Arafa, one of the cast of Real Housewives of Abuja, initiated a drama that can be likened to a Chioma and Laura’s fight in the season one of Real Housewives of Lagos.

In the first episode, all the girls met at Samantha’s party and in keeping with the Real Housewives tradition. In the second episode of the Showmax Original reality series, it was Arafa’s turn to have the girls over for a “drag-themed party.”

The drama began with who got an invite or not, but that’s not our focus here.

The ladies pulled off the theme look and they gave good surprises, especially Princess Jecoco. The Princess, through her chatter, claimed that she and Arafa supposedly knew each other before the show.

Princess said she and Arafa were “acquaintances” from the multiple parties they had attended or met, but Arafa was having none of that. Like deja vu, Arafa denied knowing Princess.

As if that wasn’t enough, the Princess insisted on being an acquaintance of Arafa at her party when she spoke with the other ladies, but Arafa still maintained her stance. If looks could choke, Princess Jecoco would have spluttered and coughed from the look the party girl was giving her.

Lekan Osifeso Jr, who is widely referred to as Lojay, has opened up on how his experience on the streets of Lagos inspired his sophomore album entitled Gangster Romantic.

In a recent chat, Lojay said when creating the music project, he was coming from a place where he has just gone through several things and he decided to channel it all into the project.

“When I was creating the project, it was coming from a place of just having been through stuff in Nigeria, just being through streets of Lagos, especially with everything that’s happened in the last 12, 18 months, and I just wanted to express that,” he began.

Continuing, Lojay said “In that time I’ve seen “shege,” and for me to survive the “shege” I’ve understood that I just can’t be a romantic. In order to survive I need to toughen up in these streets and be a gangster a bit. This project is an expression of that, it’s an expression of everything that’s happened in the last 12, 18 months and it’s an expression of where I’m at right now, emotionally.”

Lojay became popular after his collaboration with famous music producer Sars on the monster hit song, ‘Monalisa.’ He peaked at number 8 on the billboard U.S. afrobeats songs chart with his song Monalisa, in which he features Chris Brown and Sarz.

Following the success of his most recent project, ‘Hello,’ Afro fusion talent Hussy has put himself on his toes ahead of a robust body of work.

With ‘Hello’ the afro pop talent showcased his afro pop prowess and his capability to fuse both high life and Fuji vibe into his craft.

Hussy, who is signed on The Butterfly Gang, recently teased of more works to come as it is believed that there will be solo releases from the bands star man following his recent taste for the addictive notion of success.

Although Hussy and the Butterfly Gang band have been very tight-lipped about his future plans following his recent success, sources are already suggesting the afro fusion talent will not relent in pushing beyond boundaries.

His lyrical flair and rhythm has been one of the main talking points currently attracting a lot of attention to his music making him one of the most prolific breakthrough artists last year. Creating something original from his band and showing his overall ability to stand out clearly indicates that the youngster is destined for stardom and is not shy under the spotlight.
