Influencer Solomon Buchi faces backlash after talk linking Boko Haram to Islam
Solomon Buchi, the relationship influencer, is facing backlash after his comment linking Boko Haram to Islam.
This criticism follows the recent attack in Plateau state that claimed over 160 lives on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
Buchi alleged that the killings in the Middle Belt and Northern Nigeria are affiliated with “Islamic terrorist groups”.
“But they are also killing Muslims in northern/middle belt Nigeria. It is not only Christians,” he wrote.
“Who is killing them? Who? Islamic groups! Okay, mention one Christian group mass killing Northern Muslims. Will you?
“The killings of Northern/Middle Belt Christians that affect Muslims are not done by RCCG or Winner Chapel members.
“It is perpetuated by Islamic terrorist groups.”
His comment has sparked criticism on X, with users accusing him of not having enough knowledge of Islam and inciting violence.
“Ok, Solomon Buchi is an IPOB terrorist. It is clear now,” a user claimed.
“But for him to say Boko Haram guys are Muslims? That is 99% stupidity. Why? I do not think he understands how this country works (in terms of security),” another wrote.

Whether Solomon Buchi and his bigoted brethren like it or not, NOBODY can change the Sharia law in northern Nigeria. If you don't like it, don't come!

We need to sit up now, more than ever, especially that self confessions from people like @Solomon_Buchi on how his father has planted hatred of Northern Muslims in his heart from when he was a child, continue to resurface.
There is a syndicate of child traffickers… pic.twitter.com/p8Si30k1E2

Chris Brown opens up on dating multiple ladies
Chris Brown, the American singer, has revealed that he is in a polygamous relationship.
Brown, in a YouTube live with Kai Cenat, the US content creator, addressed questions about his personal life.
When asked if he was in a relationship, the 35-year-old Virginia-born artiste replied, “I am in multiple”.
Cenat sought clarification, asking, “Like more than one girlfriend?” Brown responded, “Something like that”.
The award-winning singer also emphasized the importance of transparency and honesty in maintaining his polygamous relationships.
“Just keep it a hundred. Be honest,” he added.
This is not the first time Brown would be addressing polygamy.
In an interview with Hot 97, the singer opened up about the challenges of maintaining a monogamous relationship due to his celebrity status and constant exposure to women.
“The hardest part is trying to keep a monogamous relationship, but still wanting to be the 25-year-old sex symbol,” he said.
“You go to shows. You might walk by somebody’s room, and you might see about six or seven of them thangs. And you’re like, dang, I just want to slide in there and have a couple drinks real quick and I’ll tell my girl about it later.”
Born Christopher Maurice Brown, the songwriter is often referred to by his contemporaries as the “king of R&B”.

“Who gave birth to such a child? Useless children, may God keep them away from us.
“Please disregard any message from anyone, either in your DM or WhatsApp, asking you to send money.

Davido advises black Americans not to relocate to Nigeria, says ‘the economy is in shambles’
Davido, the Afrobeats star, has advised black Americans against relocating to Nigeria, citing the country’s economic challenges.
In an appearance on The Big Homies House podcast, the singer shared his thoughts on the struggles bedeviling Nigeria, stating, “It is not cool back home. The economy is in shambles”.
Davido also mentioned Nigeria’s struggles with bad leadership, a high exchange rate, and skyrocketing oil prices, which are negatively impacting the country.
“It is not cool back home. The economy is in shambles. I do my part, I am an ambassador. When I go home and I am filming, I am no going to show the bad parts,” he said.
“I am talking about the situation in the country. Now the exchange rate is messed up, a lot of stuffs are not going well.
“The economy is just not good enough. The oil price is too high. Imagine the country that produces oil, paying more for it than a country importing oil.”
Despite the challenges, Davido emphasised the entertainment industry’s positive impact on Africa’s global image.
“Regardless, entertainment is one of the thing that has made Africa look good. We do not have the best leader, that is a fact,” he said.
