Published

on

Nigerian music star, Duncan Wene Mighty also known as Port Harcourt First Son has denied reports that he battered his wife. According to reports on the social media platforms recently the Port Harcourt born singer assaulted his wife.
Reacting, Duncan Mighty said some people were out to break his marriage, adding that such persons would not succeed. The artiste, who is currently making waves in the music industry passed his message via Instagram.
He wrote: “the next news will be that I use my wife (to make sacrifice) to come back to the music industry. What do you gain in tarnishing my image with lies that I brutalised my own wife? My life and journey to get her wasn’t by Duncan Might, but by God. For your information, my marriage is not one of those you people brake down and will never be.
“For your information, I am the winner of my marriage, my wife and kids can’t do without Daddy every moment. The more you make people hate me, the more they love me”.
Meanwhile, last week, Duncan Mighty shared a video of him bowing down to Davido on his Instagram page. Fans of the ‘Fake Love’ crooner criticised him for belittling himself before a 25 year old singer who met him in the music business.
In the video, the 34-year-old Ikwerre born musician appreciated Davido for doing a collaboration with him, saying the new song would open up the entire Niger Delta region and set the space for an unprecedented growth of entertainment in the region.
Explaining why Duncan Mighty bowed down for Davido, his manager, Michael Gabriel was said to have stated that Duncan bowed out of sheer happiness.
He stated: “Duncan was just happy to have Davido in the Niger Delta, it was the first time he would visit for a video shoot.
“It is a big deal for someone like Davido to come to Port Harcourt and for Duncan Mighty to collaborate with him as well. He didn’t plan to bow to anybody, he was just excited. But people misinterpreted his gesture sometimes, there is no need to react to things like this because you will only give people more reasons to talk.
“When I mentioned it to him, he just focused on other things and wanted to know the next thing on the agenda. Criticism drives traffic to a brand and it has helped us. We have been in the news for the past two months, so people can continue to talk while we continue to trend.
“There is no week Duncan doesn’t have more than 1000 new followers on Instagram, if you do something people must talk, Pastor Enoch Adeboye suffers criticism despite being a man of God, former President Goodluck Jonathan did his best, yet he was criticised, Duncan’s schedule is tight, as he is everywhere now, I receive calls from almost every part of the world from people who want to do one thing or the other with him and they are ready to pay whatever amount.
“I last saw Duncan three weeks ago before I did again on Thursday after the video shoot in Port Harcourt, he followed Davido in his private jet to Lagos almost immediately”.

Jewel Environmental Initiative (JEI), a Non-Governmental Organisation (NGO), has commended President Bola Tinubu for inaugurating the Renewed Hope Climate Change Awareness Tour, urging Nigerians and stakeholders to support the initiative nationwide.
Mr Ismail Bima, Chief Executive Officer of JEI, said in a statement in Gombe yesterday that the tour would significantly strengthen public understanding of climate change and encourage collective environmental responsibility.
Bima described the initiative as a clear affirmation of the Federal Government’s commitment to pursuing practical solution driven strategies that addressed climate challenges and safeguarded livelihoods, ecosystems, and national development efforts.
He noted that the programme would achieve its objectives if government institutions, private organisations, civil society groups, and citizens actively played their respective roles in promoting awareness, resilience, and sustainable practices.
According to him, the inauguration marks an important step toward building a nationwide movement capable of delivering measurable progress in Nigeria’s broader efforts to secure a climate resilient future for generations.
He said JEI fully aligned with the Renewed Hope Climate Change Awareness Tour, noting that the initiative could inspire innovation, strengthen environmental education, and promote sustainable development across communities nationwide.
Bima also commended the Minister of Environment and urged federal, state, and local stakeholders to support the initiative, stressing that climate change impacts affected all citizens regardless of region or status.
He emphasised that growing climate pressures on agriculture, livelihoods, and ecosystems made the awareness tour timely, adding that stronger information sharing and partnerships were necessary to confront environmental risks nationwide.
He urged authorities to implement the initiative with sustained commitment, extend activities to grassroots communities, and collaborate with state and local governments to ensure wider participation and maximum impact nationwide effectively.
The Tide source reports that President Tinubu inaugurated the Renewed Hope Climate Change Awareness Tour in Abuja on Tuesday to promote climate resilience and sustainable development nationwide initiatives.

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.
