In a recent interview, artist FAVE opened up about his memorable experience working with music superstar Davido on the hit song “KANTE.” Expressing his initial excitement and gratitude, FAVE shared how the collaboration turned into a life-changing opportunity.
“When Davido contacted me to feature on his song titled ‘KANTE,’ I was overjoyed, and we even celebrated with a party,” FAVE recalled. “I was prepared to record my verse for free, but Davido insisted on paying me whatever amount I wanted to be part of the track.”
The release of “KANTE” quickly became a sensation, but the surprises didn’t end there. FAVE was amazed when Davido reached out again with an offer to join him on tour in the UK. “He paid for everything, and I was compensated for my performances,” FAVE said. “Months later, after the show, we travelled to various countries for the video shoot.”
FAVE’s experience highlights Davido’s deep appreciation for talent and his commitment to supporting fellow artists. “Davido is someone who understands the value of talent. No matter how big he is, even if he features an upcoming artist, your life will change after that verse,” FAVE concluded.
This heartfelt reflection underscores the profound impact of genuine collaboration and support in the music industry, illustrating how one artist’s generosity can profoundly influence and elevate another’s career.
“I am still becoming. My story is still unfolding.” – Temiloluwa Adegbite
That is how Temiloluwa Adegbite, the 41st President of JCI Nigeria TASUED Chapter, describes herself—not as a finished product but as a living, learning, leading work in progress. Her journey is a reflection of strength through adversity, direction born from confusion, and leadership powered by growth, service, and vision.
Humble Beginnings and Formative Years
Born on October 24, 2004, Temiloluwa came into the world as the first child of her family—an event that changed everything for her parents. Raised with strong values of discipline and responsibility, she grew up in a home where leadership was not taught in words, but in expectations. At just three years old, she became a big sister—a role that quietly initiated her into responsibility and nurturance.
Her childhood was mobile and emotionally rich, shaped by time spent between her parents and uncle’s household. As a little girl, she discovered her love for teaching and talking. She was expressive, confident, and always ready to lead the line, both literally and figuratively. She would later describe herself as someone who wasn’t shy—just waiting for the right platform to shine.
Throughout primary school, she consistently served as class prefect, a small but telling preview of what was to come. Yet, her leadership wasn’t always comfortable. When she moved on to Model College Igbokuta for junior secondary education, life took a difficult turn. Boarding school hit hard. New environments, unfamiliar routines, cultural shifts, and harsh systems challenged her identity. But amidst it all, she learned to be independent, to speak up, and to begin owning her voice.
Trials, Transformation, and Academic Journey
Her senior secondary years at Tofek College were even more turbulent. Bullied for her spoken English, pressured to succeed in science classes that didn’t align with her strengths, and uncertain about her place, Temiloluwa entered Tofek as a version of herself the world wouldn’t recognize today. A pivotal moment came when her father demanded she switch from Science to Commercial or Humanities—a change that felt like failure but became the first step toward finding herself.
Initially, she aspired to become a pediatrician because of her love for children. But as she transitioned into the commercial department, she found unexpected confidence in accounting and business subjects. However, her world paused again in SS3 when she lost her father. Grief, confusion, and responsibility washed over her. She remembers crying when no one was watching, failing her mock exam, and growing overnight. In her words:
“I had to be strong—for my mum, for my siblings. And for myself.”
Despite everything, she graduated as Labour Prefect in 2020, holding on to the lessons her father had taught her and the quiet strength she built through pain.
A Redirection of Destiny
Post-secondary school, she aimed to study Economics Education at the University of Lagos (UNILAG). But life had other plans. Denied admission, she found herself in a season of reflection. Torn between settling and seeking purpose, she made the bold decision to reapply for a different course entirely—Guidance and Counselling.
She prayed. She trusted. And finally, in 2021—just days after her birthday—she received her admission into Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED) to study Counselling Psychology and Educational Foundations. It turned out to be one of the most pivotal decisions of her life.
