The pair happened to be in the British capital for entirely different reasons. Odunlade Adekola was attending the London Film Festival where an upcoming Nollywood film, The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives, was being showcased. Ayra Starr, on the other hand, had just delivered a landmark performance at the NFL International Series halftime show at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, becoming the first African artiste ever to headline an NFL International Game halftime show.
She performed during the matchup between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Jacksonville Jaguars, putting Nigerian music in front of a massive global audience.
