In a historic milestone, Afrobeats sensation Davido has made a groundbreaking achievement on Nigeria’s premier music chart, becoming the first artist to secure a number 1 song in Nigeria for six consecutive years.

The song, part of his recently released fifth studio album 5ive, now stands as Davido’s 11th No. 1 hit on the TurnTable Top 100, with his first chart-topping track being the massive “FEM” in 2020.
