Actor Uche Maduagwu Slams Tuface For Proposing Marriage To Natasha
Controversial Nollywood actor, Uche Maduagwu, has slammed embattled music icon, Innocent Idibia, aka 2Face, over his public marriage proposal to Edo State lawmaker, Natasha Osawaru amid his divorce saga with his estranged wife, Annie Idibia.
2Face proposed to Natasha in a moment captured on video that went viral on Thursday.
Reacting, Maduagwu questioned why 2Face didn’t propose to Natasha secretly if he had good intentions.
He claimed that the singer used the proposal to distract Nigerians from asking the right questions.
In an Instagram post, the actor wrote, “This is wickedness. If he had good intentions, why did he not propose to Natasha secretly? After all, is he not still legally married to Annie? Or have they divorced? He needed all this attention and drama for his personal gain and to distract Nigerians from asking the right questions.
“2Baba, when did you and Natasha Oni Kaba started dating? Was it before you and Annie separated or while still living together in one house? Did Annie know about it and was that why her attitude changed towards you? Story plenty, I dey come.”
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.
