    In a report by Punch, Nigerian influencer Anda Damisa (popularly known as LazyWrita) was reported dead after an announcement surfaced via his Instagram account.

    The news spread rapidly across social media, with fans and peers sharing tributes, while mainstream outlets treated details around circumstances cautiously.

    As always with death reports online, the responsible focus is confirmation, respect for family privacy, and avoiding speculation.

    Verification

    • People (Website): “announced his death in an Instagram post…”
    • LazyWrita (Instagram): “I lived a full and adventurous life.”

    Echotitbits take: The creator economy’s visibility can hide real vulnerability. Watch for verified updates from family or representatives and for any credible clarification from authorities—until then, steer clear of rumor-driven “explanations.”

    As reported by The Guardian Nigeria, Kayzplace Barbershop reopened in Surulere after a fire-related shutdown, drawing celebrities, loyal clients and community leaders for a visible show of support.

    The reopening was framed as both a business restart and a morale moment—proof the brand survived the disruption and is pushing forward.

    For many Lagos lifestyle businesses, December visibility can directly impact survival, making celebrity support more than just optics.

    The Guardian quoted the owner: “Of course, it was necessary. This is my business… so I had to take the necessary steps to bring it back,” he said. A Kayzplace Instagram update stated the brand is “committed to rebuilding and emerging stronger.”

    Echotitbits take:
    This is a case study in community-backed recovery. Watch whether the reopening translates to sustained customer traffic—and whether the brand secures partnerships that turn a comeback story into long-term growth.

    According to BellaNaija, ‘Party With Olori-Ebi 2.0’ served as an early Detty December signal in Lagos, pulling a mix of music names, influencers and nightlife regulars into one loud, fashion-forward night.

    The event’s highlight reels leaned heavily into red-carpet styling, performance energy and the “who’s who” factor that tends to drive weekend chatter on Instagram.

    The Punch reported the party “brought together… Mayorkun, Skales… and Jaypaul,” framing it as a crowd-heavy cultural moment.

    Tomike Adeoye shared: “Highlights from Party with Olori Ebi 2.0…” as clips and photos circulated online.

    Analysis/Echotitbits take: Lagos’ December calendar is increasingly content-driven—parties double as media products. Watch for sponsorships and branded experiences to intensify as influencers and artists compete for the most viral “Detty December” moments.
