Blessing CEO addresses rumoured relationship with IVD
Blessing CEO, the media personality, has reacted to rumours that she is dating IVD, the widowed businessman.
IVD has been enmeshed in a series of allegations since his wife passed away in October.
Mama Jazz, the sister to his wife, had accused the Lagos-based businessman of killing her.
Over the weekend, Blessing CEO was said to have put out a social media post that stirred allegations that she’s now dating IVD.
The post attributed to the media personality bore a picture showing a hand purported to belong to IVD — tattooed with her name.
“Never been so bold as to post any man on my timeline on social media. But I don’t know why you seem so right. Mixed feelings (fear and excitement). I thought my feelings had died with my past,” she was said to have written.
“But you came and made it easy and effortless for me to bend almost all my rules and open all my boundaries.
“You are strong because so many MEN tried even with money, but I did not bend, but you came and did nothing and I have tumbled and fallen for you.”
The post had triggered a wave of reactions on social media.
In footage from her recent interview, Blessing didn’t do much to shush the claims but argued she has the right to date any man of her choice.
“Some said they came to check out my disgrace,” she said.
“A lot of you forget I’m that girl you dragged three years ago; who was handcuffed and paraded on the internet.
“The difference is that I’ve started living on money. My skin has begun to glow. The disgrace didn’t start today. The disgrace is the brand. We built a brand from the mud. I’m that girl who trended for lying about a house.
“That same one you came to drag three years ago. After all that, she still grew above you and is still better than you.
“After three years, Blessing CEO is still relevant. So when you say you’re coming on my live video to disgrace me, I wonder if you have a short memory. As you drag me, I get more successful and famous.
“Stop using dragging to threaten me because I grew from that. Maybe when you start talking to me in a nicer way, I will start listening to your cry. Somebody asked if I’m doing IVD, what do you mean by that?”
In another video, the Instagram blogger said she does not owe anyone an explanation on the kind of relationship she has with IVD.
“Do you think even if I have something with IVD it’s supposed to be a public affair? It’s my private life,” she said.
“When you are a public figure, people want to go into your privacy.
“I don’t owe the public that explanation whether it’s IVD or it’s anybody, I don’t owe the public my private life, I only owe the public content. I’m not supposed to put out my private life in public.”

Plantashun Boiz attempted reunions failed because I wasn’t invited, says Blackface
Blackface, the Nigerian dancehall singer, says Plantashun Boiz, a defunct music group, multiple attempts to reunite failed because he was not included.
Formed in 2000 with 2Baba and Faze, Plantashun Boiz disbanded in 2004 but briefly reunited in 2007 for an album.
In a recent episode of the ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ podcast, the host asked Blackface if there was any chance that the group might come back together.
The singer disclosed that his colleagues had attempted to reunite without him but were unsuccessful.
“Without me, they have tried and they have failed. Many times. You saw them in all those shows that they were going,” he said.
“They tried but they failed. But what I must say is I’m the plantation. So let it be known. Forget the fake memo that they spread before.”
In September, Blackface called for the reunion of the defunct music group.
He urged fans to join the mission, emphasising that “unity is strength, not division”.
“My people oya make una talk put mouth for this matter! We are on a mission for world peace and it’s not a small-time thing,” he said in pidgin English.
Since 2015, Blackface constantly tackled 2Baba for recording 2004 hit ‘African Queen’ which he claimed he wrote.
In 2017, he argued that 2Baba “sabotaged” his career in the music industry.

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.

Tiwa Savage calls out Wizkid fan for bullying
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.
Tiwa Savage is the latest artist to call out Wizkid FC for harassment after some members of the fanbase mocked her for releasing a song on the same day as Wizkid.
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”.
The reply rubbed off wrongly on Tiwa Savage who said “Because I am promoting music? WTF…y’all are not fans anymore ooo you guys are actual bullies”.
