Popular Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has expressed regret over her earlier push for the exhumation of the late singer Mohbad.

In an emotional interview on the 'Talk to B' podcast with Biola Bayo, Iyabo admitted that she didn't foresee the complications that followed the request. She shared her sorrow over the delays in Mohbad's burial and the ongoing disputes within his family.

“I wouldn’t have asked for Mohbad to be exhumed if I had known things would turn out like this," she said. "He hasn’t even been buried yet. His father wants a DNA test, and I hear the court has granted it, though there are new conditions.”

She continued, “I only wanted the exhumation so they could perform an autopsy to determine the cause of his death. I did my best to ensure a thorough investigation, but when new theories came up, DNA became their priority.”

Mohbad passed away on September 12, 2023, under mysterious circumstances and was buried the following day. However, the Lagos State Police exhumed his body on September 21 for an autopsy.

In October 2023, Mohbad's father, Joseph Aloba, made it clear that the singer would not be reburied until a DNA test was conducted on his son Liam.

Social media influencer Pascal Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, has pledged to secure the release of musician Speed Darlington from police custody, taking another jab at Afrofusion star Burna Boy in the process.

Speed Darlington has reportedly been detained for nearly two months after being arrested by the Imo State Police Command shortly upon his return from the United States in November. His arrest stems from allegedly jumping bail in a case involving Burna Boy.

The musician is accused of defamation and cyberstalking Burna Boy, following a social media post where he claimed that Burna Boy’s relationship with renowned music producer Diddy played a role in his 2021 Grammy Award win.

Taking to Instagram, Cubana Chief Priest vowed to take action to free Speed Darlington.

“Tomorrow, we come for Akpi Nwamama…Monday is now here. Make we now show power,” he posted, signaling his intention to intervene in the matter.

It’s in total submission to the will of God that I announce the passing of my Father, my HERO, and my ROLE MODEL.”

In the emotional message, he expressed gratitude for spending his father's final moments surrounded by joy, prayers, and laughter. "Rest well, Baba Jimmy. Happy you left a LEGACY, and that LEGACY is ME!!!!!! I would miss you so MUCH!!!!!"

Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Terseer Waya, widely known as Kiddwaya, has announced his plans to venture into the music industry. The 31-year-old reality star revealed on his X handle that he intends to leverage his father's wealth to collaborate with top artists, saying, "Maybe I should enter this music business as well. Popsi is rich, so we go just hire the best of everyone. Make I kuku see wetin sup."

Kiddwaya’s decision to explore music follows a growing trend of Nigerian reality stars crossing over into the music scene after gaining fame from reality shows. He joins the ranks of notable stars like Timi Dakolo, Omawunmi, Iyanya, Chidinma, Laycon, and Efe Money, who have all successfully transitioned into music after their reality TV appearances.
