Shockwaves are reverberating across Yorùbáland and the global Yorùbá diaspora following the sudden death of the Baba Ọba (King’s Father) of the famed Oyotunji African Village in South Carolina, USA.

The Moment You Are Breaking Her, Be Ready to Break Me: Nkechi Blessing’s Partner Fires Back at TAMPAN
Controversial Nollywood actress, Nkechi Blessing Sunday, was recently suspended and blacklisted by the Theatre Arts and Motion Pictures Practitioners Association of Nigeria (TAMPAN) and her man, Falegan Opeyemi, has reacted to the development.
Recall that Nkechi Blessing and her colleague, Iyabo Ojo, were suspended and blacklisted in the industry and filmmakers were warned not to work with them.
Speaking authoritatively, one of the board members, Jide Kosoko noted that the association will work against Nkechi Blessing in the industry and continued that if anyone thought they were above the law, they would frustrate them out of the industry.
In reaction to his woman’s suspension, Falegan took to his Instagram page to send a note of warning to TAMPAN.
He told them to be ready for him. According to him, the association had shown a pure neglect of responsibilities and as well as misplaced priorities.
Speaking further, Falegan said that Nkechi Blessing was his soul mate and whoever wanted to mess with her should be ready for him too.
In his words:
“Before you attempt to silence her or frustrate her, kindly be ready for me.
What your association has shown is pure misplaced priorities and dereliction of duties.
I respect all elders without fear because no human being is God. It’s a pain to the heart knowing wisdom is required but folly prevails. She is my soul mate and the moment you are breaking her then be ready to break me.”
A number of Nigerians took to social media to react to Falegan’s post and majority of them seemed impressed by how he stood by his woman.
