The singer revealed that he had to undergo surgery in the United States after a swelling in his throat made it impossible for him to perform.

In a recent interview Afrobeats star Tekno revealed that between 2017 and 2019, he struggled with a throat issue that made him unable to sing or perform and eventually forced him to travel to the United States for surgery.

According to the singer, songwriter, and music producer, the moment was a defining and challenging one as it happened when he was at the peak of his career.

“I was refunding so much money.

Speaking on the process of getting the surgery done, the musician revealed that he had to travel the world to find the right doctor and ended up in New York because he couldn’t get the required standard in Nigeria.

Tekno’s ordeal with throat illness is one of the health challenges that has adversely impacted some famous stars at certain points in their careers.

In 2011, British singer Adele was forced to cancel her North American tour to undergo laser microsurgery for a haemorrhaged vocal cord. Grammy-winning star John Mayer also had to undergo surgery in 2011 to remove a granuloma from his vocal cords, which forced him into a lengthy hiatus that resulted in a complete alteration of his singing style.

For Tekno, being able to rise beyond the challenges offered him a different perspective in life as he learnt to be grateful and appreciative of being able to still make music.

In his interview, the hitmaker, who is one of the stars that dominated the 2010s with a collection of mega hit songs, spoke about his latest album ‘Where Did Love Go.’ The 8-track EP packs his signature genre-blending and melodies that shape his songs.

Maduka Okoye was spotted in a Paris fashion show alongside American rapper Cardi B as romance rumours gain steam.

While the attention of the global footballing community was focused on the ongoing FIFA World Cup being co-hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada, one of the sport’s most eligible bachelors was making headlines of his own in faraway Paris.

On June 8, 2026, Nigerian Footballer Maduka Okoye was spotted with American hip hop star Cardi B at the Jean Paul Gaultier Fall/Winter 2026 Haute Couture Show in Paris.

Clips which surfaced online showed the Nigerian goalkeeper helping Cardi B to a seat next to him before handing her a hand fan to keep cool.

The video has since sparked speculations of a potential romance between the two. Fans couldn’t help pointing out how Cardi B appeared taken by the strikingly handsome Okoye, who has been making headlines for his good looks.

The comment section of the urban digital media platform, African Folder, which shared the clip to their Instagram page, was filled with comments praising Okoye for his looks and hailing Cardi B for having eyes for handsome men. Others also commented on how both stars would make a very picture-perfect couple.

At the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, some content creators shared clips ranking some of the best-looking stars at the tournament. Attention would later turn to Maduka Okoye, who didn’t make the tournament with Nigeria but made the list for his striking good looks.

The 26-year-old who plays for Italian club Udinese was born in August 1999 to a Nigerian father of Igbo descent and a German-French mother. While his good looks have always been a talking point among football fans, the ongoing FIFA World Cup brought him wider attention with viral videos of women gushing over him.

At the recent BET Awards, Nigerian international music star Tems was asked whether she would consider going on a date with Okoye, to which she replied that “she wished she knew who he was” as she doesn’t follow football.

The potential of a romance between the Nigerian football star and American rapper Cardi B is likely to bring him even more fame outside football. Although his relationship status is private, there are rumours that he has broken up with his British girlfriend. The 33-year-old Cardi B, who is a mother of four, is single after parting ways with her ex-boyfriend and father of her fourth child, NFL star Stefflon Diggs,
