Bolaji Ogunmola Blasts Airline After Flight Cancellations Leave Her Stranded, Film Production in Chaos
Nollywood actress and producer Bolaji Ogunmola has slammed an airline for repeated flight cancellations that left her stranded at Ekiti airport, disrupting a major film shoot and causing both financial and emotional strain. In an emotional Instagram live video, Ogunmola recounted how the airline’s repeated delays threatened her livelihood and forced her to consider travelling by road despite safety concerns. “I have cried my eyes out this morning. I am still in Ekiti,” she said. “I have actors on set, I have booked restaurants, and I am still here.” She was scheduled to fly from Ekiti to Lagos a day earlier to attend the first day of shooting for her new movie. However, the flight was initially delayed and later cancelled without explanation. “I was supposed to fly yesterday, but they said something happened and the flight was delayed. Later, they told me it was cancelled,” Ogunmola explained. She asked for alternative arrangements, and the airline assured her a flight at 8 a.m. the next day. When she arrived at the airport by 6:30 a.m., the flight was postponed multiple times—from 8 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., then to 12 p.m., and finally 5 p.m. “This is very painful because they could have just sent a message,” she said. The delays have already caused significant losses, with Ogunmola revealing she has spent between 15 and 20 million naira on the production. “My crew and cast are already on set for the first day of shooting, and I am stuck here,” she added. Ogunmola also expressed concern for her safety, saying she might have to travel by road. “I am literally stuck in a state where I don’t know anybody,” she said. She accused the airline staff of showing no empathy or remorse. “They have toyed with my time and my livelihood. They are unfair and inhumane,” she said. Ogunmola revealed that she plans to take legal action and recorded the live video as evidence of her ordeal. “My lawyers are going to handle this. I made this video so I can have proof,” she said.

Phyna Says She Will No Longer Encourage People To Audition For BBNaija, Calls Show Less Credible
Former Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Phyna has said she will no longer recommend people audition for the reality show, claiming it has lost its credibility. During a Twitch livestream, Phyna, whose real name is Ijeoma Otabor, explained that while the show can give contestants rapid fame inside the Big Brother house, the attention often disappears once they leave. She said fans quickly move on to new housemates, making it difficult for former contestants to maintain public interest. “The steeze housemates have while on the show doesn’t last afterward because the same fan base just shifts from one person to another. Nothing new comes with it,” she said. Phyna added that BBNaija no longer carries the same prestige it once did, saying, “When you tell someone now that you came out of BBNaija, they won’t rate you the way they used to.” She also warned that many people wrongly assume appearing on the show guarantees wealth or lasting fame, noting that former housemates often face the challenge of staying relevant and securing opportunities after leaving the house.

Ayra Starr’s Mother Nene Aderigbigbe Explains Why She Ended Three Close Friendships
Nene Aderigbigbe, mother of singer Ayra Starr, has shared why she permanently ended three close friendships. In a New Year’s reflection on TikTok, Nene looked back on past choices and questioned whether she might have overreacted. She explained that each friendship ended for clear personal reasons. The first fallout occurred after a serious breach of trust. Nene said a friend had shared a private conversation with her husband without permission. “I was reflecting on life, and I remembered a few years ago I cut off some friends. I don’t know if I overreacted, but do you know why I did it?” she said. “Three of us would talk about women’s things, and the next day, one of them told me my private conversation had been shared with her husband. I never picked up her call again. Why would you tell your husband what we discussed? That’s not the kind of friend I want.” The second friendship ended due to unwanted interference from the friend’s husband, who repeatedly involved Nene in personal matters. “I’m your friend, not your husband’s friend. Why tell me where you are? I’m not comfortable with that,” she said. The third breakup was caused by emotional exhaustion. Nene explained that a friend, married for over 20 years, would constantly call to complain about her husband. “Do you want me to go and confront him? That’s your marriage, not mine. I cannot be drained mentally like that,” she added. Nene noted that none of the three friends know the full reasons behind her decisions. “That’s why I cut them off, and even today, they still don’t know why,” she said. Her story underscores the importance of boundaries and protecting one’s peace in friendships.
