Julius Agwu Replies Charly Boy
Ace comedian, Julius
Agwu has reacted angrily to Area ‘ Fada’ Charly Boy for tongue lashing his comedy show by calling it a ‘boring revival.’ In his response to Charly Boy’s recent review article, Julius Agwu said he was being Immature.
In his words, Julius Agwu said “I hold Charly Boy in high esteem and respect him what I did has not changed me from the comedian that people knew. I had an encounter with God and I am using that show to tell the story of God’s glory in my life.”
“Charly Boy has my number, if he was angry, he could have reached out to me as a younger brother. This is not the first time he would be attending my show. That particular show was meant to honour God. He had a choice, he could have refused to come.”
“My God will answer Charly Boy on my behalf. It is God’s work I am doing now, so it is God he is mocking I and not me, nobody mocks God.”
R&B star, Temilade Openiyi, popularly known as Tems, has recounted the early-career challenges she faced, revealing that she was once booed out of the stage while performing at a school event.
Speaking in an interview with Newsmen, the Crazy Tings crooner shared that she wasn’t only booed but was also harassed with plastic bottles.
“I remember one time I was going to perform at my school as an up-and-coming singer and I thought I was going to receiving a standing ovation.
“But I got booed. They even threw plastic bottles at me,” she recalled.
Tems explained that despite the embarrassing incident and other such rejections, she remained determined to pursue a career in music.
The Tide Entertainment reports that Tems admitted that some of the initial rejections she faced could be due to her conviction to stick to her originality instead of doing covers or familiar sounds like most of her peers.
The Grammy-winning singer said looking back now, she is glad that she didn’t compromise her style despite the initial pressures.
A close associate of late singer Mohbad, Primeboy, has appealed for the artiste’s burial nearly three years after his death.
According to him, Mohbad’s body remains in the mortuary since September 12, 2023, pending burial arrangements.
The Tide Entertainment reports that in a statement Primeboy urged the family, public, and government to permit the burial, stating, “It’s been almost three years since Mohbad left us. His body is still in the mortuary. I’m begging the family, I’m begging the public, I’m begging the government, please let’s bury our brother. He deserves a befitting burial.”
It would be recalled that Mohbad’s death sparked public outrage, protests, and investigations. Ongoing autopsy examinations, police inquiries, and legal proceedings have delayed burial arrangements amid family disagreements and public scrutiny.
