Davido Said His Verse Was "Stupid Hard." Wande Coal Said "That Song Did Well Without You on It." Now Nigeria Is Picking Sides.

It started as a podcast revelation. Davido said his verse on Wande Coal's "Come My Way" was "stupid hard" and explained why it never dropped. Wande Coal went on X within hours and called the whole story a lie. By Tuesday evening Nigerian music Twitter had split into two camps and neither artist was backing down. Here is the full story, from the podcast to the personal insults.

The IMF has confirmed that Nigeria omitted approximately 2% of GDP, equivalent to N8.83 trillion, from recent official budgets. The IMF's own Article IV report puts the statistical discrepancy at 2.7% of GDP. The government has quietly begun repeal and re-enactment of budget laws to bring the spending on record.

Seven known Boko Haram and ISWAP commanders flew to Mecca for the 2026 Hajj pilgrimage and were arrested at Katsina International Airport on their return.

For 15 years, Franklin Ikechukwu Nwadialo used dating sites like Match, Zoosk and Christian Café to find widows and divorced women, tell them he was a soldier deployed overseas named "Giovanni," and slowly drain their savings. Eight victims lost a combined $3.5 million. One widow lost her home. Another spent three years in a fake relationship before the FBI told her the truth. On June 23, 2026, a federal judge in Tacoma called it "not an exaggeration to say it ruined lives" and sentenced him to five years in federal prison.

On June 26, 2026, the Federal High Court in Lokoja set aside the December 2025 judgment that had forced INEC to register the NDC. The ruling reversed the party's legal existence because an earlier case was decided without hearing the Peace Movement Party, which claims NDC stole its logo. INEC is ready to delist them. Peter Obi called the ruling "bizarre." His lawmakers called it a "judicial coup against democracy." The NDC is heading to the Court of Appeal. Here is every detail.
