Star Nollywood Actress, Uche Elendu Celebrates Daughter And Recounts Testimony Baby Brought

Uche Elendu

Uche elenduOne year ago, sultry actress, Uche Elendu had her second daughter, Osinachi, who she dubbed “miraculous”.

A few days ago, her little princess turned a year old and the excited mother couldn’t hide her joy. Regardless of the controversy surrounding the birth of the baby, and even the actress’ marriage, Elendu maintains that the birth of the baby relieved her of pains and torture.

Her story: “Once upon a time, my life was lit up so bright and my story changed to the glory of the Almighty God. Osinachi is her name because she is truly from God. God used her to show the world and me that He is God all by Himself. My miracle baby, a child that defied all medical results and was conceived, a child that beat ‘Endometriosis’ and saved her mother from daily torture of pain and painkillers.

“I suffered endo for seven years and I went through the most painful years of my life, taking voltaren for pain everyday of my life, and travelling all around the world seeking medical treatment. My gynecologist in South Africa said to me: ‘Uche, endometriosis has no cure, there’s no guarantee that it won’t grow back after this surgery’.

“Imagine a doctor saying this to you in the recovery room of a just concluded surgery. Oh God, I was shattered, and true to her word, one month after I got back to Nigeria, it started again and I went back to my misery. The pain of knowing you can’t conceive again, the pain of taking different sorts of medicine both herbal and orthodox to dry up the growth, the pain of going through excruciating pain in your stomach everyday. My daughter kept asking me ‘mummy when am I gonna have a sister? All my classmates have sisters’, and this I always presented to God.”

However, after all the pains and sorrows, Uche’s midnight tears were wiped away. Hear her: “I travelled to the US for another surgery. On my arrival at the hospital in the US, I paid my bills and was scheduled for surgery, my vitals and other tests were carried out, I went home and came back the next day to be operated upon only for the doctor to call me into his office and ask: ‘Uche when was your last period?’ and I said ‘last week’ and he said ‘okay, sorry, we have to do a confirmation test on you’. I said to confirm what? And he is like ‘I’ll see you in 30 minutes’.

“Then I went to give my blood sample and waited to be called in. I went into that office again and the doctor said to me: ‘Uche this is a rare case’. My heart raced, I was scared of what he wanted to say, and then he said, ‘you are 10 weeks pregnant!!!’ Oh my God how? When? Where? All I could say was ‘Jesus!!! But I’ve been seeing my regular periods, and the Lord spoke to me and said ‘I am that I am. I do what I say I will do. For your sake, I have broken protocols; I make impossibilities possible’.”

Why would you post pictures in your underwear? – Portable out calls Tiwa Savage

Nigerian singer Portable has raked reactions on social media after calling Tiwa Savage out for posting pictures in her underwear at 40 years old.

During his recent TikTok live stream, Portable, who is known for his outspoken personality, questioned the appropriateness of Tiwa’s posts, particularly given her status as a mother and her age.

“I’ve noticed something; someone needs to talk to Tiwa Savage, please. Tell her to calm down o. I’ve been listening to her music since I was small now I’m a father and mummy Tiwa savage is still posting pictures in her underwear. Only panties? Is it good for a mum to post pictures in her underwear?”

Despite his criticism, Portable admitted Tiwa Savage appeals to him, describing her as a “bad girl” who has maintained her appeal since her younger years.

“E dey enter my eye, make I no lie. The day I met Tiwa Savage and I hugged her, it felt like I hugged a mermaid and was being swept away. But someone should tell her to calm down with the naked outfits.”

In between hysterical laughter, the singer added, “Tiwa Savage, I swear to God, you’re appealing to me. you’ve been bad since you were 19 and you’re still a bad girl at 40, you’re still wearing panties at 40.”

His remarks sparked reactions from social media users, with some slamming him and others expressing their support for his views.

An outraged Instagram user asked, “What level of disrespect is this?”

“I actually don’t think he means any harm. He’s just not emotionally intelligent. So he lacks the methodology to communicate his message appropriately. He’s basically saying Tiwa’s dress sense is becoming ‘fighting temptation’ in a nutshell,” another person wrote.

Another comment read, “He should be shut.up..Tiwa savage is an entertainer…if nicki minaj did the same u would not talk.”

AY Makun, Basketmouth discuss their 17-year feud

Published

AY Makun and Basketmouth have made their first public appearance together, marking a new chapter after their 17-year feud.

The rift between the two prominent comedians began in 2006 over unpaid performance fees and intensified in 2022, with both avoiding each other publicly.

In March 2023, AY claimed Basketmouth had yet to pay him for a show he anchored for him. Responding, Basketmouth described his colleague’s account of the incident as “lies”.

However, following Basketmouth’s apology in 2023, both comedians have put aside their differences.

In the latest episode of the ‘Glass House with AY‘ podcast, the comedian argued he did not get the money for the show while Basketmouth maintained that he was paid.

AY also shared insights into his prolonged rift with Basketmouth.

“I did not know when the fight started. I just noticed it started. Every day I wake up thinking it is a normal thing, boys will be boys and like that, it grew into several years,” he said.

“Then the third year, it seems like people were spreading more rumours about the feud till it lasted that long. It lasted too long”.

AY emphasised the feud’s impact on younger comedians. “Our feud caused some damages because in a way we were like providers for people,” he said.

Basketmouth added: “Most times people swear allegiance by default. So when we were not on good terms some people made it their business”.

“…A comedian called me to tell me AY reached out to him for a gig and was asking if it was okay to work with AY. I told him it was okay and I was happy it happened because people would know it was okay to work for either of us because it was about more money and opportunities.

“There was a guy who picked a side and came at me. Now that we are cool, he would be confused. It is collaboration over competition.”

Paul ‘Rudeboy’ Okoye, the Nigerian singer, has accused Peter ‘Mr P’ Okoye, his twin brother, over alleged intellectual property theft.

Mr P recently released the single ‘Winning’ — a few months after the brothers confirmed that Psquare, their shared music group, no longer exists.

However, in a recent Instagram post, Rudeboy claimed that the song was his, arguing that it was supposed to feature in his forthcoming album. He also alleged the producer hijacked the track.

“Written and sang by Rudeboy. Produced by same producer. Now how come? Now am I supposed to release another version? Mr Producer, your case is for another day,” he wrote.

“Just a simple thing, bring 6 songs, let me bring 6 songs. I submitted 6 songs to the so-called management. Why re-singing my own song? word for word. Song that was supposed to be in my album next year June.”

In another post, the singer vowed to release “original versions of any copied songs”, adding that “the days of manipulation are over”.

“The days of manipulation are over. And to the management, make I hear any song wey na only me sing, I go release the original version. Oloriburuku! Music is not that hard,” he wrote.
