Notable songstress, Efya dismisses comparisons between the Ghanaian and Nigerian music industries, asserting that Lagos is “bigger” than Ghana. Efya emphasized that Nigeria’s larger population gives its music industry an edge over the Ghanaian market. She made this known in a recent interview with City 105.1 FM, Lagos.
She argued against drawing direct comparisons between the two West African countries, suggesting instead that they should focus on collaboration. In her words; “Nigerian and Ghanaian music markets are not the same. Nigerians are way more than we are in terms of numbers. Numbers really matter now. The number of people that will stream Nigerian music in Nigeria is different from the number of people that will stream Ghanaian music in Ghana. The numbers are not the same. “In the capacity of numbers, Lagos is bigger than Ghana. It is like the music hub itself. Nigerians are way bigger than we are. So, usually when I see people comparing, I’m like, ‘Do you guys know?’ “There shouldn’t be any comparisons. What I believe that we should is that we should be more collaborative. Find our vibes and put them together to advance what Afrobeats is going to be in the future; for us to be the gatekeepers of our own sound. And I think that’s the power move.”
Liverpool coach, Jurgen Klopp has seemingly settled for Europa League after a 1-1 draw with Aston Villa yesterday, May 20. Recall that in his final home game as a Liverpool player, Firmino came off the bench to give Liverpool the equalizer they desperately needed. The Reds’ hope to qualify for Champions League is hanging by a thread as Manchester United and Newcastle both have a game in hand and need just a point in midweek to secure their spot in the top four.

The Reds have played in the Champions League for the past five seasons, reaching the final on three occasions and lifting the trophy once. Speaking to BBC after the match last night, Klopp who settled for Europa said they’ll make it their competition. 
He said; “We will make it [the Europa League] our competition. I am not that spoilt. That we are already qualified for the Europa League is incredible with all these teams around us. That’s really difficult and we did it, that is good. “For so long we couldn’t even hear the sound of the Champions League, that’s how far away we were. The Europe League is absolutely fine. Let’s see what we can do.”
