Nigerian Actress Angela Okorie takes to social media to reveal that her colleague, Mercy Johnson, is battling an illness.

The actress shared that she received news that Mercy Johnson was unwell and has asked fans to put her in their prayers.

“I got a news that Mercy Johnson is not feeling well and the kind of sickness she has is not something I would wish on my enemies; I have forgiven Mercy Johnson because she is seriously ill. She should go and apologize to all the people she has wronged and she should stop using church words that doesn’t represent her.”

It can also be noted that the last time Mercy Johnson was seen, she looked thinner than usual.

Nigerian singer Skales reassures upcoming Nigerian artists to stay consistent in their musical journey.

The singer took to social media to advise upcoming artists not to give up despite how things may look, and urges them to keep pushing.

“Your music will take you places. All over the globe… you just need to be consistent enough to see it happen. Most artists quit before the blessings show up. Keep going!”

Nigerian singer Simi has politely asked fans to stop referring to her daughter, Adejare, as “Duduke”. The nickname came after Simi released her emotional hit song Duduke in 2020, which she dedicated to her unborn child. When she and her husband Adekunle Gold welcomed their baby girl in June of that year, many fans started using the song title as a nickname for the child.

However, during a recent chat with VJ Adams, Simi shared that the name doesn’t sit well with her. She explained that Duduke wasn’t a real word—it was just a sound meant to mimic the rhythm of a heartbeat, capturing how her baby made her feel at the time.

“People call my daughter Duduke, which I don’t like,” she said with a laugh. “That’s not her name, and it doesn’t even mean anything. If it had a positive meaning, maybe I’d be okay with it. But it’s literally just a sound—du-du-ke, like my heart beating.” Despite her feelings, she understands the love behind it. “I know it’s coming from a good place, so I try not to react,” she added.
