Stephanie Coker opens up on her battle with PCOS | Fab.ng

Stephanie Coker-Aderinokun, a media personality and actress, bravely discussed her challenges with PCOS and IVF in a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo. She revealed the emotional turmoil she faced after her second IVF attempt failed, confessing that she nearly resorted to taking her own life.

Stephanie disclosed that she invested a significant amount of money, over $40,000. She went as far as travelling to Los Angeles for an IVF procedure, only to have it end unsuccessfully last year.

After an unsuccessful round of IVF, she felt deeply discouraged and confided in a friend. She expressed a strange sense of rejection, feeling like even the baby didn’t want her. This was especially difficult because IVF was her only chance at having a child due to her PCOS.

The PCOS caused such severe bleeding that she was hospitalised, and at her worst point, she was confined to a wheelchair and even had to sleep outside in the garden to cope with the overwhelming internal heat. It had been a very physically and emotionally challenging time.

Furthermore, Stephanie Coker shared how the challenges escalated when her husband faced public scrutiny and lost his election. This intensified the backlash against them, adding another layer of difficulty to their already challenging situation.

President Tinubu Is Officially My GOAT – Brymo On National Anthem Change

President Tinubu Is Officially My GOAT—Brymo | Fab.ng

After the change in the national anthem, singer Brymo declared President Tinubu the Greatest of All Time (G.O.A.T.) among all previous presidents.

The controversial singer declared this in an Instagram Story post on May 30, 2024.

He posted the lyrics of the old national anthem, emphasising the first stanza and comparing Africa and Nigeria to “polygamy” and a “family unit.”

He said,

“President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is officially my G.O.A.T of all the Nigerian presidents! Read the lyrics of the new national anthem. The first stanza is all you need; it asserts Nigeria for the motherland and now Africa can be the fatherland and be a symbol of polygamy and we can all focus on one family unit. My favourite part is ‘In brotherhood, we stand.’ We are all now members of the greatest cult on earth. Nigeria is now the only brotherhood that every boy and ambitious girl must belong to in this country. I am very happy.”

The Senate and the House of Representatives recently approved legislation to change the national anthem from “Arise, O Compatriots” to “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.” Shortly after, on May 29, 2024, President Tinubu signed the bill into law, officially changing the national anthem.

Senate President Godswill Akpabio announced this on Wednesday, May 29, during a joint session of the National Assembly. This also marked the 25th anniversary of Nigeria’s 4th Republic.

The change led to a range of reactions from Nigerians on social media, including confusion, anger, frustration, and, for some, like Brymo, happiness. Nigerian celebrities also expressed their feelings about the swift reversion to the previous national anthem.

Lillian Jean Williams wrote, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.” She is a British expatriate who lived in Nigeria during its independence era, while Frances Berda composed the music. Pa Benedict Odiase wrote “Arise, O Compatriots,” and it was adopted in 1978.

Nigerian celebrities dissatisfied with new national anthem | Fab.ng

Nigerians were surprised by a swift government decision to bring back the old national anthem, “Nigeria, We Hail Thee.” This change replaced the current anthem, “Arise, O Compatriots,” which had been in place since 1978.

The switch happened in just a few days: the House of Representatives passed a bill on May 23rd, the Senate followed suit a few days later, and President Tinubu signed it into law on May 29th, 2024.

This move sparked criticism from many Nigerian celebrities on social media. They felt the government’s priorities were misplaced.

Instead of focusing on changing the national anthem, celebrities argued that the government should tackle more pressing issues like insecurity, unemployment, and the struggling economy.

See some of their reactions below:
