    Impulsive Decisions, Great Stories ft Ajibola Grey

    We’re joined by Ajibola Grey — lawyer, caterer, and social media influencer (yes, all three) — for an engaging conversation that jumps across culture, life choices, and personal growth. We get into the ongoing Wizkid vs Fela conversation, unpack how making impulse decisions has shaped major parts of his life, and dive into his journey of quitting smoking — the discipline, mindset shift, and lessons that came with it. It’s honest, entertaining, and surprisingly reflective — a conversation about choices, growth, and becoming more intentional with life.

We unpack why so many couples choose to leave Nigeria together, the pressures that come with starting over abroad, and how cultural shifts, financial stress, and changing dynamics can strain relationships. From the expectations people carry into “Japa life” to the hard truths behind why some marriages don’t survive the move, this episode goes beyond the glossy version of relocation. Honest, thought-provoking, and necessary, it’s a conversation for anyone considering leaving Nigeria with a partner, or trying to make love and marriage work in a new country. First episode of the year, and we’re back with another banger!

    The Business of Hype FT MIA

    Please subscribe, watch, comment and like on YouTube - https://youtu.be/aIyHksj5k-0?si=YpBf2_BuB06iCOTy On this episode of So Nigerian, we sit down with Melody MIA, radio host, hype woman, and one of the most electric voices in Nigeria’s live entertainment scene, for an honest and inspiring conversation about carving out space as a woman in a male-dominated industry. From commanding crowds on stage to holding her own behind the mic, Melody opens up about the journey that shaped her confidence, her voice, and her brand. We talk about how she found her calling in hosting and hyping, the realities people don’t see behind the energy, and the misconceptions that often follow women in entertainment. Melody shares moments where being a woman worked in her favour, times when it didn’t, and how she learned to set boundaries, earn respect, and stay unapologetically herself in spaces that don’t always make room for women. This episode is a candid exploration of confidence, resilience, and self-belief, packed with real-life stories, industry insights, and lessons for anyone trying to find their footing, especially women navigating industries where they’re often the minority. Whether you’re in entertainment, media, or just figuring out how to own your voice, this conversation will resonate deeply.

Together, we unpack the madness that is bachelor life in Lagos: the blessings, the curses, and the pure premium gbas gbos that come with it. From ideal (but realistic!) Lagos dates, awkward run-ins with people you’ve ghosted, and the art of spotting the friendzone before it embarrasses you. Edgar also shares some of his funniest stories, unfiltered takes, and why he thinks so many people are struggling to find love in this city. We also revisit one of our most talked-about topics: “Is cheating ever a mistake?”, and Edgar definitely did not hold back.
