Nigerian Cleric Woli Arole shares his thoughts on the popular misconception of women being silent or having a lack of voice in marriage.

Arole takes to social media to share his beliefs and reason for disagreeing with such statement. He stated that the woman needs her voice as it can serve as a balance in the marriage and home.

Arole stated that a woman with a lack of voice in her marriage can cause harm in the relationship. “The ideology that women cannot talk or have opinions in marriage is wrong Men, submission doesn’t mean dumbness; your wife is your help meet. At times, the salvation of the home will be in her mouth.”

Popular blogger Linda Ikeji has finally made her choice between two of Nigeria’s top music stars—Wizkid and Davido. In a recent sit-down with Pulse, she was asked to pick between the two, and after a short pause, she went with Davido.

Without mincing words, she said Davido is “by far” the better artist. Her response wasn’t exactly shocking, especially to those familiar with her rocky past with Wizkid. Their clash dates back to 2016 when Linda published a report about Wizkid allegedly being served an eviction notice at his Lekki home.

Things quickly spiraled out of control, with Wizkid publicly blasting her on social media and even threatening to send his teenage cousin after her. Their online battle dragged on for months and eventually drew the attention of the police. Although there were attempts to mend things, the two have stayed distant ever since.

Muyiwa Awoniyi, manager to Grammy-winning Nigerian singer Temilade Openiyi, aka Tems, recently shared a surprising story about their early days together. On the Afrobeats Intelligence podcast, he revealed that when they first met, Tems had barely any money—just 200 Naira in her bank account. Despite her financial struggles, Awoniyi was impressed by her drive and dedication.

He recalled how, when he offered to manage her, she was so eager to formalize their partnership that she pushed him to sign the paperwork first—something he had never experienced before. Instead of a simple management deal, they decided to start a company together because he saw something unique in her. Before working together, they had been friends for about three months, during which Tems would quietly listen while he and his cousin chatted on his podcast.

Awoniyi said that even though Tems didn’t have a steady income, she would often order food for them, showing a generosity and spirit that set her apart from others he had met in Nigeria. Her hunger to succeed and her unique character convinced him she was different and worth the leap.
