Uju-Ken Ohanenye, the recently ousted Minister of Women Affairs, was dismissed from her position due to what the presidency characterized as “constant drama” that had become a source of embarrassment for the administration, according to various sources.
Ohanenye, known for her forthright demeanor, allegedly created significant discord within the ministry through her assertive restructuring initiatives.
Insiders who spoke to Punch indicated that a major factor tarnishing her reputation was a controversial threat to initiate legal action against the United Nations.
She accused the organization of improperly managing and withholding funds allocated for Nigeria, a claim that sparked a diplomatic controversy.
Additionally, her tumultuous tenure was marked by disruptions at two significant events in Abuja, where she reportedly demanded that the organizers secure clearances from her ministry prior to the events, resulting in public incidents that attracted widespread criticism.
“The woman is a controversial person. She stepped on toes with her conduct and the President couldn’t curtail her excesses any longer. She is too dramatic as a minister. We knew she couldn’t go far”, said a source at the APC secretariat.
In other news, Grammy-winning Nigerian artist Wizkid has ignited discussions online following the circulation of an unedited photograph of him.
The image, posted by the Instagram account @blackxcellence, features the 34-year-old musician with a noticeably darker skin tone and visible wrinkles. Accompanied by the caption “a close-up of Wizkid’s face,” the post elicited a range of responses, from humor to criticism.
Some users drew comparisons to fellow artist Davido, such as @julian_baller’s comment, “Davido never caught unfresh 😂,” suggesting that Wizkid’s appearance made Davido appear more youthful.
Another commenter, @Mr.azeezofficial, expressed disapproval, stating, “This guy throwback better pass he recent, NA MAKE UP & EDITING DEY HELP AM NOW. Say no to drugz guys.”
Contributing to the ongoing rivalry between fans of Wizkid and Davido, @obaxperience1 remarked, “See who him fans dey call Davido Osakpolor. Sometimes I dey wonder wetin dey inspire Wizkid fans to insult Davido cos Wizkid no reach Davido in anyway for life.”
