American rapper and music producer, Kanye West has pleaded with President Donald Trump of the United States to free his ‘idol’ and detained music mogul, Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs.

According to LEADERSHIP, 54-year-old Combs is currently locked up, awaiting trial on sex trafficking and racketeering charges with West now fighting for his release online.

Kanye went on a foul-mouthed posting spree on X where he pleaded with the newly-inaugurated President to free Combs despite the allegations.

The first of dozens of deranged Kanye posts simply read, “FREE PUFF.”
He wrote a similar message on Instagram.

In another, West tagged President Trump and begged, “PLEASE FREE MY BROTHER PUFF.”

Kanye and Trump have had a close relationship in the past with the pair growing close in the run-up to the Republican’s first election win in 2016.

They were pictured together in The White House in 2018 with Trump describing West as a “complicated” but “really nice guy”, last year.

West’s posts continued for hours with him saying in one that Combs has been ‘rotting’ in jail.

The Graduation rapper called him Combs his ‘idol’ and ‘hero’ as he urged his celebrity pals to support the jailed music mogul because he ‘gave his life to us.’

Combs trial for sex trafficking and racketeering is set for May 5.

He caused further controversy on Thursday when he announced plans to sell merchandise from a joint project between the pair.

West showed he is now selling a series of Sean John shirts in red, white, blue, black and grey for just £17 each.

Sean John is a fashion lifestyle company created by Combs back in 1988.

West described it as a business arrangement between the rapper duo which he alleges was agreed to prior to Combs’ spell behind bars.

A social media post from West said, “YEEZY SEAN JOHN COLLAB AVAILABLE @ YEEZY.COM ME AND PUFF SPLITTING THIS 50/50 LIKE WE DISCUSSED BEFORE THEY LOCKED HIM UP.”

Combs’ Instagram account – believed to be run by his family – shared a screenshot of West’s X post alongside the caption, “Thank you to my brother @Ye.”

The post is just one of nine uploaded to Diddy’s Instagram with almost all of them coming in the past six months.

The messages continued late into the night with many of them going on to reference unfounded claims about Combs’ case.

He accused the criminal justice system of trying to “make an example out of Puff” and said he wanted to find out who was “after” the hip-hop icon.

One of his final messages read, “PUFF WE LOVE YOU.”

Combs was first arrested on September 16 in Manhattan by Homeland Security on charges of racketeering and sex trafficking.

He has been holed up in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Center ever since.

Combs has constantly pleaded not guilty to the sex trafficking charges placed against him.

Women Lose Interest In Relationships, Marriage Once They Begin To Cheat – Yuletide Edochie

Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has claimed that infidelity on the part of a woman affects her relationship or marriage more than that of a cheating man.

Featuring in a recent episode of The Honest Bunch Podcast, the actor argued that, unlike men, women lose interest in their relationships once they begin to cheat.

He stated that men should never forgive cheating, stressing that women who cheat have already lost interest.

The actor said any man who forgives cheating is a “weak man.”

He noted that women are faithful and supportive when they are truly in love, but a lot of men choose women who don’t love them, which makes those women cheat on their men with their true loves.

Edochie said, “If you meet a woman who loves you, she will be willing to do anything for you. But the problem is that a lot of men are with women who don’t love them and are wasting their time. So, they can’t get commitment from them because those women are not into them. She is into someone else.

“I don’t want to mention names, but look at the recent controversy over the alleged illicit affair of a young man with a married woman, where the husband was complaining to his wife to save their marriage, and the wife was trying to protect the young man. That is because it is the young man that she truly loves. Do you know how much she might have spent on him?

“I tell you, once a woman begins to cheat, she has checked out emotionally and psychologically. That is why, in some of the leaked alleged voice notes of the cheating woman and her lover, they were mocking her husband. It is normal for many women that once they begin to cheat, they have checked out.

“So, there is nothing like forgiveness when it comes to cheating. If you do, you are a weak man. People don’t understand, women love deeper. Just find the one who loves you, and you will be surprised how sweet life is. You can tell once you meet the one who loves you. Don’t be a fool because of a woman. If you simp for women, you can’t get a real woman. You must set boundaries. Women don’t love weak men,” he added.
