The National Broadcasting Commission, has reportedly banned D’banj’s new hit single, Oliver Twist, for containing lewd lyrics. Sources say the popular song was especially banned because D’banj eulogises actress, Omotola Jalade Ekehinde’s derriere. Part of the song goes, “I like Omotola, (because) her y*ansh is bigger.” The NBC was reported to have thus issued a circular to all radio and television stations to stop playing the song.

E-Punch could not immediately reach the NBC as at the time of going to press. Reacting to the ban, Mo’Hits president and producer, Don Jazzy, said in vernacular via a post on twitter, “Please, worry not about the banning of Oliver o, e dey happen. We are kinda used to it now. Ijebu garri no dey do advert but e dey sell.”

Days before the ban, the label with star artistes such as D’banj, Wande Coal, Dr. Sid and D’Prince, ironically consolidated on its dominance of the Nigerian entertainment industry with a sold-out show at the Hammersmith Apollo, London. Months after Mo’Hits had entered into a partnership deal with American rapper-producer, Kanye West’s G.O.O.D Music, cynics and sceptics were left stunned when West appeared at the label’s concert, Monday evening.
