This special performance is coming off the release of his new single, Jah Guide Me and we are looking forward to seeing the award-winning multi-platinum ‘Afro & B’ artist perform the new song, for the very first time.
As a seasoned live performer, Darey has shared the stage with other superstars like Beyoncé, Wizkid, Jay Z, Ciara, Cardi B, Burna Boy, Sean Paul, Usher, R Kelly, Akon, Lionel Richie and many more and we can’t wait to see him perform alongside the amazing acts at the Harlem Week Musical Festival, today.

Nigeria’s GDP slumps as expected
Nigeria’s Q2 GDP performance was released this morning, with GDP down 6.10% year-on-year and non-oil GDP down 6.05% y/y. This was not a surprise (although one forecast poll predicted a 4.05% decline), given that in June the World Bank forecast a 3.2% contraction and the IMF forecast a 5.4% contraction for full-year 2020, suggesting that some poor quarters lay ahead.
Bond Yields Push Higher As GDP Weakens By 6.10% YoY
The FGN bonds market opened the week to the news of negative growth for Nigeria’s GDP (-6.10% YoY). This compounded an already weak market, still reeling from the previous week’s primary auction. We noted offers across the benchmark curve all session, but with no matching bids as investors continue to sit on the sidelines. Even offers at the long-end at 10.00% levels were not seen as enticing enough to bring client demand. Consequently, yields expanded by c.25bps on the average across the bond curve.
