I dunno...
But one thing i believe is, when u dont call often...it shows u dont care/love the person...even if u cant call or too busy to call, try snding a txt or something! Cause if u dont give ur partner all d attention he or she needs, someone else might do that job for you.

Hi. Do you feel odd right now? I know you’re used to interviewing people and not being interviewed…
Exactly, I’m kinda shy right now.

Don’t be. Do tell me a bit about yourself…
My name is Ill aka Illie aka your Big Hommie. I’m just some guy who just pops up on your TV and radio and has fun and does cool TV and radio shows.

Starting Out
How did you get on to TV?
Accidental.

What exactly do you mean by accidental? Tell me about it…
I don’t mean to sound cocky or anything but back in the day, TV in Nigeria wasn’t exactly cool. I used to work for a Value Added Service (VAS) company where I was creating and selling mobile content. At that time I started the first online magazine in Nigeria which is called Vibe Weekly for a company called Mtech. So I went to the producer of Nokia First Chance, Segun Giwa, to buy mobile rights for the contestants. When I got there, he told me they were looking for a presenter and asked if I was interested in hosting the show. When I told my friends, they encouraged me, asking me to take the job since I was always complaining about Nigerian TV. The next meeting I had with Segun, he was like “Dude, just do the show” and I was like “You know what, let’s do this” and I haven’t looked back since.

You’ve hosted quite a number of shows after that. Nokia First Chance must have opened a lot of doors for you…
The feedback was great. Most of the Urban TV channels started calling me up and when the show finished, I left my VAS job and joined Nigezie as the Brand Manager and Music Content Producer as well as a presenter. I was there for a short time but as soon as I decided to leave Nigezie, Sound City was right there.

When did this happen?
6yrs ago. Btw 2005 and 2006.

I understand you only recently graduated from the University two years ago. That should mean you were hosting TV shows as an undergraduate…
I was fresh out of high school when I started the online magazine. I graduated from Kings College in 2001 and started working. I just got into the University in 2006.

How were you able to cope with the demands of work and school?
I was hardly even in school. My lecturers used to be very angry with me because I hardly used to attend lectures.

Why did it take you so long to get into the University after you finished from Secondary School? Was it because of the demands of work?
I was kinda being forced to go to school abroad and I was like no, I want to do what I want to do. I want to do entertainment. I was a model a long time ago when I was still good looking. Going to UNILAG was like a meeting ground for me and my family. I said OK, I’ll go to the University but I want to stay in Lagos, Nigeria. So I went to University and I was still working, never gave up my time. I studied Mass Communication and I graduated in 2010.

Hosting the Nigerian Idols
Let’s talk about your experience hosting the Nigerian Idols. What did you see when you looked into eyes of those young contestants?
Fear, anxiety, but also I see a lot of determination and boldness. You can see that these guys actually want to be super stars – the bad ones and the good ones. The auditions were the really funny part. I saw all sorts of people. I’m not going to say any body is untalented but they were special. Some of them would come out and say “men, I’m the best singer in the world” meanwhile, the guy sounded like a dead chicken. And the judges would blast the guy and he’d still come out and say “it was great men. They love me but said I can’t make it in Nigerian Idols but men, I’ve got swag.” Some of them took rejection really well.
