Destiny Boy’s Childhood Friend FINALLY Speaks — Shocking Details About What Led to His Death

Destiny Boy’s childhood friend, Big_Badda, has finally broken his silence and revealed what he claims led to the late singer’s tragic death.

According to him, he has not been himself since receiving the heartbreaking distress call. The pain in his heart became too heavy, and he felt forced to speak his truth.

He recalled that in early 2020, Destiny Boy visited his home in Lagos and opened up about his strong desire to rise fast in the music industry and gain global fame, even surpassing top stars like Davido, Wizkid, and Olamide. Big_Badda said he advised him to be patient and trust God’s timing, reminding him that success achieved the right way lasts longer.

Sadly, Destiny Boy reportedly said he could no longer wait. Big_Badda admitted that as a close friend, he failed him. Instead of standing firm in his advice, he allowed himself to be carried away by Destiny Boy’s desperation and ambition.

He revealed that Destiny Boy mentioned knowing a “baba” in Ogun State. According to him, they all agreed to follow Destiny Boy to meet the man, popularly known as Ikudaisi Osha, in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State. The baba allegedly agreed to perform a fame ritual and reportedly said Destiny Boy would be famous for five years, known worldwide, with his songs streamed globally.

However, Big_Badda claimed that the consequences of the ritual were never explained to them.

Tragically, he said he was later shocked when a close friend, singer Bolisco, called him early one morning to inform him that Destiny Boy was vomiting blood. He rushed to his house immediately, but sadly, before he arrived, Destiny Boy had already passed away.

He ended by praying that Destiny Boy’s soul rests in perfect peace and that God, in His mercy, forgives him and grants him eternal rest in paradise

Why Are Nigerian Nurses Being Forced to Do Cleaners’ Jobs? Are Hospital CMDs Exploiting Strikes to Intimidate Health Workers Across the Country?

A growing controversy is shaking Nigeria’s healthcare sector after the Elegant Nurses Forum accused hospital managements across the country of forcing nurses to perform cleaning and other menial duties, a practice the group describes as unethical, unlawful, and professionally degrading.

In a press statement signed by Nurse Thomas Abiodun Olamide, the forum said it had received multiple complaints from health institutions nationwide, alleging that some Chief Medical Directors (CMDs) are exploiting the ongoing strike by hospital cleaners under the Joint Health Sector Unions (JOHESU) to compel nurses to take over sanitation work.

According to the forum, this practice violates professional ethics, international best practices, and the legal framework governing nursing in Nigeria. It warned that compelling nurses to abandon clinical responsibilities for cleaning duties not only demeans the profession but also endangers patient safety and healthcare quality.

The group disclosed that over ten days ago, nurses at the Federal Medical Centre (FMC), Makurdi, Benue State, formally complained of threats and coercion to assume cleaners’ duties. Similar complaints were later received from the Olabisi Onabanjo University Teaching Hospital (OOUTH), Sagamu, Ogun State, along with reports from other tertiary and secondary health facilities nationwide.

The forum expressed particular concern over the leadership at OOUTH, alleging a persistent pattern of intimidation and harassment of nurses by the hospital’s CMD. According to the statement, nurses were reportedly threatened with job loss, with allegations that political connections were being used to exert pressure. The forum described this as a gross abuse of office, questioning the competence, temperament, and ethical standing of such leadership.

It further alleged that political interference rather than merit has influenced some CMD appointments, warning that hospitals were being transformed into “tools of oppression” instead of institutions dedicated to patient-centred care.

Emphasising the professional role of nurses, the forum stated that nurses are trained healthcare practitioners whose duties include patient care, disease prevention, health promotion, and clinical management—not sanitation. Forcing them into menial tasks, it said, devalues their expertise, undermines healthcare delivery, and weakens the entire system.

In its demands, the Elegant Nurses Forum called for:

Immediate cessation of all intimidation, threats, and coercion of nurses into non-nursing duties;

Clear directives from federal and state health ministries prohibiting the assignment of cleaning or other unrelated tasks to nurses;

Independent investigations and disciplinary action against erring CMDs and administrators;

Protection of nurses from victimisation and harassment; and

Transparent, merit-based appointments to hospital leadership positions free from political interference.


