Embargo on All Terry G’s Songs

It is with due respect that we hereby call on your solidarity to the aforementioned situation. The Deejays Association of Nigeria (DJAN) through the disciplinary committee had over the years intervened on issues affecting our members and musicians cum artistes whenever our rights are trampled upon and Mr Gabriel Oche Amanyi aka Terry G have been given verbal warning on several occasions in recent times.

On Sunday the 5th of June 2016 at the Muson Centre, Lagos State, Nigeria, a music/comedy show held and Terry G was not among the artistes billed to perform; he begged the organisers until he was told to perform for seven minutes, but he got on stage already tipsy and after about 18 minutes on stage insulting everyone, the organisers asked the DJ to play a different song by another artiste. No sooner had the song started to play than Terry G descended on the DJ who was the head DJ of Jatt Incorporated. Beyond assault, the DJ sustained various degrees of injuries on his face; right in front of the Legendary Dj Jimmy Jatt.

This type of violence and physical abuse is unacceptable.

Although planned legal actions are on the way, after wide consultations and deliberations, the Deejays Association of Nigeria hereby place an ‘EMBARGO’ on all songs of Terry G, audio and video (including songs he featured in) indefinitely in all events, lounges, bars, radios and every other spot where it is the duty of a DJ to play music, nationwide.
