Christmas in Nigeria doesn’t come with snow, just harmattan dust and serious party vibes, so you will definitely need a lighthearted and danceable Afrobeats-infused track that reminds you to enjoy the simple pleasures and abundance that make Nigerian Christmas special, courtesy of Teni’s “This Christmas”. This record mixes English with Pidgin and Yoruba to celebrate family gatherings, gift-giving, and all the joy that comes with the season.
