“No Need for Jealousy When We Can All Succeed” – Eniola Badmus Speaks After Clash with Laide Bakare
Nollywood actress Eniola Badmus has finally addressed the public after her clash with fellow actress Laide Bakare at the Owanbe Thieves movie premiere hosted by Eniola Ajao.
The heated moment, which caught the attention of many, saw Bakare accusing Badmus of calling her an “animal” and insisting she was responsible for the actress’s rise to fame by giving her a life-changing role.
Breaking her silence, Eniola Badmus has chosen a different path—one of peace and maturity. She urged her colleagues in the movie industry to stay away from jealousy and unnecessary conflicts, stressing the importance of togetherness.
According to her, there’s enough room for everyone to thrive, and no one’s success should ever feel like a threat.
Taking to Instagram, she shared a heartfelt message, saying life teaches us that real strength comes from unity, not drama. Even though people may have had their differences or misunderstandings, she believes it’s time to let love lead the way.
She reminded her colleagues that one person’s success doesn’t reduce another’s, and that there’s so much more power in collaboration than in rivalry. Her message ended on a strong note, encouraging everyone to choose peace—not because they’re weak, but because they’re wise.
The long-awaited trial in the murder case of legendary rapper Tupac Shakur has reached a major development, with Duane “Keffe D” Davis sentenced to 40 years to life in prison on October 13, 2026.
Davis was convicted of first-degree murder in August 2026 for his role in orchestrating the 1996 killing. Tupac was shot in a drive-by attack in Las Vegas on September 7, 1996, and died six days later.
During the sentencing, the judge addressed Davis, rejecting his claims that he had changed his life and moved on from his past. “Mr. Davis, for three years, I’ve heard you say some variation of the same thing to law enforcement, [in interviews], in your book, and it’s something like, ‘Yeah, I was involved in this, but I’m different. I’ve moved on. I got out of Compton. I’m a grandfather now.’ I’m here to tell you that’s not how this works,” the judge said.
She continued “You don’t get to take a man from his family. You don’t get to take his very life, his whole future from him, and just walk away from it. Especially when that man is Tupac Shakur.
“The world never forgot about him and his death, and neither did Las Vegas. It took us 30 years, but at this time, you are going to face justice for what you did on Sept. 7, 1996.”
Nollywood actor Timini Egbuson has reflected on how his perception of YouTube movies has changed over the years. The actor recalled that there was a time when he looked down on movies released on YouTube.
However, he now appreciates the opportunities they have provided for his career and joked that he might have struggled financially if he had continued to dismiss them.
Sharing his thoughts in a post on X, Egbuson wrote “Can’t believe I was looking down on YouTube movies at some point. Hunger go don kpai me by now.”
Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has advised young people who are still living with their parents not to rush into moving out because of peer pressure.
The singer encouraged young people to focus on their personal circumstances rather than compare their lives with those of others. He noted that there is no need to leave their parents’ homes simply because they want to feel independent.
Sharing his advice, Dakolo said “No hurry, leave your papa house because of peer pressure. Forget all that, ‘I don’t have my freedom here.’”
