      Nigerian media mogul Mo Abudu is set to deepen her global influence as the EbonyLife brand prepares to launch EbonyLife Place London, a major cultural and creative hub dedicated to amplifying African storytelling and entrepreneurship in the United Kingdom. The new venture, situated in the heart of London, is designed as a multi-purpose space that will serve as a meeting point for filmmakers, content creators, investors, and creatives of African descent. The project reflects EbonyLife’s long-standing mission to project authentic African narratives onto the global stage while creating sustainable opportunities within the creative economy. Speaking on the development, Abudu emphasized that the initiative is more than just a physical space, describing it as “a home for African creatives in the diaspora and a bridge connecting talent from Africa to the rest of the world.” She added that the hub would foster collaboration, innovation, and access to global markets, noting that “the time has come for African stories to take their rightful place at the center of global conversations.” EbonyLife Place London is expected to host film screenings, industry events, training programmes, and business incubation initiatives aimed at nurturing emerging talent while supporting established creators. The facility will also provide networking opportunities for stakeholders across film, television, fashion, and digital media. Industry analysts say the move signals a strategic expansion of EbonyLife’s footprint beyond Nigeria and reinforces the growing global appetite for African content. By establishing a permanent presence in one of the world’s leading creative capitals, the brand is positioning itself as a key player in shaping how African stories are produced, distributed, and consumed internationally. The launch marks another milestone in EbonyLife’s evolution from a Nigerian-based media company into a globally recognized creative powerhouse, underscoring Abudu’s vision of building platforms that not only tell African stories but also empower the people behind them.

    Celestial Church Leaders Condemn Viral Video of James Brown Wearing Female Sutana

    Leaders of the Celestial Church of Christ have condemned a viral video showing media personality James Brown wearing a female sutana during a prayer session at a parish. In the clip, which circulated widely on social media, James Brown was seen receiving prayers while dressed in a garment typically worn by female worshippers.
    The Celestial Reality Check, a verified CCC Facebook page, clarified that James Brown’s visit was not for deliverance but for prayers for success and blessings. The statement explained that the pastor overseeing the parish, Prophet Eze Timothy of CCC Orisun Iye Parish, Ogun State, was aware that James Brown is male and has a preference for cross-dressing, but emphasized that the prayer session was genuine and not staged. The page warned that the viral spread of such footage could normalize “abnormalities” and called on the CCC Task-Force Office and Disciplinary Committee to provide guidance.
    Several church clerics expressed strong disapproval of the video. Segun Glorious described it as “not reflecting CCC doctrinal beliefs,” adding that the clip exploited the church for content and harmed its image while construction of the building was ongoing. Michael Abatanwa posted that James Brown’s actions were “inappropriate” and that the pastor who permitted it should be “held accountable,” stressing that such behavior should not be tolerated in any CCC parish worldwide.
    Social media users also criticized James Brown’s appearance. One commenter described it as “shameful” to see a man wear a female sutana, while others questioned why he was allowed inside the church in such attire, posting comments such as “What did I just watch?” and “Deliverance indeed — why is he wearing women’s garment?”
    The sutana is a traditional garment in Celestial Church worship, with specific designs for male and female members, and deviations from this norm often attract strong reactions from congregants. James Brown has recently drawn attention for his personal and spiritual choices, which continue to generate discussion online.
