Nigerian content creator and streamer, Carter Efe, says Afrobeats star, Davido, helped him make the biggest amount of money he has made in his life through a livestream.

Carter made the disclosure in a recent episode of the Cocktails & Takeaways podcast, where he spoke about his streaming career, his relationship with Davido and the growth of digital content creation in Nigeria.

He said Davido’s participation in one of his livestreams attracted a large audience and significantly increased his earnings.

”Davido made me the biggest money of my life on a stream in one night. I became a big boy overnight,” he said.

Carter’s comments highlight the growing financial opportunities available to Nigerian content creators through livestreaming, digital platforms and collaborations with established entertainment personalities.

In December 2025, Davido joined Carter during a Twitch livestream which reportedly attracted more than 80,000 concurrent viewers.

The appearance also reportedly contributed to a significant increase in Carter’s followers and subscribers on the platform.

Carter Efe, whose real name is Oderhohwo Efe, gained prominence through comedy and music before expanding into livestreaming and online entertainment.

The growth of Nigeria’s digital creator economy has provided youths with alternative avenues for income, entrepreneurship and employment, while also creating opportunities to showcase Nigerian talent and culture to global audiences.

The development has further strengthened the role of social media and digital platforms in Nigeria’s entertainment industry, enabling creators to monetise their audiences and collaborate with established artists and brands.

Olaide Olabanji, a veteran Nollywood filmmaker and founder of LAIBAN movie production, has lamented the poor purchasing power of Nigeria’s highest currency note, N1,000.

DAILY POST reports that N1,000 note was introduced on October 12, 2005 during President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration.

In 2005, the US Dollar to Naira official exchange rate was N132.

At that time, the N1,000 note was worth over $7.

Today, according to a report by Quartus Economics, N1,000 has lost over 94% of its purchasing power since its introduction.

Lamenting the situation in an Instagram video on Wednesday, Olaide Olabanji, who is a known critic of bad governance, lamented that something is wrong with Nigeria.

Expressing sadness over Nigeria’s worsening economy, he said, “Your highest money N1,000 cannot buy 1kg of gas. Your highest currency cannot buy you one liter of petrol. Something is definitely wrong with Nigeria. So sad.”

Former reality TV star-turned-streamer, Phyna, has predicted that the emerging streaming industry in Nigeria will collapse soon.

Speaking during a recent livestream with Jeffrey Benson, Phyna claimed that Nigeria’s streaming boom won’t last because Nigerians patronise streamers, who “clip farm” and thrive on virality rather than solid niches and impact.

She said the situation has made a lot of streamers resort to pulling stunts and lying just to go viral and get streams.

She explained that she was also “crazy” when she started but decided to tone it down because she couldn’t keep up with the energy of her male counterparts.

“Streaming in Nigeria will soon collapse because Nigerians push streamers that clip farm, go crazy and tell lies just to entertain streams. I was crazy when I started but I decided to chill because I am a lady and I can’t keep up with that,” Phyna said.

The streamer urged her colleagues to create meaningful contents rather than chasing clout.

The invisible voice in the Big Brother Naija reality show house, Biggie, also known as Big Brother, has sent Flora on a gambit mission.

Speaking with Flora on Wednesday, Big Brother told her to do everything to make Aikou fall in love with her.

Big Brother said: “You must make Aikou believe that your feelings are real. Find the right moment to get closer to him.

“Show your interest and build enough of a connection to make him believe that you are developing romantic feelings for him.

“Remember, you must not reveal that this is a gambit mission. Aikou must believe that your feelings are real. You must complete this mission by the end of the week,” he said.

Flora replied: “Big Brother, Aikou is somehow the wrong person. I don’t know how he’s going to take it. I believe he’s going to spread it to the whole house that I’m talking to him, that I like him. But it’s a game, I will give it a try.”

Big Brother responded: “If he tells the house, he will say it with pride. After all, you’re a beautiful wolf.”

This came a few minutes after Big Brother also instructed Aikou to convince Flora that his feelings for her are real.

DAILY POST reports that Aikou and Flora are Big Brother’s secret agents called ‘gambits’ in the BBNaija Season 11 house.

Popular DJ, entrepreneur and ex-BBNaija star, Tolanibaj, has broken down in tears after alleging that a former employee stole DJ equipment worth millions of naira from her academy and is currently on the run.

Tolanibaj said she employed Precious Akiyemi Deborah as an executive assistant in April and later entrusted her with over ₦6 million to purchase four DJ controllers for the academy.

She alleged that weeks later, she discovered that three of the controllers had been removed from the academy. When questioned, Precious reportedly claimed she had taken them home because they were faulty.

Tolanibaj said she subsequently fired her and sent members of staff to retrieve the equipment from her residence, only for them to reportedly find nobody there.

The DJ further alleged that she later discovered that Precious had attempted to sell the controllers and had also contacted another DJ about renting similar equipment.

Tolanibaj said the matter was reported to the police, leading to the arrest of two people who allegedly purchased the controllers, while one of the stolen controllers has since been recovered.

She alleged that Precious is currently wanted by the police and appealed to anyone with information about her whereabouts to contact her.

Visibly emotional while recounting the incident, Tolanibaj also advised business owners to put stronger structures and accountability measures in place to protect their businesses and assets.

Former BBNaija star Ike Onyema has weighed in on the ongoing controversy involving photographer David Martins, his estranged wife, Alicia Daniella, and gospel singer Neon Adejo, warning against what he described as a betrayal of trust.

Although Ike did not mention Neon by name, he appeared to criticise the gospel singer for allegedly crossing boundaries by paying for a married woman’s Airbnb and later requesting photos from her.

Questioning the character of a man who would act in such a manner, Ike urged friends, family members and business associates to pay close attention to the actions of those around them, stressing that trust should never be taken for granted.

In a separate post, Ike also reacted to claims that Neon became involved after believing God had revealed to him that Alicia was unhappy in her marriage.

The reality star cautioned against using religion as a justification for crossing personal boundaries, arguing that faith should not be used to present questionable intentions as righteous actions.

His comments come as public debate surrounding the David Martins-Alicia Daniella-Neon Adejo saga continues to generate reactions across social media.

Yinka said, “I will never forget the last time I saw you at the hospital. You were lying on your sick bed, and when I saw you, I could not hold back my tears. You looked at me and said, ‘Yinka, don’t cry. Nothing bad will happen to me.’ And I responded, ‘Yes, Amen.’

“A few minutes later, you asked me to give you the bottle of water on the table. I gave it to you, and you drank from it. Then you looked at me and said, ‘Yinka, can you see that I drank the water, even though I ate this morning?’ You asked the doctors to confirm whether it was true that you had eaten that morning, and they confirmed it.

“At that moment, I said ‘glory be to God’. My hope and faith became even stronger. But the doctors only advised us to remain prayerful.”
