The top 10 videos (excluding from major music labels) most viewed by Nigerians this year include comedy skits by Mark Angel, coming in 3rd and 8th position, as well as political concerns with the return of President Buhari from his medical trip to the United Kingdom and the Biafra protests coming in at 2nd and 4th position.



A look at the music videos most watched in Nigeria, shows how Nigerians have embraced indigenous music but not without a few foreign favorites. Songs like Davido’s ‘If’ and ‘Fall’ and DJ Khaled’s ‘Wild Thoughts’ with Rihanna and ‘I'm the One’ took top spot.

Globally, the most watched video with 181,958,411 views was Thai love song ‘As Long As We Will Become The Dust’ by Oyster Masked. The melody and beautiful meaning of the song makes it one of the performances that captured the world's attention in 2017.



In the category of the most watched music video globally, Nigerians joined the rest of the world in their love for Latino music as ‘Despacito’ by Luis Fonsi featuring Daddy Yankee tops the category, followed by Ed Sheeran who dominated both the music and non music video category.

I proposed to my girlfriend this October and coincidentally she is pregnant, so double celebration. We been talking since Feb 2016 but started dating Jan. 2017. My friends knew that I have been interested in the girl but never knew I was serious so they did not tell me her story.
After the proposal, my friend told me that my fiancee during her internship in his company was sleeping with another of my friend who is married in different hotels after close of work or at any chance they got.I heard so much more but I will keep it simple. I confronted my fiancee which she denied vehemently at first till I wanted to make a conference call with all the parties involved then she confessed. I was broken. She begged for days blaming it on bad friends, till I forgave her because she is pregnant but I cannot forget. I am cold towards her and no love again in my heart though I still provide for her.
The issue I need advice on now: since I got to know about her, nothing has been working. I feel cursed. I talked to my mum and sister. They asked me if I have ever slept with a married woman - NO of course. Then they asked if my fiancee has ever slept with a married man - YES. My mum swore never to have anything to do with her. My family disassociated themselves. My heart fails me anytime I want to tell her. I am someone that can take a fall for another. I have prayed and fasted for 2 weeks for God's blessings and forgiveness for me and her.

Mark angel comedy show? My sense of humor is dead when it comes to their skits. Can't imagine myself going as far as watching them on YouTube

One corner nko

Views!

Will it rewind my data back? who rewind epp?
