I Was Raped By An Ex-Boyfriend And A Spiritual Leader – BamBam

Big Brother Naija star, Bamike popularly known as BamBam, has also revealed that she was raped by her ex-boyfriend and a spiritual leader.

This is coming in the wake of the rape saga between Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA) and singer Timi Dakolo’s wife, Busola.

Read what she wrote below:- My heart has been heavy since this rape situation started. Like I feel physical pains in my heart. I’ve been truly sad and have never wished that justice be truly served to these heartless! insensitive! brutal! unrepentant rapists!!! Cos I have been there, I know what it does to the mind and self esteem of the victim.

It was with an ex boyfriend and a spiritual leader I trusted. Took me meeting another man who saw me for me before I healed completely. Sadly I couldn’t end up with him, but God used him.

Be kind to women, some men have been raped too. Truly be kind to people, you don’t know what true love and true transfer of kindness love and light can do to another person. I’m in tears as I type cos it hurts really bad just remembering and knowing how victims feel.

Cos when you take the body of another without their consent you mentally scar them too! Yo! I trust God and want to trust the law to do the needful!

I tried not to relate this to my personal self but when you hear experiences you lived, you become restless, memories hunt you. I have been refreshing all the updates on the movement/protest for tomorrow.

Something in my head keeps ringing would justice be served this time? Another is hoping and praying that it is truly SERVED rightly! I cannot overemphasize how a win for Busola will be victory for all!

Lord help us all.

Such a sick perverted generation.

For the longest I didn’t realise I haven’t fully healed and mentally/emotionally dealt with what those events did to me. I repressed them. Repressed the memories shared with no one.

It’s important to surround yourself with kind people who listen and understand you. It helps to heal properly. And please don’t repress, prayerfully talk to the right people.

“Don’t Be Deceived by Twitter Polls or Social Media Hype” – Burna Boy Advises Fellow Artists

Grammy-winning artist Burna Boy has offered some candid advice to fellow musicians, urging them not to get carried away by online popularity.

In a message shared via his Instagram Stories, Burna warned artists not to be fooled by Twitter polls or the support of Nigerian social media fans, pointing out that this virtual applause rarely translates into real-world success—especially when it comes to filling stadiums around the globe.

He emphasized that achieving a number one spot on streaming platforms in Nigeria shouldn’t be seen as the pinnacle of success. Instead, he encouraged artists to set bigger goals or consider having alternative business ventures.

His post read:

> “Dear artists,
Don’t let Twitter polls and Naija social media fans deceive you. They won’t fill up any stadium for you in any part of the world.
Your song being Number 1 on any streaming platform in Nigeria is not something to celebrate. Aim higher or do other businesses on the side. I type with love. No sign of aw.”

In a similar vein, singer Spyro also had a message for upcoming acts. He advised that signing to a major label or linking up with a top artist is no guarantee of success. According to Spyro, having a “failure mentality”—where one expects everything to be handed to them—will only lead to amplified failure, no matter how big the platform.

He stressed the importance of diligence and hard work, stating that talent alone isn’t enough. Spyro urged emerging artists to stop chasing fantasies and start putting in real effort to build their careers.
