If the news making the rounds in the social media is anything to go by, the Nollywood screen goddess, Rita Dominic has found true love at last as the 43-year-old actress has been hit by the cupid arrow as she is now dating a billionaire, Igbo businessman based in Lagos.
It was stated that the dude who was once married, now divorced, is tall, dark and handsome and perfectly complements Rita’s beauty and skin colour. The lovers recently returned to Lagos from Owerri, the Imo State capital where they had been on vacation.
Sources in the know said the billionaire businessman who owns a television station treats Rita Dominic like a queen. It is believed that the duo will soon get married if Rita doesn’t change her mind at the last minute.
It was also gathered that another top Nollywood actress, Ini Edo is also gearing up to marry another billionaire based in Lagos.
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.
