Theo Ukpaa's Tiger Republic Films has signed a multi-million naira production partnership with ZeeWorld. The interesting part is not the deal. It is which direction the content is travelling.
An Instagram story about an INEC official at his uncle's certificate ceremony. Then a direct message to Adegboyega Oyetola two days later. Nigeria's biggest pop export is campaigning, and nobody is calling it that.
Jide Kosoko says more than 500 Nigerians have come forward offering spiritual treatment for Taiwo Hassan. The actor is in hospital with stage four cancer. The offers are sincere and they are also the problem.
Seven months of public speculation, a breakup nobody announced, and a denial of cheating that arrives with a detail about jewellery. Bella has called him a liar. Neither of them owed anyone this conversation.
Seyi Vibez posted on 14 August. Olaniwun Ajayi LP wrote on 15 August citing defamation and the Cybercrimes Act, with a three-day deadline. The posts are gone. That sequence is the whole story.
Wande Coal's fifth album came out on 26 June with fifteen tracks and a guest list that reads like a genre census. It is back on Nigerian blogs this week, which says something about how albums actually live here.
3,941,409 Spotify streams on the first full day. Top of the chart in Nigeria, Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda, Malawi, Cameroon, Chad, Liberia, Sierra Leone and Papua New Guinea. Read that list carefully.
MTV published the 2026 VMA list with two Nigerians on it and Best Afrobeats quietly missing. Both facts are true at once, and which one you lead with tells you what you think the genre is for.
He has not played a competitive match since 2015. He is now part of the ownership group at Ravenna, and the owner says he will actually appear in a Serie C fixture. Nigerian football should look closely at why.
Julian Alvarez unavailable, Alexander Sorloth injured, and a 2-0 win over Malaga to open the season. Atletico's Nigerian forward is being asked to lead the line in a position he has never really played.
Sanwo-Olu handed N20m apiece to students with 4.96 and 4.97 CGPAs, in the same month Nigerian social media has been busy calling successful young people olodo. The two stories are the same argument.
Seven years and seven months as a permanent secretary, across police affairs, humanitarian affairs and the Vice President's office. He inherits the machine that has to deliver an election and a reform programme at the same time.
INEC published Hope Uzodimma as the APC candidate for Imo West with 230,464 votes. A sworn affidavit in Okorocha's suit puts the count at 150,780 to 102,158 the other way. Both cannot be right.
Observers checked the announced results against their own count and the numbers held. Now civil society wants that treated as the floor for 2027, not as a good day that happened once.
Presidential and National Assembly campaigning opened on 19 August. Nigerians vote on 16 January 2027. That is five months of everything you are about to hear, and the shape of the contest is already visible.
The Federal Executive Council has approved a bill to decriminalise attempted suicide. Around 300,000 Nigerians attempt it every year, and until this passes, every one of them is committing an offence.
A season-long loan from Wrexham, one year left on the contract, and a free agency date next summer. For a goalkeeper who only became Nigerian in April, the next nine months decide a great deal.
EUR130m was refused. So was EUR150m, with a EUR50m annual salary attached for the player. Dursun Ozbek's board is turning down the biggest fee ever offered for an African footballer, and the reason is not sentiment.
The Federal Government released N12bn to the NFF for player wages and bonuses. Two anti-graft agencies now hold the paperwork, and the National Assembly cannot agree on what the disbursement figures say.
Abdul Ningi's committee wants Shehu Dikko and Ibrahim Gusau in a room to explain two failed World Cup campaigns. Nigeria has held this meeting before, and the meeting has never been the thing that fixed it.
