The Kel P-produced single became a smash hit in Nigeria and has since amassed over 103 million views on YouTube.
On March 8, 2020, Nigerian superstar, Burna Boy accepted a gold plaque for his 2018 single, ‘On The Low.’ The gold plaque is for selling 100,000 (or more) copies of the single. A gold plaque could also be handed to an artist whose single has been streamed 15 million times in the country. Thus, 15 million streams of a single in France is equivalent to 100,000 pure sales.
The singer was accompanied by his mom and manager, Bose Ogulu also known as Mama Burna. In an Instagram post to celebrate the win, Burna Boy wrote, ““On the low” went Gold in France 🇫🇷 without any radio push or promo. Love every single one of you that streamed it over 15m times, it’s still #FOOTONNECK2020.”
On The Low’ was released on November 16, 2018 as the second single off Burna Boy’s 7th studio album, African Giant. The Kel P-produced single became a smash hit in Nigeria and has since amassed over 103 million views on YouTube.
Oil prices suffered a historic collapse late Sunday after Saudi Arabia shocked the market by launching a price war against onetime ally Russia.
US oil prices crashed as much as 27% to a four-year low of $30 a barrel as traders brace for Saudi Arabia to flood the market with crude in a bid to recapture market share.
In Nigeria, there have been concerns that the ensuing oil crisis could worsen the state of the economy if the federal government does not handle the aftermath of the global challenge with a sense of urgency and responsibility.
Angry youths in Imo State are said to have attacked the convoy of the Imo state governor, Hope Uzodinma.
The attack took place in OhajiEgbema Local Government Area where Governor Uzodinma had travelled to pay a condolence visit to families of some victims who lost their lives during a truck crash there.
Police authorities in the state say some unidentified persons attacked the governor’s car while he was inside the palace of the traditional ruler of the community addressing stakeholders.
But the state government in a different statement said the governor was not attacked but some aggrieved youths who wanted him to address them on the activities of some oil companies in the area threw a stone at the governor’s official vehicle where the convoy parked and in the process smashed the back glass.
