The godfathers of Nigeria’s hip hop music, and popular radio/tv personalities, Kenny Ogungbe and his partner, Dayo Adeneye of Primetime Entertainment have decided to go their separate ways, after over ten years of partnership.

The duo of Kenny and Dayo with their entertainment outfit revolutionalized the hip hop genre of music in Nigeria through their numerous radio and television programme in the early 1990s. They popularized the first major hip-hop group in Nigeria called – Remedies, comprising of Eedris Abdulkareem, Tony Tetuila and Eddy Montana. These groups actually changed the face of Nigeria’s hip hop music scene.

Until recent times,  Kenny and Dayo were always seen together at any public function. They received awards together, drove the same type of cars and their fans refer to them as ‘twins’. But all that has changed as Kenny and Dayo, popularly called D1, have decided to say goodbye to their union, but keeping it from the public.

A multi-million naira deal with Africa’s telecoms giant MTN tore them apart, and Kenny Ogungbe’s younger brother, Idowu Ogungbe also called ID Ogungbe was instrumental to the break up.

After the expiration of their earlier MTN deal few years ago which got the duo of Kenny and D1 two MTN branded H2 Hummer jeeps,  efforts to renew it proved abortive as the terms proposed by D1 to MTN was turned down while the telecoms company made a less juicy offer which D1 also rejected. The deal was for Primetime Entertainment, jointly owned by Kenny and D1.