Finding Her Voice Through JCI
In TASUED, the first few months were directionless. Her initial plan was to “just get the degree and leave.” But during the ASUU strike, a friend’s WhatsApp status introduced her to Junior Chamber International (JCI)—a global organization that promotes leadership, active citizenship, and personal growth.
Something clicked. She researched JCI. She resonated deeply with their commitment to impact, development, and youth empowerment. As soon as the strike was over, she attended her first meeting and never looked back.
JCI became more than an extracurricular—it became her transformation engine. She attended leadership retreats, earned certifications, improved her public speaking, and connected with like-minded changemakers. She began to gather portfolios and responsibilities, even when her vision was still forming.
Leadership Legacy and Spotlight Worthy Impact
Since then, Temiloluwa’s leadership has followed a powerful trajectory:
Director of Welfare, JCIN TASUED (2023) Vice President, JCIN TASUED (2024) President, JCIN TASUED (2025) Head of Class, GCP/SOS ‘25 Student Representative in the Legislative Arm since Year 3
As President of JCIN TASUED, she has spearheaded community projects, hosted empowering programs, judged contests, moderated panels, and mentored dozens of students. Her leadership is grounded in empathy, excellence, and elevation—ensuring every voice is heard, and every student has a chance to grow.
Her personal brand is shaped by integrity, service, and intentional growth. She isn’t just active—she’s impactful. She doesn’t just hold positions—she delivers value. She doesn’t just tell her story—she uses it to light the path for others.
Her Philosophy
Temiloluwa believes that life doesn’t always offer clarity, but it offers growth. Her journey is proof that failure, confusion, and pain are not the end—they’re chapters in becoming.
“To every young person like me: Stay consistent. It’s okay to not have it all figured out. You are who you believe you are. Let your thoughts be your engine, not other people’s opinions.”
Now, as a proud graduate of the Class of 2025, she stands not just as a product of TASUED, but as a promise of what’s possible when leadership meets authenticity.
Tall. Slim. Dark. Multi-dimensional. Dynamic. Ebony. A.K.A. Black Diamond. These aren’t just words Tehilla Michaels uses in her introduction—they’re the essence of her presence in every space she enters. With a captivating on-air voice, magnetic confidence, and an unapologetic flair for creativity, Tehilla has carved her identity as one of the most dynamic voices to emerge from Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED).
A graduate of Educational Media Technology, Tehilla made history as thefirst-ever presenter to go on air at EduTech Radio, a pioneering media platform launched by her department. From that very first broadcast to her final sign-off as a student, she held the mic with excellence, consistency, and fire—earning her the nickname: “The Radio Pulse Girl with a Voice that Shakes the Space.”
Her journey into broadcasting and content creation wasn’t born out of obligation, but out of curiosity, creativity, and a passion for storytelling. “Over the years, content creation and broadcasting have been my playground,” she shares. “I’ve always been drawn to the energy of a live event, the power of a well-crafted story, and the magic of connecting with an audience.” From volunteering at local events to refining her voice behind the mic, Tehilla’s early days were filled with experimentation, self-discovery, and the courage to step into the unknown.
Her practicum experience at Super FM 93.5 Radio further solidified her professional foundation. There, she evolved from a passionate student into a budding media personality, honing her broadcast skills and growing into a confident communicator whose words could move a crowd, stir thought, and spark laughter—all in one segment.
But Tehilla is more than a presenter. She is also an artist, songwriter, and vocalist. Her debut track, titled “Solo,” marks her official foray into music a personal journey that reflects her lyrical depth and emotional expression. Though not yet released on streaming platforms at the time of this writing, Solo is just the beginning. With a catalogue of written songs, Tehilla continues to explore the power of her voice—not just in spoken word, but in melody.
