“I Was Broke and Homeless” – Uriel Oputa Opens Up About Dark Days in Lagos
Ex Big Brother Naija Star, Uriel Oputa, recalled her early and homeless days in Lagos before her fame.
The reality star took to social media to share her story and revealed that she lived in a rental for 150,000 per night and was unsure of how she will keep up with payment.
“In November, I sold my car. I had no plans of coming back to Nigeria. My mum had just been diagnosed with something new, and I was preparing to move to London for two years to take care of her. I gave up everything. My car. My apartment. My Lagos routine. I left it all behind. But by December, everything changed.
“My brother told me to go back to Lagos. I was confused, heartbroken, and honestly had no direction. I had nowhere to stay and no plan. I ended up in a shortlet apartment paying ₦150,000 per day. I didn’t know how I was going to pay for it. But somehow, I did.”

Davido Reflects on His Generation’s Future in the Music Industry
Nigerian singer Davido speaks to his colleagues and shares that it is time for them to take a step back and let upcoming and rising stars shine.
“This is me and my contemporaries’ last 5–6 years. I am not going to be 40, still dragging the spotlight with guys in their 20s. Jay-Z took a break and he is doing his thing.”
“I can take a 10-year break, come back, and still do a 50-arena tour. I have the catalogue. I might decide not to make another song for the rest of my life, and nobody is touching my catalogue.”
“There are so many other things music should be able to help you branch into. I am not saying we should retire. But I am not going to be 40 and dragging the spotlight with some 20-year-old kid.”
