Bovi and his wife, Christabel.Bovi and his wife, Christabel.
Nigerian comedian, Bovi, who has been married to his wife, Christabel for over six years, has spoken about what keeps his marriage going strong.
Coming at a time when more and more celebrity marriages seem to be hitting the rocks, Bovi who was a guest on Beat FM this morning said, ‘Marriage? It affects many artistes. But there are married successful entertainers. What’s good for the goose may not be good for the gander.
My wedding ring lasted only one week. I don’t like rings. And my wife understands. We follow a practical approach to marriage. A ring doesn’t stop my from being good or bad’.

Drama King: The many times Burna Boy has courted controversies

Nigerian dancehall act, Damini Ogulu popularly known as Burna Boy is one act who can’t seem to catch a break and distance himself from damning controversies.
Blessed with irrefutable musical talent, the Port Harcourt-bred singer has constantly found himself enmeshed in various unsavoury face-offs with the media, fans and even associates.
In the light of his fresh baby mama drama, we decided to take a quick check of the many times the singer has ruffled feathers.
1. Back in 2013 when Burna Boy was just a rising star on the roster of Aristokrat RecordsNET exclusively gathered he had developed an ‘uncontrollable’ attitude with the music label.
He can’t be told anything to do, he’s a big boy right now. He won’t just listen anymore, the label are frustrated with his actions,’ a source told NET at the time.
He would later leave the label and go on to form his own Spaceship Entertainment in 2015.
2. NET also gathered in 2013 that Burna Boy might have done time in jail as a minor in the UK for being a murder accomplice in 2010 – a period of his life he would apparently rather not acknowledge.

3. His nothing-but-briefs ‘tribute’ appearance at the 2013 Felabration drew the ire of the late Afrobeat legend’s family, who called the singer’s appearance as inappropriate and disrespectful to Fela’s legacy.

4. In January 2015, the dance hall act threatened Zimbabwean act, Buffalo Soulja after both camps were reportedly involved in a pool side brawl in South Africa.
5. Burna Boy in an Instagram post in May 2015 threatened to cause bodily harm to bloggers who he believed to be peddling false reports about him.
These bloggers be writing shit thinking its a game until I see yall face to face one day nd hospitalize or murk u. We gon meet 1day #onsight‘ he threatened.

6. The singer posed with a gun on Instagram in June 2015 and wrote in the caption, ‘This is not a movie or music video. Truss mi daddy!!,’
This despite being the face of some corporate organisations. He later deleted the picture after much criticism.
7. Burna Boy voiced his disappointment at a perceived intentional snub by MTV Base‘s 2015 MAMA nominations in June of same year. Tweeting his frustrations, he wrote: ‘I knew I wasn’t gunna win SHXT cuz I never get wat I deserve but damn this is quite deep.’
The award body was forced to reply the singer that it didn’t leave him out of the list to spite him.
8. Barely two weeks ago, Orbeat – the producer of Burna’s hit song, ‘Soke’ – called out the singer for owing him for his production efforts and also the allegedly unauthorized release of the single, ‘Acting Bad’.
9. Burna Boy is currently embroiled in a controversy for allegedly putting an unknown lady in the family way and shying away from his responsibilities.
He has seemingly denied being responsible for the lady’s pregnancy, saying in a recent clip posted on social media: ‘fu**ked that girl once and now she’s claiming that she’s pregnant.’

If only the talented singer will curb his excesses and focus more on his musical career.

Nollywood actress, Toyin Aimakhu‘s ex-boyfriend, Seun Egbegbe has reportedly signed an undertaking not to threaten the Edo State-born actress.
The popular socialite and Ebony Films boss, who took to Instagram yesterday to tender an apology to the Alakada actress, according to reports, was arrested, detained and later released on bail two weeks ago because of his threats towards her.

Seun, who had made some disparaging comments concerning Aimakhu and threatened to deal with any producer who offers the actress any job, we gathered was summoned by the Lagos State Police command when Toyin Aimakhu arrived in Nigeria.
Aimakhu, who reportedly went to the station in company of her lawyer, Bosun Osifowora stated that Seun Egbegbe’s threats have affected her business, with colleagues and producers afraid of inviting her for movie shoots because they are aware of his violent nature.
While at the Commissioner of Police’s office, Seun, we learnt withdrew his threat, prostrated and signed an undertaking to never to hurt or disturb Toyin whether privately or in company of people.
He also reportedly undertook to make a new video to that effect with Goldmine TV,where the initial threat video which went viral was broadcast, and also to report fortnightly at the CP’s office in Ikeja and he has also been placed under watch.
All efforts made to reach Seun Egbegbe for his side of the story were unsuccessful.

He might be single with no known baby mama or lover, but he has just said he’s old enough to get married.
Rapper Phyno was on Beat FM earlier today to talk about his forthcoming second studio album tentatively titled ‘Phyno the Playmaker’, where he was asked about getting married.

He began by reacting to a recent comment made by Flavour, where he said ‘marriage is not for everyone’.
Phyno said, ‘I think Flavour is right about entertainers and marriage. Right to some extent and wrong to some extent. Depends on your wife. If your wife is jealous, she may not be able to handle it’.
He continued, ‘For me, talking about marriage, when it happens it happens. I’m old enough to marry. But I’m married to the music right now’.
