“All Nigerians, guess what? CNN news invite me for an interview… I ran away!
“They want to disgrace me, they want to embarrass me. I can’t speak good English oooo.”
Known for speaking in a unique blend of Yoruba, pidgin, and heavily-accented English, Lege admitted with his signature dramatic flair that he wasn’t about to let himself become a global meme.

In other news, for years, whispers and rumours trailed movie actress Temitope Solaja ‘Aruga’s’ evolving looks.
In the most candid part of her Talk to B interview with Biola Bayo, she set the record straight and confirmed what many had speculated. Temitope revealed that she had a liposuction and BBL. The actress was quick to add that the surgeries were for her, not for any man or industry pressure. She told Biola Bayo:
“I love fashion. I love to dress up. But my body didn’t align with my style.
I did the procedure to feel better in my own skin. When I dress, I want to look in the mirror and say, ‘Girl, you look good.’”
The actress also fixed her teeth, after an accident left her feeling insecure. Despite fears of backlash, the response to her transformation has been overwhelmingly positive, according to Temitope.
