By festacman® Analysis(: Remedies under Kennies music took the dive. They took the over from Chris Okotie, Jide Obi, Sweet Breeze, Onyeka Onwenu, etc and started a new revolution Plantashun Boys made a statement that young people with creativity and originality can go places. This encouraged other young people to take their fate in their own hands. Tuface with his voice and creativity raised the bar higher to target global audience. Ruggedman showed that it is possible to rap in pidgin English as opposed to sounding American. Mode nine was hard core rapper who refused to change his style and originality to please the market. Psquare showed that excellently packaged videos is key in driving even average songs to the top. Dagrin and Nigger Raw showed that raping in Yoruba and Igbo,respectively, can be commercially successful. Mo hit crew led by Don Jazzy and Dbanj who arrived from UK and raised the bar once again through showmanship. |

Media development in Nigeria The series continues… THE PERIOD OF LAMENTATION: THE RISE AND RISE OF CONGOLESSE MUSIC BOTH IN NIGERIA AND AFRICA This period exist in Nigeria entertainment industry between 1990 to 2000. A Whole decades of lamentation and sorrow for the Nigeria music. The Nigeria music scene was totally snubbed not only in the world but also on our continent in Africa. Our hardworking musicians are not getting awards. Our musical videos was characterized as emptiness both in picture quality and depth. The best platform at these time was channel O located in south Africa. It is in South Africa the big prizes are craved. The big boys are paraded year in year out in South Africa. No honour roll list for naija musician. There were huge cries in the media about the poor quality of our sound, poor quality of our videos. Many seminars were done no result. Mind you, this period also signed of the death of Africa musical legend of all times : fela anikulapo kuti ( the man who pocketed death). Howerer, despite the gloomy picture the man who raised our heads high on the continent was the man with the masquerades LAGBAJA, ‘omo baba muko muko’. The congolesse music became the national anthem in nigeria, on the street and the street corners, on radio and TV. At night clubs it must be congolesse music. On your birthdays and naming or house warming parties, the congolesse music thrives. The music not only thrives it also come along with it, the dance step. Notables congolesse superatar during this epoch period include baba wemba now late , awilo, kofi olomide just to mention a few. ( actually I have forgotten most of them). These guys makes a lot of money and also collect several awards. They came to compere and perform on biggest stage in Nigeria such as state function both in Abuja and the entire region. Your events has not completed without playing congollese music as this period. Those who continued to support Nigeria music despite lack of patronages are media outlet and giants like Africa independent television, (AIT), and their staffs like baba keke ogungbe and Dee one. These guys started AIT jamz around this period specifically ’97 or 98 and they focus strictly on Nigerian music scene. They promotes all this artist we don’t want to see again. They help in shaping and rebranding them back tour consciousness. Despite all their efforts the congolesse music hover and tower in glory. Also another important brand is a ciga company called benson and hedges who recognizes Nigerian talents and organizes sow in differtnt cities and region across the country. With their effort the Nigerian music scenes stay afloat. Towards the end of 2000, there was a ray of hope by individual talent and strides coming from the direction of the p square group and their senior brother. This period ending (year 2000) also delivered the two face and plantation boys. The remedies were showing some stuff and the biggest then. Remedies are made up of idris tony tetuilla and one ogungbe in- law. Not also forgetiing the trios of “olufunmi maker” shiffi and his gangs. I cant recollect the name of their group. By conclusion, the naija musicians suffered very well during this period of 1990 to 2000, but with the collective efforts of the stakeholders who brain stormed every day , the provided the platform and deliver the right mixes of advice for naija music scene to take over between 2000 to 2010. |

