Arise, Nigeria’s new anthem!

Believe in Nigeria, a national campaign that seeks to restore hope in the country has adopted the hit track ‘Arise’ ft Donjazzy, Reekado Banks & Di’ja as its theme song. The video for this song will be shot by none other than the award winning videographer Sesan Ogunro.

The focus of ‘Believe in NIgeria’ is to move away from all the things that tear us apart and focus on those things that bring us together.

The 2014 Most Beautiful Face in Nigeria queen, Rita Ijeoma Onyemaechi released these hot photos in celebration of Nigeria's Independence. See more pics below:

On Friday, 26th of September, 2014, news broke out that music star Tiwa Savage and her husband/manager were having a marital crisis. The reports were further fuelled by Tiwa’s actions on Tunji’s birthday.
What was supposed to have been a joyful day only revealed the cracks in the couple’s marriage as the usually PDA prone Tiwa didn’t wish her hubby a happy birthday till late evening.
However minor it looks, it took Tiwa almost 12 hours into the day for the singer to wish her hubby a happy birthday on September 26, 2014 via her Instagram page – it supposedly took a handful of fans clamouring for her to do so. When she eventually did by posting a photo of him on her Instagram page, there were no sweet words, no birthday message or wishes – except for three love emojis.
