Vanguard News reports that a TikTok clip showing Tiwa Savage hosting U.S. streamer IShowSpeed in Lagos has gone viral, drawing millions of views in under a day. The item notes that Speed—who has amassed a massive subscriber base—has been touring Nigeria and publicly praised Nigerian Jollof rice during the trip.
Vanguard adds that the meet‑up was arranged in part for Tiwa’s son, Jamil, and Daily Post Nigeria is cited as reporting Speed marked his 21st birthday in Nigeria with heavy fan turnout.
**Echotitbits take:** This is cross‑continental branding done right. Tiwa’s “cool mom” framing keeps her culturally sticky with Gen‑Z audiences, while Speed’s Nigeria content reinforces the country as a primary hub for viral tourism and creator‑driven travel.
