Nigerian music artist Daniel Anidugbe, better known as Kizz Daniel, has revealed his plans to take a break from releasing new music after his next EP drops.

The singer made this announcement on his X (formerly Twitter) page, saying he would not put out any new songs until 2026.

“After this, I no dey drop anything again until 2026,” Kizz Daniel wrote, leaving fans in shock and sparking widespread reactions.

His upcoming EP, titled Uncle K, is set to be released on November 29, 2024, making it his final project for the next two years.

Kizz Daniel has been a dominant figure in the Nigerian music industry since his rise to fame in 2016 with his breakthrough single Woju.

Known for his smooth vocals and hit-making ability, he has remained one of the most consistent and versatile artists in the country.

Over the years, he has delivered chart-topping songs like Mama, Yeba, One Ticket, and Buga, which became a global sensation.

The singer’s discography boasts five studio albums, each showcasing his growth and mastery of different genres, from Afropop to R&B.

His ability to connect with diverse audiences has cemented his place as a household name, not only in Nigeria but across Africa and beyond.

His last album, Maverick, was widely praised for its creativity and depth, further solidifying his reputation as an artist who constantly pushes boundaries.

Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has spoken out about the backlash she faced for her role in seeking justice for the late Nigerian singer, Ilerioluwa Aloba, popularly known as Mohbad.

The actress revealed that her activism attracted harsh criticisms and serious allegations, including claims that she was involved in Mohbad’s death.

During an interview on “Glass House” with comedian AY, Iyabo addressed these accusations, calling them baseless and hurtful.

She shared that some individuals had gone as far as accusing her of using Mohbad’s death to gain popularity and pursue personal interests, including claims of seeking a political appointment.

She dismissed these narratives, asserting that her intentions were purely driven by a desire to uncover the truth and ensure justice for the young artist.

Iyabo clarified her connection with Mohbad, stating that they only met briefly during the One Africa Music Fest.

“I didn’t know him that well. He was a quiet young man, focused on his music and dealing with his struggles.

I wasn’t around when he passed away, so how could I have been involved?” she asked.

She pointed out the contradiction in the allegations, questioning why she would advocate for an autopsy and thorough investigation if she had something to hide.

The actress also addressed claims that she was financially motivated in her advocacy.

“There was a time they said I was paid to do this, or that I wanted to use it for clout. People even speculated I was chasing a political position. It’s all ridiculous.

I wasn’t seeking anything for myself; I only wanted justice for a young man who deserved better,” she said.

Mohbad, a fast-rising singer formerly signed to Naira Marley’s Marlian Records, tragically passed away at just 27.

“I am not doing this for praise or attention. Mohbad deserves justice, and I will continue to speak out until the truth is revealed,” she affirmed.

Nollywood star Toke Makinwa has opened up about her desire to give marriage another shot, describing it as one of the most beautiful institutions despite its many challenges.

In a conversation with British-Nigerian media personality Madame Joyce during a podcast interview, Toke reflected on her past experiences and shared her thoughts on love, relationships, and her hopes for the future.

The 40-year-old actress, who was previously married to businessman Maje Ayida, spoke openly about the highs and lows of her first marriage, which ended in 2017 after three years.

Toke explained how marriage can sometimes feel like the bond between siblings—exciting at first, but gradually tested by everyday challenges.

She humorously recalled moments from her married life, saying there were days she couldn’t wait to share her experiences with her then-husband, while on other days, she felt trapped and questioned her life choices.

Despite the difficulties she faced, Toke remains optimistic about love and the possibility of walking down the aisle again.

She stated that she still holds marriage in high regard and hopes to remarry someday, though she is in no rush.

“It hasn’t happened yet. I’m not ruling it out,” she shared, adding that she believes timing is everything and trusts that it will happen when the moment is right.

Toke’s comments also addressed misconceptions about her views on men, as some people have labeled her a feminist who criticizes men.

She clarified that her experiences have shaped her perspective, but they haven’t diminished her belief in the value of companionship and commitment.

The actress also took the opportunity to address recent rumors about her personal life.

Reports had surfaced suggesting she secretly tied the knot with her rumored longtime partner, Farouk Umar.

However, Toke dismissed these claims, describing Farouk as her “bestie” and clarifying that the supposed wedding was actually a thanksgiving event.