When asked how she views herself, Tehilla said:
“When I look in the mirror or watch my content, I see someone who is intentional about every page of her life—constantly evolving into the woman she’s always dreamt of becoming. A work in progress, always striving for growth. The fire in my eyes signifies determination that clearly engraves ‘I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere.’”
Tehilla embraces vulnerability. She proudly shares her light with the world and is never afraid to show her true self. She is passionate about life, with a zest for adventure and a deep curiosity that drives her to learn, grow, and create. She finds joy in the small things and constantly seeks to make a positive impact on the world around her.
Though her success appears seamless, her journey was not without its moments of uncertainty. She admits there was a time she approached her creative work playfully, uncertain about where it would lead. Some people supported her vision immediately, while others questioned it. But it was this mix of doubt and belief that fueled her drive. “I kept doing what I was doing, hoping for light at the end of the tunnel,” she says. That light came and it continues to shine brighter.
Her dreams are as bold as her voice. In the next five years, Tehilla envisions herself as a renowned broadcaster, hosting a successful show—be it on radio, television, or a digital platform where she can engage wide audiences, share inspiring stories, and spark meaningful conversations. She aims to mentor aspiring broadcasters, use her voice as a tool for advocacy, and become a beacon of truth, connection, and creativity in the media industry.
Her passion for communication is rooted in childhood. Growing up in a supportive home, storytelling and conversation were part of her everyday life. “I was always a curious child, always eager to learn and discover,” she says. That foundation taught her not only to connect with others, but also to craft powerful narratives that move hearts and inspire minds.
Tehilla’s legacy at TASUED extends far beyond her department. She is a role model, a creative force, and a proud ambassador of what it means to live intentionally and walk boldly in your gift.
“I want to use my platform to amplify voices, tell inspiring stories, and drive positive change in society. I want to leave a lasting impact on the world around me.”
This is Tehilla Michaels—broadcaster, artist, storyteller, changemaker. She doesn’t just speak into the mic. She speaks into hearts. With elegance, depth, and a voice that both entertains and empowers, Tehilla Michaels isn’t just a broadcaster—she’s a movement. From radio waves to real-world impact, her spotlight is just beginning to shine.
There’s a silent revolution happening in Nigeria’s event scene—and its name is TicketPass.
From campus concerts to city-wide raves, TicketPass is quickly becoming the trusted name for digital event access across Ogun and Lagos States. What started as a smart alternative to paper tickets is now redefining how event lovers attend and enjoy experiences, from the first click to the final applause.
Whether it’s the packed-out Splash Party in Ijebu Ode, a club night in Lagos Mainland, or the recently hyped Ojude Oba preview events, TicketPass has proven one thing: modern ticketing doesn’t need to be complicated—it just needs to work.
“We’re not just selling tickets,” said Toyosola Amuludun, founder of TicketPass and a media entrepreneur known within TASUED circles. “We’re building a full event experience powered by tech—smooth check-ins, real-time scanning, secure access, and even post-event insights for organizers.”
For many in the South-West, especially students and creatives, this is a welcome shift. No more gate-side drama, fake wristbands, or last-minute hustles. With QR codes and NFC tags, guests now enjoy the confidence of scan-and-enter.TicketPass is not just offering tickets; it is introducing a range of smart services, including on-site ticket scanning, NFC-enabled wristbands, vendor access registration, and even hotel booking (set to launch later this year). These innovations are helping event planners enhance security, mitigate fraud, and collect real-time data on attendees—something rarely seen in the current event industry.
Local event promoters in Ogun State and Lagos State have started adopting the platform, citing its reliability, modern feel, and ease of use. Many believe TicketPass could be the game-changer the Nigerian events industry has been waiting for.
In July, the company plans to roll out its Organiser Portal, a self-service dashboard for planning, selling, and managing event access. It also intends to launch a Brand Ambassador Program in August, targeting youth and influencers who want to champion a smarter event culture.
Looking ahead, TicketPass has its sights set beyond the Southwest.
