In an interview with DJ Flo, Chinwe revealed that the issues began when Zion threatened to end their relationship if she did not apologize to Chizoba, with whom she had a confrontation earlier that day.
She said, “This is not the first time Zion would be throwing me under the bus. I don’t know the image his trying to portray to other people, but at my expense, its f*cked up.
“Na me dem insult and I defended myself, why do I have to go and apologise to the person that insulted me?
“And I’m telling him that I’m not gonna do it, and the next thing, he’s keeping face. For what? So is he saying, anytime he throws his childish tantrums and I refuse to act the way he wants, he’s gonna act silly towards me at the expense of my feelings and emotions? It’s not done.
“If for anything, I like to keep a straight head, my mental health is 1001 percent paramount to me. I won’t compromise it for anybody. So if this is the emotional roller coaster he’s gonna be taking me through, then f*ck everything we are here for. If we cannot be a team, lets f*cking go home.
“Let’s go home, I have a family that cares about me. I speak to my dad at least five times in a day. My papa no dey use me play, so for one guy, one n*gga to be using me to do this rubbish, I’m done.
“I would not act like what I’m not. If that’s the image he wants to portray, then you know what, we go home, you live your life, I live mine.
“I would not be stuck with a guy that keeps throwing me under the bus, its not possible. A simple I will not do that, the next thing he’s carrying face for me. So I should be begging him up and down?
“He’s saying lets go and pack our bags but just know that once we live here its over between the both of us. He dey threaten me with breakup, me? With breakup? Then lets break up I’m not doing again.”
Controversial Nigerian singer Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington or Akpi, has been released from Kuje Prison following a court directive.
Activist lawyer Deji Adeyanju disclosed this development on Tuesday, stating on X (formerly Twitter), “Speed Darlington is out of Kuje Prison.”
The singer’s release came after an Abuja court granted him bail. This decision followed intense public pressure on the Nigeria Police Force, which led to his arraignment.

Prior to his release, Speed Darlington had petitioned Deputy Inspector-General of Police, Force Intelligence Bureau, DIG Dasuki Galadanchi, over his prolonged detention. He called on the DIG to comply with a court order directing his release or formal arraignment.
Justice M.S. Liman had earlier issued an order on December 23, 2024, mandating the police to charge the singer within 48 hours or release him unconditionally.
Speed Darlington’s arrest stemmed from allegations he made against Grammy Award-winning singer Burna Boy. The singer accused Burna Boy of being involved in an immoral relationship with embattled U.S. rapper and music executive Sean Combs, also known as P. Diddy.
The situation has sparked widespread discussions, with many Nigerians expressing relief at Speed Darlington’s freedom while others continue to debate the circumstances surrounding his arrest.

Odule described the tragic news as “very hard” to bear, adding that he has since come to accept it as the will of God. Despite the acceptance, the actor expressed his fervent hope never to endure such a devastating tragedy again.
He said, “The saddest moment of my life was when I was called that my first child died. It was very hard on me. It was hard because of the situation faced during the child’s birth, but no one can question God’s authority. It was so bad that I don’t pray for it anymore.”
Known for his roles in classic Yoruba films, Odule continues to share both his professional and personal experiences, endearing himself to fans and colleagues alike.
In early January 2025, Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Burna Boy fulfilled a promise by gifting $30,000 to Bethel Okechukwu, a phone repairer from Alaba Market who had claimed to be related to socialite Cubana Chief Priest.
This act of generosity occurred amid an ongoing feud between Burna Boy and the Cubana Chief Priest.

Following the donation, Cubana Chief Priest clarified that Bethel Okechukwu is not his brother, stating, “I have only one biological big brother & two kid sisters. They ain’t doing so bad.” He emphasized that he is not obligated to support his siblings financially and urged the public to verify such claims.
As of now, there are no credible reports indicating that Burna Boy instructed Bethel Okechukwu to take any specific actions towards Cubana Chief Priest after receiving the $30,000. The narrative appears to be centered around Burna Boy’s charitable gesture and Cubana Chief Priest’s subsequent clarification regarding his familial relationships.
