Any news from UAE as regards the restriction placed on Nigeria


Abi na audio reversal?

We are still working out the modalities of the lifting of the ban.

We are working closer with our UAE counterparts for almost a year now

I really don't know much about their story until they started their fun beef. I call if fun beef cos it doesn't look anything serious.

It's true Tony's mom was financially ok....cos I've actually met Tony tetuila when he was still staying with his mom and siblings at no 3 grace street, Bariga. I think they occupied the whole first floor of the building or maybe the art quake was staying in the other flat...cos I usually see ice k of artquake around there. I was still little then. My gist with Ice k showed that Tony was too close to plantation boiz...

According to the level of talents in the industry back then, I wouldn't call Tony untalented. Edris himself was untalented too..going by the migidifigidi lyrics. He was just good in making commercial chorus...and that was the main thing back then. That's also what Tony capitalized on..like he did in "my car". Tuface and black face were the good artists that can write well then.

You are right about Edie mistake in marrying Kenny sister. Maybe that was what finished him finally.

Three of them lacked the stamina to last long.

Maybe Tetuila was not untalented , but he was the less talented amongst the 3 of them while their union lasted .

Eddy was really good and Eedris had the commercial rap thingy going well for him that time . I think Eddy just lost his head in the whole blowout from their breakup and his eventual failed marriage .

The way Eedris kept on slurping on Keke's
Diiick in that podcast video ehn..... He just gave me a vibe of somonew who always manipulate others to have his way

odizeey:
That guy run them local scam

Person wey say he enter desert. That one fit do anything for money.

Aswear !

Eedris really senior them for streets level 💯
Eddy mentioned how his parents who resides abroad sent him $5000 which he was using to run their initial music hustle ; he dey combine school and music .

Eedris don tear eyes all those period ; he don enter desert come back even thought of joining ECOMOG soldier at a point

Eedris just chop Eddy money , chop Tetuila mama money and still ended up causing rift between both when they started making loney together as a group. The snake wey tempt eve dey learn work where Eedris dey.

odizeey:
They said Eedris lied o. Na 350k them make. Watch Tony and Gbenga Awe interview with Daddy Freeze.

Eedris too dey lie

Eedris na bastardd 😂

That guy just use everybody head still dey lie on top . He just use street for everybody .

Eedris is arguably the first yahoo boy in Nigeria. Talk about how he who was still an artiste trying to blow collected 60k from Tetuila's mum to help blow her son. Yet he dey make Eddy see am as if Tony na just one random handicapped guy he's trying to help in his musical career .

[color=royalblue]I wouldn't even blame any oldie from walking away from music. It was too hard to make it

These days, only streams can give you a luxurious life.

Those days, your life was dependent on what music marketers like Obaino, Ossy and Ahbu ventures go pay.

Now, you can sing one song and be made. I doubt if Tekno has an album sef.

Back then, you need to have an album before marketers can take you seriously.

I no blame them at all. They all suffered[/color]

U need to watch the podcast. As much as it was hard to make money from music, these guys made money!

When Remedies made their first millions from tour; Eedris narrated how Keke helped them collect the cash, get hotel room with safe at Sheraton and all....

They didn't make much money from selling CD's and cassette but they made money from Shows like Benson & Hedges, Star Mega jam etc.

odizeey:
Eedris story has a lot of loopholes.

Most were saying things that would justify them.

Eedris said he told Tony to gum Pboys. No be you bring am come group? Why no stand up for him? Blackface that said in one old interview with Osagie that he was the one that met Remedies and told ask them why were they treating him like that. Blackface talked about how thye helped him write songs for his first album too.

Eedris na snake. That part where he denied Eddy before keke when they wanted to leave was where I knew the guy na snake.

Industry messed Eddy up. I can't remember any of his hit solo single. Person wey get pure talent (Not Hazard type) pass all of them. I believe they blacklisted him.

Omo! That day I listened to their songs over and over again; Eddy's talent just ended up getting wasted. It's such a pity.

He was as good as Tuface; the guy could sing. It was a big business mistake he made getting emotionally entangled with Keke's Younger sister. If he had not mixed pleasure with busines , I believe he would've achieve more than he did.

iamoyindamola:
Edris have always been the greedy one even though I was young then
Their was one single he sang with tuface where he used the line without edris there's no remedies and without tuface there won't be plantation bois
That thing get to people's head which eventually broke them off, I think kennis music group also played some big roles in these breakup
They wanted tuface, blackface is stubborn and can't be controlled faze is just there no talent
In the remedies, edris is their man, tetuila people hold bar and eddy was simping with saint brown before him eye clear

Eedris just use everybody head.

If u go back and listen to their songs, u will pity Eddy and how his career later turned out. Eddy was really really talented with a very good voice. Eddy could've gotten the level of success Tuface had if he wasn't enmeshed in the fallout of the group's breakup and his marriage crash.

