In a recent development that has captured the attention of fans and media alike, Nigerian Afrobeat sensation Dami Ogulu, better known as Burna Boy, and American singer Chloe Bailey have seemingly confirmed their romantic involvement through a public display of affection. The pair was spotted sharing a kiss, reigniting speculation about their relationship status.
This blossoming romance appears to have begun during Bailey’s visit to Nigeria, where the duo was seen holding hands after an evening out at a Lagos club. The intimate gesture has led many netizens to speculate that their relationship is now official.
Chloe Bailey has addressed the growing rumors in an interview with ‘The Breakfast Club,’ where she expressed her fondness for Nigeria. “Nigeria was so beautiful. I had the best time. Yes, I was in the club with Burna Boy. The nightlife was so many colours, so many lights, so many cameras,” she remarked. When pressed on whether their outing was purely platonic or indicative of a romantic relationship, Bailey confidently stated, “I am a grown woman. I had a great time in Nigeria.”
As both artists continue to thrive in their respective careers, their connection is certainly one to watch, leaving fans eager for more updates on this intriguing pairing.
On Friday, reports surfaced regarding the arrest of Martins Vincent Otse, the social media influencer known as VeryDarkMan (VDM), by the Nigerian Police Force in Abuja. The arrest, confirmed by his lawyer Denise Adeyanju via X (formerly Twitter), occurred at a branch of Guaranty Trust Bank (GTB).
Mr. Adeyanju stated he spoke with authorities prior to the arrest and characterized the action as “absolutely unacceptable,” adding, “Demanding accountability is not a crime.” He further indicated that VDM was arrested alongside a friend, identified as C Park.
While details surrounding the circumstances of the arrest remain limited, this incident marks a second instance of police detention for VDM, following a prior invitation and subsequent detention in November 2024. The Nigerian Police Force has yet to release an official statement regarding the arrest. Further updates will be provided as more information becomes available.
Habeeb Hamzat, the 19-year-old Nigerian online personality known as Peller, recently expressed a poignant sentiment regarding his relationship with his family. In a conversation with fellow TikToker Sandra Benede, Peller revealed the emotional toll of being the primary provider for his family at such a young age.
He lamented the weight of responsibility placed upon him, leading to a feeling of detachment. Peller stated a preference for financially supporting his family from a distance, admitting that he no longer desires physical proximity, citing a divergence in mentality. His comments highlight the significant challenges faced by young breadwinners, grappling with adult burdens while navigating their own personal development. The situation raises important questions about societal expectations and the pressures exerted upon youth in similar circumstances.
The recently concluded 17th Headies Awards witnessed an unexpected incident involving socialite and entrepreneur, Pascal Chibuike Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest. Despite his high profile and connections within the entertainment industry, Mr. Okechukwu was reportedly denied entry to the prestigious event held at the Landmark Event Centre on Sunday, April 27, 2025.
Sources indicate that the denial stemmed from Mr. Okechukwu’s lack of a formal invitation. A video circulating online depicts him engaged in a discussion with security personnel at the entrance. This event has sparked considerable debate, with commentators weighing the importance of adhering to established event protocols regardless of social standing. The Headies Awards, attended by dignitaries such as Lagos Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, operated under a strict invitation-only policy, highlighting the organizers’ commitment to maintaining order and exclusivity. The incident serves as a reminder that even established figures are subject to prescribed event entry procedures.
