The House of Representatives on Thursday reversed its decision on the second reading of a bill which sought to strip the vice-president, governors and deputy governors of immunity.

The lower legislative chamber made the u-turn after the Majority Leader of the House, Julius Ihonvbere, moved a motion.

The green chamber also rescinded its decision on the bill to abolish the death penalty.

Both bills passed second reading during plenary on Wednesday.

Death has snatched Abisola Kola-Daisi, wife of Kolapo Kola-Daisi and the eldest child of late Oyo Governor Senator Abiola Ajimobi unannounced.

Bisola succumbed to a brief illness while in the United Kingdom.

Abiola’s demise re-echoes the words of English poet and playwright, Williams Shakespeare, who described the world a stage and each person plays his part and leave.

With the exit of Abisola, a huge void is created in the heart of her mother — Florence Ajimobi. Like the biblical reference, to everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born and a time to die.

Her death comes five years after the death of her father in 2020.

Abisola was fondly called Abi-KD, and celebrated her birthday on March 12.

She is the founder of Florence H Luxury and the Chairman/CEO of Grandex Nigeria Limited.

Abisola was born March 12, 1981.

She attended the British School of Lomé, Togo where she learned to speak French fluently – before moving to the United States of America to obtain an AA Degree from Santa Monica College.

She later earned a bachelor’s degree in finance from California State University, and an MBA from the United Kingdom. In 2022, she completed a Master’s degree in the power and influence of positive influence at Harvard Business School.

After graduating from college in the United States, Abisola worked as a Senior Manager (Retail) at Victoria’s Secret before returning home to complete the National Youth Service Corps in Nigeria. In 2008, she joined Saje Shipping, a subsidiary of MRS Oil and Gas as the Senior Manager – Finance and Administration.

Abisola was a Special Adviser to Minister of Budget and Economic Planning, Atiku Bagudu.

She has been married to Kolapo Kola-Daisi, son of a billionaire industrialist from Ibadan since 2010 and blessed with three lovely children.

After their engagement ceremony on the 5th of November 2010, Bisola and KP’s wedding took place on 6th of November 2010 in Ibadan, Nigeria.

It was a beautiful ceremony as the Islamic wedding rites were completed and Bisola and KP were joined as husband and wife in the presence of their family and friends

Abisola touched lives and impacted communities through her philanthropic deeds, and was active in various charitable causes.

She founded the AKD Foundation and the AKD Kids Foundation to care for orphans and homeless children in Nigeria. She is also a patron of the ABC Foundation, a charitable organisation founded by her mother, in Ibadan.

Bisola Ajimobi Kola-Daisi, the eldest daughter of the late former governor of Oyo State, Abiola Ajimobi, has passed away at the age of 42.

She reportedly died in the early hours of Thursday, March 27, in the United Kingdom.

Until her demise, Bisola served as the Special Adviser to the Minister of Budget and Planning, Atiku Bagudu.

A former aide to the late governor, Bolaji Tunji, confirmed the news, saying, “Yes, it has been confirmed.”

Bisola, who was married to Kolapo Kola-Daisi, was known for her contributions to governance and public service.

Her death comes as another painful blow to the Ajimobi family, following the passing of her father in 2020.

Former Chief of Staff to ex-Governor Willie Obiano, Chief Primus Odili, has backed the endorsement of Anambra State Governor, Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, for re-election by the Minister of Works, Chief Dave Umahi.

During the flag-off of the access road to the 2nd Niger Bridge at Ogbunike near Onitsha, Umahi commended Soludo’s development efforts, declaring that the governor faces no real opposition in the November 8, 2025, governorship election.

Describing Soludo’s achievements as remarkable, Umahi, a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), stated that if he were from Anambra State, he would support Soludo for another term.

Odili echoed Umahi’s sentiments, emphasizing that in just three years, Soludo has delivered impressive results that should earn him overwhelming support from Anambra voters.

“The endorsement from Umahi, whose tenure as Ebonyi State governor was transformational, carries significant weight,” Odili said.

“Governor Soludo has completed major projects without borrowing. If he is given another term, the chances of completing ongoing developments are even greater.”

He added that while opposition parties may struggle to acknowledge Soludo’s achievements, the results speak for themselves.

