JUST IN: JJC Skillz announces split from Funke Akindele

Published

Abdulrasheed Bello, the singer and producer better known as JJC Skillz, has announced his separation from Funke Akindele, the Nollywood filmmaker.

In an Instagram post on Thursday, JJC Skillz said the last two years of their marriage have been difficult, and as such, they have resolved to part ways.

The lovebirds got married in 2016 and welcomed a set of twins in 2018.

In April, JJC Skillz had denied claims that there was crisis in their marriage.

But in his latest post, the singer said the “last two years have been extremely difficult” for them.

He also claimed he tried to address the situation but noted the matter is now “beyond repair.”

“Dear Friends and family I need to let you know that Funke and I have separated. While it lasted we shared a lot of things together and have created 2 beautiful children,” he wrote.

“The last two years have been extremely difficult for us. I know I have tried my best to fix things but I believe it is beyond repair now. 3 months ago and at Funkes insistence I moved out of the house and apart from AMVCA have not been able to get Funke to sit down in an amicable manner to discuss the future of our relationship.

“I’m making this announcement so that the public is clear that we both are pursuing separate lives. We still have issues that need to be addressed such as the custody and wellbeing of our children which is paramount as well as business interests which need to be disentangled but I have no doubt that these will be resolved one way or the other.”

Despite feud, Peter Okoye celebrates Paul on 43rd birthday

Peter ‘Mr P’ Okoye, the Nigerian singer, has celebrated Paul ‘Rudeboy’ Okoye, his twin brother, on their 43rd birthday amid their ongoing feud.

The twin brothers have been in the public eyes since their second fallout in August.

They had their first rift in 2017 which led to the dissolution of Psquare, their music brand. Though they reunited in November 2021, their reconciliation was short-lived.

Paul recently revealed another fallout, accusing Peter of orchestrating his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Peter, however, denied the allegations and accused Jude Okoye, their older brother, of diverting millions of dollars from their joint account into a secret company.

Responding to the accusations, Jude said he had done everything possible, even “sacrificing himself,” to mend the rift between his brothers.

In an Instagram post on Monday, Peter shared several photos showcasing their growth over the years.

He also celebrated their birthday while wishing himself as well as his twin brother more wins.

Wizkid’s group of fans collectively known as “Wizkid FC” are popular for their vehement support for Wizkid and their antagonism toward those considered his rivals.

On November 15, 2024, Ruger released his new song ‘Toma Toma’ featuring Tiwa Savage which she shared on her Instagram page with the caption “Told yall this one is special. The @rugerofficial called and I answered”.

In response, a Wizkid fan said “Dey play, nothing special pass Wizzy hits”.

Daddy Freeze, Akah Nnani clash over Emmanuel Iren

Published

By

Daddy Freeze, the media personality, has reacted to actor Akah Nnani’s call for prayer for him.

The controversy began when Peter Obi, former Anambra governor, urged Nigerians to prioritise work over vigils in order to improve productivity.

Emmanuel Iren, founder of Celebration Church International, opposed Obi’s advice, prompting Freeze to criticize the cleric for defending night vigils and claiming he supported the practice because it is his “source of income”.

In a now-viral video, Nnani described Freeze as a “lost soul” dealing with “church hurt”

The actor also urged Christians to pray for the media personality. Nnani claimed the Holy Spirit instructed him to pray for Freeze.

“This is not a usual video and I believed that I was told to do it and I didn’t want to procrastinate. It happened randomly, I was praying and the holy spirit says pray for Daddy Freeze,” he said.

“It came on my radar couple of days ago when he picked on a pastor I love, care about and I know he is a genuine man of God.

“I could have responded out of anger but I decided not to but in my prayer time the holy spirit just told me to pray for him. I believe as Christians if we pray more for people than attack we would see more results.

“So I’m going to call on every Christians to join me as I pray for Daddy Freeze and everyone dealing with church hurt.”

Freeze responded, arguing that Obi’s opinion on vigils is “valid”. He suggested that Nnani “needs the prayer more”.

The media personality also implied that Iren’s defense of night vigils is “self-serving”.

“Dear Akah, pray for Iren and for yourself. You need it more. Peter Obi made a valid point about night vigils,” he wrote.

“Iren tried defending his enterprise. All Iren’s boys are now running kata kiti trying to defend the indefensible.”
