Gospel singer and the 3rd runner up at the maiden edition of the West African Idol, Eric Arubayi, is dead.

The young artiste, believed to be in his early 30s, reportedly died on Saturday at the Delta State University Teaching Hospital.
Eric is said to have fallen sick earlier in the week and taken some expired malaria drugs that led to the failure of some vital body organs. 
Efforts to get an official statement from his family proved abortive.
He is survived by his wife of three years, Chinonso, and a child.

He's pictured above with his wife, Chinonso Arubayi and son. Eric Arubayi had just celebrated his 3rd wedding anniversary last two months, Dec. 28th 2016. He was just in his mid-30s. May his soul rest in peace, amen.

Singer, Joel Amadi talks about his babies from 5 different women

It is a known fact that many entertainers delay getting married because they believe their fans of the opposite sex would reduce once they do.

Kennis Music artiste, Joel Amadi, clearly holds that thought as well. In a chat with Sunday Scoop, he said, “I am not getting married anytime soon, but I know I will definitely do that at the right time and with the right person. It is true that marriage reduces an artiste’s female fans, and I have even had such an experience in the past. For instance, I used to enjoy watching a programme called Clinic Matters, but I stopped watching it after Lilian Esoro, who is one of the actresses in it, got married to Ubi Franklin. If that could happen to me, then it must have happened to so many people as well.”

However, the Hold On singer refuted claims that he has babies from five different women. He said, “I don’t have any children ; I’m not a baby father and I have never impregnated any woman.”

Speaking in retrospect about his striking resemblance to 2face, he said, “My resemblance with 2face has been a blessing, though it was more of a burden before. A lot of people had some negative impressions that I was trying to sound like 2face, and some even said Kennis Music signed me to replace 2face. But I was the one who walked up to Kennis Music and asked them for a record label, and they never even mentioned 2face. However, it has been a blessing because 2face is a good name. If 2face was a bad artiste, it would have affected me more negatively. For every step forward 2face takes, I also move further. Besides, I am talented in my own right. Our voices may be similar, but the patterns are different. I don’t think 2face has ever sang songs like Oya Now, Gbemisoke, Ileke, among others.”

Admitting that the recession has affected him, he said, “This recession has reduced the number of shows we attend; even the fees that I get paid has depreciated. Meanwhile, things generally are more expensive to buy because of the inflation; so it’s quite tough but we thank God that we’re still alive.”

Joel also hinted that he is working on his second album at the moment, and will feature artistes like Olamide, Timaya, Seyi Shay and 2face, among others.

How I handled sexual advances — Belinda Effah speaks

On sexual harassment, she said, 'I am not going to deny the fact that someone at some point made passes at me. This was when I was starting out in the industry but right now, I’ve not had that experience. When people call me for jobs, they are very professional about it. I thank God that I didn’t fall into that trap and it was even a ‘nobody’ who made the pass at that time. Some ladies toed that line but where are they today? When you sell your birthright, you can’t retrieve it again.'

On how she coped as a young lady who was catered for by a single parent, she said, ''I usually do not talk about my private life. What people know me for are my movies, so I am not keen on putting my private life out there. People do not care about you really; they don’t know how I feed or live. All those information are private and I don’t want it in the public space. I’d appreciate if people just keep watching my movies and focus solely on that.''
