The Tour, which hit its 4th city on November 9, 2025, has recorded over 80,000 attendees so far.

Davido kicked off the 5ive tour earlier in 2025, commemorating the release of his 5th studio album, 5ive, with a world tour that covered numerous cities across the globe. The 5ive tour, a massive success since its launch, took over global headlines on October 14, 2025, when Davido announced that he would be bringing the tour back home to Nigeria where it all started, collaborating with none other than his longtime financial partner and banking family, Wema Bank.

Unsurprisingly, Wema Bank rose to the occasion in grand style, dominating the Nigerian leg of the 5ive tour across 4 locations so far: Uyo, Yola, Enugu, and most recently, Ibadan. These 4 locations have covered all 4 regions of the country, demonstrating an intentional sense of diversity and inclusion. The Bank, in its usual standard of raising the bar, brought a new wave of glamour, sophistication and excitement that shook the industry, resulting in what has become the biggest studio tour in Africa, brought to you by Wema Bank.

From providing its customers with exclusive access to experience the tour as regular or VIP guests to giving out high-quality trendy Davido 5ive tour merch that every Nigerian couldn’t wait to rock with pride, Wema Bank took the nation by storm as major sponsor of the 5ive Tour. With commendation and kudos trooping in from Nigerians across the globe, Wema Bank has undoubtedly won the hearts of millions, cementing its reputation as the innovative youth-centric bank that remains in touch with the needs and lifestyles of its customers.

A dynamically synergic duo, Wema Bank and Davido have executed what is arguably the biggest finance-entertainment collaboration, totally redefining what it means for banking to seamlessly integrate with lifestyle as needs continue to evolve.

All anticipation now builds up to December 14, 2025, when Wema Bank will once again take the 5ive tour to Nigerians right here in Nigeria; this time in the capital city of Abuja. Anyone interested in getting a free ticket or getting access to the highly sought after Davido 5ive Tour merch is encouraged to follow @wemabank on Instagram, X and Facebook to stay tuned as the #Wema5iveAliveTour continues to unfold.

Ogun West Has Found a Builder”: Adele Olu of Ilaro-Yewa, High Chief Abiodun Olalekan Ilo Hails Senator Yayi’s Transformational Impact… Endorses His 2027 Governorship Bid

The Adele Olu of Ilaro-Yewa, High Chief Abiodun Olalekan Ilo, has applauded the remarkable developmental strides of Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola (Yayi), representing Ogun West in the National Assembly, describing them as “unprecedented and deeply impactful.”

Speaking from his base in the United States during an online interview with Abu-Satar Hamed of StarTrend Int’l Magazine, the US-based traditional leader said he was overwhelmingly impressed by the transformation he witnessed when he returned home for the 2025 Oronna Ilaro Festival.

> “I was amazed by the people-oriented projects I saw—township roads, new classroom blocks, ICT centres, upgraded hospitals with modern equipment, police stations, and recreational facilities,” he said.

 

High Chief Ilo added that several beneficiaries of Senator Yayi’s training and empowerment programmes also testified to the senator’s life-changing interventions across Ogun West.

According to him, Senator Adeola’s performance in just over two years demonstrates that he is fully prepared for higher leadership responsibilities:

> “His achievements leave no doubt that he will deliver exceptionally as Governor of Ogun State come 2027, God willing.”

 

Although he has not yet met Senator Yayi one-on-one, High Chief Ilo described the senator as “accessible, focused, and committed to service,” noting that he looks forward to meeting him soon.

He called on the people of Ogun West and Ogun State at large to recognize the grace and capacity in Senator Adeola and unite behind his 2027 gubernatorial ambition.

High Chief Ilo also disclosed that he, his wife, and other patriotic Ogun indigenes in the diaspora are already mobilizing support—encouraging citizens abroad to return home to vote and actively promote Yayi’s candidacy ahead of the 2025 political season.

In closing, he urged residents to stay vigilant and prioritize community safety by promptly reporting suspicious activities to the appropriate authorities.

South-East’s Return to Peace Should Not Be Jeopardised, Analyst Warns

South-East’s Return to Peace Should Not Be Jeopardised, Analyst Warns

A public affairs commentator, Fredrick Nwabufor, has cautioned against what he describes as the “romanticising of criminality” in discussions around security in Nigeria’s South-East, warning that the region’s fragile peace must not be jeopardised by revisiting past threats.
According to the analyst, the South-East only recently emerged from a period marked by widespread violence in which both civilians and security operatives were routinely attacked by members of a proscribed separatist group. “Every family has a tale of blood, pain, and loss,” he said, recalling the reign of terror that gripped the region just a few years ago.
He argued that attempts to make political, ethnic, or sentimental excuses for individuals linked to past violence risk undermining the progress made in restoring stability. “Nations thrive on law and order. It is reductive to hang the security of the South-East on the same convict who previously unleashed bloodletting in the zone,” he noted.
The commentator observed that the region is currently experiencing renewed calm, with businesses reopening and development activities picking up after years of disruption. He warned that this progress could be reversed if the country fails to learn from history.
“The South-East is witnessing a return of peace and economic life. It would be unwise to resurrect the very forces that once destabilised the region. History teaches us the consequences of reviving Frankensteins,” he added.
The remarks were shared in response to online debates about the future of security and leadership in the South-East.
