Kizz Daniel Ex- Manager, Tumi Lawrence, Wasn’t Sacked, He Resigned -Source Reveals
Following widespread reports that Kizz Daniel sacked his manager, Oluwatumininu Lawrence; barely two weeks after Davido allegedly slapped and physically assaulted him at his ‘City of David’ concert on December 27th, many have questioned the rationale behind the sudden change in management.
While speculations that the altercation between Davido, his aides and Tumi Lawrence at Eko Hotel may have been the reason behind Kizz Daniel’s decision to dump Tumi for a new manager, a reliable source in Kizz’s camp who spoke to Potpourri on anonymous grounds has come out to clear the air on the matter.
According to the source, Kizz Daniel did not sack Tumi, he willingly quit his job as Kizz’s manager.
“The reports gone viral online that Kizz Daniel fired his manager, Tumi Lawrence, is false. How could he have sacked him; Kizz cannot even come out to say that he sacked Tumi because he willingly resigned as Kizz’s manager.
The new lady parading herself as Kizz’s new manager was actually brought in by Tumi to handle publishing; but she began usurping everything. Then Kizz decided that she becomes his new manager while Tumi will still be handling bookings which didn’t go down well with him.
eventually decided to quit because he couldn’t take it. He felt cheated, slighted and disrespected, so he voluntarily resigned”, the source said.
In a chat with Potpourri, another close associate of the ‘Woju’ singer who pleaded anonymity accused him of being obsessed with gaining international recognition, which is why he let Tumi off the hook when he decided to quit.
“I really don’t understand Kizz anymore, but I think he is obsessed with the need to gain international recognition, if not, why would you just bring someone else on the team when you still have a substantive manager who has done everything to promote your brand beyond imagination? And trust me; Kizz would not say anything about all this because that’s his style.
Have you wondered why he hasn’t personally said anything about all this since? He knows what he is doing.”
However, Kizz Daniel has remained radio silent on the matter, but his new management, led by one Rebecca Junaid has released an official statement stating that Flyboi INC and Kizz Daniel are now under a new management, with one Ogaga Sakpaide as the new public relations personnel.

Uche Ogbodo reveals why she blocked May Edochie on social media
Uche Ogbodo, the Nollywood actress, has opened up about her decision to block May, the first wife of Yul Edochie, on social media.
The actress was responding to critics who linked the recent robbery at her boutique store to her support for Yul’s second wife Judy Austin via her Instagram page.
Uche claimed May’s fans have been consistently harassing her online. The film star said this prompted her to block May due to her “apparent tolerance for their toxic behaviour”.
She emphasized that karma does not target innocent people with pure hearts, and clarified that the robbery was simply a life event, not a form of karma.
Uche also expressed frustration with the “negative comments from May’s supporters”, telling them to stop watching her videos if they are bothered.
“Toxic May Edochie fans! Unah go dey Taya ooo. Very very toxic bunch of lunatics! You people don’t own this social media,” she wrote.
“No matter how toxic you get, you can never pass Wizkid’s FC. Stop watching my videos if it hurts so bad. Misfortune is life, and it’s rotational; it will surely swing. So wait for your own turn. Allow me to enjoy mine.
“Singing Karma Karma. Does karma visit innocent person? Someone whose heart is pure and not ridden with evil? Hell No!
“Thief stole my goods then it’s my Karma because I chose to mind my business. The real karma is coming to you for being evil and vile towards people.
“I blocked May because you wouldn’t let me like her pictures in peace. And she seems to enjoy the toxicity! So that pisses me off! As she cannot tell you to stop.”

‘Did I flaunt your wife?’ — Yul Edochie fumes after brother’s advice
Yul Edochie, the Nollywood actor, appears to have responded to advice from his brother Linc over his constant online display of his second wife Judy Austin.
Yul unveiled Judy as his second wife in April 2022. He also announced their first child together — to the dissatisfaction of May, his first wife.
Linc, in a recent interview on Kanayo O. Kanayo’s podcast, 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,” he said.
In an Instagram post, Yul questioned why people were concerned about his constant display of Judy online, asking if they had paid for his data or if he was posting their wives.
The movie star also rained abusive words at his critics. Although he did not mention names, Yul concluded with a stern warning: “If my post offends you, hug transformer”.
“Ndi keep your marriage off social media kwenu! Ndi ala. You wey hide your marriage inside house, you still no divorce? Your wife no leave you? Psychos,” he wrote.
“Everybody na adviser for social media, your own life go dey scattter, you no fit fix am. But you sabi advise other people. If I post my wife a million times on my page, how it take concern you?
“Na you buy me data or na your wife I post? Idiots. The one wey dey sweet una na to wear black gather for person burial. One minute silence, the person go turn to hero.
“But when that person is alive being happy, his happiness go dey pain una. Thunder fire you. If my post dey offend you, hug transformer.”

‘I’m a daughter of two immigrants,’ Cardi B rants as Elon Musk calls her ‘puppet’
Rapper Cardi B has responded to remarks made by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who recently called her a “puppet” for the Kamala Harris campaign.
Musk shared a clip of Cardi B’s speech on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “Another puppet who can’t even talk without being fed the words. The Kamala campaign has no authenticity or true empathy.”
Cardi B fired back, saying, “I’m not a puppet, Elon. I’m a daughter of two immigrant parents that had to work their ass off to provide for me! I’m a product of welfare, I’m a product of section 8, I’m a product of poverty, and I’m a product of what happens when the system is set up against you… But you don’t know nothing about that. You don’t know not one thing about the American struggle… PS fix my algorithm.”
The exchange comes ahead of the U.S. presidential elections, scheduled for November 5, where Democratic candidate Kamala Harris is set to face Republican candidate Donald Trump.
Though Harris stands poised to potentially become the first Indian American president, a survey by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace suggests she may garner fewer votes from the community than President Joe Biden did in 2020.
In her rally speech, Cardi B spoke passionately about women’s rights, stating: “Just like Kamala Harris, I too have been the underdog, I’ve been underestimated, my success belittled and discredited. Let me tell you something: Women have to work ten times harder, perform ten times better, and still people question us, how we got to the top. I can’t stand a bully, but just like Kamala, I always stand up to one.”
