CAB DRIVERS EMBARRASS KCEE IN NEW YORK

Limpopo star, Kcee, got the embarrassment of his life recently while on his American tour when cab drivers quizzed him on the fate of the Chibok girls who were kidnapped by Boko Haram in April. Kcee shared his experience during a press conference to unveil PMAN’s peace pet project tagged Lighting Up The Unity Flame, at PMAN office, Opebi, Lagos earlier in the week.

“I was thoroughly embarrassed in the US a couple of days ago while I was on your. In New York, the airport cab driver who took me to my hotel from the airport as soon as he discovered I was Nigerian asked, ‘have they found those girls.’ I was so embarrassed I had nothing to say. Again it happened in Los Angeles when another cab man asked me the same question. Can you imagine a cab man saying that? It was very embarrassing and I realised that whether we like it or not, where ever we find ourselves in the world, we must defend the image of our country but we have to start from the very source of this problems.”

According to the singer, it was a reflection of the fact that indeed a lot was wrong about the image of the country.

“That’s the reason I have come out to support the PMAN today as it unveils its pet project which is the lighting of the unity flame. Today it is Ebola, tomorrow it is Boko Haram and then its kidnapping. We all need to pull our resources together to make change, we have the capacity to do that.”

Initiated by PMAN, the train will travel around the country before climaxing on October 1 with a National Peace Concert at the Nnamdi Azikiwe National Stadium, Abuja on Independence Day October 1.

The event also witnessed the lighting of the PMAN flame of hope by the Chairman of the association’s Caretaker Committee, Kevin Lucciano Gabriel, who was assisted by Kcee, Daddy Showkey, Brownbread and Harrysong among a host of other artistes.

It was later he told me he was done with SQN and I couldn’t believe it!” According to him, he has no issues with Chuddy K’s desire to jump ship. However he says if Chuddy K wants to leave, it must be done legally. “He has all rights to say he is done but it has to be done within the ambits of the law; it has to be done legally because there is a binding contract. To be honest with you, I really don’t know what led to his decision to leave. He just ca...

Actress Mary Uranta’s allegation: My story By TONY OGAGA ERHARIEFE

In its travel advisory, the Goethe Institute had warned: ‘Pack an umbrella and a sweater.’ For no particular reason I had ignored the warning and I was about to learn the hard way. As soon as we touched down at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, Nairobi, for the 10 Cities project, sponsored by Goethe Institute, Nairobi and designed to capture the evolution of club culture and music in 10 cities across the world, I knew I was in a different environment. For one, the air smelt clean but the weather was cold, so cold I could feel it in my marrows. We had spent two brainstorming days that included power point presentations, in-depth discussions and debates. Now the organisers felt we should take a retreat and visit one of Kenya’s treasured resorts, Lake Naivisha, located in Nairobi’s countryside and elevated at 6000 feet above sea level. It promised to be an exciting experience as we had been informed that the journey would take us through the rift valley, which I had read about in the ...