“In a few years, we plan to expand into other parts of Nigeria and extend our services to African countries,” Amuludun added. “The goal is to build a pan-African ticketing solution that is both efficient and culturally relevant.”
As the region begins to embrace a more digitised entertainment experience, TicketPass stands at the forefront, championing access, ease, and a new era of event culture. For many in the South-West, especially students and creatives, this is a welcome shift. No more gate-side drama, fake wristbands, or last-minute hustles. With QR codes and NFC tags, guests now enjoy the confidence of scan-and-enter.

At just 11 years old, Kuku Hamidah Anjolaoluwa rode her way into the hearts of thousands at Ojude Oba 2025, earning recognition as the youngest female horse rider in this year’s grand cultural parade.
Representing the prestigious Kuku Royal Family, Hamidah made a stunning return for her second official appearance at the annual celebration — and this year, she delivered a performance that wowed the crowd and drew admiration from all corners of the festival ground.
Hamidah began horse riding at the tender age of 6, trained diligently by her father, a seasoned horseman and cultural custodian who saw not just potential in his daughter, but purpose. She had appeared alongside him for years, quietly learning the ropes and earning respect behind the scenes.
But it was in 2024 that everything changed.
That year, Hamidah stepped into the spotlight solo, commanding attention with a rare blend of poise, confidence, and elegance that stunned even the elders. Her performance instantly made her a standout — and the first youngest female rider to ever shine in the historic parade.
“Ojude Oba is more than a festival to me. It’s a celebration of our heritage and unity,” Hamidah shared. “Riding symbolises strength and courage. It reminds me that being a young woman doesn’t limit me — I ride to represent tradition and progress.”
In a heartwarming twist, her 2025 appearance came with extra meaning: Hamidah was joined by her 6-year-old younger brother, marking his debut ride and adding another layer of legacy and family pride to the moment.
“Before the festival, I remind myself who I am, who I represent, and why I ride,” she said.
Her father, proud and emotional, added:
“This isn’t just about riding horses. It’s about raising children who understand the richness of where they come from and are proud to represent it.”
The crowd’s reaction said it all: cheers, applause, and phones lifted in the air, capturing the moment a young girl, trained by her father, rode with the spirit of royalty and inspired a new generation.
Kuku Hamidah’s story is more than just a festival highlight. It’s a powerful reminder that the future of tradition is already in motion — galloping forward with pride, purpose, and possibility.
In a heartfelt move that blends fashion with impact, Oluwaseun Kuforiji, the Guinness World Record holder and creative director of Koil Creation, officially launched the Koil Foundation today — a nonprofit platform focused on transforming lives, empowering creativity, and building stronger communities through fashion.
The launch, which took place to great excitement in Ijebu-Ode, Ogun State, marks a new chapter in Koil’s inspiring journey — from a fashion designer to a cultural icon and now, a social changemaker.
Koil, who made global headlines after sewing continuously for over 106 hours to set a new Guinness World Record, has shifted gears from personal success to communal impact with the unveiling of the foundation during a special press conference in Ijebu Ode, Ogun State.
PURPOSE-DRIVEN INITIATIVE
The Koil Foundation is built around a clear mission: To empower, uplift, and restore dignity to children in underserved communities through fashion and creative empowerment.
According to the founder, the initiative is rooted in three core goals:
Transforming Lives – Providing children with stylish, well-fitted clothing that boosts self-esteem and identity.
Creative Empowerment – Nurturing self-expression by introducing kids to creativity through fashion.
Community Impact – Strengthening communities by helping children discover their potential and feel valued.
“We’re not just giving clothes; we are giving children a reason to stand tall, dream big, and believe in themselves,” Koil shared while addressing journalists and supporters.
FIRST PROJECT: #CLOTHACHILD CAMPAIGN
As part of the launch, Koil also announced the foundation’s first major humanitarian project: #ClothAChild — a bold initiative to distribute 5,000 pieces of school uniforms and clothing to primary school pupils in public schools across Ogun State.
