Seven Dead in Abuja Building Collapse

Seven people have been confirmed dead following a building collapse in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. Abdulrahman Mohammed, the acting Director General of the FCT Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), made the announcement during an inspection of the collapse site along Airport Road on Sunday.

The incident occurred on Saturday when individuals were attempting to salvage materials from a building that was being demolished by the Federal Capital Development Control due to issues with land documentation. Mohammed also reported that two people are currently receiving treatment at a local hospital and cautioned the public against endangering their lives by entering demolished structures.

While the exact number of people present in the building at the time of the collapse is still unknown, the rescue team from FEMA continues to work at the site.

Baba Ijesha Case: Suspended Actress Nkechi Blessing Apologizes to TAMPAN, Says “Please, Forgive Me”

Suspended Nollywood actress Nkechi Blessing recently issued a heartfelt public apology to the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners of Nigeria (TAMPAN) for her past criticism. TAMPAN, the governing body for Yoruba actors and filmmakers in Nigeria, suspended Blessing three years ago following an online dispute with actor Lege Maimi over Baba Ijesha’s alleged child abuse case.

The fallout stemmed from Blessing and fellow actress Iyabo Ojo’s outspoken campaign against Baba Ijesha, which drew criticism from several TAMPAN members, including actors Yomi Fabiyi and Lege Maimi. Amid the controversy, veteran actor Jide Kosoko announced that TAMPAN directors would no longer work with Ojo and Blessing, prompting Blessing to publicly mock the decision.

At the 2024 Celebrities Entertainment Awards in Canada, Blessing apologized to TAMPAN with visible emotion. In a viral video, she said, “I am so sorry for all that I did. I’m begging from the bottom of my heart... I’m being celebrated all over the world because of you. Please, I’m sorry.”

TAMPAN President Mr. Latin accepted her apology, marking a step toward resolution, while actor Odunlade Adekola commended her for the public gesture. Baba Ijesha was sentenced to prison in July 2022 by Justice Oluwatoyin Taiwo of the Ikeja Special Offences Court after a year-long trial.

“Tinubu Is Not T-Pain; He Understands Nigerians’ Struggles,” Says Onanuga

Presidential spokesman Bayo Onanuga has responded to critics on social media, asserting that President Bola Tinubu is deeply aware of the hardships Nigerians are facing and is committed to alleviating them. Addressing a nickname circulating online that refers to the President as “T-Pain,” Onanuga dismissed it as a “mischievous” label, emphasizing that Tinubu’s focus is on economic recovery, not causing pain.

In an interview, Onanuga clarified that Tinubu doesn’t monitor social media closely but remains conscious of the challenges affecting citizens. “The President has consistently acknowledged the struggles of Nigerians and is working to bring relief and lasting prosperity to the country,” he said, reiterating Tinubu’s dedication to stabilizing the economy.

Despite high inflation, Onanuga noted that Nigeria is still experiencing economic growth and rising revenues, even as the nation grapples with soaring food and energy prices. Many attribute these increased costs to the government’s recent reforms, particularly the removal of the fuel subsidy and unification of foreign exchange rates, which have sparked widespread protests. However, Tinubu’s administration maintains that these policies, though difficult, are essential for long-term economic health and will not be reversed.

Singer Chike Alleges Manipulation in Apple Music Nigeria Chart

Nigerian singer Chike recently claimed that the Apple Music Nigeria charts, particularly the Top 10 and Top 20, are often manipulated. In an appearance on Curiosity Made Me Ask, a show hosted by content creator Bae U Barbie, Chike discussed how artists could pay to boost their positions, potentially distorting the chart's accuracy.

“Your Top 10 and Top 20 on Apple Music are rigged... not all the time, but most times,” Chike noted, explaining that while some placements are genuine, many high-ranking songs are pushed up through paid promotion. He acknowledged that in today’s competitive music landscape, visibility is critical, prompting artists to invest heavily in promotion. "If I wanted to reach the top 10, I could tell my team to spend $30,000, and we’d get there. But it wouldn’t be real," he said, emphasizing that this strategy is common among artists with larger promotional budgets.

Chike’s comments have sparked discussion about chart transparency and the pressures artists face to stay visible in a crowded industry.
