Vector Discusses Childhood and Parental Support
Nigerian rapper Vector recently opened up about his upbringing and how his parents encouraged his passion for music. In an interview with Chude Jideonwo on the *With Chude* show, he said his childhood shaped his resilience and approach to life. “My childhood gave me the mindset of ‘whatever the weather, I’ll do what I want.’ I was stubborn and detached, like my mom and grandma would say. I always questioned why Yoruba elders were seen as always right, and I challenged that.”
Vector credited his parents for raising him and his siblings with balance, especially his sister, who has sickle cell anemia. He explained, “I learned to self-reflect. African parents tend to parent in a standard way, but mine didn’t show favoritism, even towards my sister, a sickle cell warrior. Despite her condition, she’s now a mother of two. That shows how well they cared for all of us.”
He also shared how his family embraced his identity as an artist. “At some point, my parents called me Vector the viper because that’s who I became. They supported my brother too, who’s a DJ. My parents were lenient but made us work for what we believed in. I felt loved, even though we didn’t have a luxurious upbringing.”
Nigerian pastor Dolapo Lawal spoke on the reality of living abroad and what people do not see online.
He shared the insight that many Nigerians who relocate to other countries mainly move there for survival and not necessarily for wealth.
“How many people you know that are in the UK who are billionaires? They go there to survive. They don’t go there to be rich. All of them are going there to do care jobs. They’re going there to survive.”
He then shared that it is better to be a billionaire in Nigeria and stated that success can sometimes come easier at home than relocating abroad.
Sandra has spoken out and broken her silence on the alleged affair involving Chike. She shared that she was faithful throughout her marriage and claimed that only Frank Edoho cheated.
Sandra revealed that Frank allegedly cheated multiple times and even claimed that a particular woman was frequently seen around their home, stating that he was definitely involved with her.
She also stated that she has evidence against Frank, including receipts from hotels and places where he allegedly met with his dates.
Popular singer Shakira and Nigerian singer Burna Boy have reportedly released “Daidia,” a song linked to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It was also noted that the two artists are expected to perform during the event, and the song for the occasion has now been released.
This will not be the first time Shakira will perform for the World Cup. Whenever her name is mentioned, many people remember “Waka Waka,” the iconic World Cup song released for the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa.
The 2026 FIFA World Cup is scheduled to take place from June 11, 2026, to July 19, 2026, across the United States, Canada, and Mexico.
Many fans are already excited and cannot wait to see the live performance on the big stage.
