CHRIS MORGAN ABAH OCHOGWU (a k a Chris Morgan)


Very talented Nigerian gospel artiste. If u are a lover of Nigerian gospel music and you don't know Chris Morgan, then u are still about to start

Benue state (the food basket of the nation) has shown Nigeria that food is not the only thing they can offer to the Nation afterall. This state has also done well in producing numerous reputable and celebrated Nigerians just like other middlebelt and Nigerian states.

One love 2my Benue peeps

ice prince is from Niger state not plateau

How can Ice Prince be from Niger state?
He was born in Niger state but he Ice prince is Ngas by tribe from Pankshin LGA, plateau.

TedBaker:
God Bless my dear. The OP knows not she post. Cause she heard PANAM. That's a Bwatiye name generalizing bachama n mbula in Numan,Demsa,Lamurde,Fufore and Girei LG

See Mr man. JOS plateau is already a succesful place which so many Nigerian celebrities want to identify with. U can never compare it with an ordinary place like Adamawa that breeds boko haram.

Some profiles on Panam Percy Paul identify him as from Plateau, check wikipedia for instance. If Jos Plateau had not given some of these ppl an opportunity to succeed, they probably wouldnt have.
Jos is the capital of christianity in the north/middlebelt.

guest12345:
Jos is blessed... Please also show me my state celebrities ooo we too have them there. (KOGI STATE)

I think there has already been a thread on Kogi celebrities.

kingDELE:

MI was born and bred in Jos, but he is actually from Taraba state

Rajosh:
oh. I thought Victor Moses was from kd and Ahmed Musa from Kano. thanks op. now I know better.

Yes, many people think Victor Moses is from Kaduna because he was born and brought up there, but he is actually from Kanke in Plateau. He visits Kanke many times when he is in Nigeria. His uncle was once interviewed in Kaduna and he confirmed that they are from Plateau......Ahmed Musa is not from Kano truly

Jos- Plateau state is unarguably one of the greatest cities in Nigeria in terms of the numerousness of talented artistes and celebrities it has produced over the decades.
Only Lagos surpasses Jos- Plateau in terms of talented artistes and celebrities it has produced. Other places like Kaduna and Enugu may also come close to Jos in this regard.
Jos- Plateau has been a home for all, one of the most hospitable and welcoming places in Nigeria and that's why so many succesful non- natives have emerged from the place and take it as a home.

However this thread focuses on Celebrities who actually originated from the Plateau.
Thank God for the gradual relative peace returing to the Plateau since all the past years of conflicts.
Meet them.

patholaw:
@op six foot plus and joel are from Benue. . . idoma's to be precise. . . . but dey spent most part of their lives in kaduna

It is already settled. SIX FOOT PLUS is from benue but JOEL is from Kaduna.

Isahalbash:
she is from Gombe state.

No, she is not. She is from Zaria.

abnur14:
I thought dan kano ne ..is he from Kaduna?

He is a hausa born in Zangon kataf LGA, Hence d surname Zango......But he is actually from Zaria.

Yujin:
The babayaros are Igbo. Even one of the names gave them away 'celestine'. Do Christians from the middle belt bear such names?
What about Friday Jibo? Is he not a celebrity too? Gospel music.

Hmm u saw Celestine, what about Istifanus?

Didnt u see the first lady on this thread, dat beauty queen? Her name is PEACE ISTIFANUS, does dat mean she is also igbo too?

macof:
kaduna man with the name "amadi"

I have seen Kaduna and Nasarawa names that sound like igbo names e.g Achukwu, Wachukwu, Obi, Chilaka, Chikwe e.t.c.....i have seen Kaduna and Nasarawa people answering these names.....in my place in Plateau state, ppl even answer Azonchi as a name.

oostin:
I'm pretty certain that the Babayaros are Igbo though they grew up in Kaduna. It's like saying Mikel is from Plateau State simply because he grew up in Jos.

Babayaros are not and never igbos. They are from Kaduna state! Everyone knows that Mikel is igbo

RandomVic:
Joel, 6 foot plus and Amokachi are all from Benue State. Why spread false news? Rubbish!

Pls i never listed Amokachi among the list.

Joel is a pure Kaduna indigene

Rajosh:
you forgot Victor Moses

Victor Moses is originally from Plateau state although he grew up in Kaduna state

Qualer:
stop misinformation of the populace!!

Ok, tell the people the truth since u know it
