Journalist Adedayo Oderinu Advises Women Against Having Many Children
Nigerian journalist Adedayo Oderinu has sparked conversations on social media with a controversial post urging women to reconsider having too many children.
In his message, he highlighted the potential challenges women could face when raising children, especially in situations where they might have to shoulder the responsibilities alone.
In the post, Oderinu cautioned women, saying, “It is in your best interest to not have too many kids. Too many factors should make you pay attention to this very closely.”
He outlined key reasons for his stance, emphasising the unpredictability of life. “What if you have to take responsibility for the kids alone? Spouses die. Spouses become irresponsible. Spouses become helpless in cases of illness,” he warned.

Oderinu also pointed out the toll raising multiple children could have on a woman’s personal growth and life balance. “While you raise kids, your life’s balance gets altered.
The more kids you raise, the longer your period of imbalance. It would help if you had a life of your own too. It would be best if you achieved some success yourself. Don’t be just a breeder!” he added.
He concluded his message with a strong admonition, urging women to prioritise their well-being and future. “I don’t think you were born to just raise kids! Think about yourself before procreating with reckless abandon!”
The post has since garnered mixed reactions, with some praising the journalist for addressing societal pressures on women, while others criticised his choice of words and tone.
Nigerian content creator, Denilson Igwe has raised doubts about his former collaborator Mark Angel’s recent claim of losing $3.7 million (approximately 6 billion naira) in forex trading.

However, Denilson Igwe, who has previously accused Mark Angel of financial misconduct, has hinted that the claims might be untrue. Responding via Instagram, Igwe wrote, “Lies na water. Some people are just worst than the devil.”
The post reignited public interest in the duo’s rocky history. In 2024, Igwe had publicly accused Mark Angel of diverting the comedy team’s streaming revenues into personal accounts. According to Igwe, while Mark was allegedly earning millions from streaming platforms, he paid other team members paltry sums.
As reactions to the unfolding drama continue to pour in, fans are divided, with some questioning the authenticity of Mark Angel’s claims and others criticizing Igwe’s public approach to addressing the issue.
Neither Mark Angel nor his team has officially responded to Igwe’s latest remarks.
Nigerian singer Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as Portable, has once again sparked conversations online with his unfiltered remarks, this time hailing Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy.

“I man na 7 man you big pass them @burnaboygram,” Portable wrote, celebrating Burna Boy’s dominance. He continued with his signature phrases, “ZAzuu No fake life no scam life Akoi Grace,” emphasising the authenticity of his admiration.

The self-styled “Zazu Zeh” crooner further asserted his insider knowledge of the industry, saying, “If you wan know the real about the top ask me I folow dey at the top only God I never see who’s big is big.”
Portable, known for his eccentric personality and bold declarations, has never shied away from expressing his thoughts about his peers. This latest comment adds to his history of engaging with the industry’s top stars in his unique and unapologetic style.
Fans and followers have since flooded the comments with their reactions, applauding his boldness while others dissect the context of his remarks. Burna Boy is yet to respond.
Nigerian rapper, Darlington Okoye, popularly known as Speed Darlington, has initiated a N300 million fundamental rights enforcement suit against the Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, over his alleged unlawful detention.
The Federal High Court in Abuja has scheduled January 13 for the hearing of Darlington’s case, following a request from his solicitor, Abubakar Marshal, to adjourn proceedings.
According to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), the adjournment will allow the police’s solicitor, Garba Audu, additional time to review and respond to the documents served.

This case stems from a court order issued on 23 December 2024, which directed the police to either charge Darlington or release him within 48 hours.
The court also instructed the Nigerian police to comply with the release order pending the hearing of the substantive case. Furthermore, it designated Abubakar Marshal, Esq., as a surety for Darlington.
The 39-year-old rapper was detained in Lagos over allegations of defamation and cyberstalking linked to comments he made about Burna Boy.
In his lawsuit, Darlington is seeking compensation for unlawful detention and is requesting an order for his immediate release or for him to be brought before the court.
His legal team has also alleged that he was subjected to torture and mistreatment during his detention.
