Popular Nigerian Hip-hop artiste infected with HIV+ the many women he has slept with

When the news came to our hearing last week, we didn’t want to go into it, the reason is because the issue of HIV is a sensitive thing to go into without tenable facts. But, the source told us that there is no gossip here, the well-dressed artist who lives life without any worry, and loves the good things of life who has once lived and worked in the UK and US, is carrying the deadly virus around.

Well, checking through his Instagram page, we compared some old pictures to the new ones, we have discovered that, something is missing somewhere. Aside that, the big boy, an entrepreneur, entertainer who is well-endowed and who once left London for home when his friend and partner asked him to return to face Nigeria music scene first, has not been as active as he used to be on social media due to his present condition, so we learnt.

How could he have done this to himself? Rumour has it that he loves to taste all shades and shapes of girls, ladies and women. White, Chinese, Indian, no matter the colour of skin as long as it is a female; it’s all well and good. Not only that, he’s a ‘hardcore’ carpenter when it comes to handling a woman, little wonder a  top female ex DG who once headed a federal agency cannot let him out of her sight. Also a top actress, a certain ex beauty queen and others will not all forget in a hurry how good and pleasurable their moments with him were.

For this popular artiste, it’s a secret he has to closely guard from the public or probably take to the grave so as not to tarnish the good image he portrays out there. This handsome dude, since his fisticuffs with his friend, has been seriously struggling to get his groove back. His recent work, which many believe is a little try, has not made any impact in the industry unlike before when two heads were better than one. Those who have come to term with his works then said he needs a formidable partner and songwriter to get him back on track.

If it’s true that our Oga Titus is carrying this virus in his body, so many girls, ladies and women, most especially the ones mentioned above, need to go for compulsory HIV test now to determine their status. Could this be true?

Nigeria’s Inflation Drops to 15.10% as NBS Reports Deflationary Trend

Nigeria’s Inflation Drops to 15.10% as NBS Reports Deflationary Trend

Nigeria’s headline inflation rate declined to 15.10 per cent in January 2026, marking a significant drop from 27.61 per cent recorded in January 2025, according to the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report released by the National Bureau of Statistics.

The report also showed that month-on-month inflation recorded a deflationary trend of –2.88 per cent, representing a 3.42 percentage-point decrease compared to December 2025. Analysts say the development signals easing price pressures across key sectors of the economy.

Food inflation stood at 8.89 per cent year-on-year, down from 29.63 per cent in January 2025. On a month-on-month basis, food prices declined by 6.02 per cent, reflecting lower costs in several staple commodities.

The data suggests a sustained downward trajectory in inflation over the past 12 months, pointing to improving macroeconomic stability.

The administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has consistently attributed recent economic adjustments to ongoing fiscal and monetary reforms aimed at stabilising prices, boosting agricultural output, and strengthening domestic supply chains.

Economic analysts note that while the latest figures indicate progress, sustaining the downward trend will depend on continued policy discipline, exchange rate stability, and improvements in food production and distribution.

The January report provides one of the clearest indications yet that inflationary pressures, which surged in early 2025, may be moderating.

GTBank Launches Quick Airtime Loan at 2.95%

 

Guaranty Trust Bank Ltd (GTBank), the flagship banking franchise of GTCO Plc, Africa’s leading financial services group, today announced the launch of Quick Airtime Loan, an innovative digital solution that gives customers instant access to airtime when they run out of call credit and have limited funds in their bank accounts, ensuring customers can stay connected when it matters most.

 

In today’s always-on world, running out of airtime is more than a minor inconvenience. It can mean missed opportunities, disrupted plans, and lost connections, often at the very moment when funds are tight, and options are limited. Quick Airtime Loan was created to solve this problem, offering customers instant access to airtime on credit, directly from their bank. With Quick Airtime Loan, eligible GTBank customers can access from ₦100 and up to ₦10,000 by dialing *737*90#. Available across all major mobile networks in Nigeria, the service will soon expand to include data loans, further strengthening its proposition as a reliable on-demand platform.

For years, the airtime credit market has been dominated by Telcos, where charges for this service are at 15%. GTBank is now changing the narrative by offering a customer-centric, bank-led digital alternative priced at 2.95%. Built on transparency, convenience and affordability, Quick Airtime Loan has the potential to broaden access to airtime, deliver meaningful cost savings for millions of Nigerians, and redefine how financial services show up in everyday life, not just in banking moments.

Commenting on the product launch, Miriam Olusanya, Managing Director of Guaranty Trust Bank Ltd, said: “Quick Airtime Loan reflects GTBank’s continued focus on delivering digital solutions that are relevant, accessible, and built around real customer needs. The solution underscores the power of a connected financial ecosystem, combining GTBank’s digital reach and lending expertise with the capabilities of HabariPay to deliver a smooth, end-to-end experience. By leveraging unique strengths across the Group, we are able to accelerate innovation, strengthen execution, and deliver a more integrated customer experience across all our service channels.”

Importantly, Quick Airtime Loan highlights GTCO’s evolution as a fully diversified financial services group. Leveraging HabariPay’s Squad, the solution reinforces the Group’s ecosystem proposition by bringing together banking, payment technology, and digital channels to deliver intuitive, one-stop experiences for customers.

With this new product launch, Guaranty Trust Bank is extending its legacy of pioneering digital-first solutions that have redefined customer access to financial services across the industry, building on the proven strength of its widely adopted QuickCredit offering and the convenience of the Bank’s iconic *737# USSD Banking platform.
