Regina Daniels’ Marriage To Chief Nwoko Breaks Family Curse -Mother
Regina Daniels’ marriage to Chief Ned Nwoko has allegedly broken the family’s generational curse. It was gathered that Regina Daniels’ mother told her to marry Ned Nwoko since she’ll get a bride price. It says the actress’s grandmother and mother never got a bride price paid on their heads.
It reads:
“After all said and done, do we want to believe that Regina Daniels is just being greedy or she is simply a scorned woman who wants to break what seem to be a generational misfortune?
Put yourself in Regina Daniel’s shoes. Her grandmother had her mother at home with no bride price paid on her head. Her mother had her at home with no bride price paid on her head. In her own case, she bore four children for a man who did not pay her bride price because her mother’s bride price was not paid and the mother could not identify her with the supposed man that fathered Regina Daniels.
Then, your 17 year old girl making it the 4th generation comes home allegedly pregnant with a 59 abi 62 year old man. Would you rather the man pays her bride price to break this “generational curse” happening in continues 4 generation or you will allow your daughter end up bearing kids at home with no father or husband as per tradition ?
Maybe she pushed her daughter, Regina Daniels in there out of pain and disappointment. Especially when it will be difficult to get an influential person like Ned Nwoko arrested to impregnating your teenage daughter in a country like Nigeria where money can make the laws look bull it.
The whole thing is unfortunate and sad. Why are we not blaming Regina Daniels for giving her beautiful body to Pa Ned? Why are we not blaming Pa Ned who is a politician in Regina’s state to have no better by helping Regina and her family out financially without any strings attached? Must he have sex with the 17year old who is probably younger than most of his children before assisting her financially even when he’s already got women in his house as wives and probably some side chics out there?
Wow! Smh
Anyway, na dem sabi. Na their family matter but this is sad. cuties opinion.

Davido Narrates How His Song Became President’s Ringtone
Nigerian megastar, Davido shares how his father recognised that his music was getting big.
Davido says his hit single ‘Dami Duro’ was the president’s ringtone
During an interview with newsmen, Davido spoke on the early days of his career and how he eventually got his father’s approval to make music.
The Grammy nominee shared the familiar story of how he left school in Atlanta and returned to Nigeria to pursue music without his father’s blessing which later led to his business mogul dad getting him arrested.
“I don’t think he did not want me to do music, he just wanted me to be successful as whatever I did because he got a blueprint for me already,” Davido said on his father’s early reaction to his decision to make music.
“He is so supportive and he checks on everything…My dad picks my album. When I am done, I send him all the tracks and my dad goes through all the records and gives me a paragraph each,” Davido narrates the personal interest and support his Dad gives him.
“My dad gave me the name Davido…The first show I did, he arrested me, the fans, the promoters,” Davido said laughing as he narrated the story of how his father got him arrested after he returned to Nigeria without his consent and had his first show as a 17-year-old. “He just wanted me to finish school,” Davido added about his father’s insistence that he get a university degree.
The three time Grammy nominee was asked when his father recognised that his music was getting big and he revealed it was when his hit song ‘Dami Duro’ was the president’s ringtone.
“When my song was the president’s ringtone,” Davido said.
While he did not mention the president or the country, Davido is likely referring to the exploit of former Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan who was the head of state between 2010 – 2015.
During the interview, Davido also mentioned his plans as a businessman beyond music. He revealed he had a production house called Coco House which he describes as a media house for creatives. He also added that he intends to get into crypto.

Halliday Attributes Collaboration Hindrance To Sentiments, Others
The convener, South South Media Week, Tammmy Halliday has attributed the lack of unity and collaboration in the PortHarcourt entertainment industry to sentiments, baggages and trust issues.
He made this known yesterday, during an interview with newsmen in Port Harcourt.
According to him, some things that spur baggages are family background, personal experience with colleagues or other people, saying that when someone has been reaped or used by any of his colleagues or someone else, he might not want to work with some other persons because of trust issue.
This goes along with baggages, where he now sees his other colleagues as one and same with the one who used him and so this continues to hinder collaborations in the industry.
He advised that as an entertainer you should get better, visible and exposed as the industry required.
He said that the key factor that can help collaboration is growth, explaining that growth would make entertainers live beyond baggages, adding that if you are good at what you do, and know what you want and where you are going with it , then you are good to go.
“You can seek an advice from a legal practitioner, professional or a senior colleagues to ensure that you (entertainer) get it right.
It is not a bad idea to serve or work with someone, because you serve to rise in the industry. You have to be well rooted, but, you should be able to know want you want and where you are going with what you do, this will help you move on, when it is no longer working for you, otherwise, you will remain there and keep complaining and then it gets to that point where you begin to see that person as a reaper,” he said.
Mr Halliday who also do corporate social responsibility award via his platform, South South Media Week stated that critical communication is important in any situation, with a critical approach, no doubt you will always be on the right track.
Speaking on criteria for awarding awards, he maintained that it is on numbers, affiliations, fanbase, followership, association and sales of the person or organisation in question, saying that these also works for collaboration with an artiste, because they are factors that facilitate growth in the industry.
Categories of award that are awarded through the platform includes, entrepreneur award of the year, innovation award of the year and others.
