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.
Nigerian singer Spyro speaks on his values, morals, and how he applies them to his work.
He shared that when shooting music videos, he does not tolerate certain things because they do not align with his beliefs.
“You can’t be in a video with me and you’re smoking. That can’t happen. You can’t be in a video with me and you’re naked. That won’t happen. I have rules and regulations for working with people.
“I can’t be on a song that is not clean, to start with. Shoday, give your life to Christ. I said, ‘Shoday, give your life to Christ.’ He said I should continue mine while he focuses on his. Even if he’s not with Christ, he’s coming to Christ. That’s why I’m in this industry. It’s a gradual process.”
Babcock University makes headlines as it speaks regarding content creator Carter Efe, who claimed that he studied at the school and graduated with a first-class degree.
When asked for proof, he shared a certificate that stated “First Class Upper.” However, the university has now spoken out, stating that the certificate is not from the school and is forged.
“Babcock University does not issue ‘Honorary Certificates’ in recognition of undergraduate academic performance. Academic excellence, including the award of First Class Honours, is formally recognized only through the University’s official degree certificate and academic transcript issued by the Office of the Registrar.”
“There is no academic classification or degree known to Babcock University as ‘First Class Upper.’ The recognized classification is First Class Honours.”
