BBNaija Season 8: First Nominations
Remember that Big Brother Naija Season 8 commenced on July 23, featuring an all-star cast of 20 housemates. There was an array of tension and surprises as the first round of nominations unfolded. Angel, Doyin, Ilebaye, Princess and Tolanibaj joined forces to ally, aiming to nominate Venita for eviction.

However, the alliance faced a twist when Ilebaye deviated from the pact and nominated Tolanibaj instead. Meanwhile, Angel decided to put Seyi’s name forward for eviction. To no one’s surprise, Venita received the highest number of nominations, accumulating four in total, tying with Princess. This season’s nomination process diverged from the norm, as housemates were instructed to nominate only one person for possible eviction, as opposed to the usual two.

Davido Fulfills His Promise, Surprises Woman With $10,000 Gift
Davido has upheld his promise to Mrs. Kekwaaru Ngozi, a staff member of Eko Hotel and Suites, who displayed honesty by returning misplaced money. The announcement of this gesture followed a generous donation of over N273 million to his David Adeleke Foundation from a woman. In a video, the woman prayed in the name of Jesus Christ, declaring that anyone attempting to harm her would meet their end. This prayer was in response to Davido’s pledge of $10,000 to the woman who returned the $70,000.

Amidst the ongoing criticism of his recent video, where he was accused of misrepresenting the Muslim faithful, Davido has not issued a response to Ali Nuhu’s allegations. Despite the virtual backlash, the woman remained steadfast in her prayers, confidently asserting that nothing would harm her, as she believed that powerful forces were supporting and protecting her.

Grammy-Winner Tori Kelly Is hospitalised
Grammy-winning singer, Tori Kelly, was rushed to the hospital in downtown Los Angeles after collapsing. Doctors have identified blood clots in her legs and lungs and are currently investigating the possibility of clots around her heart, given her abnormally fast heartbeat during dinner when she fell unconscious.

She was promptly taken to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in West Hollywood, and her condition is being treated as ‘serious’ owing to the potentially life-threatening nature of blood clots. Medical professionals are diligently working to dissolve the clots and prevent their recurrence while carefully monitoring her heart function and vital signs. Tori Kelly, renowned for her soulful voice and relatable lyrics, has an impressive collection of awards, including two Grammy Awards for Best Gospel Album and Best Gospel Performance/Song.
