During an interview with Oyinmomo TV, veteran Yoruba Nollywood actor Peter Fatomilola shared insights into his early life, highlighting how his upbringing influenced both his spiritual beliefs and career. Growing up in Ekiti, he was deeply rooted in traditional worship, a heritage passed down from his father, who was the head of Ifa priests in their community. This early exposure to Ifa practices significantly shaped his worldview and spiritual journey. Despite his strong inclination toward traditional worship, Fatomilola’s household was one of contrasting beliefs. His mother was a devout Christian who frequently urged him to join her at church, but he preferred staying with his father to learn about Ifa. This difference in religious perspectives often created tension, as his mother was displeased with his reluctance to embrace Christianity. While recognizing the potential strain on the family, Fatomilola’s father eventually intervened, insisting that he accompany his mothe...

The General Overseer of Mountain of Fire and Miracle Ministries (MFM), Dr. Daniel Olukoya has warned men that not marrying a woman they disvirgined can lead to serious consequences.    While preaching in his church, Odukoya said men who deflowered women, form a covenant with them and that this can lead to a lifetime of spiritual bondage.    Olukoya warned that this covenant can also transfer demonic influences to future partners, causing havoc in their lives. “If you’re a man and you have disvirgined somebody or more than one lady. Don’t be surprised if your life is upside down. Because when you disvirgin a woman, you wet your male organ with the blood from that woman. So you have formed a covenant with that woman. So to now say you did not marry the person is a serious problem you have caused for yourself. It will go from generation to generation unless you break it. If the girl you disvirgin is now demonic, then you have formed a covenant with a girl an...

The Oluwo of Iwoland, Oba Abdulrosheed Adewale Akanbi, has alleged that the Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Enitan Ogunwusi, is behind efforts to remove him from his position as the Oluwo of Iwo. In a statement released on Friday in Osogbo, Osun State, Oba Akanbi claimed that despite his significant role in Oba Ogunwusi’s ascension to the throne, the Ooni has been working against him. Dismissing the purported plot as futile, the Oluwo asserted, “No one can remove me as Oluwo. No one can harm me, and no one can bring me down.” He further stated that he was instrumental in Oba Ogunwusi’s emergence as the Ooni of Ife in 2015 and expressed disappointment that the same person he once supported is allegedly attempting to destabilize his reign. God used me to play a vital role in the installation of Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi as the Ooni of Ife but, to my surprise, the same person I helped to the throne has been planning evil against me. “He orchestrated my suspension from the Osun State Counc...

Yoruba actress Nike Alajogun has opened up about how the personal challenges she faced pushed her to change her religion, ultimately helping her overcome her difficulties. In a video on Ojopagogo TV’s official YouTube channel, she explained her transition from Christianity to Islam, and eventually to traditionalism, after struggling with a serious illness. She shared, “I went through a tough ordeal with a pastor for 15 years, which forced me to leave the church. A friend then introduced me to Islam and explained that I didn’t have to attend the mosque or church, and I could pray at home. I accepted Islam and followed it fervently, even making seven trips to Mecca. But when I became seriously ill, none of my Muslim friends supported me, so I turned to traditionalism. I left Christianity, then Islam, to find a cure for my sickness. The traditionalists were the only ones who gave me the real insight into what was happening to me and promised that I would recover.”

This is coming as price war in the downstream oil sector intensified on Tuesday as major oil marketers moved to offer a lower price against the gantry loading cost of N825 per litre set by Dangote Petroleum Refinery. This development followed a revelation by marketers that the landing cost of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) imported into Nigeria has dropped to N774.72 per litre. Marketers said the continued price plunge may lead to a reduction in the pump prices of PMS to about N800 per litre. Dealers said the N774.72 per litre landing cost, which factors in various expenses including shipping, import duties, and exchange rates, is a considerable reduction of N50.28 from the N825 per litre offered at the loading gantry of the Dangote Petroleum Refinery. The situation, according to industry stakeholders, has ignited a price war, with retail marketers now opting to dump the refinery products for imported products on the basis of lower pricing. Findings also revealed that this d...

disappointed. They also expressed concerns about Chief Akinpelu’s past actions, which they believe are unbecoming of his office. Balogun, the immediate past senator representing Oyo South Senatorial District and the younger brother of the immediate past Olubadan, Oba Lekan Balogun, noted in the statement that as far as the family is concerned, “a leopard cannot change its skin when Chief Akinpelu is involved but one can only hope that when a supposed advice is adversary, the Council members should smell it.” “Ordinarily and when a straight-forward person has such opportunity of having garnered experience of those number of years, such should become handy for the betterment of such an office, but it is unfortunate that Chief Akinpelu is not so moulded. “Even, as recent as the tenure of his former and late Principal, Oba Lekan Balogun, it was a settled matter that only court judgment or injunction could stop the scheduled installation of any Mogaji or Baale. “It was not once ...
