Fashion stylist Teni Oluwo dies at 35
Teni Oluwo, the Nigerian fashion influencer and stylist fondly called Style Territory, has passed away.
Adetoke Oluwo, the stylist’s sister, confirmed her demise via a post on her Instagram page.
It is understood that Teni died on June 3 — although the cause of death was not revealed.
In the lengthy post, Adetoke described Teni as “my pillar of strength” who changed my life positively.
She also expressed grief, adding that “nobody will ever take your place in my heart”.
“Omoteniola you do this one. I thought I was a strong person but I realized you have always been my strength. My pillar of strength. How can I be talking about you in past tense. You must be out of your mind to think you can leave me like this. In this year particularly,” she wrote.
“Why didn’t you leave when we were suffering and hustling up and down in this Lagos. I’d have understood. Why now? When you should be enjoying your life. What will happen to all the trips we had planned and our life goals?
“You are the only reason I worked this hard so you’d be proud of me and so I’d take care of you to pieces as my first child. Well, I know you’re always proud of me either way.
“I used to hear of grief but Teni, you should have waited for me to get back to see you. You thought I wouldn’t be able to take it I’m sure but Teni, my heart is broken. I can’t take this. I can’t feel my heart Teni. You promised me you’d be with me forever. You said you got me for life. How dare you leave me now.
“At just 35years. You must be out of your mind. Who will guide me through life. Who will preach to me? You know I only listen to you. No wonder your last words to me were “never respond in fear”. Temi I can’t keep that promise, better pick your call. I know you don’t like calls but at least message me back and say this is a joke, you are only testing my pain. Teni my heart can’t take this, I’m not strong.
“One thing I know is you have changed my life. You came into this world for that purpose to change my life completely.
“I know you will not want me to cry anymore, I don’t even have tears left right now. I just have questions. I love you forever Omoteniola and nobody will ever take your place in my heart.”
Teni was born in 1989. She was also a writer, fashion journalist and TV producer.
Her work has been recognised globally. She also featured on Vogue Magazine.

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”.

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”.

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.
