Truly Genesis! Happy Birthday Papa – Alhaji Arems

Today, we celebrate a man whose life stands as a beacon of humility, unwavering love, and genuine service to others. His birthday is not only a personal milestone but a reminder of the impact of a life lived with authenticity and compassion. As it is written, “Let all that you do be done in love” (1 Corinthians 16:14).

I first encountered the prophet back in 2014 through Afrobeats artist David Aluge, popularly known as Hot & Cool. At the time, we were preparing to release one of his singles, and David introduced me to the prophet, describing him as his spiritual father. That initial meeting was more than a ceremonial gesture—it marked the beginning of a deep and enduring influence on my life. Over the years, even after a period of lost contact, our reunion reaffirmed what I had come to appreciate: his steadfast nature and the consistent humility he exhibits in every interaction.

The prophet’s life is a testament to living truthfully. He never shies away from inconveniencing himself to bring joy and comfort to others. He lives by the principle of making genuine connections and does not believe in pretense. His ministry transcends religious labels, embracing all with open arms. His commitment to inclusivity is evident, as he preaches love to everyone—supporting even Muslims with the same sincerity he offers his congregation. This is reminiscent of the commandment, “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you” (John 15:12).

Through his actions and words, he has reinforced the belief that our shared humanity is far greater than any differences that might separate us. His support for AREMS ENTERTAINMENT & ARIYA247 TV and his belief in our brand serve as a constant reminder of how genuine leadership and faith can inspire success and unity in all aspects of life. As we celebrate him today, we join in his vision of a world where love and truth prevail—a world truly founded on the principles of genesis and renewal.

On this special day, I wish him sound health, greater wisdom, deeper knowledge, and continued understanding. We thank him for his enduring influence and for being a guiding light in our lives. Truly, his life is an embodiment of the timeless truth: “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God” (1 John 4:7).

Happy Birthday, Papa. Your legacy of love and authenticity continues to inspire us all.

Comedian AY Makun Called Out for Allegedly Flaunting Fake Hermes Bag

Popular Nigerian comedian and actor, AY Makun, has come under scrutiny after a luxury detective page on Instagram, T20Luxury, accused him of flaunting a counterfeit Hermes bag.

The controversy began when AY Makun shared a photo of himself posing with what appeared to be a designer Hermes bag. However, T20Luxury, a page known for analyzing and verifying luxury fashion items, took to Instagram to dispute the authenticity of the bag.

The page not only compared AY’s bag to an original Hermes design but also urged the comedian to avoid patronizing counterfeit fashion products.

“As a key stakeholder in the entertainment industry and a beneficiary of genuine creativity, it is more honorary to refrain from supporting the counterfeit fashion industry. Upholding authenticity is important to preserving our reputation as leaders within the Black community,” T20Luxury wrote while sharing a side-by-side comparison of AY’s bag and the authentic version.

The accusation has sparked mixed reactions online, with some fans defending the comedian, while others criticized him for allegedly promoting counterfeit luxury goods.

As of now, AY Makun has not publicly responded to the allegations.
