Nigerian actor Olanrewaju Omiyinka, popularly known as Baba Ijesha, has reportedly been released from prison after spending more than three years in custody.

The news was announced by fellow actor and close associate Yomi Fabiyi, who shared the update in an Instagram post on Friday. According to Fabiyi, Baba Ijesha regained his freedom after an appeal court overturned his conviction for the sexual assault of a minor.

“You are now officially FREE AND OUT. Baba Ijesha is not just back but BETTER,” Fabiyi wrote, celebrating the court decision and his colleague’s release.

Baba Ijesha had been serving a sentence handed down by a Lagos court before the successful appeal.

Nigerian global music icon Davido Adeleke brought the energy of his acclaimed 5ive Alive World Tour to a thunderous finale at the Liberty Stadium in Ibadan on Tuesday, November 12, 2025.

The performance marked a symbolic homecoming for Davido, who first graced an Ibadan stage in 2011 as an up-and-coming artist. Fourteen years later, he returned as one of Africa’s biggest stars commanding a crowd of tens of thousands and wrapping up the Nigerian leg of his sold-out world tour.

Fans filled the stadium hours before showtime, chanting his name and waving light sticks as anticipation built. Davido delivered a two-hour set packed with career-defining hits, including Dami Duro, If, Fall, Unavailable, and Feel. The stage production featured pyrotechnics, LED visuals, and guest appearances from Afrobeat collaborators such as Mayorkun and Logos Olori.

Tour organizers revealed that the 5ive Alive concerts sold over 98,000 tickets across Nigeria, with stops in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, and Ibadan. The tour, launched earlier in 2025, has drawn international acclaim for its precision, crowd engagement, and Davido’s ability to blend nostalgia with modern Afrobeat energy.

However, the tour wasn’t without somber moments. Reports of two fatalities from overcrowding at the Enugu stop earlier in the month cast a shadow over the celebrations. While Davido’s management has not released an official statement, sources close to the artist confirmed that financial and emotional support was quietly extended to the victims’ families.

In Ibadan, Davido took a reflective pause between songs to thank his fans for their loyalty:

“Ibadan was one of the first cities that believed in me. From 2011 till now look where we are. This is love, this is home,” he said to roaring applause.

As the 5ive Alive tour now prepares to move to Europe and North America, Davido’s Ibadan performance stands as both a triumphant homecoming and a reminder of his decade-long journey as a symbol of modern Nigerian music excellence.

Davido’s extravagant purchase has once again proven that he’s not just winning in music he’s winning in life. With back-to-back hits, international tours, and mega endorsement deals, the singer continues to redefine what it means to be a global Afrobeats superstar.

BONA NAIJA will continue to follow Davido’s luxury lifestyle updates because when OBO moves, the world watches.

Afrobeats superstar Burna Boy made his much-anticipated debut on Twitch during a late-night “In The Booth” session with popular streamer PlaqueBoyMax on Wednesday, pulling in thousands of live viewers worldwide.

The Nigerian Grammy winner engaged in a mix of music discussions, live freestyles, and spontaneous fan interactions, marking his first major appearance on a live-streaming platform.

During the stream, Burna Boy revealed that he has three new projects in the works and reaffirmed his commitment to writing all his own lyrics — a statement that drew praise from fans for his authenticity. He also spoke candidly about his preference for living in Nigeria, citing its freedom compared to the high incarceration rates in America.

The broadcast took a humorous turn when a user with the name “Davido” gifted multiple subscriptions, triggering laughter and playful commentary about the long-rumored rivalry between the two Afrobeats giants.

The freestyle session quickly went viral across social media platforms, with clips circulating on X (formerly Twitter) and TikTok, and fans celebrating Burna Boy’s unfiltered personality and cross-platform versatility.

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has cautioned nightclub operators and fun seekers across Nigeria against the growing trend of organizing and attending “drug parties”, describing the practice as a serious criminal offence under Nigerian law.

The warning follows a major raid conducted by NDLEA operatives at Proxy Night Club, located at 7 Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, on the night of Saturday, October 25, into the early hours of Sunday, October 26, 2025.

According to a statement released on Monday, October 28, by NDLEA spokesperson Femi Babafemi, over 100 attendees were arrested during the operation, alongside the club owner Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu, popularly known as Pretty Mike, and his manager Joachin Millary, who are currently in custody.

“Any gathering organized for the purpose of consuming, distributing, or abusing illicit substances is an act of criminality,” Babafemi said. “These ‘drug parties’ contravene the NDLEA Act and will be treated as serious narcotic offences.”

The agency disclosed that its operatives had conducted undercover surveillance on the club prior to the raid, including pre-purchases of illicit substances, to confirm reports of ongoing drug transactions.

“For four hours, between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m., our operatives observed and recorded drug transactions and abuse before disrupting the brazen display of illegality,” Babafemi added.

NDLEA officials reportedly seized 384.882 kilograms of Canadian Loud, a potent strain of cannabis, along with other narcotic substances from the club’s storage area.

While all attendees were later profiled, counselled, and released, in line with international best practices, the two principal suspects Pretty Mike and his manager remain in NDLEA custody pending further investigation.

The agency reiterated its commitment to enforcing drug laws and urged Nigerians to refrain from attending or promoting drug-related events, warning that anyone found complicit will face prosecution.
