Sahara Weekly Reports That President Bola Tinubu expresses his deep condolences to his Special Assistant on Social Media, Olusegun Dada, on the passing of his mother, Mrs. Ifejola Esther Dada, into glory.
The President joins the friends and well-wishers of the Dada family in mourning the irreparable loss of their beloved wife and mother, who was an outstanding educator and devoted years of her professional life to providing quality and affordable education for the least privileged members of society.
President Tinubu notes that as the President of the Association for Formidable Educational Development in Nigeria, Mrs. Dada’s remarkable contributions to the provision of affordable access to quality education at the grassroots will be remembered for generations to come.
“Her memory remains a blessing to the many disadvantaged children who benefited directly from her selfless service as an educator,” the President said.
President Tinubu urges Olusegun, his siblings and his extended family, to find solace in the very worthy and timeless legacies of hard work, patience, forbearance, charity, and selflessness that have characterized the life of Mama Ifejola Esther Dada.
The President also encourages them to work hard to honour Mama’s deep impact on the education sector by doing good to others and impacting lives by taking care of fellow Nigerians, even as he prays for the peaceful repose of the soul of the departed and for divine comfort for the family she lovingly left behind.

Mohbad: More Celebrities Speak Up As Nigerians Sign Petitions To Ban Marlian Music Label
Sahara Weekly Reports That Following the death of the Nigerian music artiste Mohbad (nee Ifeoluwa Oladimeji Aloba) Nigerians have begun to sign a petition calling for the ban of the Naira Marley-owned record label, Marlian Music.
The petition launched on change.org by Mohbad’s fans had garnered over 200,000 signatures.
It will be recalled that before his death, singer, Mohbad had alleged threats to his life, as well as malicious damage of property and oppression by Marlian Music record label owner, Naira Marley and his friend Sam Larry, post his controversial split from the label about a year ago.
Meanwhile, celebrities have begun to speak out since the death of the artiste, who left behind a wife and a 24-month months old child.
He said that some music executives have vowed that artistes who left their record label will never gain the spotlight, while some force their signees into illicit lifestyles.
“In life, we win some and lose some. Record label owners (in fact, senior colleagues in the entertainment business) must know when to let go. “I am leaving” shouldn’t be a death sentence. Don’t make yourself the alpha and omega over anybody whose talent you were not the giver.
“Some of you have sworn that talents that left you will never rise. You block them from radio, TV and shows. You call the shots because you are mini gods. Nobody fit beg you. Ok o.
“In your gatherings, anyone who can’t smoke or drink is not man enough. Drugs everywhere. The young ones must blend in. people who have no business in entertainment are in control of young destinies because of cultism.
“Don’t kill another man to live because everybody will go one way or another. Your wealth isn’t a tool to buy another man’s life,” wrote the comedian on his X page.
Meantime, On Air Personality, Chinedu Ani Emmaneul, aka Nedu has described the Nigerian music industry a dark one.
The artiste and presenter who has been in the music industry for the past 13 years said despite the real hunger for fame and wealth by artistes in the industry, it barely lasts more than two years. few, he said has the grace to enjoy decades of fame, to become legends.
It’s only when you are popular that people will come around you. But you see the one wey nobody go ever forget you na Rest In Peace (RIP), Including those who forgot to post your pictures on your birthday will never forget to post it for RIP.
“Now see our wonderful brother Mohbad. Did you know that the EP he dropped, and nobody downloaded, but after his death, the song has become top three on Naija Apple Play. May God rest his soul,” he concluded
