Former Minister of Women Affairs, Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, Ventures into Nollywood

Former Minister of Women Affairs, Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, has ventured into the Nigerian film industry, Nollywood, just months after her removal from office.

Kennedy-Ohanenye was appointed as a minister in August 2023 but was dismissed on October 23, 2024, during a cabinet reshuffle by President Bola Tinubu. Now, just four months after her exit from the government, the 51-year-old politician has shifted her focus to filmmaking.

Announcing her new career on her X (formerly Twitter) handle, she shared a video from her latest project, signaling her official entry into Nollywood.

Aside from her political career, Kennedy-Ohanenye is also a lawyer and entrepreneur. She joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2015 and made history as the party’s first female presidential aspirant in 2023 before withdrawing to support Tinubu.

Kidnapped Anambra Lawmaker Justice Azuka Discovered Dead

The decomposing body of Justice Azuka, a member of the Anambra State House of Assembly, has been discovered on the 2nd Niger Bridge.

Azuka, who represented Onitsha North Constituency 1, was abducted on December 24, 2024, along Ugwunabankpa Road in Inland Town, Onitsha. After weeks of investigation, security operatives from Abuja apprehended the suspects on Wednesday. The arrested individuals later led authorities to the location where they had dumped the lawmaker’s remains.

The Anambra State Police Command stated that details of the incident remain unclear. However, the command’s spokesperson, Tochukwu Ikenga, confirmed that officers had been deployed to the scene, adding that further information would be provided in due time.

This tragic incident marks the second kidnapping and murder of a sitting Anambra lawmaker in recent years. In 2022, Okey Okoye, popularly known as “Okey Di Ok” from Aguata, was abducted and beheaded, with his body later discovered around the Nnobi area of the state.

The South-East region has experienced a surge in violence in recent years, with gunmen attacking public facilities and killing numerous individuals despite government and security assurances. Calls for secession have also intensified, but no group has claimed responsibility for the ongoing wave of violence.

February 5, 2025 “You Stole My Producer and Dancer” – Portable Accuses Olamide

“You Stole My Producer and Dancer” – Portable Accuses Olamide

Controversial singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has taken a jab at veteran rapper and music executive Olamide following speculations of a fallout between him and his former signee, Asake.

Rumors have been circulating that Asake parted ways with Olamide’s YBNL Nation under controversial circumstances. Reacting to the news in a video shared on his social media page, Portable mocked Olamide, recalling how the rapper only gave him a verse on his hit song Zazu instead of signing him to his record label.

Despite this, Portable claimed he remained more grateful than Asake, whom Olamide not only signed but also heavily promoted and sponsored.

He further alleged that rather than signing him, Olamide "snatched" his producer, dancer, and former promoter, Kogbagidi.

“Olamide Baddo, if you had asked me to sign to your record label, I would have gladly accepted it," Portable said. "But instead of signing me, you took my producer, dancer, and promoter Kogbagidi from me.

“The person you helped [Asake] doesn’t rate you anymore. You only gave me a verse, yet I’m still more grateful than Asake, whom you gave everything. Promote me the way you promoted Asake and see if I won’t progress more than him.”

Portable’s statement has sparked mixed reactions from fans, with some supporting his claims while others see it as another attempt to stir controversy.
