In recent times, Nigerian celebrities have been gaining more grounds internationally and this has helped boost the image of our nation Nigeria.

The celebrities were selected based on the their media visibility in print, television and radio as well as online references from Google plus social media power. It has been noticed that a lot of these celebrities are now being verified on twitter and their fan base on several social media sums up to millions now. This data combined with the information of record deals and releases, tours, endorsements and their general clout across the continent and diaspora have placed them on this list.
