On September 4, the usually busy Montparnasse district of Paris became the scene of a crime thriller that almost played out in real life. Paris police officers from the elite Search & Intervention Brigade intercepted three men who had planned to abduct Nigerian fashion entrepreneur and influencer Kika Osunde in broad daylight.

The suspects, disguised as deliverymen, were said to have tracked her movements through her highly visible social media presence. Their plan was to seize her just as she continued to settle into her new life in the French capital.
Kika Osunde—popularly known as Kika GoodHair has built a powerful brand across in Africa and Europe. She co-founded Good Hair Ltd., a luxury hair company, and also runs the Lagos restaurant Brass & Copper.

Beyond business, she has a strong online presence, sharing her lifestyle, travels, and fashion moments with hundreds of thousands of fans across Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok.

Her glamorous visibility, however, appears to have caught the wrong kind of attention. According to international reports, the men arrested were closely monitoring her posts to determine her location before attempting the stopped abduction.

The Paris prosecutor’s office has since opened an investigation, stating the seriousness of the case. authorities are examining the possibility that a larger network was involved in the plot.
For Nigerians, the story feels relatable beyond the drama of an attempted kidnap abroad. Kika Osunde is one of many Nigerians who have taken their creativity and business to the global stage, carrying with them the double burden of fame and risk. Her near-miss in Paris raises an eye-opening conversation about digital exposure, safety, and the unseen dangers that sometimes follow public figures.

For now, the quick action of French authorities has stopped what could have been a tragic event. And for all of us watching the story unfold it is both a relief and a reminder: in an age where visibility equals influence, it also demands caution.

Lagos nightlife got a fresh dose of star power this week when Afrobeats heavyweight Wizkid and his longtime partner, Jada Pollock, made a rare and stylish public appearance. The pair arrived hand in hand at one of the city’s hottest venues, immediately becoming the center of attention.

Jada kept things simple yet striking in a breezy white shirt dress paired with strappy heels, while Wizkid leaned into his trademark cool with a bold red plaid shirt, relaxed denim, and chunky sneakers. Together, they looked relaxed, confident, and perfectly in sync, a couple that knew they did not need to overdo it to make the room theirs.

For fans, the sighting carried extra weight. Their outing follows months of speculation about the state of their relationship, sparked earlier this year by the much-talked-about Instagram unfollow episode. Their appearance sent a clear message: they remain together, and the chemistry is still strong.

Their story has always fascinated fans. From their first encounter in 2012 during Chris Brown’s Lagos tour to raising two children together, Wizkid and Jada have built more than just a romance. They have forged a partnership that blends music, business, and family. Jada, who manages Wizkid’s career, has been central to his global success, ensuring that hits like Essence became international anthems, while Wizkid has continued to define the sound of a generation.

It has been a packed year for both. Wizkid’s documentary Wizkid: Long Live Lagos has drawn critical praise, while Jada has balanced her management role with motherhood. The Lagos night out looked like a well-earned breather, a chance to celebrate, reconnect, and remind fans that sometimes, love and partnership can shine as brightly as the music itself.

What comes next? More public appearances, new music, or perhaps another family milestone? Whatever the case, one thing is certain: when Wizkid and Jada step out, Lagos takes notice.
