Chioma Chijioke, the Nigerian actress, has welcomed a baby boy — nearly two years after the death of her husband.

The movie star lost Kingsley Anosike, the Nollywood filmmaker and director, in February 2023. Anosike died in Kuwait after slumping on a football field.

On Monday evening, Chijioke announced her childbirth in an Instagram post.

The actress shared maternity photos while also expressing gratitude to God for her bundle of joy.

The identity of Chijioke’s new partner, was however, not revealed.

Her colleagues and fans have congratulated her on the new addition to her family, wishing her all the best as a new mother.

The actress had previously shared emotional posts during her mourning period, including photos of herself going bald.

She had described her late husband as her “most precious possession”.

“Death you’re indeed a thief! In a twinkle of an eye you stole from me one of my most precious possessions and I can’t even fight you,” she wrote.

“Saying my heart is broken is an understatement compared to how I’m feeling, there’s this hole in my heart that has refused to be filled.”

Oprah Winfrey debunks claim she got $1m to endorse Kamala Harris

Published

Oprah Winfrey, the media executive, has denied claims that she received a $1 million payment to campaign for Kamala Harris.

Donald Trump, the Republican standard-bearer, recently defeated Harris, candidate of the Democratic Party in the United States presidential election, to become the 47th president.

But on November 8, Washington Examiner alleged that Winfrey’s company Harpo Productions received the payment to host a celebrity town hall meeting.

The newspaper claimed the $1 million was part of a $1 billion raised by Harris to fund the election.

The report alleged the campaign “paid more than $15 million, according to federal filings,” on “event production”.

“This included a $1 million payment to Harpo Productions for the ‘Unite for America’ event, which took place in September,” it added.

Winfrey had hosted a town hall meeting for Harris on September 19, which featured prominent celebrities like Chris Rock, Jennifer Lopez, and Meryl Streep. She also appeared as a keynote speaker at Harris’ rally in Philadelphia.

Despite her involvement in the rally, the 70-year-old television host maintained that she did not receive any payment for her support.

In an interview with TMZ, Winfrey denied the report, saying “it is untrue”.

“Not true. I was paid nothing ever,” she said.

In a statement, Harpo Productions confirmed that the Harris campaign had paid for the costs of the town hall, without giving a specific figure.

“Oprah Winfrey was at no point during the campaign paid a personal fee, nor did she receive a fee from Harpo,” it added.
