Tonto Dikeh Accuses Mohbad’s Father Of Charging Money For Interviews About Son’s Death
Nollywood actress, Tonto Dikeh, is not pleased with Mohad’s father and has had a lot to say about him in an open letter via her new post.
Dikeh posted a picture of the late singer Ilerioluwa Aloba, aka Mohbad, on her Instagram on Thursday November 30, 2023, and addressed his father. She fully expressed her displeasure with what she deemed as his focus on wealth, rather than attaining justice for his late child. She condemned the hasty burial of the singer, which took place the very next day after his passing, an action which led to a public outcry by Nigerians back in September 2023.
Her post began, “I can empathise with the harsh realities of poor condition, but when it involves your own flesh and blood, your son, it’s truly heartbreaking. How is it that material things or wealth seems to outweigh the love for your own child? The hurried and undignified burial of our dear Mohbad within a mere 24 hours of his supposed passing, compounded by insufficient arrangements due to financial constraints after getting a whooping sum of 2million Naira, is deeply distressing considering his status. Need I remind you of the shameless, senseless and inhumane way mob’s neck was broken?”
Going on, she condemned his consistent cry for a DNA test to be conducted on Mohbad’s infant son Liam, alleging that his interest in the boy’s paternity only grew after contributions were being put in the boy’s bank account. Dikeh reminded him that Wunmi was his son’s wife, his current widow and he ought to go to her with his DNA demands.
Prince Harry, Meghan Markle ‘Would Still Be In The U.K.’ If Prince William Spoke Out About Racist Media Coverage, ‘Endgame’ Author Omid Scobie Says
Royal correspondent Omid Scobie’s latest book, ‘Endgame’, offers a glimpse inside one of the world’s most famous families — and he’s holding “nothing back.” A recent exposé on the royal family illuminates an alleged coordinated effort by high-ranking Buckingham Palace officials — with the tacit approval of certain royal family members — to smear Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the British press in exchange for positive coverage about Prince William and Kate Middleton.
The circumstances led to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision to “step away” from their royal duties for good in February 2021, Omid Scobie, author of the new royal tell-all Endgame, tells Yahoo Entertainment in a new interview.
“I saw this for what it was, which was a mixed-race woman who was largely left unprotected and not defended or helped,” Scobie says. “Regardless of whether you like Meghan or not, she was still a human being and one that should have been treated as an equal to the people around her, but consistently wasn’t.”
Eddie Murphy Speaks To Jimmy Kimmel ‘Surreal’ Life In Hollywood
He may not look like it, but Eddie Murphy has lived a lifetime in Hollywood, and during his interview on Wednesday’s Jimmy Kimmel Live! he offered up just a small sampling of some of the things he’s seen through the years.
Whether it was calling out Richard Pryor over a bet in the liner notes of his album or hosting an event for Sammy Davis Jr. in 1990 that was filled with the most famous — and random — people you could imagine, Murphy had plenty to talk about with Kimmel.
At one point during the interview Kimmel pulled out Murphy’s 1985 music album How Could It Be, which featured his Rick James-produced top ten single, “Party All the Time.” But what Kimmel found to be interesting was a few things written in the liner notes, which he read:
“Special thanks to Michael Jackson and Prince, simply because it’s hip to have your names on my album.”
Naturally Kimmel asked Murphy about the bet and got the lowdown. It turns out when Pryor found out that Murphy wanted to do an album with strictly music — as opposed to the comedy angle he was already a proven star at — Pryor didn’t believe that he would do it, so Murphy bet him $100K.
Rema Announces Suspension Of December Gig
Popular Nigerian musician, Divine Ikubor, popular as Rema, has announced the suspension of his shows scheduled for December.
Rema who had earlier planned to tour the cities of Lagos, Abuja, and Benin stated that his health would not permit him to do as scheduled.
Sharing the development on his Instagram story, the ‘Calm Down’ crooner expressed sadness over the situation.
He further revealed that he had neglected his health in several years of touring and needed time to rebound. The singer, however, assured of resuming his usual activities in 2024.
“It breaks my heart to say that I won’t be performing anywhere this December. Been years of touring, I’ve ignored my health and I need time to recuperate. 2024, we go again, love,” Rema wrote.
