Sensational Female Afrobeat artiste, Tiwa Savage has asserted that the poverty is a significant factor contributing to the large number of successful entertainers emerging from Nigeria.
Tiwa noted that the challenging conditions in the country are prompting young individuals to tap into their creative abilities.
During her appearance on the ‘Shopping The Sneakers’ podcast, Savage expressed that life in Nigeria presents considerable difficulties.
She said, “When you come to Nigeria, you will understand why we breed so many superstars. To survive in Nigeria is something else so that’s why the artists that come out of Nigeria are just like hustlers. They are just hustling.”
AFRIPOST gathered that Nigeria has Africa’s largest movie, music, comedy and fashion industries. Infact, Nollywood is the second largest movie industry in the world.
