In light of these feats, the singer has said his country people love him now because the rest of the world does.
While talking about his album which will be released Friday, 26th July, 2019, and his music in an interview with Billboard, the Rivers State born singer said his plan is to take his music worldwide and also play in a stadium in China.
But first, he’ll embark on a 17-date global tour of 1,000- to 3,000-capacity venues starting Aug. 9 in Toronto.
“This has always been my vision,” he says. “Not like I planned it, just that I knew I should stick to doing what I’m doing. It’s almost like climbing steps — you keep going up.”

“Nigerians love me a lot more now because they can see that the whole world likes me, too. They think I’m something special, but I’m not. I’m just a human whose skill is making music. Way I see it, everyone plays their own role in the world, and no role is more important than the other.”

“You are only as rich as where you come from, and Nigeria has a lot of poverty.”

Francis Agoda aka Comedian I Go Dye has issued a word of advice to all those who think social media is just an avenue for noisemakers to express themselves.
In a post he shared on Instagram, Francis Agoda revealed that social media is rather a means for social change because the outcry witnessed on social media has changed lots of lives.
He also advised people to make use of the various social media platforms to lend their voice towards ensuring that government see to the needs of people. According to him, doing such is better than opposing voices using social media to achieve such aim.
He wrote:
“FOR THOSE WHO THINK PEOPLE MAKE NOISE ON SOCIAL MEDIA YOU ARE WRONG. Social media is means of mass commmuncation that has given hope and caused uprising in many countries . It has created a means of protest to many issues, generating attention and mediums of social change and revolt against government, helping those who have oppressed to be heard.You may not believe in the out cry on social media, but I can gladly tell you that it has liberated many people and it’s the most formidable means of speaking and reaching out to the larger society in this 21st century. We can’t make progress as a nation if all we do is remain silent and take up arms as the only means of expressing our displeasure on certain issues against government.
Please try and lend your voice to any issue with positive outcome, instead of looking for easy means to castigate those whose voice of reason have impacted the course of a change. To further bring to your notice, the likes of Fela had no reason to speak against government at the time he did, because he wasn’t from a poor home, but he spoke against many people and government policies, which really changed a lot of issues.
I thank all the bloggers in Nigeria especially you for using your social media platforms for positive change. Words are powerful and there is nothing compared to the strength of collectively speaking against injustice or promoting the success of others in good faith. From Amb Francis Agoda logic and reason without guns“
A live snake disrupted legislative activities on Thursday, leaving lawmakers running for safety.
The snake dropped from the roof of the chamber, leaving lawmakers scampering for safety, according to a report by Channels TV.
Legislative activities were then suspended until the complex is renovated.
Speaking with newsmen, the chairman House committee on information, Gbenga Omole confirmed that the house had adjourned indefinitely following the deplorable condition of the hallowed chamber. Omole said that the house was about to seat on Wednesday when a snake dropped from the termite infested ceiling at the center of the chamber.
“Again, we were at the plenary when the ceiling caved in beside the speaker. Omole said “When we were about to enter into plenary, a big snake just ran out of the chamber which disrupted our sitting and we had to hurriedly leave the chamber
“We are about to seat again today when a ceiling caved in directly where Mr. Speaker was sitting, the whole house was agitated and when we look around we saw the damage the termite had done to most of the woodwork in the ceiling.
“At that point, we had to call ourselves and adjourned the sitting. That chamber is no longer safe for legislative business and because of that, we decided to adjourn indefinitely. The house will be going on an indefinite recess.
“We need to intimate the state governor Rotimi Akeredolu about this development and we have decided to meet him on this.
“The Governor is aware of the infrastructural decay here because of the things here are outdated and not too good for legislative business. “As at now, the House has not been given the autonomy we are agitating for, because if it has happened, we don’t need to consult the governor. You know how things are being run presently, every arm of government need to look up to the executive to get things done.
“But pending the approval of the legislative autonomy, we have to look towards the executive where the governor is in charge and we will have to appeal to him to come to our aid because we have a lot of business to do and there is a lot of bills to be treated.
“When I said we are going on recess, we will continue to come to our offices but sitting down in that chamber is what is not going to happen.
“We have written to Mr Governor for him to know what is happening here Omole, however, said
“We eventually killed the snake but there are a lot of reptiles hibernating in the roof of the chamber, and whenever it rains, the whole chamber is flooded.
