Wande Coal Claims to Have Pioneered New Sound in Nigerian Music
Oluwatobi Wande Ojosipe, known as Wande Coal, asserts that he pioneered the new sound in Nigerian music and influenced the current generation of Afrobeats artists gaining global recognition.
In a recent interview with Cool FM Lagos, the ‘Bumper 2 Bumper’ singer declared his legendary status and commitment to pushing musical boundaries.
“I’m the best at what I do. I’m a legend. I know what I came to this industry to do. I brought the new generation of sound and the new wave of new artistes that’s happening now,” Wande Coal said.
He emphasized his dedication to versatility and working with new producers, stating, “Music is very universal.
That’s why there are many genres of music. Since I came into the industry, I’ve shown versatility in my songs.” Wande Coal initially broke into the Nigerian entertainment scene as a dancer.
Nigerian news analyst, Mahmud Jega, has shared his opinion on the recent airstrike carried out by the United States in Nigeria, stating that Nigerians should not blame President Bola Tinubu for the incident.
Jega made this statement during a recent interview, where he said he does not believe many people will hold the Tinubu administration responsible, as Donald Trump had issued threats against Nigeria long before Tinubu’s administration.
“No, I don’t think many people will blame the Tinubu administration for what is happening now because President Donald Trump, when he first made the threats, it was clearly not in coordination with the Tinubu administration or the government of Nigeria,” Jega said.
It has been reported that the United States carried out an airstrike targeting ISIS in the northwest region of Nigeria. The order was reportedly given by former U.S. President Donald Trump.
“Tonight, at my direction as Commander in Chief, the United States launched a powerful and deadly strike against ISIS terrorist elements in northwest Nigeria,” Trump said.
He added, “I have previously warned these terrorists that if they did not stop the slaughtering of Christians, there would be hell to pay, and tonight, there was.”
The Federal Government of Nigeria has officially declared the holiday dates for the festive season.
Thursday, December 25 will be observed as Christmas Day, December 26 as Boxing Day, and Thursday, January 1 as New Year’s Day.
The declaration was made by the Permanent Secretary of the Ministry of Interior, Dr. Magdalene Ajani. He also added that Nigerians should celebrate the holidays in faith and pray for the nation.