y story goes thus. TEN years ago. 2009 precisely I met this guy thru one of my close pals in the poly(1999). He was my best friend room mates. It ends there. Fast forwarding in 2009 I lost my dad. He passed on. We invited both Islamic clerics( home and far away) to come over and conduct his burial ceremony. This guy was part of the entourage and they offered a modesty burial for my dad. Appreciation was in fullness. Few months later this particular guy again called me over phone, as we shared phone lines during the burial rites, and poured out his mind to me. He was to wed and needed a sum of 30K to paid for house rent as he does not have one yet. And he promised to pay back 3months in earnest. I was so happy to rendered the help in returns. ( GRATITUDE IS THE SIGN OF A NOBLE’ SOUL)……..(1) Note the 30k was equivalent to todays 90k. also the 30 k was half of my monthly salary as at then Back to the story, the 3months elapsed , waiting for the money no show. I called the guy he refused to pick my call. My nysc came calling I have no savings to fall back on to prosecute the financial demands. My only assurance were people I borrowed 6ok ( 3o k apiece) to show me love at my own time of needs. Just to pay back the money I loaned them oooo. The grateful one of the two, paid me instantly. While this my poly associate refused blatantly despite all my numerous texts and unreply called. One faithful day I decided to call and try my luck, so lucky I was, ecstasy, and the reply I got from the other end will continue to shape my philosophy about ungrateful soul. The wife picked and her response go thus: once you borrow someone a lump-some of money never desire to receive it back as the person is not desirous to do so, I should just focus on my God to pay me back in kinds and multiple fold. ( NO GRATITUDE FROM THE WICKED)…..(2) Meaning: the money u borrow my husband can never be repaid and look else where to get help or to GOD. I was shocked to my marrow. That Islamic clerics in coat too can do 419.( INJURIES MAY BE FORGIVEN BUT NOT FORGOTTEN)…..(3) Lesson 1. 2 3. |
shevon:sorry baba. |
Daslim180:This phenomenon of borrow money and refusal to return has long been with us so tay tay( long time things). I thought is a thing of the past like in the 60s, 70s, 80s all through to 90s. All this period are analagoue black days. To imagine that we still carry this audacity of nonsense to digital age is worrisome. |

Our tertiary education system require branding to meet modern age. 1. Promotion of lectures or professors in the academic suppose to be assessed based on the performance of student under them. How many student scores 60% , 70%, 80% etc. It doesn't make sense that u teach students and u are proud that they could not deliver for the schools exam. 2. Introducing feedback mechanism at the end of the session Where each student will have a way of scoring their tutors based on parameters like social interaction, academic relevance and utilities. Called it tutor performance score. I bet u all this yeye lecturer will sit up. If their relevance in the varsity system is dependent on this tutor performance score. With these measures and other the varsity tutor will think twice before transferring his or her aggression on their students. And the school will have opportunity to weed out cruelties in the varsity. Mind U for those students who have no biz at all in being in the varsity and are crying foul of injustice and so on. Their academic records with other lecturers will prove the innocence of those accused. |

chloride6:Do or crest ur own top ten nau. |
Salex007:Nice one |
With these show of social responsibilities, Social media is not a waste after all. Am proud too. The next thing is can we sustain this exercise cos it will be foolhardy to go back to dirtiness. |
lilianofentse:Allow d cabis to leave ur system first and think thru it carefully before u leap |
vaping cann.abis, I started thinking about him. The aroma of cabis will not kill some pple |
Not bad so far their parents have ceded consent. Little advice to d couple 1) I take Allah beg u guys::: Enjoy yaself for d next 3 years before thinking of bringing new embryo to naija. Do this with contraceptives. It will afford yamaya diseases in teenage pregnancy like Peripartum cardiomyopathy( heart failure), eliminate VVF , inadequate pelvis. If u follow D's little daddy advice , u gonna enjoy yaself till thy kingdom come. More blessing as u solemnized ur union. Good luck kids |
However, this is not a plain check to do as u like. This principle of early marriage will only work for those who sufficiently have the means and resources. The means to settle ur bill and responsibilities. For those who God hasn't blessed yet, keep working harder , Ur Jerusalem or breakthrough is nearer. |
Great article. Well researched. I must confess this micro- jumbo resonated well with me. In some areas I so wish its me that do justice to this write up. I appreciate ur concoction as in our general local parlance in 100%. My take away: 1) U know the subject matter very well as u said u have once experience the disadvantage of late marriage 2) The part that said ::: Men action gun is at best below 40 also tally with my advocacy 3) This advocacy must continue to be championed down down to the next generation. Ur ideas is unisexual as it is. 4) God bless u. cos u made my day. Richer. |
