Cardi B Denies Receiving Payment for Rally Appearance with Vice President Harris.
Rapper Cardi B has publicly denied allegations that she received payment for her appearance at a rally for Vice President Kamala Harris in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. During the event, held in support of the Democratic Party’s candidate for the upcoming presidential election, Cardi B voiced her endorsement and addressed critical social issues.
These rumors of financial compensation emerged shortly after the rally, prompting Cardi B to clarify the matter through her X handle. In her statement, she asserted, “I did not get paid a dollar for this…I actually been talking about these topics for the past couple years for free on my platforms!! Before I was a celebrity, I was a product of poverty for 24 years so you not gonna tell me what I want to see in my community.”
Cardi B’s remarks highlight her ongoing commitment to advocating for social change, drawing from her personal experiences and background. Her involvement at the rally underscores the growing intersection of celebrity influence and political engagement in contemporary discourse.
Nigerian singer Naira Marley’s family life has become a topic of public interest after Instagram model and TikToker Sandra Benede publicly acknowledged being the mother of his twin daughters, Aishat and Simiat Fashola.
The admission occurred during a recent livestream with streamer Peller, who initiated the conversation regarding the children. While Ms. Benede confirmed her parentage, she clarified that she and Mr. Marley are not married.
Speculation regarding a potential relationship between the two figures arose in May 2022 following a birthday greeting from Ms. Benede to Mr. Marley. The recent confirmation now sheds further light on their connection and the children’s parentage.
Nollywood actress Mary Njoku has recently ignited a debate regarding the necessity of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) examination for university admissions in Nigeria. In a statement posted on her Instagram story, Njoku questioned the need for JAMB and post-UTME, arguing that the Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) should be sufficient proof of a candidate’s completion of secondary education.
Her statement comes amidst recent controversy surrounding JAMB, particularly following widespread reports of mass failures in the 2025 Unified Tertiary Matriculation Examinations (UTME). While JAMB has admitted to errors and announced retakes for affected candidates, Njoku’s questioning highlights a deeper concern regarding the redundancy and potential inefficiencies within the current university admission process. The actress’s comments add fuel to an existing debate about the effectiveness and fairness of the JAMB examination in evaluating a student’s readiness for tertiary education.
