  • Switch Up Your Travel Plans, Visit Sierra Leone

    When planning a vacation, no one ever really thinks of Sierra Leone as a holiday destination. But I’d like to change that.

    Sierra Leone is a small country with a population of about 7 million people. It is famous for “blood diamonds” that were mined and sold during a civil war in order to purchase armaments. Fascinating, right?

    There are also many cool attractions that would leave you in awe of the country’s beauty. Here’s a list of things to do while in Swit Salone:

    Experience Nature & Wildlife at the Tacugama Chimpanzee Sanctuary

    Let your inner History buff out at Sierra Leone National Museum

    Take a dip in the ocean at River Number Two Beach

    Stock up on some Salone souvenirs at Big Market

    Be plunged into the world of bomb rice at Crown Express

    Unwind after a day of exploring at The Warehouse

    The Jollof Road squad was in Sierra Leone for a few days. Find out what they got up to here.

  • 7 Reasons Why Oxlade Should Rewrite Our National Anthem

    First, it’s the 21st century

    We have a lovely anthem, but please, it’s almost 50 years old. This is the 21st century; we need to keep up with the times. And frankly, an Afrobeats anthem is what the nation needs at this time.

    Have you heard his voice?

    His voice is so good, we need to immortalise it by using it to remake our anthem.

    His lyrics are fire

    With a little Afrobeats and Oxlade touch, you can  put the national anthem to better use to ask your partner out. Imagine picking someone up with “My compatriots don dey rise for you”. You’ll get married that night.

    You can show your patriotism in the club

    Imagine your national anthem being such a bop that it can make the energy go up in the club. You’ll be singing “the labour of our heroes past” while getting turnt with a bottle of Azul in hand.

    It might have a shot at a Grammy

    Nigerian music is stealing awards everywhere. Who’s to say we won’t win a Grammy if Oxlade rewrites this anthem for us? Think about the bragging rights we’ll have.

    Nigeria would probably make more money

    Don’t you want Ku Lo Sa-level streams for Nigeria? Imagine all the streaming money that’ll roll into our economy once he rewrites the national anthem. Nigeria could the use extra revenue right now, and if it means it’ll have to have a national music career, why not?

    He’s already repping Nigeria anyway

    He showed up for a show in Sierra Leone, and the whole place erupted like he was the president. Give this man an ambassadorship already.
