“You’re Not Wise If You Think You Deserved the Prize More” – Kellyrae Says
Big Brother Naija Season 8 winner, Kellyrae, has dismissed claims that he didn’t deserve the N100 million grand prize, calling out critics for lacking wisdom.
The reality star addressed the ongoing controversy during a podcast hosted by fellow housemate, Adekunle Olopade.
Some fans and former contestants, including Shaun, have argued that Kellyrae’s contributions on the show were insufficient to warrant his win.
However, Kellyrae responded firmly, stating that personal disagreements should not overshadow merit.
He shared an example involving Onyeka, who isn’t on good terms with his wife, Kassia, but still acknowledges her undeniable talent.
“Just because we’re not on good terms doesn’t mean I should discredit her.
Talent should always be recognized,” Kellyrae explained.
He also questioned the reasoning of his critics, noting that feeling more deserving of the prize than others without valid grounds reflects poor judgment.
“If you think you were worthier of the money, then you’re not being wise,” he said.
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.’”
