‘Broken marriage is not always reflection of failure’ — Charly Boy advises AY, wife
Charly Boy, the ace singer and activist, has shared his opinion on the marital crisis of AY Makun, the comedian.
Rumours had circulated that AY and Mabel, his estranged wife, separated amid a brewing marital dispute.
In January, they unfollowed each other on Instagram fueling the controversies. This was after Mabel alleged a threat to her life.
But on Sunday, AY Makun revealed that his 20-year-old marriage is “slipping off” his hands.
AY said he has outgrown entertaining the public with the details of his marital crisis.
The 52-year-old neither disclosed the cause of his dispute with Mabel nor stated that they had officially separated.
However, the comedian admitted that neither of them is completely without fault.
Weighing into the matter on his Instagram page, Charly Boy argued that a “broken marriage is not always a sign of failure but an opportunity for personal growth and self-discovery”.
He also praised the estranged couple for sticking with each other for two decades, adding that “sometimes the most broken marriages produce the strongest individuals”.
“Abegi make una leave AY alone. It is not always true dat a broken marriage is a reflection of failure, but rather an opportunity for growth and self-discovery,” he wrote.
“Sometimes the most broken marriages produce the strongest individuals. 20yrs no bi beans. Una Well done.
“AY, edi ok. It’s unfortunate but shit happens. Who never fuckup raise ur hands.”

Teni under fire for prostrating for IBD Dende (Video)
Teni Apata, the Nigerian singer, has been criticised for her gesture towards Ibrahim Egungbohun, the businessman fondly called IBD Dende, on a plane.
On Friday, the songstress took to X to share a video of herself boarding the same aircraft with IBD Dende.
Upon citing the socialite, Teni prostrated before IBD Dende. She then raised her hands while praising the businessman.
The socialite, however, attempted to prevent Temi from prostrating as he rose to hug the overjoyous singer instead.
The video however triggered a wave of backlash on X where several users accused the singer of “hypocrisy”.
Some users also revisited the incident that took place in October 2022 when Teni was conferred with the member order of the Niger (MON) award at the National Honours Award ceremony.
The singer walked towards Muhammadu Buhari, the then president, and collected her award without any form of genuflection or handshake.
Some social media users had criticised her over what they described as her “discourteous demeanour” before the president.
The latest video has also continued to trigger a chorus of condemnation against the singer.
“We all know what we are doing…. Teni disrespected Buhari like she stands with the masses only to prostrate before IBD Dende,” a user wrote.
“The Teni refused to greet Buhari because he was a bad leader or for whatever reason, is now lying down for IBD Dende. Na wa ooo,” another user wrote.
Here is what some users had to say below:
We all know what we are doing…. Teni disrespected Buhari like she stands with the masses only to prostrate before IBD Dende. The entertainment industry colludes with those holding the country back! Fisayo must be sad right now. https://t.co/IWlqmHcfIV

Is this the same Teni that refused to shake 🤝 hands with Buhari in 2022? Falling down like a pig 🐖 before IBD Dende that has been exposed as the greatest smuggler in Nigeria? Did she even have to video it and post here? Fisayo Soyombo, a youth like u, will be so discouraged https://t.co/s3a0NWNytd

Teni can bow down to kiss the floor for IBD Dende while disrespecting Buhari. You guys are surprised cuz you're missing the point: she's not against corruption if it's her "faves" involved in the largesse.

The case of #Teni the entertainer seen prostrating face down before #IBD #Dende on a plane is truly nauseating. To think that this was the same lady who displayed an act tantamount to showing disdain for the then president Buhari, makes me tongue tied. Further questioning pic.twitter.com/7cBzQnY2Y7

What was Buhari's offence? pic.twitter.com/RU2J1rjH1I
When Teni snubbed Buhari during her award presentation, the country jumped for joy thinking she was protesting against the hardship in the country. “She’s on the side of the people”😂

‘Release my only child’ — mother of singer Gnewzy begs abductors
The mother of Goodnews ‘Gnewzy’ Emuemu, the fast-rising Nigerian singer recently abducted, has pleaded with the kidnappers to free her son.
Gnewzy was abducted along Eklat road in Ughelli, Delta state while heading home from a show.
Eric Many Records, the artiste’s music label, confirmed the abduction, saying Obas9ice, his manager, “narrowly escaped”.
The abductors were said to have contacted Dilly Umenyiora, the record label’s CEO, via mail demanding a $200,000 ransom.
In a now-viral video shared by Obas9ice, Gnewzy’s mum can be seen crying and appealing to his son’s abductors to free him.
The woman lamented that the singer is her only son and should not be hurt.
“I beg. Na the only child wey I get o. I beg o. Make una free this boy for me. I beg. Make dem release my pikin. Oh God make una try release this pikin for me. I beg. Na the only son wey I get. I no get any other one,” she said in Pidgin.
Bright Edafe, the Delta police spokesperson, earlier said that the law enforcement agency is investigating the matter.
The police spokesperson said the command is working to determine if there are any hidden motives behind the abduction.
“We are investigating. You know sometimes you may not know what transpired that led to that. We are looking into it to see if there are any underlying issue that could have led to it for now,” Edafe said.
“It was reported the fast rising singer was abducted.”