GloriousGbola:
Thank you for the summary.

Are you saying edris er cucked eddy? What do you mean by dining with his wife?

Eedris was playing both sides. He was supposed to leave Kennis music with Eddy, then he folded at the last minute. While he had agreed with Eddy for them to both leave Kennis, at the meeting he simply told Keke he doesn't want to leave and gave Keke a CD full of his songs he has recorded without Eddy's knowledge to be his own solo album.

As regards the dining part, It most likely a business meeting between Kenny St Brown as Kennis music executive and Eedris as an artiste under the label. But u know it really looks somehow especially with Eddy not being aware of such meeting between his housewife and his partner.

That guy was messed up in the head from all those shiiiit

Tony Tetuila's Interview with Freeze


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwIOoyWd1X4

Did anybody here really follow the Eedris, Eddy and Tony Tetuila matter as per their recent podcast cameo?

Over the weekend I watched the full version of Eedris podcast session with dem Nedu & the gang , I watched Eddy's interview with Freeze(In reaction to Eedris podcast session) and Freeze's interview with Tony Tetuila. All I can say is Omo!

Eedris gave a version of the formation of The Remedies that goes thus; Eedris had been doing music in the north before coming to Lagos. He was squating in Lagos and was hustling to make music and along the line he met Eddy. They made music together, one thing led to another they met Keke Ogungbe who was already on raypower, he gave them airtime and the song blew.

They made money and Keke asked them for the name they will call themselves and he mentioned how he was called Remedy in the north. So Keke asked if he can call them The Remedies and they agreed. Somehow they met Tony Tetuila whose mum was rich and the mum gave them 60k which they used for music promotion and all.

After listening to Eddy's intevrview giving his side of the story and debunking allegations Eedris made about Eddy being the greedy one who wanted Tony out cos he (Eddy ) felt Eedris and Eddy are the one's doing the work while Tony was not really talented; I believe Eedris was the snake in the group.

From Eddy's account of the events, it appears Eedris met with Tony's mum and collected money from her with the intention to carry her son along. Eedris did this without ever informing Eddy about it. He just smuggled Tony into the group knowing he had limited talent. Eedris was playing middle man in the game. Eedris was the one that advised Tony to start writing his songs by himself cos he felt Eddy would soon push Tony out .

Eedris advised Tony to move close to Plantashun boiz and that was what made Tony feature them in his first single "Omode Meta " in which he dissed Eedris and Eddy. Immediately, Same Eedris advised Eddy for them to respond and this led to them releasing "Jealousy" in response.

Eddy claimed he never even knew or met Tony until the day they (himself and Eedris) were to reocord their first single and Eedris came to the venue with one boy limping behind him( i.e Tony) .

Eddy happens to be the one that was 4cked the most in the group at the end of the day. Omo I felt for him watching the video. Niggga completely broke down and was sobbing in the video. He was 4cked by even his own wife who was the vice president of Kennis music as at that time. I think he made a costly mistake marrying Kenny St. Brown. While he was trying to leave Kennis music; his wife was an executive on Kennis Music. The same wife was having dinner with Eedris his partner. The story long. By the time his marriage was over, Eddy was well over 4cked.

Tony is what we call "omo oni mama" on the streets. His parents were comfortable; at the time the group was on; his Mercedes benz was he first car they used to commute as a group. At a time there was no mobile phone, he had a cellular phone. These things made him prey to Eedris who really everyone around him. Tony listened to Eedris' advise of writing his own songs himself and was able to make commercial success after the group split.

There's a lot to unpack in those 3 interviews , but one thing that stick out for me is that Eedris is not who he's actually portraying himself to be to the younger generation. The whole videos and narration will give u nostalgia sha if remember the Nigerian music industry in the late 90's/early 2000's

He better be careful
Before the attention seekers open account on his head
I think they should also orientate the girl I they see her for tictok doing all sorts she's ain't even 18 yet

I don't the girl needs orientation, it's the father that should know what is appropriate and what is not appropriate in the place of public opinion.

In my opinion, Na the man no act well sha.

I saw the video Yesterday; I think that bros was drunk in that video.

WhoDeyHause:
Boss try calm down ejo. At least to respect the dead. Several saw this coming but there's almost nothing you can do to stop a determined mind influenced by very strong factors.

I don't have anything against the dead o. I already mentioned it that it's unfortunate the dead had to go that way.

Nobody deserves to die trying to hustle for rice which is like the cheapest staple food in the world.

Funny enough, the customs statement on the incident I read this morning was practically blaming the dead and injured. The customs absolves itself of any blame but rather blamed the impatience of the crowd.

Emaprince:
People be gaslighting every one for calling a spade a spade.