“The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is not in a hurry to relinquish power in Anambra. Instead, we are strengthening our bond with the people through visible performance that no amount of rhetoric can discredit.

“Anambra residents know that the APGA-led government under Soludo is committed to building a safe, viable, and prosperous state. Umahi’s advice to the opposition should be taken seriously in the interest of the people.”

Odili also highlighted the impact of the Agunechemba security initiative, which has significantly reduced crime in the state, paving the way for development.

“With the decline in abductions, murder, and robbery, Soludo’s government now enjoys greater public support. The people appreciate his efforts to transform Anambra into a livable, smart megacity.

“Umahi’s words may be difficult for the opposition to accept, but they reflect reality. A simple drive around Anambra is enough to convince anyone that Soludo’s solutions are working and that the people have fully embraced his vision,” Odili concluded.

Enough is Enough (EiE) Nigeria, a civil society organisation, says the legal, political, and democratic implications of “silencing elected voices” will be examined in the upcoming edition of ‘ThursdayTalks’.

ThursdayTalks is a monthly online discussion with thought leaders on issues affecting Nigerians and the country.

The conversation is an initiative of EiE in partnership with BudgIT and TheCable.

This edition, billed to hold on Thursday, March 27 is themed: ‘Suspended Voices, Silenced Mandates: What Next for Democracy?’

Stakeholders will explore the recent suspension of Siminalayi Fubara, governor of Rivers state; suspension of the legislature in Rivers, suspension of Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan, senator representing Kogi central; and how such actions impact citizen trust, legislative independence, and accountability.

On March 18, President Bola Tinubu declared a state of emergency in Rivers and suspended Fubara; Ngozi Odu, his deputy; and all members of the Rivers assembly, due to prolonged political crisis in the state.

In a statement, EIE said this month’s conversation will have Tolulope Adeleru-Balogun, NewsCentralTV programme director, as moderator; and Opeyemi Adamolekun, EIE’s executive director, as speaker.

Other speakers are Oluseun Onigbinde, global director at BudgIT; and Chidi Odinkalu, a human rights activist.

The online conversation will last from 5-7pm.

The question is not where US President Donald Trump has not touched in less than 100 days in office. It is how the world is coping with the shock and devastation of his touch and the trail of chaos it is leaving behind.

Because of its vulnerabilities, Africa was never far from Trump’s reach. When the continent thought the looming mass deportation of immigrants and the scrapping of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) were among the worst measures in the early days of Trump’s second term, he unleashed a body blow that has left South Africa in a daze.

As of March 23, South Africa’s Ambassador to the US, Ebrahim Rasool, arrived back in Cape Town to tumultuous cheers from large crowds after he departed Washington. He was declared persona non grata by the Trump administration on March 14 for his comments at a webinar.

Rasool’s ‘sin’

Secretary of State Marco Rubio described Rasool’s criticisms of President Trump’s policies as “unacceptable”, adding that the ambassador harboured animosity towards the US president. Rubio said on X, where he also announced the expulsion, Rasool “hates America.”

The last time the US declared a foreign ambassador persona non grata was 17 years ago, under President George W. Bush. And even then, it retaliated against Bolivia after that country expelled the US ambassador for allegedly interfering in its “internal affairs.”

What was it that Rasool said? He told a webinar hosted by a South African think tank that Trump was “mobilising a supremacism” and also trying to “project white victimhood as a dog whistle” as a reaction to the demographic reality of a diminishing white population.

He said, “We see it in the domestic politics of the USA, the MAGA movement as a response not simply to a supremacist instinct, but to very clear data that shows great demographic shifts in the USA in which the voting electorate in the USA is projected to become 48 percent white.”

Inconvenient truth

That was the inconvenient truth. Could it have been said differently? Did Rasool walk into a trap, or was Rubio’s excuse a red herring? Apart from Somalia, no other African country has been targeted by the new US administration as much as South Africa. 

First, there was an executive order freezing US assistance to Pretoria for alleged “unjust racial discrimination” against white Afrikaans over the Expropriation Act, which seeks to redistribute land in the country, and then followed the stoppage of the USAID-funded HIV/AIDS programme that has put hundreds of lives at risk.

Rasool did what he had to. I won’t remove anything from his words. Relations between Pretoria and Washington were already testy, and the beads holding them had been broken from the waist by Trump’s chaotic dance steps. It was not a matter of if but which way the beads would fall.

