Bovi Ugboma: Women Dominate Nigeria’s Entertainment Industry
Nigerian comedian Bovi Ugboma recently asserted that women hold significant power in the entertainment industry. Speaking on the TVC program *Your View*, he remarked that while women often voice concerns about inequality, they may not realize their substantial influence in an industry they largely dominate.
Ugboma noted, “Women should recognize that in areas where they seek equality, they have often already succeeded, but their ongoing fight makes them unaware of this victory.” He pointed out that historically, figures like Amaka Igwe paved the way, and today, successful producers and directors such as Funke Akindele and Mo Abudu continue to lead. He emphasized that notable names like Bolanle Austin-Peters and Kemi Adetiba have made significant contributions as well.
In response to complaints from young actresses about male producers exploiting their positions, Ugboma questioned who they confide in, stating, “Women are the ones running the industry.” He urged them to acknowledge the power they possess and the successes they’ve achieved within the entertainment landscape.

Jarvis Explains Tumor Diagnosis and Pause in AI Content Creation
Nigerian content creator Jarvis, famous for her AI and NPC impressions, recently explained why she stopped making videos. In a TikTok livestream, she cleared up rumors that she paused content creation because of her relationship with fellow creator Peller. Instead, she revealed that the real reason was a health issue—a tumour in her jaw.
Jarvis initially thought it was a dental problem but later found out it was a tumour. Showing the bump on her jaw, she said she is waiting for biopsy results and hopes the news isn’t serious. “I’m praying it’s not bad because it’s affecting my face,” she said. She also addressed fans asking her to return to AI content, explaining that her face now looks swollen, which makes it harder to continue.
Her followers filled the comments with support and well-wishes for her recovery.
