Nigerian music sensation David Adeleke, known globally as Davido, has set a new record for the most-watched TikTok live stream in Africa.
The historic moment saw an impressive total of 389,800 viewers tuning in.
The session, which took place on Wednesday, October 30, saw Davido collaborating with popular TikTok influencers, Peller, Jarvis, and Jo Blaq.
The live stream captivated audiences, with over 164,000 people watching at the same time, making it an unforgettable event in Africa’s TikTok history.
During the session, Davido received a remarkable 377 lion gifts from fans.
These gifts, valued at $400 each, were sent in support and admiration for the superstar.
In a generous move, Davido later announced that he would distribute the funds earned from these gifts to his co-hosts, Peller, Jarvis, and Jo Blaq, acknowledging their roles in making the stream a huge success.
Before Davido’s groundbreaking record, Peller held the title for the most-watched TikTok livestream in Africa.
Peller, a well-known figure in the entertainment scene and the son of the famous Nigerian magician Professor Peller had previously set this record during a live stream featuring another music star, Tiwa Savage.
Davido’s record-breaking stream not only dethroned Peller but also marked a new milestone in African social media engagement, reflecting his immense influence and reach across the continent.
Nigerian actress Patience Ozokwor has spoken about parenting and shared advice with parents who overprotect and shield their children from the hardships of the real world.
The actress explained that excessive protection may not help children, as they may not learn how to cope with or adjust to life’s challenges. She reflected on her own approach to parenting and said “The fastest way to ruin a child’s life is to say you don’t want them to suffer the way you did.”
She added “When you’re gone, they may start fighting over your property. I told my son, ‘My house isn’t yours. Go and work for your own.’”
Priscilla Ojo and her husband, Juma Jux, have barred actress Lizzy Anjorin from posting about their son or about them on social media.
The couple filed the matter in court, and an interim order has officially been granted restraining the actress from publishing, posting, circulating, uploading or broadcasting photographs of their son on social media platforms.
The order also restrains Anjorin from publishing or broadcasting content concerning the couple on her social media platforms.
It can be noted that the actress and Priscilla’s mother, Iyabo Ojo, have been in a public dispute, and it appears the situation remains quite serious.
Former BBNaija housemate Tochi has shared relatable advice with his fellow ex-housemates, urging them to build their lives beyond the focus on celebrity.

He shared a relatable insight, noting that not everyone will become successful through the show and that ex-housemates should avoid getting lost in fame, as fame may eventually fade.
