Wizkid is set to drop another album as his “Made in Lagos”  album clocks one year of release.

On October 29, the artist, while appreciating fans via his Instagram page for their support since his fourth album dropped a year ago, hinted that his next album will be released on the last day of his tour.

Wizkid’s tour which began on September 10 will end on January 22, 2022.

He further announced his next album will be titled “More Love Less Ego.”

“1 year already, thank you for riding with me. I’m just very grateful for all the love and blessings. Promised not to make you wait too long for the next one, “More Love Less Ego” dropping on the last day of tour. I love you,” he captioned his post.

During the week, self-styled celebrity bar man Pascal Chubuike Okechukwu, popularly known as Cubana Chief Priest, publicly called out BBNaija ex-housemate Maria Benjamin, for allegedly snatching his sister’s husband and threatening her life.

On October 24, Peoples Gazette had reported that the businessman took a message to his Instagram page to call out the ex-housemate.

“@grandfish1 @Iam_lolofish_27 I get dollars for you, I get pounds for you, there’s nothing sweeter than family, wives stay woke girls like @mariachikebenjamin are coming for your husbands, she stole my sisters husband as if that’s not enough, she is sending her threats, that I won’t let it slide, Kelvin I Dey find una come that Dubai nothing must happen to my sister,” he captioned his post.

He then posted more receipts online to cement his claims including screenshots of a chat between his sister and Maria and some videos.

Cubana Chief Priest further said he was particularly disappointed in Kelvin for allowing his cheating scandal, which he also engage in, get the best of his marriage with his sister.

“Kelvin [I] am so ashamed of you, all of us Dey street, you no carry woman pass anybody but we can never make home miserable for our woman to the point a side chick calls your wife to threaten her life…” he added.

Although Maria is yet to directly respond to the accusations labelled against her, the light skinned celebrity dropped a cryptic message on her Instagram story saying “if I can’t have him nobody can.”

Maria was not the only trendy BBNaija housemate this week.

Another “Shine Ya Eye” housemate Cross, posted his nude video on snap chat on October 27, captioning his great reveal “showtime”.

In an interview with TVC, Cross explained his reveal was accidental, as he is yet to get familiar with the application’s new features.

“It was a simple mistake, it wasn’t a big deal, it was a mistake. Like I said earlier, I’m not really back with my phone so once in a while, I get to use it. So I didn’t know that Snapchat has changed a lot of its features.”

“I’m just a guy that just wants to have a good time and in the process make a lot of money to provide for his family. So it was just a simple mistake, so anybody that is saying anything out of it, Ndooo,” Cross said.

Nevertheless, many commenters online do not buy his excuse as they believe that the ex-housemate intentionally revealed his privates online.
