[quote author=rayzzz post=30244996]6. D’Banj:


Though he’s no longer a force to be reckoned with in the music scene and he’s lately been hugging the headlines not because of his musical exploits but because of the alleged numerous debt scandals he’s been embroiled in, he has not fallen off the radar in the social media world. His tweets and posts are still well received, with thousands of retweets, favourites, likes and comments each time he sends something out with his social media accounts. On Twitter, his following is 1.05-million-strong. On Facebook and Instagram the figures are 1.18 million and about 70,000 respectively. Unlike his former business partner Don Jazzy, he doesn’t interact with his followers that much on the social media, but that has had very little or no bearing on his internet following.

7. Olamide:


The self-styled “Voice of the Street” is as massive on the social media as he is on the streets of South Western Nigeria. On Twitter, his following is a healthy 450,000 and on Instagram it’s almost 290,000.

8. Banky W:


The R&B crooner burst into the Nigerian music scene with his Naija-flavoured remix of Rihanna’s first hit single “Umbrella,” which he titled “Ebutemeta” and further cemented his place as one of the brightest and most talented stars in the local music scene with his biggest hit till date, “Strong Thing.” His persona and … has drawn him a host of admirers, many of whom follow him on online. The US-born entertainer commands Nigeria’s 5th largest celebrity Twitter following with 940,000. He’s not much of a Facebooker, but that didn’t deter his community page from attracting 464,000 likes. On Instagram, he’s followed by 158,000. Like Don Jazzy, he often uses his social media accounts for political and social activism.

9. Tiwa Savage:


The sizzling Mavin first lady is the queen of the social media in the Nigerian music scene. She easily beats out other female acts like Chidinma, Omawunmi and Waje to the top spot. Despite only bursting into the local scene from the Diaspora in 2010, she has managed to carve out a niche for herself and build her brand around it. She’s not the type that shies away from controversy; she courts them actually – an attitude that has won her lots of admirers and pissed off a whole lotta others. Such controversies, however, are the perfect ingredients for social media stardom and notoriety. She may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but she has really done well for herself in so short a period of time. Her Twitter fanbase is 895,000-strong and her Instagram statistics are equally intimidating with about 315,000 followers.

10. Ice Prince:



Panshak Zamani rounds off the list of the 10 most influential Nigerian musicians on the social media. His verified Twitter account is followed by about 610,000 tweeps and his official Facebook page has attracted nearly 1 million likes (precisely about 990,000), while on Facebook’s Instagram he has about 335,000 followers. Not bad for an artiste whose big break came in June 2010 with the release of “Oleku” featuring Brymo.

Worthy mentions: MI, Omawumi, Waje, Flavour N’abania, Wande Coal, Phyno, Naeto C, Sound Sultan, Jesse Jagz and Timaya.

Nice but here is an important info...
Is President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan Really Bad?
(As wrtten by -Yusuf Adeyanju Yisau)- I think he
has done well. I challenge the Buhari supporters
give me 10 things Buhari has achieved for this
country.
1] Goodluck Jonathan signed FOI bill that Obasanjo
refused to sign and you join then in saying that
Goodluck is bad.
2] Goodluck approved N18,000 Minimum wage
from N7,500 Which Obasanjo refused to sign and
you say that Goodluck is bad and NYSC allowance
from N7,500 to nearly approved N39,500, yet they
say he is bad.
3] Goodluck dualized federal roads (about
25,000km) which Obasanjo and past Govts
abandoned and you say Goodluck is bad.
4] The rail system is working now, with little
budget But Obasanjo Sunk billions of dollars
without result, other pasts leader ignored and you
say that Goodluck is bad.
5] Goodluck has been conducting free and fair
elections whereas the ones conducted under
Obasanjo are Shameful and national disgrace yet
you say Goodluck is bad.
6] Goodluck established 12 new universities, 9 in
the North to improve learning and knowledge and
increase the Jambites admission rate, yet you say
that Goodluck is bad.
7] Goodluck established the Almajiri system for
Northern abandoned street children and those
deprived of education by their own people and you
say Goodluck is bad.
8] Goodluck has been building dams and improving
the country's power from 2500mW to 6,000MW -
And successfully privatized the sector which many
analyst believed is the best way to go and you
joined them say that Goodluck is bad.
9] Agriculture have been revamped and for the first
time in Nigerian history, Food prices came down
during Christmas, instead of skyrocketing and you
say that he is a bad President.
10] 2013 and 2014 was the Christmas in Nigeria,
where Nigerian did not sleep in filling stations for 3
to 4 days to get Petrol or 100s of people being
roasted alive in attempts to get fuel in petrol
stations, wickedly, you joined them to say that our
God given President is not performing.
11] Airports are wearing world class looks and
every zone have International airport and you say
Goodluck is bad.
12] This administration has employed more people
in their 5years in office than any other in the
history of Nigeria [Via Agric, Energy sector,16 New
Car Companies, 12 New Universities, 3,826 primary
Health care Centers, Teaching Hospitals] SURE-P,
YOUWIN and you say Goodluck is bad.
Now do you think that General Muhammadu Buhari
will perform magic, which he could not do when he
was in his 40s, if you vote him?
What else do they want from President Goodluck
Ebele Jonathan?
Dude/babe,get a life,we are talking celebrities here not politics,get a handle on your brain#think before commenting

4. Don Jazzy:


The Doro-Boss may not be the boss of the Nigerian social media scene, but he definitely can hold his own on it, anytime, any day. Nigeria’s biggest and most popular music producer has quite an intimidating social media statistics. On Twitter (which he uses very often to interact with his fans and not merely to post updates about upcoming shows, perhaps more than any other Nigerian A-list celebrity) he has about 1.02 million followers; on Facebook he has close to 750,000 likes on his verified page; and on Instagram he’s not doing badly either, with over 350 million followers. Being the boss of the biggest and most star-studded music label in the country of course comes with additional perks and added popularity to his own personal brand.


Did u just said 350Million followers on IG