Behind the story

The anti-Pretoria lobby in the US has had it for South Africa for a long time, especially following that country’s stand against Israel in the ongoing war on Gaza.

During my visit to Israel last December, the talk at the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs was that South Africa took a bribe of $2 billion from Iran to mount a case against the Benjamin Netanyahu government at the International Criminal Court (ICC), an allegation that diplomatic sources in Pretoria have denied.

Despite Trump’s expression of displeasure, South Africa said it would not withdraw its case of genocide against Israel, saying it is aware that “Standing by our principles sometimes has consequences.”

Silent Africa

Rasool’s eviction is another consequence of South Africa’s principled stand, and the country is taking it in its stride. My surprise is the loud silence over Trump’s decision across African capitals. The continent’s media have also treated the story like a footnote.

We’re not talking about the US evicting illegal immigrants or smashing drug gangs. We’re talking about an ambassador with a distinguished career in the foreign service who was first appointed to the US in 2010 under Barack Obama.

He served for five years and was reappointed because of his extensive US domestic politics experience and ability to navigate complex international relations.

Contrary to what Rubio would have the world believe, Rasool’s “cardinal sin” was championing the case against Israel at the ICC – a matter of principle for which the ambassador should have no regrets.

Either African governments and the AU are too shocked to offer a clear response, or the continent has accepted chaos as the inevitability of the Trump era.

Dangerous silence

Whatever it is, silence is a dangerous option. If Trump can evict the ambassador of one of Africa’s most consequential countries for expressing an inconvenient opinion, it is only a matter of time before the less endowed countries will be in the firing line.

An academic and diplomat who served in many conflict areas in Africa, Professor Babafemi Badejo, said, “South Africa has, of late, been leading many countries over Gaza-Palestine. About four-fifths of African countries are, at best, lukewarm on this issue.

“It’s not a surprise that African countries have been mute over the US Secretary of State’s action declaring the South African ambassador persona non grata.”

If South Africa’s primary offence is its position on the war in Gaza – a position shared by many African countries – why is the continent unable to rally against Rasool’s eviction? Why is the AU silent?

European example

 In 2018, three European countries – France, Germany and the UK – took a common stand against the US in response to Washington’s unilateral withdrawal from the comprehensive action plan to guarantee the nuclear agreement with Iran. They bypassed the dollar-trading system and set up their mechanism to trade with Tehran.

Why is Africa a spectator in its own case? “Fear of punishments and resignation to a life of minimal relevance, if at all, has been the stance of many African countries,” Badejo said. “How does a Lilliputian state begging for food aid for its people assert itself.”

Africa’s other reasons

There could be a less apparent reason Trump would get away with his diplomacy of bullying. Several African leaders would like to copy him. In West and Central Africa, for example, five countries – Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger, Guinea and Chad – are under military rule.

Four of them have broken away from the regional group ECOWAS. Their leaders, who might have been in soup in a different, bygone world, would now consider themselves lucky beneficiaries of a chaotic global order. The last thing they would want to do is to challenge Trump.

Apart from the President of Cote d’Ivoire, Alassane Ouattara, whose supporters are already urging to continue for a fourth term against the constitutionally approved limit, the presidents of three other African countries are pressing for an extended term limit, the sort of thing Trump is already hinting at.

I didn’t expect the South African Development Community (SADC) or the AU to call an extraordinary meeting to discuss Rasool’s expulsion. But it’s a measure of how weak and resigned we have become that neither an officer of these organisations nor an African head of state can call out his eviction.

It’s Rasool today. Trump’s next victim is not far away.

Multichoice apartheid pricing?

I’m usually not one to interfere with the markets, whatever the invincible foxes or forces want to do. But how can you ignore the nonsense that Multichoice has been up to lately? The pay-tv service provider has increased fees in Nigeria by 21 percent through the backdoor while cutting subscription fees in South Africa by 38 percent! Why? It said the cut in South Africa was a token to subscribers for the cost of living crisis. And in Nigeria? You know the old story – inflation, infrastructure, blah, blah. I wouldn’t mind if Multichoice had a competitor. But it’s nonsense for this monopoly to make most of its profits in this so-called high-risk environment and use it to subsidise subscribers elsewhere.

