Today in Africa — December 26, 2025: US Strikes ISIS in Nigeria, Somalia Votes, High-Stakes Elections in West Africa
OkayAfrica has scoured the Internet for today’s major news stories, so you don't have to. On Dec 26, coverage includes a U.S. airstrike on Islamic State targets in northwest Nigeria, Mogadishu’s municipal elections seen as a test for Somalia’s first direct national polls in decades, high-stakes votes in Côte d’Ivoire, the Central African Republic, and Guinea amid fraud claims, security concerns, and power struggles, and more.
Sonically, I Want Something New combines R&B and Afrobeats, which plays as the perfect backdrop for documenting the highest order of emotion, love.
In the song "Sumtin New," R&B artist and close friend of Priddy Ugly's, KLY makes an appearance, and as you might already know, the man can't do no wrong.
I Want Something New is a thoroughly enjoyable project consisting of two beautiful love songs that will make your Valentine's Day a memorable one.
Bontle and Priddy continue to be everyone's #LoveGoals as they seem to be growing from strength to strength, having been together for approximately 10 years.
