Nigerian rapper Olamide Adedeji, popularly known as Olamide, has opened up about his strategy in the Nigerian music industry stressing that he is more concerned about knowing his audience and not desperate for international recognition.. 

He said: “You have to identify your audience. Once you identify your audience, the rest of the world will catch up eventually. So, I have to stay true to myself and no mater where it is, what it is, I mean, in this world, I have to stay true to myself.

“I’m comfortable in my skin. I’m a Naija guy, Yoruba boy, I have H-Factor and all that, and I’m proud about it. You just have to stay true to yourself."

Rapper Odumodublvck Says Nigerian Politics Is Shambolic

Renowned Nigerian rapper and singer Tochukwu Ojogwu, known as Odumodublvck, has expressed his view on Nigerian politics by saying it is “shambolic”.

He said: “Politics in Nigeria is a shambolic scene like everywhere in the world. When you gives man power, it never really goes as planned regardless of whether the person is good or bad. If the person is bad, bad people are going to make him worse. And if the person is good, you will have bad people trying to contaminate the good."

“Nigerians have been so brainwashed that when there is a problem, the first thing they think about is the president. You have your local chairman, councillor, senator, who are directly representing you, but you are holding only the president accountable for all the challenges our society is facing. Other public officials should also be held accountable,” he added conclusively.

‘Without You My Story’s Incomplete’ – Musician 2Baba Pens Lengthy Emotional Letter On 25 Years In Music

Legendary Nigerian musician, Innocent Idibia, widely known as 2Baba, has written a deeply emotional open letter to commemorate his 25th anniversary in the music industry, expressing profound appreciation to everyone who has played a part in his remarkable journey.

In the touching piece titled “Open Letter of Gratitude 2Baba @ 25 Years in the Industry,” the multi-award-winning artist reflected on his musical odyssey, the people who supported him, and the lessons he has gathered over the years.

He described his career as one filled with gratitude, memories, lessons, and love, while acknowledging that his success story would not have been possible without the faith and support of those who stood by him even in uncertain times.

“As I stand on the threshold of 25 years in this incredible journey called music, my heart is full of gratitude, memories, lessons, and love.

“This celebration is not mine alone. It belongs to everyone who played a role in shaping the story of Innocent Idibia, 2Baba,” he wrote.

In his letter, 2Baba recognized several industry figures who were instrumental in his rise to fame, including Nelson Brown, Baba Keke (Kenny Ogungbe), D1 (Dayo Adeneye), Eddie Lawani, and DJ Jimmy Jatt.

He credited Nelson Brown for discovering and believing in Plantashun Boiz, the trio that launched his career alongside Faze and Blackface.

“You were the first to see light in the dream of three young men when no one else believed.

“You gave us a voice when we barely had a microphone, a space when all we had was a dream,” he said.

2Baba also expressed heartfelt gratitude to Baba Keke and D1, whom he referred to as mentors who opened professional doors that forever changed the course of his life and Nigerian entertainment as a whole.

“You opened doors that led us from dreams to destiny, we made history together; we won together.

“You stood as mentors and big brothers, and your names will forever be etched in my story,” he said.

The iconic singer extended appreciation to Eddie Lawani for providing a platform where Plantashun Boiz could showcase their talent when opportunities were scarce, noting that Lawani’s belief in their potential has never wavered.

He also lauded DJ Jimmy Jatt for his long-standing loyalty and support since the early days of his career, describing him as a brother and a constant source of encouragement.

2Baba emphasized that this milestone goes beyond personal achievement, stating that it represents a tribute to everyone who has contributed to the growth and global recognition of Nigerian music.

“Without the people who believed, corrected, and supported me, my story would have been incomplete.”

From his early beginnings in the late 1990s with Plantashun Boiz to becoming one of Africa’s most celebrated music icons, 2Baba’s legacy includes timeless classics such as African Queen, If Love Is a Crime, and For Instance.

Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka Banned From The US As His Visa Gets Permanently Revoked

Nobel laureate, Prof. Wole Soyinka, has disclosed that his United States visa was revoked during the administration of former U.S. President Donald Trump.

Soyinka made the revelation on Tuesday while addressing journalists at Kongi’s Harvest Gallery, Freedom Park, Lagos Island.

The literary icon said he was informed of the development by the U.S. Consulate through an official letter, noting that he was unaware of any reason for the decision.

“It is necessary for me to hold this conference so that people in the United States who are expecting me for this event or that event do not waste their time,” he said. “I have no visa; I am banned, obviously, from the United States. And if you want to see me, you know where to find me.”

Soyinka, however, stressed that he had never engaged in any criminal activity or violated U.S. laws to warrant such action.

“I’m still looking into my past history… I don’t have any criminal record or even a misdemeanour to qualify for the revocation,” he said. “I keep asking myself — have I ever misbehaved toward the United States of America? Have I gone against the law anywhere?”

He did not specify whether he had applied for a new visa or challenged the decision.

Rapper Zlatan Ibile Opens Up On How Fatherhood Changed Him

“The birth of my son changed me. It made me realise that life was getting more serious. I wasn’t prepared. I started paying house rent in London at 25. I was scared I might not be able to keep up with the bills because some people were saying I might not be relevant in the music industry for more than three years.

“I became more serious with managing my finances. Limited spending and started saving for diapers,” he recalled.

'I Feel Sorry For Men With Just One Wife'- Senator Ned Nwoko Drums Support For Polygamy As He Debunks Allegations Of Being Violent On His Estranged Actress Wife Regina Daniels

Senator Ned Nwoko has stirred fresh controversy on social media after saying that he feels “sorry for men with just one wife”, claiming that polygamy gives men more “stability and balance" in what appears to be him drumming support for the type of marriage. 

The Delta state politician made the statement during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Sunday, October 26, 2025 where he was also questioned about the ongoing marital debacle with his actress wife, Regina Daniels to which he answered without mincing words. 

When the interviewer asked him how he manages to handle four wives — something most men find nearly impossible — Senator Ned Nwoko paused a bit before responding confidently:

“That’s a different topic for another day. But yes, every man should do that. Imagine telling you to stand on one leg — it’s difficult. But when you stand on two, three, or four, you’re more balanced. That’s the example I give. I feel sorry for those who have one wife because it’s difficult to stand on one leg.”

When the interviewer pointed out that the Bible doesn’t support polygamy, the senator responded with alacrity by saying: “The Old Testament does. I’m a man of faith. But that’s not what we’re here for.”

Seun asked if he had any regrets about his marital choices, Nwoko firmly said no.

“No, I don’t have any regret. I would do the same thing again. That’s the way it should be — you should marry who you want to marry.”

The senator also debunked allegations of domestic violence made against him by Regina Daniels, who recently shared emotionally inclined posts suggesting that she had suffered abuse in the hands of the older man. 

 

“Come on, you know I’m not a violent person. I respect my wives. I love them and my kids,” he said.

His comments on the one-on-one interview with Channels TV's Seun Okinbaloye is coming some hours after his estranged actress wife, Regina, announced the purchase of a new Lagos house on her Instagram page amid ongoing separation rumours trailing them. 

The couple's six-year-old marriage which was the most talked about as at then because of their age gap appears to have hit the rocks with accusations flying left, right and center.
