Gbenga Adeboye

Entertainer & Broadcaster

Renowned for his sharp wit, cultural intelligence, and fearless social commentary, he used humor not just to entertain, but to educate, critique, and preserve Yoruba oral traditions.

He was a founding member of the Freelance and Independent Broadcasters’ Association of Nigeria, an independent corporate body established to uphold professionalism, creativity, and ethical standards among qualified broadcasters outside government-controlled media.

Troops Eliminate Top Boko Haram/ISWAP Commander Abu Khalid In Sambisa Forest

Nigerian troops under the Joint Task Force (North East), Operation Hadin Kai, have killed a senior Boko Haram/ISWAP commander, Abu Khalid, during a night offensive in Sambisa Forest, Borno State.

Military authorities confirmed that Khalid served as the group’s second-in-command within the Sambisa axis. He was neutralised alongside 10 other fighters during the coordinated operation.

The Theatre Command’s Media Information Officer, Lieutenant-Colonel Sani Uba, disclosed the development in a statement on Sunday, noting that the success came less than 24 hours after troops eliminated another notorious commander, Julaibib, operating around the Gujba area of the Timbuktu Triangle.

According to Uba, soldiers from Sector 1, working closely with members of the Civilian Joint Task Force (CJTF) under Operation Desert Sanity, engaged the terrorists at the Komala general area in Konduga Local Government Area at about 11 p.m., leading to the deaths of the insurgents.

The military said the continued offensives are part of ongoing efforts to dismantle terrorist strongholds and restore security across the North-East.

Oga ooo… I am deeply disappointed,” Dr. Kemi Olunloyo said emotionally.

She expressed shock and disappointment at Dr. Adedeji Adeleke for publicly referring to her—an investigative journalist—as a mad woman.

According to her, she expected Dr. Adeleke to address serious unresolved issues, including what truly caused the death of Davido’s mother and the circumstances surrounding the deaths of some of Davido’s close friends. Instead, she said he chose to hold a press conference to insult her and deny the existence of his alleged biological granddaughter.

Dr. Kemi stated that the denial was based on claims that Ayo, Anu’s mother, is a prostitute—an allegation she strongly condemned.

She explained that her passion for Anu comes from a place of concern, saying she does not want the child to suffer or be abandoned.

Dr. Kemi further revealed that she was the one who initially opened Anu’s Instagram page to create awareness after Davido allegedly attempted to silence the girl’s family. She said she later handed over control of the account to Anu’s mother. Now 13 years old, Anu, she said, only wants to be acknowledged and treated as one of the Adeleke daughters.

Addressing another controversy, Dr. Kemi clarified that her own son never denied her on social media, explaining that individuals impersonating him online were actually her cousins.

She concluded by vowing to continue fighting for Anu until the Adeleke family acknowledges the child, insisting that Anu does not deserve the hardship she is currently facing.

Dr. Kemi Olunloyo reportedly broke down in tears while sharing her side of the ongoing Anu vs. the Adeleke family controversy.
