    Wizkid’s surprise appearance at Gunna’s Lagos set turns Detty December Fest into a headline

    In a report published by BellaNaija, Wizkid made a surprise appearance during Gunna’s Detty December Fest performance, sending the crowd into instant frenzy.

    The moment is being shared as another example of Lagos’ December pipeline—global acts arriving, then colliding with Nigerian star power on stage.

    Beyond the hype, fans are already asking the practical question: was it a one-off cameo, or the start of a wider collaboration push?

    • Vanguard (Outlet): “Wizkid thrilled fans with a surprise appearance.”
    • Instagram clip share (Instagram): “Moment Wizkid joined Gunna on stage.”

    Echotitbits take: Surprise stage link-ups now function like mini marketing campaigns: the clips travel, the festival gets free press, and both artists benefit from cross‑audience exposure. Watch next for any official reposts, backstage footage, or remix chatter—those are usually the signals that a viral performance is being turned into a deliberate rollout.

    In an update published by Vanguard, Nigeria’s House of Representatives has constituted a seven-member ad hoc committee to examine allegations that gazetted tax laws differ from versions passed by lawmakers.

    The House says the issue goes to legislative integrity and public confidence, since agencies and taxpayers rely on gazetted texts for implementation and compliance.

    Committee members are expected to review records including Votes and Proceedings, harmonised versions adopted by both chambers, and the gazetted copies now in circulation.

    Premium Times reported the House was reacting to claims the gazetted laws “did not reflect what the National Assembly debated and approved.” Vanguard quoted the lawmaker who raised the issue saying, “I was here, I gave my vote and it was counted, and I am seeing something completely different.”

    Echotitbits take:
    If the committee confirms discrepancies, expect calls for corrections before full implementation to avoid litigation and compliance confusion. Watch for the committee’s report, any official certified copies, and whether timelines for rollout shift.
