Ehi Ogbebor, an interior decorator, has gone public to reveal her relationship with Musiliu ‘MC Oluomo’ Akinsanya, Lagos chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers (NURTW).

She took to her Instastory to put out emoji-laden photos of her spending time with Akinsanya.

Although Oluomo’s face was covered with emojis, Ogbebor is seen giving the NURTW chairman a kiss on the cheek.

Included in Ogbebor’s photo of Oluomo was an inscription that read “king” alongside a love emoji below his torso.

Ogbebor also shared footage of her spraying naira notes on MC Oluomo as he danced at the 5th coronation anniversary of the Oluwo of Iwo Land, which held on Saturday.

As word of her relationship spread, Ogbebor put out a video refuting claims that her lover bankrolled her business.

“I’m beating my chest to say it. No man spent one dime on my house. If you did and you’re a man and you don’t speak up, God will punish you. I’m betting a $100,000. Come out if you claim to have bankrolled me,” she said.

“Or you spent one Naira in my business or building my house. I built my house myself. I’m on the road at times, four days a week. I do it for myself and my kids. Stop ruing the minds of these little girls.

“You’re making them think they have to be with men for money. Beyonce is with Jay-z. Is he bankrolling her? What are you teaching girls? I will be with a man I care about. He doesn’t need to give me a dime because I don’t need it!

“Come out if you’ve bankrolled me; given me money to go and do business. You better speak. I just bet $100,000.”

The late actress Folake Aliu, also know as Orisa Bunmi was laid to rest in her home town in Isin Ila in Kwara State.

May she continue to rest in peace, Amen.

Actor and movie producer, Afeez Owo has shared a photo of late actress Folake Aremu aka Orisabunmi’s corpse on social media and that act has gotten him into trouble with some of his fans.

The 60 year old Yoruba actress Folake Aremu, popularly known as Orisabunmi, died at 11 pm on Tuesday night after a brief illness. Her death is coming four months after ex-husband Jimoh Aliu, better known as Aworo, died.

President of the Theatre Arts And Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) Bolaji Amusan, aka Mr Latin, confirmed she died on Tuesday night.

It is so sad we lost a Priceless Jewel, a very rare gem in the Nigerian film industry, Chief Mrs Folakemi Aremu, aka Orisabunmi, to the cold hands of death last night.” he wrote.

Mourning her moments ago on Instagram, Afeez Owo shared a photo of her corpse in a coffin and many of his followers found it quite offensive.

One Captain Ade wrote “Posting this kind of pic is so wrong.Kindly take it down Sir as this isn’t even good for the sight.We didn’t see any of her post on your pages when she was alive.Kindly pull down this image and it is demeaning and allow the dead to rest.”

A Temitope while responding to Captain Ade wrote ” exactly what I said,wen dey are a life, dey don’t post dem,wen dey died dey start doing eye services, stupid industry”

Kwara State Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq has described the death of Folake Aremu, a thespian popularly known as Orisabunmi, as the end of a glorious era in the film-making industry.

“The Governor joins the rest of the country, especially Kwara people, to mourn the death of the great Orisabunmi who was one of the prides of the state on the continental artistic stage. He recalls her exploits in the 1980s through early 2000s when she beautifully depicted the great African subculture in the Yoruba movie industry. Her pacifist roles and the bravery she exuded in most of her appearances were quite legendary and would be sorely missed,” according to a statement by Chief Press Secretary Rafiu Ajakaye.

“The Governor describes Orisabunmi as one of the ‘last men standing’ in the tradition she represented in the Nollywood. His Excellency commiserates with the family of the deceased and the entire Nollywood community.

“The Governor prays to the Almighty God to console her family for this huge loss, and to forgive her shortcomings.”

Happy birthday to my great Pastor.

I thank God for granting you the wisdom and knowledge to pastor the congregation.

Wishing you good health and many more birthdays to come. Have a blessed birthday.

Best regards
