I Need a Man on My Bed, Nollywood Actress Cries Out
Nollywood Actress Moyo Lawal has revealed her resolution for the New Year.
In an Instagram post, the curvy film star, who just celebrated her birthday, vowed to get a partner this year.
Moyo wants to share her bed with her dream man, as she is officially ‘entering the streets’ this year.
Although she has never been married, Moyo said she has always lived like a married woman.
Now in her 30+ years, Moyo explained that if the period she has shared a bed with any man is summed up in months, it would be only four.
Moyo further argued that most girls in their 20s have shared their beds with men for an average period of three years.
She said: “Officially entering the streets this year (in @bobrisky222 voice good girl no Dey pay)…
“You see even though ayam not married or has never been married… I have lived my entire life as a married woman (the people who get it get it)…
“If I told you that as a lady who has spent 3 something years on this earth I have only shared a bed as much as the total of 4 months (this is only 4months because I want to cover all bases and leave spare weeks oooh) with another human being would you believe me?
“(Some 21 year olds already have like a total of 3years in their record).
She added: “Anyways that is a NEW YEAR resolution I intend to keep… no more sleeping alone starting from next week… apparently it is not a sin.. sooo-Ps We are OUTSIDE. NOT YET sha but sooon..”
In another post, where she shared bikini photos, the Badagry-born movie star promised her online family that she’ll start covering her body when she turns 40.
She stated: “Don’t worry fam…I will start wearing clothes when I hit the **BIG 40** please don’t go and be zooming nonsense there oooh. But are you feeling the Capricorn Energy or it is not strong enough just yet?
“Wait is it 1 or 2? Because at this point, it’s like I don’t know how to choose pic again oooh, I am not even posting again let me go and eat my rice and chicken.”
Oscar-winning actor Gene Hackman and his wife, Betsy Arakawa, were found dead in their home in New Mexico along with their dog, the Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office told CNN. He was 95.
Their causes of death have not been confirmed, but foul play is not suspected, Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Denise Womack-Avila told CNN on Thursday morning.
Deputies responded to a welfare check request at the home around 1:45 p.m. Wednesday and found Hackman, Arakawa and a dog deceased, Womack-Avila said. An investigation is ongoing, the sheriff’s office said. The gas company is assisting in the investigation, The Associated Press reported.
The welfare check was conducted after a neighbor called authorities, concerned about the couple’s well-being, CNN affiliate KOAT reported.
A search warrant shows that Hackman, his wife and their dog had been dead for some time, and the couple’s bodies were in different rooms when deputies found them during the wellness check, the AP reported.
Hackman was found dead Wednesday in a mudroom, and Arakawa was found dead in a bathroom next to a space heater. There was an open prescription bottle and pills scattered on the countertop near Arakawa, the AP reported.
Medical examiner’s reports with the final cause of death “generally take anywhere from 4-6 weeks to generate,” said Chris Ramirez, spokesperson for the New Mexico medical investigator’s office.
CNN has reached out to Hackman’s representatives.
The actor’s death comes just days before the Academy Awards on Sunday.
Hackman’s performances in such films as “The French Connection,” “Hoosiers,” “Unforgiven,” and “The Firm” elevated character roles to leading-man levels.
Hackman’s best roles were often of conflicted authority figures or surprisingly clever white-collar villains, such as the iconic, evil Lex Luthor in the “Superman” film series in the 1970s and ’80s. Many held a hint – sometimes more than a hint – of menace.
He won an Oscar for his portrayal in 1971’s “The French Connection” of New York cop Popeye Doyle, a detective who gets his man but at a high cost. His surveillance expert in 1974’s “The Conversation” is single-minded to the point of obsession, losing all perspective.
He won his second Oscar for his performance as Little Bill Daggett, the violent sheriff in Clint Eastwood’s 1992 film, “Unforgiven.”

Behold the Prophetess: DJ Cuppy Foretells End of Singlehood in 2025 As Nigerians Offer Advice
Disc Jockey, DJ Cuppy, has prophesied that Valentine’s Day 2025 will be her last one as an unmarried woman.
The 32-year-old, in a post on X, expressed faith in God to help her get a husband.
“Happy #ValentinesDay to me! Manifesting that this is my last one unmarried… Lord, do your thing!” she wrote.
There have been diverse reactions to her post. While some professed love to her, others dished out unsolicited advice and even made recommendations for life partners.
Ogunniyi Taiwo (@tcarz45) wrote: “Baby come let me give you love unconditionally.”
Another X user “SanTa ExqCobar”≠ (@SanTaExqCobar) commented: “If na bad character make you never marry, change am. Happy Val.”
Mr Gibenny (@mrgibenny) suggested: “@uchecrypt is single @cuppymusic. @Crypto__hub is single @cuppymusic. Choose either of them, you won’t regret it.”
Mezie Abia (@MezieAbia) had this advice for Cuppy: “I hope you do realize that the Lord will not find husband for you? Go out there and make use of your woman skills to lure a man who will stick with you. We can’t have a good number of handsome and single men roaming the cities, and you’re always worrying and disturbing Lord to do His thing every damn year.
“Heaven helps those who help themselves, therefore, make a haste while the sun shines (sic).”

DJ Cuppy announced her relationship with British boxer, Ryan Taylor, in December 2022.
After getting to know each other for 25 days, she disclosed that they got engaged.
However, after un-following one another on Instagram in July 2023, the couple gave rise to rumour that they were no longer together.
Cuppy later opened up about the failed relationship while recounting the setbacks in her life at an event.
Born as Florence Ifeoluwa Otedola, DJ Cuppy is the daughter of billionaire businessman, Femi Otedola.
