Several Nollywood actors are in the news today for so many reasons. With so many goofs and cheers, our Nigerian movie stars never cease to entertain fans both on-screen and off-screen. From scandals, to controversies, and landmark achievements, here, we round up the top 5 stories making the rounds in Nollywoood today.

  1. Toyin Aihmakhu’s ex-husband now dating another actress

Niyi and Seyi Edun pictured with the prophetessEver since recently rebranded Yoruba actress, Toyin Abraham’s marriage to actor Adeniyi Johnson crashed like a pack of badly stacked cards on August 2015, all eyes have been on them.

The marriage was contracted on July 3, 2013.

While Toyin is yet to find love, the same cannot be said of her ex-beau, Niyi.

The actor is said to be neck-deep in love with another actress, Seyi Edun. Despite rebuttals by the lovers, an Instagram post by popular Prophetess Mary Olanbiwoninu has confirmed their affair. The two lovebirds were seen receiving blessings from the prophetess who also doubles as their godmother. Mrs. Olanbiwoninu, shared a photo of the couple with the caption, ““’My favourite couple, if God be for us, who can be against us?”(sic).

  1. Actor Muyiwa Ademola receives car and cash gifts from U.S based fan.

Muyiwa Ademola posing with his gift and the fanRespected Yoruba actor, Muyiwa Ademola, who has been vacationing in the United States for a while, has recounted how a 14-year-old film, Ori, earned him a car and some undisclosed amount of money from a Houston Texas based fan, Tope Onileowo.

The actor who is one the most creative producers in the Yoruba film industry recounted on Instagram:

“ ORI” a 14 year old film that keep bringing me fortune. He is Apostle Tope Onileowo. He said he watched “ORI” for the first time about 4 months ago, he wept, started asking about me and God said he should give me some amount (in dollars), he started taking the money around with him because I was still in Naija then.

“We met when I got here and he gave me the money. Now he said God directed him to bless me with this car. Indeed God knows our inner thoughts. Please join me in thanking him and praying for his ministry Rock of Prayer Christian Centre in Houston TX. Much love sir.” (sic).”

  1. Veteran Nollywood actor, Chiwetalu Agu, denies knowing actor, Gideon Okeke.

Gideon Okeke and Chiwetalu AguVeteran actor, Chiwetalu Agu, has finally responded to the criticism he got from his colleague in the movie industry, Gideon Okeke, over his alleged extreme vulgarity in movies.

Agu said: “Let him leave the censors board to do their job, or does he work with them? Anybody can say anything or come to whatever conclusion they please. The viewers would judge whether I use vulgar words in movies or not. People who watch movies are the ultimate judges. I do not even know who Gideon Okeke is; I do not think I have ever heard his name.  I have 47 awards to my name; and the second person behind me has not even got up to 10 awards. Two years ago, I took two cows to church to celebrate and thank God for giving me the highest number of awards in Africa. Secondly, I have done 727 productions. It is a rare record in Africa. I am also the current holder of the Best Veteran Actor award which was given to me in U.S.”
