Davido under fire for participating in US election

Published

Davido, the Afrobeats star, has come under intense criticism on social media for participating in the 2024 US presidential election.

Donald Trump defeated Vice-President Kamala Harris of the Democratic Party on Wednesday to win the US presidential election.

But on Tuesday, Davido shared a photo of himself holding a sticker that reads “I am a Georgian voter. I secured my vote”.

The singer expressed his enthusiasm as a “first-time voter in the US”.

However, many Nigerians have called him out for being “hypocritical,” alleging that he never voted in Nigeria’s 2023 presidential election

Some users argued that Davido’s sudden interest in voting in the US election seems like a bid for validation from Americans.

Others defended Davido’s right to vote in the US election, citing his citizenship as a valid reason. They argued that it was his civic duty to participate in the democratic process, regardless of his nationality.

“This guy is a hypocrite, you’ve never voted in any presidential election in Nigeria, but now you’re seeking validation from Americans,” a user wrote.

In another comment, a user added: “When it concerns Nigeria, you will never see them. The only time they are interested is when they can chase clout with it. Yeyebrities.”

Ufuoma McDermott narrates how excessive drug damaged her kidney

Published

By

Ufuoma McDermott, the Nollywood actress, has revealed the cause of her stage four kidney disease.

In a recent episode of the WithChude podcast, McDermott shared that her kidney disease was caused by prolonged misuse of strong painkillers due to migraines and headaches.

The actress revealed that she had avoided wearing glasses due to concerns about her appearance, leading to chronic headaches. She said to manage the pain, she took strong painkillers, unaware of the long-term consequences.

The 43-year-old said she found out about the cause after she and her brother were both diagnosed with kidney disease, sparking fears that it might be genetic.

“I really wish everyone would understand the importance of health. My brother was diagnosed late on stage 4 of kidney disease and he goes straight into dialysis and has complications. I was diagnosed earlier,” she said.

“So I have lived on medication for almost 12 years now. When my brother got diagnosed, I ran to my cardiologist. My parents were scared, thinking if this was genetic. We had to trace the kidney disease and we learned it was from drug abuse.

“I grew up with migraines, headaches, and eye aches, and I never wore my glasses because they made me look like a geek. I would take painkillers for my migraine. I took strong painkillers and not the ordinary painkillers because I wanted the pain to go away.”

‘Soon they’ll say I’m 40 seconds man’ — Yul Edochie hits critics

Published

Yul Edochie, the Nigerian actor, has taken a hit at critics of his marriage to Judy Austin.

Yul shocked fans after he unveiled Austin as his second wife in April 2022. He also announced their first child together — to the dissatisfaction of May, his first wife.

In an Instagram post on Tuesday, the 42-year-old filmmaker addressed critics who he claimed were spreading falsehoods about him to elicit sympathy.

“No lie wey dem never talk for my head just to draw pity and sell market,” he said in pidgin English.

“Dem go soon talk say I be 40 seconds man.”

Although Yul did not mention names, his post comes after his brother Linc’s comment about his second marriage.

Linc and Yul are the sons of veteran actor Pete Edochie.

But in a recent interview, Linc shared his thoughts on Yul’s decision to constantly flaunt Judy on social media.

He cautioned that the people praising Yul would quickly turn against him if issues arose in his second marriage.

“What is done is done… My father always says, ‘Take your marriage off social media,” Linc said.

In August 2023, May filed for divorce from Yul and demanded N100 million in damages.
