I'M THE ONLY BILLIONAIRE'S CHILD IN THE WORLD WHO HAS MADE A NAME AND FORTUNE FOR HIMSELF - SINGER DAVIDO CLAIMS

Singer Davido has declared that he is the only billionaire’s child in the world who has successfully built a personal name and fortune independent of his family’s wealth. 

Speaking during an appearance on the Vibes Podcast, the award-winning artiste said people often celebrate “grass-to-grace” success stories but rarely acknowledge those born into wealthy families who go on to carve out their own path and achieve remarkable success. 

Davido argued that while many admire individuals who rise from poverty to riches, it is equally challenging for the child of a billionaire to establish an independent identity and earn widespread recognition. 

According to him, “They love the grass-to-grace story, the young boy that was poor and became rich. But which other billionaire’s child do you know in the world, not talking about Africa, that has made a name for himself and also made a lot of money? You can’t count, you can’t name one apart from me.”

CAN OPPOSES N50,000 FINE FOR PREACHING IN COMMERCIAL BUSES, SAYS IT VIOLATES NIGERIANS CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS, URGES TINUBU TO REJECT BILL

Image
The Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), South-West zone, has rejected the proposed ban on preaching inside commercial vehicles, warning that the measure could violate Nigerians’ constitutional rights. The reaction follows the passage of the Federal Road Safety Corps (Amendment) Bill, 2026, by the Senate. The bill proposes a ₦50,000 fine for anyone convicted of hawking, trading or preaching inside commercial vehicles. It also prescribes a ₦50,000 fine, six months’ imprisonment, or both for motorists who refuse to cooperate with FRSC officials during roadside breath tests conducted on reasonable suspicion. In a statement by its South-West Chairman, Bishop Barnabas Akinsanya, CAN expressed “serious concerns” over the bill, “particularly the provision prescribing sanctions for preaching in commercial buses and the outright prohibition of hawking in such vehicles.” The association said, “While government has a constitutional responsibility to ensure public safety, it also ha...

MONEY WON'T MATTER IN 2036. IT WOULD BECOME IRRELEVANT IN THE FUTURE - BILLIONAIRE ELON MUSK DECLARES

Image
Billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk has predicted that money could become irrelevant by 2036 as artificial intelligence and robots become capable of producing more goods and services than humans could ever consume. Speaking during an interview with The Economist, Musk declared, “Money won’t matter in 2036.” When interviewer Zanny Minton Beddoes questioned the prediction, Musk explained, “What do you want money for? You want money for goods and services, right? You want money for obviously food, housing, transport, entertainment.” He argued that once AI and robots make those essentials abundantly available, “If the robots and AI are providing more goods and services than any human could possibly consume, what do you need money for in that case?” On concerns about millions of people losing their jobs to AI, Musk suggested governments could directly support citizens financially. “I think the Treasury should just simply issue people cheques,” he said. When Beddoes warned that pr...

U.S LAWMAKER JOHN JAMES TELLS NIGERIA TO FREE NNAMDI KANU OR RISK LOSING AMERICAN AID

Image
A United States Congressman, John James, has called on the Nigerian government to either release the detained leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, or face possible cuts in US financial support. Speaking during a plenary session of the US House of Representatives, James urged lawmakers to back H.Res. 1321, a resolution he introduced seeking a fresh trial for Kanu in line with Nigeria’s Constitution and international human rights standards. The Michigan lawmaker alleged that Kanu’s prosecution was part of a broader pattern of persecution against Christians in Nigeria. “Since 2019, tens of thousands of Christians in Nigeria have been sla¥ghtered as part of a sustained pattern of religiously motivated v+olence by Islamist jihadists ignored or enabled by the Nigerian government,” he said. James further claimed extremist groups such as Boko Haram had operated without meaningful resistance from Nigerian authorities, describing Kanu as “a courag...
