Gospel artist, Sanctified Sylars, has revealed that his song “Oh Nigeria” aims to address the country’s issues.
Sylars stated that he composed the song in 2019 with the intention of influencing society as a patriotic citizen.
Gospel singer Sylars Akhigbe, popularly known as Sanctified Sylars, has revealed that his 2019 song “Oh Nigeria” was created to address the challenges facing the country.
Sylars said he wrote the song as a patriotic call to action, urging the Nigerian government to take all necessary steps to improve the lives of its citizens.
Recalling his musical journey, the artiste shared that he discovered his talent after learning to play the guitar and piano, eventually realizing his gift for singing.
“Everybody has different ways about how they stumbled on their career pat“I started playing the guitar. From there, I moved to piano before I discovered I could sing. And I started singing from there. Consequently, I became a music director.
“My passion is drawn from experience about life and how I see things unfold.
“My first musical project was in 2019 titled Oh Nigeria. It was basically addressing the ills of the country. I used my platform to call on the government to swing into action in addressing the ills of society,” he said.
In other news, A lion-themed cake has stirred up strong reactions across social media after a video exposed its poor design and craftsmanship.
Shared by @learncakesandbaking on Instagram, the viral clip features a misshapen, boxy cake with an awkwardly sculpted lion face — a far cry from the professionally made version it was meant to replicate. The original, made by popular baker @dripplescakes, is known for its detailed and visually stunning design.
In the post, @learncakesandbaking criticized the execution of the imitation, using the opportunity to call out a growing issue in the baking community — underwhelming cake orders that harm the reputation of skilled professionals.
“Interesting version of Mama @dripplescakes lion cake. Please don’t accept a job that you cannot execute. Or better still, accept it and collaborate with a capable hand that can execute it perfectly,” the caption read.
The video quickly attracted thousands of views and comments. While some users were amused by the botched result, others expressed frustration over declining quality in the custom cake industry. Many supported the baker’s message, urging more honesty and collaboration in the profession.