The forum vowed it would not remain silent while nurses are treated as expendable labour and stripped of their professional identity. “Healthcare leadership must be about service, competence, and accountability—not intimidation, arrogance, and abuse of power,” the statement concluded.

As the allegations spread across multiple states, the central question remains: are hospital authorities protecting patient care—or sacrificing professionalism for power?

Nigerian Nurses Forum Condemns Alleged Quack Nursing Training at Elshaddai Clinic in Ogun, Demands Closure and Prosecution

The Elegant Nurses Forum has strongly condemned the alleged illegal training, graduation, and public parade of unqualified individuals as nurses at Elshaddai Clinic in Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State. In a statement signed by Nurse Thomas Abiodun Olamide, the forum described the act as blatant quackery that endangers public health and violates professional nursing standards. The group accused the Ogun State Ministry of Health of regulatory failure and blamed the APC-led state government for allowing the practice to thrive. It demanded the immediate closure of the clinic’s illegal operations, arrest and prosecution of those involved, public identification of the fake nurses, and disciplinary action against complicit officials, warning that patient safety and lives are at serious risk.

“Seyi Tinubu Didn’t Add My Video Because of My English!” — Lege Miami Speaks Out on Birthday Tribute Snub


Popular Nigerian actor and matchmaker, Lege Miami, whose real name is Adams Kehinde, has finally addressed his absence from the viral birthday tribute video made for Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

The trending tribute, which featured some of Nigeria’s biggest personalities — including Burna Boy, Femi Otedola, Aliko Dangote, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and Olamide Badoo — left fans wondering why Lege, a self-proclaimed close associate of Seyi, was not included.

Many social media users teased Lege Miami over the omission, prompting the actor to respond. In a new video, Lege revealed that his “poor English” was the reason his clip didn’t make it into the final cut.

“Because I cannot speak good English, Seyi did not add my video to the post,” he said jokingly, adding that people should not blame Seyi for the decision.


However, reactions flooded social media, with some fans disagreeing with Lege’s explanation.

@mz_lara commented:

“I don’t think it’s because you can’t speak English. Even market women and Amala sellers spoke Yoruba in the video. You need to stop being controversial; that’s why people avoid associating with you.”



@kenny_alert added:

“Your problem is not bad English but low self-esteem. Let that go, and you’ll realize you’re fine the way you are.”



While some mocked his grammar — quoting his line “Seyi is not added my video” — others defended him, calling him a loyal friend who always stands by Seyi Tinubu.

One fan wrote:

“A true friend will love you no matter how dull you are. Seyi should appreciate Lege — he’s always had his back.”

Despite the teasing, Lege Miami took the criticism in stride, laughing off the remarks and keeping his trademark humor alive.

Court Jails 4 Internet Fraudsters In Lagos.

Four young men who turned a Lagos hotel into a hub for online scams have been imprisoned by the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, which found them guilty of internet fraud.

In his verdict, Justice Dehinde Dipeolu, convicted Martins Emmanuel, Abeeb Olamide Asiru, Iremide Owolabi and Quadri Abdulrasheed Adio on charges of impersonation and online fraud.

A statement on the official Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) X handle said the quartet were arrested on August 29, 2025, when its operatives raided Mambillah Hotel in Ikorodu.

The sting operation followed intelligence that the premises were being used as a base by a syndicate of internet fraudsters.

Mobile phones and fraudulent documents were recovered from the suspects and tendered in court as evidence. After reviewing their confessional statements and the forensic analysis of their devices, the judge ruled that the EFCC had proved its case beyond a reasonable doubt.

U.S. Prosecutors Arraign Lagos Big Boy Extradited for $2m Sextortion, Wire Fraud, Others

U.S. authorities have begun the prosecution of Olamide Shanu, a 34-year-old Nigerian extradited from the United Kingdom over alleged sextortion and wire fraud schemes that netted him at least $2 million.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DoJ) announced on Thursday that Shanu made his first court appearance before Magistrate Judge Debora K. Grasham after arriving in the United States.

