It is the first and only standard music chart in Nigeria, providing comprehensive music activity including the official No. 1 song in Nigeria

“Asiwaju” logs a fourth week at No. 1 on Official Nigeria Top 100 after tallying 3.22 million streams and 69.6 million in radio reach during the week of December 30 – January 5, 2022.
