Nigeria 🇳🇬: Street Named After Nigerian Star Adekunle Gold: A Family Affair


 


Nigerian music star Adekunle Gold (born Adekunle Almoruf Kosoko) is celebrating a new, deeply personal milestone: a street has been named in his honour. The singer, known for his global hits and unique blend of Afrobeats, Pop, and Highlife, took to social media to share his joy, emphasizing that the recognition was a moment for his entire family to revel in.

While the exact location of the newly named street has not been officially confirmed, sources close to the star indicate the honour is likely in his home country, Nigeria, where he has long been a cultural icon. The naming of the street is seen as a significant tribute, cementing his legacy not just as a musician but as a respected figure within his community.

"This isn't just for me; it's a testament to the journey and the support of my wife, my daughter, and every member of my family who believed in this dream," Adekunle Gold reportedly shared in a heartfelt message. Photos accompanying his announcement showed the star smiling broadly alongside his relatives, underscoring the communal nature of the celebration.

The honour comes during a period of sustained international success for the artist, who has consistently toured globally and released acclaimed albums. This latest tribute, however, brings the spotlight back home, highlighting the deep connection he maintains with his roots and the community that first nurtured his talent.
