Iyabo Ojo Slams Tanzanian Blogger Over Comment On Daughter

After Kimambi made a controversial post encouraging her daughter Priscilla and her Tanzanian husband Juma Jux, actress and entrepreneur Iyabo Ojo dragged a Tanzanian blogger through the mud, Iyabo Ojo dragged Mange Kimambi through the mud to stop social media content from detracting from Tanzania’s electoral season.

The blogger argued in a post on Friday that the couple’s online activity was distracting from the “fight of a lifetime” in the country.

Your Tanzanian in-laws adore you, Kimambi wrote. We have embraced you with loving arms, but Tanzania is engaged in a fight of a lifetime. You seem like such a sweet girl. Our rights are being fought for.

We don’t need you and Jux to annoy our people with pointless content that the government wants you guys to post because we need our people to pay attention to the fight.

“We need you and Jux to sit down for the next five months because we are on their as* and we aren’t letting up.” You can continue to do whatever you need to do to stay relevant after the election, and we will back you.

Don’t let us hate you, please. When you travel to London next week, we need you to keep Jux in the room and stop posting pointless material to annoy us. Also, while you’re at it, tell Jux to tell his best friend @diamondplatnumz to lay low for the next five months.

We are aware that you may not want to join our fight because you, at our expense, enjoy the privilege our government has to offer, but kindly don’t stop us from trying.

Iyabo criticized Kimambi for meddling in Priscilla and Jux’s affair, which was not supportive of Kimambi’s advice, though.

The actress remarked, “Your audacity is shocking me! It is unacceptable to make such a reference to my daughter and her husband, calling their contentment stupid, and attempting to stoke fear and intimidation. I’ve taught her to be self-assured and authentic as a parent. Although the Mkambala are very quiet, please take note that my daughter won’t joke with me.

Regarding the wedding rumors, my family’s financial institution covers costs, not my government, which is what gave us the money. We, the Nigerians, gave my daughter a lavish wedding in Nigeria, and we were able to arrange it for her.

I stand by my principles and fight for what I believe in without disparaging or threatening anyone because I am an activist. A true leader requires courage and presence. You must be living in America to dictate to my daughter and her husband, who are living in Tanzania.

Nick Knowles, 64, marries fiancée Katie, 34, in romantic six-figure ceremony

Nick Knowles’ fiance, who is 27 years his junior, wed in a six-figure ceremony today. After dating for more than four years, Katie Dadzie and the DIY SOS star wed.

Katie, 34, and Nick, 62, first got together in 2019 and started dating again in 2021. According to reports, the pair’s special day has cost them six-figure sums.

Nick wore a light pink tuxedo jacket with black pants and a matching black bow tie to look stylish. A purple flower was adorning his lapel to complete his look.

Nick chose a pink jacket (n. c.)

Katie’s non-traditional wedding gown also stunned guests. She chose to go for a white dress with blue flower details instead of the customary all-white dress.

She went for full-glam wedding makeup and tied her hair in a bun. She then complemented her look with a long veil and a statement-making necklace.

In a play center where Nick’s daughters met and Nick’s youngest son Eddie, 9, the two first forged a friendship in 2019. Katie owns a lingerie and sex toy business, as does Boobbix, which sells “lactation products for breastfeeding mothers.”

When the pair were in New Orleans together two years ago, Nick sat on one knee. Katie has since celebrated her last date with her closest and dearest just before the big day by having a hen-do with them.

The pair got married in Essex

The significant age difference between her and Nick had to be defended by Katie, who is also a proud mother-of-two. The star has also been associated with a younger woman, but she is not the first of her kind.

As they went on a date to a West End show with each other in 2019, Nick and Emily Hallinan, 26, were seen getting close. The TV star reportedly dates marketing executive Rebecca Kearns, who is also reported to be older than him, in the prior year.

Nick tied the knot with Katie
Nick and Katie (n. c.) got married.

Following an appearance at the TV Choice Awards in September 2016, Nick was photographed getting cozy with Emmerdale’s Gemma Oaten after splitting up with Rebecca.

Gemma describing the situation as “one Sunday morning when we were lying in bed and all these texts came through about us being photographed together” before describing how the photos eventually caused their relationship to split. He completely changed in a matter of seconds. He and how his family would be affected by this was the focus. He claimed it didn’t matter to me, but it was really cruel. I experienced sneezing.

Katie had a long veil

She continued, “I asked, Do you want to throw away what we have?” Nothing has been done improperly. But he just dropped me like a ton of bricks. I believed he had a true relationship with him, and he had no desire to reveal anything.

