"The ICPC released D’banj... after the agency could not find anything incriminating on him," said a statement , externalsigned by Pelumi Olajengbesi, D’banj’s lawyer.

D'banj was arrested earlier this week on allegations of fraud after millions of dollars meant to help unemployed youths start businesses was reported missing.

The artist - whose real name is Oladapo Daniel Oyebanjo - has claimed to be the brand ambassador for the scheme, turned himself in.

The N-Power initiative was launched in 2016 by President Muhammadu Buhari.

But many beneficiaries have complained for months that they were not receiving their grants.

Nigeria's anti-corruption agencies said in a statement on Wednesday that "billions of naira" had been diverted.

D’banj’s lawyer said it was an "embarrassment to the entire country that such a huge allegation [was made] against a public figure without any evidence”.

The anti-corruption agency is yet to respond to the BBC’s request for comment.

The US is set to back the idea that the African Union becomes a permanent member of the G20 group of leading economies as President Joe Biden meets African leaders next week, the Washington Post reports, external.

South Africa is currently the only African G20 member.

“It’s past time Africa has permanent seats at the table in international organizations and initiatives,” Judd Devermont, White House National Security Council’s senior director for African Affairs, said in a statement quoted by the news site.

“We need more African voices in international conversations that concern the global economy, democracy and governance, climate change, health, and security.”

Both the presidents of South Africa and Senegal have pushed Mr Biden to back increased representation for Africa, the Washington Post reports.

The US president will be welcoming his African counterparts to Washington for a three-day meeting starting on Tuesday. It will be the second US-Africa leaders’ summit after President Barack Obama hosted one in 2014.

Kenya's President William Ruto is in the Eritrean capital, Asmara, at the start "of a two-day official visit", Eritrea's information minister has tweeted.

Although a possible visit was mentioned last week when Eritrea's foreign minister was in Kenya, the timing of this trip was unexpected.

There was no announcement from the Kenyan presidency that this visit was going ahead, and no agenda has been made public.

Relations between Eritrea and Kenya have been strained in the past.

Last week, Eritrea's ministry of information, external said that when he met Foreign Minister Osman Saleh, Mr Ruto had "expressed the need for countries in the region to work jointly for realising peace and stability as well as political and economic developments".

Eritrea has been criticised for its participation in the two-year civil war in neighbouring Ethiopia, where it backed the federal government against the Tigrayans.

A peace deal is now being implemented but Tigrayans say that Eritrean troops have still not withdrawn from the region.

Kenya's former President Uhuru Kenyatta was one of the African Union-appointed brokers of the peace deal signed in South Africa last month.

Sampa the Great has really proved that you can be your dream.

She explained to me that when she named herself "the Great" at the start of her career, it wasn’t because she had a huge ego and was brimming with confidence. Quite the reverse, she says:

She has certainly achieved amazing things.

She’s the first Zambian to perform at the Coachella and Glastonbury festivals. She has opened for Kendrick Lamar and Lauryn Hill, her fans include the Obamas and Jada Pinkett-Smith, not to mention picking up awards and accolades along the way.

One of Sampa the Great’s proudest moments was when her song Never Forget was chosen as the soundtrack for the Black Panther: Wakanda Forever movie trailer.

As some of her videos testify, she’s a great fan of sci-fi and the Afrofuturism aesthetic.

But somehow despite having reached heights of global fame that few other African artists have managed, there was still a chink in Sampa the Great’s confidence.

She launched herself while a student in Australia, and she needed to know that she could function as an artist and be popular at home in Zambia.

She also needed the world to know that she, and her music, were deeply rooted in Zambian culture.

Sampa the Great’s album As Above So Below was recorded in Zambia in an intense two-week period. It was produced by Zambians and featured Zambian artists, including her sister Mwanji and cousin Tio.

It turns out that Sampa’s uncle Jagari was a founding member of pioneering Zamrock band W.I.T.C.H. back in the day:
