A playful clip that fans have run with. Underneath the joke is one of the least examined relationships in Nigerian music, which is the one between a star and the people on his payroll.
Three artists from different corners of the Lagos street sound on one track. The collaboration is routine now. It was not always, and the reason it changed is money.
Little Kiss, and Overtake with Jeriq. She has been releasing consistently for over a decade, which in Nigerian music is close to unheard of for a woman.
A title and a release date, announced together, with an Ayra Starr feature already out. Committing to a date in public is a bigger deal in Nigerian music than it sounds.
A new album from the man a large part of the current generation quietly treats as their reference point. Longevity in Nigerian music is rare enough that the release itself is the story.
The influencer's last photograph with Davido is circulating while his family argues in public over what happened and what he left. The medical-tourism question is the one worth answering.
A short, unambiguous line from an actor who has been through a very public separation and reconciliation. Nigerian celebrity parenting is usually discussed through scandal rather than through this.
She has ended her Real Housewives of Lagos chapter to return to filmmaking. Reality television pays in visibility, and visibility has a shelf life that a production credit does not.
She is asking for grace, and pointing at the history and the constraints. The comparison is unfair on the numbers and it is also the reason Nigerian film improved as fast as it did.
A permanent TikTok ban, an accusation of hacking, and a denial. Underneath it is the thing every Nigerian creator lives with: an audience you built and do not own.
A face-off at a Lagos pre-event turned into blows on stage while a livestream ran, ahead of their 1 October bout. The chaos is not a problem for the promotion. It is the promotion.
Obi's supporters will place people at polling units and follow materials and results through to collation. It is legal, it is the correct response to 2023, and it is an enormous logistical undertaking.
The First Lady has unveiled a national community food bank for the South East alongside an ICT experience centre. Food banks are good things. A country needing one at national scale is telling you something.
Legislative by-elections eight days from now. They decide very little in themselves and they are the closest thing to a rehearsal anybody gets before 2027.
Atiku's 2023 running mate, speaking in Delta, says he understood the election was lost before it was announced. It lands in the same week Peter Obi claims he actually won it.
The federal government has begun the process of decriminalising attempted suicide. A person in crisis currently risks arrest for surviving, which is the opposite of what the situation needs.
A dual transmission system for 2027, with results sent by two independent routes. It is the most technically specific thing any candidate has said about elections this year.
Legislative engagements halted over xenophobic attacks. It is one of the few responses available to a parliament, and it costs the people it is aimed at almost nothing.
A D'Tigress player's reaction to the hundred thousand dollars. A professional athlete describing a one-off bonus as life-changing tells you what the rest of the year normally pays.
Amas Obasogie has been named Bendel Insurance captain on his second spell at the club, with Kayode Oke as deputy. An international choosing the domestic league, and staying, is rarer than it should be.
