Fresh tension has flared between Nigerian dancer Korra Obidi and her ex-husband, Justin Dean, as she publicly accused him of cutting their daughter’s hair without informing her.
The couple, who divorced in March 2022 following accusations of infidelity and marital strife, have continued to face co-parenting challenges.
In a recent video shared on TikTok, Korra is seen braiding her daughter’s hair while the child plays with a tablet. Visibly dismayed, the dancer pointed out that a large portion of the girl’s hair had been cut off.
“More than half of the hair chopped off. I choose positivity. I’m not going to burst the windows out of anybody’s car”, Korra remarked, choosing to remain calm despite her frustration.

In other news, Nigerian singer and songwriter Seyi Shay has sparked a conversation about the origins of church music, calling on Christians to reflect on the hymns they sing during worship.
In a candid post shared via her Instagram story, Seyi Shay explained why she stopped attending her previous church. According to the singer, a leader at the church discouraged the use of modern gospel songs, insisting that only hymns and scripture-based songs be sung during services.
“I stopped going to that church. PERIODT,” she stated.
She went on to question how worshippers could feel uplifted singing hymns that, in her view, were originally composed by slave owners and imposed on enslaved Africans during periods of severe oppression.
“Makes no sense,” she wrote. “Do your research! Ignorance is NOT Godly!”
While Seyi Shay clarified that not all hymns have negative origins, she urged churches to be more intentional and informed about the content they use in worship. She even encouraged believers to create their own worship songs directly inspired by scripture.
Her message has since sparked mixed reactions online, with many praising her for raising awareness, while others defended the traditional role of hymns in church.
