Nollywood veteran Ibironke Ojo-Anthony, popularly known as Ronke Oshodi Oke has opened up about her incredible weight loss journey which had people asking ‘how’?

The stellar actress spilled the tea about how she was able to go from 110kg down to 87kg during her interview with popular media personality Chude Jideonwo.

She detailed her experience noting that her journey started after visiting her daughter in the UK, where she was told by her medical practitioner that she needed to lose weight.

She said, “It was my doctor who said I should lose weight. I was 110 then, and he said I should lose weight to about 75. I was like ‘eleyi po ke’. But he said I should lose weight. So later on, I was just doing my thing but I started having some small small sickness, BP and stuff like that. So I just said, ok, let me start doing this thing.”

Ronke, under the supervision of her medical doctor, began her weight loss journey and was able to go down to 82kg, but she felt that she was too slender. Afterward, she switched from the remedy called ‘Speedy Weight loss’ to another called ‘Fat surrender’, which she confessed helped her better.

“Now I’m between 86 and 87,” she added proudly.

Going on, she vouched for the weight loss medications, emphasising that they work and aren’t fake. However, she urged anyone intending to use them to do so properly.

She warned them saying, “It does work but you would know how to use it. Because if you use it too much, it may affect your liver, like if you don’t know how to use it. That is why if anybody wants to use it, If they want to buy, I will tell them, ‘if you want to buy, you have to eat’ It is very very important to eat. You have to eat because of the strength. If they listen to my advice, it will surely work for them.”

The movie star also debunked the rumours that she augmented the size of her breasts, clarifying that they only look smaller because she lose weight.

This all stems from the year 2021, when Ronke trended across social media after posting her pictures online, sparking concern among her fans because she was noticeably thinner. Many speculated that she was suffering from an undisclosed ailment.

She has now laid the rumours to rest and is letting everyone know that she is hale and hearty.

Speed Darlington, the Nigerian rapper, has been granted bail after nearly a month in police custody.

The rapper was arrested on November 27 while performing at a show in Owerri, Imo state.

Deji Adeyanju, a human rights lawyer, had alleged that Burna Boy, the Afrofusion star, was responsible for the rapper’s arrest.

Darlington had taunted Burna Boy over his affiliation with the embattled US rapper Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’ who is facing multiple charges for sexual exploitation and human trafficking.

He asked Burna Boy to explain how he won the Grammy award for his album ‘Twice As Tall’ — a project executive produced by Diddy. He claimed there was a sexual relationship between the duo.

Stan Alieke, the legal representative of Darlington, earlier revealed that weeks after the rapper’s arrest, the police had denied him access to bail.

The lawyer also called on the law enforcement agency not to “trample on my client’s constitutional rights”.

But in an Instagram post on Monday, Alieke disclosed that his client had been granted bail.

“Apki has been granted bail by the court,” he wrote without including much information.