He faces an eight-count indictment, including charges of wire fraud conspiracy, aggravated identity theft, money laundering conspiracy, extortion, interstate communications with intent to extort, and cyberstalking. 

If convicted, he could face up to 20 years in federal prison, in addition to restitution to victims.
According to prosecutors, Shanu and his accomplices posed as women on social media to lure men into sharing explicit photos. Once obtained, the images were used to blackmail the victims, including a college student in Idaho, by threatening to expose them unless payments were made.

Investigators allege Shanu laundered over $2 million through peer-to-peer payment apps and cryptocurrency wallets before funneling the funds to co-conspirators in Nigeria.

Court filings from 2023 revealed that U.S. Secret Service agents had seized his Binance account, linking it to a $2.5 million sextortion, wire fraud, and money laundering scheme.

BBNaija Faces Legal Threat As Lawyer Petitions NBC, Demands Ban Or Regulation Within 30 Days.

Activist lawyer Maduabuchi Idam has petitioned the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), calling for an immediate ban or strict regulation of the ongoing Big Brother Naija (BBNaija) reality show.

He described the programme as ob+cene, indecent, and prof@ne, and gave the commission 30 days to act or face legal action. In the petition addressed to NBC’s Director General and titled “Urgent need to ban or regulate the content of the television programme described as ‘Big Brother Naija’ for ob+cene, indecent, and prof@ne content, pursuant to the NBC Act 1999,” Idam accused the show of airing real-time explicit and pornographic content freely on television and social media.

“The show is not only aired on national TV but its profane content is proudly shared on the verified social media handles of the host company, in total disregard for public morality,” he stated.

He questioned why NBC, which had previously banned or sanctioned music videos by Olamide, Phyno, Wizkid, and others for similar reasons, has remained silent about BBNaija’s content.

Although BBNaija is rated 18+, Idam said this rating is insufficient because the show’s content is still easily accessible to underage viewers and the general public, especially via social media. He argued that the programme contributes nothing of educational, artistic, scientific, or literary value and blamed it for undermining public decency and morality.

Idam urged the NBC to restrict the show to highly regulated channels reserved for adult audiences and to prohibit the distribution of expl+cit clips by the host company online. He stressed that Nigeria, already struggling with insecurity and other social vices, cannot afford the moral damage caused by such unregulated content.

“The NBC must act now to prevent further erosion of our societal values,” he warned, threatening legal action if no action is taken within 30 days.

I used to eat Amala, but it makes me bloated all day — Olamide says as he reveals he prefers broccoli and light food in general.

Brief: ‘Let’s Face 2027 Elections’ — Charly Boy Shrugs Off Bus Stop Renaming.

Musician and activist Charles Oputa, aka Charly Boy, has downplayed the renaming of the Charly Boy Bus Stop in Gbagada, Lagos, urging Nigerians to focus instead on the 2027 general elections.

Speaking on The Morning Brief, he said the gesture was not a priority, stressing that recognition should go to anyone who has served their community — including new honoree, music star Olamide.

Charly Boy, who once lived in Gbagada and contributed to the area, said the bus stop was originally named after him in the early 1990s. However, he insisted that national issues, especially political accountability and credible elections, matter more than symbolic name changes.

He warned Nigerians not to support leaders who serve personal interests and called for a people-focused, honest, and self-reliance-driven leadership in 2027.

"You Can Change the Signboard, Not the Legacy!" — Charly Boy Blasts Renaming of Iconic Lagos Bus Stop


Veteran entertainer and activist Charly Boy (Area Fada) is calling out the Bariga LCDA after his namesake bus stop was renamed in honour of music star Olamide Badoo.

While Bariga LCDA Chairman Kolade David says the change celebrates global icons from the area, Charly Boy sees it as a politically driven erasure attempt.

"You can replace a signboard but not a spirit... The name Charly Boy was given by the people, not politicians," he declared on X.

He slammed the move as a fear-driven act meant to bury his activist legacy — one that shook tables and empowered communities.

"Legacy lives in the hearts you’ve changed, not the street signs you alter."