I remember making a post which I ended with " laugh now, cry later". That's cos I had the feelings that a day like this will come when hunger and suffering will grip the land. If you blame people for the choices they made, they will tag you insensitive..but during election period that saw many people brutalized for supporting an opposition, none of them condemned it. We saw them laughing and that was mostly when we started seeing " it is what it is". So it's no longer what it is?

Those things were regarded as structure. Na why I talk say we saw these things with our korokoro eyes, we read people justifying these incidents that should be condemned because it favors their political leanings and here we are today.

ouzo1:
Baba I understand with u o bt just calm down...

It is well.

afrodoc2:
I am sure not every single APC member behaved that way. The woman just died so i don't think it is the appropriate time to make assumptions about her without any evidence.

I used the word "probably " in my post for a reason. It may appear insensitive but the stuff some of these people (particularly the card-carrying members of the party) did during and after the elections makes it difficult for one to pity them in the face of the current happenings in the land.

Those that didn't join in disenfranchising their fellow citizens based on political differences were busy laughing and boasting about the unfortunate incidents during the elections in which people were called unprintable names, people beaten for their political choice and even people denied access into polling units for having fair complexion.

obainojazz:
Not necessary bro

What is not necessary ? That it's untrue people wrote that on their statuses or what?

Maybe u don't know they didn't stop at " This administration will favour me and my family". They labelled everyone else bitter, unpatriotic and some even wished evil on those who don't believe in the Tinubu presidency.

We saw these things; we read these things with our eyes and chose not to comment cos we saw where all this was headed

Segedinho:
Such an emotional and taughtful government 🤣🤣

The lady is probably one of those who posted on their FB and Whatsapp " This administration will favor me and my family "

It's unfortunate she became a victim of the policies of her party in government.

It's very easy to deal it. The Civil Service rule gives a 2yrs jail time to anyone that share sensitive government documents to the public without authorization.

All they need to do is use one person as scape goat and the nonsense will stop.

I think the only thing that can curb all the leaks is to automate their processes . Nobody should be carrying document in physical file from one departmental office to another in this age and time .

I get approval of over N100m by just sending a mail to one of our higher-ups outside the country and just by a response of " okay, approved " , I get necessary approval .

The mail goes to the intended receipient and the feedback gets to the initial person that made the request. No in-betweens , no room for leakage midway when the IT infrastructure is not compromised ,etc . If at any point a copy of the mail gets to an unwanted hand, u can easily trace where the leak came from.

If it can work out in the private sector , it can work in the civil service as well.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]Your assumption is big oh.

Why can't a southerner do it?[/color]

I have a theory.

FCT/Abuja is a civil service city/territory .

APC that fielded Tinubu the current president polled just 20% of the total votes casted in Abuja at the 2023 elections .

In fact , APC lost all 10 polling units in and around Aso Rock villa ( the seat of power ) .

This to me suggests the civil servants as much as the law requires them to be partisan ; have their own interests and Tinubu the APC candidate is someone they still harbor contempt for .

Even though he's now the president , they still do not fancy his presidency and they will find a way to always throw shiiit in his face .

Fun fact is even if all perm secs are sacked , the normal staff in the service will always find their way around embarrassing Tinubu's government when the opportunity presents itself like the Qatar own.

They will always thank oBANTala the god of banter anytime Tinubu bants material drop at their feet

I already feel sorry for investors IRR on that project with dollar at N1.5k and selling to electricity consumers in Naira. The project will return negative NPV even over 20 year timeline

It's obvious considering what our naira is doing against the dollar now. The only thing that will
Make the investors not cut loss is if the naira later picks up over time.

20 years is a lot of time.

Prof. Bath Nnaji, according to reports, has gotten approval to build a robotics manufacturing company, or something along those lines, in Enugu.

If true, more of that, please.

The man is really doing well for the people of south east . I read that he could've sited the geometric power plant in Lagos and it would've made him more money in the long run; but he thought more of the job opportunities he would be denying his people and also the under-tapped industrial value of Aba he's letting go of .

seankafor:
bro,if it was a bad economic news caused by previous administrations,shey una go remember say na past administrations d tin from?
is gorvernment no longer a continium?

Government is continuum and private business is private business . Barth Nnaji's Geometric power is a private business

The business is a $800m business that has many private investors and promoters aside Nnaji himself . It had nothing to do with who is governor and who is not.

Let's just say the only major contribution to its success is Alex Otti not revoking the C of O to the land it's situated on when he became governor

seankafor:
don't know why u hate otti like this, his people love him.. everything he touches turns gold 🪙

This is one of the first gorvernors in igboland to be loved organically by his people.. you can't buy that with money 💰 bro

Respect it

But it's obvious the project is Barth Nnaji's brain child and Otti had little or nothing to do with its success na. Na since Jonathan era Nnaji has been nursing the idea .

In fact, we can say the only thing Otti did in the whole process going to commission the project as the sitting governor .

That could've been anybody.