We had a name for it: apartheid!

The move by the House of Representatives to strip vice president, governors and their deputies of their immunity while sparing the president, has sparked debates among stakeholders who have faulted the logic of the proposed legislation by the Green Chamber.

The stakeholders including political scientists, civil rights activists and politicians, while speaking on the proposed amendments argued that both the president and the vice president are usually elected on a joint ticket, hence, should enjoy the same privilege.

Among those who spoke is a senior lecturer in the Department of Political Science,  Bayero University, Kano, Dr Aminu Hayatu and a human rights activist cum former Kaduna senator, Shehu Sani.

According to them, what is good for the president is also good for the vice president, hence, any proposal to remove immunity must affect both the president and the vice president.

Daily Trust reports that the House of Representatives yesterday passed for second reading, a bill seeking to amend the constitution to strip the vice president, governors and deputy governors of immunity.

The bill was among the 42 considered and passed through second reading during Wednesday’s plenary session, presided over by the Deputy Speaker, Benjamin Okezie Kalu.

The House had on Tuesday passed 39 constitution amendment bills for second reading and referred to the House Committee on Constitution Review for further legislative actions. The accelerated passage of 42 more bills yesterday increased the number of constitution amendment bills passed for second reading to 81.

Sponsored by Rep. Solomon Bob (Rivers PDP), the bill is seeking an amendment of Section 308 of the 1999 Constitution to guard against abuse of office and to ensure transparency in governance.

The long title of the proposed legislation reads, “A Bill for an Act to alter the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 to qualify the immunity conferred on the President, remove the immunity conferred on the Vice President, the Governors and their deputies, in order to curb corruption, eradicate impunity, and enhance accountability in public office and for Related Matters”.

The lawmaker said the bill seeks to “promote accountability in public office” by removing the immunity currently granted to the vice president, governors and their deputies.”

The draft bill states that it seeks to amend Section 308 of the principal Act by substituting a new subsection (3) as follows: “This section applies to a person holding the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and the Vice President only when acting as President in line with Section 145 of this Constitution.”

In subsection (4), it proposes that “The foregoing provisions of this section shall be inapplicable where the person to whom this section applies is acting in an unofficial capacity or where the conduct of the person is beyond the powers of his office or the conduct is criminal in nature”.

President should not be spared from losing immunity

Reacting, a senior lecturer in the Department of Political Science at Bayero University Kano, Dr Aminu Hayatu, faulted the amendment bill seeking to strip vice president, governors and their deputies of immunity, describing the move as unnecessary.

He queried the rationale behind advocating for the removal of immunity for only the vice president while the president is allowed to retain immunity, adding that both of them are usually elected on a joint ticket.

“So, the question is, this is a joint ticket. So, why are you isolating someone that is also a party to the ticket? If you are doing that, do it to the governors alongside the deputies and the president with his vice president.  I mean, that makes sense because it’s a joint ticket. They were not elected separately. So, all this is something that I think is unnecessary.

“What we need to focus on is whether the executive should maintain that privilege of immunity or not. That should be the subject of debate. Not that some individuals, you know, are being considered while others are being spared. The same reason the vice-president or the deputy governor is there is to assist the president or the governor. And then, it’s the same duty and function that they are performing as assistants to these executive positions; the number one position in the state or in the country.

“So, it is, I think, for me, an unnecessary exercise because we are battling with bigger problems that we should focus on. Constitutional amendment is something that should happen with deep insights, not like the one of immunity of the president or the deputy governor and what have you. So, I am opposed to this and I am a frontline critic of this.”

Also speaking on the matter, a rights activist and former Kaduna senator, Shehu Sani, faulted the removal of immunity for only the vice president while the president is allowed to enjoy immunity.

Sani in a post via his verified X handle (formerly Twitter) said: “The positive aspects of removing immunity for VP and governors is that nobody will be above the law; the negative aspect of it is that it can be used to witch hunt VPs and governors.”

He, however, argued that if the VPs must lose their immunity as proposed by the amendment bill, the president must not be spared.

“If a VP should have no immunity, whoever is the President should not have it also.

Sani urged Nigerians to “show interest in it (the proposed amendment bill) before it’s too late.”

