were ignorant and unfair to his father’s legacy. Wizkid’s aggressive response has sparked widespread debate on social media, with fans and critics divided over respect, legacy, and the often intense culture surrounding Nigerian music fandom.
VeryDarkMan Challenges BLord’s Ratel Trademark Claim, Demands Certificate Proof
Social media commentator VeryDarkMan (VDM) has slammed businessman BLord over his claim to have trademarked the name Ratel, calling it a publicity stunt and empty threats. The controversy erupted after BLord warned VDM to stop using the name, asserting that he held full ownership of the brand and that any usage would require his approval. Responding on his Instagram page, VDM dismissed the claim and challenged BLord to provide official documentation. “First things first, to show you how stupid a lot of you are and how dumb you are. Where is the certificate? Where is your acceptance letter?” he wrote. VDM expressed disbelief that someone well-versed in advertising and branding would make such a serious claim without proof. “I did not believe that somebody like BLord that knows about advertising, that knows about branding, will foolish himself like this,” he added. He further clarified that while three names — Ratel, The Ratel, and Ratel NG — were reportedly filed for trademark registration in September 2024, filing alone does not guarantee ownership. VDM noted that rather than harming him, the controversy has only increased Ratel’s visibility and publicity more than ever. View this post on Instagram

Destiny Boy’s Father Seeks Public Help Over Missing SUV After Singer’s Death
The father of late Afrobeat star Afeez Adeshina, popularly known as Destiny Boy, has appealed to the public for assistance after his son’s SUV reportedly went missing just days following the singer’s death. In a video that went viral on Tuesday, the grieving father explained that the vehicle, purchased from Lycon Autos, was allegedly returned to the dealership shortly after Destiny Boy passed away and has not been seen since. He noted that he had accompanied his son during the purchase. On the day the SUV was bought, the dealership provided a driver to deliver it to the family’s home. Destiny Boy later kept the driver for personal use, but problems arose when the driver claimed the singer owed him money and allegedly returned the SUV to the dealership without informing the family. “Nigerians, please help me. My son had a car, an SUV jeep. We went together to buy it. Lycon Autos assigned a driver to bring the car home. Later, Destiny used the driver personally. The driver said Destiny owed him money, so he took the car back to the dealership. I don’t even have the driver’s number. If the car were here, I would have gone to pick it up,” the father said. Destiny Boy, who died on Sunday at the age of 22, had been battling a long-term mysterious illness described by his mother as “Ogu oru,” which frequently triggered seizures, she revealed in an interview on Monday. The family is now appealing to anyone with information about the vehicle to come forward and help recover it.
Rapper Mr Real Issues Public Apology to D’banj Over CREAM Comments
Rapper Mr Real has publicly apologised to singer D’banj following controversial comments he made about the Creative, Reality, Entertainment, Arts and Music (CREAM) platform. The dispute began when Mr Real claimed the platform could not afford a N20 million ambassadorial deal, sparking criticism online. D’banj’s lawyer, Pelumi Olajengbesi, responded by filing a criminal defamation petition and requesting a summons against the rapper.

In an Instagram video, Mr Real explained that his comments were based on a misunderstanding and expressed deep regret. “This video is an apology to my boss, D’banj. I misunderstood and misinterpreted some things concerning the CREAM platform, and I sincerely apologise,” he said. He added, “D’banj, you have played a huge role in my life and career. You are like a father and mentor to me. I am truly sorry and ask for your forgiveness. I will fully cooperate with the legal process and remain loyal to you.” Mr Real confirmed that he has retracted his previous statements and will refrain from making further public comments. He said he is committed to resolving the matter privately while showing respect within the music industry. “I hold D’banj in the highest regard, and I am committed to doing better moving forward,” he concluded.

Sarah Martins Hospitalized After Experiencing Frightening Health Scare
Actress Sarah Martins has been hospitalized following a frightening health episode. On Instagram, she revealed that she woke up unable to feel parts of her body and briefly felt “lifeless.” She shared: “Woke up today and couldn’t feel any part of my body. For a second, I felt lifeless. I still struggled and went to my stores to do inventory and a few interviews for incoming employees, and that was when I slumped. All through December, I worked every single day, and even when my staff travelled for the season celebration, I still kept working. No days off, no stretches, no nothing… just a walking corps working tirelessly to cater for others, forgetting myself. I did over 32 tests today, and all came out negative, including cancer, fibroid, liver, kidney, malaria, typhoid, etc. I guess God took proper care of my organs while I neglected my body. I am typing this from a sick bed, but I will be fine because the God that protects the vulnerable kids I struggle for will never fail me. They said I’m extremely exhausted and need proper bed rest. Thank you, Heavenly Father, for your constant protection over my life.” Sarah’s post highlighted the toll her busy schedule has taken on her health, urging the importance of rest and self-care.
