In what she has described as a moment of restoration, popular Nollywood actress Tonto Dikeh has officially reunited her son, King Andre, with his father, Olakunle Churchill.

The actress revealed this in an Instagram post on Wednesday.

Sharing the photos and a video of the reunion with her followers, Dikeh attributed the reconciliation to divine intervention and personal growth.

She wrote, “God has a way of rewriting stories men thought were over. This is grace speaking… and Hearts for Jesus obeying.

“Time failed. Grace prevailed. Time could not cancel what God ordained. Restoration has a voice, and today it spoke.”

The actress also expressed profound gratitude to her spiritual mentor, Pastor Jerry Eze of the New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations.

She credited him with playing a pivotal role in her transformation, stating, “Through you, God transformed who I once was into the woman I am becoming, strong, grounded, and full of His grace. May God continually reward you beyond words.”

This reunion follows an announcement earlier in January in which the actress hinted at a reconciliation with Churchill after their long-running feud.

The closure brings an end to a bitter chapter that began shortly after their 2015 marriage crumbled.

Tinubu Hails Fela’s Lifetime Grammy Achievement Award, Says He Was The ‘Fearless Voice Of The People’

Published

on

President Bola Tinubu has paid tribute to Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti following his posthumous recognition with a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, describing the late musician as a fearless advocate for justice whose influence transcends generations.

In a statement issued on Sunday, President Tinubu hailed Fela as more than a musician, portraying him as a revolutionary figure whose art challenged injustice and reshaped global music culture.

“The world of music has honoured a giant: Fela Anikulapo Kuti. Fela was more than a musician. He was a fearless voice of the people, a philosopher of freedom, and a revolutionary force whose music confronted injustice and reshaped global sound,” the President said.

Tinubu noted that Fela’s courage, creativity and conviction defined an era and continue to inspire the world, adding that the Afrobeat legend has attained immortality through his cultural impact.

“In Yoruba mythology, he has transcended to a higher plane as an Orisa. He is now eternal. Fela lives,” the statement read.

Fela was honoured with the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award on Saturday, January 31, 2026, at the Recording Academy’s Special Merit Awards ceremony held at the Wilshire Ebell Theatre in Los Angeles, on the eve of the 68th Annual Grammy Awards.

With the honour, Fela becomes the first African artist to receive the prestigious Lifetime Achievement Award, which has been presented since 1963 to music icons including Bing Crosby.

The award recognises performers who have made outstanding artistic contributions to the recording field over their lifetimes.

The late musician, who died in 1997 at the age of 58, was celebrated posthumously for his enduring cultural, political and musical legacy. Other recipients at the ceremony included Chaka Khan, Cher, Carlos Santana, Paul Simon and Whitney Houston, who was also honoured posthumously.

The award was accepted on Fela’s behalf by his children, Femi Kuti, Yeni Kuti and Kunle Kuti, in the presence of family members, friends and leading figures from the global music industry.

During the presentation, Fela was described as a “producer, arranger, political radical, outlaw and the father of Afrobeat.”

In his acceptance speech, Femi Kuti said, “Thank you for bringing our father here. It’s so important for us, it’s so important for Africa, it’s so important for world peace and the struggle.”

Yeni Kuti expressed the family’s excitement at the recognition, noting that Fela was never nominated for a Grammy during his lifetime.

“The family is happy about it. And we’re excited that he’s finally being recognised,” she said, adding that while the honour was “better late than never”, there was still “a way to go” in fully acknowledging African artists globally.

Seun Kuti also welcomed the recognition, describing it as a “symbolic moment.”

“Fela has been in the hearts of the people for such a long time. Now the Grammys have acknowledged it, and it’s a double victory. It’s bringing balance to a Fela story. The global human tapestry needs this, not just because it’s my father,” he said.

Footage from the ceremony showed a large screen bearing Fela’s image alongside highlights of his legacy, including his extensive music catalogue, the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical inspired by his life, and global cultural projects celebrating his work.

The presenter declared, “The honour is all ours to present the Recording Academy’s Lifetime Achievement Award to Fela Kuti.”
