‘Lady who admitted to sleeping with dogs on my podcast committed suicide’ — Biola Adebayo cries out

Published

Biola Adebayo, the Nollywood actress, says a recent guest on her podcast has “committed suicide”.

The film star recently published an interview on her YouTube channel where she interviewed a lady identified as Nike.

During the interview, the lady recalled her ugly past experiences — including sexual molestation as a teenager.

She, however, came under criticism on social media after a video of the interview where she admitted that she slept with two dogs to satisfy her sexual urges went viral.

On Saturday, Biola took to her Instagram page to reveal that she got a message from a friend of the deceased, saying she had “committed suicide”.

Biola said she had shared the deceased’s number with some therapists to assist her. The actress also suggested that the criticism she received after her confession might have contributed to her death.

“For the first time in my life, I feel like a failure. Nike died. The lady I just interviewed who said she slept with dogs committed suicide. People heard her story. Some people abused me. They said we formulated the story that they are not real. I gave her a listening ear, but she did not tell me she was going to die,” she said.

“She committed suicide immediately after she came. I sent her number to people to be calling her. I did not know she died. She is late. She committed suicide. That child has killed herself.”

The deceased was said to have left a note wherein she appreciated the actress for listening to her story.

“This is The Note I Got From Her Friend. She did not wait to see the interview. She did not wait to see all the online bullies,” Biola wrote in another post while sharing a copy of it.

“Good day ma, my name is Folorunsho. I am Nike friend, am sorry I was only playing along with some messages on Nike phone, Nike died three days ago but as a friend I wanted to know why Nike poisoned herself so I decided to play along with some of her messages maybe I could get an hint,” the note reads.

“So this evening I was in her room packing her stuff because her sister is coming to pack them tomorrow then I saw her dairy, so she has message for you that is why I decided to let you know what is happening.”

Burna Boy, the Afrofusion singer, has addressed his critics, revealing why he no longer takes a hard approach to situations.

In a recent post on his Instastory, the Grammy winner expressed frustration at being criticised for reacting to issues, while his attackers go unchecked.

The 33-year-old singer wondered why people quickly condemn him for speaking out but show no concern when he’s the victim of an attack.

Burna Boy implied that his critics should consider themselves lucky, saying, “I have too much to lose now”.

The hitmaker also warned his critics not to mistake his silence for weakness.

“When they talk nobody cares, but when I react it’s a Nuclear disaster,” he wrote. “Y’all don’t know how lucky you are that I have too much to lose now, Walahi a lot of you would not be here no more. Anyway make I just go buy another thing to relax.

“Bundle by bundle! No sign of weakness!”

Jason Derulo, the American singer, says he earns more from his car washing business than music.

Derulo, who owns a car wash business called Rocket CarWash, shared in an interview that the venture has become more profitable than his music career.

He said he did not expect the business to be so successful, especially since he has never advertised it.

He added that Rocket CarWash is a unique glass-walled facility where customers can watch the car washing process as if it were a show.

“It’s true that I make more money from my car washing business than my music. It’s pretty crazy. It’s something that I didn’t expect at all. I got into it, I thought that it would be good but I didn’t think that was going to be a life-changing event,” he said.

“You know what’s crazy? I have never even advertised my car washing business. It’s pretty amazing. It’s a super car wash. It’s not like the ones you’re probably used to. It’s all glass so when your car is being washed, everybody can see the action. It’s like a show.”

Derulo is best known for hits like ‘Whatcha Say’, ‘Talk Dirty’, and ‘Savage Love’.
