Dear Alex Ogechukwu,
In recent times, I have dedicated my time to educated misled and ignorant folks like you and so again, I will quickly SCHOOL you.
To begin with, Don Jazzy is an Isoko man from Delta state but to give you a good night sleep tonight, let’s assume he is from your tribe since he was born in Umuahia about four decades and half ago.
No doubt, we cannot ignore how instrumental Don Jazzy has been to the careers of not just Tiwa Savage but D’banj and Wande Coal before her. It is however rather unfortunate that you will play a tribal card on this which is why I will go on a little journey…
Everything Don Jazzy is as long as music is concerned can simply be attributed to the Yoruba tribe…walk with me.
As a young man, Don Jazzy played drums for a Yoruba C&S church, he developed quickly to the extent that he got invited to United Kingdom to play for the church’s branch in London.
From playing in Church, Don Jazzy started playing with YORUBA bands especially Adesoji Adebayo (WonderBoy Solek) and Jide Chord. Solek later introduced him to Abdulrasheed Bello (Jjc Skillz), the hip hop rave of that era in the UK.
JJC, also a YORUBA taught Don Jazzy how to produce music and introduced him to the world of entertainment which was tad bit different from his regular band boy career.
…through JJC, he met D’banj and the rest is history.
Now long before Don Jazzy, you guys had Oliver de Coque whom some idiots recently tried comparing to Fela but are you aware this same Oliver De Coque was a band boy with atleast two YORUBA Juju bands (Jacob Oluwole’s Friendly Unity Juju Band and later Sule Agboola's Moonlight Guitar Band) before launching his own solo music career?
Are you aware the Yoruba support for Oliver de Coque didn’t even stop at that? After he set out to form his own band, he was singed to Olumo Records owned by Alhaji Olatunde Waheed Yusuf until many years later when he launched his own imprint.
Like Oliver de Coque, are you aware a Yoruba man, Bayo Odusami gave Psquare their first break? Bayo who was known as Howie T didn’t just promote Psquare, he signed them to his Timbuk2 Records and released their first album before Jude took over managing them. Not for once have they lamented about being cheated by Howie T but we know the other story. Howie T many years later also signed Skales after he left Banky W’s EME.
I have also seen Kelly Handsome making disparaging comments about Yoruba claiming they don’t support Igbo talents. I mean this same Kelly Handsome who got his big break after being signed to Kennis Music owned by a Yoruba man, Kenny Ogungbe and his sidekick; Dayo Adeneye. The same Kennis gave Idoma boy; 2face Idibia his big break, not forgetting the likes of Joel Amadi, Mavelous Benjy, Essence and many other non-Yoruba signed to the label but as far as Yorubas are concerned, they don’t support Igbo talents…let posterity be the judge.
Ask Phyno how he got his big break or better still, remove ‘Ghost Mode’ which was influenced by Olamide from his catalogue and what do you have left? When Phyno left the South East for Lagos and asked Illbliss for guidiance, it was a Yoruba boy; Abiodun Peters the same one you all know as Clarence Peters who gave Ill’s Goretti a home to operate with and gave Phyno the push his Sputnet couldn’t give him. After this, he also started his own Penthauze imprint.
Even more recently, one of the most visible Igbo talents in vogue at the moment is that controversial OdumoduBlvck but do you even know who is behind his break? A certain Teniola Zaccheaus alongside his business partners led by Seni (Bukola Saraki’s son) signed him to their Native Records.
I can actually go on and on but one thing is certain, no Igbo person who knows anything about the Nigerian entertainment industry will berate the Yoruba tribe because no single collective of people have contributed more to the industry than the Yoruba.
Dear ignoramus Alex Ogechukwu, always come proper if you want to banter.
What we are seeing here is verbal and emotional abuse of a child. Bedwetting is not a reason to shame, ridicule, humiliate or publicly expose a child.
Children deserve to grow up in environments where they feel safe, loved and supported, especially when they are experiencing something they may not even be able to control.
This is why we keep talking about child wellbeing and positive parenting. The adults responsible for raising children have a duty to protect their emotional and psychological wellbeing, not become the source of their pain.

"Peter Obi didnt recruit a single teacher and didnt train old ones. He didn't pay minimum wage and didnt upgrade schools leading to classes with leaking roofs for almost 8 years."- Immediate Predecessor to Peter Obi 'buries' Peter Obi & exposes the lies of Obingos in 62 secs. 🤣
I am the messenger of TRUTH!
A man says there’s a 24-year-old lady who had been playing hard to get. After he finally got her chance following a previous heartbreak, he said she insisted on coming to his house.
When they arrived, he asked her to take a shower, but she said she was tired. She then took off her clothes and left them on the floor, which made him suspicious.
She initially claimed the light was disturbing her eyes. Luckily, NEPA took the light, so he decided to check on her with his second NEPA his phone touch😂
Omo, na so he sent her packing in the middle of the night. 😂
Watch how the FUTA Biomedical Engineering Class of 2025 helped an amputee of 13 years walk again, turning what they learnt in class into a life-changing solution.
During one of my field training exercise, I was randomly selected and tasked to be a squad leader and I should move my formation from point A to point B tactically as we get attacked.
Fortunately for me, this guy beside is Nigerian/ Yoruba and Infantryman 😂
🙏🙏🙏🙏.
Everywhere I go around the world. The moment I mention I am from Nigeria. Everyone screams his name. Some say Jay Jay, some say Kusha. Some aikwacha, some say Okocha.even though some struggle to pronounce his name, but they never forget the memories he gave them.
HE IS S NATIONAL TREASURE.!
I created an AI Smart Glass to help blind people walk without a cane or a guide 👓
But this is not like the smart glasses people are used to seeing
Because this Glass combines AI, sensors, and GPS to help the user detect things in front of them, avoid obstacles, and know their location
But the most amazing thing is if the user gets lost, the GPS tracking system can help locate where they are from anywhere, and then send the location to the phone of the person taking care of them via WhatsApp or Email 📲
And now I am further developing it to a new level of AI + Voice, so it can speak with the user and also help them understand their surroundings
I have put the video showing how it works completely in the comment. 🎥
SHARE this project 🤝🔥
Let the world see what a young Nigerian can build
Have u ever wondered what was the role of each Oyomesi Chief? Most were discussed in the video below. Enjoy!
**Oyo copied Ife's Iwarefa (6) Council for decades until they added a 7th chief & changed the Council's name to 'Oyomesi'. The change was to make voting easier. Some claimed Alaafin Atiba made that change.
My younger brother Femi speaks Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba fluently.
Among our siblings, only both of us have this unique gift. I think we were very strategic about learning languages and it has been very worth it.
Kindly have a listen.
The most accurate twins telepathy you’ll ever see 😂😂
If this twins walk up to your office or shop, you will not have choice than to patronize them 😁
I pray God open the door of mercy for them 🙏🏽❤️
I didn’t want to get involved in this issue, but charity they say begins at home. This is her father, by the way—Collins Eselemo—spreading pure hate in a supposed peace meeting, openly saying they’re ready for war with Itsekiri leaders, “one million Ayiri and one million Ejele, they are ready” 😂
This hatred will never end. And your father isn’t even from Warri—he’s originally from Ndoro Community in Bayelsa State—yet he’s one of the biggest sponsors of ethnic hatred and violence in Warri. You’re out here crying online? Go cry to him instead.
Iyabo Ojo is the one who kpai Temitope Osobola, Allwell Ademola, Alex Ekubo and others who have gone because once they set their eyes on her they gave up.
