AY And I Were Never Friends, Says Basketmouth

Published

on

Ace Nigerian humour merchant, Bright Okpocha, has responded to an accusation by his colleague, Ayo Makun, that their feud began due to N30,000 payment. According to AY Makun in a recent interview, the rift with his colleague began after Basketmouth refused to pay him N30,000 for a job he had represented him at the time they were ‘hustling’.

While Basketmouth had restrained from commenting on AY’s statement as he explained in a recent comedy show, as a guest of the podcast of media personality, Nedu, The Honest Brunch, the comedian noted that he was never friends with AY.

During the interview, he said in part, “Just to set the records straight, AY is not my friend. We have never been friends, I have never visited his house, and I have never personally invited him to my house. I have never called him to ask where he is for us to hang out.

It is easy to tell when you look at social media, you would never find a picture of me and him together. We were never friends. What happened is that Ali Baba called me and told me to check him out and put him on. I put him on Laughs And Jams back in those days. We probably would have come together to start something, maybe.

“This is where I need to correct something, I lied. The reason I minded my business was that when we were coming together, I heard some things that threw me off. During the period Ali Baba wanted us to come together, I heard some things I was not meant to hear.

I was not meant to know about it and I could not tell him. The kind of person that I am, I would wait for you to act first. All the things that he is talking about are not what made me give him space. It is something else. The N30k incident, I have already forgotten about it, but he is using it as a smokescreen.”

Lizzy Anjorin Questions Court Order Over Priscilla Ojo’s Son

Published

on

Nollywood actress Lizzy Anjorin has questioned the authenticity of an interim order issued by the Lagos State High Court on 2 September 2026, restraining her from publishing photographs of Priscilla Ojo’s one-year-old son, Rakeem Mkambala, and from posting editorials concerning the family on specified social media platforms.

Anjorin raised the issue during an Instagram Live session on Friday, 4 September, after Priscilla shared a copy of the court order online.

The actress argued that publicising court documents before formally serving the respondent undermines the case.

“Your case na dead on arrival. If you post court letter on any platform before serving person wey you wan go serve, that court case na fake court case,” Anjorin said during the live session.

Her comments came shortly after the High Court of Lagos State granted an ex parte application brought by Priscilla, her husband, Tanzanian singer Juma Mussa Mkambala, and their son, Rakeem.

Justice Yetunde Adesanya issued the interim order in Suit No. LD/ADR/6646/2026.

The order restrains Anjorin, as well as people acting under her authority, from publishing, posting, circulating, uploading or broadcasting photographs of Rakeem on specified social media platforms, including Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp and TikTok.

The court also directed Anjorin to cease publishing or broadcasting editorials concerning the applicants on the platforms covered by the order.

An ex parte order is made at an interim stage without the respondent being heard. The order is therefore not a final determination of the dispute and remains subject to further proceedings.

Priscilla shared the certified copy of the order on her Instagram Story on Friday, bringing the legal development into public view.

Anjorin’s reaction centres on the timing and manner in which the court documents were publicised. Her assertion that such publication makes a case “fake” is her own claim and is not a finding contained in the court order.

The development marks another chapter in the prolonged public dispute between Anjorin and Priscilla’s family, particularly Priscilla’s mother, actress Iyabo Ojo.

The disagreement has played out largely on social media and has previously resulted in legal action, including a ₦1 billion defamation suit filed by Iyabo Ojo against Anjorin.

In recent weeks, the dispute has also drawn Priscilla and her young son into the controversy, following public comments by Anjorin concerning the family.

BBNaija Kess Says Big Brother Makes Life Harder

Published

on

Kesiena Tony Adjekpovu, popularly known as Kess, has said that participating in Big Brother Naija can make life harder, offering a candid reflection on the challenges that may come with the reality television experience.

The former Big Brother Naija housemate made the comment in a statement shared on social media, where he suggested that winning or simply taking part in the reality show does not necessarily make life easier after leaving the house.

“Big Brother makes your life harder,” Kess said.

The remark has drawn attention because life after reality television can bring a different set of expectations, particularly as former housemates adjust to increased public attention and the pressure that can accompany visibility.

Kess was a housemate on the seventh season of Big Brother Naija, which aired in 2022. He entered the show as a businessman and was among the contestants who competed for the season’s grand prize.

His time on the programme also placed him in the public eye, giving viewers an opportunity to follow his personality and relationships inside the house.

Kess’s latest comment offers a more reflective view of the reality TV platform, suggesting that the experience does not end when a contestant leaves the house.

However, he did not provide further details in the available post explaining which specific aspects of life after Big Brother he was referring to.
