Davido Affirms Protection of Tiwa Savage Amidst Past Tensions.
Recent reports indicate a potential resolution to the previously strained relationship between Nigerian music icons Davido and Tiwa Savage. Despite past allegations of threats levied against Savage, stemming from a social media interaction involving Davido’s first baby mama, Sophia Momodu, Davido has publicly affirmed his dedication to Savage’s safety and well-being.
In a recent interview, Davido described Savage as his “sister for life,” emphasizing their long-standing bond and mutual respect within the industry. He further vowed to protect her with all his resources.
This statement comes a year after Savage filed a petition alleging threats against her, and despite initial reactions, including a protective response from Savage’s ex-husband, Teebillz, Davido’s recent declaration suggests a commitment to reconciliation and a renewed sense of camaraderie within the Nigerian music scene. It remains to be seen how this development will further evolve the dynamics between these influential figures.
The Nigerian film industry is in mourning following the death of Kayode Peters, a renowned filmmaker and producer. The news was announced by his family on his official Instagram page, stating that he passed away peacefully on the morning of Saturday, June 28, 2025, in Toronto, Canada, after a long illness.
Peters, fondly known as KP, was celebrated for his contributions as a filmmaker, actor, and producer. He was known for his role as Koko in the popular sitcoms “Twilight Zone” and “Flatmates” in the early 2000s. His work also extended to stage plays and sitcoms like “Extended Family” and “Being Farouk,” significantly impacting Nigeria’s contemporary theatre and television landscape.
He is survived by his wife, Alexander, and their children. Funeral arrangements are underway, and further details will be shared by the family in due course. The industry and fans alike will deeply miss his warmth, generosity, and contributions to Nollywood.
Popular Nigerian skit maker, Carter Efe, has reportedly lost access to his Instagram and TikTok accounts. This development follows recent criticism leveled against Afrobeat artist Wizkid during a TikTok live stream.
Efe’s comments, in which he accused Wizkid of pride, triggered a backlash from Wizkid’s fanbase, known as Wizkid FC. Subsequently, Efe claimed on X (formerly Twitter) that his Instagram account, boasting 1.8 million followers, was taken down by Wizkid FC. He later released an apology video stating that his TikTok account had also been blocked.
Efe has appealed to Wizkid and Wizkid FC for forgiveness and the restoration of his accounts.

His comments, made via social media on Wednesday, arrive amidst ongoing discussions regarding impact and legacies, spurred by the recent exchange between Odumodublvck and Blaqbonez.
In his statement on X, Terry G declared, “You can’t talk about cultural impact in Nigeria without talking about Terry G. I am the culture!” This pronouncement underscores his belief in his lasting effect on the evolution of Nigerian music.
