‘Nigeria Is Designed To Frustrate You’ – Toke Makinwa Says As She Calls Out The Fire Service

Makinwa says it took the fire service 20 hours before responding to a fire incident in her house.

Mediapreneur, Toke Makinwa,  has called out the fire service department after they failed to show up immediately after a fire incident at her residence.

In a series of tweets shared via her Twitter page on Tuesday, March 23, 2021, the media personality slammed the organization for its delay in putting out the fire.

"Nigeria is jokes man, this is a fucking movie. There was a fire at my house last night, thank God it was curtailed, emergency fire department was called guys guess what time they strolled in to my house? 1pm today," she tweeted.

"This country is designed to frustrate you, you call on the fire department and they show up almost 20 hours later asking questions like “who put out the fire”? I am still shocked."

"5 fire fighters in uniform walk up to me talking about can they inspect the location of the fire outbreak?? We needed you at 10pm last night you didn’t show up, we fought to contain the situation and you want to inspect what exactly??? This country is pure cruise."

"Then they ask to come back to teach the household how to use a fire extinguisher, between the shock I’m feeling, the anger and tiredness, I’m not sure how to feel about my country Nigeria."

Born 3 November 1984, Toke Makinwa is a Nigerian radio personality, television host, vlogger, lifestyle entrepreneur, and author.

She is known for hosting The Morning Drive on Rhythm 93.7 FM and for her YouTube vlog series Toke Moments. 

March 24, 2021 Marvel’s ‘Black Widow’ to Debut on Disney+ and Cinemas Simultaneously

Marvel’s ‘Black Widow’ to Debut on Disney+ and Cinemas Simultaneously

In its biggest shift to streaming yet, Disney is releasing a film from Marvel on Disney+ at the same time it is released in cinemas.

‘Black Widow,’ the latest film from Disney’s superhero studio, will debut simultaneously in cinemas and on the company’s streaming service on July 9.

The film will be released via the company’s Premier Access function, which means Disney+ subscribers will have to pay an extra fee of $29.99 to watch it.

The highly anticipated superhero film starring Scarlett Johansson was originally slated for release on May 1, 2020, but was delayed because of the coronavirus pandemic disrupting the theater industry.

WarnerMedia, CNN’s parent company, previously announced that it would simultaneously release all Warner Bros. movies on HBO Max this year without charging an additional fee to subscribers.

But Marvel is the biggest blockbuster studio in Hollywood, and Disney is experimenting with an alternate distribution strategy during the pandemic.

In addition to ‘Black Widow,’ Disney will launch the Emma Stone-starring “Cruella” in theaters and on Disney+ via Premier Access on Friday, May 28.

Disney and Pixar’s ‘Luca,’ meanwhile, will stream directly in homes on Disney+ beginning Friday, June 18, similar to how ‘Soul’ was released without any additional charge.

Wizkid’s ‘Made in Lagos’ Spends 19th Week on Billboard World Albums Chart

Wizkid’s ‘Made in Lagos’ album has spent a record-extending 19th week on the Billboard World Albums Chart.

The album, released in October last year, retained its place on the thirteenth spot for a second week, making it the longest charting African album this decade.  It is also currently the only album by an African artist on the chart.

‘Made in Lagos’ peaked at No.2 back in November last year and has hovered around the top 20 since. A month after its release, Starboy’s fourth album became the longest charting album by an African act on the continent on the Top 20 of Worldwide Apple Music and tied Burna Boy’s ‘Twice As Tall’ as the Nigerian albums with the most weeks spent on the UK Album Charts this decade. 

Both artists won awards at the 2021 Grammys, with Wizkid sharing a gong for Best Music Video with Beyonce, and Burna Boy taking home the award for Best Global Music Album.
