BBNaija Star Uriel Oputa who was recently evicted from the house caused a stir online today with her podcast which left fans feeling pity for her.

According to Uriel, she has been heartbroken because Neo never mentioned that he misses her despite all the “good times” they shared while she was in the house.

Stirring up emotions, Uriel shared that she couldn’t believe that Neo hadn’t said for once that he missed her nor the raunchy pink dress she wore when they kissed. Hence, she said that Neo played her.

Recall that Uriel Oputa was evicted from the Big Brother Naija All Stars house on Sunday, August 13, 2023. She was the second housemate to be evicted from the Big Brother Naija All Stars.

The week she was evicted, Uriel and Seyi Awolowo were the  two housemates with the least number of votes from viewers. For that reason, the jury, comprising Teddy A, Laycon, and Diane, voted to evict Uriel.

While in the house, Uriel was a controversial figure. She was known for her outspoken personality and her willingness to stir up drama. She also had a number of disagreements with other housemates, including Whitemoney and Princess. But she shared a special bond with Neo

Despite her controversial nature, Uriel was also a popular housemate. She was known for her sense of humor and her fierce loyalty to her friends.,

Music star, Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, also known as Kizz Daniel has allegedly been arrested by the Tanzanian Police.

Kizz Daniel was arrested for not showing up at his scheduled concert.

He was scheduled to perform at the Warehouse, Old Nextdoor Arena in Tanzania on Sunday but did not show up to the venue.

Disgruntled fans had taken to social media, expressing displeasure over the Singer’s failure to show up on Sunday.

Reports said the ‘Buga’ crooner refused to mount the stage because he allegedly forgot his travelling bag in Uganda and didn’t want to wear borrowed clothes.

However, the angry fans who reportedly paid $5000 for tables were seen hurling bottles at each other and destroying properties at the event centre.

A viral video of the arrest showed the singer wearing a hooded jacket and being led into a police vehicle.

This is the second time the singer has failed to perform at a fully booked concert while fans waited.

He had last month kept fans waiting for hours at his DMV concert in New York but later blamed his no-show on immigration challenges.
