Published

on

Thin Tall Tony’s wife, Laraba has forgiven his husband, TTT as he is also known despite all that happened in the Big Brother Naija House during his 56 day stay in the House. After giving him a warm embrace, she went a head to thank fans who stood by him while he was in the House.
In her post which she captioned “Positive Vibes Only”, she maintained that TTT is an amazing man, husband and father despite the fact that he denied her and their kids over and over again during his stay in BBN and also publicly made  out with fellow house mate Bisola.
Born Offiong Edet Anthony, Thin Tall Tony, who was evicted from the house on Sunday, came back to Lagos on Tuesday, March  21. His quest for the N25 million ended on Sunday after he  got the least vote in an eviction battle against Debie Rise, Efe and T. boss.
Bally, T. Boss and Thin Tall Tony were the initial nominees for eviction by fellow housemates until House leader, Bassey saved Bally and replaced him with Efe, Mavis put Debie Rise up for nomination using her power card.
During the diary season last Wednesday, Big Brother Naija, offered Thin Tall Tony who was up for eviction, one million naira to quit the show, but the dancer refused the offer out of confidence that he will win the show. He backed the rejection up by saying one of his life policy is not to quit on something, anything.
Though everyone expected Bisola to be sad after her lover TTT was evicted, but no one knew she was going to turn into a cry-cry baby for him. Tony’s eviction was met with surprise by many Nigerians, but many were shocked to see Bisola cry uncontrollably for him. She even went on to reveal to Efe that she missed him and his light skin.
Thin Tall Tony is a Nigerian born Dance Artiste, actor and acclaimed choreographer. He performed in the first edition of Big Brother Naija and has since expanded into acting, writing and poetry. He is a self confessed team player who believes in winning for all and celebrating good times. He generated many controversies on social media platform after he went unclad in Big Brother Naja 2017. He is married to his wife of three years and has two lovely kids.
Meanwhile, since the inception of Big Brother Naija Reality show, agitations aimed at scraping it have surfaced. While these have been mostly on social media,  Dr. Olusola Omoju has taken the case to court. The medical doctor who believes the show is jeopardizing his efforts in bringing up his children in a moral way, is seeking an injunction that restraints the broadcast of the show on DSTV and GOTV.
Dr. Olusola alleges that multi- choice introduced Big Brother Naija channel, aired adverts for the reality shows which promotes indecency, immorality, obscenity and included it on his bouquet without his consent. That as a result of the inclusion in his bouquet, his family members nd other dependants became avid watchers of the reality show and are now being influenced negatively through the continued broad cast of the show.
He agrees that multi-choice usually introduces a special code to enable subscribers choose whether they want access to show or not, but adds that this practice was not continued this year.

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.

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.