Bill to increase Lagos LGAs from 20 to 57

Among the bills passed is the proposal to increase the number of Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Lagos State from 20 to 57.

The bill, jointly sponsored by Reps James Abiodun Faleke, Babajimi Benson, Enitan Badru and 19 others, is titled, “A Bill for an Act to Alter the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) to accommodate the 37 Development Area Councils of Lagos State as full-fledged Local Government Areas, increasing the total number of Local Government Areas in Lagos State to 57 and the total number of Local Government Areas in the federation to 811, and for Related Matters (HB. 1498)

Daily Trust reports that the move is aimed at making the 37 existing Local Council Development Areas in the state full-fledged LGAs.

It would be recalled that the creation of LCDA by then administration of Bola Ahmed Tinubu when he was the state governor in 2004, pitched him against then President Olusegun Obasanjo, who stopped allocations to the state following the development.

Obasanjo had directed states that created new local government areas at the time to revert to the former structure or risk stoppage of their statutory allocations.

While most of the affected states reverted to the old councils for their allocations to be restored, Lagos State remained resolute in sustaining the new councils.

The failure of then Governor Tinubu to heed to the presidential order led to the stoppage of allocations to the state.

Tinubu stood his ground and headed to the Supreme Court to challenge the action where he eventually won and the allocations for Lagos State were subsequently released.

Bills for death penalty review, power devolution, others pass second reading

Among the bills passed for second reading were those seeking a review of the framework for Local Government Administration, review of death penalty law and citizenship by investment.

One of the bills seeks to amend the constitution to transfer control of natural resources—including mines, minerals, oil fields, and geological surveys—from the Exclusive Legislative List to the Concurrent Legislative List.

Sponsored by Speaker Abbas Tajudeen, Kingley Chinda,  Gaza Jonathan Gbefwi, and Ikeagwuonu Onyinye Ugochinyere, the bills (HB. 200, 1310, 1446 & 1546) aim to grant state governments a greater role in resource governance.

Another set of bills propose the transfer of fingerprints, identification, and criminal records from the Exclusive to the Concurrent List (HB.1411, 1403 & 1918).

Additionally, Hon. Babajimi Benson introduced a bill (HB.1406) to allow states to collect road tolls, while Hon. Ikeagwuonu Ugochinyere’s HB.1431 seeks to move the construction of non-trunk ‘A’ roads to the Concurrent List.

Another bill (HB.2060), co-sponsored by Benjamin Okezie Kalu and Muhammed Mukhtar, proposes the inclusion of tourism on the Concurrent List to boost the industry’s development at the state level. Another bill (HB.1412) seeks to insert piracy and high-seas crimes into the Exclusive List, reinforcing Nigeria’s maritime security.

Also, HB.1543, sponsored by Speaker Abbas Tajudeen and Hon. Marcus Onobun, aims to move quarantine-related matters from the Exclusive to the Concurrent List, potentially enhancing states’ responses to health emergencies.

Meanwhile, HB.1512 seeks to allow states to manage water resources within their jurisdictions and ensure financial autonomy for local government councils.

State creation and local government reforms

The House also considered multiple bills seeking the creation of new states, including Oke-Ogun, Ijebu, Ife-Ijesa, Tiga, Orlu, and Etiti, among others.

On local governance, HB.1669, sponsored by Hon. Dibiagwu Eugene Okechukwu, aims to reinforce local government autonomy. Conversely, HB.1215 proposes removing local governments as a constitutionally recognised tier of government and placing their creation and funding under state governments.

Traditional institutions and citizenship rights

HBs.203 & 71 propose formal recognition of traditional rulers’ advisory roles in governance, while HB.1195 & 1422 seek to extend citizenship rights to foreign spouses of Nigerian women. HB.2059 proposed a Citizenship by Investment scheme for foreign investors meeting a set financial threshold.

Also passed were bills revising penalties for capital offences (HB.2120), defining acts of torture (HB.1194), and ensuring free, compulsory basic education as a constitutional right (HBs.1661 & 1206). Additionally, HB.1517 seeks to clarify conditions for declaring a state of emergency, among others.

Why bills got accelerated passage —Reps spokesman

Meanwhile, the House has explained the rationale behind the accelerated passage of the constitution amendment bills through second reading without the general principles of the bills being subjected to debate by the lawmakers.

