Tems is a very big hit in the USA. I predict that she will win.

She is the most talented Nigerian female artist on the scene today. She is also well-mannered and well-behaved.

Burna Boy, Tems, Zakes Bantwini, Eddy Kenzo & More Are Nominated For 2023 Grammy Awards.

Hope lalasticlala and airmark have seen this story.

They are joined by Angélique Kidjo, Rocky Dawuni, Nomcebo Zikode and more African artists on the nominees list for next year's Grammy Awards.
The Recording Academy has released its list of nominees for the upcoming 2023 Grammy Awards show and several African artists have been given a nod.

Nigerian superstar Burna Boyand Beninese legend Angélique Kidjo are both nominated for Best Global Music Album.

Uganda's Eddy Kenzo, Ghana's Rocky Dawuni, South Africa's Wouter Kellerman, Zakes Bantwini and Nomcebo Zikode, and Burna Boy are all in the running for Best Global Music Performance.

Nigeria's continually buzzing Tems is nominated for "Wait For U," her collaboration with Future and Drake, under the Best Melodic Rap Performance and Best Rap Song. Angélique Kidjo is also nominated for her Woman King song "Keep Rising" under the Best Song Written for Visual Media category.

African music has been taking center stage, and the recent nominations have further proven that the world is paying attention to the sounds coming from the African continent.


The 65th installment of the award show will take place on Sunday, February 5, 2023, at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles. It will be exciting to see all of the honorees from the continent and how their hard work has paid off.

Last year, Burna Boy, Wizkid, Tems, Femi Kuti, Made Kuti, Angélique Kidjo, Rocky Dawuni, and Black Coffee were the African nominees.

Last year, Kidjo won an award for her 16th studio album Mother Nature, marking her fifth Grammy win. During a visit to Ghana earlier this year, Harvey Mason Jr., CEO of the Recording Academy, told reporters that the Grammys were considering an Afrobeats category. Mason said he had been meeting with important decision-makers in the genre to explore the possibility.

I am not a Tinubu supporter but what was stated is that, Deloitte has no record on Tinubu hence they cannot confirm the purported employment and payments.

Notice however that Deloitte did not deny or confirm that Tinubu ever worked for them or was paid as claimed by Tinubu. They simply claimed that they had no record of his employment.

Deloitte has no fiduciary duty to maintain employment records perpetually. In the US, record keeping, even for medical records is required for 7years only.

I'm afraid houdini, abi na Hundeyin, needs to go back to the drawing board.

How is one supposed to answer this question if he has 4?

While I am against drug use, I do not think that weed is more harmful than alcohol. Even Bill Clinton and Obama smoke weed, not to talk of Jagaban Borgu or Dino

Do not overreact. Treat him with love, talk to him as an adult, respectfully and set boundaries for him.

He is an adult and not the baby brother you grew up with. You'd be surprised as to how his behavior will change and how respectful he'd become if you show him love and understanding.

Don't drive him to the other side. May you have more wisdom in this matter.

Ndo o!

I wish the couple all the best. A friend got married in less time (within 20days). He is still happily married 30 years later.

So the thieves that stole the first time would repent because they print new currency, as if you are not in Nigeria, people would do everything to beat the system, if they decide to pay the loans their state have collected with the stash, do you think the banks wouldn't go to retrieve the loot, and they are many financial mechanism they can use to get the money back into the system without blinking an eye. What we are saying is that the timing is wrong. I use to have great respect for Wharton's graduate especially my friend, but Gov Emefiele has make me to only respect my friend and ignore his degree.
Theoretically he might think he is right,but Nigeria is full of surprises and na ordinary Nigerians go suffer.

You've completely missed my point. Only intellectual midgets would assume that redesigning the naira is the complete solution. Far from it!! This is only a miniscule part of the solution.

WhisperedNoise:


A PhD in mathematics is who you call an illiterate in basic economics? Omo, i doubt, with your empty treatise above, that you can bag a PhD in applied mathematics.


BTW, what you wrote up there is theoretical and it is NOT what the naira needs now. How do I know? I'm an advanced student of macro economics and global finance.

Please proffer your solution for improving the value of the naira since you are an advanced student of macro economics and global finance. How do we boost our depleted foreign reserves?

I'll be glad to learn from you Sir/Madam.

With dye respect, Adeboye sounds like an illiterate when it comes to monetary policies and basic economics.

The redesign of the naira will drastically reduce the demand for foreign currencies in the black market. The demand for foreign currency is very high because the thieves that have stashed billions of naira inside their homes and anywhere except the banks have been rushing to the black market to convert the loot to dollars.

The redesign will checkmate this stress on the naira. The redesign should reduce the demand for the dollar in the black market with a positive effect on the black market exchange rate.

Note that the official exchange rate has been stable and if you have a legitimate business reason, you can purchase the dollar for example, for N438 or so.

If we want to make the dollar stronger, we should reduce our imports and focus on exports, among other things. This has nothing to do with the redesign of the naira.

