BREAKING!!! Wizkid To Face 11-Year Jail Term As Ugandan Court Issues Arrest Warrant

star-boy's superstar wizkid Ayo, has been issued an arrest warrant, by the ugandan court, for allegedly cancelling his show, which he was already paid for. Wizkid and management claimed that they were unable to fly from USA, to uganda for some reasons.

Over 25,000 Ugandans had paid for tickets in anticipation of Africa’s biggest musician of 2016.
Wizkid apologised, but fresh hearsay suggested that the ‘Ojuelegba’ singer may have cancelled the concert due to the recent crisis in Kasese District, Uganda. MTV
Organisers of the event, Face TV, lodged a criminal complaint against Wizkid and his manager vide Case No. 875 of 2016 on charges of:

1. Obtaining money by false pretences, which carries a maximum sentence of five years

2. Cheating, which carries three years

3. Conspiracy to defraud which also carries a maximum of three years.

The court documents further reveal that substantial expenses in booking and re-booking flights, hotel, venue, advertising and promotions for the concert grossed over $300,000 (over N144m).
Wizkid, who is presently tending to health issues in the US, and his manager, Sunday Are, have been issued an arrest warrant to be produced in court on or before January 16, 2017.

On December 9, the ‘Ojuelegba’ singer announced via Twitter he’s cancelled his homecoming concert due to health reasons.

‘I’ve been on the road for 2 years touring and doing what I love without a break,’ he said. ‘And now it’s all catching up on me.’

The Starboy homecoming concert was planned to take place at Eko Convention

Nigeria's Ayo Jay makes it to New York Times list of Best Songs of 2016

It is no doubt that the spot light has been on Nigerian music, and African

music in general. Ayoola Ogundeyi Jr., or ‘Ayo Jay’ as he is widely known is an exceptionally talented and promising young singer and song writer. few days ago ayo jays had a song of his "Your Number" listed by the New York Times as one of the best songs of 2016. this really is a big one for hima and for nigerian music as a hole it shows that we are been recognised outside. shout out to you bro.

LOLLL.......

Funny just saw this hilarious photo, but seriously most of our Nigerian politicians if not all, need to be school, because it is obvious they don't know what they are doing.

WIZKID GETS NOMINATED FOR GRAMMY AWARDS

Talented Nigerian music export and Star Boy Music Worldwide act, Wizkid, has been tagged in the prestigious Grammy Awards nominees list for his role in Drake’s hit single “One Dance”. The track, which also features Kyla, is off Drake’s award winning album “Views” which stood out as one of the best albums released in 2016. Drake’s album, in which Wizkid appeared, made the highly coveted “Album of the year” category, competing against other award winning artistes like Adele, Beyonce, and Justin Bieber. Wizkid has had a tremendous year with top notch awards credited to him. Worthy of mentions are his Bill Board appearance as the first Nigerian to emerge on that list, MTV Europe Music Awards (Best African Act), 2016 MAMA awards (Best African Act), 2016 MOBO Awards, AFRIMA awards, the Headies (Nomination), and just recently, his appearance on the Grammy Awards among others. Wizkid’s international prominence started when his Ojuelegba hit single had American rapper Drake and English rapper with Nigerian descent, Skepta, on the remix.