Speaking to our reporter, the House spokesman, Rep. Akin Rotimi said the House gave the bills accelerated passage through second reading based on resolution taken and recommendations by the House Committee on Constitutional Amendment.

He added that the measure was to expedite action and the process of the constitution review exercise, adding that the House Rule allows members to take such actions that may ease the work of the House.

According to him, the House needs to speed up the work of the committee ahead of the public hearings of the bills and other activities.

He further said it was in line with the deadline set by the committee to round off its work on the constitution review exercise.

Daily Trust reports that the constitution review committee chaired by the House Deputy Speaker, Benjamin Okezie Kalu, has set December 2025 as the deadline for the conclusion of the constitution amendment exercise.

T.D. Jakes, The Senior Pastor of the Potter’s House in Dallas, Texas, has revealed that the life-threatening medical emergency he suffered last year was a heart attack.

The 67-year-old was preaching in his church last November when the incident happened.

Midway through speaking, Jakes paused onstage and was shaking after lowering the microphone.

The much respected cleric was then helped off the stage by church officials.

Jakes said he did not feel any symptoms of a cardiac arrest, but doctors later told him he was preaching with only half of his heart working.

“I didn’t really realize what was happening to me onstage until I got to the hospital in an ambulance and fussing that it happened onstage, by the way, because I didn’t want it to happen, and the doctor leaned over my ear and said, ‘You had a massive heart attack,'” Jakes told Craig Melvin on TODAY.

“The reason I didn’t realize it was because I had none of the symptoms that they say.

“No numbness, no sharp pain, no anything. I just kind of drifted off to sleep. I didn’t know what it was, but I almost died.

“(The doctor) said five minutes later, I’d have been dead on arrival.

“The right side of my heart had completely stopped getting blood at all.

“As long as I was up preaching, I felt fine. But when I sat down, the adrenaline dropped, and it exposed the fact that I was preaching with half of my heart closed through a clot. And they had to go get it,” he added.

Seasoned actor Hanks Anuku has shared thoughts on remarriage, revealing that he’s interested in finding love again but with a non-Nigerian.

Anuku said experience with his ex-wife from Asaba has left him traumatised, making him wary of Nigerian women.

In a recent interview on Nollywood Hardcore, Anuku explained that his previous marriage failed due to compatibility issues.

He emphasised that he’s seeking a deeper connection with someone who shares his values and interests.

Anuku revealed that he finds himself more compatible with Caucasian women with whom he had friendships in the past.

Anuku’s preference for Caucasian women is rooted in his experiences abroad where he had many female friends from that background.

He has a particular fondness for blonde women and in contrast, his past marriage was marred by his ex-wife’s constant demands for money and her jealousy over his acting career.

Anuku, who has been separated for over 10 years, said: “My marriage failed because we were not compatible. It was a wrong marriage. She is not the mother of my kids. But I had a stepdaughter she came with from a previous relationship.

“I have been separated for more than 10 years. I’m not married to anybody yet but I have another lady who has two kids for me. She has a son and daughter for me and they live together with their mother. I’m not married again. I’m not married after separating from my first wife. I don’t want to get married to any Nigerian. Because I went through a lot of psychological trauma and all that. I never expected that I was going to be separated from her. It hurt me. But I had to move on.

“I thought I had a chance to get married again but it never happened. The mother of my kids is not the kind of woman I want to get married to. So, we are just friends. She has two kids for me don’t mean I have to marry her. She is just my friend. I’m doing what I can. I like to be married and be happy in the marriage. I have dated for a couple of years and I know that she wasn’t going to be my wife. I like to be in love with somebody and not just be infatuated. Agape love, the greatest of love is what I want in any woman I’m going to get married to.

“It’s not that I don’t want to get married, I’m just scared of Nigerian women. Overseas, I had Caucasian female friends. If I had to go back, it would be a bit too late now. Maybe, if I go on vacation and I find a friend… I found myself a lot more compatible with Caucasian women. When I was overseas, I never dated any coloured woman. Blonde women are my specs. They never bothered me until I came to Nigeria.

“My ex-wife is a Nigerian woman from Asaba. I was in love with her. We were in school together but she was always demanding money. And she also asked me to stop acting because she was jealous of other women being around me. I told her I couldn’t stop acting.”
