List of number-one songs of 2022 (Nigeria)

The TurnTable Top 100 (formerly known as TurnTable Top 50) is the official music chart for Nigeria, published weekly by TurnTable magazine. The chart ranks the most popular songs in the country based on a combination of streaming and airplay data. Streaming accounts for 50% of the chart, sourced from platforms including Apple Music, Spotify, Boomplay, Audiomack, YouTube, and Deezer, with paid streams weighted more heavily than ad-supported streams. Airplay, which also accounts for 50% of the chart, is tracked via Radiomonitor and includes both radio and television plays across Nigeria.^[1]

During 2022, seventeen singles reached number one on the TurnTable Top 50 chart, which expanded to the TurnTable Top 100 in July. "Peru" by Fireboy DML and English singer Ed Sheeran topped the chart in early January, though it had originally been released and began charting in December 2021. Of the seventeen number-one singles, ten were collaborations, with twenty-three acts topping the chart as either lead or featured artists. Kizz Daniel's "Buga (Lo Lo Lo)" featuring Tekno, and Fireboy DML & Asake's "Bandana" were tied as the longest-running number-ones, each leading the chart for seven non-consecutive weeks. "Buga (Lo Lo Lo)" also topped the TurnTable Year-End Top 100, becoming the biggest hit of 2022 in Nigeria, while "Bandana" finished as the second biggest song of the year.

Asake spent a total of fourteen weeks at number one across six different songs, the most by any artist in 2022. TurnTable magazine named him the top artist of the year,^[2] making him the first artist to achieve this honor following the chart's expansion.^[2] He placed twelve songs on the year-end Top 100 chart, with "Sungba (Remix)" featuring Burna Boy peaking at number four. Other songs by or featuring non-Nigerian acts that reached the top position in 2022 included "For My Hand" by Burna Boy featuring Ed Sheeran in July, and "Kwaku the Traveller" by Ghanaian artist Black Sherif, which spent five consecutive weeks at number one from April to May.
