I’m writing all this today because I want to speak to you who are going through depression especially at a young age,” she added.

Eddy Montana says failed marriage ruined his career

If you remember the famous early 2000s group, ‘Remedies’, then you will remember Eddy Montana.

In an interview with Punch, the singer who was once married to Kenny Saint Brown said the crisis in their marriage affected his music career.

I don’t have any low point apart from my failed marriage. Things were going fine for me until I started having problems with my marriage. It was possible I could have saved it if I had put in more effort but I am also human. Right now, I have grown and I know we all make mistakes as humans. I made my mistakes and she (Kenny Saint Best) must have made hers too,” he said.

For years, I did not put out songs because I broke down emotionally. My doctor didn’t want me to get back to work because of my state of health and mind. I lost my marriage and my kids were not with me as well. I had to take a break for my health and my children because different stories were written about me and I didn’t want my kids to grow up with that tension. Even though my music suffered, it was very important for me to take a break at that time,” he added.


Eniola Badmus says she has yet received her money

More than three months after Nigerian actress, Eniola Badmus, emerged the winner of the reality TV show — Celebrity Housemates — the actress says she has yet received the N7 million cash prize.

Speaking with Hip TV, Badmus said, “This is one thing I really don’t want to discuss right now because Celebrity Housemate was for me a platform where I could learn one or two things and was able to coexist with other people, and learn things that we were not used to in our house that we had to go out to learn.

Also, about the money, I’ve yet to receive it. To me, I see them like a scam but we will sort it out.”
