Nollywood actress Toyin Abraham has made an appeal to Nigerians who are involved in drug use. In a message shared on a popular micro-blogging platform, she urged drug users to stop and highlighted the destructive impact drugs can have on their lives. Additionally, she offered her assistance to those in need of help.

Abraham emphasized the importance of refraining from drug use, emphasizing that it can lead to significant negative consequences. She expressed her willingness to provide support and assistance to those struggling with drug addiction. The actress concluded her message with words of love and positivity.

The plea from Toyin Abraham comes in the wake of Nigerian singer Solidstar’s revelation about his personal battle with drug abuse and addiction. Solidstar had shared his near-death experience resulting from drug addiction, shedding light on the dangers of substance abuse.

Notably, the issue of drugs in the Nigerian entertainment industry has been a topic of discussion. Media entrepreneur and fashionista Noble Igwe previously likened drugs to food in the industry, sparking further conversations about the prevalence and impact of drug use among entertainers.

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has also taken action against drug-related offenses in the entertainment industry. Skit maker De General was arrested by the agency for alleged drug possession, further raising concerns and prompting discussions about drug abuse in the sector.

Toyin Abraham’s appeal serves as a call for individuals involved in drug use to reconsider their actions and seek help. Her offer to provide support reflects a compassionate approach to addressing the issue and promoting a healthier lifestyle.

Abuja-Lokoja Highway Gridlock: FRSC Blames Motorists’ Impatience

The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) has expressed frustration over motorists’ lack of cooperation in easing the gridlock on the Abuja-Lokoja highway.

Kogi State Sector Commander, Kumar Tsukwam, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that officials had been battling since Sunday to clear the traffic, which stretched from Ogbobo/Ozi to the Murtala Mohammed Bridge in Koton-Karfe.

He attributed the gridlock to ongoing road construction, broken-down vehicles on the single lane, and motorists’ impatience.
“Some drivers blocked opposing lanes, worsening the situation. We are doing our best to restore free movement for travellers,” Tsukwam said.

Motorists and commuters lamented the hardship caused by the standstill. Mohammed Yusuf, a driver, said he spent nine hours travelling from Abuja to Lokoja on Sunday.
“I left Abuja before 3 p.m. but didn’t reach Lokoja until midnight. The fuel wasted on the road is unbearable, especially with current prices,” he said.

Another traveller, Christopher Adamu, recounted spending the entire night in traffic after leaving Abuja in the evening. He urged authorities to take urgent measures to address the situation.

NAN reports that a construction company is currently working on the right lane of the highway between Koton-Karfe and Abaji, forcing traffic onto a single lane and worsening congestion.


Do you want me to make this more hard-news (short, direct, fact-heavy) or human-interest focused (emphasizing the commuters’ suffering and quotes)?

By: Fabian Apechihin

Nigerian singer and Nollywood actor, Chike Osebuka, has dismissed the idea of marriage, describing it as a “stupid step” while stressing that his happiness is tied to financial stability.

The 32-year-old artiste made this known during an interview with media personality Chude Jideonwo, where he revealed that he currently has no plans to settle down.

“In my personal opinion, I think it’s a stupid step to get married. For me to be happy, I need a lot of money. This is not even carnal—I just like money. I want money,” Chike stated.

Reflecting on his career, the singer admitted he never imagined music would become his profession until after completing university.

“I would say maybe right after my university, I knew music is what I’ll do for a living. Before then, I just used to sing and disturb everybody around me,” he said.

Chike also recalled enduring tough financial times early in his career, which pushed him into acting roles for about two years just to stay afloat.

Would you like me to make this rewrite more formal for a news report or more conversational for entertainment blogs?
