Popular actor and filmmaker, Fredrick Leonard, has displayed couple goals for the New Year with a video shared on his Instagram page to entertain and enlighten his fans, particularly the men.

Fondly called Freddie, the movie star was seen with a bone-straight wig on his hair while he pressed his phone.

Apparently, his wife, Peggy Ovire-Leonard did not have her mannequin with her as they were on a getaway and she could not carry it along.

So, her hubby offered himself to be used as one as the video captured her using a hand drier to dry the wig on Freddie’s before she began straightening it.

As Peggy straightened the hair with the hot tool, when it got close to the actor’s face, he screamed, ‘Babe, my face! My face!! Heeehhhhnn!! Babeski babeski!!”

Laughing, the wife cut in saying, ‘It’ll not touch your face.”

Then, ‘Film Lord’ continued, “Yes na! This is what marriage is, use me, I use you. So, my wife today is using me as her mannequin. Cos we are on our way, on a short getaway.

“So, we’re not home, we’re somewhere really special and nice. And she didn’t come with her mannequin. She couldn’t have even come with it. So, I’m standing in as the mannequin. Na so e be o!”

Enlightening unmarried men about marriage, Freddie stated stuff like what he was doing and other sacrifices were needed to make their wives happy and by extension have a beautiful-cum-successful marriage.

“So, if you are thinking of getting married. It’s not a joke. You have a present yourself, you know….a sacrifice. This is part of it, to make the wife happy…you know. The earlier I do this, the better”, he added.

The Nollywood stars tied the knot traditionally on Saturday, November 19, 2022 in Warri, Delta State.

The event themed #meettheleonards was witnessed by colleagues, friends, family, and well-wishers.

During the ceremony, Fredrick confessed although they had been together for seven years, in the last 10 years, Peggy was the only person he realised he could not live without.

Grammy award-winning singer, Burna Boy, has apologised to his fans for the delay at his Lagos concert on Sunday.

‘Odogwu’ blamed the delay on the organisational structure and infrastructure which he said were not available to meet complexities of his audio and production needs.

He urged stakeholders to build a world class infrastructure for the Nigerian entertainment business.

The statement, shared by the Afro-fusion singer via his insta story, reads: “Lagos, I love you but I can’t do this again. 

“The organisational structure and infrastructure is not there for the complexities of my audio and production needs.

“Let’s be clear. I wasn’t late, my band wasn’t late. We pride ourselves on being highly professional especially with our stage craft. 

“There were three options available to me; wait for audio to be fixed and delay the show, come out at rpm as planned with no sound or call breach of contract and pull the plug.

“I know I can’t go all over the world and neglect my own people so I’m taking matters into my own hands! 

“I’m gathering the troops to work on building world class infrastructure in the Nigerian entertainment business.

“Investors and stakeholders interested pls hit me up, we need to make some changes.

“I apologise to my fans for how hectic it was, thank you for staying and weathering the storm with me.

“I commend my band fromtheoutsiders for making lemonade with the worst lemons we’ve ever seen!

“Wonder X, KC Kennedy: Olisa Adibua and Creative Economy Catalyst (CEC) did an abysmal job of executing anything and my fans should never have had to go through that.

“I’ll see you all again, on spaceship time! No one else’s. Love, Damini.”

“Just to show you say I still love una, I no go even lie for you. 

“If no be Seyi Vibez sef I for don dey go house but I dey here with una after una don talk say I kill person for Cubana.

“After una don talk say my mama dance for Fela. After una….no wahala. 

“I still love you na why I dey here, so if you like no love me, na God go punish you,” he said.
