BBA: Uti Nwachukwu congratulates Dillish, thumbs up Melvin!!


It is no news that popular actor, model and former BBA winner, Uti Nwachukwu canvassed for votes for Melvin Oduah during the just concluded #BBATheChase. But after his friend Melvin failed to pick the top, Uti has come out to congratulate the eventual winner, Dillish while celebrating Melvin for his never say die spirit. Below is what he wrote..

I will still CELEBRATE MELVIN ODUAH! As I said before..his story is so inspirational! 'NEVER GIVE UP' is what I've learned from him! A man is as Worthless as dry bones the minute He stops TRYING! In the Words of Aaliyah : " if at first you don't succeed, Dust yourself off and TRY AGAIN, you can dust it off and TRY AGAIN TRY AGAIN" So let no one be Discouraged.. God has a way of FINALLY compensating his children in ways Far more worth than what we humans are capable of..and HE ALONE shall Take ALL THE GLORY.
He has gone down in History as the BEST BEHAVED BBA HOUSEMATE of ALL TIME. Mark my words:- sit back and watch the amazing OfFERS roll in for him! And before you get all emotional and say it was fixed.. It Wasn't! BBA is arguably the most credible reality show in Africa. There were 3 west Africans in the house which led to massive splitting of votes hence, the bottom 3. So Hey remember we prayed that above all God's perfect will be done. So smile and be happy we got this far.

I’m still legally married to Frank Edoho – Kate Obiang


Cross River born broadcast personality turned actress, Kate Obiang who was formerly married to ‘Who Wants to be a Millionaire’ presenter, Frank Edoho divulged a lot in this interview. To read the full interview click HERE. I just took out the part she talked about her marriage, kids and estranged hubby…
And how are they taking the whole divorce issue?
We are not really divorced. It’s still a work-in-progress kind of thing but we are taking it well. When its time for him to see the children, he does and when its time to return them, he does. On my part, I have carried the children along and make them understand they are not stained because of it. I wouldn’t want them to develop a complex because of it. We didn’t design for these things to happen but they do. Its like people who have lost their parents, they didn’t plan for it but they have to move on. I watch them and I think they are doing pretty okay especially because we talk about it every time there is a reason to.

Comedian Teju Babyface: How my car disgraced me at Psquare’s home


Read below as the popular comedian explains how his car disgraced him at Psquare’s home when he went to invite them for his Teju Babyface Show. Very hilarious…
In the year 2011, when I went to invite Peter and Paul of P-square to invite them to The Teju Babyface Show, they were very nice and quite cool with being on the show. After praising us for doing a good show so far, they escorted me outside.Their mom (of blessed memory) was standing outside with a few friends and she was very warm to me as well. And so, in the sight of all of them (Peter, Paul, Jude, their dancers, mom and family), I entered my battered Honda Accord and started saying a silent prayer; ‘This car please do not disgrace me in the presence of these boys with all their Range Rovers, X6 and Hummer’.
