Nollywood Stars Flay Pastors’ Lifestyles
Popular Lagos State social life and showbiz personality, Pretty Mike, has taken to his instagram page to advise young Nigerians to stop worshiping their pastors as pastors are human beings that have no power, adding that if they have the power they claim to have, Nigerians would not be the way they are.
He said “stupidity is when you don’t have a bicycle and you give your last Kobo to your pastor to buy a jet. Mumu is when you cannot pay your children’s school fees, yet have money to contribute to your church to build expensive school which your children will never attend. Ignorance is when you believe it when your pastor tells you not to live a worldly life, and yet he enjoys all the best things in the world, the fine houses cars, jets, babes etc, while you are waiting till you get to heaven to enjoy your own”.
“Ewu” is when you refuse to take your very sick child to the hospital because your pastor said you should not do so, yet that same pastor secretly runs to USA for medical attention anytime he has an headache. While kolo mental is when you see a poor beggar on the road and you refuse to give him N50 out of the 5000 naira in your pocket because it is your tithe money”.
You are a Zombie when you trek, dance and gallivant for 30 kilometres under the hot sun sweating and smelling like shit during your revival programme, while your pastor is inside a full option factory fitted air conditioned state-of-the-art suv with his delectable wife slow driving along the road. “Stop worshipping your pastors!!!, they are human beings like you, they don’t have any power, if they had the power they claim they have, Nigeria will not be the way it is”.
“If you don’t like what I have said, argue with your keyboard and don’t insult me because I know most of you are being brain washed by your. Wise up Nigerians. Even the white men that brought Christianity to Africa don’t do it that way.”
In a related development, Nollywood Actress turned evangelist, Eucharia Anunobi recently took to her instagram to spit venom at church pastors and general overseers whom she alleged treat their younger pastors unfairly. She wrote “this thing of sending an assistant pastor to start a new branch without any financial assistance, asking them to go and prove their ministry looks like wickedness in religious robe”.
The Nollywood screen diva went further to lambast Daddy General Overseers (GOS) who sit back and lick the sweat off the back of younger pastors, those she said are sent out to grow their ministry without any financial support, this is wickedness, she said..
“It is your ministry, your responsibility, your vision and you should also be part of the provision, let’s be real and truthful to our selves, let our conscience judge this thing”, she ranted.
Recall that Eucharia Anunobi rose to fame for her explicit bathroom scene with Zack Orji in the mid’ ‘90s in one of Nollywood’s hit movies, ‘Glamour Girls’ which remains one of the most controversial scenes in the Nigerian movie industry till date.
Recently she took to instagram to write on deception. The actress who wondered why a single lady with no means of income will be living in a palatial apartment, also raised some important points in her post. Here is what she wrote.
“I can’t thank God enough for journey mercy to and from America, but one thing has been bugging my mind and that is deception. The manual of living (the Bible) says in Galatians 6:3, for if a man thinks himself to be something where he is nothing, he deceivers himself”, this scripture just blew my mind .
“Why would a man be married with children and go back getting into illicit relationships with single ladies and promise them marriage? Why would a single lady who doesn’t have a known means of income be living in a palatial apartment, why buy a vehicle you can’t maintain? Why do you take a mortgage on a house above what you can afford? Why do you have children you can’t take care of…? “ all these are nothing but deception.

Uche Ogbodo Shares Reason Bambam’s Marriage Ended
Critics claimed that her body makeover was one of the reasons she allegedly left the marriage and noted that she was still out in public with the video of her club outing.
Reacting to the allegations, Ogbodo came to Bambam’s defence. She stated that no woman would leave her marriage simply because she went under the knife. According to her, it is the man who drives a woman to leave.
The mother of three further explained that no woman willingly leaves a marriage she has invested in over many years. If a woman does leave, it is the man’s fault, possibly due to abuse that she chooses not to disclose publicly.
She added that a man must have shown the woman disrespect or failed to nurture the marriage.
Ogbodo emphasised that if a man refuses to love, protect, and give peace to his wife, the responsibility for the breakdown rests entirely with him.
It would be recalled that Uche Ogbodo also recently underwent cosmetic surgery and shared videos with her fans online,
The actress had remained on the lips of many Nigerians following her role in the trending movie Love in Every Word.

The Tide Entertainment reports that she questioned the popular act of ‘gate crashing’, regarding it as a rude and disrespectful behaviour. Henshaw also urged Nigerians to refrain from attending gatherings where they are not invited.Nigerian Politics Analysis
”I want to talk about something rampant, has been rampant, and is still rampant. I just want to ask those of you who show up uninvited at events and parties, what’s your purpose? What do you aim to achieve? Then, those of you who receive a card that admits only one person and invite all your village people, don’t check with the host; you pack your people and come. What are you doing there? Why don’t you respect yourself and stay away? It’s rude, you’re a gate crasher. Respect yourself enough to stay away from places you aren’t invited to,” she said.

Oscars Set 2027 And 2028 Dates Ahead Of 100th Edition In 2028
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has unveiled dates for both the 99th Academy Awards and its landmark 100th ceremony. The back-to-back events, set for 2027 and 2028, will mark the final years of the Oscars airing on longtime broadcast partner ABC before a major shift to YouTube.
The 99th Oscars will take place on Sunday, March 14, 2027, followed by the historic 100th edition on Sunday, March 5, 2028. Both ceremonies will broadcast live at 7 p.m. ET from the iconic Dolby Theatre in Hollywood and reach audiences in over 200 territories worldwide. Looking ahead, the Academy has also confirmed a venue change, with the ceremony set to move to the Peacock Theater beginning in 2029, where it will remain through 2039.
The Tide Entertainment reports that the announcement comes amid a shifting broadcast landscape. ABC is gearing up for a packed 2027 schedule, including its debut as the home of the Grammy Awards and its first Super Bowl broadcast in over two decades. Meanwhile, this year’s Oscars telecast saw a dip in viewership, drawing 17.86 million viewers across ABC and Hulu, a 9% decline from the previous year’s five-year high.
Still, excitement around the awards remains strong. The most recent ceremony crowned Paul Thomas Anderson’s “One Battle After Another” as Best Picture, while early buzz for the upcoming season is already building. Anticipated contenders include the Ryan Gosling-led “Project Hail Mary,” Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part Three” starring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, and Alejandro G. Iñárritu’s “Digger” featuring Tom Cruise.
No hosts have been announced yet for either ceremony, adding another layer of anticipation to the milestone events.
In addition to confirming the ceremony dates, the Academy also released its full calendar for the 2026–2027 awards season, outlining key milestones from the eligibility period beginning January 1, 2026, to nominations voting in January 2027, and final voting in early March.
