In other entertainment news, child comedian, Kiriku, born, Victory Enorense, has revealed why he bought a new car for his father.

He said his dad’s car was old and always giving him issues so he discussed with his uncle, Umbrella Boy and they decided to change it for him.

The content creator revealed that when they were still up and coming in the online content creation industry, they both agreed to buy a car for his father once they start making money.

For the skit-maker, getting a new car for his dad was him fulfilling a promise he made to himself.

Kiriku, popularly known for his slang, ‘Abeg shift’, made the revelation during an interview as he talked about his personal life and future plans.

Kiriku said; “His car was no longer good, and we decided to buy a new one for him. We did that because the old car was giving him issues. Me and my uncle decided that immediately we started making money, we would get him (my dad) a car.”

He further talked about his early interest in comedy and how Emmanuella motivated him to become a skit-maker when he was four years old.

According to the preteen, he struggled to memorise his lines when he was just starting, so his uncle made him realise that he cannot master it all at once.

But that is now a thing of the past because Umbrella Boy taught him how to learn his lines and with time he became good at it.

Kiriku said; “I used to watch the videos of child skit makers such as Emmanuella. I became more interested when I started following people to locations to shoot skits. That was how I started.

“I couldn’t master my lines at once when I started out at the age of four. However, my uncle later taught me how to take my lines one after the other. I am better at it now though.”

He also said some of the things that he sees as achievements so far, are having large number of followers on all social media platforms as well as being nominated for awards.

Meanwhile, CorrectNG reported that beautiful Nigerian actress, Nazo Ekezie said that she does not fancy being with a man who is poor.

She stated this in an interview with Saturday Beats while cautioning poor men to stay clear of her because she has no business with them.

Nazo came under fire recently after she took to her Instagram page to declare that she has no business with a man who is not wealthy.

The backlash that trailed the pretty thespian’s statement on social media forced her to delete the post from her page.

However, speaking on the matter again, Nazo Ekezie reiterated her position and noted that she is not looking for a man she can build or invest in.

The actress said that though she is not one who is qualified to give relationship advice, her IG post was meant to entertain netizens but they took it another way then judged her and accused her of being a gold digger.

The screen diva further said that her primary concern is being able to take care of herself and wanting her fellow women to do same for themselves.

Nazo explained that she has no energy for dealing with men, especially the poor ones, which is why she prefers they stay away from her.

In her words; “I don’t understand how I made a ‘happy’ post, and people turned it to a ‘bad’ post. Since then, I have got a lot of ‘nonsense’ messages, especially from poor men.

If you are a poor man, I don’t have any business with you. I am not looking for a man I am going to build. I don’t have the energy for that. I will rather build myself. Whenever I write anything motivational, I am talking about myself.”

I’d keep dropping these hits, classic albums, selling out my shows, however far it takes me I’m good with it long as i can feed my family….”

He described as condescending and degrading the attacks Wizzy targeted at artistes in the Hip Hop genre.

He wrote; ”The last few days had me reflecting, looking back at how far I’ve come, the Wins and the Losses, whatever rap may or may not be, it got me this, everything i have, the cult like fans who by far are the best part of everything.

I said that to say i’m disappointed, everyone knows I’m a big wizkid fan, maybe even a d**k rider on twitter but rn I’m disappointed, i am, I can’t hide my emotions, I wasn’t even mad at the magazine article, those are conversations I’ve even had behind the scenes, but the actions that followed can’t be defended, heavily degrading and undeserved but I’d keep doing my thing, carrying the most bashed and the most attacked genre on my back, showing the world what a Nigerian rapper looks like.

I’d keep dropping these hits, classic albums, selling out my shows, however far it takes me I’m good with it long as i can feed my family….”

He captioned the post; ”HEART & SOUL”

Meanwhile, On Air Personality, Daddy Freeze has said music superstar, Wizkid is almost on the same level with late Afrobeats legend, Fela Anikulapo-Kuti.

The media personality stated this in a video shared on his social media page while wading into the feud between Wiz and rappers in the industry.

Wiz also said Nigerian rappers as non-rappers who lack development and went on to list the South Africa’s Nasty C and Ghana’s Sarkodie as the ‘real rappers’ in Africa.

In reaction, Freeze opined that for Wizkid to have made that comment, it comes from a place of objectivity soaked in experience.

He said the Ojuelegba crooner has achieved a lot and should be taken seriously whenever he gives constructive criticisms.

The OAP who aid he is backing Big Wiz further said only a handful of artistes in Nigeria can boast of the achievements attached to Wizkid’s name in the music industry.

Daddy Freeze said; “When it comes to music in Nigeria as a whole, Wizkid is almost on the level of Fela then. What he (Wizkid) has been able to do, not many people can achieve it, when he says something, hear him out, there is one thing in me that makes me different from many people I might not like you but if you speak the truth I will support you…

The truth is the truth and it will set you free. When you see the truth and started ignoring the truth because of the person carrying the truth we become like Nigerian politicians, all of them are the same but they will make one look worse than the rest of them.”

In other news, Nigerian kid comedian and content creator, Kiriku, whose real name is Victory Enorense, has revealed why he bought a new car for his father.

He said his dad’s car was old and always giving him issues so he discussed with his uncle, Umbrella Boy and they decided to change it for him.

According to Kiriku, when they were still up and coming in the online content creation industry, they both agreed to buy a car for his father once they start making money.

For the skit-maker, getting a new car for his dad was him fulfilling a promise he made to himself.

Kiriku, popularly known for his slang, ‘Abeg shift’, made the revelation during an interview as he talked about his personal life and future plans.

Kiriku said; “His car was no longer good, and we decided to buy a new one for him. We did that because the old car was giving him issues. Me and my uncle decided that immediately we started making money, we would get him (my dad) a car.”

He further talked about his early interest in comedy and how Emmanuella motivated him to become a skit-maker when he was four years old.

According to the preteen, he struggled to memorise his lines when he was just starting, so his uncle made him realise that he cannot master it all at once.

But that is now a thing of the past because Umbrella Boy taught him how to learn his lines and with time he became good at it.