Joe Swash reveals ‘constant battle’ he and wife Stacey struggle with amid marriage concerns

They revealed their relationship plans on Stacey and Joe: Full House, a reality series, but they are still fighting a common parenting battle.

Loose Women star Stacey Solomon and her husband Joe Swash have given a realistic perspective on their home life, admitting they have a “constant battle” with their kids. Former EastEnders actor Joe, 43, and Stacey, 35, have six children between them.

Rex, five, Rose, three, and Belle, two, all live with them. Leighton, 12, and Zachary, 17, are Stacey’s two children from previous relationships.

Harry, a son of Harry’s age, was a child of Joe and his ex Emma Sophocleous. When Joe went to court to see his son, the couple split up when their son was very young.

Parenting has become more difficult in recent years, with Stacey and Joe being forced to put their feet up over the relatable issue of screen time. Rex is now only allowed to play games for an hour at the weekend if he behaves and completes his chores at school, which is why they now refer to using the phone as “a privilege.”

In a new interview with Huffington Post, Joe explained his and Stacey’s “battle” with their son and his weekly reward of screen time. He said: “But even that, me and Stacey begrudgingly let him have that.

We keep a watchful eye on what he’s doing and what games he’s playing even though it’s challenging because it’s a constant battle. You are aware of it, but it does concern us.

Joe explained that it’s a balancing act because he is aware that their social life includes a lot of phone access with their older children. He still wants to monitor their usage to make sure they are secure, though.

Joe acknowledges there is “no real right or wrong” with the couple when it comes to using the internet. Every parent “muddling through” and making mistakes, he continued.

Fans of the close-knit family’s life are getting a glimpse into it with their new reality series Stacey &amp, Joe: Full House, which the couple are known for keeping it real. Their series provides a realistic view of their daily routines, including their hectic careers and homes.

The pair, who tied the knot in 2022, revealed they’ve turned to marriage therapy to keep their relationship on track. A source recently told OK! that Stacey and Joe may have underplayed how big a step having cameras around for every tricky moment would be.

They underestimated how challenging it would be to produce this reality show, the source claimed. Having cameras around and watching it back wasn’t always easy. They won’t deny that the work and commitment to balancing their relationship have been difficult.

The source adds that they are pleased that they made an open letter about couple therapy. They are receiving therapy because they are in love and never want to end their relationship. Yes, there have been ups and downs and a lot of roller coasters, but they both know therapy is the best way to improve their relationship and address their issues.

Gov Mbah Mourns As ‘Gwo Gwo Gwo Ngwo’ Singer, Mike Ejeagha Dies At 95

The legend of music legend, “Generic” Mike Ejeagha, passed away in the hands of the governor of Enugu State, Peter Mbah, who has expressed grief over his passing.

He claimed that the passing of the late singer left a void too difficult to fill.

Mbah described Ejeagha as a straightforward and casual person with a fan base that spans numerous international borders.

On Friday night, the “Gwo gwo gwo gwo ngwo” crooner’s passing was made known to the general public.

The governor assured that his administration would continue to make the legend immortal in death in response to the depressing development.

Mbah had long desired the icon’s legacy by reconstructing the well-known Obinagu Road and the adjacent Chief Mike Ejeagha Crescent, which successive state governments have left unfulfilled.

In his honor, he also changed Obinagu Road to Chief Mike Ejeagha Road.

The governor paid the musician’s Enugu-born son a sincere tribute by posting a picture to his verified social media accounts.

He continued, “I’m deeply saddened by the passing of Gentleman Mike Ejeagha, a legend in music.” Mike Ejeagha was an illustrious, revered, and cultural ambassador.

He had an easygoing personality and humility that belied his acclaim as one of the best musicians of his generation. I’ll always be fond of the warmth and wisdom he radiated, and the joy he found in the ordinary.

The governor continued, “This is a loss for Enugu State, the entire music industry, and the entire country as well. Ejeagha’s extraordinary talent and genius came from his ability to create timeless songs that transcend all cultures using simple, traditional folktales.

He claimed that Ejeagha’s fan base was unmatched because he was easily recognized as one of music’s most recognizable voices.

His passing leaves a sizable void that will be challenging to fill. However, he’s left behind a lifetime of legacy.

“I extend my sincerest condolences to the Ejeagha family and reassure them of our support on behalf of the Enugu State government.”

We as a government would ensure that his memory was properly immortalized.
