Anikulapo, Kunle Afolayan's newest film, has reached a significant Netflix milestone.

According to reports, the epic title had 8,730,000 views in its first week.

Nearly two weeks after its streaming launch, the filmmaker just revealed statistics indicating that the epic title had reached number one internationally.

Anikulapo is now in Netflix's top ten list of most-watched non-English films, with a total of 8,730,000 global views.

“While this is being celebrated by Nigerians home and abroad, the acceptability of it from people around the world with different cultural backgrounds and beliefs proves beyond words that Anikulapo tells a universal story that every human across the world can relate to,” said Afolayan.

“It is also noteworthy to state that the movie in a great way creates an inclusiveness of both male and female character traits, bringing to light the fine thin line between lust and love, hate and resentment, illusion congratulations to us all and thanks to you guys out there for the reviews and referrals.”

The film, produced and directed by Afolayan and starring Kunle Remi, is set in the ancient Oyo kingdom and depicts a young man's yearning for better pastures.

On October 1, 2022, the Netflix original premiered to excellent reviews. The majority of its admirers praised the cast's performance and the depiction of Yoruba culture.

Afolayan has recently announced intentions for a film-based spin-off series.

The BBNaija star was recently trending because of claims that he had signed with EME. In a video, singer Banky W dispelled internet reports that he signed Whitemoney to Empire Mates Entertainment.

In an interview with a radio station, he recently disputed the accusations, stating unequivocally that he did not sign the reality TV celebrity.

According to the singer, EME changed from a record label to a media and marketing organization in 2017. He stated that he just supported Whitemoney in securing an ambassadorial relationship with a company that it advises.

Banky stressed that the arrangement was just for an influencer campaign for one of the corporate firms with which EME collaborates.

Recall that a few weeks ago, various reports surfaced that Whitemoney had been signed as an artist to the EME record label, run by Banky W, as a consequence of a tweet Whitemoney sent.

Because of the ambiguity of the caption, many people mistook it for the musician being signed by the record company.

"Let the music play now that we're in excellent hands. The release date for EGWU & YOU BAD is September 23, 22. Are You Prepared??? ", he said on Twitter.

Whitemoney has released four singles since winning Big Brother Naija, the most recent being Egwu & You Bad.

Enioluwa stated that he wanted to see the chance extended to other persons in the sector. Enioluwa Adeoluwa, a well-known social media celebrity, has announced his appointment as the European Union's ambassador to Africa.

Enioluwa, who is known for his engaging attitude on social media sites, came to Twitter to inform his followers. He said that this is an opportunity to help others, donate to charity, and collaborate with a group like @EUinNigeria, which helps people and communities.
