The program, which is scheduled to premiere on October 7 across the nation, promises to be hilarious and welcoming entertainment because it features a wide variety of Nigerian families competing for cash and other prizes.

In each episode, two “families” of five will compete against one another to predict the most common answers to a set of survey questions with a distinctively Nigerian twist that were asked of 100 participants.

During the unveiling on Wednesday at the company’s head office, in Lagos, the Ag. Chief Digital Officer, MTN Nigeria, Aisha Umar-Mumuni, said, “One of the things that keep families together is shared activity, and whether it is competing on ‘Family Feud’ or watching weekly episodes, the show will give people another avenue to bond.

“It will be informative, provide comic relief and showcase the personalities of different families across generations. It will be exciting to watch.”

Femi Ayeni, Chief Executive Officer, Ultima Studios said, “Family Feud is a relaxing game show with a healthy dose of humour and laughter, which is sure to refresh and reconnect families and friends while also rewarding them as they play and win cash, and other prizes.

“The show is made even more interesting because the five participants in each family can be made up of nuclear family members, friends from work, neighbors, old boys or old girls from schools, and almost any relationship which binds us together in a community.

“The families will be able to play to win up to N5 million and ensure that every family member becomes a millionaire courtesy of our lead sponsors – MTN.”

Expressing her excitement as the show host, Bisola Aiyeola, said “I am thrilled to be hosting ‘Family Feud.’ It’s a show I have come to love, and I look forward to sharing the experience with families across Nigeria.

“The questions are hilarious and when you mix that with our unique Nigerian humour, expect non-stop laughter.

“It’s more than just asking questions. Part of the fun is revealing their unique personalities to further engage with the families.”

Subscribers may get ready for Family Feud Nigeria now and enter to win money daily in a humorous trivia challenge before the show’s October premiere.

Beginning on August 24, MTN subscribers can participate by texting DFF or WFF to 205 with their responses to the Family Feud survey questions for a chance to win money every workday, from Monday through Friday.

Each month, N10,000 will be given to the top 200 subscribers with the most points.

Starting on October 7, the program will first air on Africa Magic Family and Africa Magic Urban on DSTV and GoTV.

In 2023, the program will also be available on a number of terrestrial TV networks, with the NTA Network taking the lead.

Edo Election: ‘Go Where?’ – Davido Rejects Police Call For Voters To Leave After Voting

Published

on

Nigerian music star David Adeleke, widely known as Davido, has disagreed with the advice that voters should leave polling stations immediately after casting their ballots in the ongoing Edo State gubernatorial election.

Davido’s reaction came in response to a statement by Frank Mba, the Deputy Inspector General of Police responsible for election security.

In an interview with Channels Television on Saturday morning, Mba urged Edo residents to fulfill their civic duty and return home after voting.

He also announced a restriction on vehicular movement in the state from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. on election day. “If you’re not accredited for the election, stay off the streets. Cast your vote and go home; it’s your civic duty,” Mba said.

However, Davido, a supporter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), had a different view.

He suggested that voters should remain at the polling stations to ensure their votes are properly counted and to prevent any potential electoral misconduct.

In a tweet, he responded to Mba’s advice with a humorous yet critical tone, writing, “Loooooooool go where ???”

Davido, whose mother is from Edo State, had previously expressed his support for the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo.

On September 15, 2024, the singer posted on Instagram, endorsing Ighodalo as “the next Governor of my Mother’s Homeland @asueighodalo.”
