BBNaija Star Vee Opens Up About Marriage Pressure As She Approaches 30
BBNaija star Vee has opened up about the constant pressure she faces about marriage as she approaches 30. She revealed that even friends she barely speaks to suddenly reach out just to ask about her love life, completely ignoring her career and personal struggles. “Nobody ever mentally prepared me for the amount of conversations I would have to have as a woman turning 30 this year,” Vee said. She shared a recent encounter with a married friend living abroad: “Hi V, oh my god, I’ve been trying to get a hold of you, it’s been so long…Anyway, I was praying and got something…When are you getting married, husband? Like bro, have you seen the price of groceries? She didn’t even ask me about my work, the thing putting a roof over my head. She only cared if there’s a man in my life.” Vee admitted that while she wants marriage and children in the future, she’s focused on her career and personal growth. “Let’s be honest, the current climate isn’t looking great. I’m focusing on work and what’s next for me. Husband, marriage, children? I think not—for now. I’m not in control of when I’ll meet the right guy, and I’m definitely not settling for the wrong one.” She also recalled a funny moment in London when a friend held her hand, looked at her finger, and said, “Hopefully by the next time I see you, there’ll be a ring on this finger.” Vee laughed and said, “Guys, I’m not in control. I’m not God. Let’s just leave it at that, man.” Vee’s candid reflections highlight the societal pressure women face around marriage and the importance of focusing on one’s own timeline.

Social media influencer VeryDarkMan (VDM) has responded to reality TV star Phyna after she recently called him a “very dirty boy” and claimed her friendship with him led actress Iyabo Ojo to dislike her. Phyna had said on social media that her relationship with Iyabo Ojo deteriorated following her interactions with VDM, noting that the actress eventually unfollowed her and distanced herself because of the connection. In his response, VDM posted a detailed message defending himself, insisting his support for Phyna was sincere and came without expecting anything in return. He listed the ways he had assisted her, from promoting her movies and offering advice to listening to her for hours and always being available whenever she needed help. “Girl, when I genuinely loved and supported you in every way I could… there was no time you needed me that I didn’t show up. VDM helped repost your new movie, VDM paid for work, VDM gave advice, VDM listened to your family issues for hours. Ask yourself, what has VDM ever gotten in return? Nothing! It was all pure love and support. When the Dangote matter came, VDM turned up and planned with you. Your greed ended everything. Today, the people pushing you have left, you know why? Your story no longer gives them buzz. I genuinely wish you well,” he wrote. VDM suggested Phyna’s choices had strained her relationships with former supporters but emphasized he bears no ill will and still wishes her success. The exchange has sparked online discussions about loyalty, gratitude, and the sometimes complicated dynamics between influencers and entertainers.

Seun questioned, “How many of your fathers can do that from the grave?” underscoring that Fela’s achievements remain unmatched. He stressed that comparisons between Wizkid and Fela are misguided, given Fela’s extraordinary stature. Seun added, “Fela’s son. Fela is still blessing me from the grave 29 years later. How many of your fathers can do that from the grave? None, because your fathers are not accomplished.

Seun Kuti Calls Wizkid Greatest Artiste, Urges Fans To Leave Fela’s Name Out Of Comparisons
Afrobeat musician Seun Kuti has addressed recent debates in which some Wizkid fans invoked his late father, Fela Anikulapo‑Kuti, to measure the Nigerian superstar’s success. In a video shared online, Seun praised Wizkid, saying, “Wizkid is the greatest artist in the world; I can say Wizkid is the greatest artist of all time.” But he questioned why his father’s name continues to be brought into comparisons. “If you want Wizkid to be great, he’s the greatest. Leave my father out of the conversation,” he said. Seun stressed that Fela’s legacy is unparalleled and should not be used to diminish other artists. He noted that globally, fans don’t compare contemporary stars to legends like Bob Marley, Hugh Masekela, or Aretha Franklin, yet in Nigeria, Fela’s name is repeatedly pulled into debates. Highlighting his family’s humility, Seun said, “We don’t cross our lane or claim our father is above everyone. But somehow, there’s always a reason to drag him down.” The musician’s comments have reignited conversations online about respecting Fela’s legacy while celebrating the achievements of modern Nigerian artists like Wizkid.
