Rapper Nicki Minaj has issued an apology to Cardi B’s daughter, Kulture, after previously referring to her with offensive names.
The apology came shortly after a heated online exchange between Minaj and Cardi B.
In her statement, Nicki admitted that the child did not deserve to be insulted, clarifying that Kulture’s features are normal for her age and nothing to be ashamed of.
She wrote:
“Dear Kulture, truth is: I did all of this for a bigger purpose and one day you’ll understand. You’re a cute child & lots of kids have cute little funny looking gums before they grow into all of their features. One day you’ll see this, so I have to say: I apologize. As a child of God & QUEEN of my community who look to me for integrity. You’re an innocent child & don’t deserve any of this.”
While apologizing to Kulture, Nicki still took a swipe at Cardi B, warning that she would be held accountable for making negative remarks about her son.
In other news… A Nigerian man has stirred intense conversations on social media after calling out landlords in Asaba for setting rent prices far beyond the reach of average income earners, while simultaneously refusing to lease apartments to alleged internet fraudsters.
In a trending video, he questioned how civil servants who earn between ₦200,000 and ₦300,000 monthly could realistically afford two-bedroom apartments costing between ₦2.5 million and ₦3 million annually.
He described this as unreasonable, arguing that such houses were clearly designed for the wealthy and suspected “Yahoo boys.” According to him, it was hypocritical for landlords to reject young men believed to be fraudsters yet peg rent at prices only they or the rich could afford.
The man further stressed that the housing problem in Nigerian cities would continue to worsen unless landlords became more transparent and fair with rent pricing. He also highlighted the wide gap between these exorbitant rents and Nigeria’s minimum wage, pointing out that most citizens live paycheck to paycheck with no ability to raise millions for yearly rent.
“Let’s be sincere landlords know exactly who they’re building for,” he said, adding that both middle-class and low-income workers have already been priced out of decent accommodation.
He concluded by urging landlords to stop pretending that their properties are for everyone and admit that they are targeted at wealthy tenants only, rather than hiding behind morality while rejecting those who can actually afford the rent.
