Davido speaks out, saying Nigeria doesn’t have the right leaders.
Nigerian Afrobeats icon David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has recently articulated a compelling perspective on the pressing need for strong leadership in Nigeria and Africa. In a candid interview with Elevate Africa, he emphasized that while Nigerians possess remarkable resilience and adaptability, the absence of visionary leadership remains a significant barrier to the nation’s progress.
Davido’s poignant remarks underscore a fundamental truth: without effective leaders, the collective potential of citizens cannot be fully realized. He stated emphatically, “We can’t go forward without… we need the best leaders now first, that’s the most important thing.” This assertion resonates deeply with the myriad challenges faced by the country, where innovation and ambition often clash with a lack of strategic direction.
The singer further elaborated on the tenacity of Nigerians, noting that the ability to flourish in adverse conditions speaks volumes about their strength of character. He illustrated this by asserting, “If you can survive in Lagos … you can survive anywhere.” This powerful sentiment reflects a broader narrative of resilience that many Nigerians embody, highlighting their significant global presence and cultural impact.
In a landscape where the need for exemplary leadership is paramount, Davido’s insights serve as a call to action for stakeholders across all levels of governance. The potential for extraordinary progress exists, contingent upon the emergence of leaders who can harness this inherent strength for the greater good. Indeed, the future of Nigeria and Africa rests not just on the shoulders of its citizens but also on the vision and integrity of its leaders.
Over the weekend in Lagos, Joy Raimi Mojisola was crowned Miss World Nigeria 2025. The 24-year-old, representing Osun State, secured the title after a rigorous competition featuring 37 contestants representing all states in Nigeria.
The grand finale narrowed the field to 20 finalists, culminating in a final round that pitted Ms. Mojisola against representatives from Ebonyi, Abuja, Abia, and Imo states.
Ms. Mojisola’s victory earns her the privilege of representing Nigeria at the 72nd Miss World pageant. She will travel to India from May 7th to 31st to compete against delegates from approximately 140 countries. We wish her the best of luck in this prestigious international event.
Nigerian rapper Tochukwu Ojogwu, known professionally as Odumodublvck, recently addressed public speculation regarding the visibility of his children. In a post shared on his X account alongside a photograph of himself with his two children, the artist clarified that his decision to keep them out of the public eye is not rooted in concealment.
Odumodublvck explicitly stated, “I did not hide my kids from the world, I hid the world from my kids.” This statement emphasizes his protective intent, highlighting his desire to shield his children from the potential pressures and scrutiny associated with media exposure.
While sharing this glimpse into his personal life, the 31-year-old musician refrained from revealing the identity of the children’s mother, maintaining a degree of privacy surrounding his family. His explanation underscores a growing trend amongst public figures to prioritize the well-being and privacy of their offspring in an increasingly hyper-connected world.
Recent unconfirmed speculation circulating online alleges the involvement of Nigerian content creators Brain Jotter and Ekwutosi in a sensitive and concerning situation. These reports, which remain unsubstantiated, claim Ekwutosi is pregnant, leading to an alleged abortion and subsequent complications.
Further fueling speculation is a statement from content creator Mariam Oyakhilome, who has publicly expressed concern and indicated attempts to contact Ekwutosi’s family.
Given the nature of these allegations and the lack of official confirmation, it is paramount to exercise extreme caution. Spreading unverified information can be incredibly damaging to all parties involved.
We urge readers to refrain from making judgments or sharing these rumors until verified facts emerge. Prioritizing accuracy and responsible reporting is crucial in preventing the dissemination of misinformation and ensuring the well-being of those potentially affected. Let us focus on verifying the facts before contributing to the online narrative.
