Yinka Alaseyori Apologises After Backlash Over Oyo State Abduction Comments
Nigerian gospel singer Yinka Alaseyori has reacted to the backlash she received after her comments on the abduction of teachers and students in Oyo State.
It can be noted that the singer had claimed that spiritual influences were affecting efforts to rescue the victims.
“I did a video two days ago about the kidnapped children, touching on government, parastatals and every agency. But when I woke up yesterday, I found out that some well-meaning Nigerians were not happy about it, as I made them feel their voices were unheard.”
“You know me too well that I would never make you feel like that. Mothers, do not be offended. I am sorry. I beg in God’s name. Please, forgive me. I would never think like that. Pardon and forgive me,” she said.
Nigerian singer Portable has spoken out, stating that not all Fulani people are bandits and should not be classified as such.
He shared that many people already assume that every Fulani person is involved in illegal activities or could be a bandit.
“Please, let’s stop making mistakes by labelling all Fulani as bandits. Me, I am not included. Because you see a group of Fulani inside a bus, you will just conclude that they are bandits. They are not bandits. Some are Hausa, some are their families, Fulani. Some are rearing cows, some sell pepper, and others are into business.”
Nigerian singer Tiwa Savage has reacted to comments following her remarks on the Oyo abduction incident.
A fan stated that she could use her influence to make a difference, to which the singer replied:
“When I spoke, I was crucified for it, but trust me, that won’t stop me from still being active. Just know that just because you might not see my post about it does not mean I am not doing anything. I just don’t have to validate my actions, God sees. May God help us and guide us all with the right wisdom to overcome this tragedy.”
Mika Abdalla, an actress from the popular book-adapted series Off Campus, has reportedly split from her fiancé, Jake Short.
Fans were shocked by the news, while others said they were not entirely surprised, citing recent interviews and online discussions about the couple.
It can be noted that the pair had been together for about five years after meeting on the set of Sex Appeal in 2021. They got engaged in 2025 before officially ending their relationship in 2026.
