NEWS :GORILLA POLITICS " SEE HOW THE D.G of NDLEA ABUSED HER POSITION

If our aim is to advance democratic process & practice, then the event that unfolded in Lagos, specifically Ikeja LGA is disturbing for Nigerians to note! When the D.G of the NDLEA in conjunction with armed NDLEA officials stormed the PDP Ward Congress venue, though they were resisted by other PDP party faithfuls, the NDLEA madam succeeded in writing the so-called result of the congress of that particular ward in the house of the chairman of that Local Govt chapter of the party to the dismay of the ward members. The surprising aspect of it is that the DG of NDLEA has her name in the result sheet as one of the ad-hoc delegates in the PDP primaries. One would have thought that the head of such an important organization, even though appointed by the PDP Govt should not have condescended to such a level of using State officials to harass and intimidate party members giving the party a very negative image about the party, the govt and the President who is seen as an apostle of Popular Participation. She was even on tape granting interviews, what a shame. I hope the President and high party officials will call her to order.

The Journey Of An Artiste

Dealing with some unprofessional producers was not easy for me. Then a light appeared at the end of the tunnel and I was introduced to Wole Oni.

Talking to him on the phone in October 2012, I poured out my heart and I could not believe I was crying while talking to a man I have not met before. I must say his sense of humour was not common to come across.

Then he came to Ireland and I picked him from one of his clients house. Immediately, I realised he looked different from what I had seen in pictures. I cannot describe what my initial thought was when I saw him first hand. So we exchanged greetings and I asked how was his wife.

Wole was very casual and before I knew it, musically he made me feel I was the best in all of the world . He took my Find God lyrics and turned it around in a positive way. Find God is a song to tell the world of someone who I have never stopped singing about.

Gradually I learned to be more positive and patient, how to turn bad situations into a learning opportunity, and how to make the best of a particular problem or experience . In fact Wole is someone I have learnt from.

Wole is the CEO of Wole Oni Music Production (W.O.M.P). W.O.M.P is a trademark. Though some feel his production is pricey but the value of his production is rare to come by. He is talented and humble. Getting to know him made me believe we still had extraordinary people in this world.

After the successful release of 'Find God', I went back as a returning customer to record 'I Choose To Be Free', then 'Come and Do It Right Now High Praise' and Worship Medley. Now we finally recorded 'Lift Him High' coming out this Christmas 2015.
