Actress Omoni Oboli, a well-known name in Nollywood films, recently spoke out about the importance of financial independence for women. She shared her message on Instagram on July 7, 2024.

Omoni Oboli believes women must have their own source of income, meaning a way to earn money themselves. She emphasized this point even more for women who are in relationships.

The music scene in Nigeria has been heating up in 2024! Although things started slowly, the past few months saw a wave of hit singles. TurnTable Charts, a popular music publication in Nigeria, just released their data on the most streamed songs for the first half of the year.

Interestingly, most of the chart-toppers were actually released in the latter part of 2023. That shows their lasting popularity!

Leading the pack is Kizz Daniel’s remix of “Twe Twe,” featuring the ever-popular Davido. Right behind at number two is Chike’s hit song “Egwu,” a collaboration with rising star Mohbad.

Rounding out the top three is Seyi Vibez with his smooth track “Cana.” Number four goes to Shallipopi’s “Cast,” a song that features Odumodublvk and dominated the charts for weeks. Seyi Vibez makes a second appearance on the list at number five with “Different Patterns.”

Only one female artist is cracking the top ten this time around: Ayra Starr. Her song “Commas,” a lead single from her recent album “The Year I Turned 21,” sits at number seven.

There’s also a little bit of international flavour on the chart! The South African group consisting of Titom, Yuppe, S.N.E, and EeQue makes a surprise appearance with their viral hit “Tshwala Bam,” landing the number ten spot.
