Agbara Nla, also known as "Ayamatanga" , was a powerful Gospel drama released in 1992 by Mount Zion Films Ministry. The movie became extremely popular and scared many of us as children. It also brought Mount Zion Films into the limelight.Originally released in Yoruba, its massive success led to a full English version in 1994 titled "The Ultimate Power". Instead of dubbing or subtitling the original, Evangelist Mike Bamiloye and the team completely reshot the entire film from scratch to reach a wider audience across Nigeria and beyond. Did this movie scare you as a child too?

Throwback to 2009, right at the peak of the beef between Mallam Spicey and Terry G. Spicey dropped that diss track and everybody was loving it back then, even though he sampled the beat from Terry G’s “Free Madness.” Thinking about it now, it’s actually so funny 😅 How you go release a diss track on your “enemy” and still sample his entire beat plus copy the song style? Such a wild move. But I guess Terry G just decided to overlook it Did you vibe to this back then?

The New Masquerade is one of Nigeria's most iconic and longest-running television sitcoms, dominating Tuesday night airwaves on the NTA network from the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s. Created by James Iroha as a means of healing and unifying the nation after the devastating Nigerian Civil War, the show used biting satire and hilarious domestic drama to critique societal corruption and government failures. Centered around the pompous, brilliantly witty Chief Zebrudaya famous for his signature broken English and an unforgettable cast of characters like Ovularia, Chief Jegede Shokoya, Giringori, and Clarus, it became a cultural touchstone that successfully united Nigerians across different ethnic and generational lines through the universal language of laughter. Do you remember this show?