Adeboye should spend more energy and Redeem's money to help lift the poor out of poverty than on criticizing a great move by the government.

P.S. the dollar will be worth N1,000 soon with or without redesign of the naira. We need to deal with the root cause of the fall of the naira.

It is correct that Senators receive less than N1million in salaries

It is also correct that their allowances and fringe benefits are hundreds of millions of naira.

I visited Philadelphia area a few weeks ago and music by Tems was played multiple times through out the day on the most popular radio station there.

Truly, this girl has arrived.

What is the total number of duly registered voters?

This old fool, Tinubu, does not realize that every qualified Nigerian has a constitutional right to contest.

Tinubu should be the one seeking forgiveness. What nonesense!!!

How much did he donate to help his village people in Iragbiji ?

Where is Ganduje who was running around with Tinubu before the APC convention and who was present when the "e gbe kini yi wa, emi lokan" speech was delivered?

Did he collect money and run away as well?

michlins:
Transmission remains a problem in Nigeria

Indeed. Distribution is even worse.

Don't believe these massive seizures until you've seen the actual contents of those bags. Even if you see the contents of the bags, as long as the 'drugs' are not destroyed in a verifiable manner, you can't believe this story.

As far as I am concerned, this is an "audio seizure".

The culprits being paraded as kingpins look like poverty stricken and hungry victims. These people cannot pull this off. We are talking tons of drugs that are worth millions of dollars.

Shine your eyes.

Na only Suleman Waka come?

He should be investigated to eliminate his culpability in the deaths of the policemen and others in his convoy.

Clean living does not invite desperate assassination attempts.

Blitzerz:

You didnt hear that even police were killed?

Ho and re-read my post more carefully.

IamMobisola:


How many of your leaders buy bulletproof cars for their security details

What does your post have to do with compensating the families of the dead people the apostle hired to protect him?

The apostle was saved by his bulletproof car while the people killed in his convoy were not protected.

He needs to pay millions of naira to the families of the people killed while under his employment.

The pompous apostle thinks that he is invisible and claims that he cannot be killed. What nonsense!!!

Any mortal man can be killed or murdered. Your physical body can be killed at anytime.

These antics and childishnessof Wike simply show that he is unfit for the office of the Presidency.

Thank goodness he was outsmarted by better politicians in the PDP convention.

fiizznation:
ls really sad that musicians and foolish people are the ones that direct a very reasonable number of northerners on who to vote for.

A clown sings a silly song praising a candidate ; and puff before you know it, people are rhyming to the song. That's how they will go into the election and vote for incompetent people just because of a song they like.


This is sad!!!

This post is elitist. In a democracy, every person is free to trust whomever he/she wishes.

Organize your own sphere of influence and encourage folks to support your candidate of choice. If a group is beating you in the political game, then your own efforts may be inadequate.

Stop the player hating and learn to play instead.

Nna, these people get work at all?

Excellent execution of a perfect plan to cause chaos in the SE just in time for campaigning.

Tinubu or Obi will not be beneficiaries of this development.

As a matter of fact, masquerades (Ojuju) were seen flogging Obi supporters in a rally, earlier today.

naptu2, given that I can only like each of your posts on this thread once, kuku take 150 likes here.

Excellent thread!!!

God1000:
So Russia cannot defeat Ukraine in a conventional warfare, Putin should be ashamed of himself, the so-called 2nd most powerful military in world.

America learnt from world war II that if dictators are not made to pay a price for their aggression, they will cause more chaos, Adolf Hitler started this way.


He should know that the west is equally ready for him and his madness, Putin must be stopped in Ukraine.

Allowing him to take over Ukraine unchecked will further embolden him to invade other countries in eastern Europe which will eventually lead to world war III

Russia's humiliating defeat is glaring to all

Russia is not fighting Ukraine sir. This is a proxy war between Russia and the USA. $billion of millitary equipment and supplies have been sent to Ukraine from USA in addition to millitary support from US Generals. Don't be fooled.

Without US support, this war would have been over in weeks.

You people blabbing here are the elites of Nigeria. For every one of your votes there exist at least 20,000 votes of fellow Nigerian that are hungry and will sell their votes for N5000 to take care of immediate stomach infrastructure needs.

The youths are not yet serious to deal with Nigeria's problems decisively. As long as the fraudulent 1999 constitution remains in place, I'm afraid you'll remain fc k.ed for at least 4 more years. Nuff said

okoroemeka:
yes of course or less oyibo people are partial

Chances are that a prenuptial agreement exists.

Dope is not dope. Drug kills.

There r gamblers in America who own private jet.....

Oga, they did now get rich from gambling, but rather gamble for "fun" after becoming rich enough to buy private jets.

Only dummies should believe what is posted here.

Wike would land in prison for stealing from the commonwealth of the people of Rivers State after leaving office, in saner environments.

Main while his youthful victims are hailing him.