The project, according to Koil, is the beginning of a larger journey to break the cycle of neglect and invisibility that many children face due to poverty and lack of support.
“We’ve all seen kids go to school with torn uniforms or no shoes — it’s not just a fashion issue, it’s a confidence crisis. We want to change that,” he explained.
The #ClothAChild campaign will involve visits to schools, engagement with local communities, collaborations with tailors and creatives, and the mobilization of volunteers and donors from across Nigeria and the diaspora.
A STORY OF INSPIRATION
Koil’s rise from a young student at Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED) to a national icon is as inspiring as it is humbling. Known for his resilience, creativity, and deep-rooted passion for making people look and feel good, Koil has turned his success into a platform for impact.
TASUED, a university that has produced thought leaders, innovators, and influencers, takes pride in his contribution, especially now that he is building legacy work that transcends fashion and fame.
“Every child deserves to feel worthy, seen, and celebrated — and we are using fashion as a tool to spark that transformation,” Koil emphasized.
CALL TO ACTION
Koil Foundation is calling on the general public, corporate bodies, influencers, and government agencies to support this dream. Whether through donations, volunteering, or partnerships, the foundation is ready to collaborate with anyone passionate about empowering children.
For more information, volunteering opportunities, or donations, visit @koilcreations on Instagram or reach out to the Koil Foundation directly through official contact points soon to be published.
TASUEDFINEST commends Koil’s bold vision and commitment to grassroots impact. This is a reminder that true excellence is not just about personal records — it’s about how many lives your success can uplift.
“Koil is not just creating fashion anymore — he’s creating futures.”

TASUED SUPER CUP 2025 – GAME. GLORY. HISTORY.

In a trending online drama that has turned into a national moment of pride, Ifedayo Moradeyo Johnson, a proud alumnus of the Department of English, Tai Solarin University of Education (TASUED), has set Twitter ablaze after publicly challenging a British user to an English proficiency test.
The heated exchange began when a UK-based account, @BasedNorthmathr, threw shade at Nigerian immigrants, alleging that the British care sector is now “critically dependent on Nigerians who barely speak English.” In defence of Nigeria’s linguistic dignity, Ifedayo clapped back with a bold counter:
“Let’s take an IELTS-style test — reading, writing, speaking, and listening. If you score higher, I’ll leave this country in 24 hours. But if I win, you’ll never again question a Nigerian’s English.”
The British user, clearly rattled, accepted the challenge and promised to take the same online IELTS practice test, signaling that this international showdown could soon go live.
But Ifedayo Moradeyo didn’t stop there. In a follow-up tweet, he shifted the focus from language to economic contribution, offering a second challenge:
“I’ll challenge you once again on behalf of every Nigerian to show what you contribute into the country and economy in terms of taxes etc and what you take from it… If I take more than I give, I’ll leave. But if I give more than you and take less, you’ll keep mute and never drag Nigerians into your agenda again.”
He closed with a poignant line:
“If no be condition wey make crayfish bend, how many English una sabi?”
But the moment is bigger than just viral tweets. Ifedayo, a TASUED-trained scholar and recent MA Journalism graduate from the University of Derby, UK, has unwittingly brought to light a deeper issue — the UK government’s plan to enforce annual English tests for international graduates under the Graduate Route.
The proposal has sparked concern, especially among Nigerians, who argue that fluency isn’t measured by accent but by mastery — something Ifedayo is ready to prove.
Back home at TASUED, students and alumni are celebrating one of their own as he stands tall, not just for himself, but for an entire nation often misjudged by colonial biases.
“This isn’t just about me. It’s about every Nigerian who has been mocked for their accent or background. Let’s settle it the right way,” Ifedayo told TASUEDFINEST.
Now, all eyes are on the outcome of the test — and Ifedayo’s rising reputation as a voice of reason, wit, and national pride.
