Nigerian music executive, Don Jazzy, has said he can’t be sexually committed to only one woman.

He explained that he doesn’t have the discipline to be faithful to a partner.

Speaking in a episode of the Nancy Iaime Show, the Mavin boss said ladies might avoid him due to his honesty, but he can’t lie about being sexually committed to a partner.

He said, “I don’t believe that I am strong enough to be with [only] one person. I think. People will run away from me being truthful. I will not be dating you and telling you that you’re the only person.

“Some people have the strength to be sexually committed once they are attracted to somebody. But for me, the fact that you’re a beautiful lady doesn’t stop me from admiring another woman. She is also beautiful.”

Women At Risk International Foundation, (WARIF) has continued to advocate against Gender Based Violence, especially Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) as well as other harmful practices in Akwa Ibom State.

It urged victims to speak up and report to relevant authorities in their local communities as there are available laws to give them succor and punish offenders.

Recall that WARIF in partnership with UN Women through the UN-Leap Project had on May 8 trained traditional rulers and faith leaders in Uyo on dangers of GBV, after which the Traditional Rulers Council in turn had an open declaration for the abolition of all forms of violation against anyone, especially women and children.

To solidify the declaration, the Program Lead of WARIF, Adeola Potts-Johnson, who spoke with newsmen at the end of a sensitization walk in Uyo during the weekend, said phone numbers have been made available for not only victims of GBV but everyone to call in and report related incidents for prompt action .

Johnson therefore encouraged traditional and faith leaders to spearhead the awareness campaigns and advocacy efforts in order to dismantle harmful gender norms and practices in their local communities and churches.

She said, “This initiative is designed to assess the commitments made by traditional and faith leaders in Nigeria to end violence against women and girls (VAWG) and eliminate harmful cultural practices.

“It’s not just only about the declaration we had in May, but to see it documented and implemented. We carried out a dialogue with community leaders, youth leaders across the four clans in Uyo, giving out our fliers to talk about dangers of gender based violence, what it is and numbers they can call in response to these vices if you see them. We want to ensure that people at the grassroots also get that information.”

The village head of Ikot Ntuen Oku, Eteidung Nsikan Ikpe, who represented the Paramount ruler of Uyo, Edidem Sylvanus Okon, said the people have been sensitized on the implications of indulging in any form of gender based violence including rape, battery and defilement. He added that sanity had returned to the communities.

“There is a lot of impact after the declaration. Everybody is now cautious and we always encourage people to report to village heads, family heads, youth leaders or any authority issues of abuse,” he said.

The Youth Leader, Christian Association of Nigeria, CAN, Akwa Ibom State chapter, Pastor Mfon Umoh admitted the high level of GBV in the society and urged WARIF to sensitize the people on the dangers of GBV even as he noted that churches are working hard in preaching against GBV during their meetings and conventions.

Speaking, Nkechi Udoh, the desk officer for the UN Women LEAP Project in the Akwa Ibom State Ministry of Women Affairs and Social Welfare, said GBV remains a capital offense and should not be condoned.

She disclosed that people have been coming out to speak and report cases of GBV following the level of awareness so far, adding that more sensitization needs to be done to encourage others to come out.

“People are coming to make reports and even just today somebody came and reported. Victims were actually staying back because of stigma, because of labeling, and because most of the perpetrators make them do some nasty things, take some substance just to instill fear. There’s that fear factor in them.

“So my advice, my suggestion is that they should be brave enough, not just for themselves, to fight for the others. Because of they do not speak out, that violence will continue. That person may continue violating him or her and will continue doing it to others.”

As the race to the June 20, 2026 governorship poll gathers traction, the Ekiti State Deputy Governor, Chief (Mrs) Monisade Afuye has warned political appointees against disloyalty and treacherous acts.

Mrs Afuye said it would be a disservice for those holding political positions to be playing spoilers’ roles, saying there are gains in being steadfastly loyal to Governor Biodun Oyebanji, who offered them platforms to render services to the state.

The deputy governor gave the warning in Ado Ekiti on Sunday, during the burial thanksgiving service for her late mother, Olori Esther Iyalaje Adegboye, held at the Government House Chapel, Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State Capital.

Olori Adegboye, who died on February 18, 2025 at the age of 97, was laid to rest on June 27, 2025 at her Ikere Ekiti country home.

At the event, attended by the First Lady, Dr. Olayemi Oyebanji, top government functionaries and high profile politicians, prayers were offered for the success of Governor Oyebanji’s administration and for sustainable peace of in Ekiti State and the nation in general.

Addressing the congregation, Mrs Afuye, appreciated Governor Oyebanji, the First Lady, political class, traditional rulers and all Ekiti indigenes, for their support.

Speaking about the 2026 governorship poll and the need for cohesiveness in government, the deputy governor appealed to those holding political positions to be wary of their actions and be loyal to their principals in the interest of their dignity and honour.

“Let us be committed to the government in whatever position we are given. You might be holding a small position, be contented with it and be loyal to that cause.

“We thank God that Ekiti is peaceful under Governor Oyebanji and moving forward in all aspects. This has been recognised near and far, not only in South-West alone but across Nigeria, that our governor is performing and delivering.

“There is nothing the governor can do that can please the adversaries. That is why you are seeing those negative comments coming, you can’t but expect them. To those of us who are inside, let us be loyal and do what is right at all times.

“I know that by this time of next year, we will be jubilating and rejoicing in the life of Ekiti State and our governor by the grace of God,” she said.

In his sermon, the Chairman of the Christian Association of Nigerian, CAN, Ekiti chapter, Dr. Emmanuel Aribasoye, who quoted from the Book of Psalms, chapter 17 verses 1-12, urged the citizens to live righteous and honest lives to exalt and lift the nation beyond the present stage.

The Government House Chaplain, Pastor Segun Awolumate, led the prayers for the deceased’s family, Governor Biodun Oyebanji, all Ekiti citizens, the state government and the nation at large.
